So 2015 was a year of Quantity Over Quality open world games? What's up with developers thinking that huge games with no depth and shitty gameplay are worth playing in this day and age?
I can't wait for this open-world fad to end. It has done nothing but make every series that jumped on it worse.

you might not like the game but at least it put in a little more effort than MGS did

thread isn't abuot open world. He's just mad 2015 had many games he dislike so they are all "shit", as opposed as bloodborne being the only game he got, so it's "good".
>>319634513
What makes me mad is that the same effort to make a "gigantic" open world with nothing can be put in making even a REALLY small area with lots of things to do. Why ruin your game?
>>319635378
>JC3
>What's up with developers thinking etc.
The JC3 devs were thinking "We have a solid community and audience with JC2, we'll create another game like that but better." and they did.
What else do you want them to do?
Not that the game is perfect mind you.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but no mater how shitty FO4 is, controls there are leaps and bounds better than Batmaner 3.
>>319637134
>implying
The gunplay is still shit
The melee has always been shit in Bethesda games, and that will likely never change
The game has shit for custiomization or builds.
No matter how unremarkable W3's gameplay is, it's still better than Fallout 4's.

Just like The Witcher games.

He's a sonykek
Notice when you see threads hating on 2015 games it's always mainly on the witcher 3 and they leave out shitborne
Seriously just look at it next time and call the sonykek out on it and watch him implode all over the thread
Likely salt since it got jack shit for awards
>>319638675
>they leave out shitborne
Because it's not open world retard.
>>319634746

That's what they said about FPS, and over a decade later bland triple-A military shooters still going strong.
I agree with you though. It raises development costs exponentially for basically zero benefit.
Time and time again I see devs touting the size of their open-world maps, only to release their game to lukewarm reception; then all I can think is, "and how much better would the game have been if you spent that cost of modeling all that shit on proper writers and gameplay designers".
Fallout 4 is perhaps the best example. The narrative is a trainwreck, the engine is a relic and the world isn't even that big.
>>319634513
>Fallout 4
>huge world
Is this a joke?
Witcher 3 had quality as well. Not all of it, there was filler content in there and it really didn't need to be open world, but a lot of it was just as well-done as previous Witcher games.
I would like the focus on open-world games from AAA developers to die off though, it almost always comes at the expense of detail and polish. Even though I liked TW3 a lot some of the content was clearly just there to tick the "open world" boxes, especially those repetitive and useless points of interest.
>>319636449
You can but the janitors and moderators wont do shit. And if you try to actively report threads like this you get 72 hours for report function abuse.
I wish Gookmoot would get rid of every one in an administration position on this site and open up applications sitewide.

I understand that games like XCX are never that popular but you don't have to make shitty excuses.
>>319639229
>xenofag coming to the defense of his shitty jrpg
Don't you have censorship to cry over?
can't wait for a good JRPG desu
It's just the new way lazy people to do games right now, like the "uninspired platformers" from the 3rd and 4th gen, the "shitty controled action games" from the 5th and 6th and the "generic shooters" from the 7th, the "oooooh, look at how big our map is, even if there is not enough in it to justify the size of it" plague started in the late life of the 7th gen and will last all the way through the 8th, until we find a new easily copy-pasted format to make a game.

That's where you should stay with your single player MMO trash.

>two short comments basically outlining how it's WoW for weebs
So deep.
Come back when Monolith Soft creates a game on par with Morrowind in mechanics and worldbuilding.
Are some people really trying to say a weeb trash like Xenoblade is close enough to GOTY 2015 Witcher 3? How many copies did your weaboo-simulator sold? 1000?
Shit graphics, weebs, shit story, weebs, cringe dialogues, weebs, CONSOLE kek.

I'll admit it, I like XCX.
But that doesn't mean people have to agree with me.
the game is 720p and runs 30fps.
Draw distance is terrible
Gameplay is complicated and tutorials are very simple.
Gathering quests are nearly impossible if you don't already have the materials needed.
Items in your inventory have a minimum level requirement.
The censorship you pointed out
There are a lot of flaws with XCX, depth is not one of them.
>>319639573
>Crap, I have nothing to say, better call his website shit and tell him to stay there.
you sure proved me wrong, pal.
Also, I find the game to be way better offline.
You two misunderstand me, I'm not going around saying its GOTY or that it's the perfect game, I'm just saying OP's a fucking faggot.
I can't tell whether Witcherfags are actually this obnoxious/retarded or whether this is just an extended falseflagging attempt from shitposters. Probably the latter but it gets hard to tell with /v/.
And I say that as someone who loved TW3 and has no interest in XCX because I didn't like Xenoblade.

Don't bother arguing about Fo4 or Witcher 3, when Witcher 3 has already won 2015 goty award and is overall a superior game than Fallout 4.
As someone who enjoyed both games, Witcher 3 surpassed Fallout 4 in every aspect except for exploration/fun combat.
Let me understand this
Do you prefer games like the new tomb raider (all corridors) than the witcher 3 or Just cause 3?

That's just sad. Like watching a fat overweight 40yo guy wearing a marathon medal he won in middle school.

Enjoying your free DLC? :^)
>defending these open-meme games
Why? Ok let's pretend TW3 has at least a few interesting quests and some detail in the world but nearly every single one of these games would have benefitted from a focused linear world design and got nothing out of being open-world.
>>319638159
>combat is shit
It's miles better than W3's shitty butchered Arkham combat.
>>319640795
>he says after From just started selling BB DLC

>>319640795
not him but yes, I'm enjoying the free 16 DLCs that they gave us and the paid expansion pack that's better than the whole story of your trash game ;)
skyrim was such a success that every other game basically tried to do open world
most of the games that came out this year if they came out individually over a few years probably would've been better received but there's so many of them that it's just over saturated
open world just isn't done right very often
to me the best 'open worlder' example i can think of is gta san andreas, the way they sent you to each portion of the map and had different story and feel to each section was awesome, and by the time you got back to the first area you felt like you had enjoyed that world
gta 4 did the same just with the multiple islands, but yeah
it's one thing to make a big world, it's another to actually have it have a purpose, i don't think games like mgs v, witcher, fall out 4 and games like farcry and skyrim handled open world well
they just like.. put you on a big map and saying how big it is but there's really no reason for half of it, it's just a waste of time getting from spot to spot
>>319640995
>B-BUT SONYPONIES
lol, that's a pretty pathetic strawman.
>>319635694
I agree anon
>>319640913
where did this meme come from?
I didn't really care for TW3, I played it for a few hours, but the combat is not like Bamham or Assindickfag.
In those games your character kind of locks to targets and will snap to their location from almost any distance.
Like in Batman you press the button from further away and he still attacks the thug just the same, only he bounds over to do it.
This didn't happen for me at all in TW3, each attack had a finite distance to connect and wouldn't snap you to enemies, so if you miss an attack you just miss an attack.
The enemies didn't seem to mind attacking you when you're focused on something else either.
Do people just watch trailers of the game and assume it plays like Batman or Shadow of Mordor?
There is enough faults with that game, you don't need to make shit up.
