Thread for Gamers VIII: Revenge of the Sh**

[New haven america]

Then they never got to the second half of the game, which is where it shines. The 3 main characters are all amazing, and the girl who gives you most of the fan service actually has an explanation as to why she wears her revealing clothes. It's an important part of her story that is revealed only in the second play through.

...You're just missing out on what may be called the best story on this generation of consoles. Or the best story of the last generation of consoles.

No one in literary criticism has ever said: "Yeah, that book's second half is great; It's worth it to slog through." Why shouldn't we have the same expectations of video games?

Yes they have, just like they've also done in film, TV, and video game criticism.

I'd use Rogue One as an example of a movie that's slow at first but then it makes it to the climax and it really picks up, in then one of the last scenes is just .

Speaking of movies, I decided to watch Ghostbusters 2016.
Didn't even finish it. Movie tried to be TOO funny...
THEY USED A HEARSE. A FREAKING HEARSE.

Assassin's Creed, though....THAT WAS AWESOME.
FIGHT ME.

*Gets on typing gloves* Okay
The past part was only two actions scene when it should've been a whole story. The present protag is a mostly non-existent pushover until the end. Most others characters didn't bother to be any better performance-wise.
I suppose if you condensed to pure fighting there are good bits in there but IMHO you can get a better experience by watching AC:BF's ship battles. Or one of the game trailers for that matter.

[Ameriganastan]

It's a sucky game.

You're just calling it that because you looked at the main character and went to conclusions.

Yuuuuuup. And I have no issue with that.

Speaking of movies?

*checks thread*

This is for games. Sure, I can get some overlap from these two industries, but the focus should be games.

So... what about video game movies?

Was that part not clear? A franchise crossing over (either way) should still mainly focus on the game(s) associated with it.

Ameri, you're a fan of MLP. And Steven Universe.
Judging a book by its cover shouldn't be something you even do anymore. You should know better by now and realize that maybe there's something more than a few panty-shots in this game.

This is all that game is. A beige hack and slash, banking on lazy fanservice.

And based on 1 gif, you know this how?

I've seen more than one. This is just my go-to one. Really encapsulates my point.

Not really, considering most Japanese games with a T and over rating will have things like that.

Except those games aren't praised like they're some radical reinvention of the genre. They're commented for what they are. And I'm doing the same to this game, cause it's exactly the same.

Name 5 characters from the game and a small snippet of what they're like.

Why?

[Onekawa-Nukanor]

I've found the Monster Hunter games suffer from slow start syndrome, at least the couple I tried.

You want to hunt and fight giant monsters! Just spend several hours doing what feels like skull smashingly dull busy work first.

Isn't that pretty much every game? You gotta do the dull crap before the fun starts.

I wanna see how much you actually know about the game outside of a few hand chosen gifs that are actually stuff caused by the player and are completely optional.

Jerking too far in the other direction here.

Just because something looks stupid doesn't mean a game is all that.
I know for a fact for one that isn't all you do or all you play as for that matter.
I mean feel free to complain(Hell i might if i had the game and was in the mood for it) about that aspect but don't be reductionist about it.

[Ameriganastan]

Right, the players designed her ass to be the visual focus of character. And the players designed the exploding skirt...

Just because something looks stupid doesn't mean a game is all that..

It does in this case.

The creators did design that, but the players are the ones who decide to blow off her skirt. Or look up the skirt. 95% of the time her butt isn't even in frame. Now, if you could...

Name 5 characters and a small snippet of their personality. Before you criticize a game, at least know more than "the main character gives off some fanservice."
Because, again, people don't play it just to look up 2B's skirt. I know I certainly don't.
So please, drop this idea that this game is all fanservice and no actual game. I am having an absolute blast so far, and I've been intrigued by the story this entire time. Heck, there was one sidequest I did that got me kind of teary eyed at the end.
And you know why that is?

Because of the character the quest was centered around. It wasn't because my eyes couldn't handle all the hotness, believe it or not.

[Ameriganastan]

Again, designed by the people who made the game. Cause it's nothing but cheap eye candy like I said. They knew that, and threw in such things to get buys. If this game was SO great, they wouldn't have needed to do that.

Because, again, people don't play it just to look up 2B's skirt. I know I certainly don't.

I guess you're a weird exception then. Cause all I ever see or hear about this game is "ASS!"

So please, drop this idea that this game is all fanservice and no actual game.

Not an idea. A fact.
