Was the network test fun? Also how is Kotaku not dead by now

Pastebin it

I really do wonder if Kotaku has ever been good. Since I first discovered it, it was fucking trash. This was like 2008-2009 I wanna say? Lots of trash mixed in with a lot of articles actually talking about video games. No muh privilege bullshit but just a lot of fucking trash.

It used to have “ha ha I live in Japan and you don’t look at this Pokémon merch” articles for a while.

Ziff Davis bought them out. Ziff Davis also owns IGN btw.

>(Literally taking a moment to say that “trashy” does not mean “bad.”)

That sounds cute

'trashy' doesn't mean 'bad'

Kotaku? More like NOtaku!

western gaming journalist has been trash since for fucking ever. They hate games, they hate gamers, they hate their jobs. It's really no wonder GG happened.

The only gaming news I trust these days are gematsu and youtubers.

Liberals hate Japan because they're not Americanized enough and haven't fallen in line, they claim to hate colonization but want every country to think like them.

It implies it at the very least though.

Gamepro in the 90s would like a word with you

They've engrained themselves in to the twitter progressive cliques. People who don’t actually play video games. Kindof like Yea Forums.

SJWs hate nothing more than themselves. Kindof like Yea Forums.

Why is Yea Forums defending code vein? We all know that game is trash like that other series GE, just because a casual site called it trash doesn't make it suddenly good. We should be happy casuals can see through garbage like this trying to cash in souls hype this late

The article says it was fun though.

What's going on, I though the Hulkster killed Kotaku.

Sup newfag?

They are right, Code Vein IS trashy anime action.
Its a symbiosis of bad harem anime titties and shounen level of design/writing. Fucking tokyo ghoul masks is a cherry on top of it.
If you say otherwise you just have bad taste. I was surprised Code Vein is being discussed at all, it looked very bad.

Where cutting your dick off isn't considered a mental illness.

Where those who build society are replaced and hated by those who destroy it, and that's a good thing
Where trash isn't bad, where bad isn't bad and where good isn't good, but that's not bad.

Rather be a newfag than someone that enjoys garbage games, Yea Forums won't even play this longer than a month when it dies

Nutaku is not old Kotaku, They started off a blog that covered the Japanese imported game scene.

>bad harem anime titties
Now you've picked my interest.
will follow the development of the game.

It was solid around 2004-2005, it along with Gamasutra were about the only sites around that had industry and development related articles rather than the usua IGN/Gamespot preview/review cycle.

Even Rock Paper Shotgun was good a decade ago.

Now everything is fucking cancer.

It was fun except for how it was too anime.
I don't understand why people give a shit about sites like Kotaku that are literally blogs with some news, instead of Gematsu or other sites like that that don't inject opinions into the announcements.

It's not about the fact that it's a shit game or not. Kotaku didn't even go as far to review whether it is a good or bad game, all they state is that it's "anime trash". Hence we can deduce that to them all games with anime is trash. I hope it makes sense to you now that someone spelled it out for you like a child.

user, its really bad

It doesn't matter what they said, it's a shit game. It deserves to be treated like this.

majority of them moved over to polygon. The pozz spreads as fast as its old host dies.

No one talks about god eater 3 because it came out like 3 months ago and the people who cared about it don’t have a whole lot else to say

Most games don’t actually get discussed for very long unless they’re eternal shitposting fuel like rosterfagging or new vegas

OCARINA IS A REAL INSTRUMENT

I used to actually follow it up until they did a redesign on their front page and suddenly it went from 80% video games to 20% video games overnight. the only big problem i had with the site back then was that they would always be reporting on really old shit like it was brand new.

Fucking this. The best way to deal with media's garbage is to ignore it. They exist for attention and OP and his ilk gives them that. Shit, linking Kotaku doesn't even result in a ban anymore.

Except I did read it and they specifically state all the pros about the gameplay in a few sentences then completely overshadow it with "but it's super edgy anime trash". This is not a review of the game it's a clickbait clearly calling out "anime" because this Heather bitch doesn't like it.

This. Getting people pissed off is basically their marketing strategy.

I wouldn't expect Yea Forums to be self-aware enough to know just how degenerate anime is. You fuckers have daily "Xenoblade" threads after all. I put Xenoblade in quotes because it's always ecchi threads.

I thought that we all agreed that kotaku is irredeemably shit and it should never be taken seriously.

Why do you fags keep coming here if you don't like anime? It blows my mind

apparently nu-Yea Forums didn't get the memo

Dude almost looks like fucking cosmo

The gameplay I thought was pretty fine, but it feels weightless if you don't understand the way break/balance works, because it's not a flat stat like in dark souls, it's a meter for enemies that deteriorates rapidly based on damage, so if you have something mid-damage but high attack speed (like a bayonet or broadsword) you can slap an enemy twice or three times and get a stagger off. You can change the value of your damage to their balance by using a buff to break, but focus also plays into it.
It's pretty needlessly complex, but it's not really all that weightless, the weight is just more damaging to you than the enemy (though if you learn to dodge instead of blocking like a zweihander brainlet you can be in focus 95% of the time and have nearly infinite balance, and nearly infinite break, plus super increased damage).

Ultimately my biggest issue with the network test was the actual network play. It was horrible. The netcode was an absolute disaster, I can count on one hand, the amount of experiences I had out of 40+ summons where I wasn't rubberbanding and lagging around. There's 0 way I'd ever buy this game if they don't fix that first and foremost.

>trashy anime action
kotaku's just as retarded as ever though. Far from trashy.

I hope they leave it. Hate to see that get patched.

they're not really wrong. anyone going into this game expecting dark souls but weeb style will be disappointed. it's got all the usual anime tropes within it, distracting from what otherwise is a decently solid action game. it's an anime game first, just with dark souls wannabe combat.

The only people that will like it, are true weebs, because they play these types of games with the same type of tropes within all the time. With that, it's probably one of the better "anime" games to come out this gen, if the bosses can stay interesting and combat not repetitive by the 20 hour mark. co-op is a plus for extra weeb shenanigans.

user, enjoying porn/sex ist's the logical and mature way to satisfy your sexual needs.
Fanservice it's a pointless marketing tool that insults your intelligence, wastes your time, and the resources of the product creation that contains it.
Criticising fanservice garbage has nothing to do with disliking women/ boobs, and has everything to do with having basic criteria and standards of the vidya/ shows you spend you limited lifetime.

Kotaku isnt wrong though. Its so hard to go playing Code Vein after Sekiro. Even Nioh 2 looked a thousand miles better. Everything in Code Vein feels so weightless and janky. I cant believe this took 2 years to make.

So is she the Fire Keeper of this game?
also pls tell me its coming to PC

It is

Shitposting on an anime imageboard isn't the logical and mature way to satisfy your social needs.

Regardless of Kotaku, it was not good. It's B-tier Souls knockoff with a better character creator. After playing through 7-8 superior games of its type, its just not interesting.

People didn't used to call it Slowtaku for nothing.

>41%

I just fucking hate that weapons barely have any difference in weapon length. My short sword has the same hitbox range as a greatsword. What the fuck this is Conan Exiles tier bad. The devs do not know how to make an action game at all.

>Criticising fanservice garbage has nothing to do with disliking women/ boobs
Normal human's attitude toward fanservice is "good for them to have it in their games."
Going out of your way to criticize it is already a pretty weird thing to do.

You might as well be saying "if you want violence stop playing those video games and go watch/take up boxing."
Men the world over enjoy titillation of both sex and violence in their media and workplaces despite the fact they get plenty of sex or watch plenty of porn, because it's simply pleasant to look at. Pilots paint sexy women on their aircraft. Bosses put leotard calenders up in the workplace. Mainstream movies and music videos have tits and ass in spades. Video games are no different.

A game can be good or garbage completely independent of its fanservice and fanservice is simply a plus on the end result, so stop pretending all games with fanservice are always bad games trying to hide it. Now fuck off and go be a faggot somewhere else.

For a Kotaku employee you don't seem very progressive.

Playing the network test, it honestly isn't anime action other than the dash and some of the abilities. Core gameplay doesn't give off an anime action vibe and the anime is only its presentation and delivery of narrative

You value it enough that you care to let him know how you feel about him. Obviously you care about what he thinks.

most people that lurk this shithole dont even agree with your loli shit though, you pedos are just so vocal.

The truth is that Kotaku is filled with insecure man children who are obsessed with "growing up" and seek the validation of others. Anything that might reflect poorly on them is bad and must go. Japan is an easy target because despite pretending to be hard hitting they're complete desperate on ad money so they wont alienate high profile devs who grant them both views (by virtue of size) and access to devs. This is also why the majority of hate these guys spill is towards indies while they bootlick corporate bullshit.

Are you brain damaged?

>Publishers began falsely attributing work to Shakespeare because his name sold, as can be seen in The Passionate Pilgrim in 1599.

>This popularity went right to the top. In 1605 The Merchant of Venice was performed before the King who enjoyed it so much he commanded a repeat performance. And Shakespeare’s popularity lasted over twenty years, an extraordinary record.
>Ben Jonson’s 80-line tribute in the First Folio illustrates how highly Shakespeare was regarded. Pringle describes this as “one of the finest occasional poems in the language”, and it’s full of memorable phrases such as “Soul of the age”, “Shine forth, thou star of poets”, “He was not of an age, but for all time!”, “Sweet Swan of Avon”. But more than just praising, Jonson confirms that Shakespeare was a good actor, that he was a likeable man, that he was a better writer than his contemporaries, and admired by both Queen Elizabeth and King James.
