Video Game General 6.3: Sekiro has so many damn chickens man. Chickens Everywhere!

#1. That is not true at all.

#2. You are the problem writ small.

Oh it’s absolutely true. Tell me, how much thought do you put into the clothes you wear, the food you eat, even the games you play? You know how many ethical breaches are required to make each one of those things a reality? Do you honestly care? No you don’t, because they benefit you. You (speaking to the collective consciousness as a whole) only care when an ethical breach personally affects you in some way or you’re pulled into the tide of public outrage.

Every day people are screwed over in the smallest and biggest of ways and no one speaks out for them. You don’t hear shit about it.

You’re right, I AM the problem. I’m not fighting against the system, I’m only enabling it. But I’m one of the few willing to admit that fact rather than turn a blind eye to my culpability.

So not only did you make a very stupid blanketed statement you’re doubling down on it.

Neat.

And people are doubling down on ā€œLikingā€ his stance.

That is kind indicative of how bad a state this nation is in.

I’ll quadruple down on it. I don’t expect anyone to agree with me, you’re grown you can think what you’d like. That’s my stance.

That’s not this nation. That’s the world at large. One day I woke up and just stopped giving a shit. I’ll help the people around me, that’s it. The rest can go burn for all I care. If it makes me evil then sign me up for some devil horns.

It does.

Sad truth is you’re in a long ass sorry line for those horns.

Thanks, though.

Now i have a better idea of who all in this forum to never turn my back on

Don’t worry, I’d be sure to plunge the knife in from the front instead.

Sazh is great for that giant cactaur fight though.

Q: What was the game you were the most hype for, but ended up not playing as much as you thought you would?

A: Grand Theft Auto III, which I desired to play after being blown away by Vice City. I wanted to know more about Tommy Vercetti’s story, but then I discovered the titles had no continuity. I still enjoyed it and played it through to the end, but Claude Speed is no Tommy Vercetti and the narrative while engaging is done no favors by the hollow and emotionless voice acting in the game.

P.S. On a related note, my most regretted purchase is Final Fantasy X-2. I tried to give it a chance multiple times, but the narrative is awful and the character interactions are cringeworthy. I also expected it to follow up on the decent narrative (overall), great presentation, and amazing setting of Final Fantasy X. Overlooking the obvious awkwardness and pathetic self pity of Tidus, I really enjoyed X’s entourage and direction.

Game I was hype for but didn’t end up playing much

SF5 -Nuff said

Dishonored 2 - I liked the story/world but the gameplay didn’t grab me. It’s a good game just not for me.

Arkham Knight - That damn batmobile! Multiple stealth tank battled where you have to creep on them and then shoot a missile into their bootyhole. Best boss battle is against Rock B on a desert backdrop with all those things

Game I was hyped for but ended up not liking is Xenoblade 2. Heard a lot of great things about the game and from what I seen it definitely looked up my alley. When I actually played the game it bored me. I didn’t like how the battle system worked with the action being passive. The reliance on combos made battles against jobbers drag. I ended up giving up on the game 30 hours in.

I don’t really even like jrpg style games but after playing Crisis Core, I dove head first into FFVII because the story was really compelling. Crisis core made me consider playing more FF games, are there any others that have the same combat that crisis core has?

Final Fantasy type-0

The FGC is full of me-too celebrity worshipping tools though. Daigo signing autographs, folks stanning for name players behaving like children, acting like video games are the NFL, community members that don’t stick with anything. The reason the FGC is where it is now because that’s what the community wanted.

This so much. I stopped going to locals because I’m interested in Samurai Shodown, I don’t care about SFV, Tekken, DBZ, etc and it’s pretty much the same as what you described, where everyone plays the new freshness ā€œseriouslyā€ for 2 weeks then goes back to whatever shit they were playing before. I want to be really really good at the games I play, and because of that I don’t really play casually, so playing games I don’t really care about seems like a waste of time.

FC, while it has its flaws, is a great place to learn and it’s a great way to get people to take a chance on a game because there’s no barrier of entry. I can say that without Fightcade, there’d probably be no SamSho 5 Special community like there is now.
