neogaf and reddit

Faggots like OP crying all the time.

>point out video games are being politicized by the left and it's hurting the industry demonstrably.
>"FUCK OFF BACK TO Sup Forums!!!!!!!!!!!"

Anime

What's the point of Sup Forums?

>Only the left is politicizing games when the right won't shut the fuck up about politics in games

Ironic shitposting

Everything is just fine, it was always shit and thats where i thrive.

Phone posters + anime + sarkeesian + journalism + reddit influx from election

I dunno but I feel 2013 was the real decline where everything went to shit, just absolute shit.

Thats website wide problem

Video games suck

you should fuck off to Sup Forums

>noticing propaganda and resisting is problematic
>you can only say yes and yes only
Its like i am really in neogaf.

this guy

>everyone who don't like progressive crap should fuck off to Sup Forums

I never been to Sup Forums yet i get sent to it everyday for not embracing pinko shit, have you ever considered that not everyone browsing this site is a white usa liberal?

you have to wait for the children to grow up before they stop acting like little shits
unfortunately it's only ~late 20s do they become capable of objectively criticizing themselves

show me any instance of the right politicizing video games to the extent that the left does it.

Constant Wojak posting.

>>>reddit

FUCK YOU

>inserts politics in games
>people don't like it
>STOP NOTICING IT

When has the right released a mainstream video game with right-wing underpinnings? Face it: the industry is insanely liberal and insanely up its own ass about that liberalism. Right-wingers are essentially forbidden from participating.

people here don't actually play games

Mods not doing their jobs.

Sup Forums invading during gamergate and not leaving.
redditards who think they are epic memesters for getting their threads deleted.
forced memes everywhere.
threads derailed by said forced memes.
not enough reports/janitors/mods to take care of that shit. Hell, I'm sure not a single person applied for Sup Forums from the janitors applications from a few days ago.

...

>taking a meme and trying to turn it around
The left truly can't meme

the left can't meme

they are busy deleting the ugandan knuckles threads, the barneyfag and the ironic weeb chart posts.

Porn, politics and e-celebs can wait.

Your reddit meme isn't permabanned from this place.

Definitely not video games

redditors keeps raping wojaks corpse

Consolefags fighting other Consolefags and pc fags.
Looking at exclusives in positive light.
Pol and reddit left pol equivalent polarizing people even harder.
Generals turn this place to reddit 0.5

But mostly all of fucking Sup Forums forgot one rule: don't spoonfeed the newfags, tell them to lurk moar.

There isn't a lot of mods for the whole of Sup Forums, and I doubt we have a lot of janitors even though we are the 2nd or 3rd most visited board.

metacritic

mods not letting people talk

The problem I see is that games are either indie garbage not worth discussing or AAA garbage pandering to the lowest common denominator of idiot. There's not a steady stream of shit in the middle. Unlike other boards, there are huge droughts of shit to talk about, so you shitpost.

Sup Forums and Sup Forums are insufferable during dry spells.

literally get rid of all moderation on Sup Forums and this place would get a whole lot better. i'm being completely serious

You guys must be the dumbest fucks in existence.

>criticizing corporations or shitty business practices = you're a communist

Oh, and no one actually wants to engage in discussion, just respond to shitposts that make them angry and fish for You's. How many times do you reply to an user and get no response?

you really should fuck off back to Sup Forums

yeah reddit communists pls go

>inserts politics in games that go against your beliefs
>people who share those ideology like it
>you shouldn't give the game attention

so yeah, stop noticing it, exactly.

This desu. Some threads are ok, but most of them are just full of shitposters replying to each other while people who are actually trying to discuss the games get ignored.

you cant deny the board would get a lot more interesting and fun

We need a great cleansing.

Even in the okay threads, it's different than it used to be. Most posts used to get replies and anons would have multiple conversations going on in posts. The brevity has also gone up. I blame phoneposters, but that's only half the problem.

Irony in general really hurt Sup Forums. Nothing feels organic and genuine anymore. It's just people trying way too hard to stir up shit and force memes.

I do feel that Sup Forums generally goes on about politics way more than it used to.

Absolutely. No one should be allowed to post a thread that just contains a period in the text field. Also anyone just posting "kys" as a reply should be banned.

removal of dubs
not making the board nsfw
wordfiltering

Wojakposting.

Shitposter became the mayority

I do miss 2012 ironic stuff like Master Ruseman, but I do feel that irony has gotten way out of hand these days.

Hi there Sup Forumsddit

>>What went wrong?
On this board in particular?
>ecelebs
>Sup Forums
>brainless contrarianism
This board is a prime example as to why contrarian should require a license (or at least French citizenship since they're the only ones that do it right)
>corporate shills
"who needs single player anyway? lel"
t. dumbshit EA posters that let Titanfall 1 tank
>noncorporate shills
Drakengard 3 was pushed comically hard for such a poor game
>reaction image spam

So on and so forth.

What killed all discussion on Sup Forums was strawmen.

If someone says something you don't like, you can call them reddit, Sup Forums, tumblr, SJW, antiSJW, /r9k/, neogaf, ameriburger, eurofag, facebook, mobileposter, nu-Sup Forums, neo-Sup Forums, /lgbt/, /vg/, gaia, neopets, /mlp/ etc etc etc

And instantly all discussion is dropped, because then the debate is "I'm not [strawman] - you are"
>boy what a [strawman] thing to say
>only [strawman] likes thing you like
>only [strawman] don't like thing
>you sound awfully [strawman] when you say that
>I can tell from how you use full stops and question marks that you are from [strawplace]
>how would you know that if you didn't go to [strawplace]
>hello [strawman]!

And the SJW/antiSJW shitflinging is even worse. Threads here constantly reach their limit without anyone having said anything, just throwing these worthless strawmen at each other. And it's only gotten worse every year for the past 5 years. It will never stop.

BRING BACK DUBS

Moot sold out

Sjws bought the board filled it with faggots

>All posts that bring attention to Sup Forums's problems are deleted or sent to /qa/
>Everyone on /qa/ is a weeb

it's been on a downward spiral for over a decade now
every year i think it couldnt possibly get worse here it does

It's almost like right wingers are pieces of shit

I love anime

F

I made excatly the same thread and after it was pruned the mods banned me for 3 days becuase the quality of the posts here are extremly important

>The board known as Sup Forumseddit calling anyone else Reddit

...

For me personally, I just got older and now find the obvious teenage posters irritating. I do still enjoy having discussions here and just avoid the obvious shitposting threads that I would have gotten sucked into a few years ago.

your body is similar to mine its creepy dude

yah dude standing up for your own people or your own country totally makes you a piece of shit we should just have open borders n shiet. also fuck whitey.

Same

So this is the level of comedy we can expect from people who make threads about liberals on Sup Forums every single day

>removal of dubs
Do you really want dubs? Do you really want people to wield such power of derailing threads? People ruined many video game related threads with that bullshit, not just offtopic ones.

Having black people in a video game isn't politicising shit, blubbering about white genocide because of it is.

More indicative of the greater problem is this refusal to engage in a conversation. You ask a question or have some facts to back up your point and you get ignored. You do some low effort bait or talk entirely in memes and everyone wants a piece of you. It makes me think that anons on this board don't want what made Sup Forums good because they aren't capable of it.

thread theme

that's the biggest problem, mods are biased.

He's probably similar to 90% of the board.

something like that, I'd rather have lefty games than right wing ones.

>People ruined many video game related threads with that bullshit, not just offtopic ones.

I also remember there being threads on Sup Forums that were made just to get dubs.

The human race is your own people you dumbass

and id rather have right wing games than lefty ones

for all the bitching this board does the progressive shit is pretty minor. We still have blood and tits galore in games if thats what you're looking for. Does the existence of walking simulators somehow negate shit like neir automata or XC2?

guess we should make some then, instead of expecting the industry to conform to our desires.

Sup Forumsosers.

everyone is too fucking political
like, shitflinging about nothing is too goddamn common now, and if you disagree with someone, you get called a soyboy or some other insult.
I don't even know, nor do I care to know, what side of the political spectrum "soyboy" came from, because I just want to talk about vidya for chrissake

>WOW LOOK AT THIS FAT GENDERSEXUAL PERSON CAN'T YOU FEEL HOW GAY HE IS RIGHT NOW HE'S ALSO YOUR SIDE-KICK AND HE/SHE/IT CAN HACK
>OH MY GOD WHY IS THERE A GAY PERSON IN THE GAME WOW THOSE SJW SOYBOY KEKS REALLY HAVE OUT-DONE IT WITH THE REPRESENTATION OF THEIR BELIEFS
Two-party was a mistake

liiikkeee duuuuuudddeee we are all equal and the same dude. there are no differences ;) one race the human race ;)

The problem is leftism is considered the default, so even people not politically invested will side with them if they think it means the "conflict" will be over sooner.

right on dude, you finally got it.

The last time the board got "a lot more interesting and fun" we had no discussions about anything and we lost the ability to get double digits.

>A man in a video game says they prefer penis
>Instant 20+ Daily threads about it for a week
It's a good thing we have the lads at Sup Forums working day and night to protect us from the gay instead of playing some fucking video games.

guess we should

Honestly, I miss what Sup Forums used to be like during the early 2010's, when Sup Forums had stuff like Galo Sengen, dragon dildos, Ainsley posting, Mystery of the Druids, Synchtube, Ace of Spades, Doodle or Die, Adam Jensen posting, etc.
