Fuck them. Their price gouging for Revelator is insane. The damage control on Steam is ridiculous.

Every Article I read talks about how 2016 was THE WORST YEAR EVER.
It's hilarious and I am not even a Trump fag.
Though it probably was the worst year for videogames.

I really love GG and I'm not planning on giving it up over some assmad PR fag flipping over the Trump presidency. The price is pretty shit though. As someone who's never tried Xrd and really got into the soundtrack of it and played some Accent Core, I was thinking about buying it but my more rational side decided to wait out on it.


Nah, the worst year was 2007. 2016 had some shit, but 2007 was the turning point where everything started to shift, I feel.

Did they fix Metly Blood's netcode yet?

probably. this rolled out recently.

Looked through the twitter page in general. What a shit PR guy, guessing it's a woman because otherwise he would have been told to tone it down by now.

I'd like to say revelator is way too expensive too, but the truth is I'm not even sure Sign is worth it as 14€ either.

Heh, I was pretty satisfied with it.

This year is objectively the worst year for games.


As much as I love Xrd and waited patiently for the PC release I can't be bothered to pick it up. Arcsys cut itself in two by keeping both Sign and Revelator up, splitting the miniscule community, and expecting the steep price to convince people to move to Revelator.

I got really into Xrd's gameplay too. It's such a damn shame. With the improvements they did make, Accent Core is like an alternate to Xrd in a lot of ways.

The biggest regret about accent core on PC was the shit netcode. I haven't been able to find a single player online.

A better title for 2016 would've been The year everyone loses their shit

OH SHIT

I saw this, and wanted to say that it looked like they were going for liberal bux, but then I remembered, liberals don't buy or play fighting games.


Not the worst, but it was pretty bad. Worst was somewhere in the 2010-2013 range. Can't recall exactly, but there was a year with absolutely nothing but AAA shovelware all fucking year. I wanna say 2011, but I don't trust my memory enough to say conclusively. 2016 was a great year for not video games, but for vidya, it was pretty shit.

ABOUT FUCKING TIME

I haven't played Melty Blood or followed the steam release netcode issue, but judging by your guy's reactions, does this mean it's playable now?

You have to actually play vidya to talk about it.


2009-2011 was nothing but AAA and licensed garbage with some gems.
Much fewer than 2012 onwards.

But why?

Jesus this is pretty cancerous. Didn't they also get really asshurt recently when called out on censorship and overpriced dlc?

2011 had
Maybe not too bad?

this is understatement. I bought GG Revelator on PS3 for less, and got Dizzy gratis on top of that

I was THAT close to getting Raven after fishing up almost everything else including alt costume for Elphet but then the dolls update rolled out and I lost motivation to unlock him

18+ brah

-Shogun 2
-Dark Souls
-Witcher 2
-Dead Space 2 and its still average as fuck
What a shitty year
Then again AAA was at its peak and prrtty much everything was centralized.

Checked.

fuck that fag. he gets paid bucket loads of money to do jack shit. I dont wanna hear his shitty opinions on trump or brexit or whatever. fuck this cunt in the ass.

(checked)
Very nice

Just some PR fag talking in 9gag memes.
I'm not moving from GG to any other fighter over a paid PR twitter spammer.

Think for a moment what a pleasant life most libtards must have that "losing" an election is the worst that ever happened to them

Think about it

2016 was the best year of my life.
And 2017 will be even better.

And I certainly do. What's your point? 2016 vidya was terrible.


If you enjoyed this year, next year will be better, and vice-versa. The magic of the the Fire Cock begins at the end of January. If you follow Chinese Zodiac, whatever happened in the year of the Fire Monkey will be double or more in magnitude, degree, and severity. The good and bad of this year will carry over to next year and be exponentially greater.

I like that name, sounds like a fapping challenge to get cocks on fire

wtf i hate asw now

You know, if they were talking about the Islamic terrorist attacks that happened then I would at least agree that it was a pretty messed up year, but no of course they don't bring that up because then they would be labelled as racists so they just mention the US election.
These people are gross, I mean, people of their own race and blood died for the open border policies that they defend, yet instead of acknowledging that they just complain about Trump winning.

These people are sick. Sad!

It is indeed the worst year.
Umberto Eco and David Bowie died

GGXXAC+R is still the best. I'm not shelling out that much for revelator after getting sign, the fucking kikes. Probably a PR chick.

...

...

It marked the beginning of the great decline, but 2007 itself wasn't actually that bad. We got some decent games
>Bioshock


SUPREME MEME MAGIC YEAR INCOMING

Even back then I realized it was a slog of trash with a facade of not-completely-shit-but-only-for-a-video-game writing

I liked the ruined underwater city setting and shooting lightning and buckshot around at super-hobos. You're a poopyhead.

Then they fucked it all up with Infinite. Seriously fuck that game.

I remember this tweet. They were giving options for presidental candidates from Guilty Gear first without even including Chipp until enough people mentioned it.

Give me some proper info on what was lost. Beside the introduction of stylish, which is useless I don't understand the changes since I don't play at a high skill level.
I don't see another modern fighter that I want to play either.

They've been dead to me since Xrd.

Is there any actual reason to think that they're taking about the burgeristan elections and not about all the terrorist attacks or global political turmoil or all the famous people who died like Carrie Fisher who died a day before that tweet?

I don't know which is more ridiculously, butthurt Clinton supporters convinced that the world is ending or overzealous Trump supporters who think anything is going to change or americans in general for thinking literally everything is about them.

Doesn't seem bad to me. They could mean the daily or rather the minutely terrorist attacks, or something. I mean, the truck thing happened like a week ago. If they said the giveaway was because they want to celebrate a good year, some fags would whine that it's not okay because of the victims of that recent attack.


This isn't anti-Trump, cucked nor anything, Chipp might look like he a bdsm freak from a gay parade but is a literal president of a country in Guilty Gear. The country is named after him, too. It's just a joke.

Seriously guys, look at Arcsys games. Do you honestly think they're liberal friendly with girls like I-No, Ramlethal, Dizzy? With nice touches like Jam's panties changing every day? Granted this twitter is pretty shit anyway, the guy does nothing but spam increasingly crappy reaction images and I wouldn't mind a replacement.


Not the guy, but some character changes are questionable to say the least. Some characters lost a move or two for no reason. Some play a bit differently now (Slayer, some say Faust too but I can't say, didn't play him), but Slayer mostly because he can't do good, safe damage without RCs and that coupled with his shitty range means he just isn't fun anymore. I don't say we should go back to RELOAD where a single hit from this guy took away a third of your health, but I don't like him as he is now.
There are good changes though, like Ky has a different tool and really relies on Spirit Ciel but is overall still fun while I-No got really improved.

Some also complain about one RC type replaced with another which is much easier to use and abuse, but the old one was very strict to say the least. This one has way more applications too, but can make comboing way easier because of slowdown. And yeah, stylish indeed is shit and only meant to perhaps show an absolute newbie the basics of basics of a character.

I think this is more talking about all the celebrity deaths. Although he's PR fag on twitter so they usually have shit opinions that they can't keep to themselves

My point is that you have shit taste if you think this year was one of the worse or underage.


Bioshock was shit and you're shit

they are a bunch of snowflakes

Granted slayer is very different, but not completely bad. His Downward heavy attack is considerably buffed in range.
Faust has some range increase and some extra stuff he can drop from his throw move: helium which changes your voice, oil that slows(I think), a black hole that pulls and a trampoline.
But other characters like Millia are almost untouched.

Wait, what did they censor?

I know that, I just wanted to post the Chipp for President image.

Its a COD game, wish they released expansions instead of a fucking new game each year

Wouldn't pro-Trump be cucked?

I think a lot of PR twitters are trying to copy the style of tweets like the Sonic guy.

Nah dude. 2013 only had like 3 good games if I remember. There were worse years. The only thing bad about this year (in terms of games) was a LOT of the best looking titles are delayed to 2017. Persona 5, Breath of the Wild, Nier, and more im forgetting.
This year I still got to play

WEW

2011 was fucking cancer

Bump for this

Shit list.

...

For me, it's a wonderful little turning point where, for once in a good long while, I feel like things might finally start to get better.
Feels nice.

Nothing to my knowledge. Maybe the poster has mistaken Arcsys for Atlus or something? The only thing I can think of is that you can't look closely and directly at girl panties in Revelator's digital figure mode, but that's also present in the Nip version AFAIK and can be manipulated away by switching models fast or something.

Besides that, dunno. I remember that some people complained about Dizzy getting a redesign I guess? She wears a bit more clothing which makes sense considering she is pretty much a queen of the most important world power's first king, and the piece of clothing can be torn away when fighting anyway.


God Eaters could be there too. They're hardly top tier and got a bit boring (to me at least) after 20 hours, but they're decent enough.

...

Not very confident are you
Well it's appropriate to say, because that list is pathetic.

everything's been better for me this year than in previous years
everyone only thinks it's been bad because a lot famous people they have never heard of died and half of America and the UK got fucked over


How so?

...

GAME

It's an eroge
ero game

Its a short porn cartoon, user

compared to how scummy and incompetent capcom has been this year, arcsys' jewry doesn't even phase me anymore. they aren't the best at handling pc but they've improved significantly with every release except melty and the games themselves have been good.


umvc3 could also be on that list, hopefully the pc port is good

woooooooooooow

...

Two of my biggest regrets of 2016 were Dark Souls 3 and Civ 6

This saddens me, truly.

2016 was awful because we lost Bowie and George Michael.

Outside of Careless Whisper and Everything She Wants, has George Michael done anything good? Even Prince has a longer list of good songs along with being a superb guitarist. The only thing with the death of Prince was that it was talked about endlessly whereas Bowie's passing was a fart in the room. I guess it's in part because Prince's death was unexpected, but Bowie should've gotten a fucking planet named after him for all the attention that was given to Prince.

I haven't played any of the GGXRD games, but I heard that like Baiken, Robo Ky appears in the story mode. Is that true?

they were both old degenerates, who didn't make anything interesting after 80's, so unless you personally knew them, fuck off

I like Michael's solo work more than Wham honestly.
How could I forget about Prince? Fuck. Too many this year.
I agree though. Prince has some really nice funky songs and his flamboyant personality was great but Bowie's overall discography is more solid. An entertainer like no other, and had arguably more impact on the industry.

the Best christmas song

I can't believe that Sanic of all things is such a trailblazer in something that everyone is now trying to emulate his twitter shenanigans.

Man, people got PISSED at that tweet, good memories.

True. In Revelator, Baiken has a pretty decent role and Robo-Ky does a pretty huge thing. Makes you wonder why his series would be discontinued if they can do this.
Since Arcsys police is really autistic about removing the story mode from youtube, the fastest way to see it is either finding a mega with it if it exists or buying the game.

Robo-Ky is the prototype and the last of his kind as well as a hobo. He gets found by Venom and is offered a job. Later, Robo-Ky and Venom kill Bedman, but Robo-Ky is reduced to only the head and Venom "dies" which means he is probably just unconscious. In the epilogue, Robo-Ky's head carries Venom to fuck-knows-where, probably Crow. Baiken protects Kum Haehyun from Universal Will's soldiers while Kum tries to save the Japanese in the Nip Colony from becoming exploding black gears because that's what Nips do.

Now that I think of it, he did do Faith which is alright. I guess it's a matter of taste. I'm not so much of a pop guy and can't tolerate Michael Jackson's post-black discography.

But yeah, I liked Prince more for his ability to play guitar than for his music. David Bowie was much more consistent in quality and created some truly memorable songs while the most I could say for Prince is Purple Rain, When Doves Cry, and Kiss.


True, but then again, they also created the most annoying mainstream song ever.

Wew. Has 2016 been the year that's proved shitposting is a viable path to fame, fortune and power?

2017 will be the year of boipussi

Finally

That was 2014 when exgoons proved they could get faggots' monies for pretending the evul gaymers were harrasing them online with their ePenises

What was messed up about 2016? I see people saying this but it was one of the best years in my life

Please tell me these are posted by some American wing of the company and not Daisuke and his jap slaves at the studio?

SJWs see Brexit, Trump, and Gawker, and probably other shit I'm forgetting, as significant blows to muh progression. Plus celebrity deaths.

Its a great game faggot, get over it.

Wasn't Brexit in 2015? And does anyone actually give a shit about Gawker enough to be sad about them, other than their own kike workers?

Dude, the Brexit vote was in June. This has been a long and glorious year.
Gawker was more just an example of their media being pushed upon; SJWs are starting to feel pressured (and lord knows those snowflakes can't handle pressure).

Main issue is it's another faggot company pulling some low energy election season shit for attention. I never understand how a company thinks this makes them more relatable

These SJWs - the kvetching is intensifying to the point where we may not be able to contain it.

To me Xrd Faust feels a bit slower. Granted I haven't put much time in to the game but I mained Faust in Xrd and his transition to Pogo and item throw seems to have longer startup frames.

I don't know what they were thinking with him.

And Xrd still doesn't have Zappa, A.B.A, or Bacon as playable characters and I was majorly asspained to find out that the Bacon reveal was faked.

Can't bring myself to play the game when +r still exists and Xrd is filled with reject Blazblue characters.

No year for vidya has ever been complete shit unless you are a sonygger or xbot. Nintendo has always released at least a few good games every year and theres always a handful of worthwhile titles coming out for pc if you look hard enough.

I love you, user. Please stick around.

Nice numbers by the way

No, objectively that would be 1983 when the U.S. video game crash happened.

2007 was the last good year

I can understand Bowie, but I can't remember barely anything good from George Michael.
What's worse is we lost half of Emerson, Lake & Palmer.

Wham! was shitty pop bubblegum music that stood out for being superficial in the early 80s, which is saying a lot consider how bad some of our pop music was at the time. George Michael was never good.
On the other hand, Prince had so much talent that other people made entire careers off of covering one of his songs. Sinead O'Connor did nothing with Nothing Compares 2 U but read the lyrics off a fucking page.

May the year of the fire cock be filled with many more memes and liberal tears

tis true

Nah, pretty much all of those are shit.

Those are already classics, user.

sounds fine to me


what the fuck

It was pretty red-pilled and realistic to be honest. Like watching an actually good tv drama. As for the gameplay you right, it was boring.

...

probably why the writing was so bad.

the "2016 so bad" meme disgusts me, so many normalfags just use "le 2016" as a scapegoat for all their personal failures or lack of growth.

...

It's overarching plot was a mess and only a couple of interesting cases in that (~30?) hour mess. There are dogshit anime weaboo garbage visual novels with better whodunnits than this and at least they don't make you slog through shitty cover shooter gameplay and no fun allowed driving segments.

Trouble in Terrorist Town and similar mafia-inspired games (not the Mafia videogame I mean the party game) are the only good video game murder mysteries since the murder and the investigation are both pure 100% gameplay, albeit multiplayer with usually shit communities. Aside from that it's just Ghost Trick which probably doesn't count in this aspect and Danganronpa which is only technically a game and it has some pretty terrible murders mixed in with genius ones DR2 chapter 5.

You could have just Googled it to save yourself the embarrassment of your post user.

STOP REPOSTING THIS SHITTY PICTURE AND FIX IT ALREADY YES I AM FUCKING MAD

Guilty Gear would be so popular on PC right now if they released their products properly.. They are either really stupid, really greedy, or both.

Its a superior fighting game, and actually more fun than SFV, but because they has players(crossplat) and a company that doesn't release SFV-make over titles every week they get the cookies, while the superior product rots in the trash.

Its maddening how retarded it is.

Is this supposed to be "good games" or just "culturally significant games?"

If they're supposed to be good then this is dogshit because Mass Effect 2 was legitimately awful and it somehow got 4 tile spaces.

Because all the terrorist attacks or global political turmoil or all the famous people who died happen EVERY YEAR and are quickly forgotten faster than a dog fart, while the result of said burgeristen elections was something that caught EVERYONE by surprise so of course the salt is flowing in torrents.

But what's even more ridiculous are idiots posting anonymously on macro image boards being all high and mighty jerkwads with their so-claimed neutrality. No better than goons, really.

I voted for Hillary

I voted for Kodos

They didn't censor shit, just another misinformed retard talking out of his ass. The only fighting game that was censored in recent memory was SFV.

Only Zappa or Baiken players want these characters back, anyone who had to face them in +r is fucking glad they're gone.

MKX too, but can't blame you for not mentioning it.

I honestly forgot MKX even existed.

Oh I'm not neutral. I detest Americas retarded foreign policy, and I wish they'd get shadowbanned from the global community. America is one of the biggest shit stains in the world, and without them, the rest of us might actually make some progress towards a peaceful existence.

History shows that before America became a world power, the rest of the planet had no problem fucking each other over. Even afterwards the same applies. And then in the past we've had to bail out our allies who get tangled into wars that are too large for them to handle.

It's a delusion to think that America is the reason why the world is still in turmoil. We're nowhere near perfect but cmon with that bullshit user.

Wouldn't you be upset that your fightan mains weren't added into the updated release after a couple of years?

Still waiting for Bridget and robo-ky.

America was pretty good in the recent past. Now it's just cancer.

kek, go back to /r/gaming
