Rich Evans explains why Death Stranding and other Snoy games suck ass

I love how you can't form your own opinions about video games, you need a disgusting z-tier e-celeb to form your tastes for you. You're not even a real human being anymore, you're just a receptacle for unfunny manchildren hot takes

I don't listen to bald youtubers

I also write things off completely when they're currently popular or trendy, that's how you know I have sophisticated sensibilities.

No, my opinion was already formed, he simply did a video showing it. Now again, how is he wrong? Take Kojima's dick out of your mouth.

And I don't buy games from Japanese hack game developers.

Rich works because he's the "everyman slob" of their group. Without him to be the butt of the jokes, the jokes either wouldn't happen, or would fall flat without a good target.

absolutely correct on all points.

thread is full of asshurt consolefags who think their cover shooters are actually good

Based.

>wanted cyberpunk 2077 to be thirdperson so that I can see my own custom character
>stuck in first person

it would be awful not being able to see sam's suits as you upgrade them, or the packages on his back.

Shut the fuck up Rich.

Their opinions are so shit they literally cancelled the show.

isn't metal gear third person? Why should it be different?

I don't understand how you guys can post opinion pieces from literal who's on youtube and think that's an acceptable way to present an argument. If there was any justice in this world, you'd all be banned for a month so you can rethink bringing that garbage here.

I was thinking the same since a decade ago.

Cyberpunk 2077 shows your character in cutscenes. You don't need to see them all the time. The game is more immersive for it.

Last I checked, Death Stranding is a new IP, not "Not Metal Gear Metal Gear".

Kojma should have done first person, but he didn't because he is a hack who doesn't care about gameplay or immersion.

Isn't MGS more of a stealth game than a shooter

I mostly agree but I don't want to come off as defending Kojima so pretend I told you to fuck yourself
AIDSMoby gets really virtue signally and it drives me insane and Beardfat is a fucking fag most of the time. I enjoy watching Rich get BTFO partially because he's like me but older, bald and with less of a real personality and I loathe myself.

The fact that these guys are still posted here amazes me. There's really no avoiding it, I've grown up, and Yea Forums simply remains infancy. Look, RLM are the living embodiment of the smug, detached Gen-X ethos. What do I mean by this?

Well, I'd venture to guess none of them has felt a single sincere conviction about anything since childhood. They exist as polyps upon the colon of culture, satiating themselves on the perceived failures of others (i.e. "The Man") while adding nothing new to the discourse aside from ironic complaint.

They're a group of insecure, lost, rapidly aging burnouts who silently believe they could do a better job of making films than the professionals in the industry. Yet they lack the ambition and ability to actually enter the very industry they're obsessed with. They choose instead to fuck around and make student film piss-takes well into middle age.

They are awful, awful people. I've met thousands just like them, and the last thing we need is for these people to gain any attention for their navel gazing.

Please, Yea Forums, do not aspire to become anything like these people. Theirs is a lonely and pathetic road leading to depression and a life devoid of real purpose.

I hope they disappear and their disaffected followers stop subsidizing their lifestyle. Perhaps that would force them to do something productive with themselves.

>inb4 some retard (incorrectly) goes hurrr reddit spacing, as though RLM threads weren't as reddit as they come.

Black Nationalists are right, white women really do look like cave beasts.

I also prefer first person for immersion purposes as well. But I don't really think that video supports what you are saying all. They really are just complaining about lazy gameplay and poor mechanics, but for some reason they are wrongly blaming 3rd person games for this. They don't even say what they feel is lazy that is specific to first person games. For example, the complaint on cover mechanics can be and are also used in first person games, but typically aren't used because it takes you out of the action. So to keep you in action they give you regenerating health, shields, health packs etc. Whereas third person allows you to take cover for strategic purposes, plan your next move or move to a better vantage point, but just give you a regenerating health pool that punishes you for making bad strategic decisions.

Regardless, Death Stranding works best as a 3rd person game because it is story based, character action based, and works best with Kojima's cinematic sensibilities. But obviously Kojima understands how beneficial first person is some situations, and you can see this in the trailer when it shows a first person view when in the battle field.

Fuck off trying to tell people how to think.

I wonder what these 2 lads think about Max Payne 1 and 2.
"You take cover then come out and shoot, it's a game!"
I honestly enjoy some of Rich's commentary but does he honestly think that fps games or any shooter is any different?
What shooters do these guys like?

Maybe they don't want to have to suck and fuck a bunch of old jewish men to "enter the film industry", ever think of that?

Tons of first person shooter games have auto-heal and cover based combat. For guys that played enough video games to have a show about them they sure as fuck don't know what they're talking about.

turd person is trash, first person is superior

Grow up dude

i find it really amusing that in both rlm and pre rec rich never knows what he's talking about. does he know, like, or have a passion for anything? serious question.

The only logical complaint for TPS games is that you can see around the corners.
Modern first person shooters have been just as bad if not worse than third person shooters, dumbass.

>Max Payne
>cover shooter
glad you let us all know you're as dumb as Liam

Jack and Rich are garbage players and their opinions are known to be shit.

Some first person shooters have magic arrows or outlines that let you see every enemy in the entire game. Their criticisms make zero sense.

I think they're just trying to say that a 3rd person cover shooter is a mark of laziness nowadays. Yeah its just overgeneralizing but there is some truth in it.

yes

>grow up and take this dick up your ass goyim, you want to work in the industry right?

cyberpunk and death stranding arent even the same genre of game
what the fuck are you on about

Remember when Jack was completely against anonymity on the internet until Rich pointed out having a permanent identity would instantly out and endanger faggots in third world shitholes so Jack changed his mind?

First person shooters mostly ditched regenerating health ages ago, for what it's worth.

Exactly, Cyberpunk 2077 is an actual good game, Death Stranding is dogshit.

>give Uncharted 4 a genuine try
>get so bored they're playing blind
>worst rated video on their YouTube
Why were people so upset about that?

Life involves catering to the whims of others until you are in the position to have others cater to yours, if you get that far, which requires not being an immature shitter like you're being right now.

Who?

this is some bad shitposting

I don't think death stranding would work as a first person game. A lot of the gameplay seems to be based on environmental interacting features.
Wanting this game to be a first person game would be fucking retarded because this game needs to be third person more than anything.

Explain Cyberpunk 2077 then, it has tons of environment interaction as well as interaction with npcs using first person.

I leaned toward funny until I realized at some point they were booking a room and had to manually click "twin beds"

Rich is the embodiment of the oldfag that praises old PC games. I like him in that regard but much like Jack, he overgeneralizes modern games and takes too much pride in his opinion. The appeal of a RLM member streaming Jedi Knight 2 was enough for me to watch until they started reviewing newer games they were already inclined to hate.

>Not having to take cover in the harder difficulties on all 3 Max Payne's
Glad to know you didn't play the games fucker

god I was that was me (the woman)

That's strange considering it's still held up as the greatest TPS series on this board

Does he have kids? They could all be sharing a room across 2 beds

you say more immersive, i see easier to do.

lazy develloper often go first person.

when was the last time you left your comfort zone?
hotels are like that you have to ask to have a room with a big bed

>thinks being a cynical, nitpicking autist is the same as intelligence
He would feel right at home on Yea Forums.

I feel like AIDSmoby was WAY FUCKING WORSE a few years ago but now he's vastly improved. He's still not my favorite but he's come a long way, he's not aggressively annoying but is now the generic straight man character which complements Rich and Mike well because Jay has become less of a straight man over time. I fucking hate beardfat and wish hipster VCR man would replace him entirely.

This has never been my experience.

Aids has kids though which is why he's only fun when he's too drunk to think "they could watch this someday"

So that means they're right. Good to know.

Examine the gameplay and imagine it being first person. It doesn't work.
Cyberpunk is completely different.

I'm a not a woman, so no, I don't have those kinds of problems. My gf does. She had me put the milk back at the supermarket the other day because there was an employee stocking the milk area and she didn't want to have to interact with them to put a gallon of fucking milk back.

Didn't know hotels are like what? You search "1 room for 2 adults" and a list comes up of either king beds or twin beds. What exactly am I not understanding?

As they stand in a room of 8-bit platformers, lmao. Literally the equivalent in the 80s and hipster games today. Not to say that 8-bit platformers aren't fun, but they're all playing off each other in the same way third person shooters do.

>literally who
yikes

1st person is less immersive you stupid fuck

Being a floating camera with a gun attached to the corner of the screen is not more immersive. Your character does not even move around like a real person; nobody strafes around in real life like you do all the time in nearly every FPS game.
This is why the FPS mod for GTA4 is more immersive than native FPS mode on GTA5: because the camera is just mounted to Niko's face and all his cinematic animations and movements are the same as normal, whereas in GTA5 it changes your whole animation set so you are always facing the direction you are looking. You can't strut around with your pistol out anymore like you can in third person, you have to hold it out forwards like it's Resident Evil 4. And no games but mods use that GTA4 mod type system because you can end up with issues like this webm

Attached: RE2 FPS mod.webm (878x720, 3M)

Agree with Rich

None of these games have ever impressed me because they're all flash and no substance. They're wannabe movies with gameplay as an afterthought but plebs still eat them up because muh storytelling in games look ma games can be art too!

I love RLM for their film opinions, mainly the people who actually know film (Jay, Mike, the Canadians). Rich is fun to have around but he is dumb, he doesn't know about film, and from watching their video games channel he and Jack definitely don't know shit about video games, or at least don't have any meaningful opinions on them.

This is the most intelligent and actually accurate thing I've ever seen posted on this website. As the man who uploaded this video a decade ago youtube.com/watch?v=R1Hm4K5_Pr0 thank you for knowing exactly what the fuck you're talking about. I agree completely, GTA 4 mod is exactly how I wanted first person in GTA 5 and I knew the moment I found out it was going to have native fps mode, it was going to be a watered down piece of shit. What a colossal waste.

>Rich Evans

this is a guy who thinks rey is a good character and mocks people who dont like her for being anti-women when really her characters just has zero motivation or development at all

Good point. I'd like to add that Jay and Mike also shat on people for criticizing Nu Wars until their position became indefensible.

That mod (and that video of it) made me replay GTA4.

So I guess this is the bing bing wahoo equivalent then

Mike, Jay, and Jack are genuinely the only funny people from RLM and even then there is a noticeable gap between Mike+Jay and Jack

is that cosmo

When future generations sift through the smoldering rubble of postmodern America, they would do well to locate a hard drive with RedLetterMedia content on it. They could study Mike and Jay and, with that thin slice of information, fully understand what it is that killed western civilization.

Those two are bitter, cynical nihilists. They have devoted their lives, the prime years of productivity, to pithily lampooning cultural ephemera and implying "we could do better than these idiot filmmakers, but we're too cool to actually try."

They are every strain of societal AIDS melded together into a super AIDS of cultural death...

Well into middle age, they're still obsessively analyzing adventure stories for children. They're childless, unmarried, stubbornly avoiding an actual profession, opting instead to beg for Patreon donations. They are subsisting on the patronage of even more embittered, more lonely, more cynical losers who need virtual friends to swim in their vast Petri dish of misery with them.

Look in their fucking eyes, man. It's a joyless, pointless existence they're living.

They are so afraid of sincerity or honest artistic effort that they'll leave behind hours of footage of them chuckling about Tommy Wiseau. They are artistic cowards and abject failures in every respect.

Each time you catch a glimpse of them, you're reminded that we peaked as a civilization a long time ago. We're done creating. We're done feeling real emotions. All we can do now is analyze, criticize, and ironically pick through the dessicated corpse of our once great nation.

Glad to hear, yeah it really is such a game changer for being immersed in the NY Rockstar created all those years ago. It's still the best complete city simulation that allows you to get down to an on-foot level and interact with as much stuff as possible in a very believable way. Shit like the animation for changing radio stations, totally overlooked by the 99%, suddenly is in your face and you're just like "wow, they really cared when they made this game." What a shame 5 is such shallow shit in comparison. Everything about that game feels like plastic, right down to the FPS mode they made for it.

Congrats, most hipster comment in the thread.

Having level geometry doesn't mean it's a cover shooter. Having a cover mechanic does.

I doubt 30 minutes of watching a video once every two-three weeks is why everything is bad.

It's the New York vs. LA dynamic. I don't think LA works for GTA. That's ironic considering the huge difference between LA and New York regarding cars.

>>This is why the FPS mod for GTA4 is more immersive than native FPS mode on GTA5: because the camera is just mounted to Niko's face and all his cinematic animations and movements are the same as normal, whereas in GTA5 it changes your whole animation set so you are always facing the direction you are looking.

It's really different. The ease and viability of sitting behind cover changes the gameplay.

Mike
>an over-the-hill "director" weighed down by his talentless friends. only makes "ironically bad" videos because they're immune to criticism. his latest production 'Space Cop' has exposed him as a fraud and proved a spiritual and economic disaster. he will eventually go the route of orson welles, balloon up to 500 pounds and die at the ripe age of 50.

Jesse
>the curdling definition of a parasite. ditters on her phone while the men do all the hard work. got caught buying jewelry with actual Patreon money.

Jay
>the only cast member showing any self-improvement or growth. still has a long way to go, but has already outgrown RLM.

I like how Reddit Letter Media is a company founded upon criticism, insulting and berating others and their works, but HEAVEN FORBID that anyone criticize them! They'll even ban you from their stream if they catch a whiff of dissatisfaction. It's amazing how creatively lazy the group has become. They were better when they were a starving group. Now they can sit on their fat asses, drink beer and make fart jokes while you throw money at the screen. Amazing.

The only difference is being able to peak, which multiple FPS games already have mechanics for that and any TPS, just because of how the camera is.

Not him but you're comparing two completely different games here. In Cyberpunk the kinds of interaction are more about talking to other characters and examining small details in dark, narrow rooms besides the shootan and action that has obvious advantages in 1st person.

Death stranding's thing has a lot to do with how physically can you get from point A to point B very much like Botw, so seeing your character in relation to his environment helps to measure obstacles and distances. Plus some of the HUD information seems to be displayed on sam's physical equipment like in dead space. 3rd person view seems more than appropiate for death stranding so far.

Peek

Mike Stoklasa has become the very thing he once ridiculed. Look at the Avatar review: he spends 90 minutes going on about Cameron's blatant pandering to the lowest common denominator, marveling (no pun intended) at Cameron's proficiency for manipulating the audience to make them feel how he wants them to feel, how he wants them to think.

Fast forward a couple of years later. Jurassic World is released -- its heavily established to be a soft reboot operating on the hype of faux-nostalgia and Pratt's recent Guardians of the Galaxy success.

Mike loves it. Hits all the right buttons. Really gets his inner manchild going. He basically reveres the film to Jay Bauman's utter disgust.

This is the first sign of Stoklasa's downfall, his immediate descent into the anti-thesis of Mr. Plinkett. He's become lazy, brainwashed, unwittingly indoctrinated into the modern Hollywood machine sculpted by the likes of Disney executives.

It's October 2015. Disney gets in touch with Red Letter Media. They offer him a deal he simply can't refuse; he's instructed to praise Disney's numbered Star Wars episodes while taking critical albeit nonsensical liberties with the standalone films, all the while consistently spewing a casual commitment to every Marvel film that is released. Mike and his goons are heavily compensated for this, successfully turning the likes of the internet's pseuds into DDs (Disney Dudes).

The real enemy isn't Collider, or Loot Crate boxes.

It's Mike Stoklasa.

I like third-person shooters because I like to see my character and their interaction with the environment. I actually prefer them over first-person shooters even if they're technically easier because I can tell if my ingame hitbox is sticking out around a wall or not which is hard to replicate in first-person shooters because so many devs are faggot retards who want their game to be boxed in at a small fov with no ingame body for the player to see even if it's a multiplayer game where knowing what parts of your body are sticking out behind cover would be important. Third person more often than not at least enforces a good fov.

It's true but replace TPS with open-world RPG-lite towerclimbathon.

I like the systems like in PUBG first person where you can turn your head independently from your body / weapon when you hold ALT, but only turn your head a limited distance based on how much your neck can turn.
If they could have a system sorta like that that also kept third person style animations and only automatically made you turn to face the direction you're looking very circumstantially (like when necessary to not limit the player's camera controls, or to make sure their head doesn't turn 180 degrees on their body), that could work pretty well I think.

Best post.
