Bitch, even Black Ops III is fucking better.
I'm playing Fallout3.

Same fucking reason. Gave up on that too. Now I can only play old ass games and I can't stand to play them unless I'm on drugs or drunk.
>>24155039
it's the same old shit, don't worry.
Nothing to see there. Keep being productive.
>>24155039
It's not even an RPG anymore, you're not missing anything
Games have become shit anyways.
Unless it's a main AAA title or a one time indie, don't expect anything spectacular.
Last of Us was the last game released nor based on previous titles that was good and that was two years ago.
>>24155039
I'm not playing fo4 but it's only because I'm a poorfag
>>24155039
I will try it when a crack comes available.
>tfw spending $ on vidya
I don't know...I got bored of video games for the better half of this year, but I turned on my xbox and saw Catherine was on sale so I bought it on impulse; just to have something new to play. I ended up spending 20 hours on it this weekend playing through it all. But now I feel as if I'm burnt out video games for a bit. Good game though; I don't know maybe I should just start playing weeb games they seem funner.
Better to just do everything in moderation not quitting things cold turkey. My 2 cents anyways.
BAZINGER, SMELL MY FEET SHELDON -_________________-
You have years until another fallout game is released
Don't be a chump who buys into hype.
Fallout 4 is terrible
>>24156767
this tbhfam
I'll save my hype for something worth getting hyped for like the next tes game, I'll probably have enough money to get all the useless preorder shit by then
>>24155039
I'm not interested, because I played Fallout 3 and it fucking sucked. Why are people hyped for this?
>>24156584
Ones been available for quite some time now.
>>24156902
>Why are people hyped for this?
Normies gonna normie. I'm planning on playing it at some point but I'm certain that after Skyrim every Bethesda game is going to be dumbed down shit pandered at the dude nerds lmao crowd.
It's okay OP, it looks like shit anyways. I'm in the same situation you're in and I don't even care about new games anymore. I'm not even sure if that spoiler that keeps on going around is real or not, it probably is. What a depressing world we live in where the plots of multimillion dollar stories have become so predictable that people were guessing it with 100% accuracy from just the reveal trailer. It was either that or you secretly being an android, Bethesda is so bad at being creative.
>>24156902
because fallout 3 didn't sucked at all
The only games I've gotten really into in the passed few years were
Arma 3
Elite: Dangerous
and Metal Gear Solid V
Funny thing is that all of them are slow, repetitive, and require a lot of patience. But I love building up my mother-base/ship. And in Arma, I just love flying choppers and transporting people; makes me feel good like I'm contributing, since I suck at first-person shooters and die too fast in games like BF and CoD.
>>24156957
I sure hope not, but it certainly seems to be headed in that direction
fucking normies
>>24156970
>I like it so it's impossible for it to be objectively shit
When will this meme end?
>>24156970
The only thing FO3 did right was atmosphere. The story is so fucking nonsensical. Still today, I can't understand FO3's story.
New Vegas is better in every measurable way
>>24157066
>i don't like it so it must be objectively shit
You baited me good, hypocrite faggot.
>>24157131
>The only thing FO3 did right was atmosphere.
Very true, but I fucking loved it. I can't tell you at all what the story was, but I remember a lot of the sidequests, like blowing up Megatown for that traitorous Ghoul fucker, taking out a whole city of raiders to free some sex slaves, and those annoying children in Little Faplight.
>>24156970
garbage shooting mechanics...which is what you spend most of the game doing
world is fucking barren and nothing but grey all over with hideous green tint
the apocalypse happened 200 years ago but it looks like it happened a fucking month ago
the loading screens and shit were so lame. muh retro futuristic meme.
>>24157066
shitness factor isn't objective.
examples:
hitler
abba
michael jackson
forrest gump.
There's no such thing as objectivity
>>24157131
never tried new vegas but I liked fallout 2 and 3
>>24157142
I like Fallout 3 too, but it's a bad game. If you cannot accept this then you need to get the fuck out normie scum. Don't berate me for not giving you a real argument tonight, there's literally thousands of threads on /v/ where people like you have been proven wrong time and time again. Fallout 3's shittiness is an objective fact, get over it.
My favorite part of the Fallout 4 was when you have to save either Roman or your girlfriend at the end.
>>24157199
>There's no such thing as objectivity
yes yes postmodern goy objectivity doesnt exist
>>24157237
I seriously hope you saved Roman, and not the virgin slut.
>>24157187
It's interesting. Fallout 3 follows the old Good Vs Bad style of most Bethesda games but there is ONE quest which sneaks in a moral lesson.
In the Tenpenny Tower quest, if you allow the ghouls into the tower they eventually kill all the humans in retaliation. It's an interesting little commentary on Human Bias. Just because someone is poor, doesn't mean they're morally in the right.

Refute these points, we're waiting.
>>24157400
>meme tier writing with le wacky characters!
honestly, this is what makes me want to play it.
probably won't finish it, but it should be fun for a couple of hours
>>24155039
Most games aren't worth playing anymore. They casualized the shit out of them which took out all the fun. The few games worth playing nowadays are grand strategy games.
MGSV was the first game I got hyped for in a long timeand it was complete shit.
All my favourite franchises are dead or dying. I can't find anything new to be excited about it. Fuck it, I need a new hobby.
>>24157643
I don't understand how people could not like MGSV. Were you expecting a good story or something? It's fucking Kojima; it's always going to be the same wacky stupid shit.
I still fucking loved roaming around Kabul/South Africa and doing side missions, taking down outposts simultaneously with Quiet. She was an amazing sidekick, despite being a terrible character. I loved when I would get spotted unprepared, and then I though I was fucked, but from out of nowhere the enemy's head would just explode. She had my back, and I had hers.
No interest in it.
>>24155473
Damn early Minecraft was the fucking shit
Playing on random /b/ servers before the community turned into cancer incarnate
Shit was cash
>>24155039
What are you doing instead of videogames? Videogames certainly aren't productive, but between browsing 4chan and playing videogames there isn't much of a difference, fallout 4 might actually be a better choice because all the normies are playing it and it would give you something to talk to them about.
>>24158401
I liked that wacky stupid shit though. At the very least, I expected a fucking conclusion.
And besides that, the level design sucked, and the missions were boring and repetitive. The gameplay was fantastic, but it was wasted.
I'll play it when it's $2.99 on Steam in a couple years. Even then it will probably sit in my library uninstalled for some time.
>>24155039
I'm waiting until the season pass is over. Bugs will be fixed,the game'll be cheaper and the modding scene should have some good stuff by then
>>24155039
I didn't buy it because I'm still busy with MGSV, and now,CoD.

The only ones worth playing are older than 2005.

It's pretty much the same thing but I don't need to upgrade my computer

At least you can hold convos with normies about those... unlike video games
>>24158962
Get a better computer already, Jesus Christ.

Funnily enough it's actually the exact opposite. Video games are an incredibly common hobby, especially amount the awkward 20 year old white guy field that most people I see are in.

I finished Tri Force Heroes the other day, it was pretty fun.
https://a.uguu.se/vijpig_staffcredit.ry.32.dspadpcm.mp3
I stopped playing.
I mean once in a while I'll play a game I never beat in my childhood like Super Mario Bros 3 (with savestates) but I haven't bought anything new aside from a humble bundle just because Gamemaker Pro wad included.
The older I get the more meaningless game achievements are, I realized I was wasting my life when I was playing TF2 and nobody I was playing with cared I was even there.
I spent a lot of years pretending getting to the end meant something, but eventually I couldn't avoid seeing the glacial progress in my life. So I stopped. Only if I can beat a game in 2 days (like Undertale) will I bother, otherwise it's too much work.
I'd rather watch a movie and see a good story done in 120 minutes than pretend I'm in a poorly written world by pressing keyboard keys.
>>24155039
i'm not
i played fallout 3 and new vegas and they're fucking shit
the only fun thing about fo3 was infilitrating tenpenny tower, slaughtering the humans, inviting the ghouls in, and slaughtering them too
the only video games I play anymore are either old, multiplayer, or indie
i haven't bought a current gen console game in 2-3 years, except for zone of the enders HD collection

>>24160039
If millions of people enjoy something and you don't, it's probably not them who are wrong.

>>24160106

Won't run on my machine probably. That and from what I've seen of it it's really nothing special.
>GOTY

I have a console for it but not the money or the interest. If i ever feel like playing games I just start up super meat boy and try to beat a few more levels in dark world. Otherwise I think watching art films is more productive.. I hope.
>mfw /v/ spoiled every game I was interested that came out this year
>>24160060

I am laughing. Meanwhile, you're an idiot.
>>24161590
Honestly, it's so hard to completely avoid spoilers in this day, and age. The only surefire way to avoid anything is to dig a hole in the ground, and wait until the game is out, and you finished it.
not a gamer, so I wont be playing it.
never played Skyrim either
>>24161682
>not a gamer
I can't afford a graphics card/console capable of playing fallout 4 because I spent all my money on hookers.
I'm not sure which would've been the more productive way to spend $400
>>24161645
Work on the reading comprehension, comrade
Fallout 3 and new Vegas constantly freeze on my ps3, how do I fix this shit? It gets worse and worse as I progress through both games. Is anyone else experiencing this? I'm getting a PC soon just for these two games
>>24161818
Stop buying shit ports
>>24155039
>mfw I never played Fallout of GTA so I will never understand the hype for these games.
>mfw the whole world is going crazy over Fallout 4 and I don't care at all.
It's nice being ignorant to things when you have no money for them anyways.
>>24161818
nothing you can do about it. FO3 and FNV attempt every trick in the book to go around the PS3's insanely low RAM(several patches were released on all platforms removing NPCs and clutter to try to remedy this), but sometimes it's just too much for the poor thing to handle.
>>24161907
Damn, might as well sell my ps3 and games just to get a PC. But these problems don't happen in the 360 right?
>>24161934
didn't happen when I played. The 360 has double the RAM, so these types of issues should be rarer.
Preordered pip boy edition and it won't arrive today, watafuckingjoke.jpg I paid more for a game I can't play
The only games I ever play anymore are League of Legends and Super Smash Bros Melee. Maybe the occasional Starcraft or AOE game. Used to play FIFA 14 with my friend all the time but don't have XBL anymore.
Don't see much of a point in buying new games or consoles anymore. There are already so many old games out there that I could pick up and play if I want something different. No point paying top dollar for brand new games and consoles when you can get tons of entertainment from free or ridiculously cheap older games.
>>24155039
lol why quit video games. they are getting better and better so you are quitting at the worst time kek

So no Fallout 4 for me.
>>24162167
Sell it as antique. Shoudl get you a nice 2500 if done right
Never liked the genre, recently understood the appeal of it.
It's basically for people that want to escape from reality and go on an adventure for a sense of fullfillment, achieving something, discover.
I pity all the people playing it and everyone that plays a game of the same genre.

Bloodborne is the best game I have played in years, the only thing I am looking forward to in the gaming world is the Bloodborne dlc (which looks sick as fuck).
Also slightly off topic but
>people falling for the video game normie meme again
I know im a little late on the game but I just picked up battlefield 4 for $20 just to have some online shenanigans
Im not but level 4 already and Im MVPing everymap and making it 1st, 2nd. and 3rd rank on every fucking match.
Is it really this easy? Do normies really find this shit that much fun? What the fuck. Im already bored of how easy and predictable this game is.
Also I dont doubt that fallout 4 is shit, but can anyone eleaborate? Whats so shitty about it?
>>24155039

>>24160461
>>24163566
Literally the only great release this year. MGSV was disappointing as fuck, and I never gave a shit about Fallout in the first place.
Bloodborne was fantastic. I just wish the DLC was getting a physical release in the US.
>>24155039
Fuck you, I had to completely abandon /v/ because of Fallout 4.
>>24155473
You'll come back. I took a break from vidya for a year or so. There aren't many other distractions left, especially if you aren't chasing vagina.
>>24157199
If you liked 2 you should play New Vegas.
New Vegas is pretty much a direct sequel in that it follows the NCR's expansion east as Tandi dies and the government becomes bloated and corrupt.
Mostly because I can't. My pc is shit, and I don't have next gen aside from Wii U. I can't get into get into the fallout games anyway...
Looks pretty bad. Generally if games are hyped this much they're probably going to be shit. GTA V is one of the most recent exceptions.
>>24163638
Not him but I did the same thing, just in 2011. I still haven't got back into video games, despite trying over and over again.
>>24155039
i got fallout 4 on the midnight release. Played like 5 hours already. It's aight but I'm still trying to get the mechanics down since they're REALLY different. Also I'm exhuasted and cant be assed to learn all this new shit atm. stopped playing so i can just mindlessly farm in wow but I'll play some more tomorrow
Im not buying games on release, only retards do, hence why the industry has gone to shit.
>tfw selling my ps3 and games just to get a pc so i can play fallout games

Fallout 4 is worse than Fallout 3.

>>24155039
>mfw I finished Fallout 1 yesterday for the first time, while I See all my friends playing 4.
I hope 2 will be better
>>24163803
New Vegas is the newest Fallout worth playing and it should run decent enough even on your iGPU.
>>24163811
forgot to add that my laptop has a very serious graphics driver that i do not know how to fix, i have fallout 3 and new vegas for the ps3 but its horrible to play because of the ps3 low amount of ram
>>24163782
yeah but the power armor you get is for like 10 minutes and then half of it break and you run out of energy from the power core
so essentially you get to demo the suit and keep the harness. Still have to find plating replacements and fresh cores.
>>24155039
>tfw insufficient PC specs

you get more enjoyment from a game if you choose one randomly. Pick one at random and give it a chance. You'd be glad you tried something new
