what went so FUCKING RIGHT holy SHIT Sekiro dethroned as game of the year
agreed, but this thread won't do well here user, steamthots are mad so no matter how good the game is, it's shit because of a squarish jaw and fatman gabe not taking his 30 percent of it
>metroidvania Are you like legit retarded? Serious question

The map system sucks, it doesn't mark anything so now I have level 5 access but have no idea where any of the locked doors I've passed before are.
And they didn't do enough with the setting, most of the SCPs are really cookie cutter outside of a few cool ones.

It hurts that all the discussion about this is going to be derailed because of Epic. I hope it gets some proper discussion next year when it comes out on Steam unless everyone just prates it by then like I did It's a pretty good game. I was pleasantly surprised with how smooth it is and I'm enjoying this fully 3D enviroment metroidvania gameplay. It may be because I was expecting the game to be mediocre at best and hold my attention for one afternoon but it turned out much better.
Wow, you have to shoot bad guys in a shooter? Mindblowing
Zachary Cox
god damn the anchor boss is literally artificial difficulty >"hehe, have fun fighting with these regular mobs and try not to fall off the map, and remember to keep tabs on the boss at the same time xd"

>first person shooter >shoot people I'm confused, is this just bait?
The environment damage is so fucking cool. There is something very satisfying on a visceral level about seeing the room you were just fighting in completely wrecked.
Jaxon Ward
In Alan Wake the enemies didn't have guns, they used melee weapons like hatchets, knives and axes. Fuck off dumb nigger.
Zachary Taylor
white people invented guns, they get to play with them(don't give me that chinese fire lance shit)
Jace Cox
Any tips for farming whatever those points you collect to upgrade weapons to get more slots? Wanna upgrade my Charge weapon but I'm like 20k short.

interconnected map doesn't make a metroidvania, or dark souls 1 would be one it needs to gate the access to said areas behind abilities for one

>Sekiro dethroned It's not like you'd need much to dethrone that from anywhere, sounds like you have shit taste OP, therefore your entire opinion has been discarded.
this game is so ineffective in what its trying to do its going full bizarre/weird right away instead of being gradual, which lessens the effect of the narrative its trying to tell its honestly kinda boring after the halfway point and the map system is not that good

>sekiro bad >cuckboys pic
Xavier Ramirez
Never said it was bad, it's just nowhere near any kind of throne, it's the worst From's game in the last 10 years. It's like those normalfaggots yelling "my god borderlands 2 GOTY" "oh my god Persona 5 GOTY", sure, like what you want, but don't expect someone to take your shit opinion seriously.
Chase Richardson
what did he mean by this?
Colton Baker
Dark Souls 1 is a metroidvania, though.
Ian Rogers
But control does that
It's an entirely closed large map that is completely connected and you need abilities to get access to other areas. But you can actually use your smarts and physics to cheat your way into places.
Brayden Wilson
How well does the game handle sequence-breaking? Anyone making a metroidvania today would have to be aware of how prevalent that aspect is to in the genre.
Bentley Stewart
>the game is so shit an unpopular that OP need to start a fanbase war just so people talked about his shit game This is sad.

what the fuck are you babbling about, this game has nothing in common wi-
>music
oh, right, a zoomer. MGR's cringey weebshit music was terrible and I had to mute it
Luke Price
I'm convinced we truly are in the shittest timeline.
Remedy puts out the best tps since the first Max Payne and Yea Forums slurps up the cum of WoW being re released instead. Just like how Yea Forums is basically a kpop board now and Yea Forums has game of thrones and capeshit threads
People born after 1990 are a cancer on the planet
Aiden Rivera
the hour long IGN interview with sam lake mentioned that the director of control (mikael something) is a big fan of dark souls and that both he and sam were consciously trying to go all out with Control without thinking too hard about typical player handholding. Its also why the game gets SO weird so fast that most people will be extremely confused for the first few hours and only gradually start to pick up any of the pieces
Kevin Price
>nothing in common >heavy rely on block/parry mechanic Die, fromshit >cringey >weebshit vocaroo.com/i/s0EkDdSP8xuN
Jacob Clark
but MGRR is babbys first hack and slash where you can literally mash light attacks forever and flick the stick forward to also parry attacks as they come? Sekiro actually forces you to time the parries and react to specific timings and perilous attacks
David Bell
>block/parry
What the fuck are you talking about, Control doesn't have a parry mechanic, the block is a shield that you hold up. You fly in the air and air dodge and shoot guns. You only have 1 melee "push" attack. It literally is nothing like MGR you fucking retard do you even know what games this thread is about?
Kevin Cruz
>forces you time the parries >l1 spam to win Que >react to specific timings >spam O forward to mikiri counter And he says about mashing light attack in mgr
Thanks for confirming youve never even played sekiro, or maybe you tried and actually couldnt beat the tutorial or something because youre a literally retarded liar. ""spamming"" anything in sekiro is impossible if you want to live since unlike casual dogshit like MGRR the parry isnt context sensitive that bamham magnets you to incoming animations as they come, you either time sekiros parry right or you dont and if you dont you get hit during the recovery
