Dark Souls is way too fond of taking away player agency during combat and feels more like battling lovely controls than battling monsters.

Against my own gain, I'm going to tell you something, Zzulu-kun. Senpai will never notice you. Even if Senpai notices you, Senpai's attention will in some way ultimately cause you suffering. So notice yourself. And notice the greatest meaning of your truest self. [After you leave, possibly saddened but definitely wizened, I sigh and return to my computer. It's another night of the same old bizarre non-dark web porn and shitposting.]

TheMostFrench posted:Warframe has had pvp for at least a year or 2, it has 4 or 5 gametypes I think - A sports/rocket league style thing, deathmatch, CTF, domination/control point stuff, and a bounty mode (people on a kill streak are worth more points). Practically no one plays pvp though (like 1% of the player base last I read), and the pvp loot can't be used in pve. that's really sad that the pvp isn't popular, I don't find any challenge in doing pve stuff

Chomp8645 posted:Unironically there is more authenticity, character development, and just real human emotion in the quest "The Bloody Baron" alone than there is in most full video games. And yet The Bloody Baron still has far less of those things than a good TV show, movie or book. I still think video games are the worst medium for telling a story and that they should stick to gameplay.

Caesar Saladin posted:maybe video games should just be textureless shapes in a void shooting at eachother and jumping on things You're right, gameplay isn't the only thing that matters. Stuff like graphics, art style, setting, mood, etc. are also important. it's just depressing that some of the most popular and critically acclaimed games are games with "good" stories, but bad gameplay. I mean, if you like good stories there are plenty of them out there in other mediums. People are just turning games into barely interactive $60 movies. Oh, well.

SNK's library is really overrated. Their only consistent strength was pixel art, and even then there were a lot of duds.

mystery fluid posted:According to Steam, played 2 hours of Witcher 1. Geralt was lame and the combat was rear end. I hear neither of those things were fixed ever, so what I'm saying is gently caress the witcher games. Agreed. Even the intro was painful to watch.

I really don't get how people can actually justify playing a game that gets good after "X" hours. Like, I get that you probably barely value your time by simply playing videogames in the first place, but I'm not dropping 10 hours on anything just on the promise that it gets better. That's ridiculous.

Anyone who says Dragon Age 1 wasn't boring, easy and dumb is a loving liar. I have literally nothing better to do with my time and still couldn't stand it. Oh hey a final battle is coming? Let me go recruit some dwarves. Oh we are going to go through 40 hours of the dwarven elections, talking to 30 NPCs to convince them of who they should vote for while I run a fetch ques *snoring* I returned it after I woke up but not before I completely broke the games combat, I was never in any danger and that scripted sequence when you get surrounded by 50 soldiers? I steamrolled them all without losing any health and had to give myself up to the invincible quest NPC because that was how the scripted cutscene progressed.

Same reason you can sometimes give a TV show a shot after a lovely first season, sometimes it's worth it. That said there has to be a reasonable line. When I hear someone tell me a Final Fantasy game "gets good 40 hours in" I'm like "WHO THE gently caress CARES AT THAT POINT?" But if it's like an hour or two, then sure. I hated the first hour of the first Deus Ex (Blasphemy, I know) because nothing seemed to make sense but then the whole game immediately turned around when you got to UNATCO. That's kind of where I put the acceptable line.

mind the walrus posted:The games do a really bad job of showing it by making Geralt handsome as hell with the voice of a g-spot strummer--and I'm not saying "you need to read the books to get it"--but the books do a much better job of showing why Geralt's "coolness" is in-fact not that cool. He's a pseudo-gypsy Orkin man in a world of provincial, uneducated backwash, conditioned to only give a gently caress about his paycheck and similarly square peg friends and an immortal love interest who toys with him constantly. It's got all the bleakness and sexual hang-ups you'd expect from a lonely Eastern European man who grew up under the Soviet Union and didn't really get to creatively express himself until the Iron Curtain fell. If the games weren't so painfully in-love with a romantic medieval world as its foundation (because that makes for a stronger "twist" feeling to the player), he'd make a good salt on typical game protagonists like what they were going for in GTAV. The books are great, and the witchers are all oblivious and ignorant of everything that isn't part of their job. When Ciri was growing up Triss had to step in to remind them all that periods are a thing and there was a reason that Ciri didn't perform as well one week a month and looked like she was constantly in pain that whole time. Basically everyone who lived at kaer morhen is dumb

I feel like this is only an unpopular goon opinion that most real people share but I am a huge Lore-Tard and an epic fantasy grognard but seriously I recommend everyone skip the switcher 1-2. The story is written such that w1-2 basically do nothing to contribute to the plot of W3 and all the best characters can be spawned just by saying that they are alive. All you need to know about W1-2 is Geralt is like if the dude from Memento if he were also a highlander scientist exterminator. He fucks up monsters, he bwns as hard as he pwnz, and a constantly ripped dude who can't possibly get you syphilis or pregnant is honestly believably popular in this environment.

the old woman in w1 who constantly cockblocks you from shani and speaks nightmarishly translated polish-english is kind of good. I do remember that edit: w1 is sort of good if you value the capacity for an artistic work to put you into heightened and exquisitely terrible affective states. if you have a fever or a head cold and play through all of the swamps in one sitting for example you can feel as though you are slowly being melted by demons and/or buried alive.

I have never played the witcher and because of its fans, I am probably never going to. Whenever people tell me a game is "deep" or "dark" I generally check out. And I have a good friend who loves the witcher and sincerely says "well, you won't get it if you don't read the books." He is 33. How the gently caress can you find sword and sorcery poo poo deep at that age? That's like when you go to imdb and realize that the popularity of movies is based on what kids vote for. So good movies take a backseat to Iron Man. gently caress the witcher and gently caress the people who play it.
