gameplay and story is the only thing that matters in a game
>>
Interesting for you to say that anon.
I'm not disagreeing with you.
Story can be a good foundation for gameplay.

That and good music. Never forget good music.

And good graphics.

No, I'll take music over story any day. Good music can make bad story tolerable. I've never seen the reverse.
Games don't even need more than "save the princess" anyway because the journey is the point.
>>
In my a opinion a game is the sum of its parts and should be judged as such. Some people label it a faggy term like "gamefeel", but I prefer "cohesion".
>>
>>321922942
good music adds a lot to the experience but not esential

Give me a good game that doesn't have a great soundtrack to listen to.

Video games are not essential to the experience. Just plug some wires into your brain that periodically stimulate a sense of fulfillment.
>>
>>321925514
What the fuck is this shit? It has no music at all, how is that even fucking valid?

I don't play games to listen to sounds of people working.

So much this.

>>321924761
The only reason I even bothered to play the Final Fantasy games was because of the soundtrack.

Uematsu is so fucking good.
>>
>>321924761
>not necessary
Play a modern racing sim and tell me if its not necessary
It is more necessary than story
>>
>>321924761
so you're saying if the entire soundtrack sounded like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85AB1p6wpaY

you'd be gud

Race 07 may be the only racing sim that I played and liked, I dont remeber it having music
>>
>>321924761
I'm in a similar position with >>321926490

The only reason I didn't get a fucking brain tumor while playing Final Fantasy VIII was because of the godly soundtrack.
>>
>>321926186
I'm checking gameplay right now and the music fits perfectly, it does give off a sense that you're fighting a fucking giant.

>>321926207
That must be why I got bored of hearing "HUNGH HUNGH HUNGH" and the sound of bouncing grenades all the damn time in that otherwise empty game when I played it long ago.

>>321926280
Dropped it quickly because of how repetitive it was, if it had good music I'd play it a hell of a lot more. Wasted cash.
>>
The thing is that I never get is people who say that graphics add literally nothing to the experience, or claim that appreciating good graphics makes one shallow. Stylized art, good direction, lighting, and more can add to the atmosphere and overall experience of a game.

Discounting any piece that goes into making a game. Story, gameplay, graphics, musics, etc. seems really silly to me. It's trivializing large portions of the experience.

Pretty much any DMC. The music in 3 and 4 are so bad that it seriously detracts from the games, and it's one of my favorite series.

Well too fucking bad nigger. You're gonna read it whether you like it or not. Quit whining.
>>
>>321927002
Yeah I agree with you, it adds to the experience but Is not what I look for in a game. When a game uses its selling point as graphics it will lack in other things mostly, like crysis for example.

I mean, any game that says it's selling point is one of the features will lack the others.

So how's Final Fantasy XIII treating you? Yes, all three of them.
>>
Good story and gameplay stick with you in the long run, graphics don't unless it's really fucking impressive, just look at Avatar, nobody cares about that movie anymore, but I think most people finds it to be quite good looking.

That and music, a good soundtrack sticks with you forever.

Is "dumb frogposter" a serious, angry shitpost meant to repel pepes, or some kind of weak countermeme? Because either way, it doesn't work and just shows that you're bothered, giving them a reply that makes the whole thing funnier. I don't even post them, just tryna help you guys out.
