Honestly that's a solid list of games. Apart from Undertale they're all pretty good. I'd also recommend Deus Ex, Dark Souls, Bastion, Talos Principle, La Mulana, Antichamber, Drunken Robot Pornography, Salt and Sanctuary, Furi and many more.

this is pathetic
fedoracore is the same as using the word hipster

>“hipster” is a term co-opted for use as a meaningless pejorative in order to vaguely call someone else’s authenticity into question and, by extension, claim authenticity for yourself

>>383671052
That's basically the opposite of a hipster. Hipsterism is about counter culture, being against the trend for the sake of it. Of course it never works out, as the opposite trends are themselves also trends. Anti-fashion is still fashion.

>>383668773
You genuinely don't understand what the term means because you're such a newfag that you're using the modern fedora meme.

Skyrim is fedoracore.

>>383671520
I see what you mean now, and yes, hence my point about it being it's own trend, and why hipster is very much not a meaningless pejorative. It means a lot and is a pretty good description of some people.

So true fedoracore is when you're easily impressed by the themes and nuances of a game being slightly deeper than average as well as the belief that your ability to perceive this depth puts you above other people intellectually?

>>383668773
Fedoracore doesn't mean hipster or grimdark or edgy. Go make your own meme term.

Fedoracore is what that guy with a fedora likes, not the recently devloped stereotype of a neckbeard or a hipster.
That guy with a fedora has basic tastes in video games like he does in fashion and movies, he's raving about Skyrim and In Bruges, not Deus Ex and Ghost Dog.

They aren't really hating on Stalker. Just like the whole new Tumblr generation of /v/, they are just completely and utterly obsessed with labels and identities. The games don't matter to people one way or another. Calling someone "fedora-core" (which itself also does not mean anything, it's literally just the ritual of attributing others with vaguely negative-sounding identity label) is what matters.

>>383668894
I Don't think a fedora would admit liking Undertale. Not because the fanbase, but because people know about it.

Well that's stupid and I don't understand it. This is an anonymous message board, why the fuck do people need labels if we don't know who anyone is?

What qualities does a fedoracore game have? What actual criticisms are held against these games. Genuinely curious.

None of those games are fedora. Fedoras are atheists who end up becoming worse than christians.
But Metal Gear Solid are indeed bad games. The gameplay is minimal, the controls are horrible and only the story and the presentation of it are good.

>>383672297
Don't forget the recent influx of people calling literally every single non nintendo/souls japanese game weebshit. Feel like these are the same people making garbage threads like these.

Welcome to /v/. General public usually isn't the smartest thing in the universe: this board collects the dumbest of the dumbest for the most part.

>why the fuck do people need labels if we don't know who anyone is?
Because these kinds of identity are formed almost exclusively for self-esteem purposes, not for pratical reasons of orientation. People need to know who others are because that makes them feel better about themselves. They don't need names: as long as they can convince themselves that there are people of "the wrong identity" out there, that makes them feel better about themselves by comparison.

>>383672526
I would say that tripfagging is a very different phenomenon. Not sure if it's better or worse than this: tripfaggots are just clowns of this board: individual morons desperately needing the attention.
This obsession with arbitrary labels and identities is more of a mass phenomenon: much like say, the obsession with the idea of "shilling" that used to be so bad at one point that mods had to auto-ban the use of that word and it's variants for a while: it's sort of an unhealthy mass past time.

The identities aren't really stable and they don't change how people post. It's just more of game or ritual.

Probably the thought process was something along the line of "Silent Hill 4 is generally considered to be the worst (or at least most flawed) of the original four games, thus anyone who could claim they enjoy it must be a hipster, and somehow that makes it fedoracore."
Most of these associations have zero actual rationality behind them, just a set of very vague intuitions or associations.

>>383674778
Surely you jest. MGS2 had like 8 hours of cutscene, MGSV having less than half and was all about gameplay and building up Mother Base.

MGS2 actually had a story unlike V, and a story with twists and real life relatable ideas and shit. I love MGS2, but without the story it would be pretty mediocre.

VR Missions may not have been part of the original release pictured in the OP, but nobody plays that anymore (and collecting all its dogtags certainly wasn't a cakewalk), VR Missions are hours of straight unadultered gameplay which is more varied that the samey stuff you do in PW/MGSV.

>vidya = story game with fun focused gameplay?
More of a shallow, accessibility-focused game that requires little investment and is basically going to be entertaining you without you have to work for it.
>game = pure gameplay?
Yeah, game as focused on being a toy, but requiring you to "work" for it.
>vidcon = story game with message?
More like game with a heart: similar to above category, but more memorable, pushing the limits of the format further.
>ludo = puzzle game?
More like just "the highest form of the medium", "true artistic work", something that should potentially be a game-changing experience.

Remember though, kids:
All of this shit is based on ironic /tv/ meme and every single attempt to enforce these fucking cringeworthy, pathetic meaningless new categories or taking them actually seriously makes you an absolute fucking faggot.

The distinction is when games actually succeed in immersing you, I feel more immersed in games with pure focus on gameplay than a game where it's walk forward and watch AAA cutscene over and over.

There's even a style called 'immersive sim' which are pure ludo like Deus Ex, System Shock and Thief - coincidentally those are all three essential fedoracore as well as ludocore.

Actual FedoraCore
Games that pretend to be smart which is why lots of people who are not smart themselves like them. At least lore-wise, it usually has nothing to do with the gameplay.
> Persona
Lots of people who play these can't admit they do it for waifus and simple dungeon crawling. Instead they sperg about Jungian psychology without knowing who Jung really was.
> Bioshock Infinite
Baby's first symbolism.
> Metal Gear Solid
Trying to explain flaming whale is too much. It tries to achieve what SpecOps did but fails terribly. Japs can't do a normal story for life.
> Braid
Great gameplay, pretentious story.
> SpecOps The Line
It's on the verge of being here. Still, it's too hamfisted and too obvious sometimes. Devs try too hard because they consider player to be an idiot. Well, they are often right though.
> NieR
It's an essence of "1000 year old witch search for magical flowers" bullshit. Themes are good, their execution is too japaneese to be considered serious.
> Bioware RPGs
Anyone who considers their story as good should neck himself for liking most generic stories in history of humankind. You can enjoy Bio games for characters, writing... but stories are just smoking garbage written from a template of "evil awakens".

Even though Garrett and Denton are 'pre defined characters' you have 100% agency over how you tackle the levels and in the case of Deus Ex you have 100% agency over the story as well, you can kill pretty much every NPC except Paul I think whenever you want.

Fedoracore are games one plays so he can feel superior to other people and brag about it online while hating on those with "pleb" tastes.
JRPGs, weeb games and games from the 90 and early 2000s are often part of this category. Often a nostalgia fag and a "the first were better" type. He pretends the games he likes are all "niche" games for jaded outcasts even thought some were or still are very popular.
A Fedoracore fan will also unironically use terms such as "casual" and "pleb" as insults and considers himself to be a "hardcore gamer".
