pity bump?

What's exactly wrong with the /v/ reccy wiki?

>>384151839
overrun with moralfags, dumb admins and shovelware.

Just got malware. What the fuck!!!!

>>384151839
for one, it has no connection to /v/ in the modern day
this is not inherently a problem but it at least renders the name wrong, and as bad as /v/ is it may have been a wall against something worse

>>384151839

It recommends Gone Home, for one.

>>384151839
Apparently, whoever currently owns it forgot it was about /v/, as in, this board and its taste.

There's nothing wrong with the /v/ wiki outside of the modern gen systems, which you shouldn't be playing anyway. Remove the PS4, XBone, Wii U and Switch and the shovelware goes away.

>>384152280

>>384152432

That doesn't sound like it represents /v/ very well.

>>384152486
I'm trying to make a decent site for recommendations since google gives the most common results and the old one's admins are retarded. They removed the abandonware section because muh piracy.

>>384152437

It was at some point, but then it was ruined by being linked on a popular reddit page 24/7 (this was at least four to five years ago).

>>384151839

>whoever currently owns it forgot it was about /v/, as in, this board and its taste.
Tell me anon, whats "/v/'s" opinion of Undertale?

The amount of people that crossed over from Tumblr to talk about the game at launch meant you couldnt get an actual opinion about the game from /v/, and once the GameFAQ's shit hit the fan people were saying it was a good game just to get free (You's). This is all disregarding the fact that it was shilled when the Kickstarter went live (Even though that got a decent reception due to it only being The Ruins and not having a clear indication of how bad the writing would get later in the game) and at launch.

It was a game made by Homestuck fans for their Tumblr circle and anybody who enjoyed it says its writing, filled with dead memes and random humor along with its basic plot and twists, was "amazing". How are you going to deal with the Strawpoll bombing of that game, either positive or negative?

>>384153494
I personally don't think having a wiki for a set of lists isn't a good idea. The only benefit to having that would to have a semi HG101 style thing with a page talking about the game, but that can easily replaced with something more intuitive.

Who in their right mind would want video game recommendations from /v/ in the first place though

Besides it'll always either be a shitshow from a thousand different anons or 1-5 people making all the decisions of what to add in which case they'll be their recommendations rather than /v/'s

>>384154094
Are there any wikifarms that actually just use fucking Mediawiki still? I seem to remember Wikia not being cancerous at some point.

>>384154094
Theres no other place to host a free wiki with this kind of content

>>384154268
Not that anon, but Undertale is a perfectly mediocre game.

Don't even bother
Anything that's ever popular on /v/ is eventually stolen by reddit.

Everything outside the combat and music is pretty mediocre. Combat is interesting, but only the bosses really push the system so most of the time you'll be board

>>384154736
The bossfights and music are pretty much the only reason I'm even being generous enough to call it mediocre in the first place. They really bring up the rest of the game with their originality.
>>384154864
This is a good option as well, and I imagine it'll be used for this wiki since it's something that most of /v/ can actually agree on.

Maybe once upon a time, these days /v/ bases its opinions too much on emotions.

Recommendations from modern /v/ are pretty much ruled by political views, ideological views and nostalgia as opposed to actual merits and demerits of games.

We could do what /vg/'s /emugen/ emulation wiki did. They were formerly hosted on Wikia, but there was the danger of the wiki getting shut down for hosting BIOS files. So, the guy that runs /vr/'s console repair wiki offered to host the site.

So I guess we just have to go to /vr/ to the console repair thread, and ask the guy if he'd be willing to host the new wiki.

Arma 2 and 3 ?
dead space one and two.
FF 1-6 and maybe 10
Pathologic??
Morrowind and maybe oblivion maybe.
Fallout one and two.
Chrono trigger
Gothic two (before a shitstorm starts, I am not compairing it to shit or trying to start any shit.)
witcher 2-3 maybe (see above)
Planescape torment
Pillars of eternity maybe?
Deus ex

Dwarf fortress.
Aurora maybe???

Most of these are just recommendations of course, /v/ is not one person after all, and tends to be rather....divisive at times.

True, but that problem's much more manageable than being based off of literally any other site, which is where the current wiki went wrong.

>/v/ is one person with one opinion

Gee I wonder how a list of recommendations from literally anybody could be too varied. Are you going to make people make accounts to edit the new wiki, retard?

>>384154590
Well, I'm split between which version. The Wii's waggle is done pretty surprisingly well, and it offers widescreen. But the Gamecube has better graphics (some particle effects were removed from the Wii version).

I guess if someone was to emulate the game through Dolphin, the widescreen issue and controller issue would be moot. But on real hardware, you gotta choose between widescreen, waggle, and slightly worse graphic effects, or 4:3, standard controls, and better graphics.

What about classic and /v/ beloved games like FFVII, or Deus Ex and MGS3? Are those a given or will we be having votes on those too?

>>384158191
Some of the textures in the GC version are more pixelated than their Wii counterparts.

>>384158191
Don't forget the different lore and the missing Menu screen.

Tactical RPG with Disciples like combat system but using unit numbers instead of HP, also features dungeon fights where it's only characters.

It contains lots of content, pretty cool and nonlinear story line that is affected by your choices of when and in what order to conquer shit on top of other more obvious choices. Also features a bunch of non canon routes that are pretty big and fun actually. There are tons of characters and events with them too.

You really need to find a better way to do this. Having thousands of individual polls made is extremely unlikely and even more unlikely is that over 1% of them will get any attention. Basically just sell it as your own recommended games list, maybe take suggestions on games sans the polling bullshit, and if it's got a good selection of games and a nice layout people will use it.

With 70% you're going to get shitty games that people only like for mods and multiplayer like Fallout 3 and Rocket League. The list should be the absolute acme of gaming.

There needs to just be a huge list of game and if they reach past a specific large(r) number then they make it on the list. These thousand strawpolls are so inconvenient.

This is basically what Steam did.
Does anyone notice that basically all of Steam has positive reviews? Steam did that so they can all have positive reviews, becuase their goal is to sell games, not be critical.

The problem with yes/no votes means that a vast majority of games will be recommended, because there is no difference in recommendation of a great game vs one that was alright to play.

>>384161881
Then make a specific rule for that shit? Simple as that. Rocket League is a good game, it legit is just multiplayer so yes, the base game is good.

I actually do, you can find out a lot about how good a game is, by how bad it is.

The whole point of a site like this is so you understand the reviewers tastes and can use that to make assertions whether the recommendation is valid.

>It's shit 0/10
>it's GOAT 10/10
Means shit if it's anonymous.

If someone you know hates puzzle games says a puzzle game was fun, and you have the same tastes as that person it might be worth checking out.

At the end of the day, these sites don't work based on that. And if somehow it did get up and running and comprehensive, it wouldn't be exclusively /v/ anymore, so you can forget that.

For old games included in rom compilations instead of actual ports, in what situation would you choose the rom compilation over just getting the game for the original system? The only reasons I can think is if it includes bonus content (which is usually minor shit), if it includes bugfixes (which is usually not the case), or if it's was Japan-exclusive on the original console and the compilation includes a localization (which translation patches usually alleviate).

>>384167873

What about games with a port, and both versions are slightly different, but the pros and cons for each of them kinda cancel each other out. For example, the previous Metroid Prime example. Or, Viewtiful Joe, where the Gamecube version runs better, but the PS2 version has Dante from DMC. What's prioritized, the performance or the bonus content?

>>384169840
Multiple preferred versions are allowed. Eventually a page for the game will detail the differences.

>>384170047
So, it sounds like it'll be less of a wiki, and more of /v/'s version of Hardcore Gaming 101, but with more concise articles? Not that that's a bad thing. Just trying to see where we're going with this

Wouldnt it just be easier to import their list and remove all the shit games? Generally speaking it just needs tweaking.

>>384150142

whoops forgot link

I don't think this will work as many games have tons of fans but also people who just hate the game more than they normally would, because it's popular.
For example quite a few people here love Zelda but then again since the switch release people hate it a lot, mainly from all the spam and kids flooding in.
Similarly like Bloodborne getting hate from PC gamers since it's an exclusive and it's been cool to hate the souls series since it' popular.

It pretty much turns into, does this game's fanbase annoy you or is this popular game something you don't like, rather than, is this a good game?
I mean I don't like Monster Hunter or Uncharted but I acknowledge it's a good game, quite a few people like them.

There must be a reason to vote yes and especially not.

"hidden gem" discussions are always the worst because the filthy casuals recommend mediocre yet popular games and the hardcore video game players recommend super ultra obscure games that are trash because they consider anything remotely good to be too well known.

At that point you need a curator.

Listen, I've seen absolute bottom of the barrel shit have a fanbase, and in general, most games are OK, and playable. Very few are unplayable garbage.

This means most games will get approved. Which means you're running into content bloat, and exactly the same problem the current wiki has.

You can't do it without a curator. At which point it's no longer /v/ and anonymous. Pick your poison.

>>384153114
Lyric was always an asshole. Fucker deleted all of NESfag's screencaps. IIRC he's still not an admin, and Magma needs to shut the fuck up.

Also, I admittedly fucked a few things up myself, because I was worried that we'd have the whole damn thing deleted because wikia's staff have the same paper skin as tumblr (which is why we got hit with a "mature content" warning when we started listing porn games).

And since you fags don't know shit about shit, Reddit was had linked to us without our permission and despite our protests and attempts to remove the link, the cunt admins over there refused to do so (getting in contact with them is also a pain in the ass as well because they have no emails or messaging outside of using fucking reddit, and fuck that).

Oh, and outside of reddit, Twitter and Facebook also had a shit ton of casuals and normalfags sharing the wiki address as well (this was actually something of a surprise for me, since I didn't think they'd give that big a shit).

The roughest problem, content-wise, that wikia was busting our asses about was that there were links to romsites and whatnot early on, because that's technically linking to "illegal content" or some shit.

The whole wikia thing, at least what I think could be from Kotep's perspective, is that it was meant to be easy to use, easy to edit, and available for anyone (since even non-logged in users could edit stuff). Unfortunately, this meant spam from outside parties (like R4), edit wars, and other bullshit coming from both inwards and outwards.

If it had been merely a domain built from the start by /v/ for /v/ with no outside parties like Wikia enforcing rules, then I think everything could have gone better. I wouldn't have been worried as much, the users would be more free to do whatever (for better or worse), and maybe we would have been anonymous, or at worst, only used numbers or something garbled equivalent to tripcodes instead of dumbass names.

I don't really care about the old wiki, and I have no beef with the new one. I personally don't give a shit if you use anything you think has value of the old wiki either, but Kotep might, since he made the thing, so you might want to let him know if you directly rip assets and what not. He's a pretty cool and calm guy though, and I get the feeling he'd be alright with it as long as you just give him a notice ahead of time.

Hopefully it won't run on wikia, and end up on its own site free from outsider rules and non-/v/ bullshit, which would be for the best.
As I noted, I have no problem admitting I personally fucked up big time, even worse so when I didn't notice that I left the locks on too long, which was bullshit on my part, among other stupid shit I did.

That being said, as a small and really obvious warning, do make sure that whatever you do, you keep out cunts who are all about fucking everyone's shit up i.e. really rotten shit like throwing malicious code in the site through some means or hosting shilling for stuff like china products, not minor stuff like people who argue about games and whether something deserves a place in the rec wiki or not.

Depending on how fast you're breaking those gourds, that choice can be very important

can we use a site other than strawpoll, having to fill out a captcha for every single strawpoll is fucking annoying as shit

It was loved during the initial release and when the demo dropped. Everything afterwords was the result of a kneejerk reaction to it getting popular with certain people.

>>384175091
>>384175165
cool
don't forget to shut off poll access to new ips after a day or so to solve the issues of the old site

>>384174137
Oh, so you're not pretending, thanks for the clarification.

would be nice if i could go in the existing list of games and vote up or down on them

Change the background to something darker, its blinding me.

>Assuming you're actually a real admin at the wiki and not just some troll,
I was. I voluntarily gave up my position after my fuck repeated fuck ups, and I would only use the login again if something really fucking bad happened (example: malicious code and/or files or a majority of the pages overrun with spam and pics of shitting dick nipples) and nobody else was taking care of it.
>do you think it's salvageable?
At first, I was going to say "LOL NO", but
>Maybe not as a Wikia hosted wiki, of course,
Then I guess so, buuuut
>but what if it gets mirrored to a different domain, and all the shit content edited out. That's what /vg/'s emulation wiki did when they left Wikia.
as I said in >>384174359 (you're alright, you posted this before I submitted my reply, so no big deal)
I don't think you should really bother.
I figure you all can just take whatever you find worth a damn and use it on the new site. Some of the pics especially are pretty solid quality (Example: I remember someone else finding a pic of the boxart for Konami's Hunter X Hunter GBC castlevania-like game in much better quality than I could find at the time).
If you all decide on using something more akin to a database style format (I think one guy tried something like this a few years ago but I forgot the link. It was impressive though, even used some sort of recommendation algorithms or something, but I don't know if it ever took off. I was an idiot back then and figured we didn't need it due to the wiki, but when I actually looked at it a day after or so, I was damn impressed and really regret being such a dick to the guy.).

The only thing that really sucks about all of this is that Reddit will probably get their grubby claws on it as well after linking to it from their site. I didn't even know about >>384160871 until today. Fuck reddit and wikia.

>>384157808
You just need someone try to update and maintain it once a week with threads like this one.

>>384175417
>literally r*ddit
no

>>384175591
will do. It hurts mine too.

>>384176116
I was thinking daily but weekly will do as well I guess.

>>384176215
>>>literally r*ddit
>no
but isn't that literally what we're doing right now with strawpolls
just disable voting in a few hours and it'll be fine

>>384153218
Jesus christ, Lyric. What a fucking dumbass.

>>384176215
Weekly is definitely the best for shit like this, daily threads attract mod attention and shitposters, neither of which you want.

>>384176487
alright cool.

>>384154554
please give sauce to the music in that gif please god dammit someone has to find it one day.

>>384176215
There isn't a problem with daily, I just said weekly because I know interest will taper off. You don't want threads where its dominated by the same group of people all the time or you will end up just having the same problem again.

>>384176215
>I was thinking daily but weekly will do as well I guess.
don't do it weekly or daily
do it on a random schedule or you'll attract circlejerkers. random day every 1-3 weeks.

>>384158583
Not on Bing!

>>384172753
But wouldn't you agree the games I listed are neither obscure trash nor particularly well-known?

voting is up.

>>384177290
I'm not seeing anything different.

Five minutes in Google reverse image search. Mind you, I don't even watch anime, you lazy piece of shit.

>>384177157
They're /v/ consensus good obscure games except maybe Pathologic. Recommending God Hand at this point on /v/ is barely any more useful than recing Deus Ex

>>384156363
>civ style game

cmon, you can do better than that.

>>384156185

Sengoku plays like those Koei games like Nobunaga's Ambition and Romance of the Three Kingdoms, the older ones. It is much simpler, and has a VN side to it, and lots of H.

For games on systems with different names depending on region (example: Genesis/Mega Drive, Turbografx-16/PC Engine, Super Nintendo/Super Famicom), which name do we use for the system. Both? Same thing applies for games with different names dependent on region (example: Contra is Probotector in Europe. Goemon's Great Adventure is Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon 2 in Europe.)

Me neither.

Surely DK 94 belongs on a list of this type, but it gets me thinking about the organization of the thing when it comes to systems, or preferred systems.

I think if it is a title available on download shops, the compatible consoles for download versions shouldn't be listed in the consoles section, instead just original system releases for that version, and then a separate tab (available as digital download) list all systems that have a download version.

Not all games run best on the hardware they were made for either. DK 94 was a Game Boy game on a Super Game Boy game pak which means the best way to play it is on a Super Nintendo with the Super game Boy Adapter. It's not just this game either.

Shantae is a GBC game, but it plays best on a GBA

Red Dead Redemption is an Xbox 360 and PS3 release, with the Xbox 360 version being the definitive choice due to it playing better, with no tearing on Xbox One.

and what about modified Download exclusives with expansions released?

The ONLY complete level release of Super Mario Advance 4 is on Wii U, because it has all the eReader card levels plus the Wal-mart exclusive Airship card.

Like OP, I know this is a great idea and it's just the start, but if you really want to have a preferred/available systems category, it may need to be elaborated upon.

alright fixed. Voting is up right now.

Whoops. Voting is broken currently so hold on.

vs-antirecommended-games.wikia.com

I've made this wiki so that we can list the reasons why games are shit, why we hate them, and why nobody should ever play them even if they are recommended here, so start making pages and write whatever you want to fill it out

>>384182486
>vs-antirecommended-games.wikia.com
you do know this entire wiki will be memes right?

>>384182921
then it will be the same as current /v/ :^)

I doubt anyone will even use it, so ill edit in some categories and shill it in another thread if OPs site is brought up again

>>384174137

This game will destroy the lists credibility very quickly.

brains fried. Gonna head off and actually play some vidya. I'll post another thread when this goes down and take some more site suggestions from there. Don't expect any updates until later tonight.

Wikia has too many ads and i cant hide them, goddamn.
