Video Games: The General Discussion & Community Thread

[SleepingSilence]

>Since many individuals never even see background drama, as you admit to be among them.

When did I admit to that? And why do you think you're more privy to information freely accessible on the internet than anyone else? Do you work in the industry?

@Dolerman

>PR problems of their own doing

Not aware of this, elaborate?

@Dolerman

Seriously? Have we been even having the same conversation?

Oh really? Okay tell me a valuable or 'high profile' person who isn't a youtuber or streamer who has been attacked by naughty dog publicly.

And yeah it would because however high profile you claim to be the obviously haven't had a lot of influence over the game in terms of sales or critical recpetion.

@Dolerman

The constant misspellings almost make me feel like I'm being punked. But, a man who does not read, is no smarter than a man who cannot read. So maybe look it up, instead of smugly questioning me about it. Hell, I told you where I got one reference already, that would prove my point, if you paid enough attention and looked it up for yourself. (And you no longer have the excuse not to, after I got to hear "how could I possibly act like I have more information, when I apparently know something you never heard of before?"

Also, basically everything else you said, has already been addressed before. So now I know I'm not having my posts read.

@SleepingSilence

The things you labelled as PR problems I have not agreed to be problems. So yeah we are having the same conversation, but you're not following all of it.


>The constant misspellings almost make me feel like I'm being punked. But, a man who does not read, is no smarter than a man who cannot read.

I think you should have felt punked the last time you brought up spelling mistakes and you were making them yourself, and the best excuse you can come up with was typing on your phone. So yes no smarter than a man who cannot read to his own standards.

>So maybe look it up, instead of smugly questioning me about it.

You seemed fairly confident that there were these non youtube figures who were being attacked. Now, when pressed to tell me who they are, you seem less confident. I've 'looked it up' and I haven't found any. So maybe you can provide this missing evidence for me and anyone else whose reading. It shouldn't take anymore energy than embedding youtube videos like you've done before.

>(And you no longer have the excuse not to, after I got to hear "how could I possibly act like I have more information, when I apparently know something you never heard of before?"

You didn't add a closing bracket here, these grammar mistakes are making me feel like I'm being punked.

>Hell, I told you where I got one reference already,

Having finished TLOU2, imagine people being mad to play as Abby when she had the best content in the fucking game

FTFY

[SleepingSilence]

Oh, you're that person aren't you. Okay, adds up.

The things you labelled as PR problems I have not agreed to be problems.

@Dolerman

So let me get this straight.

The thing you don't know about, you don't consider a problem. Good for you?

Also, that's not even what PR means. So...that's only mildly irrelevant?

Jimquisition, the youtuber.

@Dolerman

Great, you know. So...maybe...look those videos up and watch them then. Ya, know if you have nothing else better to do. And you're here, so that's just a guess on my part.

But, my focus was never really talking about the game in particular. So feel however you want about it.

Company got bad PR, and rightfully deserved it. Fin.

Edit: Also, a bracket isn't related to spelling. Since you didn't know. ;)

[Dolerman]

@SleepingSilence

>The thing you don't know about, you don't consider a problem. Good for you?

Nope, read it again. I do know the things you've mentioned. You consider them problems but you haven't been demonstrated them to be in any adequate way. I don't know what to tell ya.

>Great, you know. So...maybe...look those videos up and watch them then.

I originally asked you for non-youtubers who have been attacked by naughty dog, you said they existed but haven't shown a shred of evidence in that direction, so I'm assuming you've all but abandoned that bluff, which would explain the pivot. Me watching a youtuber who didn't like the game is completely pointless and has nothing to do what's being discussed.

>But, my focus was never really talking about the game in particular. So feel however you want about it.

Well you said the story is bad and you haven't played it. So I can feel that your perspective isn't very useful. You said that Naughty Dog was a bad company because they attack 'high profile' individuals. I asked you if any of said individuals weren't just youtubers with an opinion and you choked on that front. You also said that having overpriced pre-orders and multiple delays is the sign of a bad company and CD projekt red is one of the better ones. I told you CD Projekt red engaged in both of those things and you mentioned PR problems and issues 'behind the scenes'.

Now again unless you are some sort of journalist with an insider source, why would you be more privy to 'behind the scenes' issues than anyone else with a working internet connection. You're either overstating your importance or too lazy to source your arguments.

And I see how quickly you abandoned the spelling insults when you yourself put a quote without a closed bracket.

Maybe you should hold yourself to the standard you set for others, yes?

The only thing new I’m going to add to the video game talk is that Troy Baker is really, really protective of the games he’s worked on to the point of cringe.

[Dolerman]

Ghost of Tsushima looks pretty, acclaim is won and lost on how well you can render grass.

[Fabricant451]

play it in black and white mode or it doesnt count this is a psa

My brother sent me this gem. So I had to share it.

[Fabricant451]

Deadly Premonition 2 thinking fans of the first game will tolerate a game that struggles to get double digit fps in the year 2020 will forgive them this trespass is one hundred percent on brand for Deadly Premonition but also they're really asking a lot of fans.

@Fabricant451

I really need to give the first game a second (more like seventh) chance.

[Dolerman]

If you can tolerate anything about playing Deadly Premonition, then then framerate aint gonna scare you off.

In other news Wasteland 3 can't come soon enough because everything else looks ass.

[Hey Im Jordan]

i started playing chrono trigger, it's cool so far

[Fabricant451]

Assassin's Creed Valhalla looks fuckin dope

[Dolerman]

Okay finally finished TLOU2

We need more gritty fights in shallow water, not just in games but in media in general.

Abby is best girl and I love everything about her.

Far Cry 6 looks like a great movie and I can't wait to watch it on netflix

2011 called and they want Watchdogs Legion back...but they said you can keep the unforgivably bad mary poppins british accents.

[Fabricant451]

Watch Dogs Legion feels both tone deaf and also incredibly outdated and Ubisoft isn't fooling anyone when they say that the people you recruit are going to have 'recruitment missions' as if they're going to be anything other than something that rivals a Bethesda radiant quest in terms of banality. But hey you can be an old woman haha isn't that funny, who cares about consistency of tone that shit's so analog.

Not that I have any room to talk, I'm genuinely looking forward to Valhalla.

@Fabricant451

The game has York punching squirrels and bees and riding a skateboard. Letting my eyes suffer and degenerate into mush is worth giving SWERY more of my money (that he will use to drink too much and not do anything productive with it)

[Dolerman]

I can't wait to start burning down copy/paste villages in For Honor: Shadow of War

I also can't wait for Hyperscape, it combines the super original setting of a virtual MMO world in corporate dystopia along with the super original first person shooter battle royale genre. What will they think of next?

Seriously though if Ghost of Tsushima doesn't scratch my Tenchu itch then I'm going to have to force myself to get excited for paper mario or some shit.

[BrokenPromise]

The last of us 2 is still relevant? I found this video interesting. It's 30 minutes long but is both a good watch and doesn't treat TLOU2 as a masterpiece nor does it claim the whole thing is shit.

Also, spoilers.
