Yeah, some pics of DS look amazing, and others…not so much. 

Only area it struggles is character models particularly faces

But top tier in other metrics

If MS ruins Bethesda in any way, I will find Phil Sphincter and skin him alive.

Not like they can ruin trash

I want it to fail so Phil Spencer gets fired

Banger episode

WiiU is the worst console of all time. So bad people forget it even existed

At least Phil is honest there

They probably sold Bungie to MS originally for like a million dollars

Smartest thing their ownership did was get their ownership back and then sell themselves for 100x that years later

That wasn't input lag, that was intentional. That's the "weighty" feel I was talking about.

Yeah it was input lag, they intentionally programmed that in I assume. It was like 300ms input lag on the aim from memory

Because they're all hacks who are more influenced by trendy content among 'gamers' than the actual content of the games they review. They're giving out the scores that feels appropriate at the time without any intelligent insight. 

 

And let's not forget, they all thought it was a better game than Bloodborne as proven by the number of GOTYs but now they're all sucking FromSoft dick because it's finally cool and popular. 

Facts. Reviewers chase trends

Open world = OMFG so amazing 

It's a good game but the combat is so bad I don't get how reviewers were handing out 10s

KZ2, if only it played as good as it looked. The gunplay in that game was awful, I hated that "weighty" feel it was going for.

I remember the gunplay being quite good. Great weapon feel and sound, good feedback, enemy animations when you shot them are still good to this day

But they undermined all that cause of the input lag which was beyond ridiculous

Elden ring had essentially no story that I could tell. The only cool part story wise was 

  Reveal hidden contents

The tree burning

 

a great story is absolutely a good thing, but a bad story doesn’t hurt a game in anyway imo. It takes two was a dumb story but the gameplay is what carried it to GOTY. Same with Elden Ring. 

Elden Ring has some of the deepest lore and world building around. It may not surface in long cutscenes but the effort they put into the backstories and lore is found all throughout the descriptions and hidden conversations. Having all that work put into the lore is what makes their worlds feel so well realised. It's the biggest difference between From Software and the million clones out there

That's my opinion on the last few GOW, decent at best. 

 

Im not saying the Spiderman games aren't great, but it feels like the Batman games with a Spiderman skin.. Down to the steath skills, the combat, side missions etc. 

 

How's the story in rocket league? How many years have you been replaying that?

 

Did you read what I said cleary? I didn't say story doesn't matter.... I said it does matter.. Just that gameplay matters more. 

 

No matter how great the story is, if the gameplay is broken... The game is trash. 

I like Arkham more but the reason I like it more is the world building, story, art and characters are done better. The actual core mechanics of Spiderman are much better - it has better combat, a better upgrade system, better traversal mechanics. It's actually a great example of how elements of story are the thing that differentiates the good from great

I agree a game with poor gameplay is still going to be a lesser experience - eg I cant stomach RDR2. But when we are talking the best of gaming it is often that the gameplay is great already.

For me you can't have a truly great single player game if you don't get story right. If you just nail the gameplay you will cap out at a 9/10. But if you deliver the story as well then we start to get the 10/10 games that stick with me forever. 

And it's not an uncommon sentiment. If gameplay was all people were looking for then TLOU2 would never have been divisive.

And as much as I love Rocket League it is a multiplayer game, it's not one that can fundamentally impact me emotionally like a well done story game can.

GOW peaked at 2 and the rest have been average at best. If it wasn't called  GOW and Ragnarok was an Xbox game it would scored  a 7 at best. 

 

Story in games are important, for the first play through... After that if the gameplay isn't great the second play through ends up being trash... Or doesn't happen at all....You then realize that gameplay is king and much more important than story because it's the gameplay that will keep you continually revisiting a classic game .. Not the story. 

 

The Sony Spiderman games are re-skinned Rocksteady Batman games just not nearly as good as said batman games. 

 

GOW gameplay is phenomenal. You are talking nonsense.

Spiderman games have stronger gameplay than the Arkham games but weaker story

Story matters because it elevates the experience to a level that games with bad stories never reach. And that includes elements like strong world building.

Replayability is irrelevent. I will take a 10/10 first play through over an 8/10 game with replayability

Story in games is the least meaningful quality of a game and the idea of playing a game for its story is retarded.

We actually toyed with that idea like 15 years ago… it actually makes more sense, ya know.. Sony pony…

It's lame though

Cows cause Sony milk the cows

Lemmings cause they are green and will follow MS off a cliff

Sheep cause they follow Nintendo blindly who constantly own them

Hermits cause they are stink ass losers with no friends

All of that still works 15 years later

I noticed the twitter fanboy circles started using animal names too, but cows are called Pony's

I swear the new generation of fanboys are uncreative as hell

I dont have a backlog

If I dont finish a game it's unlikely I'll go back and finish it later

That was me 

Remember when this dude was the crazy mfer in Hollywood

Now he seems positively tame in comparison
