All correct.

Is this a thread to basically hate on every popular western game and act like indie and Japanese games are better?

all me, trolled hard /v/ lol

Every single game that is praised for its the stories quality and quality alone. Video games are not well written, being well written among video game is the equivalent of being the smartest kid on the short bus. RPGs are the only genre that need story and even then the quality of the story is clearly not a factor in how much people will enjoy the RPG because some truly abysmal stories are attached to highly successful RPGS

The only times that video game stories are impressive is when they USE THE FUCKING MEDIUM to enhance the telling of the story.

Stuff like Bastion, Transistor, and Portal

this. video game writing is bad by default, not only because most of the time it has a poor/hack writer behind it, but also because it almost always never uses gameplay itself to tell the story.

developers would rather try to copy movies and TV than do anything unique.

First post best post

Also all Souls games

I literally cannot think of a single game without a story (or at least one without a heavy emphasis on it) that I would consider a masterpiece.

Yeah, okay.
See this shit constantly on /v/ but just because you say it doesn't mean its true.
When everyone argument for this is "Video game stories are bad because they are video games and I said so." I'll just keep dismissing it.

Its like it doesn't have a world renowned author writing the story you wouldn't acknowledge it as good.

You are the one who is trying to hard.

>>376232978

Then you must have bad taste.

aw, what's the matter? are The Last of Us and Undertale some of your top games, anon?

it's okay to be easily entertained by mediocrity, anon, really it is. just don't pretend like you're doing anything otherwise.

sad

Nobody praises KH's story. The absolute closest thing it gets to praise is people saying it's so bad it's good or it's an entertaining trainwreck.

Sound argument, I really have something to go off of with this.

Criticism isn't bad, what's bad is judging people based on what they like in a medium you honestly share with them and having a superiority complex about said videogames that you play on a Mongolian quilting website.
It's sad. People like you are the reason this hobby is still looked at like a man child's waste if time.
How do you have friends with an attitude like that without them thinking you don't want to do anything but hate things all day?

>this hobby is still looked at like a man child's waste if time.
Because that's what it is? Video games are glorified toys and you cannot deny this. All video game writing is bad by default and can never exceed anything from literature or film and television.

Sorry you're mad that you feel like you're being attacked for enjoying a manchild's pass-time

ori and the blind forest

pretty sure everyone was so blinded by the opening that they didn't realize the whole story (and the game) was a load of shit

>I'm going to shit on you about what you like, on a board about things you like, but I'm still better than you: the post.

Crabs in a barrel seems more and more accurate for this place every day.
