it's more that shitposting is the only way threads survive on /v/, and even though most still loved the game, the hype and discussion has died down as those that got the game early will have completed it by now.

their latest thing is to say the game's a mediocre 6 or 7/10 and that they got bored around 10 hours in.

Anon, please. Your shitposting meter is gonna break if you pull out bait this massive. I mean seriously.

>shooting is literally "press x to win" with enemies whose AI is easily abused
>multiple game mechanics were removed because Naughty Dog were idiots who couldn't program properly, for example Ellie being invisible to all enemies because her being a target would've made it too videogamey, and not cinematic enough
>online is literally pay2win, as you can buy your way with hundreds of dollars of super duper weapons
>online multiplayer is just call of duty with more chest high walls to duck behind

What are you smoking anon to think that this "thing" deserves anything above a 4/10? Zelda I can see the praise, since /v/ has a thing for crossdressing gay ladyboys, but TLOU has none of that defending it. It is a terrible game, a pathetic "story" and a poorly paced """experience""". It is the definition of mediocrity paid for by reviews.

I've seen Mario games with better plot and pacing and consistency, but then again Mario is known for his GAMEPLAY, so the story doesn't constantly shove its testicles in your face as if it didn't stink of unwashed pleb normie taste. Infact, any given Mario RPG has more likable characters and a more consistent plot than even the most high budgeted sony cinematic simulator, and you can quote me on that.

Trying too hard? Son, let me tell you what's "trying too hard"; a game where a little defenseless girl is blatantly marketed as this "wonderful feminist icon" but in reality she's nothing more than braindead tumblr fodder who, ingame, acts as an unkillable, constant escort mission. And those aren't fun, so having one drag behind you the entire game would unsurprisingly be a massive bummer. But she's gotta be there for MUH STORY and MUH CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT.

How is it a strawman? If Zelda had only gotten a 90 or so, people would be up in arms about how "the stupid industry doesn't understand Nintendo's vision, they're all paid off by Sony." I kinda wish that happened, so we could discuss BOTW without people calling everyone "salty" for not agreeing with idiotic gaming journalists like Kotaku or Gamespot. but we unironically have people shilling for Patricia Hernandez because of it.

Thank goodness that fat idiot Jim Sterling gave it a 7, otherwise people would be praising him too.

OP, BotW came out in March (that's the 3rd month of the year), and it's now June (the 6th month). Therefore, it's only been 3 months, not 4, since BotW was released.

Can you not do basic arithmetic or something?

Not really. You'll constantly see "OPEN WORLD DONE RIGHT" thrown around but it's by the usual suspects so just ignore it. The game feels kind of inventive and fresh for a bit but if you don't go to the final boss after a few hours something will click in your brain and you'll realize that you're just doing the same thing over and over again. If you started noticing skyrim's Nord dungeon->Fight draugr->Word wall loop, it's the exact same feeling (except where skyrim's combat was just shit enough to be a failure, zelda's combat is just good enough to be passable)

>what makes it cancerous?
I think one major problem is that they try and push all the women as strong and independent, but they don't want to actually commit to it, so you have scenes where Zelda breaks down and cries like a baby, like she's guest starring in an episode of steven universe. I mean, who the hell plays video games for emotional filler? If Zelda truly had good gameplay, scenes like that wouldn't exist period. It's nothing more than bait for the tumblr crowd who thinks games need to be more "artistic". Being optional doesn't nullify the fact that it's a punishment for exploring. You're actively punished with cinematic slop for playing the game the way it wants you to, and to avoid it you have to rush right to ganon and never explore once, lest you trip one of these story laden landmines.

It's the exact same as TLOU, except with less corridors.

That's because you've been brainwashed by the (((industry))) to think that games need to evolve from their "evil videogamey ways" and that they need more story. If you think Zelda has such good gameplay, then you would gladly agree with me to get rid of the cinematic cancer.

Remember, the industry is video GAMES, not video movies.
>>
>>379228746
It's not only performance. It's also the awful systems, the shop.. the lack of a global account that should have been there since the Wii.

I mean, I knew what I went into with the 3DS, but in the end it was the lack of proper games for the system that made me sell it. Sure it was fun to play the occasional older gameboy title, but you can't justify a new console with only nostalgic emulated titles (that aren't even cross platform, great job Nintendo).

That game journos praised TLOU's everything, from story to gameplay. If TLOU has bad gameplay, then that means the reviewers are wrong, they have bad taste, they're paid off, take your pick of any reason.

Not automatically terrible, but worse off for sure.
By your logic, every game should look like https://youtu.be/SuDqvBS5b2A because having good graphics isn't necessary for the gameplay to be good.

Having a bit of story can make the gameplay better because it gives weight and reason to what you're doing, besides it just being fun to do.

>because having good graphics isn't necessary for the gameplay to be good.
See pic related. you don't need anything but the barebones in terms of graphics, story and music. What matters is the gameplay, and the better it is, the less crutches you need. And would you look at that, the extremely low costs allow the developer to release the game for free, AND release 10 years of free content in a steady stream, while Zelda wasted its budget and, despite supposedly selling alot, it needs to charge hundreds of dollars for DLC.

So as a person who enjoys gameplay and a paying customer, one of these just has more to offer.
>>
>>379232313
Do you really think that releasing only super complex, minimalist games is 1) a viable way to make money, 2) going to appeal to all but an extremely niche market or 3) going to work to create a long-term industry without people getting tired of looking at the same thing? I don't think so, there are plenty of more ways to have fun with games than deep gameplay.
And you don't need to completely abandon creating fun scenarios/events, or having an artistic vision in regards to the visual style or message to still have complex and deep gameplay.

I agree with you that Nintendo were probably very inefficient in the development of BotW, in that they could have created a game just as good if not better in much less time if they wanted, but saying that dwarf fortress is the only good model for how a game should be made is just ridiculous. Ask 99% of people which they would rather play: Dwarf Fortress, or BotW/TLoU/whatever else.

Why do ALL games need to be about money? Letting that get in the way of quality just seems like a bad decision.

>2) going to appeal to all but an extremely niche market
Could've easily marketed to the minecraft crowd. 150 million willing people doesn't sound bad.

>3) going to work to create a long-term industry without people getting tired of looking at the same thing?
That's why, whenever you introduce a new element, it directly makes the game better. None of this cinematic trash.

>but saying that dwarf fortress is the only good model for how a game should be made is just ridiculous.
It's a damn good model of how you should emphasize gameplay above all else.

>Ask 99% of people which they would rather play: Dwarf Fortress, or BotW/TLoU/whatever else.
If they're not fans of Zelda, many of them would choose TLOU. But again, popularity isn't an indicator of quality.

A game at most needs backstory or maybe some plot in the manual. It shouldn't need hours of cutscenes. many games have gotten by without so much as a word spoken, because they understand minimalist game design.

>I don't assume you hold other games to this standard.
I hold many of them to this standard. Now, because we've yet to make a game that has zero dialogue or any cutscenes, I don't consider any games to be 10/10, but the closer a game gets, the better.

Is that why it's always broken and needs a mandatory 5 DLC packs just to be playable? Not to mention the countless framerate drops, unskippable cutscenes, quick time events, and the major budget they spend on advertising instead of fixing the damn game.

How can it focus on gameplay if it's "shit"? Certainly they would've taken the time to make it NOT shit?

yes, and we rightfully label them as cinematic experiences.

Well, a video GAMe with 8+ hours of cutscenes isn't exactly something I'd buy, even out of the bargain bin.
>>
>>379236315
>Now, because we've yet to make a game that has zero dialogue or any cutscenes,
Tetris you mong. Connect Four. Centipede. Tic Tac Toe. Baseball. Skee Ball. Sports Games. Online Shooters. MOBAs. Asteroids. Mario Kart. Rocket League. Most every multiplayer game. Super Mario. Racing games.

You pretend to have discerning tastes by holding games to an impossible standard that you fail to realize is achieved constantly. If you seriously threw a fit every time you were treated to a 45 second cutscene for finding a memory, or the less than ten minutes of cutscene per area, then that's understandable, but you should learn to just say you hate unskippable cutscenes instead of inflating it into this big idea that the existence of cutscenes is proof that the game is broken.

And if you were so frustrated by these momentary cutscenes, then you clearly enjoyed the game enough to miss it when they weren't playing, so I don't know why you're pretending the gameplay is so broken that they were trying to cover it up with the least amount of cutscenes in a zelda game this last two decades.

>>379237462

Those are all great games. Every single one a solid 9/10. But they have small flaws, and occasionally do have small boring cutscenes which wouldn't be a problem, but half the time yuou can't skip them. Like with Mario, where you don't really care that Peach has been kidnapped, but every castle you have to watch that scene, you know, where they say "go to another castle" or "watch the princess get thrown to another world". It's boring after a while. And boredom can get irksome in a game.

>And if you were so frustrated by these momentary cutscenes, then you clearly enjoyed the game enough to miss it when they weren't playing,
Sadly I didn't. There was no meat to the game, I didn't care about the combat, I didn't care about finding items, I don't want to find korok seeds since they make you overpowered and give you way more inventory than you need once you trade em in. You have to rush to ganon on every playthrough or you just become way too powerful. I'm supposed to give this a pass though, because "Zelda is teh hotness and there are tits". That's what I don't like.

>>379237261
>I wouldn't buy it so it's shit
Don't worry your edgy phase will wear off soon. Until then enjoy your 15 year old shit "game" Because I agree that gameplay matters when that is the main focus of the game. But if they are focusing on telling a story then the story matters the most. I don't care about your stupid definition of what a game is you entitled prick
>"a game played by electronically manipulating images produced by a computer program on a television screen or other display screen."
that is the definition of a videogame, so a game like heavy rain where you have minimal control of your character, but is story driven is still a game.
>>
>>379237951

>But if they are focusing on telling a story then they should go make a book or a movie

Fixed that for you.

>so a game like heavy rain where you have minimal control of your character, but is story driven is still a game.
It's the same metric you'd use to consider a DVD of a movie to be a game. You technically control it, but it's a terrible game because it pretty much scoffs at the medium in question, not even bothering to utilize it in its entirety.
>>
>>379237874
Okay so you really didn't like the gameplay or the lack of interesting goals in the world, most likely due to that you don't find these little cutscenes or interesting little places to be a reward, you seem to be more interested in being rewarded based on gameplay skill. That makes more sense than 'a game can't be good if it has any cutscenes'.

Zelda simply has a story that informs it's gameplay. If you don't enjoy that then I understand why most of Zelda is ineffectual to you.

>But your logic isn't making any sense at all.
Perhaps it would be easier for me to just say that I hate the AAA mainstream and how its focus has become on style over substance, and even Zelda thinks that we need voice acting and DLC over 60 FPS and a hard mode being in the base game.

You lose like 2 fps in some areas, also 720p instead of 900p (docked). Oddly the Wii U version performs better in some areas. Digital Foundry said the framerate is almost a wash but Switch usually comes out ahead.

Absolutely no reason to buy a Switch right now if you have a Wii U, the only two games worth owning on it are both ports.
