What about a userbase you are a part of will you never understand?

What about a userbase you are a part of will you never understand?


There was a game dev who got crucified on twitter for comparing a "cinematic action sequence" climbing a cliff dodging debris in Uncharted 4 and crossing a road in frogger and pointing out the inputs were identical and it was all just flash.

I am the closest a rational mind could get to sonygger tier and i still dont understand why these mediocre but pretty games are regarded as sacred treasures, i just dont get it.

Do you have a comparable feel you feel?

I just dont understand them

Technically its calling it a shameless rip off when you think about it. The fanboys were bottom blasted to put it mildly.
Last time i saw shit taste this bias and skewed i saw a Famitsu review for a nintendo title.

It's the mystery of Holla Forums, right next to my digits

I don't get it either.

I really don't get why so many people on Holla Forums are hellbent on enforcing the status quo. Not to discuss anything, or to contribute anything, but to simply debate the same shit over and OVER AND OVER, only because they see a post which they believe does not belong in their vision of what an ideal Holla Forums should be.
It's so fucking ridiculous, many discussions seem to play out in the same way no matter how often they happened, I just can't fathom why you'd repeatedly throw yourself in the fray for something you (I believe) KNOW will not really change the minds of those involved, let alone inform them of something new. You'd have to be severely inexperienced to not see the futility in it all, yet something somewhere seems to have successfully spread the meme that you can actually benefit the board through effortless shitposting.

The required mindset is one question, but the methods of enforcement are another. Many times have I asked those who post empty replies such as 'go back to reddit' whether they believe if their targets actually WILL go back to reddit, or whether by telling others to return to reddit will have an actual effect. Most of the times I have received no answer, but those who did actually took their time to explain that they think shitposting IS the only solution, that Holla Forums is largely inhabited by retards and thus deserve no serious reply. But on the question whether shitposting actively deters retards, their answers came down to only hopes.

And so I ask of you, dubsposters, /(lefty)pol/ warriors, (anti-)DRM activists, anti-Overwatch posters, and the rest of similar ilk who believe you are keeping the board safe:

Do you believe that, after all this time, your efforts have been effective?
Do you believe your methods of enforcing the status quo are actually effective?
And most importantly, what is it that drives you? What is it that gives you the energy and motivation to spend your free time on an anonymous imageboard posting the way you do?

>never played Uncharted 3 or 4
What are you talking about op? Frogger is a damn good game.

Anyone who likes modern Naughty Dog, like Jesus Christ it's like people praising DmC: Devil May Cry and treating the devs like they've made the series from the start.

Autism

Im the same but with Nintendo, I love their consoles and their games but the fambase is unbearable for the most part.

Holla Forums
:^)

Holla Forums is just Holla Forums but for video game porn.

Go back to reddit fag

Fucking this. Can't talk about any vidya without some shitposting faggot coming in to post garbage no one else cares about. You can even make threads about objectively great games like Custom Robo and some faggot will pop in and say "fucking nintendrones" as if that has anything to do with how great that game is.

Personally, the most cancerous thing I keep seeing is "there are no good games in CURRENT YEAR" and then when you prod, you find out they don't even know what came out this year past a few shitty AAAs. Sometimes you'd swear the only companies that exist are Bethesda, EA, Blizzard, and Ubisoft, but thankfully those anons are faggots and if you're wondering where to find more vidya you don't even have to work for it: just ask Holla Forums and people will deliver.

I will never understand the autism and faggotry of the Souls fanbase. Easily one of the worst in all of gaming.

The people on Holla Forums that are gay

did you save my post? that looks like a post I might have made back in 2014. I was really salty about Dork Sowe's II. Wait a minute we've had ID's for years. Is that a screenshot from cuckchan?

Pic related is surprisingly true.

That is a screenshot from a few months before DaS 2 was released, back on cuckchan, yes.

Thanks!

I agree to be honest.

Why does that girl have purple yogurt on her face?

Why do you goons do the same shit over and over again? Do you think people are retarded?

Its clearly some form of empathic, photonic plasma residue from a stable haunting Peter.

HOSEI
OUTTO

It's because there's nothing to debate except what Gothic is better

hate faggots but I love it to tell them I am going to murder them. So why would anyone want to go to your board when you explicitly stated no fun allowed?

Why don't you fuck off to your shitty board then faggot

I need to watch this shit

All hostilities aside why did you feel the need to make the board? I'm curious as I've seen absolutely no sjw shit on this Holla Forums, in fact nearly every thread devolves into anti-sjw talk. So I'm wondering what's different about your board?

Goons are stirring shit up after they raided again through another site.

Are you saying the /agv/ user is the goon or he is attempting to escape goons?

why would you want to about videogames? Are you some sort of hipster faggot?
play video games

Well jews goons always play both sides, I can't say beyond the fucking timing.

Can't argue with thay satan
You talk like you're not from around here. No one is preaching love tolerance and acceptance. Also who gives a fuck about GG? I'm more inclined to agree with satan and say you're probably a goon

What kind of massive thin skinned faggot gets so triggered by gays that he makes another board?

The fact that I just got banned proves there are indeed sjw faggots here

Also read rule 4 of my board, I'm not a fucking goon

>>>Holla Forums

I'm the goon?

Stop being so fucking cynical and give it a chance, I'm not your enemy you moron. This thread is depressing.

Whatever you say goon

Holy christ, and I thought I was delusional, I'm only trying to help.

All I can tell you is that this horrible fucking timing.

...

checking out your goon honeypot
>>>/oven/

You're trying way to hard to fit in and you're making up non existent enemies. You got banned so there's sjw's on Holla Forums? Go look over at the LOL thread or the Webm thread. Half the threads are shitting on SJWs and nothing happens to those. Gee I fucking wonder why

It is horrible timing, because I'm new here, and I had to watch 4chan get increasingly fucking gay and plebbity, and felt fucking hopeless about it.

Then I found Holla Forums, and I thought it was fucking fantastic, and anti-sjw, but after lurking here a bit I see that GG is nothing but a depressed shell of it's former self… slowly succumbing to the same faggotry at 4chan.

I'm trying to motivate you guys to do something, anything for fucks sake. Desperation makes people do desperate things.

...

I love Nintendo, and have played the shit out of it up until the Wii era. The Wii was extremely disappointing.

That being said, GOOD LORD is the fanbase fucking awful. I've seen bad consolefags on Sony and Xbox sides, but NONE have stooped as low as I've seen Nintendo fans.

The worst part is, I've been banned multiple times, once for the entire summer of 2015, after calling out how bad Nintendo has been recently, as well as the fanbase.

Either mark or one of the mods here is a fuckin nintendrone cause I've been seen plenty of Consolewars between PC and Sony here, but as soon as you touch nintendo, you get banned.

fuck off back to cuckchan then you fucking faggot

OH forgot my newest favorite

I can't go back there, it's fucking awful…

Kinda funny seeing ">>>/cuckchan/" every single day knowing every single person here is a 4chan rapefugee and there were all of 20 people on 8ch before us. Migrants telling migrants to go back, what a world we live in.

remember, if you have differing opinions, you must be from cuckchan. Holla Forums is a hivemind of course.

Yeah the SJWs on Holla Forums's Holla Forums that you claim are here don't fucking exist you massive retard.

(checked)
>>>/cuckchan/

This

Why the fuck do you think ``I`` left 4chan in the first place?

There's really no point to getting involved in it in the first place
You'd only be saying what everybody already knows

I swear to fucking god I know a guy that's like this.

Less about the inflation porn and more about the nintendo/nostalgia worship, never grew out of the Mario phase.

conversations with this guy at work start out with him talking about Crash Bandicoot or Super Mario Sunshine and he constantly rerails onto that subject, doesn't talk about much else, and when I recommend him games on say the PS4 or PC (Recently I tried to get his ass on Yakuza 0), his version of research is looking on PSN and looking at the fucking STILL SCREENSHOTS.

I told him to look up videos on youtube, even risked getting caught by a manager to do this on my phone and then he got hooked on the game after seeing it.

But holy shit there's just so much shit I didn't know about how casual he was. He's not autistic or damaged, he's just ignorant as fuck, that's who we're dealing with. I have to ease this motherfucker into everything, it's fucking retarded.

If you're so concerned about quality why the fuck would you only leave halfchan now? Why not 3 years ago with the majority of the board? Another reason you're fucking retarded

...

sounds like he browse 8/v/?

Great, now you can learn how to fit in the hard way rather than lurking more.

No, just some dude at my job. Not even 4chan level, not even ANYTHING. He's sheltered as fuck.

I alreadt got banned from the gg thread because the mod is a massive faggot and keeps calling me (119)

same. I live in Las Vegas, very big city, know alot of gamers. I know exactly ONE WiiU owner. he owns ALL the games, and alot of amiibos, some of which I KNOW he jizzed on cause he's a full autist and told us once.

He even got us kicked out of Dennys for literally throwing a 25 year old temper tantrum after losing in Project M.

Well congratualtions people like overwatch here too, what's your shitty board going to do? Ban any game discussion you don't like? Is no overwatch a rule on your board? I don't lie the game either but I don't get so triggered about it that I make a board to get away from it. I simply hide the thread and move on. Jesus fuck its no wonder you just came here from halfchan

It is a rule overwatch is bannable

Perhaps you should take the hint and reflect on yourself first.

For what? For standing up for what I believe in despite getting mocked and called a shill by people who are supposed to be on my fucking side?

No wonder nobody fucking tries anymore, you've all been beaten down by Holla Forums & /lgbt/

Christ your faggotry is literally off the charts

Even the faggots on that board are less faggoty than you

do you still have the post?

Wow, my version is nowhere near that. I live in the backwater suburbs where almost NO ONE plays video games beyond the casual picks.

At least I was able to get him in on Yakuza.

every time

My bad, I should have been saging for offtopic and not engaging the halfchan faggot

Mold that fucker into a lean mean vidya machine, he's got potential.

that's good. I still need to play those. PCSX2 always craps out on the first level, and my PS3 hasnt had enough space for the installations for 3 and 4

Same in all fields.

No, it's because you're behaving like a fucking faggot. Here's some free advice, learn to bend over and not make a stink out of fucking everything time to time. You'll have more people taking you seriously if you aren't behaving like a dense retard getting uppity over the smallest shit and becoming the center of attention by responding to everyone.
Shitposts and other assorted posts are best replied to by not replying in the first place, or by responding in a way which does not involve taking the bait.
Whether you're in the wrong or not doesn't matter, faggots will get ridiculed no matter what. If you still believe you were not in the wrong, don't be surprised when nobody takes you seriously.

tl;dr lurk moar and git gud at posting

why would you post in the containment thread? The faggots who still post about gg in the containment thread are Chrischan tier.

...

I think they aren't really Holla Forums users, just crossboarders using Holla Forums as a dumping ground since it can't hurt their karma/upboats/reputation/insert forum score here. Or they're just angry shits.

I was convinced understanding eachothers' viewpoints is one possible intention behind debates, or Socratic debates at least. The thing is that debates and the aforementioned enforcement of the status quo are two different things. Rather than people trying to get their point across, you'll now see a lot of examples of pure territorialism, like two gangs fighting with eachother. In this case people would be arguing to get the other guy to fuck off (I assume), which does not need to involve proper argumentation. Making a proper fool out of the other guy would also be one method, but one that requires some effort. My question was aimed at those who intentionally or unintentionally seek to create a hugbox, though.

Holla Forums was always shit, it just becomes more and more apparent the longer you linger

I don't know how much that woman gets paid but it isn't enough…

Just filter them.
There, problem solved.

Chis isn't a woman.

I feel the same way with Bioshock. Bioshock: Infinite being watered down is as believable as water being watered down yet it still manages to do that.

I don't think that Nintendo fanboys are the worst just because people decided to make a "Let's discuss why Nintendo is shit." thread several times on the same day while claiming that the lack of criticism directed at Nintendo as justifications for making the thread.

Imma need citation on that. Shittalking Nintendo almost always ends in a week ban minimum.

I didn't say daily threads. I said several threads on the same day. I'm not implying that they are from the same person but it shows the kind of faggots that can't search catalogs. Most likely newfags.

still waitin on that citation bud

People who are so obsessed with characters that they focus on every menial detail of their dialogue and appearance, and who make details about what said character's life is like

A good example is Overwatch, because while it is very popular, a huge chunk of the fanbase is too busy obsessing over the characters and how they interact with each other. Really any game's fanbase on Tumblr suffers from this

...

I know that pain. I know a couple of people who will defend Bioware and their games, thinking Mass effect and Dragon age are the best RPGs out there. I try to argue with them by bringing up better games and pointing out the shit Bioware does in their games, along how they're nothing compared to other RPGs and RPGs of old (both gameplaywise and storywise), but they go into full-defense mode and try to say how I'm just nitpicking or go into full detail on what the games do and how amazing a feature is, sometimes taking a minute to come up with anything they can use as an argument. The arguments only got worse from there. They've even said that they don't care about Bioware giving their "fans" nothing but shit and shoving SJW-tier shit into their games. They will buy any Bioware game, or any game that is hyped for that matter, regardless if it's shit and they are aware of it. They can't comprehend the criticism or something wrong with the games and will do whatever it takes to defend it and if they find a game to be shit, they still end up doing the same thing next time another hyped up game comes out.

I used to play a lot of good games with these people back in the day, but over time as they moved on they became more and more casual, only focused on the latest and newest games, forgetting what a good game is supposed to be and becoming the very thing that's killing gaming; being a modern "hardcore gamer", spending and giving money to devs that produce and sell shit while pandering to people who don't even buy games.

...

it is fixed

FUCK THE G

YOU DIDN'T SEE THAT

Post it fgt

k

...

I love you guys

>still wanna talk about modern casual games because I find them fun and/or comfy

Not once in 6 years of coming here have I ever found satisfaction. Even when I go to talk about the qualities I love about older games, Holla Forums shits on those qualities because you fags can't find anything to love about games.

I desperately don't want to go to reddit because I fucking hate reddit, but Holla Forums has never been home either. You make me want to fucking kill myself because it makes me feel like nobody actually loves this hobby, they either superficially post "DAE REMEMBER OCARINA OF TIEM?" on reddit for useless upboats, or they shriek "ALL GAMES ARE FUCKING GARBAGE GODDAMN YOU HOW DARE YOU ENJOY VIDEO GAMES VIDYA MARKET CRASH WHEN?"

I just wanna have that magical childlike appreciation for vidya again, but I can't because I'm trapped in a world of hipsters, posers and critics.

Here's one that's a lot more recent
Holla Forums is currently dead because of you non-lurking faggots, and you need to be purged.

I've been here for years, I've soaked up everything Holla Forums has to offer. Most of it is mediocre, some of it is pure shit, the rest is distilled autism. If there was a better forum I'd go there, but sadly this dungheap is the cream of the crop.

You believe there is only the same people. That's your problem. Probably think the "active users" section on Board Stats are individual people in total to the whole board.

HOW THE FUCK IS THIS VIDEO REAL

(checked)
I got you fam. This place is a shithole but it's still the best place there is because it's the least fucked. Chans bring out the worst in people, and they attracted the worst of people, it's just how they are.
It's like says, of all the places on the internet this place is the least shit, but it's still fucking shit.

By whom?
Artificial consensus is a thing.


Lurk more faggot.

Get out, SJW.

Pretty funny you calling someone an SJW while posting a pedo.

...

...

JoJo is full of patron saints for those deemed unclean or unworthy by society.

He's a bully who picks on people smaller than him

He doesn't look so mean

There's no discussion to be had there though, it's the first one.

What a shit post, here is the sauce at least spankbang.com/y918/video/zone xxxtreme ghostbusters

You understand reddit isnt an alternative for this site right? That you even think the two are comparable means you probably aren't that experienced with imageboards. Try to ignore the posts you don't like, it's not your culture

You know perhaps reddit would be more your speed

(checked)
I don't know, man. To be honest chans were the best places to talk about various things for me for the last 4 years or so.
Anonymous posting lets people shit on absolutely everything for any unexplainable reason and deny anything what other people say. In the same time it allows people to bring some good points about obscure, sub-par or any game that is "popular" to fling shit at without fear of being mocked forever.
However, there's also a problem of hivemind. Some people may not even play games you want to discuss, but throw dirt at them simply because majority of local users does so.
There're also paranoid people or weirdos that see things that aren't even there. These ones usually post nonsense like " >>>Holla Forums " or "go2reddit" or legitimately think that simple shitposting without properly derailing thread into completely different topic is a great way to disrupt discussion. As long as people keep replying to them, they are right. For some people it only sounds easy to not to respond to such posts or hold themselves from going "don't reply to shitposts" all over the thread But, uh, sometimes people seek not for approvement, but for not disapprovement instead. So they will spout whatever opinions that are popular and back them up with whatever points that are also the most popular at the moment. I believe we're yet to see a game with LGBTBBQ character that does everything well, but there always will be people who will say that game we're yet to see is shit simply because it has LGBTBBQ character. Because it's now popular to throw rocks at game with such characters. Oh, and for non-anonymous forums: if you post something popular and likeable for people at such forums, you're likely to get "+1"'d up to the point what you say would equivalent to the world of God or something, simply because you have the most "+1"'s and barely scratch what other doods and gals would like to say. Vice versa variant: argue with people who have the most "+1"'s and you're likely to get "-1"'d to the point noone ever get you seriously and users will "-1" you simply because it's you, the user with the most "-1"'s.
I have no idea what I'm posting right now
Also checking these digits

You gotta take the good with the bad, just call out cancer for what it is in 1 post, give them one chance to redeem themselves and show they aren't a shill or a troll, and if they don't, you filter and ignore them.

Stop taking shitposts so personally. Just filter them if they bother you so much, that's what the function is there for. At the end of the day, you're just talking with strangers on the internet. The majority are bound to be assholes. You either let their shit roll off you or you get out like a baby bitch.
I hope you stay, user. Maybe we'll play videogames together some day.

GTFO Sarcuck

...

You, sir, an example of what I pointed out in my post. You see things that aren't even there and then make false assumptions. There may be miscommunication on my end, but still, nowhere in my post I mentioned any political crap. ">>>Holla Forums" and "go2reddit" are just examples that I've seen the most. I just mentioned people doing outright stupid assumptions based on unexplainable ridiculous logic. Point me, please,
>pseudo-intellectual language
and I'll try to rewrite it in more simple way, maybe with more rude words. I agree that sometimes my thoughts can go wild, but I have no idea if your possible inability to grasp someone else's pointp properly is a problem instead.

Frogger wasn't bloated with cutscenes and scripted sequences. Frogger took more skill.

Reminder that Kira did nothing wrong

People with shit taste keep fucking up discussion. With those faggots getting as much mileage as possible with the whole "Everything is Subjective" bullshit, everyone is too busy accusing each other that their taste is the one that is actually shit.
