Gaming is better now.

>The game world is just a mishmash of 3D objects!
>Trust me, I'm a 3D designer I know what I'm talking about

As opposed to... what, literally any 3D game ever?

>sonic was never good

l like khezu and plesioth.

>mega man x6 was bad
the ultimate brainlet opinion in the fanbase

>touhou is good

People that honestly think this piss me off.
The game industry is practically just as bad as hollywood right now, costs and investment risk keeps growing, and no one is truly willing to take a risk anymore, resulting in retreading the same ideas over and over again.

It took them nearly a DECADE just to move away from military shooters, to then go back to Twitch shooters again.

Video games turned to shit after the PS2 era.
Even with a higher rate of releases, it just results in MORE rehashes, and MORE trash.

Hitman Absolution and Bioshock 2 are good games

Bioshock 2 had better gameplay than the first, but is worse in all other aspects.

Absolution is alright.

I was in that thread too. Fuck that guy especially - it's like people just run out of things to criticise the game for, and then turn to pedantic bullshit like "th-there's a bit of clutter in certain areas, therefore the world design is bad! H-haha got 'em!"

I swear to christ Soulsborne threads are garbage.
It's giving me flashbacks to old EVA threads on Sup Forums.

>Horizon Zero Dawn is actually good!

>Dark Souls II is underrated! It's actually the best game in the series.

I agree, but apprently alot of people don't like Bioshock 2 and Hitman Absolution

Literally any user review for Monster Hunter World

tldr: babbys first time playing a Monster Hunter game

>newer games are always better than older games, we've made so many advancements in game design!
I know too many people with this actual shit opinion and it fucking kills me every time they bring it up. One standout example is a guy I know who is genuinely glad that fpses got slower as a whole because he can't handle movement any faster than siege.

Souls threads have been shit ever since Dark Souls came out on PC.

They were comfy as shit during Demon's Souls and Dark Souls initial release, and then the shitposting turned into MAXIMUM SPERG-DRIVE after Dark Souls II came out, which while deservedly got bumfucked, tainted all future discussion.

I like slower shooters, makes them more tactical.

Normies always confuse technological advancement, with advancement in game design.
It will never not be frustrating to deal with people shitting on older games because of "muh realism" and "muh cinematic hollywood experience"

I have a guy in class who's favorite Adventure game (according to himself it is one), is fucking Uncharted, because "The story is like Indiana Jones. You can't get more adventurous than that."

Sure, I also like more tactical shooters. If anything my all time favorites are slower than the kind of games im talking about. I just hate that his entire reasoning for hating faster paced shooters is "I cannot handle faster movement". It really just pisses me off that he thinks it's an objective improvement to the core design, and that shooters were just shit before they got slower.

God, reminds me of this autistic discussion I had with a dude about video games and animtion.
He consistently insisted that canned animation are cutscenes, despite cutscenes having it's own destinct definition.

I had to explain to him that characters being locked in an animation, doesn't mean a cutscene is playing.
He'd literally equate a character picking something up with it being a "cutscene", because cutscene = animation, in his mind.

Video games are fun

Megaman X5 was the best in the series

Slay the Spire is full of content

Vinesauce is Not Boring

Probably 80-90% of the complaints I've seen about Xenoblade 2

>I tried it and didn't like the story/characters/gameplay

Fine, fair enough I think you're missing out but I can understand why >It gets better later is a meme tier answer.

>It's sexist! I hate the designs, why is Pyra dressed so slutty!?

Literally got this one from a friend who writes porn for a hobby. I can't imagine being this booty-blasted by fanservice.

>It's a waifu collector! Misogynist! The girls are your slaves

Stop getting your opinions from Dunkey you retard. The Blades have free will, they can defy or betray their Driver on a whim. We even see cases where the Blade is the boss of the relationship.

>It takes too long to kill anything! The combat is just auto-attacking! All the fights take minutes!

This one legit triggers me because this is gamer journalism level of retarded. Just completely unable to play the game or follow the mechanics.

what the fuck

I agree.

But the other side is equally terrible. They handwave away all the flaws of the older games (especially pre-internet games where opinions weren't affected by thousands of people ravenous to hate a game) and constantly shit on the newest entry, ignoring all kinds of things that would get the game they claim is better ripped to shreds these days.

Dark Souls is, imo, far better than DeS. Yet every DaS thread when it came out was full of DeS players bemoaning their series being ruined.

Try talk about FE without having Americans shoving the first GBA game to hit the west down your throat. At least with Ikebabbies you can understand they just really like the character...

Etc etc etc

Shit, let alone Pokemon fans fighting over which generation was good.

Or WoW for which expansion...

I will never understand people that like Pubg.
I have friends who play it several hours a day, with over 1000 hours played.

I ended up buying it, and it just reeks of shit design.
The retarded game area shrinking circle is probably what kills it the most. It's such a shitty solution to get players to move.
It's almost entirely based on where the majority of players land in the first minutes of the game, resulting in anyone who landed further away being forced to run out in the open and be killed, and lose out better equipment, just so they can get within the safe-zone. It's so fucking random whether you actually get into a good position or not. And good fucking luck finding a vehicle when you need it, because that's also random.

Speaking of random, everything is fucking randomized in this piece of shit game.
The odds aren't determinable´before a a game starts, at all.
You just gotta assume that you're gonna get killed after spending 10 minutes looting, because that's 99% of all matches.

For a Battle Royale inspired game, weaponry is also way too easily acquired. Like why the fuck are there AK-47s and Thompsons littering the game world.

I digress; it's shit, and I don't accept that it's an actually good game.

EYE Divine Cybermancy is a good game

>advent children is not canon to FFVII because Tifa wasn’t white

You know this was criticism used to shit on metal gear rising

people who prefer "cinematic" 30fps to 60fps drive me up a wall.
I'm pretty sure most on Sup Forums are just pretending because they know people get mad, but these people need to be euthanized for the good of society.

I honestly think Demon's Souls is better than Dark Souls, but because of what Dark Souls doesn't do, rather than what it does better, compared to Demon's Souls.

The focus of the series became very different post-Dark Souls 1 - noticeably after Artorias of the Abyss. A lot more about the action, than being an RPG. Demon's Souls had a lot of unique moments and design choices that weren't present in Dark Souls, and Dark Souls cast aside some genuinely cool shit present in Demon's Souls, rather than improving on those systems.
The overall series has moved quite far away from what the series actually was.
Now its all about 'muh honorabru 1v1 arena pvp / boss fight with 7 different phases.'


But yeah, regardless, I agree that a lot of older games simply didn't have anywhere near as much information out in the open due to the internet, and nowadays we just have a lot more opinions being shared.

Nah, it was actually him being a retard about Grim Fandango.

>I'd rather the series die than take another direction
Like Jesus nigga. Just drop the series, no reason to stop everybody else's fun.

>[Insert Dark Souls or related game] is bad.

That's pretty much the new God of War.

People would honestly rather have a mediocre clone series with a greek mythological reskin, than a game that genuinely tries something different.
