yeah I eat rear end posted:You just need autism to "get" the technical parts of melee. There is little practical reason to ever do some of the stuff they obsess over, but they will still spend weeks practicing it so they can show it off at tournaments. Yeah also when you hear about sexual assaults and harassment at tournaments it is always, always, always the Melee players. Every time.

Twelve Batmans posted:Happened to see your post regarding KOF XIII a few pages back and while I think the sale is over, I can say XIII was an excellent game. Just very tight on the inputs. I've found XIV to be a lot more forgiving on inputs and thus easier to practice, but XIII is great. Very beautiful game too. Sweet. I actually did end up buying it during the sale but haven't had a chance to spin it up yet because my boot drive ended up committing suicide.

GTA, as a franchise, has been getting worse and worse since the PS2 era, and even then SA is the only one that manages to be any better than aggressively mediocre.

Uncharted 1 and 2 are pretty fun. The Last Of Us is profoundly unfun, as if Naughty Dog wanted to punish you for childishly believing that video games are entertainment.

It is no surprise at all that Nintendo doesn't make more new franchises when stuff like Codename S.T.E.A.M. is already sitting in bargain bins all over and Splatoon, the company's best-selling new IP of the last decade, sold less than half as many copies as lovely entries of other series like Assassin's Creed Unity.

The Skeleton King posted:Nintendo should still do more than their infinite wave of Mario and Zelda titles. They have a bad habit of killing things for not making gigantic sales. In the end it leaves them with consoles that have only two games of any value coming out each year and endless rereleases of decades old games. They should try making lots of lower budget games alongside their big titles so that they can have an actual library on their consoles and some variety in their games. I agree wholeheartedly, I'm just saying it's not a surprise at all. quote:Also, splatoon's lack of sales can be blamed on the WiiU selling like trash. Yeah, but what's the excuse for Codename STEAM then? I just grabbed it for seven bucks at GameStop and am only a few missions in, but it's a perfectly serviceable Valkeria Chronicles Lite that has a hell of a nice art style and a story that's so ridiculous that it doesn't matter how boring or inconsequential it feels. I mean, gently caress, the Japanese subtitle is LINCOLN VS. ALIENS. Rutibex posted:same, except WoW ruined MMOs and Ultima Online was the golden age Rutibex, you go on speaking truth.

Disgusting Coward posted:Konami side scrolling beat 'em ups are garbage. Turtles, Simpsons, X-Men - people only like them because of nostalgia. Play them again, and they're simplistic garbage, whereas all the Capcom side scrollers [Final Fight, Aliens Vs. Predator, Punisher, Cadillacs & Dinosaurs etc] hold up well. Beat 'em ups are such a weird genre. My unpopular opinion is that The Bouncer, a beat 'em up for the PS2, was kinda fun. quote:The Games forum is largely worthless nowadays. Nerdlingers are so keen to get their name on a megathread that they'll post months in advance and start building up a hype frenzy, then when the actual product's released nobody wants to back down so you get this weird circlejerk of people rabidly defending a game and any actual discussion is pretty much impossible. Any game that has a omg goon dev gets an automatic pass and is immediately the best thing ever [Brigador, Clockwork Empires, Age of Wonders] and about 1/3 of the other threads are obviously posted by employees of studios. Any time anyone posts like "HEY GUYS JUST GONNA PLAY THIS GAME WHAT SHOULD I EXPECT/DO/PREPARE FOR?" it makes me feel sad, because surely figuring out what to expect and do is the entire point of a videogame? This is so true. It's a sea of megathreads filled with overinvested people. The thing is...how else should it work?

Arcsquad12 posted:Jetpacks are one of the worst gameplay mechanics ever added to games. They really have no place in games outside of platformers or games based around mobility. They pop up in multiplayer games that don't need them, ruining the balance because the maps are not based around the use of jetpacks but everyone wants to be Boba Fett so they zip around like assholes getting shot out of the sky achieving nothing. i'm really curious about what games you're talking about here because the ones i've played that have jetpacks (destiny, blops3) absolutely have their maps designed around it, to a really noticeable degree

a bone to pick posted:The best Sonic game is Shadow the Hedgehog shadow the hedgehog was actually genuinely really really good other than the plot, and if you are playing sonic games for the plot you're probably too dumb to realize that the plot is bad in the first place the dangan ronpa games are powerfully, painfully stupid and it is really bizarre to me how a third tier visual novel where the big reveal is haha the world has been destroyed for over a year and you lost your memories because of magic science and the girl that died instantly was secretly the villain because of ~~reasons~~ got as immensely popular as it did the actual murder-solving bits are really cool and the trial minigames are fun ways to deal with the accusations and stuff but the overarching plot is so bad i think i got brain damage from it

SciFiDownBeat posted:My unpopular opinion is that I don't give a poo poo about the PS4 except that it had bloodborne no there's like four good ones, like, y'know, bloodborne has a pretty cool plot, and i think between the five of them there's probably a good plot in the MGS series somewhere but dangan ronpa's plot is really worse than most japanese anime stuff by far, it's like they kept adding all these little mysteries as the game went on and then realized "oh poo poo we forgot to put answers to any of this in" at the end, writing a total rear end-pull of a plot about literal evil robot teddy bears taking over the planet under the control of a teen girl fashion model...in a murder high school mystery story. its really no wonder that the forums are so much worse now, after we got such a huge influx of nerds from that game's LP

Justin Godscock posted:But unless you recognize the plot as being a satire of the grim-n-gritty, tacticool, REAL modern warfare genre you will become autistic. here's a hot take: most gamers are like, incapable of recognizing even the most blatant satire. like far cry 3 is the least subtle game i've ever seen and yet so many people are like "uh this white dude sure is killing a lot of poor people..." like it's not intentionally hosed up mgsv was really the same way, it was like so much of it was straight-up designed to troll both the kind of people that buy it for the tacticool aesthetic and the kind of people that memorize every tiny detail of plot from the series. i mean it was an mgs game with a mandatory - yet completely useless - character creator, an "iDroid" holographic smartphone in the 80's, and F2P-esque cooldown timers on so much Mother Base stuff, and yet you had a bunch of people frothing at the mouth about a bunch of stuff without having any idea that its taking the piss

Bioshock 1 was always terrible, even at launch, and Bioshock:Infinite owns to this day, and I get really annoyed when I share that opinion with someone and they laugh it off like I'm bandwagoning or something. gently caress off, Bioshock was awful and I gave away my PC copy to my roommate (because I could do that - it was on discs) after beating it in like three very disappointing days. The biggest flaw in B:I's story, to me, is that the ending falls a little flat because Elizabeth doesn't seem to exist in the o.g. Bioshock Rapture and I don't think there's really any analogue for her. Shouldn't she be a huge, major part of the plot, just based on what we see in B:I? Al Borland Corp. posted:Monster Hunter is garbage Also this even though I keep buying these fuckin things every few years before remembering how poo poo they are. i'm sure i'm going to end up with the switch one when that comes out. luckily MH coming to a system seems to herald a bunch of actual good games

phasmid posted:I don't mind if a game steals a whole scene from a movie (if it's an action sequence), say, down to character-analogs and scenery. That is fantastic and I love when games do cinema right. Your last statement is what really brings it home for me. It's like, they'd take the ending of a great movie or some key plot point and shoehorn it so it's the equivalent of Mario slapping Peach around while she cries "My sister! My daughter!" and fans come all over themselves. the intro to mega man legends (the best game of whatever year it came out) ends with a scene that is straight ripped off from Marty jumping onto the flying delorean in BttF2, it's an obvious homage but done in the cartoony style of the game and it's wonderful

souls games would genuinely be much, much better on handhelds so you're not tied to a tv for hours trying to murder a boss properly like bloodborne and ds3 are real pretty but dark souls 1 would totally run on a vita or switch hell, get real weird, go all the way back to demon's souls with hub worlds and poo poo (also release the kings field games for pc/psn)

Universe Master posted:The development of regenerating health was overall a good thing because it allows for every encounter to potentially go full out and throw everything at you. This is correct in theory but in practice it means devs don't actually design encounters anymore they just fling enemies at you. There is definitely room for both systems, though, and regen games have saturated the market to the point where a new FPS without auto-regen automatically has a point in its favor from me not because it's better but because it's different.
