Everybody's always talking about the worst fanbase on /v/. What's the best fanbase?
Xbots. They have the least presence on /v/ so they win by default.
>>275819425
Metroid fans. They used to be pretty bad when they argued 24/7 about "superfags vs primefags" but most of that seems to have stopped.
the dankey kang fanbase.
Often the ones that are rarely mentioned or talked about.
>>275819598
Yeah because all they do now is look at lewd pictures of zero suit samus. Literally no discussion about games anymore. Yeah what a shitty example. You are most likely one of them.
Metal gear. Every thread is just filled with bros who don't take it too seriously.
>>275819598
To add, I think it helps that they're all unified by a common opinion: Other M sucks. It's so bad that shit posters can't even start a fight about it like Brawl with Smash fans.
>>275819720
Not really. Now that its on PC there is non stop console vs pc wars in every MGS thread. You must be new.
ive been in 60% of the fanbases and I can conclude that fighting game enthusiasts have been the most comforting, althrough abrasive, comforting
Old school FPS fans are pretty great
>>275819425
>Everybody's always talking about the worst fanbase on /v/.
Every fanbase on /v/ is shit, the best fanbases are on /vg/ they are circlejerking to their games and their waifus and don't piss other people off.
>>275819713
There's always that stray shitposter that posts that one comic about Samus shitting and pissing herself, but other than that, they usually keep to themselves and talk about what they want in the new games.
>>275819819
How would that imply I'm new? Before the PC version was announced we had alot of good threads and we still do, just don't go in the platform threads.
>>275819918
Doom fans are bros.
I would say Doom fanbase, but there's a lot of debate on whether or not brutal doom is good or not.
>>275820047
Until someone mention brutal doom then everyone starts flinging shit.
Easily, Fallout (read:No Mutants Allowed mesaage board)
Ever since the weekend web about them, esp that one post that is (sometimes) still used as a meme here...
... My gos... I just want to strangle that one smug self satisfied bastard
I always like Thief threads. Little shitposting, even after Thi4f, just nice talk about great games and their fan missions, and the Dark Mod. I don't care who's the best or worse fanbase but that jumped to mind.
Team Ico fanbase is pretty chill
>>275819425
dragon's dogma
friendliest fanbase, friendliest generals
souls games before pc cocklickers infested the game.
Galaxy Angel
Cause we barely exist
>>275819819
but both sides of that argument are just trolls who never even played an MGS game, the actual metal gear threads ignore the troll posts.
anyone who takes playing video games seriously all the time
looking at you, that one smash tourney friend of mine who treated every match like the end of bloodsport
Rebirth fanbase is pretty good
Easily best generals

>>275819819
>implying those replies are from people that play MGS
Please, you must be new. MGS has been on PC before with MGS1 and MGS2.
And with MGS2 there were a shitfuck of discussions about politics, philosophy and ethics.
So how is PC to blame now when before there never was any problem?
It's just shitposters. And considering that MGSV is for all systems, 5 systems, except one, I think it's easy to guess what kind of fanbase is behind the shitposting and trolling.
>>275820691
well when i was in the heat of it shitposting was very high but it wasn't very good shitposting, just things like site revamps and whatever
but everyone is definitely very amicable, maybe not the most personable community but no one from the fgc i know has been bellicose
>>275820568
I have to agree, I haven't seen a DD thread that had people shitposting yet.
>>275819425
Doom
Metal Gear fanbase.
Or, at least, used to be. Now every thread is filled is fucking retards who won't stop talking about Console/PC war horseshit.
I want all of them to burn in an inferno.

Wut?
I'd say flight sim fans are pretty up there. You know the ones. Like middle aged guys who build 747 cockpits in their basement. The only bad thing I can say about them, is some of them seem to think playing MS Flight Simulator makes them just as qualified as real pilots, as if their in-game flight hours mean jack shit, but it's far less cringey than Kingdom Hearts fanfic, I suppose.
>>275820990
reminder that /vg/ isn't 4chan
Kingdom Hearts fanbase :^)
I've been with a few of them at anime conventions and they're all pretty friendly.
>>275821129
Why.
What's the difference whether or not the fucktards are "the true fanbase" or not. What matters is that they shit up the threads.

I haven't had any issues with the metroidvania fans, but that's because they're really timid

Hey, Starfox threads are pretty neat. The threads about the 3D Mario games like Sunshine/Galaxy/64/etc are pretty good as well.
2D mario and zelda are shit threads, but that's just by virtue of being too goddamn big for their own good.
>Welp, you have a point. Why are smash autists so fucking annoying?
Don't know. But god help them.
>>275822810
Do you even know how many Nintendo properties there are?
If you haven't noticed the fanbase, then that already makes them better than most fanbases on /v/.
>>275823219

Not really what I meant by "2D mario". I'm talking about 1/2/3/World/NEW/etc.
They're always the worst. No actual discussion. Just a bunch of people talking about how terrible they are because they had a goddamn genesis or whatever.
>>275822575
SRPG fans are pretty top tier in my estimation. It's not as common on /v/ anymore, but no other genre base break console lines as much. Those fuckers recommend every good game under the sun, regardless of platform, and that's a badge of honor in this shitheap.
>>275823665
Shoot em up and beat em up fans might fall under this banner too.
>>275823303
>Starfox threads are pretty neat
The earliest I remember was a mix of meme-esque linequoting and discussion of the best stages of Star Fox 64.
Then it was Krystal hate threads.
Mind you, there was always sprinkles of porn involved in both.
Then it was FemFox threads.
And now it's just flat-out furshit threads.
>>275822575
metroid threads are usually good until someone shitposts with porn or hating on the games.
>>275823870
Metroid threads will never be about the lore so far as the games are concerned.
People just dump the comics.
>all these nintendo babbies nominating their own circlejerks acting like they're the cream of the crop
at least other consolefags aren't as full of themselves
the best fanbase is non-console players who love genres barring those "invented" in the last 5 years ala LoL
>>275819425
Late night Zelda threads continue to be the best thing on /v/ just like they always have been.
>>275823665
Agreed. Guess I just didn't think of 'em. Hard to name everyone.
>>275823764
Beat em up? Sure. Shoot em up? EHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. They're nice, but bizarre. Maybe just not for me. I dunno.
>>275823769
I can't speak for your experience, but I've been in super solid Star Fox threads with basically no shitposting or porn, aside from maybe one or two beefcake pictures.

>>275824332
I just think Shmups fall into the same category as the other 2 I mentioned, in that they aren't preoccupied with console wars. Definitely an odd bunch, but I probably only think that because I can't for the life of me get into a shmup. They just aren't fun to me.
>>275823303
>Starfox threads are pretty neat
All the SF threads i've seen are filled to the brim with furry porn dumping
Sometimes people propose "what could nintendo do for the next Starfox game", and those times are neat, but the furfaggotry is just too much
>The threads about the 3D Mario games like Sunshine/Galaxy/64/etc are pretty good as well.
I'll give you that, people are generally chill, with some occasions of "my 3D mario is harder than your 3D mario", but they're mostly chill

The only good fanbase left on /v/ is the few remaining scraps of the anti-Xbox fanbase. The rest of /v/ is so enamored with MCC and Sunset Overdrive that it's extremely refreshing to see a few people left who aren't Microshills.

/vr/ is basically oldfags that are always on topic. /vr/-tan's radical bro demeanor really is an accurate projection of its users. It's more or less a utopian version of /v/, except that it is kind of slow. When it started out it was a bit raucous with people arguing about what was or wasn't /vr/, but now it is settled down. That's not to say it doesn't have bitching about emulators and CRTs and whatnot, but it's not the kind of zero-quality shitposting you'd see here.

Smash fans.
Unbelievably nitpicky, and flip the fuck out if you call their games "party games"
Melee, Brawl, Other M, Smash 4. It's all the same fucking game. Yet they'll sperg the hell out and go on and on about how minor changes, make the games drastically different.
They're the most insecure fanbase too. I consider the games to be party games. The fanbase somehow perceives this as insulting because it diminish's the quality/credibility of their tournament scene....which is ridiculous. It's a game made for children. Who cares what genre it is as long as you're having fun?
Pokemon is a close second, but only because of Smogon. They ban everything they can't figure out how to counter, and everyone uses the same copypasta teams, thanks to this.
I love both smash and pokemon, but they're games made for children. The notion of having "tier lists" in a kids game is absurd. Just acknowledge you're manchildren, stop overthinking things, and enjoy your fucking video games.
Nintendo. Really, amiibos? Like, fucking really?
Also, pretty much everyone in the FFXIV and GW2 general... Fucking Christ.
