The art direction alone mogs the DS games into oblivion and it also has dramatically better gameplay, more interesting world & lore, and much better boss design.

Take that cringe shit back to tiktok.

Red Dead Redemption 2 is the most overrated video game of all time. The game is not just woke DEI slop, it also has the highest input lag in triple-A history. The gameplay feels inferior solely because of the slow and sluggish animations. You're basically watching a movie where you occasionally press two buttons every half hour or so.

>>715465689 (OP)
rollslopware is shit

>>715467014
Zelda 1 is pretty much the prototype for the rest of the series. It established the basic concepts, but every game in the series after it has done those concepts way better. The combat is incredibly simple and offers little challenge once you get the basics down. Zelda 2 stands on it's own with a unique gameplay style that still manages to be fun and challenging by it's own right. It also has a more detailed world with better choreographed secrets. Though I must admit that when I first played Zelda 2 I didn't like it since it felt like a huge departure from the first game (and it was too hard for young me), but it eventually grew on me.

ALttP feels very dated and cramped and I liked OoT, MM, WW, TP all much more.
MMX1-4 are all great - that is including 3.
MMZXA may be my favorite MM game and in my top 2 metroidvanias.
Fallout 1 doesnt hold up in the slightest.
Disco Elysium didnt feel nearly as commie/preachy as /v/ makes it out to be
Mafia 1 is actual garbage in the current year and even if you dont like movieslop you may like watching the cutscenes more than playing it.
Sonic heroes was abysmal and shadow 2005 is much better (less terrible).
GTA IV was good.
Mario has had 0 appeal as a franchise (I mean the universe/lore, not counting gameplay) since the previous century and it feels like japanese mickey mouse.
MGS5 was the most fun I had in an open world although it may be due to personal feelings.

>>715466107
There is no other creature collector game where you can play against other people and not have it be a total shitshow except Temtem which is dead and a lot more annoying to learn as a result.

>>715466178
This, but that mentality is why I believe ffrk got taken away, the core game was just enough, and enough players weren't incentivized enough to pay for pulls at any given event. I'd gladly pay $80 today for a non-gacha version

>>715467627
Fair enough.

Dragon age insquisition is a good game and it fully deserved its goty award. People who hate it never played it and keep on spamming sera pics as if not having plastic bimbos like in their gachas is automatically a sign of good quality.

Everyone shits on FNAF and slender but Outlast did by far the most damage to horror games and set the genre back by about a decade.

Doctor Robotnik's Ring Racers is the single best Kart Racer ever made. SRB2K is okay, but it's ultimately just Mario Kart with modding support, and Mario Kart sucks.

Jannies should agressively update the word filter to target buzzwords.

Counter Strike sucks. Having to stand still to aim properly is a garbage mechanic which enforces one-tap peek encounters and memorizing hold positions. Being forced to coordinate with angry anti-social strangers is not fun. Getting one-shot 3 frames after an enemy appears and having to wait in spectator until the next round is not fun and you will learn nothing from it as a new player. You cannot learn how to play the game properly from practicing in casual because the larger team sizes and simplified economy make it a completely different game which favors brute force rushes over anything else. You must watch youtube tutorials on the meta grenade throws and practice walking around empty maps while moving your crosshair the right way for 20 hours before you're allowed to even play the game. It only gets worse when you get good enough to realize how unfun actually playing the game properly is.

>>715468526
I'll raise a similar point. Coomer shit is killing gameplay progression/betterment in gachashit It's catering to shitters who don't actually want to play video games. The gachashit developer never has to try to make a good game they can just shit tits on a plate and the faggots will continue to support it despite it being the worse most subhuman type of gameplay imaginable.

Armstrong is actually a pretty disappointing final boss if you ignore the admittedly top tier cutscenes surrounding him and focus only on the gameplay of his fight. In fact most other MGR bosses suffer from this except Monsoon who's actually pretty fun to fight (Sundowner is also fun but his health is too low so you kill him too soon)

>>715468915

Zelda is the most basic bitch game franchise ever and doesn't deserve the attention it gets both on and off of /v/.

Current Diablo 3 is a sleeper gem. Can drop in and play however you like between story/actual RPG mode and minmax grindfag mode with hardcore and extra shit to augment it without 4's gay-ass everything and 2/1's antiquities.

Fighting games have never been good and the only people that care for them are e-hoodrats who had too safe/secluded an upbringing to partake in actual gangbanger type shit.

Half Life 1 still low-diff's every other FPS in existence.

There isn't a single RTS outside of the Total War franchise that's worth its install size.

Platinum has missed more than they've hit and nothing of value would be lost if they just switched gears and made anime from now on instead of games.

>>715469240
New generation missed the JRPG era and grew up on GaaS e-sports shooters and social media grifting as their main source of entertainment. Normalfag virtue signaling, e-celeb gossip, and "aura farming" is their culture. They do not understand the concept of finding your own fun since everything is delivered to them by an algorithm. They mock anything with niche appeal as they see no reason to put effort into searching for value in something. Why would they have to when entertainment is brought to them for free without the need to think or act?

KOTOR is rock bottom casualized XBOXRPG at its worst with a pathetic party size, combat that plays itself, and concessions to consolefags like a behind the back camera and focus on combat animations so it can larp as an action game. Children raised on KOTOR go on to play Mass Effect, and then go on to become homosexuals. Play a real CRPG.

>>715467627
>Zelda 2 stands on it's own with a unique gameplay style
It's a generic Castlevania clone and a bad one at that. Also being different doesn't make something better and if you think it does then all that means is you don't actually like the series and thus your opinion is pointless

MMOs were never good

>>715465689 (OP)
make /v/ seethe? ... i like ponies

>>715467535
That's a normal opinion. So heres my actual one.

RDR2 is great in alot of ways. It's as close as someone can get to getting a slice of life in a genuine late 19th century setting without it being a parody or going extra for entertainments sake. The writing and characters are great, the gunplay satisfying, the activities you can do great, just alot of great things.

For the first playthrough. Second playthrough I'll steam out before the mission that get's you to Guarma because at that point the story just becomes dreary.

It's still a marvel of a game and I'm glad it exists and that I played it. Makes me with one of these days Rockstar stops teasing and does a proper 1920s Prohibition setting.

Or hell since they're UK, English Crime during the swinging 60s.

/v/ really did like Undertale when it was first released.

>>715469526
>I remember when /v/ loved New Vegas and still do myself
/v/ never stopped loving New Vegas and neither do most Bethesdafags. It's not FNV that a portion of /v/ hates, it's New Vegas fans. Because they are genuinely insane and rabid and will sperg out in your thread and derail the conversation. Don't get me wrong, there are bethesda spergs, but FNV spergs are on another entire level that they have caused entire civil wars. Don't get me started on the fact the "What do they eat?" Meme by seething FNV fags became so prevalent people forgot it was about Fallout.

>>715469863
Nah. The fact that it's so easy is a flaw but it (and 2) has a great atmosphere and the characters plus stories are really great. The setting also makes it unique and thus worthy of existing

>>715470136
I still like Undertale and I like Deltarune. Most of the time you see mass criticism against popular games here simply because they're popular and people with fanboy mentality who haven't played them see them as a threat to their niche.

AI has amazing potential to add so much depth and immerson into games. The AAA companies could impliment an LLM in their games maybe one day but they will fuck it up and possibly charge you a subscription for it. Indies will be too proud to use AI, or at least admit to it so they don't get lynched because all the "support the artist!" types would dogpile on you faster than calling a tranny "he"

>>715468207
How so? And all the games or the second one since that one wasn't as well received as the first one.

As for what hurt Horror vidya I'd say it was Resident evil 5 and 6, and the crappy Silent Hill sequels. AAA Horror failed in the late 2000s which caused people to embrace indie horror.

On the upside, there's alot of good indie horror out there, not even mainstream.

Not at all; I'm one of the very few who create hate threads against this game, and even the mods hate me for it. This game is beloved everywhere, including /v/. No matter where I go, I see people praising the game in the highest tones. You will barely find a critical comment about that game. I don't know why you trannies pretend hating this game is normal. It's absolutely not, and I'm in the minority.

I think it's generally agreed upon that if your game has cute girls in it you are morally obligated to show them naked. It's just a question as to why this hasn't been adopted as a standard yet.

It is incredibly easy to trigger NV fans. Literal (You) factory from just saying that you liked a Bethesda game in the least confrontational manner still gets seething replies.

So they come here, play the part with each other, and there ya go.

Also on top of that legitimate mentally ill people that shouldn't be typing on a computer.

Outside of /v/, most people don't care about resolution, screen size, or frame rate.

Gacha games are fine to discuss on /v/ as long as the gacha in question has required player input for the actual "gameplay" sections, and absolutely no auto-play mode.
If your gacha has an auto-play mode, it is not a videogame.
>b-but gambl--
I don't give a fuck. I've seen faggots throw $2000 at a fucking SPORTS game I've seen people spend $2000 on train simulator DLC. It's not 'gacha' that makes retards spend money, it's a lack of personal control. The method by which they throw their money away is irrelevant, be it "microtransactions", "dlc", or "gacha".

It doesn't help that there's countless twitter accounts, tiktok accounts, and youtube cannels dedicated to regurgitating "the funnies" people found on 4chan, so the average zoomer sees this as the accepted behavior.

You think this because you replayed the fight on your old savefile and found out he melts to an upgraded murasama, and there's no way to reduce its power.
Fun fact: the first time you fight him he breaks your upgraded cool sword and you're forced to use a really shitty basic version of the unlockable murasama, and that's what makes his fight long and fun.
Also the reason people struggled on the leg cutting, you are handed a sword with 4 seconds of total blade mode which removes all your extra safety time.
If you want to fight him for real you need a new savefile. If you want to fight him again after that, you need to keep sam's sword at all 0s.

The belief that Japanese developers can do no wrong because of their history of creating great games is, by far, the biggest cop-out in history, and the term "blinded by nostalgia" couldn't be more apt. Japanese video game developers are in their woke slop era. All of the latest Capcom games were mediocre at best, and even that is generous.People fail to realize that these games have nothing to do with their predecessors besides the games themselves.

>>715471612
it's funny because even though there are other cringe groups, "Furries" are still the easiest, low common denominator "them" that can still garter clicks. Beyond remembering, who talks about bronies anymore? Or weeabos? Or hell even "Nerds and Dorks" of the pre 21st century?

Nope. Furries are Internet versions of Jews. No matter what era, current events, or pandemic going on in any point of history, someone's gonna blame the Furry/Jew, because it's just THAT easy.

DaS2 is the best in the souls series
DMC4 is better than 3
Soul Calibur 4 is the best fighting game

Outlast took what Amnesia did and stripped out all the actual gameplay in favor of a "narrative driven" haunted house ride. I dont hate it, and yes AAA horror does share some of the blame but Outlast popularized the horror walking sim which became the default setting for AA and indie horror from that point forward. I know it may seem silly now but the concept of "helpess protagonist who runs and hides from monsters" became such an oppressive trope that from around 2013-2017 people would actually get mad at any horror game that wasn't an Outlast clone. I still remember people complaining about the Re7 reveal because it had combat.

The "asshole of the internet" title has always been our achilles heel. It attracts a crowd of people who come here looking for le epic maymays and a consequence free playground to shitpost in. Boards like /b/, /s4s/ and /trash/ have been breeding grounds for abysmal sub-communities centered around creating and promoting garbage content for the purpose of bewildering and annoying everyone around them. The more attention that content gets, the more outsiders it draws to the site who come here looking for, the more those sub-communities grow to overtake the board culture. Eventually it grows to overpower our gatekeeping efforts and the undergound hobby discussion part of the community dies since it can't compete with the more popular shitpost spam communities which never respected the board topic.

this means that thief is a better immsim than deus ex, which isnt true (assuming system shock is the gold standard for an immsim, which you seem to be implying)

its definitely an ill-defined genre, and many games (bioshock) get the label slapped onto them despite not adhering to even the most basic tenants of the genre

but if thief is also a good example of an immsim, because its a satisfying roleplaying simulation of the thief fantasy, then so is dishonored for creating a satisfying simulation of the supernatural assassin fantasy.

>>715473320
The mods absolutely could be doing more to help curb it. Usually only the OP gets banned for spamming off-topic threads. Everyone sees them as free real-estate to shitpost without consequence. Thus we've bred a sub-community that lurks for off-topic threads to go wild in. If it became the standard to ban everyone in an off-topic thread and not just the OP, people would be less likely to give them attention. We've also had a great deal of damage done by the various board splits pushing real video game topics off the board. Yes, I agree that the circlejerk permanent generals that far outlive the game's on-topic discussion lifetime is a bad thing. But the containment board solution is not the only or best solution just because it was the first one we tried. Some of those generals anchoring themselves on /v/ would have also had the effect of increasing the vidya to not-vidya ratio, and they're obsessive persistence would have acted as gatekeeping against off-topic spam threads. I feel sometimes the moderation here is more consistently active against real video game topics than off-topic social garbage.

Hardcore guro sure, but at this point I don't think loli repels undesirables as it ends up being used more as "bait" for discussions. Ironically I'm almost certain shota stuff works better as a repellant than loli cause so few people would care about the former in comparison

I'd agree with that. It's hard to read /v/ nowadays because most posts come off like anons are just jaded cynics yearning for their childhood and unwilling to give anything new a fair chance. I'm completely confident many old games that get praised on here would be shit on if they released today.

People on /v/ also act like they're just being real and that it's the only place where people give actual criticism but anons are absolutely dogshit critics. Part of being a good critic is being able to tell what something does well or at least point out ideas you liked and how they could be improved but /v/irgins are usually incapable of doing that without, at best, turning it into a backhanded insult. As a result, this place is merely the opposite end of fanboyism and just as dull.

I don't get the seething over FOTM games. Sure, you shouldn't buy it just because it's currently popular but people act like every game has to be a timeless classic that'll be lauded and discussed for years or give you hundreds of hours of playtime or else it's dogshit. I've already fucking played all the classics that interest me. If you actually like video games then you've probably played plenty of games that were fun for a playthrough and decent enough even if they wouldn't be on the top of your recommendations list or something you'll ever play again. Those timeless classics were also discovered because people actually gave new games a chance in the first place.

>Niggas make it their entire personality
Shrugging it off and letting them do whatever is what got us here. They got into every company's HR, every educational institution, they can fucking coerce the field of medicine to change facts to suit their feelings.

You need to grow up, man, I don't know how else to tell you this.

The world you're describing to me in your post is not one I recognise at all.

Halo 5 has the top 3 best multiplayer suites in the franchise, and thrust, hover, and slide are good additions that should have all been kept for infinite, instead of or in addition to sprint and clamber

transgender shit is a boogieman nonissue, nobody on 4chan before like 2012 gave a shit about them, anons could mention being trans and they only got the same amount of playful shitposting anybody posting about themselves got

Super Mario Sunshine is good, better then 64 certainly, since Mario at least controls responsively and the levels make good use of being sandboxes

Pokemon XY is good, and a Z version that expanded on the AZ plot and gave it a battle frontier would easily be the best game in the series. Lysandre is one of the best main villains, at least as he is written in Y version, even if Team Flare as a whole sucks

Now that Fallout and the PS2 have been mentioned via your image, I can say my take. Fallout Brotherhood of Steel for the PS2 is a good game, I enjoyed it very much so, and I wish that the sequel they were planning would have come to fruition. I like to consider it as canon because it scratched the itch I'd had for a while to see a legitimate successor to The Master's Army in the series. Black Mountain doesn't count, and neither do the Super Duper Mutants from 2, or that band of Mutants in Tactics because I never played Tactics. Having Slipknot on the soundtrack was weird, but I liked it - and I think I would prefer a Fallout continuity where, while technology may not have progressed much from the 50's, society and culture did, and music (White people music) evolved from Doo Wop and Golden Oldies into heavier rock and eventually metal and Nu-Metal. The Lone Star Wasteland would've kicked major ass had they continued exploring it. I believe that The West, East, Midwest, and Southern portions of the map should have their own stories and battles and lore with little overlap. Also, they need to have a special BB Gun variant in every game, I love doing BB Gun runs in every Fallout that will allow me to, and if I can't, I mod one in to do so. Assaultron Curie owes me sex, that's not an opinion that I believe /v/ would hate me for, I just felt like mentioning it.

I like soulsborne and soulslike games. Light exploration and simple combat mechanics are good, first playthroughs are hard but memorable and once you know everyone's moveset NG+ becomes a fun victory lap where you can respec and try another build to change things up.
I wish there were more replayability in these games bc once you dodge\parry\backstep everything thrown at you challenge kind of evaporates, which is why it's called rollslop but still I think these are good vidya.
Also I think it's dumb to compare souls to character action games, the difference is so huge it's retarded to even think of it .

>>715483092
Have you seen Doll's Nest

>>715483092

I unironically believe that morrowind has the best way of handling spells, combat, and lock picking and if they hadn't fucked up the way pickpocketing word it would of been just as good.

Victims of the times, if I had to guess. The West has been boiling decades now. The financial crash of 2008, growing wealth disparity, the collapse of any middle-ground between political ideals, erasure of the middle class and social media have been cooking Western brains in their skulls. Everyone is tired, anxious, fed-up and it feels like we're marching towards the edge with no signs of slowing down, so everyone's carrying this ever-increasing burden on their backs. Everyone is convinced that someone with more power than them is ruining the things they enjoy, and they're right, but they're too busy fighting the wrong people.

You'd think everyone here would be class conscious by now given how everyone is subconsciously aware that rich cunts like Bobby Kotick or Corporate monopolies and powerhouses make shit decisions and shit games, whereas a labour of love between some small group of friends becomes one of the all-time classics of video game history.

But no, it's the trannies or whatever.

They'll immediately disparage you and call you a retard when they clearly didn't even understand what you were trying to say or they'll start attacking you out of nowhere when you thought you were just having a polite conversation.

This is also insufferable. It's like console wars except for every game and it sucks. You still can't talk about Disco Elysium without a 150 post minimum argument about muh gommunists, muh anti-nazi bias. Rogue Trader still gets that one fucktard with the cuck fetish who incessantly talks about Owlcat cucking him. Fallout threads are a wasteland. I don't even like Nintendo or Sony games but it's a shame how much garbage genuine fans put up with in those threads. Most of the games I currently play or like talking about don't get threads at all. It's all very gay.

Plenty of films and books are written for morons to be able to follow though. Plenty of games are very hard for the average person to get into or understand. I don't understand why you think films or books are special in that regard.

>>715483754

Never going to happen, ever, the hooks are in too deep. Sorry, but the They won hundreds if not thousands of years ago, and this is all just dominos toppling.

I have never seen a person who hates Starfield come to that conclusion by playing the game himself, it's always just parroting.

>>715483561
>and yet somehow anons felt way more normal and sociable back then.
This jaded era happened because people are spending more time on the internet, judging one another for the things they like and guess what? most people are insecure. So in return, most of them developed this no fun allowed mindset where you can't enjoy anything but generally approved things. And if they want to express enjoyment about controversial things, they have to make it a hot take or post that same painting of a man standing in a sitting crowd, you know the one.

Games thrive on gameplay first. You can't risk making a game with bad gameplay unless you're willing to spend so much effort on the other aspects and at that point, why is it a video game then?
>>715484034
Less accessibility can fall under bad design. The old version of Dwarf Fortress had a botched UI and interface, an unnecessary entry barrier that only invites those who are willing to spend an ungodly amount of time just to get the hang of the basics.

>>715483976
After about 100 hours, everyone comes to hate Starfield, and that's the worst insult you can give to a Bethesda title because they should keep you coming back for more playthroughs. Starfield managed to stifle that due to its horrible levelling system and lack of meaningful handcrafted environments which don't allow for RP/immersion. This is coming from a Bethesda fanboy.

Games like that usually get the only worthwhile threads the once in a blue moon they're discussed because the average retard here doesn't know anything about them and they aren't frequent enough to have dedicated schizos. Even then though, shitposters have adapted by just calling people shills over and over for positively discussing any game at all.

This is another point that I wanted to talk about. Slop has been used and assoicated to video games first before the other mediums, it even started on /ck/ as goyslop and found its way here eventually.

What I wanted to say is: Why is it that gamers are the most entitled ones about the quality of their medium? When film snobs have less time caring about Superman 2025 for example. They don't act like it's a direct insult to their core being of existence.

I've played it on release and dropped it somewhere in the middle of mainquest. Game felt undercooked, space combat felt worse than 90-s space dogfight sims and the writing and characters are uninspired and unengaging. Also at any given moment I felt no challenge at all, game never made me think of what gear to pick and which skills do I level up.
I am sure it got better in terms of gameplay with patches but It won't fix the shitty quest writing and these games just aren't worth it without a good story.

Fallout 76 is the best game in the Fallout Franchise up to this point and possibly all time.
There I said it.
Reasons:
>Best Map
>greatest gunplay even better than NV and Starfield
>Pets and other stuff Mounts are very likely coming out in a future update
>Expeditions to DLC areas in FO3 and more
>OG Main Story forces you to scavenge the wasteland instead of going from point A to B.
>Only downsides are Fallout 1st and the Atomic Shop which you really don't need at all if you don't intend to hoard items/junk also private servers

Yeah? That doesn't prevent them from being inaccessible especially compared to some hollywood blockbuster or YA novel. You're not refuting my point at all or even really engaging with it unless you're next going to say that any game that's hard to get into is poorly designed. At which point, save yourself the effort because I'm going to assume you're a troll and stop replying.

Most games are pretty okay and even the ones with annoying writing and subpar gameplay are still playable if your standards aren't too high and looking for 10/10 experiences

Moot-era jannies would do that and more proactively fostered board culture via public bans with messages.

I get that is fun to say nigger and all, but oldfags said nigger to make fun of the absurdity of people claiming that only certain people being allowed to say it was somehow less racist.

Original Final Fantasy 7 is unambiguously worse than the remake series, even with the retarded time jannie stuff. It is only better or frankly even significantly above average with nostalgia glasses and a lot of "good for it's time" qualifiers.

>>715484226
Still, games with bad UIs but deep gameplay are kino and gamers who play them got good taste.
Same goes for a lot of high skill floor games and hidden gems

>>715465689 (OP)
This new era of accessibility in fighting games bringing in a bunch of low level players in is unironically the best thing for long time mid-level players who want to be rewarded for the time they put in.

CoD is legitimately the most polished and fun arcade FPS out there, every year.
AC Shadows though… just why? It’s the worst AC (which is saying a lot) and far and away the worst samurai game in the past 20 years. I genuinely cannot think of any one that’s worse but I’m sure they’re out there. The one and only reason to ever play the game is because you’re an affluent white liberal looking to be humiliated.

When I used to work mall security there was this bitch there with the absolute shittiest Wonder woman tattoo squarely on her like neck and chest which is mayne the worst spot to put that other than face. Trashy had 5 half black kids with I assumed more than one nog and the main baby daddy im pretty sure had actual special needs and only came in the mall to get into domestic disturbances with her. Soent her days living out of local hotels and fueding with the owners because her family clearly brought bed bugs into the building. Shes dead now.

I prefer overworlds to open worlds for large settings. Unless the open world genuinely has content that makes the travel interesting, most of the time overworlds just abstract the tedium of traveling since after enough time, the world loses it's luster and I just beeline to the next objective anyway. Otherwise I think open worlds can benefit from making fast travel turn into a Fallout 1 & 2 esque travel system with random encounters and other dangers like KCD does, mostly to not make it a zero-consequence teleport.

The blame for ruining the site lies far more on discord raids looking to deliberately undermine the edgy and fun place than people coming here naturally to post because it was edgy and fun.

>>715485891
Speaking about that, slop is the most fucking misused term on this whole site. It's one thing to call a game you don't like crap, shit, garbage or whatever. Slop, on the other hand, while not as harsh of a word by itself, has a completely different connotation altogether: it's refers to something that's mass produced, disposable, low effort. No matter how much you dislike something like Planescape Torment, you can't just call it slop, that's retarded.

>>715487278
I don't think it's just the election, the entire internet turned into this massive cultural psychopath battle royale where everyone is constantly accused of being a shill of the other side
I can excuse the subhuman dwellers of 4chan, but on Reddit, on forums, hell even within gaming companies themselves the same exact /pol/brained shill obsession has spread like a nuclear cancer, and people constantly shuffle around just to shittalk their enemies where they feel they're allowed to.

>I can excuse the subhuman dwellers of 4chan
After the Chicken Jockey incident what I discovered is that Twitter is what everyone thinks 4chan is. Because when someone posts something racist here, unless it's /pol/ there's always a certain level of irony. Calling someone a nigger here is more calling them ignorant or annoying rather than the suspicion of them being black. On Twitter though? They're blatantly racist. As in Jim Crow racist. They'll bluntly and proudly declare that they want people who aren't their race to die. Go on black Twitter? They're clamoring for a black ethnostate. I saw a post from a woman who said something to the effect of "all men should be put in jail at the age of 13 until they earn their way out."

4chan is the internet hate machine? Because Twitter makes most of the people here look like bitches. Which is impressive because they put their actual faces on it

I used to think differently until I tried Limbus Company a few weeks ago. I've tried Uma and BA and they just don't give me the same feeling I get with LC. Apparently you're supposed to reroll "seeds" into accounts which is fucking nutty to me.

Gacha is probably the best subgenre on the market and the the only live service design that can consistently deliver because the cutthroat nature of the market.
It is ultimately cheaper than a lot of other monetization schemes because most of them are geared toward offering low spenders a lot of mileage.

>>715492164
This is a fair point, and I agree. On one hand you get posters who seethe at the mere sight of anything either hot or related to anime, on the other you get threads like the Azur Lane ones who are nothing more than art spam with shitty resolution I might add, embarrassing ERPing and ESLs, sometimes both. I think a middle ground is fine.

This is going to sound like a schizo rant but I swear it's mostly generational divide and contrarianism. Back in the 90s when people were clutching their pearls at Mortal Kombat and the 00s when Jack Thompson was doing his stupid shit, everyone laughed. In fact games got even more degenerate in response because the sheer controversy got games attention. Everyone uses DoA Xtreme Volleyball as an example of a coomer game but do you remember X-Blade? Hell Ninja Gaiden on PS3 used the Dualshock motion control to make tits jiggle as a selling point.

But then you reached a zenith in the 10s and so things had to swing in the other direction. Anita Sarkeesian started her shit in 2012. That's 13 years ago. More than a decade for all the social justice shit to take root. What's more video games are way more mainstream now. It's not a thing for kids and teenagers, a large percentage of adults now have it. So now we're on the other end where you get people saying

>Well there's levels to it you see. There's certain games that are safe to like on /v/, and certain games that aren't

Wow you are so cool anon

Best three consoles are the Genesis, PS1, and NES. Genesis is the best console of all time. Zelda like adventure games are dull.

Metriodvanias have a lot of factors holding them back from being good. You need to have the maps be backtrackable, but the best backtrackable maps are ones that give the least amount of challenge. You make the maps challenging with the intention to backtrack through them and now it become tedious. It's why linear level based games are simply better.

Action RPGs aren't RPGs.

It literally showed people will repeatedly buy and play the same game on the same engine over and over and who's only additions could just be small micro transactions that they literally introduced.

No one actually gave a shit about trannies until 2016 when the trump fags got kicked off of reddit and began infesting this site. We made fun of trannies but we lived rent free in their heads not the other way around. Anyone who says otherwise is a revisionist.

My position has always been that the well has been thoroughly poisoned already and there at least has to have a cooldown period until their representations can be taken in good faith. But that will never happen so every ideologue just plays the endurance game with the general public.

I mostly notice that some threads have OBVIOUS people that's not really from /v/ and hate this place.
It's like night and day difference if you go and discuss and talk in a thread vs some other threads.

And I don't care what anyone says, games that is considered "Reddit" nearly always have those posters in them.
It's also a bit like how to easily spot shills, they always go with the "this game BTFO /v/ " shtick and outright just say how much they hate /v/.

>>715485441
MTG is FUNDAMENTALLY a better card game mechanically than YGO but looking at the state of both, I wouldn't choose any to play at al or recommend someone to. I say this as someone who actually used to co-own own a hobby shop. Ergo, MTG is not a better game than YGO, they're both fucking trash of a different variety. I'd rather people play Keyforge or Netrunner nowadays.

It's always some retarded thinly veiled political rant thread like GG threads or Expedition 33 threads.

>>715497368
You mean when gamergate was in full swing? They tried to gatekeep it by banning discussion trust me.

/v/ was always trash when it came to discussing vidya but it used to be fun to go off topic and sometimes still is but the nu-mods want /v/ to work like a fucking subreddit and nuke anything that gets off topic and that has contributed significantly to the enshitification of the board.
There was this thread a year or so back where the OP used a pic of Columbo to start the thread and the discussion almost immediately became about Columbo. This was one of the best /v/ threads I had seen in years but then the mods pruned it after a hundred replies for being “off topic”. That was my breaking point honestly.
This goes for pretty much all of 4chan, the best threads are always the off topic ones and the nu-mods are fags for being so strict about staying on topic.

>>715497906
Just go to /tv/ and make a columbo thread instead of trying to turn this place into /b/-lite

You illiterate faggot did you not read what I said? 4chan is best when off topic. Taking it somewhere on topic defeats the point!
Go to reddit if being on topic is so sacred to you.

Nintendo is the scummiest video game company ever, and probably scummiest company in general. They use influential franchises and nostalgia to brainwash kids into growing attached to them, and they overprice all their games and products so their little piggies can buy the next bing bing wahoo for $100 plus tax. We're already seeing the consequences of this with the whole "onions beta redditor manchild" meme that's become associated with modern Nintendo fans in recent years. Say what you will about EA and activision, but atleast they don't brainwash impressionable young children to grow attached to them, and create retarded manchildren to be their white knights like shitendo does. They also take down fangames, and oppose anything made by fans, so that's another reason to hate them.
