I know you're trying to bait, but I think good non-linear level design is uncommon in both Japanese and Western games.

If you actually put in the first areas of MGS and not a strawman it would actually be more complex than the thief one.

Feel free to pretend it wouldnt.

Metal Gear Solid 1 on PS1 sold literally 10x the amount that Thief: The Dark Project did.

The Metal Gear franchise is still in demand despite the controversy surrounding the last few games in the series.

No one remembers or cares about the Thief franchise.

Man, I remember when that was Marathon and Doom 3, everything old is new again

Isn't the map on the left a map from Doom?

How did half life start the cinematic gaming trend and not The Last of Us?

non-linear maps are frustrating. they mostly just boil down to a series of linear paths where you have to backtrack after each one to start the next one. what's so great about not knowing if a path will lead to a locked door or the key to that door? you'll have to go down both anyway.

Prime isn't even a semi-similar game though.
Every 3D game uses one of two camera perspectives, 1st person and 3rd person, so you can rephrase the commonality of Thief and Metroid by saying "They're both not third-person", which says practically nothing about either game.

Influence Means nothing unless your a Developer, actual gamers don't give a fuck about Doom & this has always been the case

The real reason those games are always represented is because they’re popular console games, which is what most of those people probably played when they were a kid and were less jaded.

"USA under Indians" literally wasn't the USA you fucking dolt.

It's one thing to not know world history, but to be this ignorant of your own little pop culture Internet sphere is fucking sad as shit.

Yes, literally everyone on this board uses Critic Scores, influence, Sales or GOTY awards to validate their arguments

As someone who browses GameFAQs and YouTube's Alt-Right clickbait channels looking for Anti-SJW/Alt-Right audiences to debate with, I know about them all too well. These people have always been in our society but seek solace in gaming. Gaming is a fantasy lands that, in their eyes, should be a reflection of everything they've always wanted but can't get out of life. It was made with white men in mind, and now that it's starting to change to better reflect its audience, they feel like they're being attacked. Western gaming is taking steps to diversify their protagonists, diversify their developers, and create female characters that aren't grossly sexualized, and they hate it. So they move on to Eastern gaming while condemning Western gaming for its themes of progress.

What's interesting that I noticed about GameFAQs topics and stuff on Yea Forums, and how they align with the Alt-Right, is that you see this pro-Japan agenda theme frequently. It first takes the form of "Japan makes better games" or "JRPGs are superior." But then, it starts evolving into the fetishization of Eastern women, which is a common theme with the Alt-Right, due to fantasizing the submissive stereotypes of Japanese women. They then start talking about how Japanese gamers hate progressives in America due to censorship, and how their culture is really traditional is what makes it superior. Slowly, but surely, it evolves into a "this is why homogenous societies are better" argument, because the themes fill every checkbox in what interests them. Women, traditionalism, homogeny, white, etc..

I'm not sure what can be done about these people, honestly. To me, they're in the same category as the Alt-Right It's really hard to get into an honest conversation with some of them. Some of them have no intention of ever changing their views, even if they acknowledge they're in the wrong.

A better Native American parallel would be Something Awful, whose success and cultural space Yea Forums pretty successfully conquered with flying colors.

No. I don't care about fighting games. But doing it would show how shallow the gameplay is without complex input controls.

Too bad the design is always going to be limited by the same story and gameplay

You need to add a circle to the modern FPS.

NOW I get it. Thanks user!

6 years ago. How would the 2019 FPS map design look? The same?

Now post the metacritic scores

>I don't understand this genre that I don't care about
Figured as much.
But you're right, we should bind circle strafing and rocket jumping to button presses as well. Oh wait, you already do that unironically because you walking sim players are that casual.

You just said that Tubmlr, 9g'ag, reddit and many others are better than Yea Forums.
because they are bigger than Yea Forums.

The box needs to be bigger but everything inside needs to stay the same.

It's a fighting game with 2 inputs. Jump and Kick.

Let me guess, the camera is fucked up so you can't make accurate jumps, right?

Thief is obviously a better structured game but there's nothing wrong with a game trying to be a more linear experience with an engaging story. It's just a shame that it's considered a stealth game instead of a movie game just because the only gameplay it has is stealth.

>Listing Borderlands 2

I know it's hard for your military sim-addled mind to comprehend, but those "cucked" consoles actually have action games with different and varying gameplay styles from the usual Gears of Duty archetype. Who knew!

Which they steal from another and are ultimately limited by the lack of designated aiming device. Also funny how you completely ignore RTSs which your paltform can't do at all. And even the turn based ones are better on PC because the mouse is just faster.

>Boss fights
Shitty concept that should've been abandoned long ago but eastern devs still cling to it because they can't adapt for shit

What's wrong with having a buffed up enemy that tests mechanics you have learned during the gameplay?

Even in that case boss fights are usually (Not all the time, but a majority) key points in the protagonist's journey.

DELET

It's such a tired cliché. "Kill this big dude and everything is going to be alright, all the enemies will stop fighting." Why does it have to be a single monster? Why do you have to be locked in the fight? I am by no means against the end of the game being hard and requiring pretty much your whole arsenal but the whole single most powerful enemy ending the game just irks me. STALKER did it well. The CNPP sequence is pretty hardcore (or not if you have prepared for it) but the "big boss" is disposed of in a cutscene because it's not some giant monster.

the latest slav games have all suffered from controllitis. Elex for example

(You)

you better delete this fucking image this second or else

>Elex for example
I haven't mentioned Gothic even though it could be argued that it's slav by appropriation. Anyway, Elex was made by krauts.

It just works in the context of the game. If it is a high fantasy game or a sci-fi opera, what's wrong with fighting against the big monster or a 1v1 fight against an enemy of a similar skillset to you?

At this point you are arguing if boss fights should be in ALL games which I completely agree with you that they should not be in every game. I'm arguing boss fights in general are not a bad thing and are a great way to serve to test the player on the game's mechanics expected at that point.

One was clearly satire, user.

>all bosses are the same
In some games bosses are more interesting then everything else said game offers

That’s not the map design though. That’s the in-game map drawn by Garrett. It is done to show that the mansion’s interior is mysterious and unknown, as well as not to give away the crazy and complex architecture inside.

>what's wrong with fighting against the big monster or a 1v1 fight against an enemy of a similar skillset to you?
As I said, it's been done way too many times. There could be a myriad other win conditions for the end of the game but in the end, it always boils down to "kill da big dudeL because it's simple to do and do somewhat right.

That's exactly the problem.

Your mom was clearly satire.

There is literally nothing wrong with this , if anything your discussing rival battles more so then most bosses

>Which they steal from another
You described western PC action games and it's copy-pasted FPS template. Are you confused or just brain damaged? How are Super Mario Odyssey, Devil May Cry 5, REmake 2 and Monster Hunter Generations anywhere near as similar as what comprises the left column?
>RTSs
Not action.
>turn based
See above. Your spreadsheet machines literally have to slow everything to an on-command crawl to do anything more intensive and demanding than your dead arena shooters.

Probably because there hasn't been a good RTS in years as it's a dead genre WRPGkun.

Outside of oldfags like me, no one even remember Thief anymore beyond the reboot meme

Retarded redditor

I'm not taking sides on this bullshit, but that wasn't his argument

They dont get games anymore so they have to find way to supplement their sad existence

>dead genre
Except you know MODS. And if we expand, basebuilders, 4X games, GSG etc. Which Japan can't do either.

>the differences in weapons and settings
I didn't. One has a bunch of crosshair-pointing pew pew guns, the other has melee and ranged weapons of all shapes, sizes and attack patterns. You're free to stop supporting my argument any time you want.
>QTEs = something that does not have a contextual prompt for starters
This is one of those times when the statement "you haven't played x genre or done any research regarding it at all" is no longer exaggeration but a statement of literal fact.

Ask me how I know you didn't play Prey 2017.

>One has a bunch of crosshair-pointing pew pew guns
Because they are guns

Because the author has no idea how guns work and creates it for people who don't know either. I gues if you are the kind of person to go ZOMG triplebladed katana so kewl, you'd find it better

Japanese games have guns, though.

It's almost if the Japanese have, *gasp*, imagination and don't beholden themselves to the West's obsession with "realistic" everyday /k/ autist limitations.

You mean absolutely retarded need of escapism unbound by any rules OR explanations? Faciliated through the same tropes no less. I have a suspicion that the audience of weebshit must be braindead to consume this constant stream of overblown cartoony graphics without something in their mind going "wait a minute, how the fuck does it work"

>Metal Gear Solid 1 on PS1 sold literally 10x

it sold like shit compared to call of duty so by that argument its still shit lmfao, retard wapanese

mgs 3 sold less than splinter cell and was a vastly shittier stealth game liked by only the most numale of numales

Not him but what's with europoors seemingly seething hatred of anything over the top? Its like everything needs to be more grounded and it sounds like the cringy "games are art " crowd

Tenchu was a better stealth game than Thief ever was. You're smoking SUPER HARD crack if you want to even begin to put it against MGS, the undisputed king.

>caring about meta scores inflated by obese american 'game journos' going berserk over anything made by bug like japs

Japanese games and consoles have traditionally been more successful in North America, along with arcades. They've occupied a middle ground in design ethic between the core mechanic and action-oriented Japan and the cinematically inclined resource-focused computer gaming Europe, and it shows in games like pic related.

I expect a setting of videogames to make sense. Not always but usually.

he's right, theif is shit. Turns out mounting a fuck ton of mechanics on top of each other doesn't make for a good game when the baseline attributes like AI are shit. Meanwhile the AI in MGS was revolutionary at the time

I was replying to , dunno how that happened.

If by "this shit" you mean weebshit then you'd be absolutely correct.

I think that we can all agree that Thief really was something else, and that it deserved a better fate than the one it got. It's a fucking shame that it's not as famous and that it didn't sell as well as MGS.
