>video game journalist can't play basic 2d game
>IT'S YOUR FAULT FOR PUTTING VALUE ON SKILL

>skill fetishist
Even worse than a woman fetishist, yuck.

>stop being good at things

western civilization is doomed

Is this the same one?

I'm not going to read this article, but I will say that arguing about ""skill"" is some of the dumbest shit around.

Jesus...

You mean western (((civilization)))

I saw this on Reddit too *tips*

How can anyone fucking defend this?

Was the bird's wings clipped or something? Why didn't he just use his wings for a little extra height?

>Employment culture needs to stop fetishizing skill

Spot on, videogames are meant to be fun and entertaining not necessarilly challenging or overwhelming.

Here's a face to go with those stupid fucking words.

>The act of play itself is but one method of experiencing what we call a “videogame” in modern critical discussions.
I want off this crazy ride.

>Dante Douglas is a writer, poet and game developer.
Millennials.

What's up Dean? Did you pass the first level?

>sports culture needs to stop fetishizing skill
>craftsmanship culture needs to stop fetishizing skill
>music culture needs to stop fetishizing skill

SKILL SHOULD BE PUNISHED
INADEQUACY SHOULD BE PRAISED

YOU CAN'T DO A THING? THAT'S FINE, YOU GET A GOLD STAR FOR TRYING, AND ANYBODY WHO CALLS YOU OUT FOR SUCKING SHIT WILL BE EXTERMINATED FOR THEIR INTOLERANCE.

I believe it's in a closed area. Flying, especially lifting off, takes a lot of space. It's probably just clipped wings, but if it's in a tight spot it won't try to take off.

>There is an assumption that in order to be a good games critic, you have to be good at games.

No. Not good. Just minimally competent to beat a fucking tutorial.

The point is not the difficulty level but the basics skills that should be required to analyze a game.

Welcome to an industry so far up its own ass that it hasn't seen the sun in years.

Imagine pretending to be a movie buff because you've watched someone else review some movies.

COMMIES GET OUT REEEEEE

Birds are notoriously the laziest pieces of shit animals on earth. They could fly across a stream but would rather hitch a ride on the back of a mammal than do that.

Are these people actual journalists or just some random that writes articles?

>Games are stories, conversations between player and world, and conversations between designers and viewers.

Videogame culture needs to stop fetishizing traditional narrative mechanics as part of video games

it's never enough, this is why enabling, promoting, accepting, forgiving averageness was never a good thing, it will never be enough, things will get dumber and dumber and everyone suffers in the end because of it.

>Be shit at cooking
>Try making a dish using a recipe
>It tastes awful and makes you sick because you're shit at cooking
>"Wow that recipe was shit, I don't recommend it"
That's literally people's argument in this situation. Defending themselves because they're in the wrong and can't admit it.

>lover of horrible things

So that's why he wrote this article...

Post more birds

It's not so much an assumption that you have to be good at games to be a game critic as it is a a fact that there's a baseline level of skill necessary to be a game critic. Unlike movies or books games require you to actively participate and effectively interact in order to fully experience them. If you're not capable of that then it's hard to truly take on your criticism

What's the difference?

So almost quite literally pic related?

>Huh, why do I need to read this book to criticize it? A friend told me what happened in it

Today I will remind them.

All video game critics should be above average. If you suck at playing video games, that will reflect on the score.

Video games are designed for you to shit on the opposition or get shat on accordingly.

People who play video games these days have near single digit IQs like

they're right

This man is an absolute product. I don't even believe he is any of the things he claims in that blurb deep down, but his superficial personality is the bare-minimum default of modern American society. I wouldn't be surprised if this was all done on purpose.

>Olympic Sports Culture needs to stop fetishizing skill

no they aren't
