Veteran gamer here, I only play for fan service now

After having played videogames for almost 30 years, I feel I've seen and experienced every genre. There's never a game anymore that makes me feel "WOW".

Except fan service. I love a good game, which gets better with fan service. Look at these butts. See how plump they are? Even if the game doesn't offer me any surprise, maybe the girl will.

How do you feel about fan service being the only surprise factor in games nowadays?

disappointing, but at least it's there.

>tfw there'll never be a Platinum games directed sequel to P.N.0.3

I figure that was plan all along. Make lazy games but add hot chick's so you'll pay with your dick. A million flaws in a game aren't obvious or noticable if all you're doing is throwing ropes of cum and the characters. You're paying 60 bucks for a game just to cum on the character but you'll go out of your way to find a site to find a payed porn video for free or torrent it. I don't care about torrenting or fan service or anything I just think it's dumb that you'll spend money on a game to jerk off to the characters and shit when you could just look up pictures/videos or even torrent a game like honey select.

I despise it, no lie. Needless over the top fanservice has killed too many series' i loved. by way of the devs catering to the lowest common denominator of oktaku trash, instead of actually using the budget to make the game good. So manby japanese RPGs well victim to this. Final fantasy, Breath of fire,, Tales, Altelier, Ar Tonelico, Metroid, Castlevania, Fucking mega man. Mana khemia. Their later entries are NOTHING but fucking fanservice, the games are mediocre, bland and not worth being a game, it might as well just be fucking porn and be done with.

Not at all. The game has to be good, but a sexy ass makes me interested in a way that the game's tired formula does not.

>tfw only waifu games don't end disappointing you...

>fanservice
I never understood this meme. Just watch porn. Every time I go to hentaihaven and there is story for more than 4 minutes in between sex scenes I want to die.

I see you have brain problems. What a shame that is.

>Thong leotard

Lord have mercy they knocked it outta the fuckin park with that one

Look dude, you can like porn all you want. It has no business overtaking good videogames, a medium meant to be played, not oggled at by pathetic virgin losers.

Its one thing if a game has a healthy dose of both and the fanservice is subtle, but nowadays? BUTTS IN YOUR FACE! BOOBS JIGGLING, HAHA ISNT THIS SEXY?

Stop avatarfagging retard

Who are you to decide how people should enjoy their games?

>Two completely different people
>Avatar fagging

And you're calling /me/ the retard here?

>medium meant to be played, not oogled at by pathetic virgin losers
Fuck, I should use this as b8 now

>metroid
>mega man

Okay, broseph

This is bait, right? No one actually thinks fanservice makes a game better?

That's why surprise fan service is best.
It's not plastered everywhere, so when you get it, it's a nice surprise and means more.

Also, not being the selling point, usually means the game is decent too

No, you legit have brain problems. You can't connect cause and effect. Also you seem to have problems with your eyes. The series you listed are about as far from that as you can possibly get. Unless you're the type to call 'targeting aspects of the game toward people who are already fans of the game' fanservice. Like fucking Megaman. Are you serious? Breath of Fire has been dead for over a decade because they decided to go with a fucking roguelike that punishes you for becoming a dragon in an rpg series defined from the crowd in the 90's as "you turn into a dragon instead of just killing them". Ar Tonelico FINISHED ITS STORY. It was done. The world's story is done. You also listed atelier games twice. Though it seems you just don't actually like Gust's style. Mainline Tales games have been consistently better than gen 6 offerings even if their quality flucates between gen 7/8 titles. In terms of freedom of combos, movement, AI that doesn't fucking drop dead the instant you look the other way. Also in terms of NOT having characters whose entire purpose is to just sit off in a corner and watch cast animations. The amoutn of dedicated casters/healers has been going down and that's a GOOD thing because you have more actual gameplay But nah, there be tiddies. So it's bad. Fuck you.

Bwcuase its a GAME. Do you not understand what a game is? A playable enjoyable medium to pass time and challenge yourself. Why in gods fucking name would I spend that time staring at some 3D nonfictional modeled butt (Which by the way does not fucking exist) instead of actually trying to get high scores and playing a game for what it actually is? Laugh all you want. but your porn exists on every other medium and the internet. It has no reason to exist in-game in its medium nor to eb a selling point. its sad, pathetic, and the people who worship it are bottom of the barrel greasers who have nothing better to look up to in life. THATS why.

I've only been recently looking into game stores such as origin steam etc and I'm appalled at the amount of fragmentation and jewry there's in these modern games.

They are usually sold with 3 different packages, season pass and a bunch of other crap.

How does people put up with this.

I miss the day when you would play a game and have the full, wholesome experience.

Gaming as a service is absolutely cancerous. I guess I cannot support this. It's dead.

I have to say both their butts are fucking sexy. Thongs on both. Clearly some booty flab on both. Left has thicker thighs which I generally find sexy, but since right has slimmer thighs her butt cheeks pop out more.

They both have those kind of butts you just want to take a big, juicy bite off. I can imagine how soft they are just by looking at them.

Do we know if any of these fine ladies have booty jiggle? Or are their butts not quite that plump?

>Final fantasy
Cashed in on lightning as a sex icon in 13's era. All it sold itself on is LOOK AT THIS PINK HAIRED SEX TOY!
>Breath of fire
Kat. Which also marks the decline of the series you millenial shitter
>Tales of
Are you kidding me, ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING? Look at any thread on Sup Forums RIGHT now and tell me Berserria is anything game related over "VELVAT ISH MAU WAIFU"
>Altelier
Declines since the PS1 era, became nothing but fanservice since shalie
>Ar to
Ar tonelico 3. 1 and 2 were subtle and fun, 3 was slapped on a M rating and stripped the girls for power ups. You tell me that isnt blatant fucking fanservice.
>Metroid
Zero suit samus post ZM. All thanks to smash screenshot function. Fuck brawl.
>Castlevania
GO take a look at whats become of it now, Erotic pachinko machines, need I say anymore?
>Megaman
ZX, Starforce and everything nu-roll thanks to fucking Call.

But please, continue to try to prove me wrong, I've got all bloody day bloke.

i agree op


i think that just means games have stagnated and failed miserably at making use of their potential


but nice booty never seems to get old

Excessive fan-service is a big red flag that a game is shit. Besides, no officially released game could even compare to the specific fetishes actual porn caters to these days.
You might as well try and fap to gymnastics videos on any sport channel.

Porn doesn't do it for me.

Video games are the only way to get aroused.

The best ones are the games that are designed by developers who cater to sensitive groups by making their females intentionally unattractive or very heavily dressed- then using mods or other means to hyper-sexualize those characters in an ironic hate-attraction. Either that or exaggerating already sexualized characters to the point of mockery.

Haha thats rich OP., now let's try being honest shall we?

Truth is you grew up and you prefer looking at women over videogames. There is no games are getting worse but fanservice is getitng better, you're just more self aware of it because you have yet to pro-create and your body is screaming at you.

>Zero Suit post ZM
Yeah, right...

>Ar tonelico 1 and 2 were subtle
>That breath of fire bullshit

you have brain damage
this is the reason why no one irl talks to you and you resort to posting your shit opinions on korean basket weaving image boards

28 years and I will never understand the appeal of porn. I get sex, thats all and fine, but who the fuck spends an hour just looking at a picture to relieve themselves to? Thats just weird.

I tried it once in the Newgrounds era when all those flash portals were the rage and the stuff was so abysmally drawn I nearly threw up instead.

Because I already have a girlfriend and a happy lfie, and I'm sick and tired of videogames these days trying to force fictional 2D whores on me in some romance/relationship segment when I want none of that.

You sincerely have issues. Once, again.
Lightning didn't sell shit.
Are you seriously saying BoF 2 is the series' decline? WHAT FUCKING SERIES THEN IF IT WAS DEAD TO YOU FROM THE SECOND ENTRY? Fucking moron.
Have you PLAYED Berseria? Have you fucking played the game. The current games atually need something other than doing one combo, blocking the boss's counter, and repeating. Maybe side-stepping. The attack-specific weakness exploitation is one of the best fucking things to happen to the series.
Also, I find it hilarious that you're talking about Atelier going down when YOU DIDN'T MAKE IT THROUGH THE FIRST TRILOGY. This can't be real. Because you're just so full of shit it's hilarious. And that is of course, assuming you read japanese in which case go shitpost on 2ch. You'll find a lot more sympathetic ears. You're not actually talking about gameplay at all, again.
Castlevania is a konami product. Konami wants nothing to do with video games. That's not news at all. Pachinko gives a much better return on effort/payoff. Gambling is a hell of a revenue stream. It's not a coincidence that Konami's western headquarters are in Las Vegas and they make more money off of gambling games and machines than video games.
Are you seriously bitching about ZX? And Starforce? Starforce was a fucking breath of fresh air and attempt to do something DIFFERENT. And you're bitching. God you're mentally deficient. Are you in elementary school and think you can't like anything because it has GUUURLS in it?

God your typing style is horrid. Get that checked for all our sakes.

It's not "GUUUURLS" Its "BOOBS BUTTS BAM, BAM BOOBS BUTTS CHEST" opver and over and OVER.

See, you didn't even read. Why should I waste my time when you can't even digest simple logic?

It doesn't help that the AAA industry stopped even pretending to try, now all they do is do their damndest to shove both hands in your pocket to grabble your wallet out so they can begin swiping your credit cards to try to max them out buying horse anus armor paid DLC microtransactions. At least Fanservice has EFFORT put into it, unlike your modern AAA survival crafting sandbox open world "Skyrim" game or these cashgrabbing "Remasters" of last-gen xbox360/ps3 games. Toobie's Booty is technology as FUCK, just WATCH that real-time water evaporation as her butt dries.

No, you're the one that doesn't have anything to say. You don't respond to the fact that you're claiming that you enjoyed game series but then turn around and say that they've been in decline for as long as they've been a series. Also, Ar Tonelico was anything but subtle. Especially with installing. If that was subtle to you, then it was a m,atter of you being dense and it going entirely over your head.

Ar Tonelico was T, Ar to 3 was needlessly M. Installing is an innuendo, Stripping off clothes is flat out pornography. BIG difference me boyo, not that a horndog like you would understand aye?

> it has to be good

Change the model then is it still 90/100 good?

How is fan service a "surprise factor?" Especially when you're almost fucking 30. What a loser.

Got it, you've got no counterargument. Also, ratings don't necessarily correlate to content. Shadow Hearts was rated M while Shadow Hearts Covenant had exotic dancing, nudity in multiple cutscenes, and a bizzare reverse-oedipus complex where a woman can't get with the man she loves so she gets with his father as the next best thing.... and then mothers and raises him because time travel. That got a T rating.

Mein gott you are dense!

Ar tonelico 2 had a great combat system, turn based, good rhythmn timing presses, the works. It was an enjoyable RPG and T rated.

Ar Tonelico 3 scrapped ALL of that in favor of a run around nonsense system like Tales without anything that makes tales enjoyable. You have no combos, your specials are laughable. The ONLY, OOOOOOOOOOONLY reason people played Ar To 3 was because Saki and fennel would go nudie when they hit hyper. THAT was the draw of the game now, you completely killed a good game all for some pointless fanservice of some buttugly unlikeable whores. Good job Gust. A fucking + mate.

>Fanservice
>A surprise factor

Jesus christ, arre you like the weird old man who sits infront of his TV with a creepy grin anytime his animu girls show up on screen? Get the fuck off Sup Forums and get some goddamn sunlight you vampiure.

Ar Tonelico 3 sold on the coattails of the first 2. For people who wanted closure to the story. Nobody in their right mind went in with high expectations of it. Fanservice entirely aside the red flags were abundant. First 3d game by Gust, first real-time combat system, it built heavily off of side materials not deemed worth it to officially translate, and despite all that it did have positive points to it. Like it was one of the best uses of actively remixing battle music to suit battle progression. Something I don't think had been done yet outside of Skies of Arcadia yet. Also, it brought closure to the world. It may not have been what people wanted, but it did exactly what they said it would. Still waiting on your explanation for the other bullshit you spewed. Or at least expanding upon it.

>zx
>star force

Those games had no fanservice. And they were good.

Look at these fat, sexy butts.

Can you imagine a woman in real life with a butt as plump as Vanessa's or 2B's, walking around in a thong? They would never dare, because they would be ashamed of their booty flab.

But these girls are proud of it! This is why vidya girls>>>real girls

...

This. Not all of us want butts in our face just because we want to play the next installment of a series we've always liked.

Subtle fanservice that doesn't distract the game > Cutscene fanservice >>>>> Playable fanservice >>>>>>>>>> Marketed fanservice>>>>>>>>>>>>> Outright Porn
