>People would still rather be playing Skyrim than Witcher 3
According to /v/, a bad game like Skyrim should have lost its appeal a long time ago. How come that isn't actually the case, and can someone explain this phenomenon? But more importantly, how come Witcher 3 doesn't have as good mod tools as Skyrim?
>>332584464
After you beat witcher you are done playing it for a while.
When you beat skyrim you can start playing again with any array of perverted fetish Mod you know you will get your hands on.
Welcome to Bethesda games. Not loved for the gameplay. Loved for the sex mods.
It's a cinematic turd. People play it once and they are done.
>>332584464
>But more importantly, how come Witcher 3 doesn't have as good mod tools as Skyrim?
Because CDPR broke their promise and instead of releasing the REDkit which is the proper SDK used to make the game they released the "MODkit" which is a glorified texture editor
>>332584464
A majority of pc games have older rigs that can't play the witcher 3 but can play skyrim. Shiiiiit I think my computer's still using a motherboard from 2008
>>332584794
Well nobody used the mod tools for Witcher 1 or 2 because you can't really add any new content because you'd still have to play Geralt.
>>332584464
>How come the "Witcher 3 is GOTY!" meme didn't save it?
Witcher 3 lost a few points from every sjw website because it has hot steamy sex in it. So all the sjw websites dropped it by 10 points. Otherwise it would of gotten a perfect 100/100.
>>332584464
Are you making daily w3 shitpost threads 9 months after the game came out because of a lost bet or something?
Where did the Witcherfag touch you, OP?
>another asshurt bethesdrone thread
kek
>>332586743
That's because the Redkit for Witcher 2 was released 2 years after the game released. Releasing mod tools after that long isn't going to do anything since eyeballs would have moved on long after those two years.
And stuff is coming out, just not as much since CDPR was incredibly late with the mod tools

Just because a game can give more hours of entertainment, doesnt make it a better game.
Witcher 3 was a very concise, well executed package that you experience once, and then move on.
Skyrim is shoddy and mediocre by all means, but the ability to make it into whatever kind of game you want essentially makes it last forever
You can't measure other games by Skyrim's autistic playerbase.
>>332586978
This.
Sometimes I wonder what kind of a fucked up life OP has.
Think a lot of people still play this?
Why people are so stupid to reply to these bait threads?
BTW Dark Souls 3 LEAK WHEN?
>>332587130
Is it true that you still have to play as Geralt, though? Mod tools for an RPG aren't worth much if you're still stuck playing the same character.
>>332588025
>you're still stuck playing the same character.
That honestly doesn't matter given how Fallout 4 has a fuckload of mods despite being gutted in the roleplaying department and being railroaded as a parent looking for their son whilst having an elaborate backstory
>>332587290
Its so bizarre that it makes me wonder am I autistic since I can't imagine why people like OP exist or why they do what they do.
>P-puh-people are j-just waiting for the d-dlcs....
>>332588321
Shouldn't we have higher standards than that?
>>332584675
this, mods can transform skirym in whatever you want
>>332591304
They can even transform it into The Witcher, because CD Projekt are pretty good about letting people port stuff over.
>>332584464
myself and half the people playing it have it on GOG
that and most people have skyrim from the dozen of $5 sales that go on all the time
and Skyrim has crazy good mod tools because the engine is super old and they havent really changed it in 15 years. Every new witcher game comes with a new game engine
>>332594446
as stand alone games the witcher 3 is the better game
>>332591304
still cant transform it into a game with fleshed out combat, magic, and questing the way Oblivion or Witcher does it
makes me sad since so much about Skyrim is promising and then it lies harder than Todd could ever hope to try in a single demo
>>332595245
But Skyrim is better for modding. There are even some guys working on a new animation system that might let modders make better combat mods.
>>332595245
What's better about it?
>>332595786
literally everything. Name something you imagine Skyrim is better at?
>>332595571
>fleshed out combat
>Witcher
>>332595882
>Witcher 2 and 3 not having better combat than literally every RPG that'd not developed by FROM
>ever happening
Endless streams of mods turn Skyrim into a fetish machine, we all know this. Nothing surprising.
Look at motherfucking Fallout 4, I just ripped it off the site right now.
We all know any new Fallout/Elder Scrolls game will become the sex machine of the period before they pump out a new one.
>>332584464
>meta critic matters when its to back up my view.
>considering meta critic reliable
>>332596084
Witcher has the most realistic combat ever. I know because I've seen every episode of Deadliest Warrior.
We'll never have a Elder Scrolls game with melee combat as good as Dying Light...
Or a similar parkour system for thieves and assassins...
>>332595875
Pic related. Witcher 3 is a shit game m8, Skyrim is better
>Mods
>Can create you own character
>Additionally, character is a complete blank slate you can do what you want with.
>Lower specs
>Mods mods mods
We all knew it would go this way ffs
>>332596665
wow, holy shit
>>332596665
I don't disagree that Skyrim has some advantages over Witcher 3, but Skyrim's guilds were terrible and shouldn't be listed as a point in its favor.
>>332596665
I imagine all of those replies are pointing out how every single thing about Skyrim was dogshit.
You have more customization options in Skyrim, and they all fucking suck.
The Witcher is fully realized and fleshed out to play as the Witcher.
>>332596665
even a witcher quest has more flavor than the main quest of skirym.
Most of the people still playing Skyrim are probably jerking it to sex mods.
>>332597015
All the replies are essentially all the replies it's getting right now.
>"i-it doesn't count"
>>332597046
>following red shit and engaging in forced combat
Wew, such flavor
>>332597046
It does have all the atmosphere and fleshy, meaty parts with the narrative.
But it doesn't mean shit because the Witcher 3 has zero replay value. Not even for the boring combat trees Geralt has.
The endings are all nice, but the plot is all the same except with different choices. Skyrim's even worse in this aspect.
It comes down to mods saving it and turning it into a polished turd of sex and fetishes, that's all that matters.
>>332597339
What doesn't count?
He's not wrong. They're just all shit. Like saying Dark Souls II is better than Bloodborne because it's longer and has more floaty weapons which all do the exact same thing.
>>332597512
>>332597880
wew lads
not even saying that Witcher 3 is perfect. But in comparison to Skyrim? wew. fuckingWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEW
>>332597512
Bloodlines is also really good.
Doesn't mean that Witcher isn't better than Skyrim and certainly Game of 2015.
>>332597046
If the overall content of the game is mediocre no lore can save it from being mediocre.
>>332598037
Easy there m8, Witcher 3 eats Skyrim alive in the short term, but we know who you're going to turn to when you want to fuck your horse and ride it at the same time.
>>332587418
Probably.
Why are Witcher detractors so fucking childish?
When did it become okay to like the soulless slog that is Skyrim on /v/?
>>332584464
skyrim is actually a very good game. with mods, it has an incredible amount of good content.
witcher 3 lacks the modding community, replayability, and fame. Its also not as open ended as skyrim, its less of a sandbox and more of a story-driven action game with rpg elements.
but you bet your ass we're all gonna be playing witcher when that new xpac comes out. cant fucking wait.
>>332584464
Man, you skyrim autists sure want some validation. Mod support is better on Skyrim, more casuals and children play it and Witcher 3 has limited content. Skyrim is still shallow as fuck and The Witcher 3 is only good as a technical marvel (go and post a low settings screenshot in reply).
>>332599110
>When did it become okay to like X?
When you started touching yourself at night anon
>>332584464
The general populous likes streamlined shallow shit.Oblivion and Morrowind were better games
>>332587130
Not only that, they did some weird shit with the way the game was divided. If you make one change to the combat, you have to basically make four or five mods to cover each segment of the game, instead of one mod that does it universally.
>>332599110
It's one guy.
He makes anti-crpg threads too.
The levels of autism are great.

don't they know that it is illegal to like things?
