Games will never have the feeling of adventure and SOUL ever again, ever since the eye of capitalism settled its gaze upon this medium and determined the most efficient way to squeeze profit out of it was live service games and min-maxxing dev time to make non-distinct slop that sells fast but is ultimately unenjoyable -- the virtual equivalent of mcdonalds.
Games will never have the feeling of adventure and SOUL ever again...
BotW was the greatest adventure game ever made.
You won't believe it but I got that feeling from Pokemon Scarlet recently.
Crystal project
objectively worse than Majora's Mask in having a fleshed out, living world
objectively worse than Ocarina of Time in dungeons and music
objectively worse than Twilight Princess in aesthetics and vibes
objectively worse than Wind Waker's open world despite WW being 90% water
weapon degradation
lol
lmao
GSC is so soulless it's unbelievable. Look at those lazily copypasted tiles and sprites with an ugly patchy coloring job. Not to mention all the soulful bugs removed that made the gameplay interesting.
ever since the eye of capitalism settled its gaze upon this medium
So 1970s?
Imagine being Nintendo and you've managed to keep this huge sprawling underground area a secret prior to the release of tears of the kingdom
But the game leaks and not only does everyone find out, everyone is PLAYING IT ON PC 3 weeks prior to release.
For all the people calling Nintendo overly litigious, I would throw hands if someone did this to me and I was a game developer.
Fuck the internet.
Tears of the Kingdom was better. I say that as someone who got the game as a gift for my birthday almost a year later. I thought I had enough of BotW for a decade but TotK sucked me right back in and I managed to eke out almost 200 hours in it.
!!!
I love TotK to bits but I'm eternally disappointed that there's not one actual village down there. There's just a bunch of Yiga encampments and 2 dungeons that you can't enter until you do things on the surface.
I was so hyped when I found out about the Underground. I thought I was going to find Subrosia. But no, it's just boss refights, Poes, and Yigas.
Gen 2 is the worst of the 5 good Pokemon gens, numbnuts. Fuck you for liking that garbage. At least you're not as subhuman as anyone who enjoys Gens 6 - 9.
SaGa game gets released
Play it without using guides or anything external to the actual game
Have the time of my life
Idk man, it sounds like a skill issue
Reminder
normoids prefer empty open world with copy-pasted layouts because it's "more impressive" to their goldfish attention spans that can't notice the repetition over finely crafted linear or hub-based experiences like OoT.
Normies are so fucking retarded, we're doomed.
Did you just turn 14 or something?
Thank you mr craft if only you were fibbybibby.
Only on Anon Babble can you spew out run on sentences with garbage in them.
OoT fucking sucked. It felt like the devs were trying to hold your hand to guide you to the fun instead of letting you make your own fun. The dungeons were especially joyless. The Forest, Fire, and Water Temples all almost made me drop the game because they were so bad. The only time I had any fun with OoT was during the boss fights and when I was on the overworld exploring at my own leisure.
I will never understand OoTfags. It can't be anything besides nostalgia.
5 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 7 > 1 > 6 > 9 > 8
BW > BW2
GSC > HGSS
5 > 4 > 3 > 1 > 2 > (power gap) > 6 > 7 > 8 > 9
Both B2W2 and HGSS are better than BW and GSC in every measurable way. B2W2 are, in fact, the best mainline Pokemon games ever made. The only games that are better are Mystery Dungeon Red/Blue and Explorers.
Also Smogon did nothing wrong and Pokemon Showdown with Smogon rules is the only way to enjoy Pokemon post-2013.
It's not just "normoids" (normalfags, you newfag) that prefer open world games. It's not because it's "more impressive", it's because of freedom. If you want a linear experience go and watch a movie or buy a PS5.
It's really telling how the genre known for dispersing content more sporadically is the one you paint as being for the ADHD-addled.
shits on GSC for something that RBY had
Why do borts pretending to be genwunners always do this?
This is just what Gameboy games looked like. Although I guess you were't born yet so I'll forgive you.
in every measurable way.
BW2 have a worse story and the most important character appears only for 5 minutes at the end
GSC has a beautiful sprite work and soundtrack
someone says johto bad
it must be a bort!
rent free yawnie.
I've found a game full of soul and pure kino every year for the last decade. You're just a faggot who won't grow up and play new games. Little aspie scared to put down his gamecube controller, GBA and pick up a mouse
Stupid goy! Eat your slop!
Pokemon sure as hell won't
i spent over 70 hours in this game wondering when the fun was supposed to begin. OoT was better.
Is this the thread or isn't it?
this is the thread
FPBP BOOMERS BTFO
didn't someone else already do this? why even bother
is this the thread?
claudes about to make it out of the forest!
THIS IS NOW A CLAUDE THREAD
I have defeated the Weedle
What are some good Pokémon games that aren't made by Nintendo? I already played their good pokemon games. Pokerogue isn't really a pokemon game but I've been playing that lately
Was looking for a game with actually cool designed mons that give Gen 1-2 vibes, or a porn game pokemon style. Never played any hackrom
this is NOT the thread
go make a proper one with claude in the filename
Fool's Gold is Gen 2 but with a twist on designs. It's a hack though
based, claude is unstoppable
he just made it out of Viridian Forest
HE MADE IT TO PEWTER
FREEDOM
ONE SMALL STEP FOR CLAUSKE
ONE GIANT LEAP FOR ANTHROPIC
3500 STEPS
THIS IS FUCKING HUGE
in 3,500 steps. That's pretty good!
we are so back
That’s because you aren’t a 10 year old anymore. It has nothing to do with capitalism
Gotta be honest, I dislike the overt hints the devs gave Claude
Yeah but it will at least make it more fun to see how he handles anything past where he hasn't been before. Shut up and eat the content
Shut up and eat the content
Him doing things right because of hints was never the appeal of Claude. The appeal of Claude was that he got no hints, and in the previous run where most of the memes and excitement came from, Claude was receiving no hints.
Adding hints for the sake of progress does muddy the water a bit more.
being stuck at Mt. Moon for 8 weeks is not appealing. We've seen it. Claude is gonna discover loops we had never even thought possible. One big beautiful loop.
get stealth'd, faggots
posted 2 minutes after this thread was seized by Claude
nah this is the thread
The dev just hand waived people complaining in chat with
I made an executive decision
He doesn't care and sees the pre-Rock Tunnel stuff as a rerun he just wants to get through before getting to new "content".
He's retarded and wrong and I was luckily in chat to tell him but it didn't matter.
fucking asshole went too hard on the camo
BW2 have a worse story and the most important character appears only for 5 minutes at the end
lol in other words you're a homosexual who wants to get sodomized by n. bw has a shit pokedex, a shit map, and dogshit content (when's the last time you did a musical). bw2 mogs it in every way that actually matters
GSC has a beautiful sprite work and soundtrack
gsc, specifically crystal, is better, but no version of johto is good
being stuck at Mt. Moon for 8 weeks is not appealing.
If Claude had just whizzed through Mt. Moon the first time, and whizzed through the trashed house the first time, the build up, the fun wouldn't be worth it.
This is just becoming Gemini plays pokemon, it's the same idea. Speeding up >progress for the sake of "content". Gemini dev is much more hands on and gave Claude a lot more in the way of information which allowed him to brute force the game. That didn't lead to any real fun and it beat the game. Nobody cared.
Claude got stuck in Mt. Moon for 8 weeks because a series of unfortunate events involving a bicycle and a diglett. Not every Claude is guaranteed to go down the same path. All the hints do is reduce the legitimacy of the actions he's taking and by speeding up progress for the sake of "content", you are missing the point of what made the journey fun and rewarding the first time around.
This is a new claude. Let him figure it out on his own. This is not a race to the finish. This is an experiment.
Play Indie games made by passionate people instead of AAA sloppa
You're an experiment
agreed
How does he know where the obstacles are but not understand he can't move past them?
what is the difference between linear, level based, and hub based?
Claude is blind
westerners cannot self-insert in something that's not grounded in realism
Can't believe Sand is fucking DEAD
This is the second one of these "nu Pokemon is surprisingly wonderful" posts I've seen this week.
Are you being paid for some "organic" looking spam?
Who exactly would be paying me to advertise a free game everyone plays via emulation?
Sheltered bubble children like you get to come on here and whine about capitalism like that's the reason the modern industry suddenly sucks but when I actually try to explain to someone the cultural trends and market forces that are actually ruining video games I get a 24 hour ban for breaking the "no politics" rule. Get a job, faggot.
I thought I was going to find Subrosia
This world isn't anywhere near that kind, sadly...
The esl epidemic is at an all time high
I don't think it was that great
Yeah as a kid it felt great but after many years of bitter disappointment you realise that games aren't filled with as many secrets as you thought they did
I remember thinking I could go to the moon if I caught the right day in hoenn
