>if your frustrated stop playing!

>>319586516
Is there a single legit comeback for these, though?
>>319586589
>You have to play it for 10 hours before it gets good!
>it's not for you! Stop complaining!
>this kind of game isn't for me, why do they keep making these?
>>319586860
free speech?
>its a beta there will be bugs. its like you people have never been in a beta before
>>319586860
"fuck you"
>"You have to actually play it to make judgements!"
baka
>it's 3 so you can't complain
>>319586860
For the free one, you can say it cost you your time. You can always get more money, but you can't get more time.
>>319586860
Criticism isn't towards an objective end, it's all relative in every iteration. You can complain about wealth inequality despite the fact that you aren't starving. "It's free so you can't complain" doesn't discredit the statement "it would be better if [x]".
>>319586342
Well, you can't but what's the point? You gave nothing, you lose nothing. Why acting like you deserve something when you gave nothing in return?
>>319587720
Not entirely true. See >>319587559
You gave your time to the game, and if it was awful, you're not getting that time back. You can always get your money back one way or another, but time is lost forever.
>>319586589
>You can't criticize the game if you never played it
>You only played the beginning, you can only criticize once you beat it
>if you beat the whole game, then why are criticizing it? You must of enjoyed it if you finished it.
Fuckingundertalefags
>>319587636
it's more like getting 5000 bucks each month from your parents without working and then complaining it isn't enough
>>319587559
>he doesnt know how to get more time
Fucking loser, have fun wasting your minutes!
>>319586342
>Developers take and copyright an idea/ideas that could have been incredible
>Devs make it free
>Devs make it shitty
>No chance of a GOOD game with the same mechanics/ideas
It's actually this reason that I don't like quite a few indie games, like superhot, the game is kickass, but cut way too short and now there's no real chance of a legit game (with legit length and content) using that mechanic
>>319587559
It also takes time to complain about the game
>>319587947
>not having eternal life
you people really need to join the reptilian new world order.
>The glitches are what make the game fun.
>>319587373
i like this one
>>319588556
Skate 2 is a top notch game for it's glitches, the fuck are you talking about?
>it was made by one guy/a whole team, this somehow affects my review of the game
>it was expensive/cheap/free, this somehow affects my review of the game
What's up with so many idiots including non-factors in their reviews these days?
>Thing is horribly overpriced
>You can theoretically get it for free via an absolutely retarded amount of playtime, to the point where it's basically impossible
>Why are you complaining? Are you just a casual?
>>319586342
I don't get this either. If you shit on someone's plate and gave it to them for free, does that mean they can't complain since it's free food?
>>319586860
You don't need a legit comeback for it, because it's a bullshit statement to begin with.
>>319588858
By definition shit isn't food though, it's body waste. Sure you can eat it, but you can eat a lot of things that wouldn't be classified as food.
>>319589047
Sounds like the average free game.

When was the last time you had fun anon?
>>319588686
He's talking about when a game has game breaking bugs that causes portions of the game to be become inaccessible despite the player playing the game the way it was intended.
>it was good for its time!
>its time is long gone
>>319588858
>eating shit analogy

>>319586860
Responding to statements like these is a strange game, anon. The only winning move is not to play.
>>319586860
>it's not free
In response to hearthstone/heroes of the storm
>>319586860
>But if I don't complain your mom will keep using too much teeth
Second one sounds like you're just bad. No real comeback for that.

Stupid shit I'm glad is dying off on /v/
>the complaint is that game is free
>the complaint is that early access game is not finished after a year
>the complaint is that software has rare problem, when in fact it's a hardware problem
>the complaint is that the community makes you so mad that you forget about mute button

>>319591720
>pirating free flash games
>If you dont like this game, make it yourself!
>If you dont like this book, write it yourself!
>If you dont like this food, cook it yourself!
What do you call this line of fallacy?
>>319586860
for anything involving some variation of "u mad?", just say "ayy lmao". it makes light of their accusation and also makes you feel better anyway because ayy lmao
>>319586860
Free shit is still shit.
>>319591337
But Blizzard and Bethesda drones actually exist, they ignore all problems and dismiss all criticism as "trolling" or being contrarian, while buying any old garbage the publisher shits out regardless of quality.
>>319591905
>If you dont like this food, cook it yourself!
This is true, though.
>>319592162
I hope by criticism you mean "This I what's bad and this is what's good" and not "0/10 shit reddit game hate newspapers"
>game is in early access of course it's going to have problems and bugs
>>319592625
This isn't wrong.
>>319592373
You miss what happened with Fallout? A reviewer said he enjoyed the game but it was plagued with technical issues, which is true, he gave it 6/10 on consoles because it ran like ass, 7/10 on PC and the fanbase completely chimped out.
>>319592625
The fuck do you expect?
>>319592625
I don't think you know what alpha means. AAA "alpha" is not an alpha, it's a demo. Most f the time the game is featur complete by the time AAA devs release an alpha.
>>319592743
>>319592797
>game leaves EA
>nothing is fixed
>>319588273
Game mechanics(and broad 'ideas' in general) aren't covered by copyrights.
>>319592625
That makes sense though.
>>319592947
That's different.
>>319592743
>>319592797
>>319593064
The entire point of an alpha is to bring up the bugs so they get fixed, minimizing them is totally counter-intuitive.
>>319592926
Did you quote the right person?
>>319592786
Well if we cound reviewers, then usually 6-7 is considered "good", just good not amazing/perfect good. I'm thinking of /v/ where everything is called unplayable shit, when in fact it's just playable mediocre game that could be better.
>>319593401
Early Access is generally pre-alpha and alpha stage, beta stage is when they fix bugs, alpha is for adding feature.
There's not much point in fixing something when the next thing you add can break it again.
>>319588009
as somewhat of anundertalefagi completely agree with what you are implying.even though its not nearly as bad as /v/ say its is
>>319587947
Your time clearly isn't worth much if you're wasting it on 4chan
>>319593505
>6-7 is considered "good",
Not to a fanboy, anything less than 8 is an insult and "wrong".
>>319588858
>i literally can't make an analogy that isn't about feces!
>>319593578
Terms like Early Access, pre-alpha, alpha and beta have been used interchangeably so often I can't keep track of this shit anymore.
>>319586860
They're fallacies so not really.
Well I guess you can call them out for being idiots.
Here's my favorite
>If you think that's bad then why don't you make your own X.
>>319591337
I hope it never goes away actually. Turmoil and video game discussion go together really well.
Plus I act like a tin hat in regards to marketers.
>>319591337
>>_______drone
This has been a thing since 2008, it's not going away any time soon.
>>319594148
Early Access is a colloquial term for pre-release, pre-alpha is the engine and basic gameplay mechanic development stage, alpha is the feature development stage with more fine tuning to the gameplay, beta is the stability and polish stage.
>>319587373
you mad bro?
>>319587373
Fuck you, leatherman.
every greentexted statement in this thread is a valid point
