Pretty much any JRPG.

I honestly can't bring myself to care about the story of a video game unless it's ridiculous and "cringe".
I'll take the story of DMC over a "serious" story like Last of Us, and anyone who thinks otherwise is a genuine faggot.

there isn't a single game with great writing.

Final Fantasy 10.
The only game I've ever played where the story and characters was suffering.
Then it just kicks you in the nuts for the ending.
What a fucking disgrace that game was.
Gameplay was decent though.

God Hand is anti-cringe. But OP being a lying faggot is nothing new.

Hey OP, here's an actual example of a game with cringe writing

Unbearably great!

It's cringe, but also kino. A daring synthesis that made their story and characters memorable and beloved. Vergil's lines about power and Elvis' friendly banter are cheesy as fuck but they stick with you for a reason. It's all made with heart and soul.

It's cringe if you take it seriously like an unironic autist. Cringe writing is usually grimdark shit or joss whedon tier le humor + dark moments. Not taking yourself seriously and inserting flamboyant black homo's for the fuck of it in your game is completely based.
Christopher Carter
Literally any JRPG.
Charles Scott
You can't have cringe writing if you barely have any writing to begin with.

The game is actually an incredibly well executed cosmic horror with extreme veins of Gothic tragedy. Consistent design and themes easily blend from one style to another. There's hardly anything cheesy about it, it's just two very old literary genres translated into a modern medium. Honestly, it does Lovecraftian way better than anything else in any medium claims to be. It has only the most minimal of outright references (the term Great Ones and the design of the Silverbeasts) and the rest of them are their own spin, but recognizable for what they are.

I know you're just some twitchcunt or reddit idiot, but at least try with some serious bait next time.
Josiah Martinez
a major part of god hands charm in my opinion is the shitty voice acting and writing.

reddit loves God Hand, though.
Asher Baker
God hand's voice acting is excellent. They were meant to sound exactly as they do.
Jace Thompson
Everyone loves God Hand, it's a fucking good game.
Jacob Morris
This.
Daniel Edwards
Bloodborne takes a lot of Lovecraftian ideas and does its own thing with them while still remaining true to its inspirations and not feeling a like mish mash of references, a feat no one else has really managed to pull off. It pulls in everything from pre-human civilizations and ancient things being inherently alien to us (Pthumeru), to invisible dimensions that lie right beside our own (the Nightmare/cosmos) to the fragility of human identity (beasthood/kinhood), the evils of the past welling up in the modern day (the Hunter's Nightmare, the Research Hall, etc.). And it's all perfectly cohesive. While it isn't strictly traditionally Lovecraftian (would never write a story like Bloodborne, with monster fights and stuff), HPL was autistic enough in his love of horror fiction to appreciate things Bloodborne does outside of its grand narrative. The game employs pretty much every other Lovecraftian trope other than total helplessness in the face of horror (because let's face it, that translates to shit gameplay) really well.

Almost everything that chart is canon, btw. Just a few points aren't true at all.
Lucas Nelson
Honestly who cares?
Video games in general have pretty mediocre writting when compared to books and movies. Even the critically acclaimed ones.
Nathaniel Evans
No More Heroes. Couldn't make it past the second boss. Can't believe I spent $60 on that shit and it's where I learned never to trust Yea Forums.
Brody Perry
all of them.
games are not intended to be narrative mediums, except VNs and a handful of good point and click adventures
Caleb Campbell
I love bloodborne, but you're right.
Connor Cooper
Brandon Collins
Lovecraftian means the reversal of the usual heroic tale. Therefore, a properly Lovecraftian game should impart feelings of insignificance, inferiority, inability to grasp and understand, as well as you not being able to simply overcome everything you face. That doesn't lend itself very well to the standard game formula. If you're looking for it in whatever "tentacles and insanity and water" shit you saw an ad for, you'll never find it. There are some properly Lovecraftian games, but they aren't third person shooters with mystery elements and lots of tentacles.
If you want a proper Lovecraftian game, you play something like Rain World. If you want the low IQ interpretation of what Lovecraftian is, play whatever tentacle and madness sim like Bloodborne.
Justin Young
You actually had me until you said this mess is cohesive, honestly now
Austin Jenkins
Yeah sure, and HotD2 was intentionally bad too.
>It uses every trope of Lovecraft other than the most important trope of Lovecraft
k.
Ignoring the fact that Lovecraft is fundamentally Americana literature which the gothic faux-European setting clashes with; tone and atmosphere are more important for a work being considered 'Lovecraftian' than checking off boxes of different plot elements. Nightmare on Elm Street has literally everything you've mentioned as well but I don't think you'd call that Lovecraftian at all.

I can't think of a single cringe during tlou im pretty sure youre just a big huge faggot

It gets better every generation, 3rd person action games have never been better

The difference is that last of us is about the story and DMC the gameplay
Ryan Rogers
That's kinda cheating isn't it?
Easton Long
David Cage is honestly kino. All of his games cross the line into 'so bad, it's good' territory.
Ayden Barnes
lmao what? vesperia's entire stoy goes to complete shit after act 1.
Colton Richardson
>"Maybe somewhere out there even a God Hand when he loses a loved one."
Fucking really, Capcom?
Mason Russell
No, I'm not being edgy, take off the nostalgia goggles and stop remembering when you first played it at age 10
Nicholas Johnson
>No, I'm not being edgy
I don't know bro, you really are giving me the vibe that you are, like you just want to start arguments.. If you put VIII or IX or XIII and XV I wouldn't think you were trolling
Elijah Stewart
Final Fantasy games have always had poor writing.
Camden Turner
You mean fun, down to earth writting. Not soulless shit like naughty dog's
Cameron Morris
You don't actually kill them, as their consciousness takes form or exist in the other planes of reality. And then you have things like Oedon, which is a formless, omnipresent being that exists only in voice, guiding inadvertent worshippers that surreptitiously seek blood, the essence of Oedon.
Nathaniel Anderson
But I thought that was one of the reasons people loved 7 so much
Jackson Walker
Why hasn't Capcom remastered this or remake it? At least a remastered with an aspect ratio that's not 4:3.
Evan Martin
God Hand does not have enough commercial appeal to warrant a remake.
Ryan Gutierrez
What do you guys consider good writing?
Tyler James
Fun to play but good fucking lord the story
Tyler Gray
Who gives a fuck, it's video games not a book, or movie. It's just there to support the gameplay, not be the main attraction.
Logan Rogers
Anything by Nabokov.
Matthew Parker
In vidya? Hard to pick...most of it is honestly cringe
Aiden Campbell
I believe world building and atmosphere are far better for immersion than having a story.
Benjamin Cox
>atmosphere
Chase Walker
DMC5's success might give them a clue.
Also, having played it just the other week, 4:3 still works for it although more is always better.

Not just 7, the whole series. It's like fighting games go out of there way to have extra retarded stories
Levi King
Fighting games don't need story.
Austin Reed
Yeah, they shouldn't have them. But they do, and they are garbage
Gavin Rivera
even neogaf loved it which always surprised me
Ryder Jenkins
In vidya, No More Heroes 1 and Travis Strikes Again.
Ocarina of Time as well.
I would argue characterization and character development as well.
Benjamin Gomez
Literally any game? Kind of a dumb question
