Normies don't have time for actually solving puzzles and figuring out where to go on their own, they want cinematic™ experiences™ that hold their hand the entire time, with only one possible direction TO go, so there's an exactly zero percent chance of them ever getting stuck or lost.

Final Fantasy became "The Scene Kids: Jap Edition" after a certain point.
The other two are literally what tier.

Unless you define moeblob as "Anything made in Japan," then none of those games fit the bill. And, if you DO describe moeblob in that way, then you are simply wrong.

This is why sandboxes are and always will be second to bullet hells as "most autistic genre". They just fucking stagnate until only robots can still enjoy them.

This is just a /v/ meme. There are lots of good indie games but their reputation is ruined by all the cheap cash-graps with bad pixelated graphics.
>>321230390
If a big name studio is behind it and 20+ million went into marketing.
If you check metacritic and the professional and user reviews aren't similar.
Those are my two major red flags.
>>321234025
Speaking of autistic.. is there anything more autistic than Minecraft?
>>321233973
So uh. What do you play
>>321234134
Not as ignorant as you, anon.
>Anything made in Japan is immediately superior to its Western counterpart
10 bucks says both Trails in the Sky and Grandia are full of painfully generic tropes. 10 bucks also says you frequent threads that discuss out piss ugly Western-designed women are compared to your perfect Eastern waifus.

>Story driven

End your life.
>>321234182
Yeah, I know. It kills me because they still do this even today.
>>321234351
Dwarf Fortress is Minecraft's older, more autistic brother who lives in the basement with approximately 30 piss bottles.
>>321234372
Newsflash, Anon: Your western games are generic as fuck, too. This is why you are ignorant. You think that, because it doesn't appeal to you, it MUST be more generic than the ones that do. It doesn't get much more ignorant than that.. You don't know the game and don't care to know the game. Ignorant.
>>321233973
This.
Every game that got shit like "minimalist psychological click-and-point adventure with bullet hell mechanics" is an automatic "NO" for me.
>>321234367
Good games.
>>321234452
Why would you want to see a story in a game instead of playing it?
>>321234520
I think minecraft is better at attracting actual autists even though DF is the deeper game.
Just check out which one has the higher amount of autistic jewtube content.
>>321234843
>Good games.
Hm yes. Insightful.
>>321234857
I'll take a game with tons of dialogue, characters that make me laugh or empathize with, and story-driven gameplay than some mindless button-mashing slashing game. Fuck that.
I bet you like Zelda games, too. Fucking pleb.
>>321232732
Faggots that think convoluted and messy games are better because they like 20 minutes of menu diving to equip boots. Excuse shitty combat mechanics because the game came out when they were 12 so they feel nostalgic for it. Morrowind sucks. Story>gameplay id rather have a more cinematic game that tells a great story than one burried in text boxes. Games like dark souls is the exception because at least the lore is bits and pieces and you're encouraged to fill in the blanks with what you want.
>>321235085
Replying to the wrong post is a sin senpai.

When the first few sidequests are shoddily made.
>NPC asks you to retrieve a stolen item
>Won't accept it if you bring it back before using it for yourself
>Won't even acknowledge it
>You can't even drop it in front of him because quest items are stuck in your inventory
>Two NPCs who are romantic rivals give you fake love letters from each other to the object of their affections
>No option to tell the recipient about both fake letters
>>321235361
I wish; sadly that ends in the classic:
>"oh, yeah This game is great, it has very good story and music".
>>321233218
>open world
>the world is just a hub for linear quests
>it doesn't matter which order you do the quests in because everything is scaled to your level anyway
>Game won't let you kill certain NPC's
>Game puts invisible walls at edges of cliffs
>Constant HUD tutorial pop-ups
>Giant flashy HUD
Hand holding/restricting the player for no reason is what is killing the industry.

Take off your nostalgia goggles you fucking idiot. You couldn't talk to 90% of all NPC's back then, and when you could it was morrowind-tier shit.
