Why do you even care?

No i t's not.
Besides, it was a good game. I enjoyed Shadows of Mordor.

>>344743515
This is the sad true today: big companies aren't paying journalists anymore (unless we consider the truly biggest USA ones), all the money goes to youtubers
Then, they quote the paid youtubers on the cover of their own games
Source: vidya journo here
>>344743515
That game didn't need paid reviews, it was good on its own and now its been cheapened.
how is this new?
and you retards still follow "who's" on youtube
>>344745212
This is all GAMERGATE's fault.

why you think we are getting betas released for 60€
>>344745307
It wasn't good. It was mediocre, but at least it wasn't terrible.
>>344745571
Because people will buy them anyway?
>>344743515
I don't think it was a masterpiece but it was better then what I expected.
Quite sad really because the company had no faith in a game that would have done fine. kinda proves how out of touch most company's are with the shit going on today.
>>344743515
Audible gasp.
>>344745586
It was Arkham Middle Earth
Thing is these guys aren't games journalists or games critics.
They are just youtubers whose words don't end up in metacritic which affects devs bottom lines.
>>344743515
Fuck man, I wish they had put this much effort into the Gauntlet reboot.

No shit.
>>344745151
This is glorious nerd bants.
>>344743619
I don't but it's still annoying to cry about them every time someone wants to talk about a new game.
>>344746584
I wish there were more "power trip" games.
SoM was better at this shit than Prototype.
>>344743515
Exactly why many called from the very beginning that the whole "eceleb" fad would turn out to be the exact same fucking thing as before.
>"b-b-b-buh he's independant!!!! he's paid by views only!!!! he can actually express his own opinion unlike video game journalists who are paid by reviewers!!!!!!
Yeah right.
When does this shit finally becomes bannable and we're done with next-gen shilling?

Thank God posts on here are always "independant" huh.
>>344747509
>Get some taste
Fuck yourself, faggot.
I literally stated the game wasn't very challenging, but was a fun power trip. That's all the game is. It's a perfectly adequate video game. It's not exceptional. It's not pure shit. It's adequate.
>>344747535
Anon what the ever-loving fuck are you even going on about? Holy Christ.
>>344743619
There's not too many, but there are.
Infinite Warfare gets shilled quite a bit.
>>344747663
Why would I want to play mediocre derivative games when I could be playing good games? There's no shortage of good games if you aren't afraid of exploring unfamiliar genres and aren't allergic to old games.

It already is. If you're paid to do a video, according to FTC and ASA regulations, you legally have to disclose it in a visible way that the viewer cannot miss.
>>344743619
Counter-shills are worse though.
At least we talk about video games.
>>344743619
When the fuck has /v/ ever denied exsitence of shills, I have yet to see a tread about a new game where nobody were accused of being a shill.
>>344743515
>Apparently
that's a nice word to use in news coverage
>>344747980
>we
Isn't this illegal? You're supposed to disclose sponsored reviews.
>>344747879
I didn't mean to come off as rude, in retrospect saying "Get some taste dude" is an aggressive statement. Here's a bunch of freeware games. Some are hit & miss, most are short, but they're all free. That means someone developed the game from the bottom of their heart and released it out of love. That's cool.
>>344748059
Yes. It's against FTC rules.
Bethesda is the next to be exposed
Fallout 4 and Doom 2016 were shilled hard
>>344745151
i fucking love destiny. he's such a cheerful guy.
>>344748059
According to the FTC filing, they did disclose it, but not clearly enough (e.g. they just put "Thanks WB for the sponsorship" at the end of the video description, which nobody reads anyways)
>>344748114
>>344748059
Would it be illegal to shill on 4chan for the same reason?
Should shills be required to disclose their involvement with each post?
This post is sponsored by Electronic Arts.
>>344748083
Wow. Finally some games so simple that my small mind can count the individual pixels. Thank you for those anon.
But how am I supposed to see the physical fear in eyes made up entirely of one block?
All this wonderful passive aggression aside, might I posit a theory?
It's possible to enjoy simple power trips like Mordor and other, deeper games as well.
Thoughts on that?
>>344745504
This. I keep getting called a shill for not hating modern games. I might as well be getting paid for it.
>>344745307
>>344744975
You're missing the point
>>344748280
You don't seem to understand,they do it for free.
>>344748343
I don't. This is my full time job.
>>344748343
wishful thinking
This game will always hold a special place in my heart because it was the first game Ipiratedafter I built my budget PC to see how modern games would perform.
it's okay, because they never intended to give those reviews ;;;;v)
>>344748083
I like indie games, but you come across like a faggot that wants to force his opinion onto others
youtubers getting paid to do shit?
https://www.youtube.com/user/jackfrags
that's unheard of
http://wccftech.com/warner-bros-ftc-settlement-paid-influencers-shadow-of-mordor/
there you have it, there are no shills except those that disclose that they are actually shills. so stop accusing people of being shills you fucks
>>344748281
A power trip, huh? Well there's Dishonored and Sengoku Basara. Maybe Dynasty Warriors but I'm not sure which one to recommend. If you want a power trip, you could just play a good game on easy mode you know. It might not feel as epic knowing you could be playing on a harder setting, but when playing Shadows of Morder, you could be playing a harder game and a better game.
>>344747742
The Cod games get shilled HARD, and I mean actual shills not meme ones
A week or two before the new cods come out threads are spammed to hell and back about it, they continue till a day or 2 after release then all discussion about cod ceases till the next game comes around
Anyone who says there are no shills on /v/ is a shill themselves or around newfag who wasn't around for the horrid borderlands/scribblenauts shilling\spam
>>344748481
This is /v/

>Blink Past Everyone: The Game

Mercy anon, please. I can't take the stupid anymore.
The sad thing this probably won't even affect him. 13 year olds don't even know what a shill is and most of his other braindead fans won't even care in the slightest.
>>344748749
What about Sengoku Basara and Dynasty Warriors? I mentioned more than one game for a reason. Regardless, I would argue that Dishonored has a depth to it that makes the power trip he desires a lot more engaging. This webm demonstrates some moves that are much more interesting and fun than Shadow of Mordor's Bamham combat. Dishonored has flaws but if you want a power trip that's easy, it recommend it over them.
>>344748627
So what, we should just ban all discussion of the games you don't like?
I think the new CoD looks fucking great, and I really goddamned hope that the hints of open world we've seen turn out to be true. The only thing holding me back from diving in on a pre-order is that we haven't seen the multiplayer yet, which is pretty much the make-or-breaker when it comes to these games.
I mean come on, nigga. This shit looks stylish. My dick gets hard just thinking about all that space debris.If space combat turns out to be DFM from Ace Combat:AH, I'll be beyond mad.
>>344748627
companies need their ads to declare they're ads or they face hefty fines by the FTC. do you think they'd actually risk that?
>>344747742
I always wonder if this is some legitimate shilling or a very elaborate troll plot to make it look like it's getting shilled.
>>344749103
I wouldn't be surprised knowing how autistic some of the people in this website can be.
>>344748937
I already addressed your button mashers, faggot.
You're webm demonstrates nothing.
What you're webm demonstrates, is a choreographed sequence of events that the person recording it repeated a shitzillion times until they got it to come out that way, through trial and error.
THAT is not a power trip. That is autism. Impressive autism, but autism all the same.
A power trip is walking into a room full of bad guys and fucking their shit up so hard on a whim, that they piss their pants and run; and THAT is the one thing that Mordor does right.
>>344748189
it's already known that bethesda invited youtubers to play snapmap and multiplayer in DOOM, they then made videos about it, obviously they were paid to say nice things, it's no secret
>>344748965
Shill
>>344748993
It's an anonymous board so yeah
>>344743515
I liked the game, the movement was so fucking slick and combat felt great.
Only thing I didn't like was that I had all the upgrades I wanted about two-thirds into the game and it was a bit lacking in variety.
Was pretty cool that you could kill Orcs that had killed your friends though.
>>344749204
I don't see how choreography makes it any less impressive. The webm still demonstrates that the game has depth in its mechanics with room for creative gameplay. The webm contains lots of little tricks that can be realistically stringed together in an improvisational manner during unrehearsed gameplay. You can't argue that Dishonored doesn't have leagues more depth and freedom in this regard.
>>344745151
>It was a good boy
What
There's literally nothing wrong with "shilling" video games.
>>344749373
>Unrehearsed.
When you show me a single webm that wasn't rehearsed, I'll be impressed.
And choosing my side of an argument for me, and not point did I even begin to discuss how
>Dishonored doesn't have leagues more depth and freedom in this regard.
I don't care. It's a great game, but I'm not going to spend my entire day lining up a bunch of dumbass A.I. that can't see further than 10 feet in just the right way so that I can feel cool about myself when I murder them for a webm I want to shill on /v/, when I can do the same damned thing in Mordor in 2% of the time, and get the exact same feeling.
Take your autism somewhere else. I'm going to enjoy both games and there's nothing you can do to stop that.
>>344743515
But Mordor is a good game actually.
Nemesis system is awesome and i want to see it in all sandbox games.

>>344749551
The incendiary bolt that kills the man near the water may be impossible if not planned ahead, but things such as blinking and air strafing into a drop assassination, double adrenaline kill with a gunshot inbetween the two swings, possessing someone between you and an arc pylon to kill that person, and sliding to dodge a sword swing, those are totally doable in normal play if you are familiar with them. What makes you think it's so impossible? Dishonored isn't a hard game. It has nothing on things like Devil May Cry or Quake.
>>344749689
Nemesis was pretty cool until you got the mind control power and then it became a game about a ghost getting his own army of orcs to fuck with Sauron. Also it was made trivial by just how easy it was to kill enemies in that game and I had to go out of my way to either job as hard as I could or simply stop performing executions in the hopes that I would get a rival.

That doesn't look like shilling desu. You might as well say Sony threads that start with those compile list of exclusives are shills as well
Even if Youtubers are shills, at least they show mostly real nonscripted and unedited gameplay.
Which is better than most game news blogs to be honest.

to their detriment

I would say it's the later.
And it's gotten really fucking popular to do recently (see: NMS threads and the current Necropolis thread going right now)
>>344743515
Why? That game was pretty fun, didn't need shilling
>>344743619
If you wanted to sell games why would you come to /v/? It only makes sense for indie-games that need a niche to survive. In the grand scheme of things /v/ is nothing. All 'shilling' is ironic and so is a good amount of 'counter-shilling' posting. I am 40% sure that you are posting ironically too. My post is also somewhat ironic because I know that posting in this thread will accomplish nothing but I hate /v/ and want shit to rise to the top.
>>344743515
Im probably not remembering this correctly, but didnt totalbiscuit talk about this on this very game, about how you couldnt get a review copy unless you signed a contract saying youd give it no lower than an 8.5 or something
>>344757662
>In the grand scheme of things /v/ is nothing.
In terms of quality discussion that is true, but in terms of people who visit it can't be looked over. Even negative backlash on /v/ can be consider a success for shills as it keeps the games name in peoples minds as /v/ will keep on bashing something long past its relevancy and someone may just buy it to see if it is really bad or not.
>>344757829
He did. This is just the FTC catching up and doing something, which caught the media's attention.
>>344759074
>that MLP faggot on every tweet
Its funny cause Shadow of Mordor would have gotten 8.5 range reviews anyway.
If it dropped the shitty linear "sandbox" missions stuff every other sandbox does and went full in on its Nemesis system for progression it probably would have scored 9s legitimately.
>>344747985
Get off this board, you're either too infrequent or too new.
I thought moot banish all you embarrassments to the human race to 8gag?
WHY are you stupid niGGers still here?
>>344743515
Misleading and old as fuck. People were talking about this when it was current. I don't know why it's suddenly come back up other than for clickbait purposes. Pewdiepie doesn't normally even do reviews and wrote in the description that the video was promoted by Warner. The other Youtubers who participated in this are literal nobodies. More quality research from The Verge.
>>344743619
>niche board that hates everything that's popular
Who would waste their money on shills to come here? I would pay shills to shill under YouTube videos or on Facebook but not fucking 4chan.
>>344758821
>but in terms of people who visit it can't be looked over
But you can look over it.
The money you paid to get shills to advertise on here would be infinitely better spent on platfroms that don't even know shills exist (normiebook, reddit, youtube).
Also the shill's posts get deleted after a time which is stupid for a marketing aspect
>this makes journalists even more useless and they are mad enough about it to write articles bitching about it
KEK
>>344747115
This. Sometimes we just want to genuinely discuss a game we're interested in and not just be all negative about it.
>>344749689
>In call of duty you can crouch behind the cover and go to take a piss, what's the point?
Not in WaW cause they'll infinetely spawn and chuck grenades in your direction until you move forward.
>>344759974
The gook let them back in.
>>344760279
>I don't know why it's suddenly come back up other than for clickbait purposes.
because the FTC finally reacted
>>344760472
>Who would waste their money on shills to come here?
dont know man, shilling on twitter or kikebook sounds more logical, but at the same time I remember there was no Fallout 4 threads 1 week after launch just like with any Assassins creed or COD.
>>344760657
>The money you paid to get shills to advertise on here would be infinitely better spent on platfroms that don't even know shills exist
That would imply they get paid a considerable sum. Shills usually get paid peanuts since they make a post or two and leave while the rest of the thread does the work for them. It isn't hard to get /v/ to keep a thread bumped if you use the right buzzwords or post the right picture. Even if it gets deleted (after like an hour since mods are slow) it still got exposure.
>>344749103
most likely trolling because people will do anything for a handful of (You)'s
>>344760871
well that's unsurprising considering Japan's long history of sexism and bad treatment of women.

>>344743515
Shadow of Mordor is one of the best games in the past 10 years, so I don't care.

He's the most subscribbed person on Youtube with over 45 million subscribers. To put it in perspective, nearly the entirey of Spain is subscribed to him if you wanted to compare it to population density.
Obviously game companies are gonna give him free shit or ask of him to shill their products.
>>344761375
It is, but the FTC's ruling is new news.
>>344761164
Damn, 10 years of shit games.

Who would've thought?
>>344761164
>it's ok to be deceived
>>344761164
>What a bunch of sensationalist nonsense
But it is not. It doesn't matter if the game was good or bad, the fact that they were being vague/hiding that it was sponsored is illegal. Outing this kind of behaviour will always be a good thing.
>>344757662
>In the grand scheme of things /v/ is nothing.

>>344761597
I wasn't deceived, it's a great game.

It is news that hit the main stream media because the FTC made a decision. So is more the conclusion of old news.

You have multiple videogames and you can compare them, that means some of them are shit and some of them are good. If you lacking in competence and intelligence, that doesn't mean it's gonna be easier for you, it's just mean you are stupid and don't know shit. Nobody cares about how much fun you have. I can have even more fun with simple wooden stick, but that doesn't mean it's better than your lovely shit game.

The only recent shill we uncovered is the microsoft tech support demonstrating some VR device.
and yes it was a literal Pajeet
That reminds me still have to finish the Bright Lord DLC. Stopped because it was jarring going from an unstoppable Juggernaut that could do anything to a guy who died in like 3 hits.

So let's players take it up the ass for money? We knew that already.

It's illegal stuff in most countries. Any american could get sued by the FCC.

"who's" Celebrities are celebrities. More people under 25 know Pewdiepie than Ben Affleck
>>344760472
it takes 10 seconds during a lunchbreak to shillpost. It's not like it's a huge expense.
>>344754531
he doesnt review shit. he doesnt even need to state his opinions. He just need to scream, and his fanbase do the buying.
>>344743515
So why isn't GamerGate all over this? This is the actual thing happening that they claimed happened with DQ that turned out not to have happened at all. This on the other hand is actual flat out corruption and bribery on a massive scale. I thought this was what GG was about.

I thought the main reason to shill on /v/ is the fact that you can post anonymously compared to other forums that require you to sign up and you can be spotted with "Oh that Benslag267 guy just opened his account and only has one post talking positive about this game" A shill can post every hour and samefag the entire thread knowing that the info is out there and the thread will safely 404 in a hour.
Only because people jump back into the archives and notice the same copy paste post that most shills are spotted.
>>344760904
could be shill. but most of the threads are shitposts. How is HATE NEWSPAPER and codfield war advertising?
>>344765878
Because none of the people exchanging money are women, presumably.
>>344765986
there are always women in any pr department :^)
>weebs are still triggered

The industry is going to take a massive hit when that man dies, like him or hate him. I can't watch his videos, but he's one of the only steam curators I feel like I can trust due to the assblasting he'd get if he ever took money from a dev.
>>344758821
>but in terms of people who visit it can't be looked over
It absolutely can. /v/ has zero influence on industry trends or how successful a game will be.
>>344766056
>multiplat everybody play wins in an oscar mockup
is this a surprise to anybody?
>>344766178
/v/ has a good influence in the genre it likes that nobody else do: jrpg, character action games, crpg, fighting game, vns
>>344765602
Keep dreaming. Blockbusters are seen by the entire world, only kids knows so called e-"celebs"

How do you know "GamerGate" isn't all over this?
Did you go to 4+4chan or something?
>>344766408
What? Everybody know Pewdiepie. He makes 12 millions a year for a reason. Celebrities are people who are known. Are you saying that 100 000 000 people knowing who Pewdiepie is and follow him does not make him a celebrity?
Is that game even worth the 5 dollars it's regularly on sale for?
>>344766408
ignorance is bliss you should get out more

「LITERALLY ME」
>>344743515
Not going to lie, the nemesis system was easily one of the best things in recent gaming. I liked the Arkham-style combat of the game, but besides those two points, the story was godawful and the locations were far too boring.
>>344743515
Now you can understand how some people were defending arkham knight on pc
>>344745212
Nice try kotaku

absolutely savage

Wondering why I don't see shilled games on my catalog....
Oh filters nm
>>344743619
Yea no shit.
It's also a part of your job as a shill to deny that you're a shill or that there ever is any.
It makes perfect sense.
But to those who aren't shills and don't believe it, you're retarded. There's been proven cases in the past.
>>344767493
>I liked the Arkham-style combat of the game
I can shit on assassins creed and batman games all day for destroying combat in third person action videogames, but at least in those two you can use different weapons, moves and gadgets. Especially in batman games, where you can make combat looks fucking amazing if you stop pressing Y all the time and start using all that shit. I guess it's just shit game design which doesn't encourage people to do so, but thats another story. The point is shadow of mordor dumb down that shitty combat system the most. Most people don't want to play videogames anymore and do shit, it's just watching movie for them. Of course they gonna like it, it's not trying to insult their intelligence. It's not challenging anymore.
>>344769708
I refuse to believe in shills existing on /v/. What I do believe in however, are people baiting for easy (you) , doing it for free, in this place that is automatically paranoid of shills, despite the logical foolishness of it.
>>344757662
Do you remember the contribution the marketing company Babel Media made to the Driv3r scandal? The only reason we know of Babel Media and their quote "Guerilla marketing experts" are because they repeatedly used accounts that would only post about Driv3r. If they were on a site that had loads of users and didn't need accounts? We'd never know about them.
This Is why I only shill for Hillary.
Dont mix business with pleasure kids
>>344745504
I wonder how one becomes a shill.
>get paid to advertise a game you don't even have to like
sounds nice.
>>344771256
It's also illegal and can result in jail time.
all i got from this thread is dungeons of mordor is good clean fun and only die hard purist gamers are offended
>>344772623
What I got from this thread is that "power trip" became a buzzword for braindead games.
>>344757662
/v/ actually has a lot of influence on video game opinion, believe it or not. It's not instant, but if you see a popular opinion start to emerge on /v/, a couple of months later you'll see it being reproduced on other websites (namely reddit, which is huge).
Also /v/ is anonymous, and you don't get banned for shilling. It's literally free marketing and advertisement for MILLIONS of people who access /v/ every day. It doesn't even matter if people like it, because people disliking your product causes friction, which in turn makes other people create threads complaining about that game, which in turn gives it more exposition.
Just look at Undertale, Minecraft or Human Revolution.
