This is why consolefags are stereotyped as underage retards who don't understand market forces, because it's completely true.

Let me educate your dumbass, summerfag.

There are good exclusives such as Halo and splatoon, that help the industry, and those that hurt the industry would be bloodborne and uncharted 4.
With BB and U4 being exclusive, PS4 owners do NOT BENEFIT. Those games would still be available to you at the same price anyway. The only thing you get is the ability to gloat over buying a different console, which is retarded to gloat about.
By preventing Billy down the street from playing bloodborne because he owns an Xbox1, you gain literally nothing.
Sony spends millions of dollars making games exclusives in order to suffocate the market and give consumers unfavorable choices.

The fact that you would celebrate a game company spending tens of millions of dollars to prevent other people from playing video games shows just how little you understand basic economics. Your exclusives does increase in quality in anyway, and remains the same price.
It is effectively the exact same product if it wasn't exclusive.

If sony concentrated the money they spent on exclusives towards perhaps cheaper PS4's, better game deals, or superior internet connectivity, then people would buy the PS4 for being the better piece of hardware with better service

But instead, sony spends millions of your money to make sure some random fucker down the street cannot play the same game as you. And you unironically brag about


This confirms my suspicion that you are underaged, because any adult can understand and comprehend how a market works, and realize that he is not getting anything with an 'exclusive'. it's a marketing term that actually hurts him as a consumer.

You'd almost have a point if you had picked different examples. I'm not sure why you've decided to single out Sony here, either. Bloodborne (and Demon's Souls, the game it wouldn't have happened without) is completely funded and published by Sony, as is Uncharted. They're not completely developed by internal studios, but Sony is integral to their happening in the first place. I'm not sure how you think they're different from Halo.

I didn't explain healthy exclusives like Halo or splatoon

Those games are created, because the hardware developers want to increase the appeal of their console. Halo is a reason for a consumer to buy an xbox.

Halo is good, because it's like adding an attachment for a vacuum cleaner. Hey, this vacuum cleaner you can buy now also has a brush tool that you can get.

Where are exclusives like uncharted 4 are more like "Hey we can chuck a rock at your neighbor's vacuum cleaner, that makes you want to buy ours more, right?"

and like the complete retard you are, you actually think you're getting something

Halo was money invested in order to make the Xbox a better choice for the consumer. Competition helps the consumer in this scenario, the consumer only benefits. His options are getting better, not worse


With bloodborne, a game that could have come to xbox, PC, and even the WiiU, it was artificially restricted.

Sony paid tens of millions to make sure that game would not come to other consoles. Now, the consumer lost in this scenario. Sony spent millions of dollars to make sure that I had shittier options. This hurts the consumer, because the options become worse, not better. There was no reason for bloodborne to stay as an exclusive

Now, the funniest part about this shit is where the sonyggers will unironically brag about having exclusives like bloodborne.

Bloodborne does not benefit the sonygger for being exclusives, because it could have been multiplat. Whether or not the sonygger gets the game does not depend on the game being exclusive or not. In effect, nothing changes for the person who bought a PS4. That money could be spent on improving the experience for the PS4 owner, but it is spent on harassing Xbox owners. Again, like throwing a rock at your neighbor's vacuum cleaner. It doesn't benefit you at all

It's funny, because you're too retarded to actually respond with a counter argument. Instead, like the dumbass console player you are, you just mad libbed my post.


Games like Splatoon and Halo are healthy exclusives, because they improve the options for the consumer. Previously you had multiplats for both Xbox and PS4. Now, the Xbox has an additional game, making it a better option. The consumer wins

But, you cannot comprehend this because you're underaged. Bloodborne was going to be a multiplat, meaning everyone could have it.

Sony spent tens of millions to make sure it was exclusive after that. As a PS4 owner, your product has not changed. It has not improved in a single regard. However, someone who isn't you loses. At not point does the your dollar go farther, at no point does it increase in value, but rather you are unaffected.

That money could be spent on YOU. But you would rather brag about something that doesn't benefit you, and hurts others

Indie games are the saviors of the video game industry.

/v/'s overly negative opinion on everything is bad for discussion and bad for the board.

Games made by smaller companies should and can be forgiven for minor problems or poor design in some areas

Free to play games have revolutionized the market and are a net good.

'Roguelite' games and heavy RNG in non-competitive games is excellent for creating massive amounts of replayability and helps balance the game for the individual player. For example if you are a shit player and get good luck that can help you win a run but if you are a great player and get shit luck it makes the game more challenging to your skill level.

Art games are not bad as long as they actually contain some amount of gameplay

Overwatch is a great game and all the hatred it's now experiencing from /v/ is salty contrarians looking for the next thing to hate

Unnecessary or tacked on RPG elements are fine.

FN@F's is an excellent horror game and series.

Games made a long time ago are not automatically better then games made today. Many are objectively worse.

The quality of a game's content is more immediately important then the quality of the game's gameplay

Games being dumbed down is more of a result of developer laziness instead of marketing for the masses

Watching let's plays or gameplay of games is totally fine, especially if watching for the commentary or personality of the streamer/player in the video

Piracy is wrong not because it hurts the industry but because you don't deserve other people's work and entertainment for free.
>>
>>338089093
>FN@F's is an excellent horror game and series.

jumpscares are not horror. You get startled, not scared
>>
>>338089249

I'm sure this won't matter that I tell you this because anyone with any intelligence would have been able to look up gameplay to confirm this however;

Five Nights at Freddy's does not feature jumpscares for no reason. Jumpscares are only in the game as a punishment for losing; you'd never see a jumpscare if you play the game correctly the whole way through (at least for the first game)

Secondly your post assumes that it is not a gradient- just because something features a lot of jumpscares doesn't mean it can't also have horror/tension/dread or whatever other innumerable qualities you wish for it to have.

To say FN@F's is solely jumpscares is to downplay the game's sound and monster design, gameplay choices, the background lore, and many of the other things that make it a good franchise.

Could be anything.

Story, atmosphere, quests, what you can do, dialogue, character creation, the setting, the weapons or power ups, the enemies, etc.

For example; many people praise Resident Evil and Morrowind, both older games with extremely poor gameplay in the modern department but both games play up other aspects (resident evil being the horror and morrowind being the various magic systems and world space) as being more important than their gameplay. In fact some would say that at least for Resident Evil's sake, its poor gameplay actually REINFORCES the theme of that game being about horror and disempowerment.

The tension that comes out of the avoidance of being jump scared is legitimate horror, anon. Testing the blood in The Thing builds up to a jump scare, but it isn't cheap because of the complexity behind why the scene's constructed the way it is.

I hate the feel of the Source engine. movement and shooting always seem very clunky/floaty. I don't seem to have so much of a problem in HL2 but I can only barely stand to play TF2 and I cannot play CS:GO at all. Shooting especially in TF2 feels weightless and in every Source game the movement physics just don't seem right to me. I'm not trying to say it's unrealistic or anything because that doesn't really matter, but I like it less than Havok for example, which occasionally shits the bed but feels better to me somehow.

No. The N64 was the one that basically ruined them. Their failure to move onto new technologies allowed a complete newcomer to videogames to take over the whole industry from right under their nose.

I think the effects of that have been far more drastic and longer lasting than any mistake before, and any mistake after could be pretty cleanly connected straight to it.

The N64 still happened during the wild west of technology and had the added benefit of the pretty solid Mario/Zelda titles pumped out for it which are still classics today. I don't think it was failing to keep up against the competitors at the time, either. The Gamecube is what signaled the lack of innovation, weak exclusives, and subpar hardware trend that you see nowadays with the Wii just being a weird gimmick that took off more than it had any right to and shouldn't really be considered.

>>338088798
Your argument is a claim that BB is an artificial exclusive.
Burden of proof is in you.
It's not artificial, it was never going to be multiplat, just like Demon's Souls.

You may dispute my claim with evidence if you desire.

Halo was original going to be for Mac, MS bought it and dumped Mac support. Macs could have been the Unix-based platform to play games on, now they're hipster accessories. Who's really winning? Who's getting more games?

MS uses Halo exclusively to force fans to buy new Xboxes and even Windows versions (HL2pc with fucking vista)

From Software has mainly been a Sony supporter since PS1.

I'll not reply a second time unless you actually make sense with your claims. Baseless claims do not need a counter-argument, "Fuck you" is sufficient.

>pretty solid Mario/Zelda titles pumped out for it which are still classics today.

Yes, those are classics, but once you start to look beyond those, what else did they have?

It was basically the occasionally Nintendo title along with Rare trying to support the entire system by themselves, and that's because they had no third party support, which is a direct result of them sticking to carts while the competition was offering a medium that offered more storage space and was cheaper to produce. For any game dev at the time, the choice was a no brainer.

Gamecube was just them trying to play catch up but by then it was already too late. Sony had dethroned them and all of the third party devs had left them behind. The fact that they could no longer even put out revolutionary games like Mario 64 or OoT just made things worse.

And all of that is what ultimately lead them to try and seek out new audiences with the Wii, as they had given up on competing with Sony, and when that succeeded, they tried to catch lightning in a bottle twice with the Wii U.

I'm not saying N64 had bad games. I just think Nintendo fucked up when they designed the hardware and it ultimately fucked them up far more than the Virtual Boy or anything like that.

Devil May Cry was never a good series

1st one is a failed Resident Evil prototype
2nd one is a slow as molasses 3rd person shooter
3rd one was gimped due to ps2 being a shit machine
4th one is an unfinished pile of crap

reboot is baby's first Ninja Gaiden x Bayonetta and cashalized garbage overall

glad this series is dead.

The only thing I pulled from your terrible argument is, "Sony isn't allowed to have console exclusives because I don't like them!" No shit Uncharted 4 is going to be a PS4 exclusive. Every other Uncharted game was a Playstation exclusive, but now suddenly it's a big fucking deal for no reason. All of the God of War games were Playstation exclusives, you gonna bitch about those too? What about Jak and Daxter, was it unhealthy for those games to be Playstation exclusives back in the early 2000s? Not sure why you think a Playstation console just doesn't deserve exclusives to help sell it, but whatever.

I will give your stupid ass some credit, though. Bloodborne being a PS4 exclusive is pretty fucking retarded. Souls fans that have had easy access to their favorite franchise before now don't get it with Bloodborne because of its new found exclusivity.

Also,
>This confirms my suspicion that you are underaged, because any adult can understand and comprehend how a market works, and realize that he is not getting anything with an 'exclusive'. it's a marketing term that actually hurts him as a consumer.
I think the only one who doesn't understand the games market here is you. If the exclusive titles are good enough, they can be console sellers. It's one of the reasons stuff like the Dreamcast failed. The only like four games that it had exclusivity over when it was still alive were the Sonic Adventures, Segagaga, and Skies of Arcadia, and three of those ended up getting ported over to the GameCube.
Yeah, console exclusivity is bad for consumers for the most part, but game devs and their publishers gotta make money somehow. If you don't have that one defining game/franchise for your console, it won't sell. Look at the Ouya and tell me I'm wrong. I dare you.

The Legend of Spyro was a good reboot
>>
>>338095776
It was extremely underwhelming, especially following Meet the Medic and Meet the Spy, which were the best videos in the series.

I mean, I get that the Pyro isn't really a character you can do much with, but it seemed like the whole thing was just the one gag about how he sees the world and nothing else. The other videos had tons of little bits and fun moments the whole way through.
>>
>>338096242
Valve does (or did) really good writing, so when you strip away that, you're left with sight gags and not much else, so Meet the Pyro felt very underwhelming compared to Meet the Medic, which was probably the point where Valve should've just shut down because nothing they ever make will be as perfect as that again.

Yeah, I just remembered Demon's Souls was a PS3 exclusive after I typed all that out. Thing is, the reason Demon's Souls is a PS3 exclusive is the exact same reason that Bayonetta 2 is a Wii U exclusive. Without Sony, the game wouldn't have gotten the funding it needed to be finished; plus Sony owned the IP rights to Demon's Souls, so it makes sense that it would be a PS3 exclusive.
I suppose I should have said "its returned exclusivity." Poor phrasing and memory on my part, my bad.
>>
>>338097217
Demon's Souls being an exclusive makes sense and even Bloodborne being an exclusive makes sense. I'm 99% sure that Miyazaki didn't want Dark Souls 2 or 3 to happen, but ended up being contractually obligated to do it. Bloodborne is obviously the game he wanted to make and Sony was probably the only studio around who wasn't pressuring him to make Souls 2/3 just to cash in on the name.

It's pretty easy to see that Demon's Souls, Dark Souls 1, then Bloodborne is the man basically refining an idea to the logical extremes, the exclusivity is probably executive meddling at best and likely has nothing to do with any kind of allegiance he feels.

>Without Sony, the game wouldn't have gotten the funding it needed to be finished; plus Sony owned the IP rights to Demon's Souls, so it makes sense that it would be a PS3 exclusive.

You do know Bloodborne is in the same exact position, right? Sony is the publisher. Only reason Dark Souls went multiplat is because it was all published by Namco-Bandai and they have no reason to stick to a single console like Sony does.

Oh, actually no, I didn't. I wasn't aware that Sony owned the IP to Bloodborne. Thanks for the info m8

Well yeah, pretty much the only reason console exclusives exist in the first place is because of executive meddling. They want stuff to help make their console sell, of course they'll push for an exclusive if they can.

Sonic Unleashed was good and in ways, better than Colors or Generations.

The Werehog was solid and played solid, it was just conveyed poorly and had too much artificial extension (too much grinding, levels went on too long). The only really BAD part of the game is the QTE levels. The Sonic levels are the best the franchise has been since the 90s.

reposting this from a previous thread

gay characters in videogames isn't an inherently bad thing, but the way almost every developer goes about it IS a bad thing

progress for the sake of progress helps no one but the creator's ass which is in need of patting. it certainly doesn't help actual gay people (i'm looking RIGHT AT YOU, anthony burch)

writers forget that most, non-tumblr, non-twitter, real-life homosexuals are Anon first and a gay men second. luckily, most gays are aware that having your entire identity and personality revolve around your sexuality makes you a boring-as-fuck person, and at worse, an obnoxious one too

but writers tend to forget that and act like Dorian "Sassy Gay Friend" Pavus are the be-all end-all best representation a gay man could ask for

tl;dr gay characters aren't bad on their own but 99% of the writing that goes into them is

You obviously don't understand how free to play games have revolutionized everything.

They have created a new wave of actual competition of game development. Instead of game developers shitting out the same nonsense every year or the million brown and bloom Call of Duty clones that were rife just a few years ago; new free to play titles have created an era of creating newer, better, nicer games with lower price points.

Now a game developer has to ask himself "why would people play my game instead of league of legends?" when they are designing their game. It's a new golden age as far as I'm concerned.
