>playing FPS on a pad is good they said
>>338259676
You don't even need to be good to finish hard games. I suck at godhand yet I played it, beat it and enjoyed it. "git gud" is more of a response to people blaming game mechanics on their own failures. even on /v/ you don't get derided with it unless you're being a lil bitch and unfairly blaming the game
>>338259901
like this is a meme right? nobody plays that badly who has played vidya before...
RIGHT?
>asking that reviewers not be complete garbage at video games is the same as demanding they be the best in the world

That's not really that bad.
It's not "gaming journalism" that's the problem, it's the nature of journalism as a whole. I'm a professional journalist and honest to god the climate of the industry right now is fear and loathing (no pun intended). The older generation looks at us younger guys and shouts "save us!" Like we've got the magic bullet to competing with sensationalist bullshit and STILL being profitable.
You can't fix "gaming journalism" without first fixing journalism as a whole.
God almighty what a time to be alive. I picked the wrong time to love journalism, that's for sure.
>>338260419
sounds p based desu
he's not even a reviewer
also he created JAZZ JACKRABBIT
game was fun as fuck
>>338260485
User score isn't any more objective. People who think that the game has inflated positive score just try to outweight it with minimal scores, they don't post the score they think the game really deserves.
>>338259450
i guess that's true, you don't have to be good at vidya to enjoy them

>>338259450
it blows my mind that people get paid for this stupid shit
I don't think every game need to be dark soul. The new Kirby game is easy as fuck but I'm still having fun with it. On the other hand I don't think every game has to compromise to conform to every skill level.
People need to remember not every game has accommodate you 100%. It's ok to walk away from a game that's too hard for you to beat.
I fucking suck at RTS games and I hate that I can't get into a entire genre but I don't expect every new one to have a super casual difficulty
>>338259450
anyone is welcome to be shit at video games

>>338260253
The KID one, like, okay there are weird mini games that could be seen as dodgy by some people but the surrounding game wasn't that great.
The Bayo 2 one pisses me off more, they fully acknowledge that it's "better than the first" and how fantastic the mechanics are, but give it a 7.5 because it has a sexy woman in it. That's the main negative point in their conclusion that they stress three times, apparently enough to knock the game down to a 7.5

>>338260008
This. My gf can't stand dark souls and Bloodborne, but when I watch her play she has no patience to learn the spacing, the timing, all the tools and weapons available, and the essence of those games is you have to learn to play them on their terms. The games aren't bad: she just wants to do whatever she wants because that's what she wants out of games, and these are games that demand you learn them, rather than just letting you stumble through.
I think a lot of these "journalists" are really just frustrated and embarrassed that they aren't the target demographic for a change, and they are so accustomed to touring through games however they want that they can't comprehend what people could possibly enjoy about a game that's more than an inch deep. They like the amusement park Zelda adventure, not the challenge of exploring and mastering something through exploration and patience. They can't imagine resistance and delayed gratification are satisfying because they just want to "play a game," not expend effort.

>>338261306ill do it, have this
>>338261050
People will feel like they wasted their time and/or money if a game is too hard for them and they're unable or unwilling to get good enough to enjoy it. I don't personally agree with that mindset, I quite enjoy the process of learning and overcoming a game, but especially for casual players I understand where they're coming from.
>>338260235
Where have you been?
>>338261131
>but the surrounding game wasn't that great.
Yes it was. The game is fantastic, the only real criticisms you can level at it is it's not DMC and it's not 60fps (solvable on PC).
>>338259450
But I'm terrible at DS3. I'm not enjoying the game because I'm not good at it. I need to get good before I can enjoy the game.

Don't act like the user score is any more reflective of the game than the critic score
These threads always make me sad.
In my childhood I dreamt of a video game related job. In my ignorance I thought I had to learn to program to accomplish that.
Back then I didn't realize that making video games has many different aspects to it, and game developers are more than just programmers, for example there are artists involved too.
And even in my wildest dreams I couldn't imagine there would be a time, when some people are PAID TO PLAY vidya and write about it.
I could have been one of those people, instead of those bitter entitled nu-males, who hate the very games they're supposed to play.
And here I am now, working at a nuclear research institute, coding some high voltage module controlling software.

>>338261463
The combat wasn't particularly fleshed out with it being pretty lacking in combos, the plot was a confusing mess but not in a cool usual Suda 51 kind of way, just largely incoherent, bosses weren't great.
Is PC gamer the last good video game "publication?"
They are pretty based
>>338261748
I'd argue that you can fit Gone Home on a horror list
If you play it without knowing the plot it makes you think the game is a horror, gradually ramping up the dread until you realise that all of the horror stuff was just incidental details
There's the ghost stuff, the red hairspray in the bath that looks like blood, the secret passages, the dark lighting
A big part of what actually works about GH is playing with your expectations
>>338259450
This guy is a faggot, but I will say that the opposite end of the spectrum is just as bad.
I used to play a small indie halo-like shooter, which had a small group of 12-year-olds who thought themselves hardcore competitive gamers. The developers used to be pretty open about taking criticism and suggestions for the game, but eventually it reached the point where every post on the forums would be shouted down by a horde of elitist faggots who thought their shit didn't stink. One of the children in particular literally refused to consider your points in an argument unless you could beat him in a 1v1.He spoke in 4chan jargon too so I know he's one of you faggots. Today the forums are dead because the competitive kiddies chased everyone else off and then moved to CS:GO.
Again, I'm definitely not defending the mouthbreathers who think every game should have skippable everything, but the YOU'RE NOT A PRO-LEVEL PLAYER SO YOU DON'T GET AN OPINION mentality really needs to fuck off. Surely there is middle ground between the two.
>>338259450
I see Walker is still mad about Hyper Light Drifter.
>>338259450
This is unfortunately how a lot of kids these days are raised. They are not taught about failure and the fact that some people are just bad at some things. Most of them never fail anything (even when they do) and even if they actually do fail they're just told they got an A for effort or some other bullshit to hide the fact that they failed.
It seems the people raised like this are starting to become adults now and are trying to apply this same logic to video games. They need to fuck off.

>>338259901
Literally me when I first played an FPS with a controller. Man, fuck this, why do people put up with that?
>>338261896
OP and this are essentially the same problem.
Games having watered down mechanics and games catering only to a small part of the community are both the result of the failure of the developers' integrity.
Instead of simply making the game true to their initial vision of the game, they start to please a certain demographic, or even worse, trying to please everyone.
>>338261892
How real is this?
>>338259901
To be honest, this is how I would be playing too if I had to play with a controller.
>>338261725
Back in the day, being a programmer and a game dev were pretty much the same thing, but obviously visual expression has gotten so complex simple art won't cut it anymore (unless you're indie, and even then it's a toss up), so yeah things change. Kinda like space invaders, shoot where they're going to be, not where they are, not so easy though.
It's hilarious how people hate RPS because that blacklist told people they aren't journalists but love the actual journalism they've done like that Molyneux interview
>>338261885
For the perceived horror elements of the game to work you have to go in absolutely blind. That doesn't make it a horror game, that makes it false advertising. P.T. is horror, any of the first person exploration games are horror, classic resident evil and silent hill are horror - gone home, just like dear esther and everything else by the chinese room, are guided museum trips.

How's about some quality journalism.
>>338262470
It makes me sad, is what it is. Journalism is incredibly fulfilling for me. I'm an idealist, I know, but I still have this vision of this noble truth bringer, this cigarettes and coffee sorta guy who lives and dies by the validity of his word. The kinda journalism you read about in your history classes.
There's still an incredible need for journalism. We saw that with the Snowden leaks, and recently with the Panama Papers. We have a duty so important to our country that there are stipulations in the Constitution that apply specifically to us.
And it's all changing. I don't know where this ride may take me, or if it will ever end, but I'm not ready to get off Mr. Jefferson's wild ride just yet.
>>338262530
Jesus man, fucking beautiful
>>338262241
But it is, just like The Evil Withins marketing campaign showing only the mansion bits and forest exploration which fooled me into thinking the game was set in a slightly science fiction'y reality like the classic Resident Evil titles. I felt completely betrayed when i realized that the whole game is set in the angsty teenage killers mind where nothing really makes sense and the whole level can change at any time.
>>338262139
The game didn't cater to them, that was the thing. The developers wanted something fun and casual like Halo 3, and the vocal majority wanted a Halo 1/2 clone where every fight is a boring long range pistol or sniper duel. the developers tried to balance the two visions, got so much shit for it that they practically got chased off of their own forums.
>>338262774
At one point in the recent past I thought that Vice could be the gonzo journalism of our generation, but boy, was I wrong.
>>338262530
I understand, should have been fired for being his passive aggression.
>>338261446
Didn't he say that he just wasn't interested in the movie and pointed out stuff that wasn't just "I dislike female ghostbusters" and said that he doesn't see a point in watching the remake so he wasn't going to see it? Because that's not a boycot, that's not seeing something because it has no interest in you...
>>338262530
Do you have the other one, too? I think it was Ikea?
>>338262868
For awhile I really thought Vice was bringing some decent journalism to the table (because it's not just about breaking news stories, but telling stories), but much like you, THAT dream died.
>>338262934
He didn't even mention the female cast, at all.

They literally made that up. I'm sure a few people were upset, but there wasn't some huge outcry from white males.
I think it's kind of a dumb feature, but I would still play the game if it was good. It's not like I really would see myself anyway.

I read the first 3 paragraphs and i can tell you its not worth reading. However I do recommend you check out the fast facts video they posted with the review, where you can learn all sorts of fascinating facts about the game such as the fascinating fact that it came out on friday may 13th
The fact that "writers" have made "articles" on that subject is fucking embarrassing in itself. There is nothing more clickbaity than "This person you may or may not know has an opinion about this controversial topic"

How come there is no alternative to these shill / clickbait based blogs that is also a sustainable business model?
At least one site?
Same is with movies. Look at how Rotten Tomatoes pushes the agenda of cultural marxism by giving extremely low 'metascores' to doubleplus ungood crimethink works. In advance.
What's worse, now ecelebs are starting to have more clout than sites that didn't put personality in front of the video game.
This whole thing is ridiculous. If someone was know for being awful at cooking, would you accept them as a food critic? No. In fact, most food critics are former chefs.
If you're bad at video games, find something else to critique.

There are two sustainable business models for written content:

Nobody wants to pay a subscription for quality written content, so in the end I guess we get what we deserve.

Gaming skill has nothing to do with it, and I guarantee you 99 percent of /v/ has no SKILL to accurately understand a video game. You don't know how orthogonal projection works, you have no idea what anisotropic filtering is, how the parallax model in a certain video game was made, how the animation influences response etc. It's a highly technical medium so people sidestep it into "feels" and "30fps lol" nonsense.
Structuralism is the only objective approach to video game criticism, this is - in terms of symbolic significance, literary, aural, whatever merit - an infantile medium with extremely simplistic "messages". It needs to be judged by the umbrella term TECHNOLOGY and when you educate yourself in things that matter you can clearly see that games are getting worse and have less features than those released 30 years ago; look at western indie scene who didn't quite reach the lofty heights of fucking NES video games.

Get out.
>>338263705
What about The Times
>>338262934
>has to justify not watching a movie
this is where it's wrong, nothing more.
He shouldn't have to justify himself or his opinions and beliefs to others that think it's wrong.
>>338263925
That's not true, sperg. If people wanted to read introspective articles about video games there would be enough clicks to make money.
Subscription based model is instant suicide and it takes a special kind of retard to pay to read stuff online that don't bring him material profit in some way.
>>338264059
Here's the part he left out.

Do you understand what "perfect" means?
>>338262173
I just use RPS these days because I'm used to them, been visiting them for years. And they actually write some really pretty good articles and editorials, most of the time.
>>338264247
Read less books and instead self-reflect, you are a literate retard who has too much self-worth. After you get over yourself, then go back to studying, but as it is, you're holding yourself back.
>>338261080
I still can't believe these people have jobs as gaming journalists.
>>338264434
Okay I guess no game deserves a perfect score by your retard logic.
>>338262117
>>338262152
>>338263425
The question is, why are you playing with a controller?
>>338264447

You're a retard for using a sjw site.
>>338264073
>not being a redditor
seriously man?
What's stopping you from changing things?
1. Start a wordpress blog or even a tumblr, whatever format suits you best
2. Write five pages in Word EVERY DAY on ANY topic that's video game related
3. Don't falter; 5 pages it is, you have to finish it.
4. Publish it daily
5. Enjoy your ~10 readers in the next two years.

Really? I don't read it but I thought they were still alright. At least they don't just consistently support one party.
How about Reuters

I didn't say I'm capable of accurately criticising a video game though, I have no idea what some of the settings do even after I read the wiki.
>>338264313

Did I ever say otherwise?

This is one of the funniest things from him. He went to visit Wargaming office in Russia http://www.pcgamesn.com/world-of-warships/wargaming-saint-petersburg

Adblock can't save you for the horrible clickbait articles and bullshit narratives.
>>338264520
definitely not GoW form that review

Lol, I love how he tried to be clever with that grammar remark.

>these people don't realize that by buying these parody hats they support the worst of capitalism (outsourcing) which is more damaging to their welfare than anything else.
Always makes me kek.
>>338264531
Well, it's mostly just Walker, really. Rossignol, Meer, Smith, and Gillen aren't that bad.
RIP Gillen ;_;
>>338264046
Those words are a reference to the Orwellian concept of language changed with cognitive dissonance. The SJWs make up these oxymoron phrases because their ideology is at it's core hypocrisy only meant to support their 'side' and no one else.
>eg: I can call you a disgusting white male and keep you out of this company, but I'm not racist for judging you by your skin color. That's "reverse-racism," and it doesn't exist!

>>338264650
You didn't really say anything, true.
These faggots think games are nothing more than interactive experiences. An interactive experience isn't a game. I can go to the Discovery Science museum and have an interactive experience about how earthquakes work. That's not a fucking game.
Games have lose conditions. These lose conditions create skill curves. That's the point of them.

inb4 not greentext cause i suck at it

What game is this?

How's life, icycalm?
>>338264805
Cultural marxism is one of those phrases.
>>338264803
Do yourself a favor. Start going to nichegamer.net and gematsu.com from now on instead of RPS.
>>338263735
>Look at how Rotten Tomatoes pushes the agenda of cultural marxism by giving extremely low 'metascores' to doubleplus ungood crimethink works
What
>>338264635
I-I also missed that Ruby the first time around.
But at least I didn't make a big deal out of it.

Oh christ my sides
>>338264816
That still won't save you from the sjw clickbait articles and shitty narrative.
Anyone have the gif of anita sarkeesian flailing a controller around try to use it?
>>338264901
Cultural marxism wasn't in full vogue when Orwell was around, its current form mostly stems from continental "philosophy" embodied by various French shitters that gained foothold in America. Its original form is Jewish intelligentsia emigrating to the USA but most of it today was formed by the frogs.
>>338264572
Reuters is news, not so much journalism.
And perhaps I'm being too harsh on The Times, it's not complete shit at all. But if you chose to read it exclusively you'd experience strange gaps in your knowledge of current events where major news stories that conflicted with certain interests simply wouldn't make it into print.
>>338264887
I believe it was Ys: The Oath in Felghana. Right at the start of the game too.
>>338264440

I haven't followed this shitty drama but now I really want to know who played for Polygon.

Already have, mate. That's my trio of vidya news: RPS, nichegamer and gematsu (/v/ too, obviously). RPS's coverage is significantly different from the other 2, so until I can find a better substitute I'm sticking with it.
>>338264531
I only look at Tim Stone, infact if I try to find a wargame he's usually written about it. Don't browse the site regularly though.
>>338262372
You point a gun using an aiming reticle and then click on the trigger button to go shooty shooty.
Although it's not a first person shooter. It's an over the shoulder shooter. Why are over the shoulder shooters so comfy on controller?
>>338264938
1. Cherrypick 'critics' with an anti-art agenda
2. Set yourself up as an industry standard in movie reviews
3. Consumer thinks "should I watch this movie?" and see that it's 90 percent "Rotten"
4. Some "criticism" of the movie states that there are too many white men in it. Some states that men shouldn't make movies.
5. Consumer watches something else
>>338259901
I can forgive being bad at the game, but that was just hilariously bad.

Yo what
Also BBC is pretty good

The phrase, not the supposed phenomenon.
