We rarely ever discuss anything important to gaming. /vg/ is one giant hugbox community, but at least they give links to large faqs of compiled knowledge.

Even when games like Nier: Automata were released, people would go on and on about the characters appearance, instead of overpowered builds (weapon damage +6 and Shockwave +6 chips) that would help new players.

>>382441381
Content creators have every opportunity to shill their games in a single thread, but never do. Instead, we see multiple threads for an upcoming Japanese game. Which creates interest in that game.

>neo/nu-x
>meme x

Whenever someone mentions reddit/neogaf/any other forum or social media site the entire thread becomes shit. It basically become a pissing contest to see which guy came from some place else but its just needless and annoying.
Whenever people don't use catalog and make multiple threads of the same shit.
LOL Threads. I don't think loss edits are funny anymore and they're just excuses to post off-topic shit at this point.

Half of the threads on the catalog being bait or falseflagging, the other half being e-celebs shilling their lastest video on youtube.

There is nothing wrong with spacing like that. It helps break down paragraphs and certain information to make the post seem more structured and impactful.

Yeah, I get that Sonyfans are a pretty nasty bunch, but someone's only comment is that something sucks (as an example: "Breath of the Wild was mediocre"). Why can it only be from Sony? What happened to the benefit of the doubt and realizing that anybody else (even a falseflagger) could be responsible?

Who fucking knows.
Same thing can be said for anything nintendo related.
Speaking of that, for the longest time the only people that were interested in BotW were furfags talking about how they wanted to fuck the parrot with the accordion.
They weren't even trying to be subtle about it. And every single fucking time they got called out on it, they start backpedaling and go full damage control.

Same thing can be said about waifu threads and bara threads, but holy shit why are furfags so insufferable?

>>382445042
To be fair, sometimes it's REALLY obvious.
Like you'll have 5 threads a day for 3 weeks obvious.
I'm not saying popular games shouldn't be talked about, but there is a difference between how Anons talk about a game, and how companies generate interest for their game.
Normally Anons talk about flaws and good aspects equally, maybe they'll talk about shit they hated, or bug fixes. Companies only focus on one or two key points and ignore everything else.
Remember all the mass effect andromeda and splatoon threads that showed up for months before they got released, then fucking VANISHED the moment the games got released?

I mean normally speaking, we'll have threads about games we like maybe a couple times a week, then it stops. Companies have threads up here literally 24/7 in some cases, like the uncharted collection or whatever the fuck it was called.

I don't think he was baiting because he was writing pretty serious. His only argument was that buying skins meant being a MOBA

>criticize a game
>"wow did you even play it?"

Two fucking things here. One, you don't need to play something to be able to criticize it. You can look up gameplay videos and still have a point even though you're probably not capable of discussing the finer points of the game like story. But second, and more infuriating, is this bullshit mentality existing in the first place. What kind of pathetic cesspool is this that you can just deflect all criticism by saying "well you didn't play it"? Certainly, people shouldn't be talking shit about things they have no idea about, but to assume that everyone is doing that by default is the most cancerous thing you could do. Nobody can have a fucking discussion if you just handwave away anything that you don't like and demand that people post a 100% screen with a timestamp on it like fucking XV-kun or whoever else does it. Holy shit it makes me mad.

Honestly I don't see why they need so much validation. If THEY and others are enjoying those particular games then that's fine. No need to talk about how it's the best thing ever when it's just ok.

To be fair, we probably wouldn't know you like the game unless you say so or say something you liked about the game to balance out the criticism. It's a bit like peer reviewing other people's papers, you talk about both the good and the bad in your review. If your opinion is still discredited after that for no good reason, then it's a problem.

>>382448847
Well if you go into the thread specifically because you liked the game and want to discuss it, you kinda have to say so because of 4chan's lack of accountability and the fact that the nature of internet conversations means it's fairly difficult to discern tone or genuineness. We have no idea if you actually like the game until you say so, so if you complain about people jumping on you even though you like the game because you only posted a criticism, you have to realize that the response is kind of inevitable. It's not okay, but it's to be expected.

>I can't take criticism unless it's a veiled compliment

The one thing I really hate about /v/ is that people are either too young or too autistic to know not to respond to bait.

So some bait threads that are as obvious as "haha this game that /v/ likes is poop lol" get hundreds of butthurt replies, only further encouraging 13 year olds to make obnoxious posts because /v/ is too autistic and too stunned to know that the best way not to get bullied is just to not pay attention to the bully.

>>382449372
I'll keep it short. 5 threads a day with titles like "Fuck purmpf and durnk people" and shit like that. With Wolfenstein 2 it was "WHIT BOI". And with WWII threads it was "WOMEN WERE ON THE BEACHES OF D-DAY!!1!".

almost like 5 threads to hide each time because of it. Fucking bastards. Out of all of them, Wolfenstein was the worst because you know "Nazis were the good guys" flaggers/baiters/polocks/idiots.

>>382450053
A lot of "bait threads" are comprised of four or five 13-year-olds trying to make an epic screencap to post on /r/4chan.

Most people know not to respond, but it looks like the bait whips everyone into a frenzy because those same four or five kids are posting 10 times a minute.

>>382450120
This too is a serious problem. Shit like 'What did he mean by this', 'X is cute! CUTE!' and 'Who was in the wrong here?' contributes nothing to the boards. 4chan is supposed to be spontaneous discussion for the most part

>>382448632
>You're only allowed to say mean things if it fits my autistic criteria

>>382449825
Damn, you're strawmanning really hard right now. Where did I say I did any of things you complained about? When I say "we," I refer to the anons in the thread you may go into. You just exhibited the behavior I talk about, since we're on the internet, you have no idea about my tone or genuineness and you're proceeding to make unfair assumptions about me, such as that I own a Nintendo console or am invested in the console wars, something you're doing ironically, as much as the anons you originally complained about doing to you.
>>382449992
I don't think you know what a veiled compliment is. You can be as vitriolic in your criticism as you want, but if you don't say that you actually liked the game, then how will we know that you do? Sure, we might have no evidence to assume anything negative about you, but we also have no positive evidence either. But the fact that you posted a criticism and nothing else leads people to think you don't like a particular game more than you like it, since the only thing you felt like bringing up about the game in order to contribute to a thread is a criticism. Your criticism may in fact be valid, but you can't complain about people assuming you feel a certain way about a game if you don't post anything that clearly indicates said feelings.

If someone was posting a long explanatory negative or positive critique of different aspects of a game. Then its safe to guess they played the game. If you're stupid and need them to directly state to you they did or not play the game than thats your own problem.

Where did I say I would brush off your criticism? I'm saying that you have to recognize that if you go into a thread where the majority of the posters like the game and post a criticism and nothing else, you have to realize that nobody can definitively say, "Hey, he posted a criticism, so he definitely liked the game" as much as they can't say you hated it, so you can't complain about people assuming that you didn't like it if all you posted was a criticism. You can complain about people not addressing your criticism, and you'd be in the right, but you can't complain about people assuming your opinion about the game in general if you take no steps to enunciate it.

That's because visual novels belong on /jp/, it's been like that for awhile.

I think newer people should read the rules before posting.

>>382451342
The original poster was specifically complaining about people assuming he didn't like the game because he criticized it, not that people were brushing off his criticism by saying he didn't play it. Playing a game and liking it are two entirely different things.

>>382440758
I hate when people just read the title of a thread and shitpost without reading to see if the shitpost was already made.

They're the exact same. Both are for fags.

>>382451530
No, if you specifically want to avoid people assuming that you didn't like a game because all you posted was a criticism, then it's your job to say your opinion about the game. That's all I'm saying, how is this so hard to understand? You do know how complex and ambiguous the English language can be, right?

I miss good threads about videogames and videogame related things.
Remember the ROB threads, where a dude basically did a little skit show featuring a R.O.B and a couple of gameboys, and they always talked about videogames?
This board shitposted them to death. To death. Apparently it's intolerable to enjoy yourself whatsoever.
I don't know, man. When people started fucking those threads up and mods started doing nothing, I felt like a little part of both /v/ and myself died.

>>382451613
Yes. The original poster was saying that, the guy I was replying took it as if you don't state you played it or post proof you played the game Its not valid. Its like people asking for timestamp proof you have a switch and the game to critize botw. Nobody a needed timestamp proof to say positive things about it.

>>382451552

>>382452053
He never said anything about that either, he only talked about liking the game, not about discrediting people's opinions by saying they didn't play it. In fact, the word "play" is nowhere to be found in his post.

There's just so much negativity.

Everything is
>What is the worst game?
>What is something you hate?
>Why is it shit?

Fuck, even THIS thread is doing it.

Even the POSITIVE threads have to be negatively laced. You can't just true-blue gush about a game without there already being a built-in audience, or being called a shill, so everyone has to measure their praise of a game, so even overwhelming praise either comes off as mediocre, or the entire thread risks turning into a waterfall of SHILL SHILL SHILL.

It honestly wouldn't be so bad, except it culminates, at least once a day, in someone starting a thread that's all
>Why does everything suck? Where has the magic gone? Everything is irredeemable shit now! What happened?
Well no, we're actually in a video gaming golden age right now. Absolute, solid-gold, genre defining masterpieces have been coming at us at a rate of about one a month for the past year or so, and the gaming industry as a whole has never been more transparent, or easy to enter. If you'd actually LOOK, shit is awesome right now, right this second.

But no, you can't actually SAY that. Not on /v/, where literally everything you say, think, or do has to be measured against the risk of being called a SHILL or a FALSE FLAGGER.

Everyone talks about how 4chan is the last bastion of free speech, but that's really not the case. In many ways, this place is far more strict than other places on the internet, in much more pervasive ways.
On Reddit you'll just get a downvote.
On 4chan, you can potentially turn a good topic or game into a "meme" and ruin the subject for literally everyone else for years to come.

>>382452367
no need to get so simmered over your anonymous posting websites. You've probably been here all day, huh? Way don't you take a break.

>>382452640
But that quote refers to liking the game, i.e. having a positive opinion about it, not to playing it. I think it means that if all you post about a game is a criticism of a certain element, even though it's valid, the anons in the thread have no idea as to your real opinion of the game or whether you liked anything about it, and because of that, they'll assume things about you because they have no evidence to prove otherwise, and that this is inevitable, especially in threads where the majority like the game and have said so.

>>382453478
Well it's kind of the nature of an argument or educated criticism in general, you have to leave as few ambiguities in it as possible so that people will clearly understand what you're trying to say and the thought process behind you saying it. It's not so much a social cues thing as something that's par for the course of effective argumentation.

This is how you know that a game is 100% trash, like Zelda: BOTW, or Bayonetta,or Dragon's Crown. Your game is so terrible that people actively want to ignore discussing the gameplay, so they resort to constant porn dumps.

>>382445351
To be fair I mainly see that with New Vegas, and the Fallout/vg/ is just people posting their modded abominations and shutting down game discussion.

>>382453872

>>382453692
Show me one good eastern game that came out i the past 6 months that wasn't weeb trash that relied on cinematics, anime tits, or waifus. Also, no casual shovelware.

>>382454372
Most of the time, you can, but not something as drastic as "really long negative critique of game= I actually liked the game but I'm criticising it." A criticism is by nature a form of argument, and an argument is in many ways different from a normal conversation. Social cues are not an effective way to criticize or jump to conclusions about someone's argument; they're far too vague to suit such a purpose. It's why when you're in college, professors can tear you apart for vague statements in argumentative papers you make. It's also why medical research papers read the way they do, they explain absolutely everything they have to in an easy-to-follow, methodical manner, so nothing is left to the imagination.

>>382446578

>>382454167
It happens with any game that contains at least one character with a pussy. It happens only on /v/ of all places, don't get turned off from playing a certain game because of the virgin autists who make porn dumps of literally any game.

>>382454997
No, it happens in plenty of other places too.You don't even need a woman in the game to bring about the shitposting. See: TF2 general on /vg/. My goodness what a cesspit that place is, and it reflects on how the community of the current game is if you ask me: 90% trash, 10% decent people.

>>382454997
This is applicable to most forms of media with attractive women on 4chan. Imagedumps and waifushit are cancer

I fucking hate when people don't read threads here and post shit that's already been said.

>>382454817
You are part of the problem too if you can't understand that not every game has to cater to the same audience.

E-sports shills and Korean blizzdrones.

>>382455654
The only audience that should be catered to is the one that likes gameplay in their video games. If you like RTS's, puzzle games, action games, point and clicks, and so on? Fine, plenty of variety. But if you just want porn to jerk off to, or cinematics that make your game feel like a hollywood movie, then you're in the wrong medium and you should promptly return to whatever hollywood thinktank you came from. While you're at it, do me a favor and take David Cage with you.

BOARD OF PEACE
But seriously, it's Reddit's fault. Old /pol/ stayed to it's board, and occasionally /b/. Neo-/pol/ is 90% Reddit, 10% stormfags who unironically believe /pol/ infographs are reputable sources. Reddit doesn't know board culture, and stormfags don't respect it, so they spread their shit everywhere.

I agree. Also, Sanders and Cruz were worse than Trump and Clinton DESU.

Cause faggots do it for free ya dumb neet.

i hate the casual racism and constant downtrodding of women that is ever present here. this entire site needs more strict moderation and a username system. this archaic shit just doesn't fly on the internet anymore.

When people actually care about what difficulty setting others use
I'll never understand it

Lurk moar newfag. There are certain types of games that are /v/core, and liking games outside of that is an obvious indicator that you are an immigrant who is not wanted, and not someone who showed up in 2003 with the rest of SA.

Post a "/pol/ infograph" with false information.

Almost every console war shitposter turned out to be from Brazil when we merged with /int/ for a day, yes.

A lot of SJW shitposters and the like turned out to be Canadian, too.

I have no idea why they act like that but I wish they'd stop.

An immense amount of the weebs, if not most, were Brazillian too.

There's literally nothing wrong with this. Stock phrases used to stir up new discussion are alright. In fact, the more elaborate your OP is, the less likely you are to get responses.

You can do this even easier on smaller communities. I'm an expert at it, in fact.

I still do it, even knowing I'm getting that response. It's so satisfying.

The shitty thing is the few times I've seen people try to make OC lately everyone else started screeching at the poster to stop.

>>382472750
I disagree. Shorter titles give more flexibility to the thread.

People that join /v/ threads merely to post /pol/bait shit then call people "SJW cucks" when they get told to fuck off. Because of redditfags wanting to get ebic upboats on their r/4chan posts, they swarmed /pol/ and won't keep their shit in the right board. It's a different case if the game is somehow related to it (I.E: Wolfenstein or some other game about politics), but I digress.
Threads with generic trite phrases that get posted ad nauseum like "What did he mean by this?" "What was his endgoal?" "Thoughts?" "Who was in the wrong here?". If you're going to make a thread about a certain part in a videogame, at least make a fucking original sentence for it instead of using "le epic may may XD" bullshit.
Speaking of which, Irony humor is fine when it actually applies to a situation or something, but because of this board's fetishism for le ironic culture, you can't mention yoshi without someone going "haha does he poo out his eggs" for an oh-so-fanny reference to a screencap that's ~3-4 years old.

Look, /v/, I like you guys, but this is cringeworthy. You're really no better than Reddit at this point.

Not being allowed to call out virological marketing was the final straw. Even in spite of literally identical posts and file uploads, you'd get banned for pointing out obvious shilling.

I come here to shitpost now.

>>382475247
Fuck you. Even if there were shills on /v/, they would be less annoying and more productive to this site than faggots like you crying about them.

Real glad the shill meme has died down. It was insufferable back in 11-13
