Is this the first case ever of GOTYbait? It certainly seems to tick at the right boxes for it.

>western game
>strong female protag who doesn't need a man, maybe even a lesbian
>who is also isn't very pretty, not ugly, but not supermodel so trans and ugly girls alike can project onto her and not feel like a male power fantasy
>uses bow and arrow just like Katniss from The Hunger Games, tumblr easily identifies here
>Huge metal dinosaurs are representations of the patriarchy's leftover relics in this new age for human, and you hunt them down and destroy them

How anyone can support this game unironcially is beyond me.

If I had to take a guess, it'll be over-praised by the general audience, while having shallow open world/3rd person gameplay.

>Huge metal dinosaurs are just new versions of male toys to play with, letting the patriarchy live out ther male-sex fantasy as a lesbian fighting their Dino-Bots.

How anyone can support this game is a pretty cool dude

People need to realize this is an action game and at face value it looks fucking DOPE for an action game.

Buzzword of the month?


How is this even a bad thing

Like nigga, how is it bad that you have aspirations?
Shit like this is why niggas never prosper in life

I really hate their design. They all look like xXX420_BLAZE_IT_B0nG$/v\OkA2XXx
>>
>>323245906
Almost none of these things are even true
>>
>>323250873
They aren't targeting you. They're targeting the 16-24 year old crowd that discovered video games last generation. That is Sony's marketing demographic for this title.
>>
I genuinely hope they scrap the girl and have you just make your own character

TLoU was blatant GOTYbait and was nothing more than a shallow tps with muh feels
>>
>>323252165
Nah, it has good gameplay just overly scrpited level design

The multiplayer is fantastic since you don't deal with scripted shit

Does anyone think that Gurrrilla Games can actually make a good game?

If 2016 bombs, I'm just gonna quit videogames.
The "normie" life is great anyway.

The gameplay is extremely shallow and repetitive. It does not have good gameplay. It's the same waist-high third-person cover shooter we've been seeing since Gears got popular.

>>323252165
TLoU wasn't GOTYbait, it was just overhyped because something new from Naughtydog.

Bioshock Infinite was GOTY and citizen kane and then it came out and everyone quickly forgot about Infinite and started calling TLoU GOTY and citizen kane

Anomolies happens sometimes.

See: Mirrors Edge, Beyond Good & Evil, Dragon Age Origins

and that's all I got for now
>>
>>323252165

It was a movie game, the plot was more important than the gameplay. Gameplay is just a vessel to convey the story, unlike normal games where the story is just a vessel to explain how you get to the next location
>>
>>323255089
That's really not helping the case that it wasn't GOTYbait since the fags giving those awards out love that shit
>>
>>323255465

I'm not trying to suggest it wasn't GOTY bait
>>
>>323253813
2014 bombed for games, and they are still here
>>
>>323245906

fuck me it never ends with you cunts, does it
>>
>>323254537

Infinite's praise was obviously bought and temporary just to shill season passes. TLoU was popular enough to rerelease two more times within one year and is still held up as some pinnacle of game design.

Why the fuck Naughty Dog gets hailed for innovation when it's still using the Uncharted 1 engine from nearly a motherfucking decade ago I will never know, but that's a whole different thing.

GOTYbait have existed for years

I'd say TLoU and The Order 1886 were GOTYbait, though the latter was heavily misguided in its endeavors.

>>323245906
As long as its a good game, I dont care.

>Is this the first case ever of GOTYbait?

What is every indie title of the last four years ironically
