Yea Forums talked me into playing and I went through the original and finished Automata this week. In truth, I would have preferred a Final Fantasy approach to it, yes, but going through the 9S point if view wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be.

Maybe for the 2010s, but for the generation, not sure.
This moment was great but is only amazing if you played RDR1. I think the best moment in the game was the attack on the Braithwaite Manor

That shit was cringe as fuck and way too drawn out.

But you can choose the best moments from each genre.For jrpgs we have nier automata,for hack-n-slash we have DMC V.for stealth we have MGSV,for horror we have RE2 or RE7 or Alien Isolation,for FPS we have Doom,for action adventure rpg we have Bloodborne,for story driven action game we have Uncharted 4.

My jaw dropped when this scene happened, I had a feeling in the pit of my stomach, but the weight of choosing who to kill was pretty fucking intense. The only complaint was I didn't realize how close I was to the ending when it happened. Even another hour of gameplay letting you come to terms with your decision playing as the survivor would have been incredible. Still love how it ends.

Undertale is more culturally and artistically significant than RDR2. It's also a better game than RDR2.

You either have to be totally uncultured or under the age of 20 to enjoy new rockstar games. It's not even worth arguing about. The games are so uninspired and corporate that them being bad is near self evident

You both hate things unnecessarily. RDR2 wasn't a bad game but it wasn't the best game either. Stop judging games based around how much you and other people like them and start judging them based on their actual merits. Christ Yea Forums is full of autists and haters.

>Arthur's I'm Afraid scene made me question my own morality
you should be embarassed by this. video game story-telling in the movie-like way games like RDR2 and Uncharted try to tell it aren't even within arms length compared to great works of literature or film.

>The WIther 3

The Witcher 3 is the best game I have played so far. I finished the game three times so far (one without guide and without expansions, one without guide but with expansions, and one with guide and expansions).

This game is so great. After you know how to avoid fall damage and you know what you can do, this game is a master piece. Even the gameplay is great. Sure, it's no Dark Souls, but it's decent.

The only reason why I would never recommend other to play The Witcher 3 is because it SO FUCKING LONG. You can easily spend 100 hours to finish a 100 % playthrough. Especially if you want to not get spoiled by guides, you have to replay the game.

Also for some people the Witcher senses can be extremely disappointing. Most of the time you will use them and that takes a lot of immersion away. But open world is always either a waste of time or it has things like Witcher senses which reduce your time finding the objective.

The reason why I consider BOTW bad is because it has no native 4k 60 fps. Sure, Cemu delivers a stable 4k 60 fps experience, BUT the game was created for the Switch. The trailer of BOTW showed how the game would have been looked like on PC, but thanks to the shit Nintendo hardware we have this empty mess where everything got reduced to literally mobile phone quality.

My tastes > your tastes is a long held ideology of this site you fucking newfag.

Idk how comparable those are but besides, good thing I didn't compare those two. Like it or not, Sans is a video game icon now and there's nothing anyone can do about it.

I couldn't force myself to wade through the unadulterated shit pile that was chapter 4 to finish the game. Did about 80 hours of fucking about in the woods and then quit.

The story for chapters 3 and 4 are beyond retarded and I don't get why people laud the game for having an amazing story.

no, really. I truly don't believe the game does anything really well beyond its size and it's production value. I think it's lauded because of those things.
If you have the perspective of an adult who's played a lot of games and thinks it's great, share it, because I don't see anything.

It's pretty, it's got mediocre gunplay, it's mission design is outdated, it's story is a standard high budget video game story that is completely at odds with the gameplay. What then

cut response but it doesn't address how within the context of story telling it does nothing special. It's a standard high budget video game story that is completely at odds with the gameplay.

This wasn't even the defining moment of the year in gaming. Maybe not even the month.

>it's story is a standard high budget video game story that is completely at odds with the gameplay
I feel it hard to explain. On one hand I can agree with you but on the other I've never played something so immersive and natural that that issue just melts away. The more I play it the more enjoyable it becomes as I discover all the nooks and crannies it has even down to the melee combat which has lots of options that are never explained. For example while choking someone you can move them around and push them up against objects to hold them against while hitting/choking them out. L3 can also be used to slam them to the ground.

The best part about it is choosing 9S and killing A2 by hacking her.

I think I know what you mean though about the discovery aspect, I felt that way about Snake holding his back in pain after rolling too muchin MGS4.

Regardless, those little loving details don't make it good. You haven't made any points beyond "I just like it okay." The melee combat isn't good by any means. And games with ludonarrative dissonance are the antithesis of immersion. Bloodborne is immersive, Shadow of the Colossus is immersive. RDR2 pulls you out of immersion at every corner, most notably with it's mission design.

It's fine if you like it, I have guilty pleasures too. Just don't act like it's anything better than super high budget mediocrity.

That's GTA V you fucking retard.

>RDR2 pulls you out of immersion at every corner, most notably with it's mission design.
I personally think the mission design is fine, if the game was constant open world structure with loosely defined missions I probably would have got bored a lot quicker. Having that variety between the open world exploration, focused main missions and interesting side story missions really worked for me at least. I'm not fond of directionless games where the developer leaves it up for you to find your own solution, unless it's uniquely challenging.

Yeah, I suppose it is a guilty pleasure, but I genuinely don't get arguments like movie game etc. It has plenty of gameplay involvement but yeah whether it's enjoyable will be a subjective experience. The game certainly doesn't play itself.

yeah i sure love walking too fast or two slow and getting a mission failed screen, really keeps me immersed in the game world (??????)

>The game certainly doesn't play itself

A lot of the missions feel like they do. You hold X to ride next to the person who's with you, they just talk until you get to the spot, then a gunfight happens where you press the aim button and it immediately snaps to the closest target. Hell, even Deadeye at the start automatically paints targets for you until later in the game.

And yet it was a moment loaded with more meaning than anything I saw in RDR2. It's the game saying "Here you go, this is for you."

Whereas RDR2 straps you into a fucking cart, sticks you onto the fucking tracks, and gives you a half-hearted kick uphill in the snow. for all the sheer fucking decadence in this game, all it really is is a Marvel blockbuster. The big event of the season that's a big financial success but everybody kind of just moves on after because they're getting sick of this kind of samey bullshit.

RDR2 is RDR1 is GTAV is TLOU is Uncharted. They are all becoming the same game of follow linear path to mission, talk during travel, shoot and/or loot some dudes, achieve objective, either continue on linear path, or perhaps explore a clean, sterile open world.

Breath of the Wild is the first open world game for a long while that actually devotes itself to the World more than the narrative. Zelda got to the point where it had one of the firmest grips on player agency in their games, forcing you onto the linear path for most of the game, and so when they let go, they resolved to really let go, and it shows.

People claim the world is empty in BotW, and that's both stupid and false. The world is full of ingredients, wildlife, plantlife, and yes, Koroks, which salty Sony children like to scoff at. The fact of the matter is that korok seeds are a valuable resource for expanding inventory space, and they are both numerous enough and simple enough that you find them all the time, but most of them don't take all that much to solve.

You're given a constant stream of small rewards, particularly in the early game, simply for exploring and fucking around with what you find, and that's just objectively good game design.

The level of salt still gushing out of sony tear ducts is astonishing. At least PC gamers are smart enough to just play the game on Cemu and enjoy it for themselves.
