how do you feel about pandering in videogames?
>>337162140
She has more than one bosom?
>>337162357
She can transform into CPU form.
I like being pandered to.
Pandering is like going into a restaurant and instantly getting recognized by the waiter and offered your favorite dish. You'd have to be a tremendous faggot to throw the plate on the floor and exclaim "NO STOP PANDERING I NEED SOMETHING THAT CHALLENGES MY TASTEBUDS".
>>337162140
Depends how thirsty I am
>>337162140
I like pandering when the game doesn't take itself seriously.
>>337162140
I don't have a problem with that.
>>337162140
When did they stop calling it "fanservice"?
>>337163801
It stops being fanservice and starts being pandering when you don't like it.
>>337163801
it's 2016, dad
>>337162140
Depends on your definition of 'Pandering'. Having bit, luscious tits in a video game is not 'Pandering' it is giving the customer what he wants, or big muscles and groin packages for what she wants.
'Pandering', in my mind, is putting stupid shit in a game or taking out the fun, jiggly stuff to appease a whiney but vocal minority.
Tits and cute butts good, gender neutral faeries bad.
>>337164610
Sorry, should read 'BIG luscious tits'
>>337164045
I am just your mom's husband.
I am not your dad.
>>337163562
Whoa is this official?
Pandering is fine.
>>337166219
Yes.
Because it's to multiple people and intended to be a selling point, it seems whorish. I only want pandering on a personal level, and on something of good quality even without it.
>>337162140
I hate any sort of pandering to be honest. It lowers the quality of the final product in both the artist's eyes and typically the consumers, at least those who aren't being catered to.
>>337166219
>>337166654
yes
>>337167139
The people who hate shit like this are the type of people who meme irl and then post about how 'cringeworthy' it is to see people meme irl.
post uni
If you really stop and think, somebody somewhere is being pandered to no matter what.
Nep doesn't have a lot of pandering.
>>337167139
Holy shit.
>>337167701
>>337167139
NepNofuckingway, really?
It's not really a question of being pandered TO, it's a question of doing the panderING.
The thing everyone forgets is it's not just about giving the audience what they want, it's about giving the audience what they want, at the expense of artistic integrity.
To go with that other guy's food analogy, (because fucking EVERYTHING has to be a food analogy), it's walking into a resturaunt, being instantly recognized, and being given exactly what the chef thinks you want, as opposed to a dish the chef is passionate about and is waiting to serve to someone, but will likely never get the chance to.
>>337163313
Everybody gets tired of their favorite dish eventually.
>>337168510
Speak for yourself.
>>337167803
Games with no pandering as just pandering to anti-pandering fags.
>>337166946
Sometimes you just have to accept that you aren't the target demographic for some games.
>>337162140
Depends. Fanservice is okay depending on how serious the game is. But when it's blatantly using humor or references to pander towards a certain fanbase it gets obnoxious.
OP's pic is very relevant, but he chose the wrong line. The part where they say something along the lines of "Go back to neppit" is absolute cancer.
>I WILL NOT LIKE SOMETHING THAT IS DESIGNED TO BE OF MY LIKING BECAUSE THE DEVS KNOW WHAT I WANT
This is more or less how anti-panderingfags sound
>>337166219
the world needs more Iffy
"Pandering" is more than just fanservice. Every product panders to some audience.
>>337167139
Awesome
>>337162140
It's made to appeal to certain audience that already likes that type of stuff, pandering isn't exclsuive to "pedo fanservice weebshit", AAA games do that too, why else do you think a crapton of western titles reuse the "former solder/mercenary/someother"badass" with sad past"? Because it panders to people
>>337162140
Everyone hates it unless it panders to straight men.
Sorry to sound like a SJW, but it's true. /v/ will literally complain about clothing added to a character so that the character doesn't look like a blank, textureless model.
lin from xenoblade anyone?
If you add more tits and less clothing then there'll be no complaints. Gamers are literally retarded and it's a shame decent people don't exist in this community.
>>337169691
Gee its like most of /v/ are straight white men...
This is like going to tumblr and saying that white men's opinions are the only ones that matter
>>337167701
Uni is such a little slut. And by little I mean huge. Every movement she makes is sexual. She is LITERALLY asking for it.
>>337162140
I love it when it pander to me
>>337170359
That image is fucking disgusting
>Neptunia U was all about trying to be a Senran clone
>Neptune and Nepgear get their usual stripes
>Everyone else gets white
>The Nep sisters alt colors are also plain white shit
Saddest platinum I ever got.
>>337170438
how so
>>337162140
I like it when games pander to me
>>337170127
But Uni is literally the purest Nep. Please don't spread nasty lies about her.
>>337170127
>>337171057
>>337171927
fucking slut
>>337167139
How can you not fucking love the Neps for stuff like this?
Mattaku...
>>337171927
>>337172097
>>337172246
I don't dislike it, but worth pointing.
>>337172443
>>337172443
A big part of 4chan does though, and this series is one of the few (if not the only one), that's not an indie, that references 4chan.
>>337162752
Marvy cant transform dude. Shes just a ninja.
>>337172246
I love the series for other reasons, like pic related, but I can see why some would like/dislike things like that, to me it seems natural, it's parody of gaming and it's culture, so it's literally 2ch in japanese script, not much of a suprise they take reddit and 4chan as inspiration for english one, it still cracks me up how people spout shitty memes and then complain about memes in games though
>>337172767
>Nep is the only non-indie game to ever reference a chan
>>337172767
the english translation does, not the serie.
I never played these because I assumed they were trash. I have a friend who's into them and he has awful taste, so I assumed they were shit too.
I've been giving weeb stuff like this a shot recently though and want to give the series a shot. Where's a good place to start?
>>337173330
start with a small buttplug
>>337172961
You really did your best to misconstrue what that anon wrote, didn't you?
>>337170359
>>337173330
Probably with re:birth 1
>>337173330
Re:Birth1 -> Re:Birth3 -> VII
Then it's up to you. You can check out the spin-offs then (or Re:Birth2 but it's not that good).
>>337163525
avatarfagging is not allowed on 4chan
>>337173542
thanks senpai
>>337173564
>>337173581
Thanks. I'll definitely give it a look.
>>337167139
Jesus christ.
There's a point where this shouldn't exist.
>>337173330
Since you're allergic to trash run while you still can. Re;Birth 1 on steam is the best start though for someone like you. If for whatever reason you manage to like it Re;Birth 2 is much different storywise and changes up the cast for 80% of the game. Re;Birth 3 brings it back. Don't ever touch the spin-offs. Ever.
V-II on PS4 (soon to be Steam) is genuinely the best Nep game there is gameplay and story wise but jumping right into that one you lose out on any characterization.
>>337173542
Now THIS is my fetish!
>IF got her own game before Vert
>>337173982
Alright cool. I heard good stuff about that one on PS4 and that's why I've been curious about it lately.
>>337173542
Sauce pls
Ok PC-only fags, here's how it works
V2 has a prologue with Nep, Gear and Uzume
Then a route split for all 4 CPU's that you can tackle in any order you want
And then a whole lot of stuff happens, like, A WHOLE FUCKING LOT
Also Nepgear is no longer a punching bag, which is sad
Also C-sha best -sha, and puts Vert to shame
>>337174410
>4 Goddes Online
>MMO setting
>Vert isn't the MC
All is right in the world
>>337163525
Fuck off with your 7-up meme faggot, its not funny it wont catch on
>>337173982
I thought hyperdevotion noire was nice to play.
Action unleashed wasn't that bad either, just over priced
>>337174410
>game that should be Vert's isn't
>>337167139
You know when people ask "have memes gone too far"?
This, this is when memes go too far.
>>337162140
It's ok when it panders to me.
>>337174735
Localization problem. Blame nickel
>>337174853
who?
>>337174796
>>337174853
That sentence is literally only there because of us being a big buyer basethe translator is probably in this thread right now
>>337170438
>I've eaten pussy before
>I've sniffed panties before (on and off the girl)
>I've drank coffee before
Nothing wrong with it.
>>337174929
It's because there's a 80% chance there was 2chan in original script
>>337175021
>Nothing wrong with it.
then you're a pedo
>>337174410
IF should have been the first one to get a spin-off, tbqh
>>337162140
Pandering is fine. What's NOT fine is pandering and then getting assmad that people outside the demographic you pander to dislike the game.
You want to make a weeby tittygirl game to pander to weeb boys? That's cool, just don't get fannyflustered when Cucktaku and Polygon shit on it.
You want to make a Trigender-Disabled-POC-Owlkin simulator to pander to the Tumblr crowd? That's cool, but don't get sphinctersavaged when weeby or twitchy audiences don't buy it.
>>337162140
pandering is good if it means i can move my penis and feel good but big menie make bigger market and that makes me sad :(
>>337175129
>deflecting to pedophilia for no reason
>>337175163
>That's cool, just don't get fannyflustered when Cucktaku and Polygon shit on it.
There's so much wrong with this sentence I don't even know where to start
>>337162140
Everything in entertainment is pandering, that's what entertainment is all about. Why it's used only for sexual content on here just baffles me.
>>337175231
the girl in the picture is obviously underage
>>337175021
Not at the same time.
>>337175275
It's literally problematic and i just can't continueClass A trolling, by the by.
>>337175353
No, you are just projecting like a little faggot
>>337175294
well it's also considered pandering if there's a black dude so i guess that says something about the people on /v
>>337175057
I understand that, but I can't help but feel like there's a better way to do it.
>>337175442
>tiny child's legs
>not obviously underage
Retard.
>>337167139
holy fuck i was not interested in this series before but this is a next level of what the fuck am i reading over here.
That's pretty fuckin' problematic.
>>337175494
Not really, you remember that line from RB3 about narwhals and neppit? From what I have been told the original was again, reffering to some term/meme on 2ch, so it's either go full reddit, or go reddit/4chan
>>337175129
>then you're a pedo
>calling someone a pedo
>on 4chan
Literally no one cares where do you think you are?
>>337175646
I guess I'm just against referencing memes in general because it's the easiest way in the world to date your work.
Keep in mind its the localization team puts the joke, if you use japanese dub you will notice it
I like it when its in the same context with japanese version, but not when its inserted when there are none
>>337175275
If you make a tittygirl game, Polygon and Kotaku are going to review it poorly. People who get their gaming news primarily from those sites are going to be told your game is bad and problematic. That's just how shit works. You can't make a tittyanime game and then say "hey, why do journos who target their content to people who dont like tittyanime games, say they don't like our titty anime game?". That's not the crowd you are looking to sell your game to.
Conversely, 'Privilege Checker Simulator 2016' is going to get shitposted to death here. This isn't their target audience. Same thing.
>>337175442
>implying
Don't worry, you can still compete with the BBC:^)
>>337175682
I know right we're so le edgy here at 4chan we laugh at peodphilia!
>>337175879
It has nothing to do with being edgy memelord
Pretending to be an SJW to get your beloved (You)s is lower than pedophiles btw
>>337175776
How is it a game's fault that the reviewer is a fucking retard?
>>337162140
I'm alright with it.
I can't play Super Serious Work of Art 4 all the time.

Did it ever occur to you that these are the games these girls want to make?
>>337177158

>>337177549
Did it ever occur to you that it wasn't? Also your side has some pretty fucking good arguments, >>337177460 nearly floored me

it's like the 4th time you say this we get it.
>>337177670
>Did it ever occur to you that it wasn't?
Do you have some proof? I mean they made their games like this even when they weren't profitable to keep making them.
>>337177670
Not him, but they have interviews as evidence to their claims. You probably don't

Wew lad
>>337177984
That's quite a big lie to make 2ch meme-referencing, otaku games back before they made the company any money.

Beastiality is wrong. Don't sleep with panda's.
>>337178054
Baited, get fucked noob
>>337177158

Or because the game was made by otaku, it reflects otaku interests.
>>337178085
Oh come on, she's moderately attractive for her age. She just needs a makeover.
>>337177670
How do you know what they want to make
Are you a mind reader?
>>337177158
>sell out their artistic integrity
You do realize there are plenty of jap studios that LIKE making these games right?
>>337178318
I never said she wasn't cute.
>>337177115
Don't bullshit us, you just want to marry her for access to her Nep porn
>>337177158
>not wanting to draw underage anime girl pantsu
>>337177115
Isn't she already married?
>>337178453
>you'll never get access to the official Nep or Date a Slut porn
>>337177158
>>337162140
I PREFER playing games with strong fundamentals and production values, pandering, especially naked pandering like Neptunia games, is the sign of incompetent work that needs to slam in shitty pandering to sell.
>>337178936
They don't really have the money to make their games good from a production standpoint. It's also why they reuse assets so much and they have such low sales expectations, because it means the games are capable of being made on a budget.
I wouldn't be surprised if 80% of the budget in these games goes to the voicework.
>>337179228
Japanese VAs were a mistake
>>337180043
VAs are a mistake
>>337180043
Rie Tanaka isn't a mistake for my dick, and Kana Asumi isn't a mistake for my ears.
Bad games, bad ports, bad fanbase. The series is dying stop shilling this trash.
>>337180375
>sales higher than ever
>>337180346
They are both completely and utterly wasted on this franchise
>>337162140
Pandering is fine, but it shouldn't be the only redeeming quality of the game.
The same is true for any medium, which is why 99% of anime is shit. It just panders to people who will buy anything with a cute girl slapped on it regardless of quality. When people buy something just because it panders they're telling developers it's okay to release something that's irredeemable garbage with zero effort put into it as long as it has that thing that panders to them, which ends up making that medium worse for everybody since less people are motivated to take risks when they can just do the east thing.
>>337180375
>The series is dying
Sure is.
>>337180375
>>337180507

>pee cee ports selling 50% less with each games
>fanbase overtaken by memesters
They wanted the 'mainstream' audience and they got it. What's the next step?
>>337180663
It fucking is Nepnigger. Sonyggers are getting disinterested in the series and PCucks stop buying since the intial meme that was rebirth1 on steam is fading. What do you think will happen next?
>>337173542
now this is how you pour it
>>337180663
>>337180801
You better fucking buy 3 copies of Hyperdevotion on Stea...oh wait, even that won't be enough.
>>337181578
Hyperdevotion was garbage. But I've enjoyed the main games and other spinoffs. But I'm not dropping money on brand name alone
>>337181418
VII is the best nep game, the newest mainline installment, is a good rpg in general, one of the best games released this year, sold well, and made the series more popular.
Fanbase has nothing to do with anything. The spinoffs are cheap to produce and are mediocre, made by different devs. They are getting better though, for instance, the new Blanc and Neptune game is an improvement over Nep U.
Keep being biased and memeing though.
>one of the best games released this year
I'm out
>>337181578
Go away Noire. You won't trick me into being your friend.
Compile Heart is pretty much a one trick pony and relies heavily on it, and people buy it up regardless
FUCKING NEPMIESS, NEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>337181872
Idea Factory made one big mistake though, one mistake that is going to cost them alot. It's a mistake that will take time to take effect but you will see for yourself.
VII is fairly irrelevant to that for now.
>>337182224
What mistake tho?
>>337181418
>steam shovelware
As opposed to console shovelware?

>>337182738
Games were seen as kusoge by the nip audience and completely ignored by nomalfags in the west with a solid fanbase conscious it was weebshit but willing to support it. The games weren't extraordinary but did had some value, they were around $30 for the PS3 games then the Vita games were worth $40 and there also was the LE editions on which niggas wasted their money.
Now the same game is worthless, 3 months after and it's worth $7 on steam, why on earth a sane person still by them full price on release? On top of that there are so many of them now that they get devaluated even more. Shit is just not worth spending more than $5 nowadays while it used to be a fairly small investment to get your weebshit dose you can proudly display on your shelf.
>>337183782
Use your fucking head nigger. Consider the big picture. What do you see? Pay attention, there's a fatal mistake somewhere and it's going to cost alot. Refer to other companies that bite the dust if you are too dumb.
>>337184528
>your weebshit dose you can proudly display on your shelf
Fucking bust a gut reading this
Maybe if they want people to keep buying them for full price, they'll have to start making the games better?
>>337184528
>why on earth a sane person still by them full price on release
But i don't,im a pirate
>>337184820
Yes, know you are a butt pirate.
>>337184783
And they did with VII. But now what? You pay $60, maybe drop $350 for the console then they tell you if you were just a little bit more patient (you already waited 1 year for localization) you could get the game for $15 or even free on your PC. Wouldn't you feel like you wasted your money and got fucked in the ass pretty hard?
>>337185049
You can't pirate nepgames.
>>337184820
You pirate the vita games?
I pirate all my shit too but I still buy games on consoles that weren't hacked. And now it's £60 I won't be spending on Neptune Vs Zombies LE since I can just get it for free and even I wasn't planning to pirate it would be an impressive sale of FIVE BRITISH POUNDS holy shit IF will grow larger than Microsoft with that!
>>337185049
>Wouldn't you feel like you wasted your money and got fucked in the ass pretty hard?
No, because I wanted the LE
>>337185374
Took me 10 seconds to find. You can't imagine how I feel seeing this after buying it on Vita full price and pumping so much money into the franchise, buying LEs and shit. Idea Factory won't see another penny from me. I hope they love their new audience. You better buy 3 copies of their next game, because I'm done.
The fanbase turning into steam memesters was the first and the megadimension annoucement for le ebin steam platform the last straw. Good luck.
>>337186174
>BAAAAAAW PEOPLE CAN PIRATE IT NOW I CAN'T SUPPORT THEM ANYMORE
You obviously don't give a fuck about the games themselves, just "muh principles" you fucking poser

you're not entitled to anything special because you bought a game for full price at release, you know that right

>>337186762
If you don't mind going through the same dungeons, seeing the same stock enemies hearing the same music and seeing the same CG backgrounds then yes they're worth it.
>>337186329
You don't get it you retard, do you?
Why the fuck did I wasted all that money when I could have just played it for free? I own a more than capable PC, why the fuck didn't I had the choice?
They were a niche little company and they wanted support, I gave them and I got fucked.
>>337186372
Why wouldn't I? I got fucked pretty hard and so did every vita owner and potentially PS4 buyer out there. Some don't want to see it and justify it with "b-but it's a good thing more people will play my niche game yay, gaming is becoming more inclusive!". But yeah I'm butthurt about the devs not giving a shit anymore, whoring the franchise, the fanbase being flooded with memesters and dumb niggers like you.
>>337186715
Yet because you are a platform fanboy you feel entitled to fucking everything. I'm sorry but when I buy a niche game from a niche developer on the verge of bankrupcy I expect some fucking shit in return. Sorry for having standards.
>>337175602
I disagree. The games are very meta and 4th wall breaking, so this kinda stuff is going to happen and I just laugh and enjoy it.
>>337187024
Nobody gives a fuck about you not buying their games anymore.
>>337186951
That plays at a shitty resolution with jaggies runs at an impressive 20fps and is inferior in every way to the steam version.
Sorry bro but digital is just much more convenient and you know it too. Your LE is just a piece of plastic bundled with some trash $1 goodies.
>>337187024
>Why the fuck did I wasted all that money when I could have just played it for free?
Because you assumedly loved the games? Obviously you don't if you're this much of a bitch-ass nigger queen about it.

>>337172443
It's the entire point of Neptunia, so memes like this will never bother me. But in the case of games that are NOT about net culture, it's a bit more jarring.
>>337187218
Except it's not just me. PC fags aren't buying anymore and sonyggers are getting disinterested because the series is turning mainstream steam shovelware.
Though, just buy 3 copies of the next game for $7 during a steam sale and you will definitely save the series!

lol youre a fuckin retard
>Yet because you are a platform fanboy you feel entitled to fucking everything. I'm sorry but when I buy a niche game from a niche developer on the verge of bankrupcy I expect some fucking shit in return. Sorry for having standards.
nice projecting
also you got a game in return, exactly what you paid for
>>337187024
>I can no longer enjoy thing because other people now enjoy it for free
Holy shit dude this is pretty fucking sad, your enjoyment for everything must be extremely empty and petty.

You're getting more games you fucking whiner. If you really can't deal with the fanbase, just save everyone the trouble and kill yourself.

Calm down PCuck, I doubt people care much about what you have to say.

Tell me how you are enjoying that Undertale game? Gonna pre-order 2 copies of an eventual Undertale 2?
Oh yeah, nigger fanbase completely doesn't matter.
Why do these people think they're being funny and original every fucking steam review for a Japanese game? Always mentions something about a parent walking in.
Wouldn't surprise me if it was one of you.

Pandering is more putting X into the game just to appeal to a specific demographic.
Based on this definition:
>gratify or indulge (an immoral or distasteful desire, need, or habit or a person with such a desire, etc.).
I would say that pandering is more than simply appealing to a demographic, for example, having good gunplay in an FPS wouldn't be pandering because that's the point of the game genre, but having a scene where during a super serious war FPS one of your squadmates comes out as gay (with no prior indiction or relevance) or where your character breaches a room only to run headfirst into some titties, would be.
I think there's a level of... dishonesty in pandering, the thing wasn't added to the game because it makes a better game, it was added to the game in an attempt to appeal to a demographic by taking "the thing those specific people like" and saying "HERE WE HAVE THIS THING ISN'T IT GREAT"
It's like, say I really liked peanut butter sandwiches, and I ate them a lot at this shop that is masterful at making peanut butter sandwiches, then I go to a rib place for some ribs and the waiter comes up and slaps a hastily made peanut butter sandwich that kind of looks like the ones the other place makes but it doesn't look or taste right, and either way I wanted ribs in this instance even if I like peanut butter sandwiches.
>>337187636
How is me not giving money anymore to a company I believe has fucked me and a subjective group I somehow are part of insanity?
How is stating opinion based on facts (every new neptunia release on steam sells 50% less than the previous) insanity?
I guess it's okay when you get mad at Nintendo porting their shit to mobile, but when the weeb niche shit you invested yourself in get's swarmed with obnoxious faggots it's insantiy.

I also pirate music, but thats fine right?

Remember the days when people aren't trying to shove console war bullshit down everyone's throats in every nep thread?
Seriously, fuck off with your console war bullshit. Nep fans are just happy more people can enjoy the same shit they like and have more people for Nep discussions.
You're here just to shitpost and shove console war crap down everyone's throats. Kindly fuck off.
>>337187934
You got cucked pretty hard to be honest. The superior version is here, sitting in my steam library while you are bragging about a piece of plastic. How's it feel?
>>337187934
>Let me guess you're mad because you were too slow to buy the NA LE of Re;Birth 1.
I was actually fast enough to place a order. But amazon canceled my order...
>>337187706
That's practically the reason for buying a lot of these sorts of games. Half the sales of Nekopara are probably just down to people wanting to write 'witty' reviews and get another X on their 'X people find this review funny'.
>>337188042
I was defending it being multi-platform, nice reading comprehension there. That other whiny bitch is the one shitting on the series for going on PC
>>337187926
I thought we were talking about fanbases ruining games? And the undertale fanbase is a pretty good example of a fanbase ruining a game.
>>337188179
I doubt he feels cucked. He still has it brand new sealed. It sold for like 60 bucks at the time and now the cheapest price for a new copy is $1000 on amazon.
Now kindly fuck off with your console war bullshit.
>>337188283
>fanbase ruining a game.
They're bad but they have not changed the original game at all, people who let others stop them from enjoying things are the worst.
>>337188283
Not that guy but how exactly do piratefags ruin a series? The memers were prevalent before it came to PC so don't try and argue that
REMINDER
UNDERAGE FAGGOTS GET THE FUCK OUT
>>337167139
Holy shit that's amazing.
1:1 meme translations from 2chan always make retards on 4chan cringe but god damn, that is very good.
>>337188019
You're insane because you clearly don't actually like these games, and yet are L I T E R A L L Y C R Y I N G over them
>>337186979
I'm really in it for the funny jokes, cute girls, and... well, that's it.

>Nep fans are happy about the current state of the neptunia fanbase
Yeah and let's all vote for Bernie Sanders and take at least Muhammads into our homes because we should be happy about more people being able to enjoy our lifestyle at our expense. I'm an idort who has been following the series since HDN and fuck what the steam releases have done to the fanbase.
>>337188808
>at our expense
Fucking victim complex much?
The fanbase was always shit, you poser
>>337173165
The series is more about net culture, which involves 2chan which makes it a number 1 candidate for a localization to 4chan memes since we have similar memes about similar things.
>>337188808
>>Nep fans are happy that steam DUDE WEEBSHIT LMAO memesters got to bandwagon the series and shit the fanbase with memes and shitposting
This, Nepgen used to pretty much be this like >>337186461
/v/ermin can't even discuss the game without a meme here and there.
>>337188463
>>337188463
>Not that guy but how exactly do piratefags ruin a series?
Just look at these threads. All they every discuss is how everyone got cucked and pc is superior. They don't even care for these game, the story, the jokes or characters. All they argue about is how they won and all consolefags lost.
It's disgusting how good threads devolve into bullshit console/pc wars because of these shitty piratefags.
>>337188398
They changed your perception of the game and they will influence how others will play the game. The Souls series is a perfect example of that. You're not really living cut down from the world so whenever you like it or not fanbases have an influence over the enjoyment you get from video games.
>>337188980
>>337189020
>wearing shitposting goggles this hard
>>337187334
vert
>>337175494
There isn't. It's a 2chan meme translated and localized to a 4chan meme. Why would you want anything else when the joke is literally already written, that's the point of memes.
>>337189060
>You're not really living cut down from the world so whenever you like it or not fanbases have an influence over the enjoyment you get from video games

Modern /v/ for the most part. Oh well.
Fan feedback should be taken into heavy consideration, but don't just blindly listen to everything they demand.
And especially don't pander to people who don't even play games.
>>337162140
unsubtle and undeserved.
>>337175740
Yeah but what do you do when the original script was also memes?
You see that shit at the footer that says [futaba] [yotsuba]?Actually they removed it but if you don't remember it you are a newfag and should get the fuck out.
>>337189020
But this is literally every console exclusive thread too, just look at all the BB and Uncharted 4 sonygger shilling and PCuck false flagging.
Bottom line every single thread on /v/ is cancer no matter what platform the games are on

Are these games heavy on story? Like, if I were to get the most recent PS4 game with no prior Neptunia experience, would I be lost?
