Broke new ground, nice

>>376741298
no one uses the argument "it took them 12 years!" in defense of DNF, let alone defend that game much at all.

Owl Boy would be better suited for that image. Actually overrated trash that people actually cry "but it took them 10 years!!!"

How the fuck did pong do nothing new? It was the first multiplayer sports game.

>>376742159
No, ass creed is primarily. Ubisoft started the current formula

>>376742106

Undertale and a lot of PC indie games.

The point is, breaking new ground means you have been infiluential enough for devs to start copying you. I don't see anyone copying Automate very soon.

>>376742147
>>376742235
Literally kill yourself.

>>376742285
>breaking new ground means you have been infiluential enough for devs to start copying you
Nope, retard.

>>376742281

It definitely was the first, but Skyrim made the scope of openworld games mindblowing to people back in 2011. You can hear people saying "We'll make this game just as big or bigger than Skyrim" but you never hear them use AssCreed as a comparison.

Golden Eye and Wolfenstein

>>376742275

> It was the first multiplayer sports game.

I was giving you the benefit of the doubt by assuming you just didn't understand me, but it turns out you're actually retarded.

Metal Gear Solid. Pretty much created the whole "cinematic" games, but did it before everyone else and is still very unique.

>>376741194
I think that's kinda the opposite, that's more like first one through the door, but even in that case you already had fully 3D games before Mario 64. If not Mario then it would have been any number of games and in a way it already was.

Breaking new ground is something that wasn't an obvious conclusion but something that exists because of ingenuity and trying something no one ever thought of before despite the fact the tools were there the whole time.

>>376742285
Haven't played Undertale but I doubt it's the same as the decision you have to make after the end.
If it is that's just a blatant rip off on nier's part.
Anyway I disagree with your definition of breaking new ground.

Only right answer so far far.

>>376742797
Yeah, super mario 64.

>>376742894

>maybe if you explained why I was retarded for calling the sky green instead of just laughing at me I would understand.

Pong was directly inspired by games that came before it and was one of many tennis-like games released at the time. It's very sad that this needs to be explained to anyone browsing /v/.

Ultima Underworld is the most important game ever created, and sadly very few people know this.

>>376742760
It also did it without sacrificing gameplay, which is something all other "cinematic" devs haven't been able to replicate.

>>376742031
Well go on anon

Some people ITT don't know what it means

>>376743156
By shattering people's expectations of what an open world should be, and it was rewarded with the most perfect scores in gaming history for it. The impact in future open world games will be palpable, as t hey will all be compared to Breath of the Wild. It's now the most selling launch title of all time with the highest attach rate of any game ever.

Reddit Litter Memia are also the living embodiment of the smug, detached Gen-X ethos.

I'd venture to guess none of them has felt a single sincere conviction about anything since childhood. They exist as polyps upon the colon of culture, satiating themselves on the perceived failures of others (i.e. "The Man") while adding nothing new to the discourse aside from ironic complaint.

They're a group of insecure, lost, rapidly aging burnouts who silently believe they could do a better job of making films than the professionals in the industry. Yet they lack the ambition and ability to actually enter the very industry they're obsessed with. They choose instead to fuck around and make student film piss-takes well into middle age.

They are awful, awful people. I've met thousands just like them, and the last thing we need is for these people to gain any attention for their navel gazing.

Please, /v/, do not aspire to become anything like these people. Theirs is a lonely road leading to depression and a life devoid of real purpose.

I hope they disappear and their disaffected followers stop subsidizing their lifestyle. Perhaps that would force them to do something productive with themselves.

>>376743657
Surprised you haven't been shit on for this. I agree though.

>>376743085
I'm sorry for not having obscure and useless trivia knowledge. I'm glad this knowledge has allowed you to feel superior.

>>376744152
I don't think anyone would seriously dispute it

>>376741086
Shenmue. A lot of what that game accomplished laid the foundation for titles like GTA and Yakuza. Unfortunately it barely accomplished half of what the developers sought out to do.

If you have never played Shenmue check out something like Star Citizen. It is undergoing a similar development process.

>>376743917
This is the best copy-pasta that ever existed btw.
Just thinking about the fag that originally typed this, makes my day everytime this is posted.

>>376741086

Most cases of a game breaking new ground were the ones that did it badly and people only remember the ones where it was done well by a more popular series

>>376743917
They're all married (except Jay?) and some even have kids, and they're doing what they love. I'm going to assume they are not lonely and depressed.

Maybe you just don't get their humor?

Anon, not that guy, and I really do not try to offend you, but did you seriously not know that Pong is not the first of its kind? Everyone who is interested in video games and has been on the internet for 10 years or so should know about all the "Pong" clones back then. Surely you atleast saw a video on youtube about the subject at hand at one point.

>>376744524
>They're all married (except Jay?)
what
mike is not married
rich is engaged or something like that
jay is not married
josh is not married
the only person married is aidsmoby, get your facts straight

>>376744519
The game that made a particular feature or genre popular is considered the one that broke new ground. Doesn't matter if there was a game 20 years earlier that did the same thing.

>>376744417

>>376744682
3/4 of the main guys have or are in serious relationships, that we've seen. I'm going to assume Jay probably has someone as well, like a normal well adjusted human being.

So the point still stands they probably aren't miserable fucks.

>>376741086
No Man's Sky
Bioshock Infinite
Star Citizen
Gone Home
Battleborn
Rapelay

>>376745416
the only confirmed people that have a relationship are rich and aidsmoby. The rest are probably single or hide it very well (doubt it).

>>376743787
>climbing mechanic

Seems like a weak gimmick compared to what Link to the Past, Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask, and Wind Waker had. Masks were the best gimmick, followed by Ocarina's time travel, then sailing in Wind Waker.

Day system in which almost every NPC has a unique schedule, name, and questline is something I don't see even today. Most modern games just settle for a simple weather and day and night system and game NPCs just either stand in one place all day or have very limited movement patterns.

So now that I think about it I guess I'd have to say Majora's Mask.

>>376746268
>then sailing in Wind Waker.
washroom breaks built into the gameplay sure are great.

Am i being trolled or are the both of you really saying skyrim and fuckin assassins creed changed open world gaming more than GTA3?

Fuckin millenials i swear to god.

>>376746268
Dragon's Dogma had a similar system where NPCs have their own schedule but it's hindered by the fact that the main city is a clusterfuck so it's hard to find them when they aren't in the town center

>>376746268
>>376746950

Shenmue had the best open world time mechanic by far.

>>376744682
Mike married Jessie ages ago retard and Jay is gay but just likes whoring around.

>>376746268
>gimmick
It's not a gimmick and you're thinking about it in comparison to Zelda games rather than open world games. The verticality of the world and distinct landmarks that can be seen from vantage points makes getting to each tower an immersive experience. The climbing aids this world structure in such a way that every other open world game ever made feels limited without its inclusion. You're just going through a big, boring level otherwise. BotW is lacking in reward and enemy variety but going through the world itself makes other open world games look like amateur hour.

>>376747401

Psycho Soldier was the very first game to have digitized singing.

Morrowind. Modding existed before it, but usually in the form of custom maps for FPS games with maybe some light scripting elements if you were lucky. Morrowind was the first game designed from the ground up to modded to hell and back
