Yet another GAF thread - I still haven't got over it :( (No spergfits allowed)

[Shadow Mod]

So it took some mod forever to ban TripleU's ass while he was shitting away in the Jason Collin's thread. I thought Lore wanted good discussions? It starts with excising dumbfucks like that before they get to shit up a conversation for pages upon pages.

It's funny to think how different those threads would be if Fuse was a Sony exclusive IP's.

you would still have people (rightfully) shitting on the art style change but yea you would also have defenders.

If it was exclusive and no artstyle change then it would be fucking insufferable due to them

Depends on what you mean by "good discussions."  If you mean clickbait, then sure.  If you mean content, then hell no, GAF has already crossed the Rubicon into 4chan/Reddit levels of discourse and there's no turning back without mass bannings.

Hey now there is good discussion on 4chan every now and then. There's one going on it /v/ this moment about games that aren't very popular.

the GT documentary will be called "A Perfect Little World" 

if it's anything less than perfect and wholly positive, gaf will go apeshit (and it sounds like it might have an escapism theme.)  either that or literally everybody on the site will play it off like "hey it's not me they're talking about"

How the fuck do you even make a GAF documentary? It'd all be pictures and gifs and actual interviews with like 2 or 3 people.

Evilore: "So I bought it and then became rich."

Dyack: "Evilore is a rich prick."

Hiresdes: "Why does everything bad happen to me?"

It's funny to think how different those threads would be if Fuse was a Sony exclusive IP's.

Extremely different it's why when a dev is first or second party. The majority of fanboys toe the company line. I would love to read pre Sony sugar daddying Quantic Dream threads and see the difference. Sony fanboys are all over 'Beyond' as if it was the second coming. And you can bet if it was a third party game, interest would be lower. It's like people who are suddenly excited by Jonathon Blows new game which while not an exclusive 'exclusive' comes with enough "fuck you" MS bile from Blow to get the Sonyboys hard and ready to support.

It's why when rumors were posted this week about Respawns game being potentially 'exclusive' to the new Xbox suddenly a lot of well know Sony fanbots were suddenly "not intrested" in the game anyway as sci-fi shooters are "boring" and yet many of these same guys were all over Killzone 4. Watch the reverses if the rumour proves to be bullshit.

I'm going to be very interested to see what happens to Bungie now they're third party. I don't think they'll enjoy the same popularity they did doing Halo especially if Destiny doesn't catch imaginations. I've already seen a lot of MS fanboys shit talking them.

I also think a lot of people are expecting a very different game than what Bungie is making.

I was never big on Rare in the N64 era but there was a definite drop in quality between Nintendo-era Rare and MS-era Rare (though I enjoyed Viva Pinata back when I first got my 360).

[Joe Molotov]

I think most Nintendo fans hated Star Fox  Adventures too, although there are some people who will try to defend that turd sandwich.

Pretty much. There's shit posts on all sides of the issue, I have no interest in even trying to participate in that conversation. There's some good peeps on GAF's but hot-button issue topics tend to be oversaturated with thoughtless shit posting and general ignorance. Why even bother, especially when the same topic will repeat in a matter of days.

[Don Flamenco]

yeah, somehow, these people got the idea that whatever they think/feel/say is perfectly valid to add to the discussion, when the broader topics of gender relations, sexism, objectification, sexuality, advertising/publicity using people as objects to market with, etc. are not intuitive at all.    it's a good thing this whole thing is self-contained on the internet.

It's not even close to anything from Ocarina through Twilight Princess.

I don't believe any of the 3D Zeldas are all that spectacular. I won't deny that OoT was very influential, but on its own it isn't that great. Everything after just repeated a lot of formulas from it. I'm especially not a fan of Aonuma's dungeon-puzzle fascination, it's always been a little too tedious compared to the more combat-focused 2D games. SFA shares that fascination with tedious task-completion over deep/challenging gameplay.

Yup, you did. If anything, I'm hoping the controversy leads to a few extra sales for Atlus/Vanillaware.

[brob]

Sad thing is Vanillaware doesn't have anything going for it outside of their art. They're like the Japanese WayForward. It's not like there is some brilliant game there hiding behind this woman's tits.

Still makes him look like an idiot. For someone who's worked at websites for so long you'd think he'd have grown a thicker skin by now. As soon as they don't get unanimous praise "the internet" hates him and what he does. You can't do right by or please everyone. How long does that take to sink in?
