I feel like the first and second Katamaris were the only good ones, then the devs just started arbitrarily putting objects in the level without paying any mind to the flow of gameplay and I hated it. No pleasing rows of tiny objects, just small, medium, and big objects way too close to each other in random order. :\

The imagery is oversexed but I thought it was odd that not many people picked up on Tomb Raider basically being a Robert Louis Stevenson-esque "boy goes on adventure and becomes a Man" story but with a female main character

I'm also thinking about that mad world gears of war commercial where it tried to make the game look more atmospheric than it actually was. Were the gears of war games actually any good, I never hear anything about them anymore tbh

If female characters didn't sway their hips when they walked, how am I supposed to figure out which guard is actually Meryl in disguise?

GBC Metal Gear Solid game had the girl posing as a male guard have a red cap and ponytail. There were a lot of red caps and other caps and a lot of ponytail guards suddenly for this one area. Sorry women, but minor convenience in small segments of gameplay trumps your equality.

The games' gritty, gunmetal grey and brown aesthetic was so overpowering that it was nearly impossible to tell who was a human and who was a horrible alien monster in pvp.

VoidBurger posted:yeah it's really intellectually dishonest to provide examples of sexism in a series about sexism in gaming, in order to prove a thesis one is discussing. i was supposed to write a term paper about italian culture but i wrote it mostly about the mario brothers and i got an F. i just don't get these feminazis Ha ha you thought my post was against the intent of the video, but in fact, it was a generalized statement that you applied a bias toward!  No, really, my statement applies to the strawman of "women not represented in gaming as regular people". A better argument is that it's not a regular thing. I can't be assed to submit more than a hot take on that video, though, or the series as a whole, lest I devolve into intelligent debate in a subforum for videogames. Lurdiak posted:The games' gritty, gunmetal grey and brown aesthetic was so overpowering that it was nearly impossible to tell who was a human and who was a horrible alien monster in pvp. This is the dilemma of all post-apocalypse games: cool concepts and settings, but they're all visually boring palettes and repetitive "location in ruins" scenery. Basically, "How do I make mud and concrete exciting?"

Also every gun was a one hit kill in a game with slow clunky movement. At the time I couldn't understand why all my friends loved it.

i got to the part in the final fantasy 15 demo where the kid puts his ipad up to his ear after his pet KITSUNE brings him his ipad and i loving stopped it because holy god i hate this poo poo i should also say that i didn't finish the final fantasy 15 demo that came with that lovely PSP final fantasy re-release that wasn't good at all and you know what? i stopped giving a poo poo about final fantasy around ff12. i was queer for ff7, i hated ff8, ff9 was okay, ff10 was BARELY okay, ff11 was a piece of poo poo for everquest spergs, and ff12 was ALMOST GOOD, and then it's all been loving horrible since then ff14 is okay but i'm not about to pay 15 bucks a month when there are a billion other free to play MMOs that do the exact same loving thing final fantasy is bad and has always been bad

bloodychill posted:I'm genuinely interested in what you mean by this, not looking to pick a fight. VoidBurger wasn't the only person to read your post and go "uh wha?" I watched the video, promptly forgot about it. Then VB posted a thing, I responded with a statement that specified nothing. That is to say, if you read my statement as a point of opposition, it means one thing, but if you read it as a concurring opinion, it means something different entirely. I'm guilty of making making vagaries and using many words to contribute nothing--at the very least, for this case  cram me sideways posted:ff14 is okay but i'm not about to pay 15 bucks a month when there are a billion other free to play MMOs that do the exact same loving thing I'd feel the same way, but I don't; sunk cost fallacy  At least it's not hot garbage for the cost

I don't see how that would look weird or make some social commentary. Lara Croft is a badass in the new Tomb Raider games. The fact that she keeps on fighting despite her hosed up injuries makes her a John Mcclane like action hero. -edit Oh wait, you're responding to a Tropes Vs. Woman video.

What the hell are we talking about in this thread now? What's up with Lara Croft, how's she doin'? She never called me back, can you find out if maybe she lost my number or something? She said she'd call me and she never did so I figure she must have lost the number or something. Lara call me.

Okay so Lara did Rise of the Tomb Raider which is a sequel to Tomb Raider 2013 but some DIPSHIT made it exclusive to the Xbone, which means it's BAD GAME regardless of whether it is a good game (it is) and now we're going through some DLC pains and we don't know if this loving thing's gonna pull an Arkham Knight and have totally lovely DLC or not; anyways don't buy until it's $5 in a humble bundle with all the dlc that is bad

Oh. I didn't much care for the first New Tomb Raider game, it felt like it was Uncharted but with some crappy Batman-style exploration stuck on top. The voice acting was bad and the plot was dumb and I sort of felt like they went out of their way to injure Lara at every level transition, which started to push my suspension of disbelief. Also the platforming wasn't very satisfying and I disliked the puzzles.

How about when they play "Mad World" during Dom's heroic sacrifice. I rolled my eyes pretty drat hard at that point. Then the game promptly goes back to having you blast more locusts.
