Breath of the Wild was exactly the ideal Zelda he described in Sequelitis and it's one of the most well received games ever made.
When can you admit that he was completely right about Ocarina of Time and game design in general?

>Hates Sonic
Opinion discarded

No shit, you want a bozo pin or a chest to pin it on.

EgoRaptor knows a LOT about game design, but he's such a terrible communicator that it pretty much doesn't matter.

Because his opinions are garbage and he's terrible at OoT
BOTW also has flaws but they get shitposted to death here anytime people try to talk about them

He's terrible at OoT (I mean TERRIBLE) but he's still right about it.

>he's right about a game he's shit at playing and doesn't understand
his Goron escort mission suggestion was the worst critique of OoT I've ever heard

>always hated Gorons ever since they were introduced
>BotW makes me do a Goron Escort mission
>for the first time ever, I wind up caring about a Goron

>can't figure out how to win a SNES game for 8-year olds
>knows game design

Of all words spoken in tongue or pen, none are as horrifying as these
Ego was right again

>People bash him for doing a not-speedrun 100% 20 minute completion of OoT
>"WOW HE SUCKS AT ZELDA OPINION DISCARDED"

>Meanwhile user somewhere eats a really shitty sandwich at a restaurant and nearly dies from it
>"YOU CAN'T COOK SO YOUR OPINION DOESN'T MATTER, THIS SANDWICH IS FLAWLESS 20/10"

sorry for choppiness, OBS was being a dick

>BOTW also has flaws but they get shitposted to death here anytime people try to talk about them
My favorite was the "you haven't played it" excuse that they kept using unless you posted a timestamped picture of you playing along with a picture of your ID card and a DNA sample to prove that it's actually you.

>the dungeons in this game kinda suck
>you haven't even played it
>here's a timestamped picture of the game in it's box
>and a timestamped picture of the hours I've played
>lol it's all photoshopped you still haven't played it

Deku nuts are uninteresting as combat mechanics

>says other M is a good game
he had good points in most of his sequelitis videos but hes a fucking retard. beyond that if you take anything he says seriously you're a fucking retard

your mom's vagina has been a really uninteresting combat mechanic ever since she had you

I wish BotW had majora mask mechanics so I could turn into a goron and roll across the entire field.

I've said it once, and I'll say it again, botw is alright, but shit compared to older zeldas.
Zelda wii u was hyped up so much, but what we got instead was a mediocre compromise for the sake of muh open world zelda.

Other M is good in terms of third person Metroid

You clearly haven't played it.

When Sidon said that Zora are weak to electricity I thought that's what we'd be getting

>Aonuma is asked during an interview if he's taking inspiration from any other games for BotW
>literally shouts, "Skyrim!"
>announcement/reveal video has a "see that mountain?" moment
>wandering the field one day starved for something interesting
>come upon two NPCs fighting a field monster in realtime
>think to myself "That's pretty cool, seems kinda familiar th-"

IT'S JUST

FUCKING

*****SKYRIM*****

YES I MAD. TAKE THIS 10/10. IT'S THE ONLY ONE THIS GAME DESERVES

Skyrim is literally just a first person walking simulator

>not baiting them and one-hitting them in the back

The only thing missing to not make it just a better version of the N64 Zeldas is the lacking Dungeon design.

as is botw

>not exploring the effectiveness of different strats on successive playthroughs

scrub. cleaner, whatever

>the only thing missing to make this better than the old games is a significant part of what made the old games good in the first place

yeah no shit that's why it's BAD

>M-MUH GAMEFEEL
>streams himself playing like a fucking retard

>Botw is first person
>Botw doesn't have combat mechanics

Is it weird that I read you text in Arin's voice subconciously ?

>Skyrim combat mechanics
>dumbed down skill trees

>BotW combat mechanics
>every weapon is the Giant's Knife and there's bullet time

>When can you admit that he was completely right about Ocarina of Time and game design in general?
Because he wasn't right about Ocarina of Time or game design at all in that video. Anyone could describe general concepts of an ideal video game that could be the best game ever made or the worst game ever made. The basic foundation of the game is not the most important part of game design or hard to nail down, it's the fine details, which he never did provide because that's the hard part.

...Do my eyes deceive me, or did you literally say you didn't like him because he hates Sonic? Outside of /sthg/, no less?

>The basic foundation of the game is not the most important part of game

Actually, that reminds me: Doesn't the Sup Forums Empire hate Skyrim as much as it hates every other Bethesda game that isn't Morrowind and occasionally Oblivion?

>"I loved ALttP because no niggers where in it!"
How did he get away with this?

Yes

And as a result Nintenkiddies of today's world that browse this board have probably never even played it to know for themselves

8-year-olds don't post ass shots of anime chicks.

An open world game where you climb towers to unlock parts of the map and in the overworld you find missions and dungeons to explore along with busywork including crafting and cooking.

Did I describe Breath of the Wild or Farcry 4? That's the entire point you faggot. Broad general concepts could end up being fucking anything. Would you say that those two games are the exact same game?

what would stop them

But setting up for an attack and then striking in the back is the most cost effective and probably the most time-saving maneuver you could possibly do in that situation.
You can't fool me. I'm a professional.

Why does he hate Sonic, anyway? Does he hate all of them or just the 3D games?

I won't stop you if that's how you want to play it. I played it that way for going on 10 years now myself. Now I'm trying to see what else is possible in the game.

>10 years

20*. Jesus fucking Christ

>food analogy.

Also he only says it's bad because he's bad at the game.

All of them, and a lot of it boils down to the same shitty complaints that most game reviewers have which stems from a general misunderstanding of what the core design actually is and also being bad at the game.

The fact that they're too uneducated to know anything about girls than "they're pretty"? You don't get an understanding about finding body parts sexy until you're 10 or 11.

>a general misunderstanding of what the core design actually is
Oh, goody, the tired "it's about speed/ speed is the reward" conflict.
Let me guess, he thinks the former?

why does Arin draw himself thin when he is a fat fuck?

Of course, he bought into the literal advertising hype cycle of WHOA SONIC'S MY NAME SPEED'S MY GAME GOTTA GO FAST HA HA CHILI DOGS and gets mad when he can't hold right to win, refusing to understand that the reason why enemies and obstacles are constantly put in your path is precisely because the game is not about hold right to go fast and win.

You didn't know Egoraptor.

Food analogy because it's all you fat fucks can understand LOL

>sex drive and societal standards for beauty
>requiring education

dude are you stupid? like yeah, ideally someone so young wouldn't have a sex drive whatsoever, but keep in mind kids nowadays get smartphones with unrestricted internet access when they're like 5

he was alot slimmer at the time of making the zelda sequilitis

>OoT dungeons
>good
Block puzzles, keys, the entire goron saving part of the fire temple, Ganon's Tower and a shitload more. This was stuff that worked in 2D because it took less time to push a block or cross a dozen rooms than it did in OoT. It's boring when you have to take time and break out of an explorable world. Majora's Mask and Wind Waker did a better job of giving you tools and challenging you to use them in unique ways.

Why? He has literally no experience with games outside of playing them.

yes, back in 2011 Skyrim was criticized for being dumbed down even more than Oblivion was and for the numerous bugs. Opinions might have changed because mods and/or Sup Forums is mostly underaged

This retard don't know jack fuck about designing anything

I remember he was on some YouTube celebrity dance contest, holy shit someone should gun this insect down


I bet he didn't even graduate high school

Apparently neither did you.

Either that you need to go back to the other side of the wall Pablo

>I had to wait three seconds for a chest to open? Fucking bullshit maaaan

>implying

Arin may be shit at critiquing as well as playing video games but goddammit he's pretty funny sometimes

I thought everyone here unanimously hated this fuck

People on here actually unironically defend him now? He's literally everything that's wrong with this gen of people

getting too old for this place I guess

I'll admit that Arin is a blubbering retard who can't function when faced with simple taks

Arin is an idiot with shit opinions but I still find him entertaining.

I don't give a shit about him outside of his "awesome" series.

But you sound underage as fuck, leave until you turn 18

He sucks at video games and says everything is shit when he cant git gud,hes worse than fucking DSP

>When can you admit that
I'll admit he sucks at the very game hes memeing about and his opinion is shit

Nice to know that the dungeons were the problem with Zelda this whole time.

Just remove shrines altogether in the inevitable BotW2 desu.

I thought Good Game was kinda funny

A lot of his complaints are completely invalid about OoT though, like the one about the combat just being a waiting game. He's terrible at video games in general. Here's him "researching" OoT.

>complains about combat being dull while only using the sword
>complains about Hyrule Field despite having Epona

This analogy is retarded. It'd be more accurate to compare someone who can't eat or taste food properly being a food critic to Arin.
