in 2015, watching people play is now more important than playing.

Jesus fucking christ..

This is our fault. Everyone who had a little brother or sister and made them watch us play instead of letting them play themselves.

This is all my fault. I'm so sorry, guys... so very sorry.

Yeah, it's so dull it makes you feel like you aren't even a human being anymore.

This is not neccessarily false. For games that are not mechanically demanding (most of them) you can discern how they improve or devolve the formula. I have not played Bloodborne but I know enough about its mechanics and level design to be able to discuss it on those merits.

DMC 4 would be a slightly different method because you should at least try to do a basic frame cancel in order to know what you're talking about. Video games are a simplistic medium for the most part and understanding mechanics and technical terms is more important than playing the game itself. I bet 99 percent of /v/ couldn't explain what anti aliasing is, how tesselation affects performance or why did low poly trend come into vogue and then died off.

There's nothing wrong in watching other people play a game you wouldn't bother apart from several hours of gameplay. You should be able to discern what the devs were going for if you were not brain dead.

>rave party heavely mixed with the floating islands from Avatar

He's better at prose than most of /v/ though. Props where props are due. And he put more effort into an explanation than most of memelords you can find here. Wish more anons were like him. Even if I disagree, I think Xenoblade games are pretty shitty and the world design is the only redeeming factor.

Then it fucks it up with repeated enemies of the ass and a stupid background story that relies on a lot of coincidences to work.

Literally who?

>>319439242

...more...more important than playing?

why the shit should I trust the opinion of someone who watches video games?

watching people play video games is the most beta thing that you can do.

>>319444430
Borderlands 1 did a great job of showing an alien world with post-apocalyptic themes when the game wasn't even post-apoc. Borderlands 2 had more Earthly themes and atmospheres.

>hear game is bad

Sounds pretty alpha to me.

>>319448812
Which is why most people prefer Borderlands 1 over 2.

>>319449318
I do that too but I don't sit through an entire fucking sitting hearing commentary. I watch review gameplay and Steam broadcast streams. I don't make excuses so I can watch PewDiePie like you do, faggot.

It's a problem when your first thought of Borderlands is BL2. You have to be 18 to browse this board.

BL1 was boring as fuck and had worse gameplay than 2 though.
At least BL2 made me chuckle a couple times.
