I feel sorry for anyone who tried playing this on the hardest difficulties the first time around. Like all Naughty Dog games, bullets tend to go through your cover. On Grounded, it's instant death.

I'm surprised that all of these are accurate. I've played and enjoyed every single one (save for TLoU) and while they're all great games, none of them are GOTYAY best game ever incredible so great wow revolutionary. Plus they all have massive autistic sperglord fanbases that claim they're the second coming of God.

I'm proud of you, /v/, you did good.

There was plenty of game there when I played it. It's just the actual gameplay is very mediocre and uninteresting most of the time.

What did Dark Souls do that made it worthy of so much more praise than Demons Souls?

Also, adding to the overrated games list, Bloodborne. Its a good Souls game but its not revolutionary.

Dark Souls had no atmosphere, a pretty basic story relative to the other Souls games, and wasn't impressive from a tech standpoint either.

Bloodborne and Dark Souls 2 did both better, albeit with many questionable design decisions in DkS2.

dark souls has no atmosphere
What? The game did the perfect job at recreating desperate middle age periods with curses and rotting lore. gtfo just because it isn't green and lush like witcher 3 doesn't mean it has no atmosphere
>>
>>342443343
I've got probably 60 in on it and, eh.

It's a superior game to Fallout 3 by far, but its not a really memorable or groundbreaking experience. The writing and dialogue are awkward, the game itself tends to drag on slowly.

It's a great game. But that's not really the point of the thread, yknow? It's overrated games. A game can be one of the best games ever released and STILL be overrated and overhyped. Its more about "what games generate the highest amount of autist-tier sperg praising" rather than "what games suck".

By normies? Yes.
By /v/? No.
If anything /v/ under rates it and labels it as a movie game when its not. Its a solid game that while not super deep is a very good game and with gameplay that matches the setting very well.
>>
>>342443550
A game can be good and overrated, you know.

>>342444003
Yep, I sure felt the rich atmosphere with the bland, repetitive environments that completely change from one area to another. There was no cohesion and the "world" they were trying to build felt like a bunch of separate worlds lazily stitched together.
>>
>>342444052
But it's true, these games are all buggy and the majority have bad gameplay. Not shit but very overrated.

Do you actually know what it means to be cohesive?

There are several places all over the game where you can see the next or previous area, or multiple areas and see how they physically connect in the world. Going from one place to another feels natural, even when you have big shifts like Ash Lake from the Great Hollow, because it's contextualized in the world and you can see why that happened.

The only ones that don't mesh with the environments that lead in to or out of them are Undead Asylum and the Painted World

And the DLC area but there wasn't really any getting around that

Most people rate it behind 1, 2, and sometimes 5.

Half Life 1 really is so much better than 2.
