Seriously what the fuck is that shit? Are they trying to say people had fades and zoomer haircuts 400 years before the invention of hair clippers?

Am I biased and have a strange perception of history, or did games really have a separate subculture and identity around it 15 years ago? Now it's been completely subsumed and merged into the major culture if that time was real. Sure, games were popular then but never to this degree. Same thing with anime. Sometimes I feel this sense of pride and superiority because it's like "I was here first, I've been doing this longer than some other people, so therefore I'm more actual than them when it comes to gaming" or something. Sometimes it's less about a superiority and more like having an in group, an identity, a people I belong to. Everybody wants that, right? I just chose gaming as my group I belong to, and I'm really attached to that. But the thing is if the group has everyone in it, then the concept of the identity disappears. It's hard to explain.

It makes me resentful that one Tumblr post that said that gamer should never have been an identity in the first place, like an outsider who identifies as one personally attacking me.

Everybody's against gamers. Not saying that self identified gamers are oppressed, but serious, we're like the laughing stock of the entire internet.

>Absolutely, gaming used to be a very nerdy thing until those "cinematic" AAA games came along. Games weren't taken seriously until they became like movies, ironic.
I wouldnt put it there, think it was the rise of gta 3 and halo and other bro games, and the aging of the audience into college.

>>41249
I think it had mainstream appeal before then. My normie unc who loves playing sports gave me his old PS1 with his games when I was a kid and his game library was mostly composed of racing games (F1, Ridge Racer) and sports games (FIFA, Tony Hawk, some snowboarding game).

>>40665
This is something I realized when I was in school. Nearly all the guys played video games but it was mainly stuff like GTA or CoD when we talked. Same with anime. Trying to talk to people about anything that wasn't airing on toonami or was super popular online was a crapshoot. Nowadays if someone asks me if I play games I just say something like "I usually just play tetris while listening to a podcast" which isn't a lie.

The absolute worst thing about gaming being so mainstream is having the hear random people's video game shit takes in public.

Apply the dialectic.
Smart phones rise in popularity around 2012.
The majority of internet traffic is from smart phones now.
Everyone carries a computer in their pocket.
That computer has access to App Store games.
That computer connects to the consolidating social media platforms and nothing else.
Culture becomes both increasingly isolating and homogenized.
Corporations realize nerd shit is profitable.
Corporations realize nerd shit is identity through consumption.
Corporations normalize liking nerd shit.
Corporations like selling intellectual property that requires no manufacture.
Nerd shit is no longer nerd shit.
Nerd shit now is the culture.
Everyone knows iron man.
Everyone knows Minecraft.

Remember when game developers would make game worlds feel large by adding multiple entrances, exits, pathways, and secret rooms to their levels while forcing the player to move through all that space rather than just literally making the in game maps larger and add fast travel? I miss that era…
4 posts omitted.

shmups are all awful

Design a lock and key open-world map right fucking now

You don't need to make the game "feel larger" just make the space that exists INTERESTING. One of the worst things about the open world trend has been how boring and samey everything is. Like yeah it's cool in theory that I can choose where I go and how instead of being restricted to a linear or branching set of rooms, but it's fucking boring if there's no shit to do on the way.

yeah, fast travel that isn't built into the game mechanics and lore is pretty lazy design

A lot of indies still do this. Don't really know what's up with the AAA scene that's turned it into rollercoasters.

As someone who never played or watched any Danganronpa content, I wonder what is the reason behind that it made you uncomfortable and some people dont want to see it

Please recommend me some single player first person shooters on PC with character progression or RPG elements.

I just beat Robocop Rogue City and I want more. I have Game Pass if that helps at all.

Also games that have iron sights please I want to use Gyro controls.

If you for some forsaken reason haven't played the originals DOOM 1 & 2 please do. They're RPGs

>>41431

You're trippin

>>41423
>character progression
Might fall into what you're looking for though it has 0 rpg elements. Try bright memory infinite (theres a game called bright memory, but thats just a somewhat interesting to play techdemo. Infinite is the real game)

You basicly get skillpoints you can use to learn abilitys and thats it

Dark Messiah
Ghostrunner

Fallout New Vegas and 4 have iron sights and RPG elements
3 is only iron sights for some of the guns

I was getting tired of roguelikes but I'm glad I gave Balatro a chance, now I'm obsessed with 100%ing it. Too bad its success opened the floodgates for lazy devs to pump out low-effort, card-based roguelikes with slapped-together aesthetics and shallow mechanics, all hoping to cash in on the same momentum.

It's crazy that balatro got flagged as a gambling game while gacha and other predatory shit is still targeting kids who don't know any better.

If you like Balatro you should try Shotgun King which is a roguelite take on Chess.

Why don't chuds just stop consuming shitty mass produced culture? They only play AAA videogames and watch capeshit and then complain about how woke and DEI it is.

Why not play indie videogames and watch art films instead where the creators have total creative freedom?

They want games that they dont like to not exist. If a 'woke' game is released to them it is harming them.

>>41576
It's like the asmongold logic where if you're pro-anyone who isn't white straight and male, you're actively anti-white straight male.

>>41563
>They'll complain about Japanese devs pandering to the west, but then none of them played Kunitsu-Gami.
Because when they say "pandering to the west", they only mean nonwhite(black brown and asian in a way they don't find hot) and gay stuff(they start fighting each other over whether or not yuri and yaoi are woke enough, because one side is "well I'm okay with gay shit if it's not in my face bro" and the other side just openly hates gay people).
It's always cringe when western chauvinist types suddenly start fucking yapping about cultural relativism and western cultural imperialism, but only when it's their weeb shit and only if there's "woke" that wasp probably in their favorite game they played when they were 12

I also like when they talk about superior Japanese games, and they choose fucking coomer gacha with no fucking gameplay and tons of manipulation to make you gamble for more jpegs.
Do these guys really like games?

Eviscerated for what? B team doing a spinoff product? Although it's clear to me that they've added the Elden Ring part just for marketing purposes

File: 1734331774238.png (504.22 KB, 590x661, crkihs.png)

>>38655
It's not just for marketing purposes. It also saves a shit ton of money reusing assets, and in exchange the game isn't full price.
It's not that far off from the meme.

>>38656
I meant that they were making a "Nightreign" game that was a fromsoftware soulslike multiverse PVE battle royale kind of a game, but then slapped on the Elden Ring name for better sales

>>38656

honestly, nightrein (and duskbloods) looks like a big experiment about multiplayer (and new movement mechanics) in souls games rather than just a cash grab, and besides microtransactions would be way worse so pick your poision

fromsoft fanboys shitting on nightrein have NO IDEA how bad it can get

Having one cashgrab multiplayer game is annoying but tolerable, having TWO in a row is dumb as fuck and is tarnishing the Fromsoft brand.

Jak 2 is basically lefty/pol/ The Game. Not in terms of its literal politics, but in spirit.

In fact, I'd probably count this as the best depicted revolution in video games. The edginess, the slow times, the fast and dangerous times, but above the slow grind until Baron Praxis is overthrown.

have you ever played any western open world game of the last 10 years?
if so you already know exactly what the gane plays like

>>40827
I like that cute animal

the last AC games i tried were origins and syndicate, thought they were awful and dropped them fast, but shadows looks kinda fun, but it has denuvo so i won't play it until 6 years later when it goes on sale for 70% off.

>>41499
All you need to know about shadows is already present in this video about mirage

Ubisoft definitely listened to criticism about AC not being about assassins anymore, but they stopped caring about making the best games they could a while ago.
