RDR2 is the definition of bloat.

Because a Rockstar game doesnt have drones of manchildren that were conditioned over decades to blindly follow their master Nintendo.

Friendly reminder that BOTW fans DDOSs Sterling because he gave the game a (very fair) 7.0, as well as attacking other sites who gave the game similar 7-8 scores - BEFORE THEY EVEN PLAYED IT THEMSELVES!
Also launching a campaign against HZD on metacritic. There's tons of people who wrote 0 reviews for HZD and 10 for BOTW. I dunno if meta has cracked down on them by now, but at release it was ridiculsously transparent.

Thats why people dont take the same arguments for other games. Its because Nintendo fans are knowingly retarded.

The difference is that after the hype died down a few months after release every one was talking about how disappointing it was. It couldn't even win GOTY.

Meanwhile, nearly THREE YEARS after BotW's release - long after the hype has died down - people are still calling it a masterpiece.

Rockstar's main audience are normals who don't care enough to go online to talk about video games.
Nintendo's main audience are autistic manchildren unable to move past children's games, much less accept critique of those games.

Because the audiences are different, BOTW is for people who like video games, while RDR2 is for people who want to experience movies. And RDR2fags only cared about the score to spite Nintendolts.

I'll save you all the time, I own both games. RDR2 is a superb game but it is let down by slavish attention to detail and archiac game design. BotW is by far the better video game and feels like a genuine evolution for the open world genre. Sorry if that upsets anyone.

Is this how you cope with Rockstar absolutely dominating once again? Pathetic.

I played both botw and RDR2. Botw is better, but they are both not deserving of a 97.

This. Delusion is the Nintendofans bread and butter.
Thats also why they pretend that the game has never been critiized to being nothing more than a drawn out tech demo.
Its the Switch's Luigi's Mansion. Shallow and empty and just fun for two hours.
At least RDR features a proper world, set up, characters and story to engage in.

If you're not a kid and dont think that doing the same enemy camp over and over again, which deliberately has metal crates and explosives dropped around it so you can use the same 4 tools over and over again, then BOTW falls flat on its nose.

Imagine being actually so butthurt you prematurely make a dissing picture about a game thats not even remotely similar to the game you like except for being open world.
Also proving my delusion point.

The issue with BOTW criticism is that people take a bunch of 14 year olds voicing their first gaming crush online as critical consensus.

nobody cares about neet soijak posters either, redd*t

Dominating what? And RDR2 is clearly meant to evoke a cinematic experience. Sorry (not really) that the truth upsets you.

lol cope

>RDR2 is clearly meant to evoke a cinematic experience
not in the way Yea Forums uses it to denote Naughty Dog TLOU style games, which RDR2 is not

Imagine you're to retarded and desperate to shitpost you'll actually claim things to the effect of Rockstar not having an army of shitposting manchildren, lmao.

Dominating sales and video games overall. Keep coping and spouting buzzwords, manchild.

Because unlike snoys, nintendkids don't tend to start up threads shitting on other games people like. They may be manchildren but at least they're not immature obnoxious assholes.

There are plenty of examples of the reverse happening on the metacritic side, so both sides are equally retarded desu
Hell it was probably launched by the Horizonfags first because they were insecure about BotW getting a higher score than HZD, and so the Zeldafags retaliated

Attached: metacritic.jpg (819x422, 38K)

I don't care for Rockstar's generic shit games mind you and Zelda's setting and style appeals more to me although I wish it had a bit more darker themes in it (undead, dark magic etc. from classic medieval stories/folklore).
But to say that BOTW is the "best game ever" simply does not fly because the "best game" is purely up to taste and preference, it might be in the top 5 in it's genre, but there's a lot of other big genres with equally enjoyable games to play.
At this point, especially here, it just feels like console/publisher football-esque team shitflinging.

>He says, after posting literally nothing but buzzwords
user some self-awareness would be great right about now.

>literally "see that mountain you can climb it"
I guess its ok when Nintendo does it huh?

Whats even more embarassing about this is that previous Zelda games had at least interesting things on such occasions. Now there's not even a heart piece or a gadget puzzle.
No, BOTW just has a single rock that you pick up for a korok collectathron.

And fuck me that image is embarassing. I dont even like RDR2 that much but this guy I'm not such a shitter to have ever been blocked when riding or falling off mountains. That must be the biggest strawman I've seen in ages.

Sure, metacritic is full of morons doing it, so you can find opposite examples. But the Zelda thing was so organised they literally annoucned it.

>BOTW criticism is that people take a bunch of 14 year olds voicing their first gaming crush online as critical consensus.

No not really. The trouble is that this site is populated by teeny boppers who don't understand the first fucking thing about about game design.

You think that violence, swearing and nudity = deep mature content. Thats how shallow and immature you are.

Meanwhile, actual adults who understand game design and acutal fucking game developers who DESIGN video games themselves absolutely fawn over BotW because they are more educated than you. Thats why you're utter confused and dumbfounded over the praise and awards showered on BotW.

BOTW is a huge playground, designed from the ground up to be played with the DIY effect. Impressive at what it does and how it accomplishes it by constantly evolving its simple but great premise, and taking many open world elements to a next level to serve its purpose, but unfortunately sacrificing some elements that made Zelda great in the past for many people, and missing tight direction.

RDR2 is a cinematic story driven game with a world designed around narrative and an impressive and astonishing amount of detail, meaningful interactions and characters. As well as having one of the tightest directions ever. Also juggling open world gameplay and focused progression in story missions perfectly to back each other up. But is too focused on delivering a certain immersive experience for certain players and sacrifices a lot of QoL shortcuts that the wider audience has come to expect from games.

Both of these games are fundamentally different and only absolute brainlets or insecure fanboys would even start comparing them. Being build upon an "open world" foundation does not mean this games are competing in any way. You don't compare GTA and The Witcher either.
There's a good reason why Yea Forums is the only place on the net still doing this bullshit on the regular. Its the only place enabling this ridiculous nonsense.

It's a different style of game. RDR while it might not be in the same place as a franchise like COD or GTA, it still gets reviewed the same way they do. It's based entirely on a comparison to another game, in the case of RDR it's being compared to the previous RDR and GTA. In the case of COD it only gets reviewed based on other COD games.

Zelda gets reviewed based on the qualities of each individual game. If it's just the same feeling and environments as the previous title it's going to get a shit review,

Literally obsessed with RDR 2, imagine telling yourself that BotW is a better game than it every single day meanwhile metacritics keeps saying that RDR 2 is better.

I wondered why Yea Forums loves BOTW so much. Then I played it and saw how fucking huge and empty the world was and how you'd need at least 10 hours of free time a day to find fun. And that lines up with Yea Forums's NEETness.

I played both games and just liked BotW more. Granted there was a lot more story and attention to detail in RDR2, it felt too much like a real life simulator making me do tedious chores for the camp. BotW had the better gameplay, and that's ultimately what I remember games for.

This is my first response to you since making that post btw

How was I moving goalposts?
>while BotW threads are full of people shitting on every Zelda game before BotW in their attempt to defend BotW.
So?

idort here who played both games

RDR2 (PS4 slim)
A nice looking game with a big world with many systems that sadly never go into eachother nor impact gameplay in any big way outside of story progression. Its linear and COD-like mission structure is also really tiring and antithetical to ythe open world design, only 3 missions are memorable at the end of it. The game also treats the player like a baby most of the time, invasive tutorials and hand holdy as fuck. In general I found the first RDR to be a more coherent and cohesive product of quality, where as in RDR2 some systems feel well thought out but others feel like cheap and tacked on shit with no purpose.

BotW ( Switch)
Almost all of the games physics and mechanical systems can be used in cohesion and make some fun problem solving. The combat is quite barebones and I have my gripes with the breakable weapons. The game's narrative structure is the opposite of RDR2, fully open and takes the backseat in order for the gameplay and player to take charge, pure ludo. BotW also lets you fail and miss out on content, almost the whole of the tutorial can be skipped if you aren't interested or if you wanna rush it. The game treats you more like an adult when it comes to difficulty and conveying gameplay mechanics than most modern western games do, so its pretty nice for an exchange.

>cut west content
more like gassy bloat from indigestion

If you want to walk that road, then what validates the opinions of anyone who gave it a higher score? You agreeing with them doesn't mean anything. Individually, they have no more weight and are every bit as subjective as Sterling's.

No, Sterling is a fucking idiot and the fact that you can't see that is telling.

If BotW 2 is better than BotW, no. I didn't want to be disappointed by BotW, I love Zelda, I just found it extremely flawed, tedious, and repetitive. I'm keeping an open mind about BotW 2 until I know more.

Same. BotW was kinda mediocore with lots of missed potential, but I have faith in Nintendo that they'll learn from it and make the sequel one of the best games of all time.

nintendo game gets high score = its a masterpiece

>BOTW is the Godfather of video games

lol

BotW has some great mechanics, but dogshit game design. There's a difference.

calling something dogshit isn't much of an argument user

I got sick of arguing it ages ago and I'm sure as hell not about to waste time with it in a shitposting thread.

I accept your concession

i've played both games for about 150 hours, heres what i think

RDR2:
>more challenging combat (without autoaim)
>better exploration
>better story
>more unique areas
>the other ways of fighting enemies are actually viable
>better graphics
>more things to do
>restrictive and repetitive mission design
>some random encounters repeat themselves
BOTW:
>in the end game when you're really overpowered, you can mess around with weapons other than swords and bows
>Easier traversal of the world (might be a good thing or a bad thing, but for zelda, it's good because there's not much to miss in the world)
>empty world other than shrines and copy-pasted stables
>combat is repetitive (shield, wait for the enemy to attack, backflip, slow down time and spam y)
>after you do all the shrines there's nothing else to do because all of the terrible fetch quests have awful rewards

overall I'd say rdr2 is the better game, but both are amazing

More important question:

Why is it that everytime someone makes a thread about RDR2 criticism, it is just a thread about criticism.
But everytime someone makes a thread criticizing BOTW, it is (and I quote thousands of replies since release of the game) "seething"?

well sure in that case it would be justified

>You think that violence, swearing and nudity = deep mature content. Thats how shallow and immature you are.
That's not at all what I think though.

Your whole post is based on a conjured premise. I'd say its a prime example of coping, given the nonsensical and misplaced rant about the Godfather.

RDR2 is more popular than BotW dumbass, it outsold it in like 1 week.

>Meanwhile, actual adults who understand game design and acutal fucking game developers who DESIGN video games themselves absolutely fawn over BotW because they are more educated than you.
Holy fuck this guy is talking out of his ass. Literally fucking Kojima and CDPR mention RDR2 as a source of inspiration for their next games, nobody gives a shit about BoTW.

>nobody gives a shit about BoTW.

LMAO

BOTW had won GOTY while RDR2 lost to GoW. That speaks volumes of which is an actual game and which isn't.

Go play it if you care about it so much. Or do you only care about it to the extent that it allows you to shitpost on Yea Forums?

Nobody does, BoTW just rehashes gameplay from Witcher and and Ubishit games and slaps the Nintendo branding over it. It's nothing special.

if this game removed all the characters and story and kept small sidequests and just played as a sandbox western rpg/sim, i'd have been happy. but the missions and story was fucking unbearable.

Funny because BoTW2 is inspired by RDR2.

>Meanwhile, nearly THREE YEARS after BotW's release - long after the hype has died down - people are still calling it a masterpiece.
What? The general consensus is that it was hilariously overrated by critics.

Even a movie game starring Kratos is more beloved by the players than BoTW.

No, some of the younger developers on the BotW2 team has been inspired by RDR2. The older generation are still making a puzzle-adventure game like always.

It got its score purely from being a graphically impressive movie from people who clearly hate video games.

Maybe on /sonygaf/, nobody outside of your echo chamber agrees.

BoTW wasn't this though.

Is Metacritic now an "echo chamber"? Because it has by far the biggest number of votes in any net site available. It's by far the best representation of masses we have.

Yeah, because snoyfags on Yea Forums aren't famous for review bombing anything they don't like.
Nice try.

GoW won GOTY because most of the gaming media went for the underdog with the comeback story instead of the monster behemoth RDR2. And RDR already won GOTY in 2010, so they were hesitant to shower the direct sequel with awards as well. It wasn't actually about which is game is better. It's stupid but that's how the gaming press thinks.

Evryone can get into Zelda because it's a game made for children, but to enjoy RDR2 you need to have a delevoped taste. It's like comparing Marvel to proper film. Both are critically acclaimed but couldn't be any more different.

Why do Nincels get shafted every where they go?

Because BOTW is an actual open world game, unlike RDR2 which is literally a railroad in a big map.

I don't care that it succeeded, I can play it on 4k 60fps on my PC if I want. I'm simply ousting the fact that your lying and shilling for a megacorp.

imagine actually thinking this, lmao

Those who decided to actually play it are still stuck in the tutorial which seemed to go on for three or four Months. Legend says that you actually get to play the game at some point.

Lol sure kid. Nintendo has jumped on rockstar's open-world bandwagon not the other way around.

>I don't care that it succeeded, I can play it on 4k 60fps on my PC if I want. I'm simply ousting the fact that your lying and shilling for a megacorp.
That just sounds like COPING harder than I thought imaginable.
Did Zelda rape you so hard it still hurts or why are you so upset?
Making dozens of images must have been a lot of work, how butthurt did it make you?

Legend of Zelda 1 was open world before Rockstar was even a company. Wind Waker was Open World.

>he still denies facts
LOL, snoyfags are delusional as always.
Remember that the next time people call you out for being the worst fanbase in existence.

I thought RDR2 was generally regarded as pretty good. What are you talking about?

>cope cope cope
You're a broken record dude, just admit defeat.

Maybe just like GTA IV, people are realizing how overrated it really is.

The type of open world BotW is was started during the GTA3-SA days.

But it's a fact. Anyone can enjoy zelda beacuse it's a fun, simple, easy game with good mechanics to play around for a while. While RDR2 can only be enjoyed if you have the patience for it. It's a game designed for people who walk on purpose in games just for the inmersion. Everyone can enjoy coca-cola but not everyone would enjoy scotch.

Yet more are seeking RDR2 for a gaming experience over Zelda

Zelda is a game for kiddies and manchildren. RDR2 is a Rockstar open world boasting insane graphics and tons of content, as well as an actual storyline. It has a broader appeal than kiddie Nintendoshit, that's why it sold more. Stop pretending you're mature for enjoying the more normiecore kind of game outside of Fortnite and CoD.

But you could actually climb that mountain then sheild surf don’t that bitch then paraglide away like a mother fucking champ

lmao go suck some treehouse cock little nincel

>Unless you do a mission, in which case walking two meters into the wrong direction is an instant failure.
Of course it would be, as Arthur wouldn't just start doing retarded things as that it's not his personality. If you were the audience for RDR2, you would never fail any mission for doing something that you weren't supposed to, as you would always do what's it's expected of Arthur without even needing the game to tell you.

>If you were the audience for RDR2, you would never fail any mission for doing something that you weren't supposed to, as you would always do what's it's expected of Arthur without even needing the game to tell you.
That barely sound like a video game at this point, more like a hyper normalfag rail shooter.

Some space for player expression is needed to make a good GAME.

RDR2 sold more because of brand name. It would have half the sales if it wasn't a Rockstar game, as normies turn against it after the first week. Journalists also ended up turning against it and giving GOTY awards to the inferior game.

>lmao go suck some treehouse cock little nincel
>Literally reduced so snoyfag buzzwords
Did those words hit you so deep you became retarded?

But Zelda doesn't sell because of brand name right?

RDR2 sold because RDR1 was excellent.

BoTW sold because it's the only open-world game on Switch.

>Some space for player expression is needed to make a good GAME.
You have the open world for that. I was just talking about the missions. Arthur wouldn't hogtie someone and drag them with their horse but veryone it's going to do that in the game.

Ok user, you're so mature and patrician for enjoying this incredibly easy and casual mass-marketed hyped up AAA Rockstar normie game where every mission is a shooting gallery. Truly a gentleman of refined taste.

Zelda games don't sell particularly great. BOTW sold almost over twice the previous best selling game.

>Ok user, you're so mature and patrician for enjoying this incredibly easy and casual mass-marketed hyped up AAA Rockstar normie game where every mission is a shooting gallery. Truly a gentleman of refined taste.
I never said that. I only said that you need a more developed taste to enjoy RDR2 than Zelda and that it's a fact.

>. Arthur wouldn't hogtie someone and drag them with their horse but veryone it's going to do that in the game.
But how is that immersive?
RDR2 is basically two games grafted onto one another with completely conflicting goals and rules.
Not what I would expect from a game that is centered around immersion at all costs.

>I never said that. I only said that you need a more developed taste to enjoy RDR2 than Zelda and that it's a fact.

They are about as mainstream as CoD or FIFA.

"developed taste" my ass, it's normalfag fodder through and through.

>But how is that immersive?
It's not and that's why you don't have to do it. You were the one asking for player agency and the open world gives you that if you want.

Damn dude, your 1 (one) example to my 4 (four) really disproves my argument, NINBINGS WIN AGAIN! SNOY BTFO!

Lmafo yes It seems

I didn't say Rockstar games, i was talking about RDR2. GTAV and BOTW have the same kind of philosophy. GTAV and RDR2 don't.

>Everyone loves to bring up BOTW’s 97 to shut down criticism

>It's not and that's why you don't have to do it. You were the one asking for player agency and the open world gives you that if you want.
But then it would have failed the "developed" taste audience you are trying to pretend RDR2 has.
You can't praise a game for going with an audience that demands immersion above all else (even if it means instantly failing you for the most retarded shit) and then allow it to get away with ignoring this immersion in the open world.

Zelda is casual shit too

> The opinions of Game Devs and Designers are MUCH better than the opinions of the consumers. If these people love it, then EVERYONE should.

If you give game developers too much credit, despite their job being to create something to entice the consumers, then you get bad games. Liking a game and being a game developer is literally fucking irrelevant because the game wasn't made for them specifically, you retard. Now every Dev is going to try and copy the same formula and design and it'll fail.

Its been more than two years and morons are still trying to think up 'flaws' in BotW.

Sorry but the uneducated opinions of children don't matter if they can just be laughed at.

Will Nincels ever get over RDR 2 being better than BotW?

RDR2 has ruined other video games for me. I now can't start another game and expect to get more than a few hours until I get bored, drop it and go back to rdr2, I bought it launch day and haven't even touched online

Does the delusion help you cope?

Holy shit, that is truly pathetic!

But shouldn't Nintendo fags be posting Sony hate threads everyday?
But the most I've seen are sonyfags posting Nintendo hate threads everyday. I just guessed it's because Nintendo Chads have games too play

when I think of masterpieces I think of games like deus ex, or baulders gate. you can call botw good if you want but to say it's better then the likes of those games is absurd

unironically it is one the few modern game that promote gameplay freedom in approche like deus ex or system shock. And it is the probably the only one that got mainstream praise.
Anyway its success can mean only good thing for people who like those old games unlike some gta clone or an other story heavy third person shooter.

Are you talking about Just Cause 3 now? Because that game offers objectively more "gameplay freedom" than BoTW.

You didn't even make the game, why do you feel the need to defend it so hard?

This image sums things up perfectly. BotW is on a different planet compared to every other open world game.

It's on the planet up every Nintendo fanboy's ass, yeah

Snoyfags getting absolutely destroyed in this thread. Good laughs all round.

Keep seething over RDR 2 being the better game. Utterly obsessed and traumatised by the domination and success of RDR 2.

I'm not defending a game. I just wonder why people bring up censorship against Nintendo when it is the one company on the console market not enforcing it on every publisher.

Because it was easier to do this 10 years ago whereas people are much more critical now

They censored a shitty ecchi game, who cares
