Second best-selling game of all time after Tetris

>second best-selling game of all time after Tetris
>defined a generation of new players
>created its own genre

Every now and then, a game comes along that changes everything. Super Mario Bros. WoW. Minecraft.

What do you think the next industry-changing game will be, lads? I predict something to do with VR or augmented reality.

some VR waifu shit probably

>created its own genre
Didn't it copy some indie game? So it didn't create it

your prediction is wrong and you're stupid

Probably something like VR chat since it caters to gay weebs who have tons of money up their ass and need a platform to be faggots on.

Pokemon Go would have done it, but Nintendo cucked itself by holding back on the battle system.

If people really wanted waifu shit, you would have seen more waifu games by now.

>a full-fledged outdoor Pokemon experience taking advantage of modern mobile technology continuously improved upon and expanded

We dodged a bullet honestly. We can't handle this as a society until the roads are full or self-driving cars.

>when a mobile Pokemon game causes society to collapse because no one goes to work anymore and everyone wanders aimlessly on their smartphones instead

I can see this shit already happening, and we don't even have a killer AR game yet. That shit is going to be crazy when it hits.

Lootbox the game.

Maybe you'll win a car,
Most likely you'll lose everything

I only hope its with Monster Hunter and not Pokemon. It would be more interesting all around

VR for gaming will never take off unfortunately. The only games you can do in VR are shooting galleries and "do something with this object in your hand" games.
Even the BBC are telling people artificial locomotion is unpleasant.

>tfw I will be safe from madness because I am bound to wi-fi
I feel good about it. Let the world burn.

this
Just imagine the possibilities Pokemon Go would have if battling and Pokemon stats was as if it was an actual Pokemon game
Battles:
>Battles are issued if two opposing players are near each other
>Both parties earns XP, but winner gains alot more than the loser, also loser hands over money
>Combatants may take up to 24 hours for their turn, and does not have to be close to the opponent to keep the battle going
>You can challenge players you've encountered before, or added anytime
Money:
>Money is generated by literally walking
>Money is spent on the usual stuff, potions, pokeballs etc
Teams:
>The three big teams are completely removed, to emphasize individualism
>You may form your own teams
>Depending on team size, you may earn additional perks like increased encounter rates and team shopa with lowered prices
Turf-mode:
>All across the map, there are turfs spread out
>Controlling a turf grants increased encounter rates and additional XP and generated money
>Players takes over turf by winning 5 battles over the controlling team
>If no battle is accepted by turf controllers within 24-48 hours, it counts as a loss
Gyms:
>Gyms has nothing to do with turfs
>Defeating a gym trainer (not leader) gives you the option to replace them
>As a gym trainer, defeat all other gym trainers to challenge the gym leader
>This is optional, to get a gym badge you only need to defeat the gym leader
E4 and Champion:
>You have to consecutively beat the E4 before champion
>They can be challenged anytime after obtaining 8 badges
>E4 and champion has to accept a battle 7 times a week to keep their position

Wtf happened with that game anyways. I bought it back then and havent touched the game since forever. Did jeb managed to make it better

>Let the world burn.

You have to be 18+ to post here.

No, you actually don't

>You will immediately cease and not continue to access the site if you are under the age of 18.

It took elements from infiminer, but that's like saying Sonic copied Mario because they're both platformers.

>>You will immediately cease and not continue to access the site if you are under the age of 18.
That statement is just simply false

The industry consensus is that there are about a dozen technical barriers to mainstream VR acceptance. Go back 10 years, and there were twice that many.

Not saying it's around the corner, but VR is coming.

thank jesus you are right

>Super Mario Bros
>industry-changing
wat

Minecraft?

>Every now and then, a game comes along that changes everything.

What did WoW change???

wow changed appealing to the lowest common denominator
it irreparably damaged every gaming community that came before it by siphoning the players and turning them into mmo addicts

>I predict something to do with VR or augmented reality

did you just said augmented?

made it acceptable for you fucking normies to play video games. thats what.

casual gamers who played WoW didn't actually play another mmo after...

mmorpgs like Lineage, Mu Online, Ragnarok, Everquest, or even Archeage were very very popular and had a massive community way before WoW. Typical mmorpg gameplay was not influenced by WoW at the slightest.

click to walks definitely fell to the side when wow came out

Death Stranding

and now its dead because microsoft is killing mods who made it a thing in the first place

Knack 2

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Mario_Bros.

It destroyed MMOs and created the single biggest cancer on the planet

Just use mods.

>microsoft
>having anything to do with the death of modding
Amazon is the one killing modding my dude.
People have the source code to the java version, no one cares that a C++ one exists on an unused operating system.
However, curse letting modders get paid with adshekels and becoming the primary mod distribution platform, then buying out the biggest and shittest modpack distributor then and establishing nepotistic connections with mcp, forge, and mojang did actual serious damage.

not everyone on this planet is a weeb faggot you know

>What do you think the next industry-changing game will be, lads?

a game that most efficiently facilitates selling micro content packs and lootboxes whilst holding peoples interest for a long time like all the competitive big shots at the moment (Dota, CS, OW etc etc)

Or maybe the total opposite?
