>for every dollar I spend on a game, I should get at least 1 hour of fun interesting gameplay.

RPGs were my go to for this money to fun ratio. now with less free time it has moved to roguelikes.

I love knowing I don't contribute meaningfully to gaming, its the only reason I'm okay with not being catered to.

>>257576292

I think the last game I paid full price for was Ratchet & Clank: A Crack in Time. It was a good game but looking back jeez the 80 dollarydoo's I paid for it are a lot.

Even those EB games sales where shit was $20 or so is expensive now that I compare it with Steam.

Ultima Online was the last good MMO, all others are just glorified slot machines.

Falcom games on steam have easily been my best value per buck, seeing how they start cheap and are frequently on sale

No game is worth money.
Nothing, all you are getting is a fucking disk, that's it.

Why not invest the money on something REAL

Don't buy any single player game for more than $20, if it isn't worth playing in 5 years it was never worth playing.

There are enough free games and games that you can emulate where buying more than 1-2 games a year is a waste of money, and buying consoles is a massive waste of money.

Never pay any attention to prerelease media or reviews of any kind, all of them are marketing lies.

I'm embarrassed at how many years I spent being the stereotypical "nintendo is for babies" faggot. When I see people talking about the Wii U not being a "real console" I get secondhand embarrassment and just hope they're dumb edgy teens like I was.

And now Nintendo are stooping to preorder bonuses, just because of faggot hardkore REAL GAMERS. I hate them, and I hate myself. This is the nightmare we made for ourselves.

Never ever pre-order a game, no matter how hype it looks. Master of Orion 3 delivered the first blow, and Spore drove that lesson home. I never buy a game now unless I've either played it, or have watched videos of real people playing it.

What the fuck are you even playing right now? I want you to fucking tell me right now

Always pirate singleplayer games to see if it's good or not. If you need someone else to review the game for you, you're a shitter.

>>257579776
The Waiting Game. Probably one of the longest games anyone will ever play.

Cpma was/is the height of fps depth and skill and also has the best netcode and input I've ever experienced. It's ruined gaming for me. Once you live like a king everything else feels like peasantry.

I enjoy other games, it just pains me to know that the standard was set and held by a mod on a game from 1999

fuck you people, get some money and stop being poorfags

More like never pay full price for a "movie" game that's only gonna last at best five hours.

Stop playing b2p or p2p games. That means single player games too. it's an experience paling in comparison to the ones offered by the hundreds of f2p mmos out there.

>>257576292
When it comes to physical copies of niche games, just buy the damn thing. I've fucked myself in the past by hesitating.

One example is not buying the full set of .hack when all 7 games were staring me in the face because I wanted to play them in order. It took me about 3 years to find Mutation, Outbreak, Quarantine, and the three G.U. games.

Nothing. I knew I wanted one eventually, and so I took the opportunity when I had the chance to get a PS4 for $300, but holy shit is there nothing to do on it. Every single one of the PS+ games besides Strider was garbage, and despite me trying a bunch of AAA games on it, the only ones I enjoyed enough to keep were Metal Gear which I played for about 20 hours and inFamous, in which I got the platinum trophy, which requires two playthroughs and all collectibles, within 15 hours.

And the two games I would have gotten and loved to play with friends this holiday were Battlefield Hardline and Evolve, both of which got pushed to next year, so it will be collecting dust for another six months.

I know games will come out for it and I likely wouldn't have gotten a much better deal on it, so I didn't waste my money, but in the meantime the thing sucks balls.

>>257577116
Same issue here, only it was GTA V, and stung worse because I got Okami at the same time for a third of the price and got double the playtime.

The PS3 taught me that consoles are not worth buying on release and that you should wait at least 3 years.

>>257576292

My naive brain used to believe small developers getting bought by huge publishers was a good thing because now they'll have a bottomless budget and therefore their games will be that much more awesome. Now I know there are so many other implications to selling out.

Are there really no games that you guys like enough to pay full price for at launch? I don't care if they're $100, there is no way I'm missing the opportunity to play a Metal Gear or Smash Bros. or Metroid game as soon as I possibly can.

>>257581190

Alright, I'll admit to being slow, but it IS good advice.

Another bit: Only donate to a server if it's your absolute favorite, and even then, only if you have money to burn.

> mfw console games cost nearly $90 in my country
I'm not even in australia, nigger. At least PC vidya is reasonably priced at around $30.

>>257581245
but 40 is also expensive? and 35? and 22?

20 is just an unrealistically low number to get any game the year it came out. especially nintendo games. if the game drops that low within months, it must have been shit and you shouldn't want to play it.

I can see "don't pay full price" as a good rule, because there are always sales going on and shit. but there's no reason to be a skinflint and wait until they drop past your arbitrary threshold.

It's similar in my country. PC versions are half the price of the console version, it's crazy. The only exception are Blizzard games, which cost about as much as console games.

>>257582004

but I at least always knew season passes were retarded

Or Xcom, Civ, all these games where I've hit 100 hours + and payed full price, I really don't care

Fuck I even played full price for battlefield 3 when it was out, but I played the shit out of it. Same with bad company 2 (still my favourite shooter)

But yeah, modern "cinematic" games should go fuck themselves

PC is the superior system for playing games.

Consoles are the superior system for playing games with friends.

If it's a shooter with a gimmick, it's a bad shooter.

If it's gimmicks with a shooter, it's Half Life.

I pre-ordered the Rome 2: Total War CE, I got a broken game that I couldn't play a few days before everyone else, and because it's hooked on steam, I had to wait until the official time of release before I could play it.

Never again.

>MMOs are not worth playing
It took me a while to realize this but I feel it's definitely the truth. Every hour you spend playing an MMO could be an hour spent playing an actual game, or better yet, being productive.

>>257583009
The only reason to sell a game is if it sucks and you don't want to play it again.

>>257583006
I'd buy tickets in advance because I hate waiting in lines. but that's for the cinema.

I'd preorder a figma, because those fuckers DO sell out.

I'd preorder a game from my local non-gamestop game store, because they get games in stock based on preorders. I didn't do it for Pikmin 3 and they just didn't get it because literally no one pre-ordered it.


In general you're right, of course.

Yeah, people say "never buy a game at $60 because you might not but 300 hours into it", but if you get 20 or even 10 hours out of it right at launch and you feel satisfied and done with it, you can just sell it to Gamestop for usually $40 depending on how big the game is.

$20 is not bad at all for getting to playthrough a game in a month.

I never understood this mentality. If there's a game you want that's going to have a large launch, you only gain things from preordering. It doesn't cost extra, you're guaranteed a copy, and you might get a little preorder bonus.

>>257583006
Oh my god, Dragon's Crown grills are so fucking hot.

>Never pay more than 20 dollars on a game
Are Nintendo games or limited physical editions of games an exception?
Nintendo games seem to always keep their price high
Rare games with low amount of copies turn really expensive too

>>257582004
It really depends on what you consider to be the "right price" for something. I don't think there's anything wrong with having a threshold for price, if a person is willing to wait until something drops into a reasonable price range, then more power to them. Video games are not food, they are not a necessity, and you are definitely capable of waiting to play one as long as you have minimal self-control. It's wise to think about how much you're spending for something that you may only get 5 hours of entertainment out of or that you may not even end up liking.

>>257583692
when was the last time you payed for a bad game?

I don't pay for anything unless I know I'm going to at least "like" it. and I'm saying that because I think about it like that, I don't spend my money unless I'm sure I really WANT it, I don't end up playing anything I don't like.

I can't remember the last time I had buyer's remorse, because I force myself to be careful.

But when I was a high school and would just pirate the fuck out of everything, I played a ton of shit and most of it was just that - shit. I'm like an opposite of tired gamer, now that I've reduced my intake to things that are actually relevant to my interests, I enjoy every game I play.

>>257583928
Seriously.

Gen 6 games still look amazing today too. They just need to render at a higher res.

>>257583726
Well, things can differ.
Digital preorders are fucking retarded, and while stuff like preorder swag (IE a poster or something) is neat, too many games are giving out ingame incentives.

>>257583356
Holy shit, how long are those kid's knees?

>>257584201
Yeah that's the problem with setting price limits on certain games. You wait for a price drop, and you end up waiting so long that all the copies are gone and they're being sold for an even higher price. Look at Xenoblade Chronicles, or Metroid Prime Trilogy, or the Metal Gear Solid Legacy.

I just recently gave my PS3 and games to a friend, and I have no idea WHAT happened to that collector's edition. I just buy all of my games on Steam these days to prevent shit like this from happening.

I've bought Morrowind more times than Oblivion, and somehow despite everything I bought Skyrim TWICE.

>>257586702
I guess it depends on how often you buy games and how much you are willing to spend on a hobby since many others cost nothing at all.

>>257586927
why are you so retarded

>>257584357
>when was the last time you payed for a bad game?
When I was buying games regularly. I still buy games occasionally, but only when I am 100% certain that I like those game (usually because I've already played them beforehand) I pirate games that I'm not sure if I will like or not, because I'm careful with how I spend my money and who I support.

>I don't pay for anything unless I know I'm going to at least "like" it
How do you know that you are going to like it if you haven't actually played it? The only way to know for sure before you buy it is either through a demo or pirating. Gameplay videos and reviews/previews are unrelaibale and no substitue for hands on experience. The only way you'll never end up playing anything you don't like is if you play an extremely conservative number of games. Because almost everyone who has more than a casual interest in games endeds up with at least one game they didn't like.

Most people aren't that careful with what they play, so they end up playing a bunch of shit that they in turn rationalize as good games by post-purchase rationalization. There is no cognitive bias when pirating games though, a game is no worse because I pirate instead of buying it.

>>257586927

>I bought an Xbone

Generally regret it, could have spent the money on car parts which I would have gotten way more enjoyment out of.

The Xbone isn't that bad, I really wanted to play Forza 5, but that was a huge disappointment, though they're slowly making up for it with free shit. BF4 was okay, Trials Fusion was good enough, Watchdogs was fucking awful and that's all I've really played on it thus far.

I'm still waiting on The Division, which I'm holding out hope for, and I'll probably be getting Project Cars too.

All in all the consoles biggest downfall for me is that it tries to do EVERYTHING via the internet, rather than using it's own operating system and hardware.

And when I say everything, I mean everything. You wanna look at your friends list? Let's stream the menu, graphics and all. Wanna look at your achievements? Let's stream all of that too!

It does absolutely nothing client side, if you put a disk in, you have to install it. So will the console use the data on the disk and copy it over? Will it fuck, it'll try and download every single bit of it. When you're somebody like me with pic related internet, it gets pretty fucking annoying quickly when you want to install a game, and rather than doing it via the disk in about 10 minutes, it thinks trying to download it over the course of two days is the more logical option.

All in all, extremely disappointed. Things may improve but it's a fucking terrible start.

>>257581798
That's because you're a manchild with no self-control.

The game is going to be exactly the same in a year when it's half off as it is right now. Do you really have so little going on in your life that you can't do something equally entertaining until then?

>>257576292
Any multiplayer-centric game should be bought upon release since it is useless once public focus is shifted elsewhere. That said, most of them are shit and should be skipped. Single player games are the only games that can be enjoyed even years down the road.

Halo 2 on XBL taught me this. Those days were some of the most fun of my life, but short-lived. I play mostly RPGs now.

There is literally nothing wrong with microtransactions.

You should reward people who pay to play, and anyone who disagrees is either a neckbeard who lives in his mom's basement with no income, or a 13 year old who has no income. AT LEAST they re-balance the class and nerf it (I don't play LoL I'm just going by the argument put forth int he article), it's way worse if a game just leaves OP people in the game

People have to realize that games doesn't run on magic and dreams, but on tangible servers that cost money and run up the electricity bill

Nintendo is home and hearth.

Sorry, I'd be lying to myself if I said I didn't feel this way.

>all these people saying "dont pay more than 20 for a game"

shit man, I could at least understand if this was 1995 or earlier, but twenty greenpapers don't really get you as far as it used to. I could understand 30 or maybe 40 if the game was really good, but 20 dollars is like taking a shit all over the dev's faces.

and yes I get that its a "epic Monkey Island reference", but if you actually let that influence you, you're a man child with no sense of the value of money.

I've learned to always own a PS1, in case I should happen to find a copy of Final Fantasy Tactics in my travels. Being forced to pass up the opportunity to acquire that game would probably break my psyche.

>>257589094

It looked promising, but I feel like we've already waited too long for it, considering it was one of the games they showed us before we even had the console, I can't help but think we should have had it sooner.

Might be good though, I guess we'll just have to wait and see, but I'm certainly not getting hyped.

>>257589054

>>257589339
Personally I'm willing to wait longer if that means they're putting more time and content into it. Also hoping for a pc release, I can't remember if they announced if there will be one or not, either way ill be picking it up I would just prefer it to be on pc.

>>257589564

>>257589794
>Personally I'm willing to wait longer if that means they're putting more time and content into it.

You raise a valid point actually, I'm glad they're waiting to actually release a finished product rather than just pushing out like R* did with GTA 5, or Turn 10 with Forza 5. Honestly sometimes playing Forza, you genuinely have to question whether they did play test it at all, so many things are so horrifically broken.

>>257589950
Just avoid threads that talk about the game. I just finished Xenoblade Chronicles 2 days ago for the first time with no spoilers. That game came out 4 years ago. The only time people spam spoilers for a game in a lot of unrelated threads are if it's really hyped or something. And even then it only lasts like a week. From there it's up to you to resist the temptation of discussing a game here till you've played the whole thing.

No dev cares about you and you don't owe any of them your money. Only buy games that you actually want to buy.

>>257589564

>I'm still waiting on The Division, which I'm holding out hope for

That E3 presentation was so cringeworthy

The only good games are the ones that can be played for the first time years after release and still be enjoyed.

Always wait at least 6 months before you buy a game. If nobody is talking about it 6 months later, it was not a good game and you shouldn't spend your money on it.

Nintendo games don't get cheaper.

guys, one thing I haven't learned is to not take video games seriously. I'm too much of a role player and I care too much about the objective when I play battlefield and I tend to get kind of butthurt and grumpy when my team loses. I've also been recently getting unreasonably angry when I play against friends on Super Smash Brothers project M.

in project ends case, I can play fine until my friends do something that I deem to be cheap or unfair, like avoiding me until they can get the Smash Ball or just item whoring in general or using try hard tournament level moves on a game that was supposed to be casual and fun. Stuff like this gets me stupidly frustrated, & I know I have a problem with this, what can I do to lighten up my own mood?

Why would you place yourself in this shit show? You're either retarded enough to play a part in this rat race where absolutely nothing productive is accomplished, or you're smart enough to realize 99% of people you're arguing against have no idea what they are talking about. There is no reason to engage in public discourse whatsoever over the internet, and even in real life. Explaining things to people solves nothing, all that really matters is action. Stop feeding into peoples stupidity, if someone says something stupid ok ignore them they're retarded.

you're forgetting about the memes, Anon, the dominant/correct idea is more likely to spread and stick than incorrect ideas

think of that retard whose nonsensical statement you just disproved, maybe that guy, or somebody else that previously agreed with him will suddenly feel convinced of your view.
That person will then later on defend their (=your) idea when it's challenged by some other retard, and perhaps convince more people, who in turn may also continue this process and create an ever growing tree of memetic transmissions

Not only should you spoil yourself on games before they come out, but it's an absolute necessity to know what you're paying for in advance

All the games I buy now are less than €20. I have never liked a full priced game. €20 or less games always prioritize gameplay over everything else.

Life is good!

>>Collector's Edition for PC because m-muh coin
>>Steam version for PC because m-muh no disc

What did you dooo

No,seriously. There is not one game you cannot patch to play without CD, how are you so fucking retarded?

>>257622121
I'm pretty sure GTA 5 was one of the greatest selling game of all time, was it not? take that for what you will.

>>257622832
That's the point. They made millions and millions of copies.

>>257589651
In ireland and im pretty sure most of western europe its 60 euro 70 euro for new gen games. That's 93 dollars. Imagine paying 93 dollars for a game thinking it was going to be great and it turning out to be shit or like 4 hours long or something. Game prices are absolute bullshit.

I bought San Andreas 3 times, almost 4.

First on PC at release, then when I got a new computer my brother lost one of the install discs.

Copy for PS2, which got scratched to shit also from brother

3rd also for PS2, which either got scratched or lost, by my brother

I'm tempted to buy it on Steam at the next sale

>>257623292
I pay €200 on one night out at the weekend in Ireland. We make decent money in this country. €60 is not a lot of money if you have a job.

The mistake you are making is buying €60 games though. AAA is always shit.

>>257623149
Heavily modded, didn't even buy it and got the "full" experience.

>>257623502
inb4 your brother has your steam account banned.

>always play the waiting game. That game that came out is going to be on sale with all the dlc very cheap in 2 years. You have plenty of games to catch up on anyway

>>257623586
>We make decent money in this country
Compared to third world countries yeah maybe but in reality the entire employment system is borderline abuse I had to do 3 internships before getting a job that pays 250 a week. If you're making decent money, fair play and congrats but most of the country, especially Dublin isn't.
I also learned my lesson about paying that much for games. Last straw was Skyrim, game wasn't even finished and they had the audacity to charge 60 for it.

>>257623292
Isn't minimum wage $25 an hour or some shit there?

>>257624226
You are on less than minimum wage dude. Are you talking about jobs bridge? Yes that is a scam and you are being taken advantage off. Its a disgrace in fact.

You get paid reasonably well in a real job though.

>>257624456
€8.50 so a bit more than $10 dollars I think.

>>257624456
8.65
>>257624461
I was on jobsbridge, I was forced into it by the social. Now I'm working 40 hours a week in the only job that would hire me. It was literally this or more jobbridge. I'm just happy to have money.

Feels good being a PCfat. I can choose to support a video game dev and when I do, it doesn't cost me $40+ and a trip to shitstop.

>>257624685
Sorry to hear it. Why not go to Aus or Canada? they are supposed to be happy to have us. Things are turning around.

After food and bills and all I have about 20 euro at the end of the week. So if its still shit by the time I have that kind of money I'll definitely be off, untill then I'm just going to suck it up and get on with it. Could be worse.

Any Smash Bros game post n64. Any good RPG. MOST Metroid games (you know which one isn't). All Zelda games (yes including SS, it was fun). W101 was worth 60 dollars but I got it for 30.

>>257618462
The one on the right looks like a PS2 game.

Updates:
>Never buy a game that isnt finished and that at least has some devs working on patches and updates
>Never believe From, EA, ND, Bethesda, Sony, Ubisoft, etc... lies
>If pirated and liked support the game
>Once a game goes gold the next updates comes probably in a month or two so wait if you are seeing too many people complain about bugs
>Never get a MP game if you live in a 3rd world country except they have servers for your region
>Greece, USA, Russia, Slav, Brazil doesnt matter where it comes if its good its good. Keep the prejudice in society not on vidya it may turn you away from great games
>Get adblock the ads really work, trust me i almost bought titanfall.
>Always give it a second try. Good graphics attracts but good gameplay charms.
>Its a game, always remember that. Not a movie nor a book
>Have fun

>>257621198
This only ever happens with big games and even then very rarely in this day and age. You are falling for the exact shit he's talking about.

Even then go to a department store, they never sell out of anything because no one thinks to go there. Bookstore in my town always sold out of the new Harry Potter and there would always be a stack of them in K Mart that me and my dad were smart enough to go to.

>>257579776
I bought a PS4 and I mainly use it as a $400 Battlefield 4 machine. I feel pretty bad for buying this early but I had the extra money so I decided why not. I bought all my PS4 games at a discount. $40 for Battlefield 4, $40 for Killzone, $20 for Ghosts and $40 for Black Flag. I played maybe 30 hours top for everything but Battlefield, which I have about 400 hours into. Don't Starve is pretty comfy so I spend a lot of time on that as well. Overall, I'd say not worth it yet. I'd wait for a decent bundle, more games, and when they finally decide to support your phone's, music and etc. I thought this was next-gen Sony. Fuck me.
