What's with the influx of threads shitting on every popular

Reddit and/or Neogaf.

Don't let them fool you into believing it isn't them.

Phoneposters who started browsing in the last couple years.

>he doesn't like my generic weeb game
>r-r-reddit!
Pathetic

>>376904835
we got one already boyos

>>376904835
>Using the term weeb in a negative sense
How to spot an newfag from reddit, 4chan has, and always will be a weeb website, fuck off.

>people criticize these popular japanese games, surely something must be afoot

This is literally whats been happening with western games
>Why are western games so shit
So much of these threads

>>376904443
Reddit and /pol/ users. We need a board specifically for Japanese games, with no Touhou related posts allowed. We already know what will happen if /jp/ users shit up the board.

>>376904835
Nothing pathetic about those who say the truth "anon".

>Bash western games for focus on story and shit combat
>Praise Persona 5 and Automata
>Surprised when someone calls you out

Not hard

>weebs make fun of every game that isn't made in Japan
>weebs start getting a dose of their own medicine
>they get upset
really gets the old nuts a tingling

>>376904739
/pol/ is likely contributing too. Anime is too degenerate to ignore.

>>376904931
You can like japanese media without being a weeb you faggot. A weeb is someone whose obsessed with japanese media to a point where it's all they consume.

Contrarianism, the usual suspect

Jap games are going through a general upward trend in quality so /v/ will shit on them just to shit on them

neogaf enacting their plan to raid /v/ and turn it into neogaf 2.0

Redditors who use vague complaints like "it's too Japanese" to blindly shit on a game. They are too busy playing early access open world survival craft FPS #635 to try out Japanese vidya and the thought of it being better than their generic western trash scares and confuses them

You're a newfag to, it's really fucking obvious.

>>376905071
But Automata has better combat than any western developed hacknslash/action game from the past 1t years.

>>376905148
This desu

There's a difference between simply liking anime and japanese video games and being a complete weeb who irrationally hates everything from the west and praises everything from japan

>>376905148
Oh, you don't even understand the term you use y ourself.

>>376904443
It was coming a long time ago.
"Unfortunately" P5, Nier, BOTW, Nioh and all these games are not bad so there are many people who like them. This means that they are easy (You) mines.

>>376904936

>>376902556
>>376902536
>>376902617 (although the DS2 is great meme has been going for a while now)

>>376902768
>>376902119 (makes another one)
>>376903276 (see the ds2 one above)
>>376902351
These are all great OPs who have written well constructed criticism about the game, and none of them have posted this only for the sweet (You)s.

>>376905298
And? It still pales in comparison to Dmc 3, ninja gaiden, bayonetta. Just because it's slightly better than western games doesn't mean it's good. Modern games are shit, fagomata included.

>>376905148
>>376905354
On 4chan weeb has been used ironically to describe anyone who shows even a remote amount of interest in any form of Japanese media for at least 7 or 8 years now. You would have known that if this wasn't your first week browsing though.

>>376904931
You're both fucking newfags.
>Using weeb instead of weeaboo.
>Every anime fan is a weeaboo because they don't want to circlejerk it to DBZ and politically correct cartoons only.

>>376905148
>>376905354
wrong, thats an otaku
a weeb is someone even MORE obsesed to the point of trying to change your nationality, ignoring your roots and want to leave everything behind to become an honorary japanese

>>376905382

(slang, derogatory) A non-Japanese person (especially one of Caucasian ancestry) who is obsessed with Japan and behaves in a stereotypically Japanese manner.

https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/weeaboo

All I did was Google weeaboo definition and this one one of the many definitions that are the same. Yet I don't know what I'm talking about. Huh...

>>376905524
Nah. That was years ago.
Nowadays if you don't active shit on Japanese games and everything that enables them you are a dirty weeb and should be shot on sight.

>>376905497
To be fair though Automata is several genres all in one so comparing it to a pure action game like Bayonetta is a little unfair. Of course the game is going to have diluted action gameplay when it is also a twin stick shooter/rhythm game/ 2D hacknslash/ whatever in the fuck memelord Taro decided to put in. In order to truly judge automata in a competition of its peers you would need other games similar enough in nature to ''set the bar," fortunately/unfortunately those games don't exist.

>>376905739
It's not about liking the game. That's fine, but all weebs talk about is waifus.

>>376905524
>For at least 7 or 8 years now
Nice revisionism, literally no one did this until 2015 on /a/ and other Japanese culture boards.

>>376905148
>A weeb is someone whose obsessed with japanese media to a point where it's all they consume.
sounds like a true 4chan man to me

>>376905420
Huh my bad, you're right, I hadn't really looked at the catalog. Not many big new releases since P5 and Zelda so these two get a lot of threads, and people who can't play them or don't like them get irritated and make negative threads.

>>376905524
>I came here in 2014 and I want everybody to know about it!

Google "Weeaboo" and find out the history of the term, you outrageous faggot.

Shitposters don't like that we talk about games.

Was William /Anjin the original weeb?

>>376904443
Probably Canadians, as /vint/ revealed

>>376905942
Not that western games aren't getting this treatment (like Prey), it's just that there have been more popular Japanese releases so they are easier targets.
It's just the usual contrarian bullshit that merged with the muh evil anime memery.

>shit on western games all fucking year
>no one gives a damn

>dare to post my impressions about a mediocre experience I had with x game which happens to be japanese
>ANON WHAT THE FUCK NO, WHY DO YOU SHITPOST THIS SAME STUFF EVERYDAY COME ON

>all weebs talk about is waifus
Not only is this not true, but how does this impact you from discussion of your own merit? Do you enjoy SMT? Discuss SMT fusions, special abilities, the main plot, the density of your favorite path's ending, and favorite tracks in SMT threads. You can apply this to any Japanese game that has similar concepts, and substitute one of these for another, depending on what you talk about. Otherwise, how does discussion of one thing impact discussion of another?

>>376904443
Easy (You)'s cause dumb weebs don't know how to not respond to bait. Same reason why people post "why are white people so stupid?"

>>376906150
You ever think this is pushback from all of the years of "LMAO WEEBS WEEB GAME WEEB PLAYERS WEEB WAIFUS WEEB THIS WEEB THAT LMAO" plaguing threads where they have no place, people constantly making threads to decry Japanese games like in >>376904282, and shitting up Japanese game discussion because they hate weebs? Because this has been going on for longer than you have been here, I can assure you.

>>376905420
I'm pretty sure half of those were made by the same person since they all have similar sentence structure.

>>376906227
This honestly. Im half asian but weebs here make me laugh so much. Its like blacks laughing at whites on a white twerking forum.

>shit on western game on daily basis
>nobody gives a damn
>shit on nip game once in a blue moon
>people get assblasted
really makes you think

>>376906453
>half Asian
Isn't it funny how Japanese/Korean/Chinese will always readily admit their ancestors but shitty flips/stinkaporeans etc will favor the catch-all "Asian" terminology? Really activated my almonds.

>>376905825
Jack of all trades master of fuck all makes it a mediocre game.

I don't see how anyone is finding the main combat any more thrilling than your average Arkham combat with that dodge mechanic.

>>376906590
Half jap. Happy now weeb?

>>376906640
The only reason is because of style. If batman was some 1000 year old loli fighting demons it would be the GOAT game for weebs.

>>376906339
I like how you're pretending that shitposting is unique to western games. Multiple times I've seen some anime poster blatantly shit on westerners because of the success of japanese games this year.

I don't fucking care about this "war" between both these autistic parties, but dismissing actual criticism and discussion with
>"oh its just people hating japanese things again"
is retarded.

>>376906150
Hahahaa. Fucking weebs.

For a bunch of people who critique other sites for their circlejerky, echo chamber nature, /v/ sure does seem to do a lot of it. Why oh why is muh favorite game being criticized? This shouldn't be tolerated, it must be (insert boogeyman).

>>376905113
/pol/ is reddit so it's implied.

dumbasses who feel like they're too good for japanese games have no good games to play.

>>376905929
Eh I've been posting here since 2005. I enjoy some anime and Japanese games, but I'm not really into it that much. That being said I don't care if you're a weaboo, that's what this site was originally for.

The real problem is that everyone who even remotly likes any JAp game gets called a "weeaboo". I like and play both Jap and western games, why should i be categorized as a weaboo? Weaboos are people who literally obsessed, not the ones who simply happen to like watching or playing Jap stuff. Even fucking Filthy Frank said that in his video: liking anime doesn't make you weaboo, the EXCESS of it does.

>>376904443
>What's with the influx of threads shitting on every popular nip game lately?

It's summer

But moot said the traffic doesn't really increase in summer.
