What is /v/'s thought on the video game market being overrun by flunkies from the film industry that couldn't make it, now making game stories that would be shit on in the box office but now eaten up by the 'gamer' masses that have never read a book in their life

It's not a real thing, it's just something idiots say so they have something fresh to say whilst bitching about games.

Nope, have a PS4, Wii U, 3DS, Vita, and a good PC. Fag.

Literally the only 1. 2 and onward blow the story to retarded proportions.

Drakes is great.


/v/ does this hipster thing of picking out great games, and hating on them simply because they are good, aswell as mainstream.

Perfect example: darksouls

A great game that started small, and blew up. This game was heralded for years, and now all of a sudden it gets a massive dump taken on it because it's become a mainstream game in its own right.

While I agree that drakes4 isnt some amazing graphical achievement. The story telling, ganeplay, and scenery are way above par. Easily a 9/10 game. If it were a movie "raiders of the lost ark" it would break the box office.

7/10 at best.

>linear
>on rails story
>3 chapters of filler at the start
>set pieces feature little gameplay
>the gameplay itself is derivative of the previous games in the series with little improvement
>>
>>339193641
Given the fact that the game is 90% story based. It only makes sense that it is linear and on rail. I wish it was sandboxed, but unfortunately, cinematic storytelling and open world can't exist in tandum in gaming.

The gunplay was lacking, a lot. That's the real gripe that I have with it.
>>
Eh it's a decent game. Aside from the shit stealth and shit multiplayer the gameplay is quite fun as long as you're playing on crushing. The AI surprises me at times.

The plot is very simplistic and fine for the most part, although Elena's reason to be mad at Drake is incredibly stupid.

The cast as always is very likeable. And i want to be raped by that nigress.
>>
>>339194197
So the game WASN'T a 9/10?
>>
>>339194361
I played it on hard, maybe that's why I feel differently about the game than most people.

New Devon almost made break my controller.
>>
>>339194450
No, the rock climbing made up for it, for me anyway. Its still an instant suggestion from me. Which is saying a lot.

9/10 would play again.

Just something I've come to expect from any professional reviewer of anything. Movies, games, TV it doesn't matter the mainstream reviews are almost always shills and or complete retards who know nothing about the medium its their job to review.
>>
I fucking love how butthurt /v/ gets over Funcharted
>>
>>339200432
It's actually not the worst offender on the "failed movie director, now game developer" scale. At least it has playable though linear parts. But for me all those recent Naughty Dog titles are 6/6,5 at best, and with best I mean U2, not TLoU, that was one boring "game".
>>
>>339190487
I Could never get into games like Uncharted, TLoU, Heavy Rain etc where the drive of progression is forced primarily by a plot you may or may not give a shit about. It isn't like mario or crash or something where say, the gameplay itself is the drive of the game, or the souls series where the drive is whatever the fuck you want it to be. Rather, these games seem to make you want to play for the story, like it is the only reason you're playing it, and I find that gay. The gameplay of all those titles is forgettable and to be honest so are their plots.

But they seem to be popular, which says a lot about the game industry as a whole.
>>
>>339200662
Okay m8, nice insight. I'll be sure to stop playing them because you said so
>>
>>339201165
Never tried to dissuade you anon. Play what you want and enjoy it, just don't sugarcoat it.

And again, the ND titles AREN'T the worst offender., not even close.

He's right though. I played the first 2 and I sure as hell didn't care about the writing or characters.

What is /v/‘s thoughts on /v/ being overrun by no fun allowed fuckwits trying to tell you what you should/shouldn't play?
>>
>>339202027
The point is that you don't PLAY Uncharted at all. Opinions on quality don't even enter into this. It's NOT a GAME and therefore talking about it here is inappropriate.

And a larger problem is that non-game shit like this is emblematic of everything wrong with the industry over the last decade.

I dont like the Uncharted franchise, but you are being too kind of the movie industry, Uncharted 4 as a movie, is better than stuff like Jurassic World.
>>
>>339202615

His point stands. Anybody who thinks for a second that lower framerate could be better somehow is a person who doesn't know shit about videogames. Even if you admit that your worrying was unfounded, the fact that you were worried at all marks you as clueless.

You instigate shit with so many people on the board, spam your fucking broken ass logic, and then cry wolf when people appropriately tell you to fuck off. You make the people who actually enjoy games like Bloodborne and U4 look like shit

Any effort that went into making the game more cinematic or narrative focused could have been spent increasing replayability or simply making the game better.

Uncharted and Uncharted 2 are two of my favorite games of all time. They have great set pieces, are well polished, good shooting and climbing mechanics, funny dialogue/characters, and overall are just FUN experiences. They let you fight (i.e. play the game) almost constantly, and only interrupt with a few 3 or 4 minute cutscenes, and the occasional big set piece fight (but usually combine with lots of shooting/fighting during the setpiece).

The issue with Uncharted 4 is much the issue with the fourth Indiana Jones movie- nobody really cares about Nathan Drake, or Indiana Jones. They're humorous, fun characters, but one dimensional at best. When you try to make a gripping, emotionally driven story like Last of Us out of one dimensional characters, it just doesn't work. The Last of Us works because 1. you don't have the first two hours of the game being cutscenes. The first hour is mostly scripted sequences but it serves as a good tutorial. After that, cutscenes only occur to tell story, giving you plenty of time in between to actually play the game. Characters were built with dialogue along the way, during gameplay, instead of forcing you to watch hours of cutscenes (even when the cutscenes were longer, we actually care about the characters more than because we recognize them and have played as them).

The gameplay mechanics are improved and awesome in Uncharted 4- unfortunately, there's not as much gameplay as in the first 3 games, or The Last of Us.

Uncharted 4 is not a bad game- it's just that it won't let you play the awesome gem of a game hidden underneath the constant 100% linear sections/cutscenes full of characters we have no reason to care about since they're just caricatures as opposed to real people like we see in Last of Us.
>>
>>339190487
If you don't like a game, don't buy it. Fucking simple.
