I haven’t heard of either of these games.

What made control flopp?
Blake Perez
how can they think that they can attract customers with a face like that?
Juan Cooper
It runs like ass on the base PS4 so what can you expect.
Benjamin Reed
A name like Control sounds boring and uninspired
Dylan Miller
The NFL really needs to tone down these alternate uniforms.
Carson Nelson
He's a pedophile? Absolutely based!
Owen Hughes
Control is too smart for gamers.
Anthony Young
you can tell all of that from an anonymous post?
go back, redditspacer.
Camden Baker
Yeah, terrible title honestly. Remedy really can't catch a break, hope we get Alan Wake 3 soon.
Jose Edwards
Garbage ass game. Performance was abysmal on console. Narrative was wannabe David Lynch shit. Destructive environments were about on par with Ghostbusters '09
Cooper Torres
I pirated it. The only cool thing about it is the SCP setting. I mean I liked it, I always wanted a good SCP game.
Ryan Sanchez
Why do Ş*nyniggers have such shit taste?
Jordan Martinez
Becaus PewDiePie is playing. It's a streamer game.
Christopher Ramirez
Maybe get a PC poorfag
Noah Cruz
hahah poor cuntrol
not so strong and independent huh
Nolan Thomas
Guess which one was shilled hard to normies?
Cooper Edwards
can people please stop pretending alan wake was good? its just as mediocre as quantum break and control. max payne is the only good game remedy ever made.
Jayden Carter
I had never even heard of the game until people started bitching about the man-faced main character
Brody Hall
Nathan Scott
not that guy, but that explain it
Isaiah Miller
Lol fuck off, it was a very atmospheric game with great storytelling, good characters (even if Wake himself sometimes walked the line of "too boring") and a fun light mechanic that was better than it had any right to be and managed to carry the game's combat into "OK" territory.
Logan Hernandez
Control just had some tranny-looking chick on the box art. Man of Medan, meanwhile, has a more promising piece of box art that looks like it mite b gud. Given just these factors I'm not surprised more PS4 users picked Man of Medan.
Kayden Young

Honestly I heard a lot of things about Control, like how it bricked consoles or overheated computers. I'm sure that was the real reason it didn't do so well.
Jonathan Lopez

Is man of Medan that game namco are publishing because it looked pretty cool from the trailers. I'll pick it up when its dirt cheap though because it is i presume a walking sim.

My buddy and I played through control and he's like I got quantum break and I got Alan wake too and I'm like cool. On the inside I was like control sucked so much dick I won't fucking bother with any of them.
Gonna go play deadly premonition instead.
Hunter Bailey
Why would anyone buy Control on PS4? News flash. The PS3 version of Crysis that ran at 12fps didn't sell so good, either. Control is a PC game through and through, and just like all Remedy games, Sony is the lowest priority. PC >>> Xbox >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Playstation.
Dylan Thompson
Doesn't Man of Medan take place on a ship?
Owen Anderson
Remedy have literally never made a bad game. Sam Lake is a god-tier writer and designer.
Jackson King
Remedy should just make PC exclusives from now on. Have ANY of their games sold well on consoles, and do console gamers even give a shit about Remedy games?
Parker Watson
Never heard of it
Brandon Jenkins
Timmy paid for my copy.
Zachary Jackson
Astral Chain and Control have fairly similar sales numbers, though.
Nathan Lopez

Does this mean Control didn't flop then?
Adam Johnson

Jaxson Richardson
Yeah user the dmc5 girls are so neotonous
Dominic Butler
Their games usually sell well long term on PC and that's where pretty much their entire fanbase resides. However, console ports are a necessary evil to cover production costs.
Kayden Sanchez
>nobody mentions Nintendo at all
>B-BUT NINTENDO!!!!
Why are Snoys so cucked and seething? It's kind of sad...
Alexander Campbell
it's heavy rain with even less gameplay
Levi Thomas
seems like a cool game, sony will probably have it on ps+ soon
Ryan Sanchez
It wasn't completely out of no where. Supermassive made Until Dawn which received a moderate amount of popularity and was extremely similar. It also got released as a "free" game with PS plus one month. A good number of people played Until Dawn and I'm sure some of them bought Man of Medan because it was the same kind of game from the same developers.
Mason Diaz
I'm pretty sure that chick in the top thumbnail isn't from the game.
Easton Powell
It launched in a sorry state on console and a large chunk of Pc is going to pirate it and weird exclusive outfits and season pass be didn’t help. First impressions matter
Lincoln Bailey
source?
the only confirmed source I know said that astral chains was number 1 in uk while control only managed to reach like number 4, getting bested by older games and a new car game
Logan Davis
MP 1 and 2 have tons of sales on ps4 for sure, but are those games even remedy at this point or does all money go to R*
Ryan Bell
Short, overpriced soulless shooter. Glad it fucking flopped. Such low-effort garbage shouldn't be rewarded.
Logan Myers
Control probably had a larger budget than AC. It's also multiplat, so only equalling the numbers of an exclusive niche action game on the Switch isn't grand.
Jackson Collins
the shilling of control on Yea Forums was so obvious and pathetic
Nicholas Sullivan
It means they're both selling "eh" numbers in regions such as the UK. Astral Chain is doing especially well in Nintendo woshipping territories such as Spain, but there was only about 1k difference in first week sales in the UK.
Ultimately, some games are driven by word of mouth. Control has been very well received and a lot of filmmakers and such have been gushing over it. Control was made on a relatively moderate budget. I think it'll be fine long term.
Leo Rodriguez
DMCV isn’t censored on PS4, try again, tranny.
Justin Reyes
It's fun and aesthetic
Bentley Richardson
There was literally only a thousand or so copies between #1 and #4.
Chase King

There's a shock
Cooper Adams
>PS4
if you seriously play multiplats on a console you might be retarded.
Gavin Fisher
I didn't buy it because apparently it runs like ass even on PS4 pro.
Would have gone with the PC version but /ourguy/ Tim doesn't want me to buy it.
Parker Rivera
I'm more of a pointed upwardward kinda guy myself
Zachary Clark
Fuck off, pleb.
Alexander Price
Yes it is, it's the only console where there is a lens flare to block naked woman's asses.
Liam Rogers
It runs like ass on Cuckbox too, shill.
Adrian Brooks
NOoooooo my rtx demo!
Julian Perry
Justin Cook
yeah but they lost a big chunk of their userbase by EGS-exclusivity. Im never going to buy it and I have 1500 games on Steam. Pirated it and thought it was pretty decent.
Oliver Mitchell
>one of the most forgettable games ever made flopped
Whoa!
Ryder Mitchell
Including Max Payne Remedy has never made a single good game.
Angel Rivera
They uncensored it with patch 1.07 but only in North America if you are a Euromonkey you are still censored
Asher Sanders
Not too sure about that. Astral Chain is 2nd on the eshop currently and 18 on amazon. (NA)Control is at 86 wtf.
Lucas Torres
No it runs quite well on the Xbox One X.
Also, I like how OP is a giant faggot that intentionally omits the follow up tweets talking about how second week sales have improved.
Jayden Hughes
They make interesting games. And I want more of the industry to be like that but in reality the actual game play is usually the weakest part of most of their releases. It as if they're constantly tripping over this line they're trying to walk of making a "game" like Man of Medan or Detroit:Become Human but with more classic or conventional interactive elements or more involved play style. And on paper that sounds great, they just never really pull it off. I think in the future they adopt a simpler less graphically intensive style and focus more of their time on enjoyable play mechanics.
Liam Reyes
Sure she is, it's the Pin-Up chick that chases Conrad. She only looks like that for a few seconds before turning all old and shit.
Adam Sullivan
Matthew Morris
Kill yourself Retardera
You don’t belong here pedophile
Owen Cook
The game has sold better thanks to EGS, if anything. Only a statistically insignificant minority don't use EGS for Fortnite and all the other cool games Epic have moneyhatted.
Dominic Sanders
Control sold like only 20k in uk from what I remember
Samuel Carter
>cinematic garbage sells more than one of the best TPS ever created
woooooooooooow how could this happen on ps4
Jaxson Cook
Max Payne 1 and 2 are pretty much peerless TPS games. Control is similarly excellent. Was your first Remedy game the consolized oddity that was Alan Wake or something?
Tyler Cooper
lot of people still dont know it exists. extremely poor marketing when game had big budget
Anthony Walker
Wasn't astral chain under shipped everywhere? The game's digital sales are likely bigger if platinum is calling it a success
Xavier Murphy
>1440p
>19fps
Say Xbone, Pajeet.
Chase Baker
This, Alan Wake is fucking trash.
Alexander Carter
>Control has been very well received and a lot of filmmakers and such have been gushing over it.
Is that because everyone and their grandmother forgot this shit was even coming out, so now the shills are in full force?
Justin Butler
seriously doubt that its insignificant, unless you can back that up? I know plenty of people that are never going to use it (anecdotal, yes I know) it'd just surprise me if they had a big chunk of market share that's all.
Unless you mean Epic gave them lots of money so it doesn't matter to them, in which I'd agree.
Gavin Reed
kill yourself newfag
Ethan Reed
If it wasn't for Control coming with my RTX card as a pack in, I wouldn't have even known it existed.
Seems like a decent game that completely failed in marketing. Only ever saw people talking about it just 2 days before release.
Gavin Gomez
How on earth are Max Payne and Control not focused on enjoyable play mechanics? Control is like Crysis meets Psi-Ops. It's absolutely sublime to play.
Landon Turner
How long before Remedy is bought by Microsoft?
James Young
Control is much lower budget than people seem to realise. It had a dev cycle of 2-3 years which is a heck of a lot shorter than most Remedy titles. Also its design is far more economical. It doesn't blow its budget trying to be "cinematic".
Jackson Sullivan
The anti-EGS haye brigade are a tiny vocal minority who are about to get absolutely obliterated by Borderlands 3.
Ethan Roberts
Too floaty.
Jayden Nguyen
>defending a proven pedophile
Benjamin Mitchell
Dilate
Oliver Fisher
What I find funny is that the game was so fucking poorly marketed that there was seemingly no hate for it being Epic exclusive since not even The anti-EGS knew it came out.
How the fuck do you release a AAA budget game an no one knows?
Jackson Parker
Nice projection, faggot.
Lincoln King
>literal proven pedophile
>NUHH UHH UHHUHHHH YOU GUYS WHINE ABOUT VNS YOU'RE JUST AS BAD

Shame, I thought the game was pretty great
there was no reasonable way for me to buy it on PC though so had to pirate.
Kevin Baker
Call out reddit spacing
when they're consistently
doing this shit and not just once.
Carson Robinson
How the fuck can a game where floating in midair is a core game mechanic be "too floaty"? Whst is the appropriate amount of float for a game focused on making stuff float with mind powers?
Levi Perry
I enjoy seeing games that have different agendas than those I believe in do poorly.
I just continue to keep on winning.
Brody Edwards
Couldn't given a toss about this. Just get Alan Wake 2 sorted ffs.

Jeremiah Anderson
Look at all the nintendo pedos angry at this lmao
Ethan Rivera
Control being multiplatform and selling slightly worse than a switch exclusive is not a good thing.
Matthew Rogers
Redpill me on resetera, what is going on with the pedo shit or is it just a meme
Grayson Lee
So Stalone browses Resetera?
Oliver Jackson
No, it was Max Payne 2.
But this is a good example. Max Payne has a much simpler or straightforward story. It's a "classic" kind of game model. QB, AW, and Control (and this is a positive to me) have much more involved stories. And their game play mechanics are non conventional. And if I'm remembering correctly "bullet time" was an equally interesting or fresh original concept at the time of Max Paynes release but it didn't detract from the game as much as the things Remedy has implemented since. And I think that's because Remedy puts to much priority on trying to recreate the excitement of a new kind of game mechanic that they won't take a step back and realize that maybe they're coming up short in other areas.
>Control is similarly excellent.
I just disagree. It's not a I didn't like it overall but what I liked was wondering around control looking, reading and learning about O.o.P. and A.W.E cases. The idea behind the play style is a good one but the execution was severely lacking. It was maybe after two hours or so where enemy encounters for me were just tedious, not overly difficult, just boring. It was the thing that stopped my progression of just walking around the Oldest House and looking at weird shit. And that's a problem to me. Overall I'd still rate control as good game, something I hope gets a sequel because I'm interested in that world/story. I just didn't enjoy PLAYING it.
Angel Campbell
This is a PC game, though. A good old fashioned PC game with afterthought console versions that run like garbage.
Asher Bennett
>and selling slightly worse than a switch exclusive
That would imply control sold well.
Zachary Parker
In so fucking sad right now. Like holy shit I've been riding a high from playing this game and I'm crashing from this
Jaxon Murphy

Yep, mentioning resetera negatively makes all sonyfags SEETHE.
Should tell you something about them
Ryder Barnes
>Soulless artstyle and character designs
>Doesn't appeal to normalfags or weebs
Maybe Remedy should make a game that actually appeals to someone outside the PS4 interactive movie crowd.
Hudson Gutierrez
I wonder consider that good, then again we don't know what sales expectations were. Given how little advertising Control got though, maybe sales expectations weren't that high? I didn't even know about the game until people started talking about it having SCP elements.
Colton Powell

Daniel Cooper
There's one thing that prevents me from liking this game enough to keep going: the movement.
I don't know if I'll be able to explain it, but it's something I noticed with many games, specially AA. Like, the balance of endlag, aniamtion polish and VFX aren't good enough and make the game feel worse than it probably is. Take the dash ability for example, it feels like shit. Barely any particles around Jesse, her animation is really static (it's like she's floating rather than dashing) and the enviroment isn't very affected. In contrast, the melee attack looks really cool, but doesn't feel as powerful when landing it and it does the same aniamtion in the air, like Jesse is standing on ground.
Also the strictness of climbing a ledge animations are so slow that whenever you try to quickly more around the enviroment you'll be pausing from time to time because Jesse needs to vault or grab onto an obstacle.
I know they are different games but I never felt these when playing something like DOOM, Dragon's dogma or even Fortnite. I usually describe this to my friends as "dudebro" or "paycheck" polish, because it's the kind of things that only someone autistic over this precision and "feeling" when playing will do it, which most A+ companies lack as most workers are dudebros or just go there for a paycheck, without investing themselves that much on the game.
The rest of the game is fine, can't say anything too bad or good. I'll recognize I love how much shit floats around during combat, tho.

seems to be doing well desu, I don't see how it's a flop at all.
William Morales
Ummm... what? Why would Sony fanboys care in any way that this flopped? It wasn't PS4 exclusive or console exclusive or timed exclusive in any way and Remedy's last game (Quantum Break) wasn't even on PS4.
Evan Baker

Angel Morris
Sam Lake did a great job weaving good writing in with a nice game back in the Max Payne remedy era. He just became rather too indulgent towards the writing while Remedy gameplay turns into a vestigal appendage or something.
Alan Wake could've been better with refinement (I mean, I thought AW: American Nightmare's writing was terrible, but it did refine the gameplay) while Quantum Break was a tv show starring that guy. You know the one, I think his name is CIA.

It's only as slow as you feel like playing it. You can shield dodge and slam into enemies at mach 5 the whole time too, that's what I did since they drop HP on damage so you can just whip around from group to group of enemies.

Levi Sanders
The game was a big let down following Until Dawn. You could really see the difference all the extra Sony money made. Facial caps and animations were janky in Man of Medan, it was also like half the length of Until Dawn and had half of the decision charts. On my first playthrough I managed to do everything right and get all the characters to survive, which I cant say I did in Until Dawn.
Austin Garcia
>movie game

It's good to see retards who didn't play it still are very vocal about it. It only helps the game.

Isaiah Wright
>What made control flopp?
Remedy
Noah Cook
>remarkable
You have no fucking idea what you're talking about what the fuck. The best part about the game is the presentation of its world and all the quirky little charm Remedy always adds with its FMVs and shit. The gameplay amounts to fucking shooting your one (1) gun with barely any fucking mods, use your barebones powers while reloading, and then shoot again. Rinse and fucking repeat.
The ending was an obvious WAIT FOR THE DLC LMAO cop out and the enemy variety was utter dogshit aside from a few side bosses. Not even mentioning the utterly unremarkable upgrade and loot system they came up with.
Lucas Watson
Yeah but those ray traced coffee mugs looked FANTASTIC.
Asher Rodriguez

What is it about this game that causes lardasses like you to hate it incoherently and with a passion? Is it the epic store thing?
Brandon Phillips
>Finnish games
Lol ya they never had a chance. Like with turkey they’ve only made one good game or game series
Nathaniel Campbell
Men of Medan is one of the most popular game series of all time alongside Call of the Battlefield and Fafa:Kick Masters
Jeremiah Fisher
I usually ignore twitter threads because they're populated by human trash like the OP and you, but it struck me as odd that you only mentioned PS4 sales numbers and assumed a flop, when the game has known performance issues on that platform specifically.
Ryan Allen
Epic store + unsexy main character model. It ticks all of Yea Forums's outrage of the week meme themes.
Bentley Green
Lmao okay? What do you want me to say? That it's cool that instead of giving you a separate shotgun a separate machine gun a separate charged rifle alongside your pistol they just say fuck it and put all that shit as mods on your fucking gun. Instead of you know? Making them all separste so they don't fucking use the same ammo and reload timer, and then give the service weapon actual interesting upgrades.
You're a fucking shill.
I love Remedy but Control is just okay. Above avreage if all you care about is the world and the writing and even then Jesse can't hold a candle to Alan Wake and Max Payne.
Blake Peterson
exclusive and terrible marketing? no one even knew about the game before it was out
Maybe the developers though epic would do some marketing for them but nope
Ethan Reyes

ah that's what's got you upset, chin up lad, you'll get there someday.
Jose Smith

Joshua Perez
>Lmao okay shill XD
Now you're contradicting yourself, you have no idea what the gameplay entails and are upset because of your own stupidity. You're criticizing a game you know nothing about and still have the brass balls to call anyone else a shill.
Daniel Taylor
Man of Medan is the name of the first instalment in the Dark Pictures Anthology. Its not a game series.
Charles Murphy
bad marketing and unattractive female protagonist meme.
Matthew King
>I was just pretending guys
James Peterson
Fucking wow ammo management is so hard. After I use up my ammo I just use throw shit at enemies like some braindead monkey. Oh maybe I'll power charge at them or try to mindcontrol somebody wait I even have a shi--- whoops guns reloaded time to shooty to shoot again and then use my throw power again that's pretty much a glorified charge weapon that sometimes takes into context what you're slinging.
It's not about ammo management you fucking knob. It's about giving the player the ability to rapidly and frantically flip between weapons without being encumbered by the downtime of having to deal with a universal reload time.
Angel Edwards

Hudson Brooks
My trust in Remedy has fallen dramatically since Alan Wake (lazy lip syncing, no sequel and yeeeeeeeears of cockteasing), and Quantum Break (shitty tv show game). Control looks good, but these days naturally people wonder:
>what else is there to the game and will they try to screw me with mtx and dlc?
So they wait for sales. Man of Medan has the benefit of the doubt -- not with me, I judge games individually -- with Until Dawn being good.

The setting is pretty unique even if it takes from SCP the x-files and other places. The gunplay feels good despite your spergout about having a transforming gun and you have telekinetic powers as a backup. The game has an actually interesting place to explore, and doesn't hold your hand with objective markers. It also has some amazing voice acting, and the usual Remedy side content.
It simply plays well, has an interesting plot and it becomes evident once you sit down and actually go through it.
My problem isn't with people disliking games I like, it's with idiots like you who evidently didn't play it but feel the need to share their opinions.
Owen Barnes

That sort of consolewarrior mentality doesn't only affect nintendo, and you know it. This backlash is because of the epin games store mostly and le steam army getting their panties in a twist.
Now that I agree with, it does have some performance issues, especially when it goes full physics. This is a valid complaint and people should be demanding patches instead of crying about the gameplay itself, which is pretty solid.

Nolan Hughes
So the game has good writing and an interesting world courtesy of Remedy? I agree.
Side readings are great? I agree in fact the best parts of the game are the Threshold Kids, anytime Darling or Ahti is on screen, the little pieces of REDACTED fluff, Oceanview Motel, and a whole other sleu of shit I already praised.
It's a 3d metroidvania that asks for exploration? I agree except for the fact that some dumbfuck decided to put all the interesting bosses in the side missions while the main route is woefully disappointing.
The gameplay just feels good? That's a fucking nah. The gameplay is a chore. By the halfway point I was groaning at the combat and was just wishing that it would give me a new scene with Trench again or another Darling clip. The only time during late game when the action was anywhere close to entertaining was when Ashtray Maze happened and I'm sure that's only because of the music. Beyond that all the powers exist to simple serve the shallow spectacle which is the WOW VISUALS. The fucking esseJ and Anchor fights are a complete fucking joke. Despite how interested I was at the unique bosses.

I mean, she's good looking and you can buy Max falling for her, but she's not some 10/10 or whatever. Plus what the fuck does this matter? Control's protagonist isn't exceptionally ugly either, and I don't play videogames to look at titties.
Trying to make this shit about how hot the characters are is just retarded. Control flopped for a reason and it had NOTHING to do with the design of the main character, imo.

Turns out when you make a game that no one can play, no one plays your game. They shouldn't have focused on graphics so much, it only hurt them. PC players couldn't have risked buying a game that theyre not sure they can run, and no console can run it well. They should have prioritized margeting instead - literally no one knows what the game actually is and what it's about. Had they built hype with a smart campaign and explained the genre, shown a bit of the story, they'd been okay. Its fucking SCP, people love this shit, yet I've heard nothing about the setting from the devs.

To be honest she's not distractingly ugly or anything. Just looks like a very bland person. If I'm not playing the game to jerk off then it seems fine. If you think she's hideous then you've probably not seen many women outside of porn. I mean, do you have any idea how ugly people get?

It probably had zero effect in grand scale of things, the game was so poorly marketed in general that vast majority of normies didn't probably even know that Remedy is developing a new game and even less that it came out.
I'm not sure if I ever even saw Control threads on Yea Forums before OneAngryIncel started raving about it and threads appeared.

Jesse as MC is weird in general, concerning how "realistically" plain they made her and the last minute "girl power" marketing they uselessly tried to pull. She's a female protagonist without any feminism, the entire game would be exactly the same if Jesse was male.
They might as well have made her even somewhat flashy and sexy to suit strange action game better, their writing and themes of the game have no pandering to female audiences at all so it makes little commercial sense to attempt to aim the main character at them just by making her "relateable" for plain gamer girls.
Hudson Flores

This game proves how great EGS is for developers, without them the game would be just a big failure but at least in this case they got a big bag of money from Timmy.

Shit reasoning like this is why we get Witcher 3 where Geralt looks like some nerd's fantasy of what he wishes he could be.

Hudson Evans
Back when they were still neoGAF, two of their mods caught caught hoarding CP in separate incidents. One was arrested
The other was suspected when he kept coming to the defense of pedos in threats about pedophilia laws and crimes. He claimed that his posts were valuable because he got PMs "thanking" him from pedos who felt marginalized and dehumanized.
One woman who was a victim of childhood sexual abuse took exception to it, and he threatened to ban her from the topic for being irrational. Then people checked his imgur or photobucket account and it had wayyyy too many "artsy" pics of half-naked kids

One of the major turn off for me but nobody has mentioned yet is how much she fucking talks to herself.

>It's impossible to have any real discussion about Control when most faggots here can't do anything but whine about the fucking protagonist not being a 10/10 model.
Jill is a 7/10 and I would fug her. Western models now a days have the faces of fatcows with the bodies of 10/10 supermodels lel.
Jack Powell
It's Yea Forums, we don't discuss games. We look for the most insignificant shit to complain about.
But the reality is there isn't much to talk about. The gameplay is just your standard Remedy TPS fare, but the difference is you now get a telekinesis thing.
Ayden Morgan
>>woman with a gun
>>???
>what a shitty marketing
It's shitty concept. The main character has fucking superpowers. Why the fuck does she need a gun?
Robert Peterson
its like a magic science gun or some shit
Adam Gray
fridge-sama~
Austin Allen
>trying to shift blame
Sorry Epic shill but everyone knows that the game flopped because it is an Epic exclusive and simply can't build a player base to generate positive buzz from word of mouth. If the game was on Steam and GOG a lot more people would've bought the game and just by being on GOG they would've generated positive buzz. Sadly their publisher is retarded and chose to take the Epic money and left the game to die.
Jace Fisher
> Epic shill
Don't have an Epic account, don't play Epic games, only found out today Control was an Epic exclusive. Sorry, but you're wrong, and I completely agree that the game would have sold better on Steam.
Noah Walker
>her generic strong wyman personality or the games sjw Garage story about women empowerment
from what little I know about the game I didn't get that impression at all. It's about a SCP rip-off.
Jayden Morales
The actress her model is based on is beautiful IRL, why did they downgrade her? Trench, Arish, and Darling are handsome
Josiah Clark
It's a big budget SCP game.
Levi Smith
Whats up with all the dislikes
Kayden Williams
Putting someone with a gun on the cover allegedly boosts sales of games and movies. Its why Bioshock Infinite and Cyberpunk 2077 have those generic covers
Ethan Moore
this kek
I remember their presentation on a local conference: they showed all the same corridors and square gun twice with loud music. What the actual fuck.
I also was kinda disappointed in quantum break, so didn't bother to look up what it's all about
Gabriel Jackson
Good, Control is the antithesis of what I want video games to be.
Caleb Rivera
i hate tim and epic too but if they made this exact game with anime girls and pantsu Yea Forums would be shitting itself in feverish ecstasy
Ethan Martin
well yeah no one likes ugly characters, cute attractive stuff sells.
Liam Lewis
Yes.
Nolan Edwards
>Ahmad
Checks out.
Colton Bell
she's a little more likeable in game than the marketing stuff suggests. but i agree they clearly fucked up her jaw on purpose
David Jenkins
I knew nothing about this game or even heard of it until reviews came out.
Colton Smith
I rented this for PS4. The storytelling is a mess, not as weird or memorable as it should be, but the gameplay would compensate for that if it ran well. It seriously drops to a single digit framerate on my base console. I wish it would've expanded on the Metroidvania elements, for the most part I had a good time. The gameplay is simple yet satisfying. I appreciated the commitment to make it at least somewhat challenging by not having regenerating health, even though you can cheese many enemies/bosses with telekinesis throws.
Ryder Campbell
What were they thinking?
David Torres
>and shitty marketing campaign to only let women play early is what killed it mostly
I mean, it worked for Wonder Woman and Yea Forums actually thinks that movie is good.
Cooper Hill
But Yea Forums said that Control was the game of the decade, did they lie?
Gavin Jackson
Makes sense, the PS4 port is bad.
Anthony Russell
DC didn't have a direct hand in that though, least not a visible one.
Jackson Campbell
You're just trading one kind of cancer for another. That doesn't sound any better at all.
Robert Garcia
Yeah, Geralt should be a skinny fat neckbeard with glasses and a bird chest instead, that would be way better for a trained killer mutant based on established lore.
You fucking retard.
Henry Edwards
You are super funny. Do you have a YouTube channel I can subscribe to?
Jackson Johnson
>Shit reasoning like this is why we get Witcher 3 where Geralt looks like some nerd's fantasy of what he wishes he could be.
... what exactly do you think Geralt should look like?
Sebastian Diaz
That's just part of Muslim culture, you bigot.
Caleb Robinson
>daniel ahmad
>is a muslim
>but also a massive china shill and proud of it
Should someone finally tell him about the Uyghur deathcamps?
Luke Scott
wasn't Geralt supposed to be sort of ugly in the books ? In the first two Witchers he also looks kind of homely. Maybe that's what he's talking about
Leo Powell
>Yea Forums actually thinks that movie is good.
If by "good" you mean "thank god it's not the usual DC fuckup" then sure.
Matthew King
>big universally known franchise being successful actually means shit
Jonathan Smith
>My buddy and I played through control
It's co-op?
Thomas Watson
She is actually pretty ugly irl too, I mean she isn't deformed or anything and her skin is healthy looking but her facial structure is garbo for a video game protagonist. Normal people don't belong in vidya, that's why I hate facescan so much.
Dylan Flores
Anyone who grew up in an era before 2010 knows Wonder Woman has always been a staple market of old-fashion feminism and not the hyper-aggressive feminism we have today so this is expected. Besides it's a screening, who cares?
Joshua Reyes
Control looks worse than Quantum Break which was the worst game i've ever played. The controls still stress me out thinking about them. Horrible slow underwater jelly bullshit.
James Garcia
It's such a damn shame Remedy has completely lost their own identity after Alan Wake (or arguably even MP2) and never recovered. Now they are just that faceless studio producing the blandest TPS on the market. This time with unwashed vagina flavour of SJW shit too.
Nathan Diaz
Some people fit well into games. For Jesse its like they made her face doughier to nerf the actor's features to make her look more like a "normal woman".
Noah Cook
Let it fall into even more obscurity
Liam Rivera
Control is a better TPS than Max Payne 3
Jackson Ramirez
>ugly protagonist
>misogynistic and questionable marketing
>trying to cater to a group of people who dont play vidya
Geez how could this have happen?
Caleb Allen
No, he's not ugly, half the sorceresses in the books want to fuck him and he's considered extremely well educated and charming for a Witcher.
Jace Jenkins
>27th of August
uh guys it only had like 4 days
Josiah Jones
Why would a janitor be pretty?
Ryder Watson
ugly female protagonist and feminist propaganda story
