You are given a button that, if pushed, completely erases one game (or series) from existence. This means all mods, all stand alone projects, all emulations, and all source code so the game can never and will never be made again.
The catch; the memory of the game and it's fan base do not vanish, instead they are left without any chance of ever playing it again.
What game do you choose?
Pic unrelated
DOTA 2.
Undertale
Pokemon Go.
The hype is already annoying me way too much
>>344651028
Fuck yeah, I agree.
>>344651028
This
CS:GO
Dwarf Fortress.
>>344651028
/thread
The Witcher
>>344650824
probably half life 2 only because it inspired the hellspawn of cinematic walking simulators that followed
>>344651028
This is stupid, and I'll explain why.
The undertale fanbase has already played through the game as many times as they want. After two or three playthroughs, there is no longer any replayability.
Sure, they might be a little upset that they won't be able to get their friends to play it anymore, but I guarentee the Undertale general on /vg/ would continue and people would still shitpost about it. Notice OP didn't include image macros or videos.
Personally, I would choose League of Lel.
The Beginner's Guide. If removing the existence of a game removes any successors by proxy, then The Stanley Parable. Parable at least had a little bit of humor value to it, but Guide was just a pile of pretentious dog shit, and further enabled other talentless retards to try and cash in on their high school art projects.
All the people saying Undertale are seriously wasting potential.
Once you've played it twice, you're done. There's no reason to ever pick it up again. All the autists in the fanbase don't play it anymore, they just jerk off to headcanon.
>>344650824
That retarded neptunia series
Warcraft
Warcraft gave birth to esports and assfaggots, without them, the world would be a better place
Overwatch.
final fantasy
League of Legends
Minecraft
I have nothing against the game, I'm just curious what would happen.
>>344651302
>>344651396
>>344651495
Do you guys have difficulty reading or something? The game would be be deleted today. The memory and impact would not be undone.
>>344651028
>>344651110
>>344651129
>>344651173
All these are good choices so far but my pick is Warlord Battlecry. The fan base for this series is incredible annoying and elitist.
>>344651723
Then what the fuck is the point? The game would just be made again.
Fucking retarded thread, kys.
>>344651367
>the Undertale general on /vg/ would continue
You don't fucking say.
Isn't /ksg/ still going?
CoD?
the sudden flow of those autists back into society would probably cause ww3.
>>344651824
>op says the game can never and will never be made again
way to go and prove his point, tardo
>>344651872
They hit 3k threads a couple of months ago.
>>344651824
It wouldn't be the same. Strange that OP doesn't mention videos, art, guides.
>>344650824
ET: The Extra Terrestrial. The crash wasn't kind to me.
The grenade still wouldn't go off, just because you pull the pin doesn't mean it's armed, You have to squeeze the trigger before it will do anything.
>>344651620
The amount of asspain this would cause would be hilarious
>>344651872
Somehow. I'm pretty sure they just jerk off and make dumb posts about being the 'comfiest' general.
>>344651367
Also, there will be a group that will recreate the game anyways.
>>344652308
This right here.
>>344650824
I would erase Melee just to see all those manchilds overreacting
>>344650824
someone explain those smiley to me
>>344650824
>>344651028
>Game is erased
>But everyone remembers it
>So the exact thing you hate (The fanbase) still exists
>But the thing that was alright (The game) is gone
Man you will go far if you start reading.
>>344650824
It would either be an ASSFAGGOTS or CS:GO, I can't decide which.
>>344650824
How come so many Native Englishfag don't know how to fucking use literally
>>344651367
Not to mention that an even more annoying group of Uddertale fans would emerge, pseudo-elitists who take pride in having played the game before it disappeared.
There would still be porn made. There would still be retarded roleplay tumblrs made by literal autists. There would still be people who ACTUALLY delude themselves into thinking they ARE an undertale character, or that they have 'ptsd' from Sans' fight.
Deleting Undertale would change almost nothing in the long run.
>>344650824
I would have to say League ofDotA2, my choice is DotA2
>>344650940
Dota in general, especially because it'd take LoL with it. And all the fucking kids ruining Overwatch. And all the South Americans on US servers.
>>344650824
Overwatch
>>344651103
This.
Loved playing it when I had the apk and only me and a few friends were playing, but now fuckin everyone and their mother plays.
>>344650824
this is stupid, it won't work. The pin is really hard to pull, no amount of duct tape will ever hold it in place.
>>344652482
Covering eyes in embarassment, covering mouth as in a gasp or "ohmygod", falling in love, tears of betrayal, flying giblets
Sonic (2006)
This would almost repair so much.
>>344652658
Because they're using it as an exaggeration for humour you autist
>>344650824
Final Fantasy, because then the casual weebs would have nothing to play
>>344651719
This is the only answer, and I know damn well what would happen
Minecraft opened the floodgates to thousands of shitty craft n survive with blocks clones and cultivated the worst youtube culture I've ever seen, as well as spreading to real life.
above all else, that fat swedish fuck got away with 2 fucking billion after ruining the game and generally being a lazy cunt
>>344651103
This, so much this. It blatantly pans to the genwunners and the "dude 90s lmao" faggots who can only appreciate something that gives them a sense of nostalgia.
They're not actually playing it for the game itself, they're just using it as a shitty time machine.
You're not a Pokemon Trainer, you're not living the dream, you're still just a douchebag walking around a college campus in a Deadpool shirt waving your iphone around like an idiot.
>>344650824
I wouldn't because I'd have nothing to gain from it and I don't want to fuck with people just because they enjoy something I don't.
Pong
>>344652851
>It was only fun when me and a few others were able to play it
Holy hipster batman
Counter strike, because then people might actually play a good shooter instead
>>344650824
Overwatch or League of Legends.
Dota2 at least has some redeeming qualities.
>>344652113
>squeeze the trigger
Pull pin, let go of level, then the fuse burns. You don't need to squeeze.
>>344650824
Dark souls series
>>344651028
Cool. Sort of like a reverse of what the original game was supposed to make you think about. that's kind of a nifty mindfuck.
>>344652574
Would be worth it for the trolling that would be made possible
Candy Crush Saga
>>344650824
Battlefield 2
>>344650824
Dark fucking Souls
>>344651723
It's mostly to spite that fact that the creator of The Beginner's Guide went on a field day and deleted most of his game's playthroughs on youtube because people realized it was a poorly written game that could be finished in an hour, shortly after steam refunds were announced. He gave up at some point when he realized that people basically called him out on his bullshit.
>>344655940
demon's souls remains
>>344654058
The lever is taped so all the door could do is pull the pin, or accidentally pull the grenade off of the wall.
Grand Theft Auto, it would basically kill the entire push of MATURE GAMES FOR MATURE GAMERS bullshit that made the last decade of gaming so fucking awful
>>344650824
I was thinking Half-Life, but then I'd hear the fanbase bitch EVEN MORE about there being no more Half-Life.
>itt: people with poor literacy skills
>>344651302
what if it's already happened but for hl3?
>>344651028
this wouldn't change anything. let me explain:
the people who like undertale aren't the people who've played it. the people who like undertale are the people who watched streams of it and read fanfics and shit like that. I got this autistic friend who loves indie games, and I knew he knew about undertale at the time, so I got it for him for christmas. he thanked me, said he was super excited to play it, etc.
fucker STILL hasn't installed it
P.T
Oh wait.
>>344651620
eventually they would all thank you for it
Super Smash Bros series.
>>344650824
>The catch; the memory of the game and it's fan base do not vanish, instead they are left without any chance of ever playing it again.
Some faggots could remake the game. And i'd delete Skyrimjob. Trash game.
>>344650824
Mario Bros.
>all these bitter people who would actually want to make others feel bad
Are you guys really this mean spirited that you would want others to suffer?
>>344650824
i was thinking of csgo but its dying anyway
so probably something super rare and expensive so the jewey collectors would have wasted their money
something like earthbound
>The catch; the memory of the game and it's fan base do not vanish, instead they are left without any chance of ever playing it again.
really OP? You couldve make it better by telling us that everything about game X, even the people who used to know and played it will vanish from their minds and game X will become nonexistent
>>344657139
>csgo
>dying
What an insanely random lie for this thread.
>>344650824
fallout, as long as bethesda is in charge it's only going to get worse and it doesn't deserve that.
But the pin wouldn't be pulled
Sonic
Pronto, I cured autism.
Tough call between Undertale or League of Legends, not sure which would cause more asshurt/suicides.
>>344658138
It would be if you opened the door.

Videos are a basic form of emulation, they were be gone under OPs rules.
A screen cap or a drawing should be fine
if i want to be an asshole Quake;
think about it, from that engine was born the history of modern gaming...
If i had a real chance i don't think i'll use it, I don't care.
Doom, or maybe ultima online.
Fallout.
Would the door have enough force to extract both the pin and the lever?
>>344650824
But door handles go down, not up so it would have no chance of pulling the string to begin with
Myself.
>>344657105
Yes.
I am sick of the Overwatch/Battleborn shitpost fests (they're not even funny anymore) Your waifus and husbandos are all fucking vanilla, all I ever see lately is nerf this and buff that and I'm just generally sick of hearing about it come up so yeah..

Overwatch.
It fucking leeched Battleborn's playerbase. If shitterwatch was gone, people would move over to Battleborn and realize it's the better game.
>>344652851
And when exactly this magical time took place? As far as I know the app skyrocketed to the sky with normies even before the official releases, so you and your friends enjoyed an underground non-mainstream game for like.. 24 hours maybe??

World of Warcraft, it's just time for that garbage to die. No I'm not a "insert other mmo player" here, or whatever you drones will try to damage control with as a deflection. The standard MMO formula needs to die and it'll take WoW dying for another formula to ever be given a chance.
Unreal Tournament 3. Bring it all crashing down.
>>344659319

Theyre just throwing out buzzwords to represent "X group i dont like", he probably considers them nu-males as well
I don't see the point of this thread...
if it was rather: what if 'x' game never existed? then there's maybe something to talk about
if a game magically disappears and it magically can't be remade, then someone will just make something similar to try and get it back
for example, even if you remove the metroid series, there's still a lot of metroid like games out there, and there would be even more if it disappeared

I can't believe how many retards agreed with this. Any idiot who's played through the game once can faithfully recreate it and even if they don't the entire fucking story (the game's main appeal) is everywhere on the internet.

Barring that, something like League/Dota/etc would be the best move.
>>344651028
This doesn't make any sense. Undertale isn't a game where the appeal lies in replaying it over and over again until the end of time. It's a very short story-based game. Anyone who wants to play it has already done so, and all three routes are very easy to do. People who shitpost about Undertale and (I assume) annoy you are not going to suddenly forget the game and why they like it, they just can't play it again (which they wouldn't do anyway since they've already either played it all or watched it on YouTube). Assuming what you hate about the game is the fanbase, you've done nothing but give them more shit to post about.
>>344650824
I was going to say Doom, but then I saw this >>344659640 and I agree 1,000%. How are we still living in an age where new MMOs compete to be the "WoW killer". The whole genre is stagnant because of this game. People are actually angry at Blizzard for not supporting legacy servers for a 12 year old game.
Polybius
Honestly, get rid of the Call of Duty Franchise.
Bland, uninteresting gameplay, shitty environments, dudebros who think it's the second coming of Christ. Take em all.
Alternatively, kill League of Legends and their hugbox community.

Final Fantasy. Without it, FF7 wouldn't have been made. Without FF7, there wouldn't be a huge focus on cinematics over gameplay like with every game after it. There would be no focus on expensive marketing and development budgets. There would be no shitty CGI movies so expensive they nearly bankrupted Square. Pretty much everything you see in modern gaming can be traced back to precisely three games; Final Fantasy 7, Metal Gear Solid, and Shenmue.

It's a difficult question because the obvious answer is games with autistic fanbases like Undertale or Sonic, or even Overwatch but the fanbases will remember everything and removing the source material will do nothing since cancer fanbases all inevitably end up caring almost exclusively their head canons anyway.
I would say Fallout 4 but Bethesda would just make another one equally as shitty if not worse.

I hated that series with every fiber of my being.

But anon, I did hear of it, and I didn't know what ill tidings it would bring to my home. But you see anon, I beat it, because I'll be damned if I let that broken, weird-ass nip monstrosity win. That's what it means to "Git Gud" anon. You don't let the game win, no matter what, you don't let it win. You beat it, and you never play it again for as long as you live. You don't have to be skilled to be Gud, you just have to keep Gitting.

I know. I just have a hard time choosing between them.
If we can wipe out entire studios, then maybe Bethesda. That way Todd can never lie again and he'll be forced to kill himself.

Whatever game series contributed most to the invasion of normalfags in the industry.
Fallout 4.
Let's see if lightning can strike a third time for Bethesda after the hype machine has its critical mass well behind it.

Learn to read, you fucking idiot.
>The catch; the memory of the game and it's fan base do not vanish, instead they are left without any chance of ever playing it again.

They dont even know their games. The way skyrim was for example described in morrowind was completely different. I made the mistake of looking forward to that game because I was familiar with the way they described the place. It ended up being a boring, neutral place with fucking dragons instead of all cool shit that it was supposed to have.
Why bother paying attention to the stuff in their games when nothing means anything there.
World of warcraft just to see faggots freak out when a decade of their life suddenly vanishes with no way to ever get it back
