Why do PC users hate console users? What is the cause behind that movement?
Do console users dislike PC gamers?
>>319460215
Name the last time a console game was shittier because of being a multiplat release.
I'll wait.
The attitude of PC gamers in the west is quite something to behold, it's extremely pro-consumer but funnily enough to its own disadvantage.
Basically what happened before and during the PS360 gen is the rise of PC gaming and the mass migration. Those who had been raised by consoles were now turning their backs on them yet in such a way that instead of seeing them as machines that have supported game development for over a decade, they were now seen as obsolete pieces of hardware designed by greedy companies to hold back their gaming experience. This propelled the already growing subculture of PC superiority as we know it today.
Now what PC users failed to realize was the consequences of damaging consoles market share for it was to directly reduce the capacity for the industry to fund and develop games in the wake of rising game budgets. What was was once standard industry practice was now flipped on it's head to completely pander to the PC user. It's hard for developers to want to support PC when they make up such a small amount of overall sales, demand that games to be sold underpriced yet optimized for their unique hardware configurations all while the rest of the userbase engages in rampant piracy.
As games continue to evolve and cost developers, they will simply continue to work hand in hand with consoles who will adapt to the changes with hardware iterations towards the end of it's life cycle. It is this infrastructure of complimentary support that actually holds the gaming industry together and drives it forward while also ensuring developers remain stay afloat and continue to make the exclusive games we all know and love.
PC users ultimately reap what they sow though, the state of the support for the platform is a testament of its failure. PC is largely supported out of necessity and without multiplats, it is dead, that is how fickle the line is between reality and the PC platform. 2016 will be one of the greatest gears of gaming history, except for PC.

You are retarded. Anyone with half a brain and a wallet would have a pc and console of choice.
Give you opinions and have people shit on you for them

any proof?
No, this can't be true. If it was I would develope Ebola and it would slowly kill off my people. NO!!!
>Fountain of Dreams
If fucking only they had picked that instead of Dream Land.
Cloud is released on the 16th along with five other characters. They'll do a spoof of Final Fantasy (the firat) with Cloud walking in the wilderness with three other characters (Link,Robin,and,Fox) and engage in combat with two newcomers (Namdai rep and Nintendo rep) appear from the shadows and challenge in an old fashion FF battle screen. There are three other characters following the ballot. Also miiverse costume features Barret's gunner outfit, Tifa's fighter suit, and Cloud's swordsman outfit. Other costumes planned also.
Post proof or fuck off

>fuck off
The player icon must dwarf the character portraits now on 3DS. I think it's foolish to think it would look like the OP.
Is Pokemon: Gale of darkness any good?
>>319459673
Better than the first one. And the first one dragged the mother fuck on for way too long.
>>319459673
Well done avoiding the whole topic redirection because Pokemon XD
oops
>>319459673
Oh sweet jesus I don't remember the proportions of that game being so grotesque

I want to go down Shodan's corridors, panting.
>>319459702
Are you just awake or something?
Honestly, this entire best game ever thing has some pretty retarded matchups.
>Pokemon against The World Ends with You
>Final Fantasy against Journey
>Life is Strange against Fallout 3
>Phoenix Wright against fucking SKYRIM
>Persona 4 against 999
>GTA against Shovel Knight
>Witcher 3 against Binding of Isaac
>MGS against Splatoon
>ME2 against literally ANY game on the Vita
Who made this list?
>>319459402
Witcher 3 will win, forget the other garbage.
>skyrim beat metroid prime
What the fuck
>>319459915
Gamefaqs is super casual, and these things are always just popularity contests.
What made these games so fun?
It's not the story, it's not the graphics, and their gameplay aren't that complex or really much better than other games.
>DM
Fucking around with all the physics shit is fun as hell.
>pick up a barrel and bash some orc over the head with it
>cut another ones head off
>kick the last one off a ledge
>FEAR
Good enemy and environment design. Guns feel satisfying, vaporizing an enemy with a shotgun is fun as fuck, and the slow-mo ability means you can pull off some shit that makes you feel like an unstoppable badass.
You can tell that the developers of both games cared about the product they put out, and as a result a lot of love and care went into them.
>Fear
Fun and satisfying gunplay, graphics are good, it's the art direction and the level design that's really lacking.
>Dark Messiah
Gameplay is really just much better than other games, I can't even think of any other pure singleplayer first person melee game.

Because they were made for pc first
The graphics are shit but it has a lot of enhancements, according to GAF:
Cyan is usable now as he charges his Bushido actively, not manually
-It uses the GBA localization which is much richer than the original Woosley translation, which although still good, he was limited with cart sizes and was rushed.
-It has all the GBA enhancements--new dungeon, new Espers, and new equipment.
-Menu system is much better for battling.
-Much better character menus--you can see what Esper they have equipped and when party members level up without going into their individual status menus
-Music is SNES quality, unlike the GBA version
-Optional hints and journal so you can keep track of your progress.
-Auto battle! Helps in longer dungeons.
-Bug fixes--No more Vanish plus Doom. Plus the GBA bug fixes, such as Magic Evade actually working.
-Bestiary
-Music player!
Anyone ever done a low level play through?
>>319458185
nope
tl;dr: it's the mobile version.
Have ever made a videogame?
Was itgood or fun?
It's fun for maybe a few minutes at a time. It's more of an arcade-y high score thing that I made mainly to practice programming.

What volume is the from?
>>319459669
Delinquent-chan has a bully crush on Tomoko.
Anyone played this? I enjoyed Alien Swarm and Kill Team but that was a few years back.
>>319458679
Haven't played it but it's apparently the same people who did Magicka, meaning killing your teammates on accident is probably central to gameplay. Plan on getting it to play with my girlfriend.
>>319458679
Yeah, it's pretty good. Camera forces all players in frame at all times, which is super annoying coming from alien swarm, though.
Missions can get a little repetitive, but it's pretty good fun. A little grindy, but not as bad as I was expecting. DLC can be a little P2W until you unlock some of the normal gear.
>>319458808
There's friendly fire, but the tone is near complete polar opposite to magicka.
Kill a friend in magicka, lol, press three buttons, they're back. In this, they're back in ten seconds after like six keypresses, and then you can't respawn anyone for another full minute. Meanwhile cyborgs are pushing your ass in. It's WAY more serious than magicka.

To preface: I was one of those guys who liked NV more than 3, so 4 didn't get me too excited. But then I actually played. I'm having a blast. So, after around 60 hours of play, here is my list of pros and cons of the game.
Pros:
1. World Design: Bethesda's world design has never been more on point; it puts even Skyrim's world design to shame. Areas in-game are varied, detailed, atmospheric and encourage exploration.
2. Gunplay: Combat is light years ahead of all of Bethesda's previous games; it's dynamic, hard to the point of making you think tactically and play cautiously but not to frustration (which is very hard to accomplish), and the AI is competent; preferring to seek cover in a gun fight as opposed to stand in the open like an idiot in previous games.
3. Narrative: allow me to explain, Fallout 4's story is much better than Fallout 3, though not as good as NV. No clear bad guys, an actually good ethical dilemma, good hooks, and the BoS actually acts like the BoS from older Fallouts, as opposed to how in 3 they were standard goody-two-shoes. I would say, overall, the writing is on par with the Fallout 3 DLC: the Pitt, for comparison.
4. Companions: this is the first game where Bethesda got companions right. each companion is unique, memorable, is useful, has good and unique dialogue, quests, and will call you out if you do something they don't like.
Cons:
1. Dialogue: my biggest grip. Limited, mass-effect type dialogue.
2. Lack of character builds: at high level, you will be pretty much good at everything.
3. Interface: it, especially the settlements interface can be a bit clunky. UI mod is gonna be a godsend.
Thoughts?

You forgot the shitty copy paste quests
>>319459018
standard in all RPGs senpai. Goes without saying.
>>319458435
Are you me? I think I literally agree with everything you're saying.
Fallout 4 is what Fallout 3 should've been.
