Did browsing /v/ influence your taste in vidya?
If so, are you proud of it?

Not a whole not for video games but definitely some other things

>>376251564
As far as /v/'s taste in vidya goes I had already played a lot of the things they consider good.

Seeing as I grew up with the people who started browsing in 06, a lot of /v/'s tastes were thing we were all playing at the time, so we had just as many people disagreeing as they were agreeing.

It was only after being here so long I realized the difference in subjectivity and objectivity.

And /v/, as shitty as it is, made me realize that even though a game may feel good to play, Im probably being cheated without knowing it.

For example, I never really picked up that, WoW was really the turning point in which mmo's started to fall out of the scene. At WoW's release I thought it was incredible, and looking back now I realized that compared to other games at the time WoW's depth was shin deep.

>>376251564
It influenced my taste in porn for sure.

Also, it made me realize that there are ways to analyze games besides how fun they are to play.

I don't have as much fun playing vidya anymore.
>>
I was always a JRPG weeb, and the only difference /v/ made is that it expanded my tastes.

I used to only play Final Fantasy, Pokemon, and Tales.

Now I also play Megaten, Star Ocean, Etrian Odyssey, and many other series.
>>
>>376251564
No. After being recommended Demon's Souls when it first came out by /v/ I realize not to listen to any of their dumb shit and just form my own opinions.

In my experience, /v/ tends to hate good games. So if I see everyone shitting on a game, I know to check that game out and possibly play it. Had moderate success so far.

>>376251564
Yes
I used to buy games if I like the cover art, now I fully observe reviews and analyze if my $60 was worth it
>>
>>376251564
Only reason why I got into bloodborne was cause of /v/

every game is shit

>>376251564
/v/ shits on good games and praises dark souls like its the second coming of the Messiah.

SPOILER ALERT: Dark Souls isn't that good.
>>
No.
Yes.
>>
>>376253935
Would you say that most games /v/ praises are pretentious? I kinda have the feeling that MGS isn't as good as it's considered to be.
>>
>>376251564
To some extent yes, I used to be kind of a redditing douche who praised games like Bioshock Infinite and No Man's Sky.
That me probably would've thought Overwatch was the best game of the decade.
I do however enjoy mostly gaming on Xbone since most non-RTS PC exclusives I'm interested in get ported these days.
>>
>>376251564
no, but I got exposed to new game series.
that's the only good thing.
other than that I fucking hate /v/.
>>
>>376251564
Yes.

I hate anime even more.
>>
I got to try some stuff I would have never thought of picking up do disscusions on here. I wouldn't say it changed my tastes entirely but it did broaden my horizons on the games I play. Without /v/ I woulndn't have played any of the soulsborne series , persona/smt or monhun.
>>
Yeah it somehow made me not ever play the Souls series at all which Im sure I would have otherwise enjoyed to an obsessive level.
>>
>>376254073
No, I'm just saying they have shit tastes. Metal Gear Solid is pretty good but it does have its downfalls.
>>
>>376253207
Yes. One of the best ps4 games. It has its issues like the vial system and the poor frame rate but overall it was an enjoyable experience.
>>
>>376251564
Hahahahahahaha fuuuuuck no. This place is full of antisocial bitter retards that hate any AAA except Kojima and praise the fuck out of garbage like STALKER. That think Mario SS is better than TLoU. That would rather play Vanquish than GTAV.

The only times I agree with you idiots are games nobody can deny are great like Deus Ex. I'd never listen to waifu pantysniffers about anything that involves fun.

Why is strawberry such a shitty overrated berry?
>>
>>376251564
I feel like half of the games Ive played since 2010 are because of /v/

why are you here?
for real, normalfaggot

what the fuck are you doing on 4chan?

>taking /v/edditors seriously

lmao no
>>
It made me expand my horizons in JRPGs and kick my multiplayer grind addiction.
>>
>>376251564
No. Few times I have tried games that were recommended by /v/ , disappointed every time.

It is why I played neptunia, since then I haven't touched any other weeb game, even though I got the platinum of two of them
>>
>>376256819
Meant to type /v/ but I guess that could also be true ironically
>>
browsing /v/ helped me learn the difference between when a popular game is actually bad or when somebody is being contrarian to shit on something popular
>>
>>376251564
Yes and yes. Never had friends who played much vidya when I was young or even now, so I get all my recommendations from here. only steered me wrong once or twice
>>
>>376256615
Most games here are shit
>>
Nope, but it exposed me to a couple of series that aren't popular in my country.

For example Metal Gear or Deus Ex.

In my opinion /v/ has a really good taste.

>>376252812
I'm sorry, but The Witcher 3 is Literally Everything Wrong with Modern Vidya: The Game and it's no surprise that /v/ hates an open world pseudoRPG with bamham combat and handholding worse than in Skyrim.

I really enjoy the story part though and the books are nice.

t. polish person
>>
>>376251564
Not really, surprisingly. I got into some more action games than I used to, but it hasn't changed my tastes overall.
