I'm sorry if you like them, but shadow of the colossus and breath of the wild ruined videogames, especially indie shit
While quite literally is a tech demo, those games are indistinguishable from it. They figured out the formula of sort of cool gimmick crap set in a giant empty(literal in this case) sandbox. I hate seeing games that look like this now. It will be the illusory gigantic world with nothing in it so practically 3 hours of content separated by dozens of hours of walking simulator. Like wind waker but on a grander scale
I want videogames to be smaller but content rich like they used to be. Where hardware limitation forced devs to have realistic scale instead of screwing around with their pipedreams, having to crunch and delay the project 40 quadrillion times to blank checks and then at the 11th hour slap it onto marketplaces and patch it shortly afterwards and eventually fix it 2 years after release to sorta kinda be what they promised in concept
I want games like the original Fable or System Shock 2 or the old 80s and 90s RPGs. I'm sick and tired of wandering through the wilderness dispatching the same 5 enemy types, repeating the same boring fetch quests, with the same played out mechanics. I want a plethora of gameplay options, not 8 trillion ways to skin a cat where the end result is always the same. Elder Scrolls removing spells, classes, enchantments, magic schools, armor pieces, weapon types, etc. while giving me longer dungeons does the opposite of satisfying me, it makes more tedious and boring which is why when people go back to play skyrim they can only get so far before the tedium sets in and they uninstall
It isn't about the familiarity or nostalgia of smaller games like New Vegas or Ocarina of Time, we can replay those dozens if not hundreds of times because they were made well, they aren't a bunch of fluff, each area is recognizable and lived in, it isn't hundreds of miles of wasteland, you know specifically how the trek to New Vegas is sprawled out and even though it's scripted and well worn in your mind it's still fun. There are plenty of games we initially liked as kids that we go back to play and find out they sucked, we can recognize nostalgia and it's always an excuse for fags who want to erase the past because they're the children of satan or too stupid to realize they're being strung along by his servants to create a world unlike God's Kingdom
I'm just tired of it. No more open world, no more choices matter, no more narrative focus, no more gimmicks, no more online multiplayer, no more branching paths, no more crafting, no more roguelite elements, in fact I'm almost at the point where I don't even want branching dialogue, just have the npc do the oblivion 1 out of 5 phrase lottery and only plot critical npcs have anything worthwhile to say
@WashedOutGundamPilot fairly certain the standard practice is to cremate horses. That and glue. Probably since they're too big, I imagine if you buried a horse you'd have to dig twice the size grave as a human, so it'd be stupid like 30ft down and 15 across
@ArdainianRight one really does wonder in a serious way that nothing is beyond the pale. That society has been successfully pushed degree by degree to the point it will accept anything and it's more like waiting on a preorder than to be surprised(horrified) at something new

🧛♀️✝️Ilya🦇Ornstein☃️Fan💒🎄Gentlemen, what are the odds that THIS will FINALLY get people off their ass? Same exact situation that happened to trump. So when there are completely different consequences and treatment will people acknowledge the federal government is illegitimate and just do what they want completely ignoring it, or for the 5 billionth time point out hypocrisy like evil people can somehow be guilttripped into giving up power and turning themselves in if embarrassed enough?
@ChristiJunior they did this with avatar recently. They look stupid because they said it was the worst movie ever made and many in the general public have gone to see it multiple times. From all accounts I've heard it's just good old fashioned movie blockbuster retardation with a kinda gay save the whales propaganda but it doesn't lecture, and people are enjoying it. So bluechecks and other faggots have quietly averted their attention away. As I said before, the movie is probably a 4/10 retarded vs these faggots who praise literal 1/10 fag propaganda, if you even think about it for a fraction of a second the entire universe caves in on itself with amateur level mistakes and laziness, movies
@RyokoPilled@ChristiJunior I was actually watching Phantom Menace with mutuals and the setup for the movie is cool but man we spent the majority of the runtime picking apart the politics, lucas really needed some people to tell him no back then because the skeleton for the prequels is really good but in no way did he flesh it out and the way he wrote the actual material required it to be written very well. It's a political thriller with sabotage and espionage from a genius manipulator using volatile and complex governments and he just sort of distilled it down to a cursory overview of US politics. Makes you wonder how incredible those movies could have been. People would probably be saying that the prequel movies were some of the most intelligent films ever made as well as fun, star wars nerds would be making fun of trekkies nonstop for being pseudointellectual instead of saying that star wars isn't really supposed to be high brow lol
Normally I wouldn't be bringing this up but who tf would have thought on twitter I literally called stan lee an idiot and how spiderman should never be a negro and that was a civil debate where I was able to say I'm racist and post a meme with nigger in it at somebody but me saying that rian johnson is a retard and his newest movie makes no sense is a bridge too far
They now say "well he can't make a good star wars film". Nigger he can't make a good movie period. He is the ultimate indefensible film maker where the defense ultimately boils down to, "well his movie was SUPPOSED TO BE RETARDED"
