When did you realize the industry is fucked?

When did you realize the industry is fucked?

When Witcher 3 won GOTY

Watchdogs sold well

When PS4 sold 30 million units without any games.

>like dark souls but fun

What did he mean by this?

which game should've won?

Undertale :^)

Whatever Nintendo had up that year.

I'm soo fucking triggered that I somehow did a mental u-turn and am now I can't stop laughing...

Idk I was just looking for a (You) becauze Im bored
this isnt me lel

>but fun
So he's saying dark souls isn't fun, and NMS is.

Link to article?

who said this?

Jesus fucking christ.
>Dude you gotta play ____, it's like the Dark Souls of ____ games!

2009 is when things really went down the shitter for video games

In what way is No man sky like Dark Souls?

>using dark souls as a comparison for anything

The more I watch videos of it, the more I want to play Minecraft again or some other survival game.

When Sonyggers cheered for PS4 and love paying for online. I hate you people, you are happiest when you are ruining this hobby.

>It's the Dark Souls of X

Video games are for children.

Remember this shit?

single player, leaving messages is like Nu Males Sky because you name things and people can see it.

Thats the extent of multiplayer.

>this is the kind of people that posts here

Try a noose, its the dark souls of killing yourself

Dark souls
>JRPG
>medival fantasy setting
>every area and enemy placement is planned by the developers
>main attraction to the game is its difficulty.

No man's sky
>survival exploration game
>sci-fi space setting
>random everything
>main attraction is cozy space stuff

They're like exact opposites.

Playing FPS like that is honestly pretty horrifying.

Anything but batman arkham tier button spamming game with medieval fantasy meme

>Dark souls
>JRPG
what

>random everything
>procedurally generated

They're like exact opposites.

Dark Souls is action RPG, which is just made by a Japanese studio. JRPG is it's own genre.

No Man's Sky is survival only in PR. It's actual survival aspect is shit and not interesting, just annoying and adds unnecessary game time, to not make the game be completed in an hour or two.

Don't think there is an issue with referring to procedurally generated as random.

But Dark Souls has multiplayer.
But Dark Souls IS fun!

I can accept he dont think dark souls is fun, but comparing those 2 games when they complete different generes and have nothing similar to eachother

>like Dark Souls but fun

Just by reading the title I can tell that was written by either a woman or a nu-male

>If you lose items upon dying it is now compared to dark souls.
wew

>IT'S REAL

here's your you brother
can i get one too

not him but here's a you bro

we're all in this together

Only if you promise to not shit on this board even more

Fucking everything is like Dark Souls these days, what the fuck

...

FFXV is also action RPG, which is just made by a Japanese studio.

it's still JRPG

>everything is like Dark Souls these days,
Dark Souls 3 sucked for being TOO MUCH like Dark Souls

>IT'S NOT FUCKING FAIR
>WHY DON'T PEOPLE HATE ITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

>we're at a point in history were JRPG apparently means something different to an "RPG from Japan"

On topic, several years ago. It sure does seem to get worse every day, though.

>Nu Male's Scam where you just shoot a laser at shit and do nothing else is like Dark Souls but fun!

Because it's the one original and creative game that's gotten mainstream recognition lately, so everyone is trying to leech off of it

When Rome 2 total war came out

FUCK

We haven't overlooked this little gem have we? You all have your copy right?

FUCKKKKKKKKK

No, JRPG has its own distinct set of mechanics.
Dark Souls is clearly a RPG with western elements akin to Baldur's Gate, Gothic and Morrowind.
Just because a Japanese studio made it, it doesn't magically become a "JRPG"

>you aren't suppose to be entertained by entertainment, pleb

Mario Kart 8.

He has a point though, people can have fun with different kinds of games and it would be pretty boring if we only had one way to have fun. We'd be like normies, who can only have fun when they go out with friends and get drunk.

>Just because it's a Japanese RPG doesn't make it a Japanese RPG

The tragedy of Command & Conquer really broke me.

when demon souls was published

Is it still possible to get generals anywhere?

2006-2007*
Good ole horse armor and cawwadoody and Halo map packs.

I think it was honestly horse armor for me.

Ok, I'm not saying NMS is shit, because I'm not a faggot who judges vidya based on what others say. I'll pirate it and form my own opinion.

But how the fuck is it like Dark Souls?
And how the fuck are Dark Souls game not fun?
I'm not a Fromdrone, the games are far from perfect, but what the shit is wrong with them.

I hope this is bait at least.

when jewbisoft said something like "dropping support for this game" after a mere month and "we ain't making realistic R6 games anymore, cause muh money, muh time"

Then when games started to lose mod tools and dedicate servers left and right

Also when jewctivision released that mess of moderwarfail 2, raised the price cause for them a incomplete game was fine and "worth it" then proceed to scalp people with dlcs

Then when kiketronic arts ruined C&C franchise with RA2 and whatever followed after and then when they released that buggy joke of Allied Assault

Jewzzard world of nerf this cry me a river craft

Jewdos and their oversimplified Deadly Shadows

So yeah in between 2001 and 2007/2009 ?

So yeah basically in between

>Like Dark Souls but...

How to instantly spot a shitty journalist.

i can tell with 100% certainty without even looking it up that this article is written by a woman

They're all shitty at this point.

I don't know how anyone still takes these people seriously.

can you use actual fucking names for 2 sentences?

I've seen so many retards with this retarded opinion it's driving me crazy.

These fuckheads seem to think that knights+dragons=wrpg even though Dark Souls shares almost no mechanics with traditional western crpgs. It's a Japanese action game with light JRPG elements thrown in and that's it.

Yeah but they're shitty AT being shitty.

It isn't fucked it's changing

but dude, medieval-ish setting!!!!!

>These fuckheads seem to think that knights+dragons=wrpg even though Dark Souls shares almost no mechanics with traditional western crpgs. It's a Japanese action game with light JRPG elements thrown in and that's it.

From Software has literally been trying to make western style games for over twenty years.

Demon's souls is a spiritual successor to King's Field, which is a WRPG, Dark Souls is a spiritual successor to Demon's Souls, Bloodborne is a spiritual successor to Dark Souls.

They're all a japanese take on western RPGs.

i think its more about pacing and structure really. then the high or low fantasy gets layered on top of it. but thats more of a iffy thing.

yeah, they even made a mech game where you don't flip around doing ninja kicks. they're obviously westaboos.

I hate how everything with some form of a level bar is an RPG nowadays.

>trend for finished games at a fixed price, with strategic depth and interesting themes disappears
>trend for slot-machine psychology and constant micropayments for shallow ripoffs of older games arises

If you don't think that's fucked, I'd love to hear your opinion on 300 million people having to choose whether to elect Hillary Clinton or Donald Trump to the most powerful position on Earth.

Everything's fucked, it has been for ages, and normies are too afraid to admit it because we can't go back.

well ac really does break away from the gundam /super humanoid style of mecha japan seems to gravitate towards.

The industry has always been fucked

When I saw no man's sky and learned that it has no multi player (to speak of), I immediately thought though of this. It is cheaper to.

how the fuck is it like dark souls? fucking kill me now by fucking my ass until I die

Dark Souls of FPS
Arma 3?
go ahead, rape me now

It is technically an RPG made in Japan. We should really ditch the terms WRPG and JRPG. Let's stick to Turn-based and Action RPGS.

I'll make this simple

>JRPG
turn based

>RPG
not turn based


ez?

Version 1.0 not out yet?

They've also made plenty of crazy mech games (Another Century's Episode, Metal Wolf Chaos, Murakumo, some of the Armored Core games), and while super powered fast as shit mechs flying around is pretty Japanese, there's nothing specifically western about slower, more grounded mechs.

>like dark souls but fun

I don't think I've ever been this upset.

Actually, pretty acurate user.
>inb4 runs like shit
Learn what the startup parameters are scrubs, and play on good servers

When Nintendo started making nintendo power and developed their games around bullshit secrets that you needed to buy their magazine to beat

what's arma 3?

In the late 90s when garbage like Mario 64 and MGS were accepted by a new generation of gamers as actually being good when they were not even close.

Beats me but Sup Forums told me to hate W3

It was the most disgusting thing I have experienced in my life.

I remain strong though. Fuck Sony.

>Fucking Tales and Star Ocean aren't JRPGs under this definition.

around the time when multiple big review groups and famous/regocnized names unanimously gave Skyrim GOTY award.
Lost my faith in gamers, and game journalism from that point. Critical reviews are dead and gamer community is largely comprised at sheep trowing money at whatever appears on the screen in the trailer room.

FUCK YOU YOU FUCKING BAITING COCKSUCKER DO YOU NOT FUCKING KNOW HOW AN ENTIRE GENERATION OF WRPGS WORKED YOU MONGLING BUNKER BUSTER FAGMOTRON?

FUCK

The entire industry has been fucked since the 90s and you know it, they've been riding on the coattails of their success and innovation then.

The vidya community is full of fucking idiots who will eat up any garbage thrown at them as long as it either has multiplayer, a """smart""" plot, or has the label "indie" or "nintendo" on it.

Almost as shitty as the comic book community.

You're mistaken my friend, Sony's been destroying the industry since long before the PS4. They've been doing it since the SNES era, where they screwed over Nintendo, then they made the PS1 intentionally to get dudebros and non-gamers into video games while stealing franchises and devs from Nintendo as a dirty and underhanded way of sabotaging them. I hate Sony with every fiber of my god damned being and I won't rest until this board is a paradise free from their influence.

ftfy

Yes, but saying that something with the single purpose of being fun for people shouldn't be required to be fun is a bit...how to say it...dumb?
Not everyone is going to enjoy it. No complain there. But saying that a game doesn't have any pressure to be fun is just wrong.

This autism

This makes no sense whatsoever. In what way are those two games related from a gameplay standpoint?
