/v/ liked Undertale during the demo days and after it came out. Everyone was trying to find all the secrets and the first few days' threads were really comfy with (almost) zero furfaggotry.
The mainstream started to notice the game when it got a Metascore of 97 on four reviews. That's when its cancerous fanbase of furries and 'muh feels' and 'so deep and social justice so good' fags started getting into it.
Undertale is shitposted here not because of the quality of the game, but because of the fanbase it attracts. By shitting on Undertale all these fags are told to stay the fuck out. It's like Narutoposting on /a/.
>>333315471
I didnt find HLD great, particularly. It tries too hard to be difficult, which led to unbalanced bosses that catches new players off-guard(it was my case because my first boss was the north bird mage and i found it pretty difficult for its randomness and shitty hitbox collisions for a fast game). But that is my only complaint, I love it's artstyle and mechanics.

It wasnt random at all. People who have trouble with HLD are equivalent to people who think dark souls is hard, youre just awful at games that have any sliver of difficulty.

No seriously, there were threads shilling the demo every couple of weeks or so. Finally tried it out, and it was pretty great, and then the full release came out which surpassed my high expectations.
Those first few days after its initial release were a magic time on /v/, before it turned contrarian on it.

>>333316537
One of the reasons I take points off of HLD is that it could have an interesting puzzle-piece style figure it out narrative, but once you understand that the lead dev has a critical heart disease(he named the fucking company Heart Machine), the last boss and any semblance of mysterious story turn into pure shit via a stupid message about the various forms of futility.

No, quit with the revisionist history that just so happens to suit your narrative.
/v/ turned on the game because the fact that it had a Metascore that was higher than The Phantom Disappointment upset Kojimacucks and they started to shitpost in Undertale threads. This event predated the explosion of the fanbase.
>>333319269
>>333319230
Do you not realize it's the fanbase and not the game? People hate the furfag, autistic fanbase that grew around it and resented the game because of it. It's happened before and it will happen again, /v/ actually likes a lot of popular games.
>>333319282
It's true though.
/v/ had constant Undertale demo threads with Goatmom waifufaggotry and suddenly it got popular and all went to shit.

>>333318889
Something like that happened to LISA, we were having nice threads until someone started spamming "undertale vs LISA" threads.
xenoblade chronicles
actually nobody talked about the game. i heard some tracks in vidya music threads and gave it a look-see. now it's one of my top 2 RPGs

Oh fuck off.
It's not just Undertale, you hipsters do this with every single indie game that gets any sort of mainstream exposure, suddenly it becomes your fucking job to start shitposting in threads, whereas you'll leave threads about lesser-known games with no exposure alone because it's not a target-rich environment.

Currently playing this on 3ds. I'm enjoying it so far.

That's exactly what it is. Undertale is a boring game with very little gameplay depth that completely serves it's narrative bullshit. It's a feels game and nothing more that has been shilled to hell and back, yes many people were disappointed because of the inflated meta critic. This isn't so much me being contrarian as you being a pleb, I like plenty of very popular games undertale is just not that good.
>>333320148
No it wasnt. Maybe 5 or 6 posts a thread, nowhere near what we have now
>>333319496
Quit with the revisionist history.
The reason why people started shitposting in Undertale thread was because it got a higher Metacritic score than the Phantom Pain and kojimacucks started shitposting in them. This predates the explosion of the fanbase.
>>333316316
>It's like Narutoposting on /a/.
Pretty much, and it actually works.
>>333319482
No what set people off was the game not delivering on that metacritic score, undertale fags always trying to scapegoat. Worse than tlou fags I swear.
>>333320231
I'm with you anon. Some people just never fucking grew up and can't accept other opinions. I like it personally, but everyone else who likes it has made me wish I hated it.
Nier, Dark Souls II/Bloodborne, and EYE (very flawed game, but I'd kill for more games like it)
Warband. I have put over 1000 hours on that shit.
>>333318593
people want to motivate you, but they also want to make funny messages. Skeletons are littered around the games so they make a message telling the obviously dead skeleton not to give up.
>>333320451
>some people can't accept others' opinions
>he says in reply to the guy literally saying "no your opinion is wrong the game is shit"
>>333320791
He was saying why he thought it was shit, it's valid criticism. Why people want /v/ to be an extension of their own opinions I will never understand, the amount of shitposting a dissenter can cause on here is amazing

And how is that the game's fault? If anything, that's an indictment of how shitty a system metacritic is - people are honestly stupid enough to believe that you can get objectivity by mashing a bunch of subjective reviews together.
Either way, it's a weak after-the-fact rationalization for shitposting. I hated the second Half Life game, but you don't see me shitposting in every single HL2 nostalgia thread.

The first 2 days of undertake being out was actually fun here not sure what happened
I got a PS3 and Demon's Souls a while after release because some people here raved about it. Still my favorite of the games to come out
I definitely would've missed out on some PC classics if not for /v/, namely:
Deus Ex
Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines
System Shock 2
Thief 2
Guilty Gear Accent Core +R
What a fantastic fighting game this was. I was always pretty casual towards fighting games before, I enjoyed playing them on the odd time. Smashing buttons and what not. The only fighting series I followed growing up and playing was Soul Calibur prior. Friend told me to get Blazblue, I enjoyed it and ended up seeing a thread about it. Someone mentions you should try Guilty Gear. $15 wasn't that much so I bought and my word was I blown away. This was the fighter that got me into the genre for more than just a button masher. I wanted to improve and I wanted to beat everybody I played against online. It really reinvigorated my interest in games since lately they've been so stale and hand holding where I haven't had an actual challenge from one for a long time and fighting games now scratch that itch for me with Guilty Gear being my favorite.
>>333319817
>>333320573
Because getting "put off" by the fanbase of a single player game is such a stupid concept I don't even know where to begin.
Like, somebody getting put off by the community of a MOBA makes sense, because you have to play with 4 other people and they can completely ruin your experience. But the act of playing a single player game is solitary, by definition. It requires no interaction with the "community", whatever the fuck that even means in the context of a single player game.
For example, I also enjoyed the hell out of Freedom Planet. Am I now a part of the "Freedom Planet" community? Is there even a community out there? I don't know and I don't care, all I know is that it was a kickass game and I enjoyed playing it.
>>333320279
Most threads were barely 5-6 posts period. The rest looked like https://fireden.net/v/thread/263890941/
>>333321860
No I mean, people see the fanbase, and are either put off buying the game because they think
>wow this game is for faggots so I won't like it
Or get the wrong idea about what it is. Some people might even resent the game on some level because of its fanbase and not even realize
>>333314785
The Ys series.
Now my 2nd favorite game of all time is Oath in Felghana.
>>333321860
Anon it got a fucking perfect score almost everywhere, there's going to be many people who didn't think the game lived up to the hype.
>>333315463
Same here bruh. Thank you /v/, for actually doing something worthwhile.
Silent Hill 1-3 and Fallout Classic, I tried multiple times to get into them in the past but couldn't, but I kept trying because they were so praised here and Silent Hill is my favorite series and Fallout 1 is one of my favorite games ever.
I still really dislike Fallout 2 though, can't put my finger on why.

Being simple and easy to get into isn't any indication of quality.
Xenoblade Chronicles
Thought it was just going to be an decent game because nintendofags were hyping up their games ridiculously hard then (skyward sword got a 10/10 on IGN)
Nope. They were right this time. Genuinely one of the best games I've ever played.
>>333323910
No, but MGR is OBJECTIVELY vastly simpler and shallower than any other notable game in the genre. It's fun but the combat is totally broken and an awful system.
MGR compared to DMC 3 or Bayonetta is like Connect-Four compared to Chess. MGR is still a good game but to claim it's better than DMC or Bayo and then act smug and superior about that is insane.

>>333325864
I fired a fully upgraded sniper rifle from freedom at it like 50 times. BEWARE the final "boss fight" is really glitchy, it several runs of the game, I've got it to work properly once.when you get to the point with a gauss rifle and teleporters, you've more or less finished the game
I love faction wars, I'm running through bandit right now and it is a slog. I run out of ammo and bandages before I can manage to keep more than one squad of bandits alive.
>>333319578
I agree completely. I played it when it was well-liked here, and I was excited because I love the premise and the design of the robots (only in the first one) but I found it horrible. It barely has gameplay and the only scariness is jump scare game overs, and those literally never even made me jump.
I'm not trying to sound like a hotshot, lots of horror games scare me, especially jump scares but FNAF just did not phase me slightly.

I think the really impressive thing about DaS difficulty is the curve of it, it easily has the best learning curve I've ever seen in a game. Almost everyone struggles really, really hard on their first ever Souls game, regardless of which one it is, but once they get good they can breeze through consecutive playthroughs and won't have that much trouble on the other entries. I remember struggling on Ornstein and Smough for fucking DAYS, but now on every playthrough I beat them first try without taking more than 1-2 hits.
Parts of BB still give me trouble though even after almost 1000 hours. Logarius, Ebrietas, and any of the DLC or late-game chalice bosses all give me a run for my money. BB is DEFINITELY the hardest one.
