Yea Forums or /vg/ ?

/vr/

/vr/

both are gay and sucks

/vg/ is nothing but attention whores/screenshot wanking/waifu wars.

hiro should just delete /vr/, /vg/, and /vp/ to reunite Yea Forums once and for all.

/vg/ has a very specific selection of good threads, the rest is absolute garbage. Yea Forums requires a discerning eye to bring out the 3 or 4 good threads in it at any given time.
All in all /vg/ is easier to get into because the contents don't really change, but at the same time doesn't have a very wide range. Yea Forums meanwhile is extremely fluctuating and harder to pinpoint the good stuff between the shit due to its volatile nature.
I haven't gone to /vg/'s catalog in a long time because I already have all the necessary generals open and know the rest is garbage.

That's the point.

Yea Forums, despite what people think, does have decent vidya threads and every now and again a decent meme or two before its run into the ground.
You do have to wade through some shit but it is infinitely better the /vg/. I'll take a swamp over a septic tank any day.
People who disagree have either not have their game banished their to die in an unending circle jerk pit or waifu obsessed grave or are part of the problem.

>kawata shoujo general #8937: i love fucking crippled people edition!

no thanks I'll stick with Yea Forums unless I'm going to emugen or something for specific discussion

/vg/ actually discusses video games, even if 90% of it is phone shit. Yea Forums used to be diet Yea Forums but now it's just fucking awful, every other thread is some /pol/ or Twitter screenshot bullshit with an OP that tries to pretend the thread exists to talk about video games but really exists to discuss whatever off-topic bullshit the picture is about.

They're the same thing but Yea Forums has less concentrated autism. That's not to say that it's completely lacking as /vg/ is just a containment board that fails to do its job for Yea Forums posters to sperg over certain games, mostly MMOs and mobile games.

/vg/ is the same way though. There are some decent and on-topic generals there, namely for less popular games and games that are newer and haven't yet run out of actual discussion.

Just like Yea Forums, you can't judge it based on its shittiest threads. Maybe even more so, since generals are basically their own self contained communities that don't interact with each other. They may as well be separate boards.

Yea Forums, /vg/ is full of irrelevant game generals no one but gachafags care about. /vr/ when possible, though.

I really only go to /civ4xg/ every so often but it's almost entirely dominated by stellaris discussion which gets old after one thread.

To this day I don't understand the point of /vg/. Why would you discuss the same fucking game day in day out, for several years on end? Where's that little thing in your brain that demands you seek out something new?

And this is precisely why I don't go there. I would just be flinging shit at those zoomers all day long. I'd rather fling shit at the FF14 trannies here.

Take Stalker for example, there‘s constantly new mods out so keepingthe discussion to onegiant thread makes sense. The same goes for Paradox titles or MMORPGs, constant new content keeps the interest up.

/feg/ is bad literally only because of the spic

/vg/ always devolves into circle-jerking, attention whores and no discussion of video games. Just compare the TF2 threads on there to here.

Factually true, without them many /vg/ threads would be better, but in general attention seeking individuals are always attracted to small "communities" where their voice can be heard easily.

But not like Yea Forums ain't got it's share of shit.

They're both fucking terrible. Yea Forums is full of legitimate underaged children, and any topic unfortunate enough to be banned to /vg/ will inevitably turn into a cult of personality.

That reminds me, aren't we all glad that the fucking tripfags are gone from Yea Forums? That alone warrants /vg/ existing as a contamination board.

The fact threads getting banished to /vg/ is viewed as a negative thing means Yea Forums is better for that reason alone. People ignore that actual discussion does take place on Yea Forums even with the amount of shitposting there is.

i like browsing /indie/ to get some niche game recommendations

Threads aren't magically created since you filter the undesirable ones, user.
If I filter every shitty thread on a board I'll be left with a threadless board.

going to /vg/ is bad for smaller games because /vg/ has like a fifth the posterbase that Yea Forums does and people who go there don't browse the catalog for new things to talk about so eventually they'll stagnate and die

There was a reason we exiled generals to their own board

It would be pretty funny to see a /vg/ thread get banished to Yea Forums. Like a lamb in a lion's den.

Yea Forums gets a good thread once in a blue moon but even that has a couple people wanting to derail it.

Yea Forums ruined /vg/.

You cant really compare /vg/ to a single board since the /vg/ has Generals focused to a specific game while Yea Forums is just a mash of everything.

Every single general thread, on any board, almost always devolves into a pseudo-chatroom between people, with a copious amount of avatar/tripfaggotry, with a heavy sprinkling of trannyism.

when you see people talk like this without any apostrophes or punctuation you know its a faggot general

/vg/ is just a fucking mystery to me. The TF2 general is incomprehensible and they still have a cripple dating simulator general. God knows what there's left to talk about.

It depends on what you want. I would have said Yea Forums a few years before but Yea Forums nowadays is complete garbage and there are days I don't find a single good thread.
On the other hand I only really use /vg/ for one of the generals and it's been getting worse and worse as more Yea Forumsedditors have been infesting it.
So I don't know.

While you're at it tell if if /ksg/ has anything to do with the game and isn't a hugbox general, or if any of the gachashit generals aren't just circlejerks over waifus, you literally can't

There isn't anything left to talk about, that's exactly the problem.
The insular nature of /vg/ threads means they develop their own little communities. Nobody wants their little community to die, but they require constant posting in order to survive. The result is when they run out of things to talk about, they start shitposting and posting off-topic garbage to keep the community alive.
The two generals you listed are perfect examples of this.

How do you lose count when you can archive? I also refuse to believe that every single person forgot what number they were on.

Honestly /vg/ and Yea Forums ought to be brought back together, because not only would it bring life back into those zombie generals by the influx of new posters, but it would kill off the ones that are so dead they wouldnt be able to handle getting bumped to page 10, and it would mean that Yea Forums would be majority video game discussion that isnt just FOTM shitposting like Smash threads for the first time in a long while

If you hate /vg/ as a whole you're most likely an autist who is scared of the concept of discussing things in general and feel more at peace in Yea Forums which is run by short, meaningless shitposts. The whole "/vg/ is just avatarfags/furries/trannies/weebs" seems like a justification for that specific poster's autism, and they probably don't discuss videogames anywhere outside of Yea Forums simply because they never wanted to discuss videogames to begin with.

Im still fucking mad that Ace Attorney Online got kicked to /vg/ and died the slow death that every niche game sent there gets

Attached: crime and punishment.png (251x170, 11K)

/vg/ is just trash, fuck off. Nobody but literal Redditors would want to browse a board full of avatarfags, tripfags and drama.

And then one general would take over the board entirely, people would make threads too soon for it, and it would all be more trouble than it's worth. Make no mistake, video game generals are a cancer and /vg/ is the containment zone. They do not actually bring game discussion up at all; they create cliques, drama, and personalities in a place where none of those things should ever exist.

/vg/ is shit unless you only want to talk about one specific game and understand the autistic guidelines that are the unspoken rules of the general.
It's nearly impossible to get info on a game in those circlejerks and katawa shojo #999999 where they're still talking about a mediocre 10 year old VN, because deformed girls are the only people they could ever possibly trick into loving them.
Yea Forums is 90% faggots but that normal for anywhere on the internet now I guess.

Seriously? Like a thread will get deleted if you post it on Yea Forums?

the worst thing they used to ave was maybe a couple of edgelord OC's but now its a shitshow

/gbfg/ has gone past 5k threads now

The general was fucking great, possibly the greatest general in the past couple of years with a shit ton of user created content, streamables, tons of fun anons, and drawfags drawing a metric fuck ton of requests for us.
Then around June the dumbass 17 year old pollack dev stopped working on the game and starting milking the fuck out of his patreon and most of the players left. The general kept bleeding players until the only ones that were left were the autistic losers who sat all day in the thread to bump it, the autistic griefer everyone hated, and the dumbass underaged faggots we bullied off the server who crawled back since everyone else left. The only ones that stayed behind to spam Yea Forums since then are a bunch of chat room trannies/namefags who sit in there all day blogposting or complaining about mods, or their boogeyman. Serves them right for killing their general.
The original server host Nocorras quit around Decemeber 2018 and called them faggots when they made their gay steamcord

It's funny because modern Yea Forums is basically a vidya themed Yea Forums.
It ironically happened after dicks and porn took over actual Yea Forums -making it a place so awful, people are genuinely missing the "Free iPad" days. Current Yea Forums is also what happens when you ban all genuine vidya discussion on a shitty board in the dark corner of the platform.
...which attracts the special kind of freaks we all know today (namefags, trannies, the discord crowd, tumblr homosexuals, avatarfags, degenerate weebs etc).
Sure, some of them are so autistic about their games they can genuinely help you out with everything you need, but you could probably say the same about Reddit for that matter.
The board itself is mostly used for containment-thread tourism. You don't actually lurk /vg/; when you do, it's a terrible experience and you're lost in a totally foreign environment.

I never thought I'd say this, but the 8ch vidya boards are legitimately better than what we currently have, they often feel like old school Yea Forums (except the political GG circlejerk boards, which are exactly what you'd expect).
I swear I'm only hanging around in this cesspool because at this point I mostly shitpost from mobile (I have way better shit to do from a desktop, like playing actual vidya) and there are no decent cripplechan clients for the OS I'm currently using

Yea Forums has been "Yea Forums with video games" for a long-ass time, user.

Remember /mgg/?

WRONG.

Microsoft unironically emailed Hiro, telling him they weren't liking what they were seeing (their most successful console shooter being ported on PC, with anons providing links non-stop).
Post-release Halo Online thread lasted 3 (THREE) days on Yea Forums. Then they started 404ing all of the sudden. Halo Online discussion was forbidden.
You couldn't post Halo fan project threads on the most popular board of the site, because Microsoft didn't like the project having extra publicity. They sent cease and desist letters all over the web, and Yea Forums is among the site that fully complied, deleting everything mommy Microsoft deemed bad.
Genuinely one of the most blatant censorship attempts I have ever witnessed on this website.

As we know, /vg/ is a hopeless graveyard of dead communities, so Hiro didn't even bother censoring it. Microsoft just wanted the threads off Yea Forums.
So people had to escape to /vg/, where they clashed with the actual /vg/ halo community.
It developed into a community war between Yea Forums and /vg/ halofags (/hog/ vs /hg/).

Wish I was joking about all of this.
