What went right?
Stupid videogameposter
>>331067505
It's literally made of rape.
>>331067505
Love these moments, the air before a shitposting battle, smells so sweet.
Expected Witcher 3 to be really good, but did not expect it to blow everything out of the water, what a time to be alive.
>This medium's The Godfather
Haha no. Sorry bub but all the top-tier film equivalents are always niche, like Killer 7 and Silent hill 2.
>>331067505
Witcher 3 is an achievement for open world games, but BB is so much more fun to play.
Honestly, SoulsBorne games wouldn't win any awards if it weren't for the extremely dedicated fanbase throat raping every one that disagrees with them.
>having fun playing based witcher man
>suddenly i'm playing a man hating lesbian mary sue who's the chosen one
why is she in this fucking game?
why is she written like a self insert?
>>331067931
yeah i really hated Ciri tbqh
Wish the main story was as engaging and focused as Hearts of Stone
>>331067505
Good writing and characters, likely due to the fact it has a ton of lore and story to go off of since its based on a novel series. i.e. someone that can actually write and not shitty game story creators.
God tier facial animations and much better interactive choose-your-speech than most games with it, even games that built their entire premise around it like Mass Effect.
Sex is handled like it should be, a normal thing that happens and people like it.
Best open world game with actual varied quests and interesting shit to do. Not just "climb this tower and then repeat the same exact copy-pasted mission fifty plus times".
Gwent
If TW3 is the Godfather of video games then what's the Once Upon a Time in America of video games? OUaTiA is better than the Godfather.

Killer 7
>>331067505
No terrible dandelion narration. Also more varied in every way in monsters. No bullshit weight limit shenanigans like its predecessor. And the story was less political and more character centric. Better maps. Better crafts. Better combat. I'm not trying to suck this games dick, but it makes witcher 2 look like absolute shit. And witcher 2 was better than dragon age games. Too bad the graphics are the only thing that hyped review outlets.
Yeah and also one of the most boring and sleep inducing games ever
>>331067505
Because they made the combat easy enough for the critics to actually be able to progress.
>>331067505
>TLoU wins every award and is beloved by normies = douchebag
>Witcher 3 wins every award and is beloved by normies = sweet man
???
>>331067505
>Life is Strange does better than Undertale and Rocket League
I am quite surprised and happy about this.
Also gotta love how this is treated as a loss for Sony. Yeah, the third best game of the year is a PS4 exclusive, the Nintendo/PC exclusives are lonely at the bottom, and Xbone has fucking nothing. Poor PS4. ;)
>>331068642
CDPRdrones haven't accepted the fact that CDPR is another dudebro pandering AAA shithole yet.
>>331068642
>exclusive
>multiplat
Oh wow
>>331068642
because TW3 isn't a $60 10 hour game using cheap storytelling to tell a melodramatic generic muh daughter story that will give the emotionally immature manchildren who play Naughty Dog games "epic feelz"
>>331067505
WTF are you talking about faggot? Actual Goatee was Undertale. That game made me cry and think about life and made me atheist. It was just 5deep7u probably.
>>331068616
>implying bullshit cheap death games are even worth a damn
>>331068894
>because TW3 isn't a $60 10 hour game using cheap storytelling to tell a melodramatic generic muh daughter story
you literally just described Witcher 3 tho
>>331067505
I'm glad it went that way, it's deserved
>paying any attention to industry circlejerks
I would rather have the witcher win than almost any of those others, mostly because I felt some effort in it. I'm not proclaiming W3 the best game ever, I'm saying I think they worked hard to make it. and besides after two games of being mostly obscure, the witcher series deserves some spotlight for a bit.
>>331067931
It's ok when cd projekt does it!
overrated fantasy shit
Kill yourself
>>331068894
That's the witcher but with 40 hours of generic filler misions
Also, the witcher is this medium's find waldo
An entire game trying to find a ugly bitch
>>331067505
why is the sonygger crying? he can play both masterpieces while PCucks will NEVER EVER play one of those
>>331069484
Because he's playing the inferior verdion
>>331067505
TW3 was normie bait so of course it got all the awards. Just look at the winners of past years.
Bloodborne was too, but TW3 got more points for hitting on the new PC gamer meme.
>>331067931
Ciri is a horrible character, did you expect otherwise?
Same shit happened with the Wii Fire Emblem game, the previous game has you playing as the manliest man Ike, then they force the mary sue Micaiah on you.
>>331069569
>TW3 was normie bait
That's not how your spell Fallout 4.
>>331069569
>but TW3 got more points for hitting on the new PC gamer meme
It was the opposite to anyone paying attention but I guess nobody was paying attention. CDPR threw their PC audience under the bus.
>>331069660
They both were.
>>331069705
>They both were.
Hardly.
Any normalfags would give up a few hours in because of all the dialogue and dodge based combat
>>331067505
>Game of Thrones still big so a similar game wins again
TW3 will end up like the last GOTY winner Dragon Age: Inquisition - forgotten.
>>331069798
Good thing people don't have to play the game for the money to get into CDPR's pockets.
>>331069848
We're talking about the awards not the sales.
>goty """""""""""""awards"""""""""""""""
real talk: the term goty hasn't meant anything other than the version of video games that comes with all the xpacs and dlc, and this has been in the case for well over a decade, i have the "goty" version of deus ex on cd. please stop pretending this term means anything at all.
I have the first two games but I've never been able to get far in the first.
Not to imply I'd jump straight into the third one, I just can't seem to push my way through them.
I like the setting, and the character dive seen seem likes stories I'd want to follow. But I feel like so much is thrown at me right away, and it's a struggle to remember it all.I'm probably just retarded.
>>331069919
Well then you're still wrong because TW3 got tons of awards. It's not some obscure and hard to get into game as evidenced by these awards that are always given to the most normie-pandering garbage.
>>331068089
nobody cares about your opinion on film. The Godfather thing is only an analogy
