Will there ever be a game worth getting hype for ever again? Seriously I can't think of one game coming out in a year I'd be hype for, I thought DaS 3 would be ok but I was let down as I expected.

Are there any hidden gems coming out soon I don't know about or is it just the same garbage as usual?

>Will there ever be a game worth getting hype for ever again?
I've been waiting for FF XV, Zero Escape 3, KH III and 2.8, Dragon Quest XI and the list goes on.
It's up to you.
>>
>>334435993
I really don't like JRPGs or VNs.
>>
I just stopped getting hyped for things and also have lower expectations, usually works out now.
>>
>>334436103
but even if i do that, i'm still let down, as i said, I knew das3 was gonna be shit and i was still let down. I really haven't enjoyed a game anymore and I don't know why.

Everything just seems like the same bullshit now a days. There is no care or love put into it, or theres too much and its just a shitty game (Undertale is a good example of this).
>>
>le tired gamer meme
Anyway "Hype" is what gullible teenagers have over the yearly call of duty. It's all generated by marketers. If you're cynical enough to be on /v/ you probably won't feel this way about a game ever again.
I was so hype for brawl you wouldn't believe, but I was a 15 year old then. As a 22 year old, I just assumed smash 4 would be mediocre as fuck and then it came out and it was worse than I expected, and none of the new characters got me excited in the slightest. In retrospect, smash4 is a better game than Brawl, but by the time 4 came out my standards had changed and all I wanted to play was project M.
Point of this story is that being an adult is suffering. Ignorance is bliss etc.

>>334436297
Well maybe its time to stop playing games or go back to try some older games. Sometimes it good to take a break from a hobby that feels more of chore than entertainment.

>>334436790
Why do you think Tumblrshits jack off all over it? It's a "muh feels" game but its actually really shitty "RPG" with top down shooter mechanics. Shit art, Mediocre music that uses a lot of repeating melodies to incite a sense of nostalgia (kirby does this as well), and some of the most blatant "progressiveness" I have ever seen. I actually liked the demo too, but man it went all down hill after that.

You should try making games. You'd learn to appreciate how much detail really goes into making a game. You could try making pong from scratch in c++ or even java and you'd discover it's not as easy as you'd think, then you'd consider that actual pong was probably coded in fucking Assembly or some shit. Or, you could make a simple 2d platformer or even a simple fps in an engine like unity or unreal 4 and even with the engine pre fabricating most of the basic functionality of the game you're trying to create, making a game is still really hard.
I'm not saying this to make you feel bad, or as a "well why don't YOU do it" kind of statement, but weather or not you make a complete game seeing the behind the scenes will help you appreciate the craft.
You can only be dazzled by games so many times before you start noticing patterns and it starts losing it's appeal. It would be like seeing a fireworks display every single day for a year. Either learn to appreciate the craft or just move on to some new hobby.

The new battlefield is WWI isn't it?

I have made snake and a 2 player space shooter before. I see where you are coming from but it's not really changing anything for me.

Always hype for Persona 5.

Horizon Zero Dawn, The Last Guardian, Persona 5, Uncharted 4, Ratchet and Clank, Final Fantasy 15, Psycho Pass, Yomawari, Star Ocean 5, Nioh, etc

Stardew isnt my cup of tea, I don't like Harvest moon type games

UR Doesn't seem all that interesting, imo

I am not a child anymore so really anything Nintendo doesn't do it for me

I've heard good things about the new one other than you have to pay to get characters and you need win 10.

I wish I could be a anime weeb fag they seem to be the only ones getting slightly decent games. I can and will never get over my disdain for anime, and believe me I have tried. It's all just fanservice and pedo shit.

Shut up, idiot. Nobody told Ebert to take classes in film making. You're talking nonsense.
>>
>>334437180
If you're letting "tumblrshits" ruin single player experiences for you that's really a problem for you personally. I mean, I know what kind of people you're talking about and they annoy me too, but you gotta learn to just appreciate things for what they are. Getting yourself spun up into some red pill induced paranoia about a vaguely defined cultural movement is a path to misery. I've been there. You can learn to ease up a little without letting go of your principles. There's a lot of problems with Undertale for sure, but really Undertale was pretty inoffensive as far as progressiveness goes. Like yeah, there's a pretty preachy and condescending tone of the game wagging its finger at you for killing things but you can still do it. Shit, you can murder literally everyone if you want to. There is a point at which a game is pandering to muh feels at the expense of all other things but undertale was pretty charming and engaging and the gameplay was varied enough to hold my interest. Still highly overrated though.
But hey, that's just what I took away from it.
also the music was fucking great, I don't know what you're on about.
>>
>>334438256
that's not what he's saying you retarded waste of skin

>>334438660
So very illiterate then. If you read the post and weren't retarded, you'd know all that anon was saying is that it can help you appreciate it more, not that you need it to be able to criticize.

>>334438660
But Ebert wrote several screenplays.

>>334438767
Wow what a fucking notion. I'm so glad that anon wrote like two paragraphs to say that.

You can pay $50 for every character in KI. You can also play with like, 1 free character on rotation without paying anything. I forget how much it costs to buy individual characters.

It's more tl;dr than me being illiterate, but blog posters gonna blog.

>>334438557
Is there one of these for previous years?
>>
>>334438713
tumblr isnt the issue I have with it. Its the "muh feels" thing I take an issue with. Not a single character seemed charming save for the robot but that instantly shattered when he became a fucking pretty boy. Like fuck that made me so mad.

I really don't like the either "LETS SAVE THE WORLD WITH POWER OF FRIENDSHIP" or "KILL EVERYONE" and thats the whole game, it really needed a better neutral path.

I basically stopped playing games after I started developing them. It's much more fun creating something yourself than playing in someone else's imagination.

>>
>>334439058
Yeah the way the paths are handled was bogus, 100% pacifist and 100% murder are unique endings while literally everything else is an unsatisfying neutral ending. And yes, the characters are pretty 1 dimensional and don't really grow or develop throughout the game. Weather you like that one dimension determines if you like that character or not.
>>
>>334437843
I've made a dinky little game and done a little project management and I still feel like that guy

Just because I know they have deliverables and that coding isn't easy doesn't make it better.

>>334439335
Exactly. These "coders" are full of shit. It's a very unrewarding job.
>>
>>334439296
I don't have any published games, the point is that being able to create them lessens the impact they have on me. I'm just not interested in playing someone else's games anymore.

For me I'm really excited for localization of Trails of Coldsteel the Hedgeheg coming later this year. Trails in the Sky is coming out next year too, I think.
Persona 5 is on the horizon too, so there's some goodies for weebs to look out for.

Some other games too, but those three are what make me "day-1-buy-hype". Still ways off though.

>>334439430
>I can use RPG Maker, and now I can see the Matrix
>>
>>334439134
Yeah the whole windows marketplace thing is just baffling. KI looked really fun when it first came out but nuts to buying an xbone for it. I was holding out hope it would come to pc some day and then my roommate tells me I should try it and lo and behold: there it is, along with quantum break, gears of war, and a bunch of other games I thought were xbone exclusive. Microsoft, what are you doing.
But yes, killer instinct has a really swell f2p model.

Against my better judgment, I have allowed myself to get the tiniest bit hyped for RDR2.

>>334439541
OpenGL and Vulkan, but sure, that could also work. Don't you think you'd appreciate a drawing less if you had the skill to recreate it?
>>
>>334439789
How is Vulkan? Is it going to revolutionize the industry and dethrone microsoft and DirectX forever?
>>
>>334439789
You're getting ahead of yourself. You, who hasn't published a game, can't claim to recreate anything. And no, if anything, I'd appreciate it more knowing the skill that went into it. You sound like a god damn child.
>>
>>334435827
i'm pretty hype about Persona 5 and Red Dead Redemption 2

>>334439789
>Don't you think you'd appreciate a drawing less if you had the skill to recreate it?
No. I'm not a narcissist.
>>
Battle Brothers is the game I'm looking forward to most at the moment. Also Colony Ship RPG but that's years away.
>>
>>334439956
Probably not, but it's especially exciting for VR and other applications that would go well with true multi-GPU rendering.

>>334439995
Honestly, you're the one sounding childish here. Way too excited about this. There's a difference between appreciating the craft and enjoying the products of it. I've never claimed to recreate anything, but it's not like half of the Steam catalogue is a creative marvel. The point is that making something is more fun than consuming it. Nothing more. Be less obtuse.
>>
>>334440701
Obtuse? Listen buddy, you're the one implying that certain achievements can be ignored if you have the proper skillset. Like the other anon said, you sound like a narcissist.
>>
I can't really get excited for games anymore. When I do I usually end up dropping them early. I've barely touched Dark Souls 3 so far, but I've been playing Enter the Gungeon for a while now and I didn't even know about it until it was out.
