And Anderson really needs to stop that font size bullshittery he has going on. WIZARD DRAGON and ATTACK DRAGON sound much more exciting than the full titles.

It's just amazing that he found someone despite being so in love with hearing himself talk.

He spent an inordinate amount of time figuring out the timing of the sprinklers from case 5 in DR1, and plugged every option in until he brute forced the answer. He then proceeded to sperg out to the chat about how the game was wrong and the logic didn't male any sense, and how you would only figure out the answer by guessing until you got it right.

Mario Odyssey both was padded and lacked challenge.

You are the type of person who would read plato, get bored on the first page, find something irrelevant to complain about, and declare the entire thing invalid. STFU and let the adults talk.

Anyone who has ever said the words "I'm right" while forming an argument, is a twat.

Savage user.

What fucking circle are you talking about? The major points are the game is overpadded and lacks challenge in any way shape or form. He is demonstatably right on those regards, and your just an idiot spewing buzzwords.

Mario Odyssey had a large amount of easy content because the objective was to constantly reward you for just wandering around and exploring the worlds. It's a game about being a tourist, and it completely nails it. There's nothing wrong with a walk in the park sometimes.

Anderson's entire problem with the game stems from the fact that he purposefully played in the most boring way possible, ignoring as many of Mario's movement abilities as he could. He directly states that in his video. His opinion on the game is worthless because he barely played the same game the rest of us played.

Anderson proved with his multihour longform movies that games can't have themes or points user, if he doesn't get exactly what he wanted from preconceived notions of what the game is then the game is bad and you should feel bad for enjoying it.

Imagine a retard walking up to you and speaking gibberish and then insisting they have better speaking skills than you do. That is similar to talking to people on Yea Forums. wanted a real argument/debate. He basically said,

Bro, it's a fucking Mario game, there is no reason to have an argument about it.

Something, something. Those who can't teach etc.

>Darwin had no way to prove his theory
I agree with you but I don't need a $16 book for this one sentence.

I haven't played the game, what is he meant to do? From what I gather he has to prove a contradiction, thus glasses guy asking what I assume is the MC if he has any objections, and the only information we're given is the time at which I assume sprinkles are triggered at, which is hinted to be during the morning. Is that correct?

Is that something that is really happening?

nigga has got to be on meds to write that shit.

Backpedaling.

But then people act the same way about DMC and BOTW
>DMC is about combos and isnt like a souls game where you die all the time. Why isnt this more like sekiro!
>BOTW is about exploration and not about dungeons at all. it sucks.
> Oh, mario odyssey is a tourist game with no challenge and very little platforming that demands you use the mechanics. Its supposed to be that way, and if you dont see it, you just played it wrong.
The problem is that people want different things from games, and if its valid to not like DMC or BOTW for having different aims than you want, the same is true for mario odyssey. Some people thought the game would be more than a walk in the park and would have actual fun platforming. You cant hold that against them.

A bomb exploded the fuck out of a body and the presumed time was 10 at night in a greenhouse, but nobody found it until morning, however if it had occured at that time the body should be wet because the sprinkler system in the greenhouse goes off a 7:30 every morning

>It's not what I want, therefore it is bad
Hi Joseph, how is it going?

the point of the game is calling out contradictions, instead of calling out the contradiction he tries to call out true information, then gets pissed and brute forces it. Then spergs at chat and the game for saying he did it wrong. For more context this is also like 85% of the way through the game as well

You didnt provide any example beyond the first minor irrelevant example. I wanted you to contest his main points about padding and little challenge. You refused because you knew you couldnt.

Yes

They're meant to reward you through exploring and there's so many so that you're not forced to play in ways you want or spend more time than you wish in a place to progress onward. You're along for the ride, being a tourist is an apt comparison.

Still not him, and you still didn't make a "main point". You said "Anderson was right", and gave no examples or proof. Just your opinion.

I'm not the person you were arguing with

>with no challenge
False, Andersons playthrough is evidence there is challenge. At least challenge for a retard.

He did the same thing a grammer nazi does. He pointed out something irrelevant and declared it invalidated everthing. I wanted him to contest the major points of the video and he refused because he knows he is wrong.

When was the body found, then? It could still have been blown up after that time but before sprinkler time.

Honestly a big part of his problem is that he never wants to put any work into enjoying a game, which is ironic considering games are literally his job. He likes Uncharted because it's just one cool scene after another. He likes Skyrim and Fallout 4 because there's constantly a compass telling you where to go.

But if a game just says 'go have fun' and presents him with a bunch of options he doesn't know what to do. Like, he realized fairly early on in Nier that he could just spam items and make the combat really boring, so he just...did that the entire game. And complained about it. Even though he knew it was a boring way to play.

The mind boggles.

Not an argument.

You still haven't given a single example of Anderson being right.

JA can suck a dick, his points on odyssey are right though.

Anderson succesfully argued the game has no challenge and is padded. That is what i stood by. I wanted him to actually argue against those points if he wanted to prove him wrong. He essentially just said its invalid because he couldnt draw a circle.

I honestly don't understand why would you make a career out of something you enjoy only to then put no effort into it.

It doesn't even matter whether Anderson had a valid opinion or not at this point. The faggotry of people jumping in against him just because of his name is straight up sad.
Make an opinion for yourself and take your time to think things through instead of waiting for someone else to tell you how to feel about someone you zombies.
>He's wrong because he's Joseph Anderson!
Ironically is something he would fucking say.

This, how do you come up with this title and not immediately realize there's a better idea right in front of you?

The body was established to be "found" at 11, but the time of death was before that.

However this is a murder mystery so of course there's a lot of misdirection and it gets really convoluted and the entire point of the body is to pin suspicion on you because someone else is conveniently missing. I can't even begin to figure out why he would get irate over that plot point when there are much more glaring plotholes, some that get explained and some that almost seem like magic

I don't care about your pie painting, m9. There's no idiocy here, there was simply no interest in entertaining your wishes.

Why does he have to try?
Just record yourself talking over footage for two or three hours, make a point every hour or so, then watch people treat your word as gospel because you owned the animefags or nintentards.

You probably should have said that instead of expecting people to read your mind, and getting angry and defensive when they did not.

Anderson proved his point about challenge and padding in his video. I stand by the argument. Someone essentially said nu-uh and said its up to me to prove an already sound argument. The burden of proof is on you bro. I am not going to retype his argument for you. The reality is you want to declare you are right without arguing anything, and if you want to continue to be intellectually dishonest then go ahead. If you want to prove that anderson is wrong about challenge and padding, then you will actually have to use your brain and argue why.

That is how it works. Anderson made the argument for me and you refuse to actually critique it. You just said nu uh and said prove it when anderson already proved it for me. Either argue that his proof is bad for legitimate reasons or concede that he is right.

How would it be fixed? I read that and the pacing is slowed to a crawl, but if you were to explain these things later on instead of when they were first introduced it might seem a bit off.

I love how despite the fact that I hate this no chin faggot I still get called a fanboy because I think he was right once.
Never change Hi/v/emind.

It's like a 2 hour long video, and you're getting upset that people aren't refuting the exact points you want refuted, and that they aren't making an extensive argument against it? You are the one trying to argue that it has value. You are the one being intellectually dishonest here. If you want discussion, if you want to defend that the video is in fact good, then make your points, don't demand that people fall under the default assumption that the video has value and that needs to be disproven.

I've never watched the video because it makes its intentions really clear from its subtitle, it's not just "review" or "critique" it's a statement on what the game ISN'T, like it's a fact.
I'm not into being talked down to, and two hours of my time, of which I have a generous amount because I'm a jobless half-wit who really does just watch youtube videos all day, could be spent elsewhere, ANYWHERE else.

Let’s assume that the intention was to make the player a tourist. Why does Odyssey get a pass and a pay on the back for making a theme park style world, when games like Fallout 3, which also have the same type of world design, are endlessly (and rightfully) shit on for that aspect?

Fair. I get where you are coming from exactly. This is a legitimate criticism.

Maybe you're a faggot for giving ECELEB CANCER attention?
How about you play games and have your OWN FUCKING OPINION

If you want to drop a giant info dump on the reader you should either A. Not do that and explain them the properties of the armor as they become relevant or B. Make it interesting and not spend three paragraphs listing off what the armor can and cannot do like you're reading an instruction manual. There's a reason why most good writers avoid info dumps, it's because they almost always fucking suck.

Someone can be retarded and still be right occasionally.

One is an RPG and the other is a fucking platformer.

>like you're reading an instruction manual
If you put that in-universe and had characters discuss it, that could be a really fun way to get your exposition out.

Odyssey isn't pretending to be a story-driven RPG.

>Someone can be retarded
True, someone or some people can be retarded, very true.

Fallout is built on the gameplay principles of things like choices, character planning, interesting encounters, etc. These are thing the theme park design does not provide.

Mario Odyssey is built on the gameplay principles of enjoyable movement and fun platforming. Theme park design meshes well with those goals.

It’s like he’s talking directly at you reading out of a textbook instead of organically showing these details. It’s one of the most basic rules of writing: show, don’t tell.

Using even single adjectives here and there would help immensely

Is this supposed to be conveying the idea that they're experienced veterans? Say "the unadorned starship" and the "dull and worn armor". Boom, now the scene has an ounce of fucking tone and non-exposition based storytelling.

3D Mario has never been about the challenge. Yeah he is correct that the game is lacking in challenge, but you need to provide reasons as to why this is detrimental for a Mario game. 3D Mario games since 64 have had a very low skill floor but a very high skill ceiling due to how many things the player can do as Mario. The great thing about Mario is that despite the lack of difficulty, there's still a sense that you are getting better at it the more you play it. There were so many times playing Odyssey where I knew the game wanted me to use a transformation to get somewhere, but I felt that I could get there using Mario's basic moveset. I was surprised at how many times this worked out for me. In fact people have done "Minimal Capture" runs and there are only around 15 moons where you have to use captures to get to them, the rest can be gotten with Mario's basic moveset. The challenge with 3D Mario games has never really been about through the level design, the challenge comes from mastering Mario's moveset.

Personally I prefer the first silent hill.

My god, what a salty bitch. He really can't handle being told he's wrong about something, can he?

I already loathed the game by this point because every case from 2 on was piss easy and the character writing was getting worse by the second, but even I didn't have a problem gliding through the painless gameplay to see the ending.

thats confusing as fuck can i have like a 2 sentence version

>game wants you to shoot sprinkler time because the dude saying it is wrong the sprinklers come on at 9:30 not 10:00 so he's lying

There's nothing wrong with Discord if you don't enter retarded servers.

the thing that's retarded is if i remember right, the stream immediately following the one where he rage quits begins with him explaining that it was all a joke and he was playing it up

>There's nothing wrong with Discord if you don't enter retarded servers.
Seeing as all servers are owned by Discord they are all retarded.

I'm a retard, switch 9:30 and 7:30.

has the game asked you to point out inconsistencies before that?

That's the entire point of the game.

you suck my cock instead dood

That's literally the single gameplay mechanic that isn't reading text, and this is the fifth trial.

Out of five.

The whole point of the game is to point out inconsistencies

Talking about Danganronpa...the only thing that even remotely frustrated were those stupid puzzles you had to do at the end of each trial to sum it all up

This is basically the same as getting upset that you didn't know you were supposed to attack weak points when you reach the first phase of the final boss.

>>body is wet
>>therefore you are required to shoot 'sprinkers' at 'the murder happened after 10:00 at night'
Wait how is that wrong, wouldn't that just mean the body was left there until after the sprinklers went off?

It's the only thing the game does want you to do. The only other thing you do is gather information.

Cringe.

It's wrong because the guy saying it is saying the murder happened after 10:00 because that's when the sprinklers come on. He's lying because the sprinklers come on at 9:30.

>shits on Matt for not respecting his fanbase and how he is disappointed in him
When did this happen? Also didn't Matt shit on Joe's DaS2 videos at one point? Anyone got a link for that?

What was wrong was the timing of the murder.

So random XDD

>sprinklers come on at 9:30 and the body is wet
>therefore you are required to shoot 'sprinkers' at 'the murder happened after 10:00 at night' because that's a wrong assumption
Why would it be a wrong assumption? The body could be wet because it was left there and wasn't found before the sprinkles were set off.

his new 20~ min vids are pretty fine desu

guy gets surprisingly tolerable when you don't have to deal with hearing his voice for two hours straight.

Both of you are thinking way too far into it. Danganropa isn't a hard game and none of that extra shit matters. the only thing you have to do is point out inconsistencies such as him being wrong about the time.

Sorry, mate, can't find the stream.
You can go on the MM stream channel and see the dislike ratio on his Dustforce stream as the aftermath from that.

He's wrong because he's insinuating that the person had to be killed after 10:00 thus he is ruling out from 9:30 to 10:00 which is incorrect because the sprinklers come on at 9:30 meaning the person could have been killed in that time frame. it really isn't as hard as you're making it.

The corpse is dry, so the murder must have happened after the sprinkers came on. Which means it must have happened in the morning and not any time after 10:00 at night like is claimed.

Can't find it. Looked through all of his streams for a video that was heavily disliked and found nothing. Maybe he deleted it.

How do you miss the purposefully jankie combat in Silent Hill 2 and then think that James is really good at combat? Also, How did this person miss the fact that every enemy James fights is a representation of his psyche? He clearly gets the theme of the game but doesn't see it in the enemy design?

I mean, it's not a bad game, but it's a boring fucking choice for your top 10.

It was early in a RE1 remake stream Matt did where he commented on JA's das2 vid.

The question you ask whenever you're writing is "so?".
He introduces two characters who will betray each other then drops the focus to waffle about armour and weapons as if anyone gives a shit. Theyr'e fluff. The meat should be the two characters interacting with the audience trying to read between the lines of their actions and searching for double meanings in speech to work out who the backstabber is.
This requires empathy which autists lack so their only interaction is an exposition wall followed by exposition on armour and a robot to talk to.

How the fuck do you get so many of these "uh, maybe it was this one or sequel cant decide lol" in your fucking top games list? Makes it seem like he hasnt even played them.

I think I'm fucking imagining things then. Sorry for the mislead, but the part about JA saying that is true.

There's not a single original thought here, and I know he didn't play some of these at all (what kind of fucking moron would even put X3 in the same league as X and X2, its awful).

it's like he just took the top 10s from reddit and Yea Forums and combined them, also goldeneye sucks and I can tell he hasn't replayed it or half of these games with his "critical eye" because they wouldn't stand up.

Thank you.
I figured that, given that the only piece you're given to work with was the sprinklers themselves and the time they go off at it would be a matter of whether the body would be wet or not, since that's the one way in which they would be relevant evidence, yet at the same time I think I kind of went full retard and got caught up over Anderson spamming that the murder could have happened at 10:30pm which didn't directly contradict the time the sprinklers went off at, since the murder could have taken place then and the body just left there to moisten until it was discovered.

It's all a big idiot ball since I didn't have the full picture, my bad.

HE DIDNT EVEN FUCKING UNDERSTAND SOMA

>Baldur's Gate or Planescape
Those two are not even remotely the same as long you've spend enough time in either of them. All you need to know about him, really

Yes, that makes sense. When you're writing you have a limited amount of space to show things without dragging the pacing down so it's important to keep stuff relevant.

Like the other user mentioned, too, if such exposition was necessary (which it wasn't, at least looking at that, seemed like flavour text) it could have been broken down into smaller chunks to be dispensed when they're actually relevant to what's happening to keep the action going. Yeah, I have a better grasp on it now.

You know how you know this list is bullshit?
Nobody who's played a lot of video games honestly makes a list like this without outliers.

X3 is actually pretty legit if you spend enough time to learn it, imo.

when you give me a better monologue than Mary reading the full letter I might consider it.

If by "enough time" you mean five minutes, yeah. Not to mention SOMA is apparently only on the list for the story, but Planescape, whose only good quality is the writing, is half the list up from it because...?

In the same way X6 is, sure. It's still designed pretty terribly and is a massive step down from X1 and X2. That's not a taste thing, the game was literally shipped off to a different developer and rushed out in a few months to fill a schedule gap.

Oh thank god someone else who realizes it's a bad game with some good but not amazing writing.

Most people who play video games really just want to watch a movie where they have to click a button once every 5 minutes.

It's not even a very good movie.
Most gamers have no imagination or standards.

It certainly isn't going to be the gameplay. It's fairly serviceable but it's nothing groundbreaking.

Being good has never been important though. As long as it *looks* good people will lose their shit over it.

It hurts my soul when people say Spider-Man PS4 was amazing, or that it had great writing. Then again, people saying that about Homecoming had the same effect.

He thought it was a dream sequence for half the game.
Didn't know there were multiple unique interactions/scenes for each character/choice the player has to make.

In all fairness, while Homecoming is nothing special it is a pretty enjoyable Spiderman flick. Leagues ahead of crap like the Amazing Spiderman.

If Anderson could write books surely it can't be that impossible a goal.

Write a book.
Publish it.
It's literally that easy.

I don't want to just half ass things, tho. I'd like to learn to do it the proper way.

Literally anyone can self-publish. Getting picked up by a big company is the real goal. just write a lot work on it and send out manuscripts. Also learn how to not be a spastic fuck in person.

Unironically go on Yea Forums occasionally for their critique threads and post some of your work. They WILL tear into your ass but their unfiltered criticisms will help you get out of bad habits with your prose.

Have people in your social group read some of your work to and keep reading other books. You may pick up certain conventions or techniques you like. Also try not to fall into the trap of genre fiction. Do something new and exciting free from the constraints of the norms of a genre. Be better than Anderson who has the most generic sci-fi and fantasy settings in his books.
