punk rebel ecks posted:Outside of workplace abuse, which admittedly is a serious thing, it's ridiculous that people took Kojima's side over Konami during the "controversial" breakup around Metal Gear Solid V. Kojina takes years and nearly 100 million dollars to work on the game, only for it to be half finished. The workplace abuse and canceling the Silent Hill game with Guillermo del Toro really tilted the scales in Kojima's favor. The thing is, most people who play games probably don't give a poo poo how they're made. They see Kojima as an auteur who makes really unique and weird games and should be allowed to do his thing, and then Konami is the villain who rips that away from us. I'm certain Kojima is a nightmare to supervise but that's not really the part we see. DogonCrook posted:I dont really know anything about this guy or his games but he sounds like a loving child everytime i hear about him i wouldnt push a loving broom alongside this dude so yeah lol. He's an auteur creator working at a level in the industry where that doesn't really work. If he was making games on a smaller scale, even if it's with a team with the size/budget of Supergiant Games, I don't think anyone would have a problem with him--he'd be the nerdy guy having fun making weird games and not ruffling too many feathers in the process. He's not a Jonathan Blow or Phil Fish going around poo poo-talking other creators, for example. He's just super excited to do what he does. But he gets to work with huge teams and huge budgets, which means he has corporate overhead, and his auteur tendencies mean that he's probably not a great steward of a game budget.

The Division was a clown show at launch, but every time it gets brought up someone jumps in to mention how they fixed everything and it's a really good game now. I played it for the first time recently and still found it boring and lovely. I feel like they combined the worst parts of loot-grind RPGs and serious military shoot-mans.

ChazTurbo posted:I genuinely dig the concept but the two current big ones (pub and fort) feel and play like rear end. I don't know about all the new ones coming out but if they can make one that doesn't control like poo poo and has decent gunplay then I'm sold. Agreed. That's why I'm kind of excited about the new COD and Battlefield while everyone is making GBS threads on them for adding BR. I want to try the concept in some games that aren't shoddy.

I bring quality options for fellow self-loathing gen-xers Quake champions is pretty much a re-skinned loot crate economy version of quake 3. I suck at it because I'm old now but it is a good game, as long as new age matchmaking doesn't piss you off. Overload just released version 1.0, otherwise known as descent 4. This game is great. It's got a nice campaign, infinite baddie steam leaderboard challenge mode and multiplayer. Overload is probably my favorite game since DO4M. https://store.steampowered.com/app/448850/Overload/

hawowanlawow posted:oh I see, the pubg hate is an old man nerd thing The scale is bad for getting a lot of fights in a short amount of time. You'll have a lot of games where you spend the first 10 minutes loving around getting looted up. The arcade mode where it's a small area with 30 people is actually decently fun because it cuts out the vehicles and running 50 miles bullshit.

I didn't realize Fortnite is as popular as it is until I started reading about Russians using it to run account scams using stolen info from other sites because the site security is so lovely. It doesn't seem like anyone was prepared for the incredibly obvious appeal and popularity of doing Battle Royale/Hunger Games but for real. Maybe everyone else thought it was too tasteless to make a Hunger Games... game until someone went and did it anyway. Name Change fucked around with this message at 13:51 on Jun 13, 2018 |

I absolutely do not watch WWF style poo poo but I have to admit I have had a blast with those games just for the stupid character customization. Once at work we had the entire the entire team put into the game with stats voted by the rest of the team, meaning the one 6'5 marine in the group's virtual copy basically went around beating us like he wanted our lunch money, but it was great. Are there any tolerable ones for button mashing stupidity that have good character editors these days?

The only reason I can't get excited for the new Battlefield it's EA and lately EA has done nothing but gently caress it's customers in the rear end. ED: Their assholery is so good it actually is hitting their bottom line hard as most investment recommendations suggest like, all of the big publishers EXCEPT EA because they 'lost customer confidence.' Well said, stock guys.

To this day I've never seen a game where your main character so subtly falls apart over it. I think my favorite thing in the game is how you begin looking all clean & crisp and when you target people you scream stuff like "Hostile, 6 O'Clock!" or "Tango down," but by the end you look like a bloody wreck and the targeting messages have changed to "KILL THAT FUCKER OVER THERE!" style dialogue.

Champions was the poo poo because you all you need is a head on and profile shot and you can upload anybody so like carl winslow can beat the poo poo out of gw bush with a dumb grin on his face. It was very good. On of my favorite was will ferrell as bush vs real bush will Ferrell would stomp the poo poo out of most boxers his stats were pretty good because of his size.
