Give up on modern gaming

If you buy AAA games made after 2011 you are a fucking idiot. If you willingly surrender your wallet and anus for shittier and shittier games, you are a fucking idiot.

buy the latest sequel Moviegame for $100+tip

wait for 500GB download to finish

has battlepass, lootboxes, emotes

"live service" where features the previous game had on launch day are gone and dripfed back to you over time

or in the case of destiny 2 they will simply take the $250+ worth of dlc you already paid for and remove it in an update

hard mode isn't even hard

runs like shit despite having fortnite plastic graphics

Meanwhile:

google any old game + rom

download finishes in seconds

the game is just fun with lots of replay value

customise your character without microtransactions

hard mode actually rocks your shit

well-optimised even back then; today it can run at literal 1000's of frames per second on a potato pc

has loads of mods

game works without an internet connection

Indie games are still good but even they are conceptually modest compared to old AAA games due to small budgets. There's never gonna be an indie Xenosaga for instance

minimum requirements: gtx 1060 or equivalent

'waow, dis 2011 game looks insane guize'

minimum requirements: rtx 4090 or equivalent

'WHAT THE FUCK WHY DOES DIS GAME LOOK SO BAD AND'

Show me the difference between very high shadows and EXTREME CHEESE shadows and tell me it's worth it, you cant

Footage of bf6 is still pre-alpha. That 360x240 pixelated image is not the final representation.

You are the slop buyer and the reason why they make slop

After 2011

Why that date? Are you a Xbox kiddie only just now waking up?

that's a lot of words for "I'm poor"

I think that new games look much "better". It's just that I personally don't really care about having realistic textures and lots of details on the screen. I like my games gamey.

That's the thing. They can steal the games and get cheap hardware. Playing modern games you can steal the game but you can't afford the hardware. Basically it's all poor people.

This highly compressed blurry image will showcase your point very well.

BF6 will definitely be a more enjoyable experience than BF1 because it won't be a movelet game designed for turbo casuals.

To run a game on MAX settings

People complaining about optimization aren't running games in ultra without experimenting with settings whatsoever
Fact is games look and run worse

No it isn't, you can play every game in existence for FREE

you can pirate modern games too

Bad company 2 is still playable and has an active player base on the community server.

You can't run them, that's the fun poorfag part

you are waaay overestimating the average gaymer. Most do put it on extra giga max and then cry when it runs like shit on their 4790k

this is like thinking gamecube prices are the norm

If these people are tech literate enough to complain about TAA on teddit then they're tech literate enough to change the graphics settings to "Low". And the games will still run like shit while looking worse than PS4 games.

Texture resolutions got bigger but here's the kicker. They don't matter 90% of the time when you're moving around in actual gameplay. Unless you're a normalfag walking around at a snails pace analyzing everything like a retard. These are also the same midwits who are buying these games the most so it's all a vicious closed cycle of retardation. And yet we still don't have better lighting systems than in 2010 which would make an actual difference like more than 3 light sources and shadows rendering farther away than 50 meters while at the same time not tanking the framerate. No, gay ray tracing isn't it because it kills your frames even worse and more often than not isn't even implemented well like the HL2 RTX demo.

buzzwords

implying crouch sliding like a faggot is a good thing

Yeah...

… or you could just buy a AAA game like Monster Hunter: Wilds or Metaphor: Refantazio which is sold at a flat price, has minimal DLC (except when wilds gets it big expansion in a year or so) and are both good experiences. Stop being such a debbie downer retard

If we are going by your dogshit screenshots apparently there is lots of progress since BF1 is a blurry mess.

BF1 was better when slide was usable. BF1 had no other aggressive movement options besides slide and when you nerf it to be unusable then entire game turns into camping

What if I told you multilayer online games are for faggots
Sorry/not sorry

has minimal DLC

Minimal DLC is still DLC.

BF1 was a bad game and the most casualized Battlefield game. Even more than BC games. However the lack of "usable" slide cancer wasn't an issue. If you can't deal with retards camping without resorting to sliding around like a mong then it's not a gameplay design issue.

No you see, those are shitty games because my pointless argument depends on it, therefore it is you who is the retard

No no no, I’m not a retard because I said YOU’RE a retard

IMG_1840.jpg - 1158x1156, 118.66K

What I mean by camping isn't just LMG/sniper proning, once you take out aggressive movement options people who are pre aiming, holding the angles will win the fight most of the time.

My PC can emulate Time Crisis 2 on MAME with zero frame drops, your tranny gayming system cannot because you cheaped out on your CPU while my chad emulation and recording rig is using a ryzen 9 9950X.

Oh and when I'm not emulating arcade machines I'm playing on original consoles with pirated games using my retrotink 5x-pro and high quality shielded component (or RGB) cables and official controllers I serviced myself.

Now fuck off modern gayming poorfag.

There are some new games I like, but even those can be plagued by problems you mentioned or other problems. It's mostly just that I find most games boring, but also live service infesting even a few ok ones.

kys you strawmanning nigger

people who are pre aiming, holding the angles

You can use other people to help dislodge him since it isn't just autistic 1v1s. Alternatively just throw a grenade and force the retard to move. If it's a really badly designed map just go to a different side of the map and let the camping mong fester in his shit in piss. You have an entire map to play with after all.

i can run this 20 years old game!

holy poorfag

You are poor and brown :)

Holding angles will always have higher success rate.
You don't want to have to hit a sick flick. They're great for youtube clips but terrible for actually winning.
Brazilians have dominated competitive Rainbow Six for a while now and they do nothing but pre-aim and hold angles. Every top tier CS team does the same.

You need a strong computer to emulate complicated architectures. Oh, and Saturn games aren't cheap.

gotta consoom!

Irrelevant. Those rules apply to every FPS.
The less adjustments you have to make the higher your success rate.

of course its a consoleslop with aim assist

regenerating health aim assist cover console joystick slop

"not slop"

HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA HAHAHAHAHA

I didn't read OP as I assume they have no broken the eternal cycle of OP's sucking cock but I just wanted to say I like playing vidya. That is all.

Irrelevant. Those rules apply to every FPS.

If you are playing a game with long TTK and fast movement camping or holding lines won't do you any good.
??? Half the tech in the video aren't possible on console due to lack flicking. You can jump like on PC but you won't see zouzou vouzou shit on console.

CONSOLE SLOP LOLLLOL OMG XDDD ROFL LOLZ CCCP FBI

CS and R6 did irreperable damage to skillset of PC players. Old school PC players were playing Quake, airstrafing all the time and instagibbing other players. Modern PC cucks are too afraid to move an inch in FPS games due to CS and R6.

cool game you got there in your pic anon

Wilds is the poster game for modern AAA being shit, looking like utter ps3-tier shit and being so badly optimized it stutters even on good systems

rom

lol consoles

yes its 101% refined consoleslop with all its mechanics made and aimed at consoles and its so bad the players been complaining

Milds runs like shit AND looks worse than World. No reason to play it.

I'm still upset about my mom selling the Saturn my dad bought for me when I was 6.

with the end of the console era soon upon us, we can move past the barrier of technology having to be bottlenecked by the console-tards that were stuck on Sony's cuckoldry cage or the Xbox wagie cage. Only Nintendo will be stuck behind due to budget limitations forced to offer less than optimal game play experiences graphically speaking.

PC gaming has always been the master race.

Bf1 looks great becahse its texture work and a fuuuuuckton of post processing, which we hate in new games but go fucking nuts for in old games.

See also: lost planet

Only because the textures have some effort put into them in old games new games don't have as much effort.

pc gameplay of a game that originated on pc

'42-2142 played completely differently from Bad Company-Current. BF has been a console game longer than a PC game.

BF3 looks like a game from a different planet to BF2. they were six years apart.

BF6 looks like a marginal upgrade over BF3. They will be fourteen years apart.

demoralization thread #9529784327892534789

How much is Kotaku paying you?
Reminder that people think art style is tied to engines.

Doesn't Kotaku defend modern games?

Kotaku defends the stuff that makes people not want to play games. It's part of a demoralization campaign to make gaming unpopular again, so formerly cool people who aren't smart enough to play games will be cool again.

Bitch, it's already flooded with microtransactions and it's the worst MH game to date

As long as you're not an accuracyfag, you can emulate console games at well above their original quality levels quite cheap. Even later systems like the Switch only require a semi-recent (like within the last 2-5 years) CPU, not a high end GPU.
Emulation is quite accessible in that respect.
Even modern PC games don't REQUIRE top-of-the-line hardware from this year, but raging poorfags will claim that just because they can't afford a $2000 GPU, it's pointless to play games. You can still blow past the quality level of consoles at a reasonable price.

we haven't moved

limited fov trench v. huge vista

Nevermind the fact that you can't actually see the detail in the image because it's a screencap of a low quality YouTube video. This is 99.999999% of the way shit's argued here. The truth is irrelevant.

Depends on the type of cheese. I've had a nonzero amount of kills because I could tell that a shadow on the ground around a corner or under a fence was an enemy. If the shadow quality was just 'incoherent blob' and not 'blob that kinda looks like a gun + arms' I'd have died instead. Medium quality is best if you're a sweat. Or any lowest quality that produces an outlined shadow, and not a grey oval on the ground.

It's worth it if you feel it's worth it. The problem with autists on Anon Babble is they think their beliefs are what constitutes sane right thinking, and anything else is psychotic and deviant.
If you don't want nicer shadows, cool. Do what you do.
I feel RT shadows (with varying levels of opacity based on distance from the light source, and the proper edge softening) are worth it.
That doesn't mean you're wrong for wanting it the way you want it.

I agree that modern games are unoptimized trash, but comparing compressed youtube video screengrabs, which are themselves even further downsized to like 500px height each (50% rez, if it's 1080p footage) is disingenuous as fuck. Like, just look at your BF1 screengrab you dumb fucker... it's a 3 inch tall vaseline smear on my screen.

Games look better now than they did a decade ago, that's not remotely in question: the question is, are the relatively minor gains in visual fidelity worth the ballooning hardware requirements.

When you make a shitty argument you make other people that otherwise think the same as you (that games are unoptimized and graphical gains aren't worth their cost) look like retards by association. So stop doing that.

Games look better now than they did a decade ago

Yeah dude I love completely untuned PBR

I got called a shill because someone kept posting that low quality comparison of the dock right outside the Imperial Prison sewer in Oblivion (original vs remastered), and I posted a real screenshot. Apparently telling the truth is shilling now.

tech

I really love it when midwits use this stupid word to sound intelligent when it's really just some autist mashing his keyboard with a wide FOV angle to make it look faster and more engaging than it really is. At the same time everything he does could've been achieved with way less inputs but that would look lame for the brainrotten ADHD brain. This stupid shit really was the "DOOM Eternal weapon swapping.webm" before that even was a thing.

Games look better now than they did a decade ago, that's not remotely in question

Debatable especially if you consider all the dogshit software anti aliasing you either can't turn off at all or you can but it introduces shimmering in lighting and shadows because everything is built with that trash in mind.

There's no excuse for modern games looking like this.

lmao

yes they are

Apparently telling the truth is shilling now.

That's pretty much always the case, take the palworld Nintendo lawsuit for instance, if you correct someone about the patents being filed and published before the release of Palworld they'll screech and scream about you defending Nintendo.
They'll do anything they can to suppress facts.

mfw bought saturn and like 3 dozen games for ~300 dollars before all this shit went down

t. never played any game besides bf4 since 2013

lockerfags literally don't know any other skill besides shoot aek and jump strafe around corners

You NEED fast mouse flicks to utilize BF4 movement tech though, air strafing doesn't work if you aren't using your mouse, vouzou, rouzou etc. doesn't work if you aren't flicking hard.
Not my gameplay footage lol. Just showing what's possible on BF4.

These animals don't even know any Battlefield games before BC2 exist.

BF4 movement tech

lol
lmao

lol

lmao

Just because you don't know how to use them doesn't mean they don't exist. BF4 has more cracked out movement than Black Ops 6 which was supposed to be ''cracked out'' movement shooter lmao.
youtu.be/ajHWfrOgTO8

zoomalian mad

Calm down, I don't care about your gay fantasies. I remember how this "super epic tech" barely even worked on these cramped infantry only maps for CoD babies if you could aim and somewhat paid attention. Even more hilariously how it was completely nullified on normal Battlefield maps where these ADHD apes didn't even exist at all. It's just youtube bait for mentally stunted idiots who think throwing your mouse across the desk is the biggest display of skill.

neither battlefield nor call of duty have "cracked" movement kek

still better than any shitty hero shooter out there

Battlefield is guilty of all of these and judging by the leaks it looks like they still haven't learned their lesson

aim assist

Good job BTFOing yourself

They are doing them to attract new players. I personally don't care about them if base game still plays like Battlefield. Gauntlet mode though might be interesting. I haven't played Finals but Gauntlet mode sounds like Finals.

Why not just play Finals?

SBMM. I refuse to touch an FPS with SBMM. Not even CS or R6 has SBMM in unranked/casual playlists.

Video games used to be coded by whites and asians, ever since the industry has turned to jeets. We see the consequences.

If you play modern aaa then you have indian soul

indian soul

If you think those words can coexist, you're literally indian.

Yes, I am. Indian soul is a very beatiful and powerful like ue5
Your soul is ugly and weak like indie game or old game
sir you are poor i am sorry for you
Good bye
