But that's not unpopular at all

In fact, it's the exact opposite

You should have to do cool things for new skins in the style of Halo 3.
I don't mind the early access system and I have a few early access games.


Entirely unrelated but I'm looking forward to SFV. I tried to get into IV but everybody was already so much better than me that I couldn't really make any headway. Am I supposed to own a stick in order to be any kind of good or will my xbone pad do the job well?

The original Halo trilogy is one of the best video game series of all time. Anyone who says Halo is shit either hasn't even played it, or if they have, never bothered to learn how to play it properly.

Its main problem comes from bizarre pacing issues. Never letting you choose your characters for 30 hours and making linear hallways be half the game. Then it all the sudden opens up. Then that horrendous forced grind. The reason was because they didn't get the PS3 dev kit or something.
Also characters know too much. There's no one to allow exposition. Characters drop words like "Grand Pulse" "L'Cie" "Fal'cie" and "Cocoon" like those are perfectly normal things. It's really confusing.

I don't know what magical fantasy reddit you've been reading. I would love to know the key to your wondrous fairy realm because in the in the shit reality I inhabit pretty much every populated gaming sub is utterly worthless as a discussion hub. r/gaming is pure cancer for the braindead and those weirdos that just want karma desperately. r/games is a crypto advertising platform. Basically game journalism magazines: the forum. If you want free press releases and like to write "I like [product]" and "I can't wait for [hot new product], it looks amazing" in needlessly long paragraphs in some sick imitation of independent thought then I guess you're set. Otherwise... I mean, don't even think about trying to discuss something more than a couple months old. You think /v/ is bad? There's a whole new level of shit with "curated" discussion. pcmasterace is a joke sub. The rest are too small or specialist.

Anyway, I second the quoted post. Unpopular opinion: /v/ is probably one of the best popular video game discussion forums active right now. And maybe that's a little sad.

I don't mind this because of the weapon customizations. There's a large variety, and this is why universal ammo was removed.

Players hardly spend their time customizing their weapons, so just imagine how annoying it would be for them to memorize and search over a dozen different types of ammo.

I never get why people call /v/ one of the worst boards. Actual discussion is fucking impossible on /tv/, nearly impossible on /mu/, and /co/ is just fucking gay. /vg/ is good for brand new games but dogshit for anything else, /vp/ is a bunch of gay furfags, and /vr/ is alright but slow as fuck and doesn't really have that much to discuss.

people on /v/ forget this a lot, people on other sites do as well. I talk to lots of people that just vehemently defend or shit on things when it's clearly not their opinion and they are just conforming to a group, reddit does it but so does /v/. Everyone should always be sure that they actually agree with what they type.

Undertale was a bad game, but a good experience, and I can understand why people did/didn't like it.

>>321470134
You can still think this and debate about it though.

I think most people on here know this. I've never seen someone legitimately change their opinion about a game because of /v/.
>>
>>321470256
Snobs are fine as long as they know what they are talking about, console war shitflinging, people talking about games they have never played, and /tv/ style memeposting are far worse than pretentiousness.
>>
>>321470450
I don't think people necessarily change their opinion based on /v/, but I think a lot of people recycle opinions on things they have never played.
>>
>>321470483
I think what bugs me most about art snobs is that they throw autistic shitfits at the mere idea of people not being as into their medium as they are.

Go on /tv/ and its 90% "REEE REEE REE NORMIES NEEDS TO STOP WATCHING THE MCU, REE REE REE"
>>
>>321470738
/tv/ does it the worst out of any board by far. They go on and on about plebs and "movies vs flicks vs film vs cinema" and then they banepost, sheevpost, and shit on everything all day long.

Most of /v/ can at least generally appreciate a game being simple fun beyond some shitposters, and you can actually talk about vidya here in some threads.
>>
>>321470969
/lit/ is pretty bad for some of this shit too, but they actually talk about literature so I guess it isnt so bad.

I think I might just hate it there because I'm a sci-fi/fantasy fag though

/lit/ is probably the most pretentious board on the site but they also know their shit the best to back it up. They hate fun more than anyone in the world though.

Good graphics do not make a game good. They make a game more immersive. Even when stylized and not realistic at all, a good artist can make graphics that immerse you.

"muhgraphics" people are the cause of the decline in the industry, not the SJWs. When you ask for better graphics, you cause people to have to do research. This research causes people to spend money that doesn't go into gameplay, which is what games are about. This additional money spent means that they need to contact shareholders and get more investments. These shareholders bring design-by-committee and other cancerous elements. The indie movement and your "SJW" boogeyman are a reaction to these elements. Elements that would not have popped up if someone didn't ask for "better graphics".

Don't ask for better graphics. Ask for better artists. Nine times out of ten, you will get a better game if you hire good artists. You will not get a better game if you just go for better graphics.

Not playing something because of the fanbase is autistic and fucking retarted and you should be ashamed for ever doing so

Not all indie games are bad, In fact, i actually really enjoyed Shovel Knight

giving a shit about what anybody thinks of you in public is fucking stupid. i say this to those faggots who think that everybody is judging you when you pull out your fucking 3ds. nobody gives a shit, and if you think they do, your either autistic or a fucking beta

Ok fine, sometimes I get a wierd look or a chuckle in my direction, but no one has ever laughed at me that wasn't either:

It has a fan-base like Homestuck which makes me wary. All the IRL people I meet that are UnderTale fans are like Social Justice Autist Maximum.

They seem to have sprung up over night just like MLP fags and declared something that is probably a decent game, THE BEST OMIGAWD SHIT 5EVER. MEMES GALORE!

It's massively over-hyped and it's riding the hype wave hard.

----
My opinion.

Randomly generated content is shitty. At least in how it's usually handled. What around the corner: "oh a small to large sized room with a low to high amount of monsters and useless to good loot!" Rogue-likes are something I have tried to like, but I find them incredibly boring lottery machines.

Binding of Isaac was okay until it became annoying. Fuck flys, they are tedious.

>>321450169
>Undertale was a good game but I can completely understand why so many people didn't like it
I haven't played it, but I went to metacritic and I saw swathes of positive reviews, 10 scores, and then finally when I saw negative reviews, a lot of them talked about how that is their second negative review and how their first one was deleted and that they saw that happen to other negative reviews too

so based on that alone I'm gonna stay away from it

the negative reviews usually said that the game was really boring

Is there a term for this? I can't really phrase this well but I think you'll get my point:

When someone starts a statement with something like "This is my unpopular opinion" or "I know I'll get a lot of hate for this, but"
And once he gets called out on his bad opinion (like supporting ISIS or something) he says

>"See? Told you so!"

And somehow because of that the person acts like he's allowed to ridicule anyone who criticizes him just because he predicted someone would call him out?

you might as well say "why watch a movie for story, I just wanna see explosions and special effects, if I want a story I can read a book"

go ahead and play tetris

Honestly I think the sudden popularity of Undertale is probably 70% because of YouTubers. Hell, I searched just "Undertale" on YT and the first result was Jacksepticfaggot's last episode of his playthrough. It's fanbase definitely went to shit, but it's nowhere near MLP tier bad like some people say, it just seems like general fan retardation to me, but it will die out in a month or two and all that will be left is the occasional person with an avatar of an Undertale character and fond memories for many.

They are a good medium for telling a simple storys or to convey a simple but strong idea or emotion.

Take the game Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons

That to me tells a much better story than anything Bioware has or will every write and Brothers has gibberish as dialogue. I get bored of games like Mass Effect and Skyrim; games that do everything at an acceptable level and do nothing innovative or at a high level.

I never understood how people can have 500 plus hours in Skyrim.

>A game has to really be shit for me not to enjoy it, no, not like "It's playable, but casualized/shallow" shit, more like "they don't even have the basic gameplay mechanics working properly" levels of shit (ride to hell for example). If a game is a 3-4/10 there's probably still enough good about it for me to derive some enjoyment out of it.
