yeah but as like a "last straw" kind of thing about even bothering with big budget games, but everyone in here seems to want to frame everything i say in the most extreme way possible for some reason
whoa whoa whoa, who in the fuck said "Johnny Silverhand means the game industry is over"? CDPR's trash writing and poor design decisions aren't killing any industry.
ITT gamers melt down and act like rowdy children when other people have opinions about games
edit: guys guys guys Larian studios will be fine, you don't need to defend them or shame me into compliance because BG3 doesn't look enjoyable to me. Jesus christ you'd think I was trying to take the game away from everyone.
edit2: guys capcom isn't going to sleep with you because you bravely defended the literally 40th Street Fighter title against some rando's disinterest and failure to hail it as a great moment in gaming or something. sheesh.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Street_Fighter_video_games also i went and checked just to see because i was curious, and it has seen near-annual releases since 1990. So like when I said anime fifa i meant like more my attitude towards it, but apparenty it's also (nearly) true the way you took it.
over a dozen different groups in three cities over the course of 20 years. i don't think the issue is luck, i think it's the culture around the game.
thanks doctor i'll take that into consideration
If I still have to put up with Johnny Silverhand then no sale, I had issues with the game beyond the bugs and emptiness of the world.
How can I hate a game I haven't played? All I've said it that it looks like a chore and I can't see myself playing it. I'm sorry you're butthurt someone else isn't impressed but don't go putting words in my mouth.
of course it isn't annual, who said that? I never said I hated it either, I'm just not interested. it's like nobody in here understands things like hyperbole, or figures of speech, or not caring about a niche genre. weirdos
after watching a BG3 gameplay video, I'd rather grind. it looks horrible to play.
you mean the games i kept saying you should talk about instead, while you continued harping on me for caring about a sequel to a game i played and liked a lot but not spider-man 2 even though they both have a 2? or whatever your moon-logic was.
bruh you went nuclear and started being an asshat because I wasn't impressed or interested by the 40th spider man game or the eleventeenth street fighter coming out and tried to turn it into a debate like a fucking neckbeard. go outside on occasion.
hint: that tracks because DnD is literally the least fun game I've ever made the mistake of trying to play
man are you still crying because I said I don't give a fuck about the billionth entry in a forty year old franchise, but was glad about a sequel to a puzzle game? get a fuckin life you loser.
watching more, ok i see the difference now and wow this looks so damn tedious to play. I didn't think they could make DnD any less appealing but they somehow pulled it off.
I don't play a niche game franchise enough to see the difference between last year's iteration and this one, therefore I must not like games at all. It's FIFA with anime characters to me, doesn't mean I don't like other things.
well that came later in the discussion after the cramming had begun and hey i was definitely wrong for that but it does look basically the same until you look close. telling me "go look up a video" was probably the worst way to explain what he meant so thanks for clearing up what that other person was trying to say. I hadn't looked into this game before but I already didn't think it sounded very interesting, and now I'm certain I don't want to play it.
I don't mind a fantasy aesthetic as a strict rule but the genre staples have been done to death, everything is stale dollar store middle-earth (with some le edge and gritte because GoT did well so gotta copy that) and I'm pretty over it. if it's got personality that's one thing but fantasy games almost never do anymore, it all sinks into that low-effort stock setting and medieval camp.
I'm not going to mention any particular game as my favorite because this is still basically reddit, and I am talkig to gamers, and my experience informs me that if I say what I like it will definitely be weaponized against me. But I do like platformers, driving games, turn-based strategy, spaceflight, and the odd RPG that manages to hit that rare sweet spot where it's not flavorless stock narrative but not incomprehensibly up its own ass either.
i already said i take it back, this looks way more tedious and chorelike than diablo, I'm getting that mixture of bored and frustrated just watching it
the twist is that several of the points in the meme are about The Witcher 3 specifically. Between that and Cyberpunk I'm not ever trusting anyone about a CDPR game being good again.
