Why do people pretend to play daioujou? Like obviously touhou is the most popular 4chan shmup, regardless of whether the bulk of people here have ever played it, because even if it's a small percentage it still dwarfs everything else here due to having a pastebin on the website for like 15+ years with all the games. That and people have completely forgotten stuff like hellsinker (which isn't really that scary, just play fossilmaiden) and blue revolver and death smiles and so on, which have been pretty popular here for ages. Daioujou is an excellent game, and actually beating it for real will likely completely and utterly change your perception of video games, but I very much doubt more than 0.01% of the board has actually done that, even though I think it's very approachable. (DaiOuJou Rinne Tensei is available on the Japanese storefronts for PS4 and Switch btw, which is one of the greatest ports ever made, and it's very easy to purchase in like 5 minutes by just buying a card off play-asia)

Wtf i like reddit now

why are we pretending that describing something as "reddit" is insulting in the current state of the Internet?

New vegas was highest rated game for years on here until reddit flooded this place.

>>724532357
red dead 2 no but the story in TLAU1 was good even if it was rip-off of the road. It's not a WARPG though.

>>724532892

>>724531656
i'm pretty sure it's gacha for the nerd types at least
i graduated college a few years ago and gacha shit was all over

>>724532938
New Vegas is a goon expat game. Sawyer himself is an SA regular. It's current perception is just desserts for their insular and retarded behavior over the years.

>>724532938
unironically Gamergate destroyed the reputation of all wrpg developers on /v/. just post their twitter posts and instant dislike.

>>724532934
Ive been here since 2008. In 2010 this place was great, but reddit was peak and better. 2014 no contest as reddit got worse but this place fell off a cliff. 2017 was QAnon and migatard extreme. 2021 both were even. Since 2024 Reddit is now going through its own QAnon gamergate retardation. After a decade and a half the insult finally works but for 15 years only sad incel tourists used it.

>You actually need autism to grind out runs thousands of times
Daioujou is not that hard to 1-all. Even being shitty at the genre it'll take less time than beating 1 jrpg and it'll be a lot more interesting than reading about how emo Cloud is. There's nothing autistic about taking a genuine interest in your hobbies and learning how to do something new.

different anon but dude intrinsic motivation isn't autism specific. Any normie can decide "ok i wanna beat it this is my goal now" and grind easily. It would actually be harder with autism/adhd to stick to it cause it's an rng check.

>>724533449
>doing the same boring bullshit
But it's not the same, because you're getting better at it. This is the foundation of all video games. Think about what you're saying. Is playing pacman for a new high score autistic? This is literally what video games really is. You're openly admitting you don't like video games and maligning people who do. It's just silly.

>>724533564
>Any normie can decide "ok i wanna beat it this is my goal now" and grind easily.
That's extrinsic motivation. And yes normalfags would love shmups if beating them gave you clout or whatever.

>>724533630
it's not extrinsic if it's self decided?

>>724533602
>But it's not the same, because you're getting better at it.
You learning the exact pattern some gook designed for you is not the game changing, it's you getting more mindbroken.

ntsa but you are saying "you don't like movies if you don't like train's arrival" What was novel then is boring now. Classic arcades aged poorly in regards to their replayability.

>>724533630
Extrinsic motivation would be like unlocking a new hat by doing to some achievement. Beating a game is not that, people do it for the challenge and enjoyment that comes from learning. These are entirely internal motivations.

>>724533783
Nobody actually finds playing something so banal fun. It's all about getting the clear, like a gambling addict.

Games don't age. During gen 6 a new crowd simply adopted games that were more interested in movies than video games. And even then stuff like geometry wars and all those M2 ports were popular. But the newfags here are so new they were probably like 10 years old when xbox came out and don't even remember that much and are just nostalgic for oblivion and halo. So even on the newest most cancerous platform we have people selectively remembering its most cancerous qualities. And because of this the entire video game industry is collapsing. The huge mountain of shit they've built up is toppling over because it's built on not-video games. And now you can stand around and wonder why everything sucks and repeat the same mistakes or fix the problem and play a real video game finally. As the indie scene grows bigger and bigger to fill the power gaps it will happen with or without you.

>>724533983
bitch i've been there since beginning and i can't unironically play pacman anymore when fucking youtube shorts are more interesting. Sure, games don't "age", culture fucking grows, expectations rise etc etc. Stop being a retard please. Sure pacman was a 10/10 games alright, but now i want a 34/10 game.

>It's all about getting the clear
Oh no, shmups are unironically fascinating and the really good ones have absolutely immaculate game design. Like even when you've been hammering at a difficult 1CC or high score for ages and the pressure is mounting and you just want to be done with it, I find myself soon wanting to revisit the game and improve some more after a break. Like games I've beaten I've still picked back up if i truly really like them, I always have a blast playing doj, mars matrix, futari, etc. I think this is sort of where touhou games can leave a bad impression, because they are definitely more spectacle driven, like undertale, but still pretty good nonetheless. In fact, the first time I played undertale I was like "my god, this is just touhou with padding".

>Your perception was simply wrong. And your perception can be wrong now, too.
this is a remarkably shallow understanding of reality. let me ctrl+v my last response to someone (probably you) who said "games don't age".

>Everything ages, nothing is free from the tides of time. Everything crumbles to dust in the end.
>Anyways, in the context of games, saying something didn't "age" well means that it now exists in a different context to when it originally released and does not look as favorable in the current context as it did when it released in its original context. Stop pretending anything exists in a vacuum and is totally isolated from any reality surrounding it. Things are not judged solely on their own merits, they are measured comparatively to the things they are competing against (and two separate games are competing for your time and attention). Stop being obtuse, everyone knows what is meant by "it didn't age well" and you could have made your point about you getting older without making it about a phrase that everyone else understands, uses completely appropriately, and doesn't put as much thought or care into at all.

your perception is the context in which a game exists. context always changes. you cannot change the fact that context is always changing. how you relate to a work changes as you change and experience more of reality. this does not mean your perception was "wrong", that implies objectivity to morality and taste. that is an extremely conceited and stupid way of viewing reality, but i guess i should expect that from a stunted manchild like yourself.

I did not read your post, as games literally do not age. No media does. The Iliad did not become unreadable with the release of Harry Potter and whatever stupid copy-paste text wall you have is likely not the gotcha you think it is. Even before the invention of the computer humans have been perfectly capable of designing excellent games to play, just as an artist can create a work of art with crayons just as well as they could with the finest most expensive paints available.

You can directly compare DoJ to any modern goyslop console game and find the latter severely lacking. In this way there are no retro games, only good and bad games. And the games you like are *bad*. Just a big smelly stinky pile of shit. Sorry!

Since when are shooters popular with trannies? I thought trannies only cared about slop like Sims and WRPGs and other bullshit where they can recreate their butchered selves into another virtual reality.

>>724534951
>Since when are shooters popular with trannies?
The early 2010's or so. Around the start of the tranny psyop. It's a genre that only appeals to the autistic, naturally it's gonna be troon infested.

>>724534929
There are also nearly no actual "retro" games either because "retro", as actually defined, is an aesthetic choice and not a synonym for "old". A game is either "retro" when it is new or it is never "retro" at all, no matter how old it is. But that's another word that has been misused enough that its definition has been obliterated by retards.

>>724535015
Well anon, sounds like trannies are preferable to you then. The argument against trannies is that they ruin everything. However, if they play cool games, and you play boring slop, well I guess you're the problem now.

Playing slow boring rpgs where you walk across an empty desert for 10 minutes to pass 2 dialogue checks then walk for 10 minutes then follow a waypoint arrow to the next checkpoint are boring. I will take 10,000 shmup players over 1 person who likes games like that.

>>724534929
Everything ages, everything is affected by time. The Iliad is quite literally not understandable in its original context because we do not understand the original language it was recorded in not do we have recordings of the original orations of it nor do we have in depth cultural knowledge to deduce all potential cultural references made within. Context has been lost. We can still appreciate it, but it has aged and we can never experience it in its original form not would we be compatible to understand it fully if we could.

>>724535164
Waypoint arrows and autoscrollers are both bad.

>>724535237
>The Iliad is quite literally not understandable in its original context
It quite literally is and the most profound and enjoyable part about greco-roman literature is how extremely relatable it is. To me there is little else more comforting than reading something from thousands of years ago and going
>whoa shit that guy has the same problems I do

It's interesting to me that shooter talk really does fuel a lot of posts on this board still. I'm not buying the line that trannies are into them, though. All of the good players who I'm aware of are just normal dudes - though I grant that's not much because I don't seek any of them out. If there is some undercurrent tranny subculture behind shooters, I would be surprised. I don't see it. But I don't seek it out, because I don't care about them, so maybe it's true? Shooters are still better games than most, in general.

>>724535493
>It's interesting to me that shooter talk really does fuel a lot of posts on this board still.
It's called fake interest from the posers who heard a youtuber say they're the peak of the medium.

>>724535246
A shooter that isn't an "autoscroller" came out recently, called Raiden Nova, and it's pretty fucking bad. I bought it not expecting much, and was still disappointed.

>>724535246
DoJ uses autoscrolling as a strength due to how its scoring system is designed. The urgency of it lends itself well to chaining and collecting bees. This is turn allows level design to be exponentially more complex. Like you can't have shmup level design in a twin stick shooter where you can freely move around on a static screen and shoot in all directions, which is why a lot of them just ferry players between isolated rooms.

>>724533983
I like you anon
As a late zoomer/early millennial who mostly played flash games growing up I'm always impressed at some of the shit people made over a decade ago that I never got a chance to play
Imo late PS2 to PS3/Vita where the height of vidya design and QoL but SNES and arcade vidya from around the same time are also a fucktonne of fun

>>724530998 (OP)
Why is everything about reddit with you people? Can't you judge a game by its own merits, rather than by whether or not faggots on a different site would like it?

>>724535405
It quite literally is not understandable to the fullest extent it would have been to someone in ancient Greece who fluently spoke the language and lived in the same world as the story was begging told. There's minutiae that is lost on you, someone in the other side of the globe 2700+ years later. There are references and cultural understanding that had been lost to time and you are receiving a retelling of the story through a translation that had been filtered through modern man's lens, adding new context and colorings of the narrative. There was literally a big hubbub earlier today year about exactly this happening with a new translation of the Odyssey. Is expect a retarded anime fag like you to understand that translations often remove and change the original work.

>>724535532
Ugh, youtube. Whatever. I liked shooters as a child, I liked them as a teen and young adult, and I still like them now. The older I get, the less tolerance I have for bullshit. Shooters tend to not have a lot of bullshit, and you either like them or don't, but you don't have to piss time away to figure that decision out.

>>724535560
Scoring mechanics are extrinsic motivation for literal bugmen. If you need a game to tell you that you've gotten an A+ for being a good boy then you're cattle.

Every year someone is squabbling over a new translation of the Odyssey, what the fuck are you talking about? The depth of the literature is what leads to a myriad of translations and interpretations. These are stories passed orally between tens of thousands of people and they had different effects on everyone. And I specifically chose the Iliad earlier, not the Odyssey, because it's more heavily focused on universal human experiences. How much of a spastic apathetic schizoid autist do you have to be to not have that take away from the Iliad?

I’ve always seen FPS as being for autistic man children and the spastic.

>>724536104
"Shooters" in this instance are referring to shmups. But you're right about FPS games post Halo, pre-Halo they were for high IQ people.

>>724536150
Yeah sure, you need an enormous brain to play Unreal tournament pubs.

You vastly under estimate the masses. 3D spatial navigation is not a given.

>>724536287
Sure thing.

>>724535914
The point I am making is that it does age because parts of the work, be it the Iliad or the Odyssey, are lost due to the ever changing context of language and our relation to each other and cultural understanding. I never said that there is nothing that you can take away from the Iliad or the Odyssey in the modern day or that you can't enjoy them, but that your relation to them will never and could never be that of the original audience. It ages because entropy is a universal truth. Saying things like "games don't age" or "the Iliad doesn't age" is straight up wrong from every understands of what it might mean. I never once said that "old=bad", and I generally prefer older games and movies and books and music. But it is stupid to try and say "games don't age" to cope with the fact that what I enjoy is no longer contemporary and is generally less talked about. You should find better ways of understanding reality to deal with your own aging and lack of meaning in life than going into random threads to screech into the void about nu gamers not liking shmups anymore.

You're conflating language and cultural references with the work itself. And the Iliad itself doesn't exactly have super deep cuts of ancient Greek culture. If something is no longer understood that's a sign of ignorance on the reader's part. Like one of my favorite books of all time is anatomy of melancholy, which was written just on the cusp of what we consider modern english, and it takes very minimal verbal intelligence to parse out what things mean in context then the prose just flows naturally. There's nothing topical about a shoot em up, anyone can understand, general brain atrophy due to limbic capitalism has simply made getting into the genre more difficult and less marketable. But the value is still there and unchanged. Topical values are short sighted and good games will outlive them. You'll understand this when you're older.

>You're conflating language and cultural references with the work itself.
language IS the medium of the work though and cultural references, euphemisms, and allusions can seriously change how a work is coloured. all translations change the meaning and how you, the audience, relate to a work. there is not objectively correct translation of a given work because languages do not have 1:1 correlations to one another and any given translator are themselves missing some required context that they will be unable to impart in their own translations.
>If something is no longer understood that's a sign of ignorance on the reader's part.
ignorance as a result of an ever shifting context. it is inevitable, as entropy envelops all things. all responsibility does not fall on the audience for being ignorant of context, in fact thinking in terms of being fully informed of all contexts all the time is a faulty way of viewing audiences in general.
>You'll understand this when you're older.
it is funny that you pretend to be a wizened old sage when you've got the mentality of a petulant child that amounts to "what i like is objectively good, what i don't like is objectively bad, and nothing can ever change that fact."

Mass Effect 2 and Dark Souls are arguably two of the most important games in /v/'s history. Anybody who's been here since at least 2008 can tell you that.

Demon's Souls, and by extension Dark Souls, are part responsible for the creation of /vg/. Mass Effect 2 was so beloved and obsessed over by /v/ that the board's name was literally changed to Tali'Zorah /v/as Normandy Appreciation Station.

>>724530998 (OP)

What's funny to me is that /v/ hated Fallout 3 but when trannies started praising New Vegas and shitting on 3 /v/ did a 180 and suddenly 3 had better writing

>>724541717
Dark Souls wasn't a hidden gem, Demon's Souls was already a massive underground hit by that point.

Anyone who played Demon's Souls around release knew it was something special, something magical, and you were on the ground floor. Once you had a taste of Demon's Souls, you could never go back to the old slop again. Souls changing the face of gaming was inevitable, Demon's Souls was a game that commanded respect and attention.

So reddit plays better games than /v/?
This board being infested by third worlder toaster gamers and nintendo trannies is a disgrace.

>>724541717
this. Dark souls was /v/core as fuck and it spread to youtube videos and from there took over reddit by storm. I say this as a huge hater of the series. /v/ always like it and yea /v/ is super contrarian.

/v/ always liked NewVegas as well. Don't let troons and normies have it, that was /ourgame/

/v/ never liked Halo or Uncharted but I think theyre good. /v/ always hated BamHamCity for some reason but I like those games.
HollowKnight sucks and is reddit. Portal 2 is redit incarnate.

I feel like a lot of the /v/ shit is gay anime contrarian shit but idk I've never played most of it.

Spiderman 1 was a bit woke, which I admitted in my post, and had some boring parts, but on the whole it is a very impressive and well-made game. It is superior to its sequel (and significantly less woketarded as well). I like Insomniac, I like SuperHero videogames. I played a lot of Spidey stuff up to that point and its honestly better, its refinement of the Spideyman gameplay formula. very polished.

its not for /v/, /v/ is contrarian

Uncharted 2 was always good its better than tomb raider, better than that new Indiana Jones. Better than all the Ubislop and openworld half assed 3rdperson shooters mafia/saints row whatever. SHits all over those games NaughtyDog was the best in the biz at western big budget polish before Druckman the jew took over and turned ND gay and subversive and inept.
now, I never bought those games at full price, I'd rent them from blockbuster. theyd make for a fun Friday night. bought em for 5 bucks 10 years later and replayed em, atill held up. U2 was the best one.

Yume Nikki is cool it is art. One man's strange expression and vision. Needs a guide to finish. (so does Fallout 1 and Metal Gear 1 on MSX, still cool games)

Dark Souls just isn't my thing. tried all of them and Bloodborne. didnt like any. Had the least fun with 3. Sorry. I just don't like it

BoTW Zelda is for reddit faggots and little girls and stupid children. Skyrim and Red Dead Redemption 1 and even Spiderman shits on BOTW dude AssCreed2 shits on BoTW. Most overrated game, cry about it

theres a lot of japanese shit I dont even know in that list and I'm gonna be honest with you, I'm not gonna play them without someone showing some gameplay to hook me

I'll play Deus Ex and VtM:B some day. and The Thief games.
but like Gothic 2 is just Morrowind/Oblivion for contrarian Europeans and Dead or Alive 5 is just a fighting game I've played others in its series + Tekken, I dont get what makes it /v/core. I even played the demo.

Nier Automata has been claimed by gays coomers and trannies so hard it might as well be reddit

I cant be bothered to give a shit about earthbound or 3. Happy for people who like it. I think I dont like jrpgs. I doubt I'll ever play the world ends with you or SMT Nocturne
