The first online community to use the term "incel" was started in 1993 when a Canadian university student known only by her first name, Alana, created a website in order to discuss her sexual inactivity with others.

Wow, the incels are right, women really are to blame for everything.

Where is that super homophobic pic of them comparing Capcom Dante to Brokeback Mountain (Both of which are much better designs than bro Dante, but whatever) that was used at an actual proffesional conference with grown ass people in attendance and not a high school presentation from 2004?

Edit:

DmC is pretty bad compared to other games in its genre, it only comes off well compared to literally broken shit like DMC2 and the god of war games. And i'd still put all three god of wars over the original version of DmC.

Color coded enemies and barely interactive crap like the barbas fight

I remember enjoying D4C.

Friends have been trying to get me to play it, even on some "this is NT's best game so even if you hated the rest you'd like this" shit. So I'd like to know what you thought was so bad about it? Most of my aversion is my dislike of NT's games and no real interest in mostly narrative games with shit gameplay (which I assumed it was)

1. The enemies are generic crap. Nothing cool like immaterial enemies, enemies that move in formation, etc. I just remember goons with weapons, a leaping beast, and a wheel enemy that rolls at you. Compounding that the enemies are uninteresting to fight, half of your weapons are red and half are blue, and you can only harm enemies that match the color you are using, even if it makes the game a lot worse. In the original version of the game this was devastating as whenever dante even grazed an enemy of the wrong color he would get put into a CLANG recoil animation, like you hit a wall in Zelda. In the revision this was changed to your weapons doing paper mache damage, which is a thousand times better.

2. Only one solid boss - the final one. Every single other boss is a giant monster that does the good old "swing three times or summon a wave of goons and then I bend over and expose my ass for a QTE/button mashing". Not engaging back and forths like you want from an action game boss.

3. Any and all supposed benefits from switching to ninja theory are null. The story is embarrassing, and the """"platforming"""" is so minimal that it isnt even used in combat to any discernable degree.

Soundtrack is good though.

I remember when NT were pretty universally disliked on forums and shit, only for them to suddenly get all sorts of fanboys pulling for them when DmC was announced. I'm still shocked anyone enjoys their games tbh.

xbots loved them when they made kung fu chaos, because OG xbots had so few games anyway
Sonybots loved them when they made heavenly sword, for mostly identical reasons
enslaved was a huge
DMC was loved by - basically - graphics whores who had never played a DmC game
Hellblade was loved by the kind of people who want to call games art but don't understand art and who think a clumsy as fuck treatment of mental illness is somehow 'worthy' for 'tackling difficult subjects' despite being like, half a fucking decade after Alice: madness returns, and playing like shit compared to that and generally being way more hamfisted.
Also tools like Jim Sterling who think indie games should somehow magically have AAA production values, and that because it broke even means that 'proves' its achievable, when it obviously fucking isn't.
xbots love them again, for exactly the same reason as kung fu chaos and heavenly sword; because they can stick it in their shitty "WOWOWOW THIS UPCOMING LINEUP OF THINGS I SAW A SIZZLE TRAILER AND A LOGO FOR IS AMAAAAAAYYYYYYZING!" lists

Yeah, I'd describe NT as a good game maker. Not game of the years. The critics have merit for pointing out the lackluster stuff. I genuinely feel they just don't have the manpower, time or resources to craft it beyond what we get.

There's not even any clear sense of what the gameplay is supposed to look like yet. I don't know man, just because it's pretty doesn't make it fun.

[VomKriege]

As far as I understand NT maybe didn't deserve all the vitriol when they really were a contractor for Capcom and a lot of the "design flaws", "disrespectful characterization" and the "Westernisation" were not a bug but a feature demanded, even directly supervised, by Capcom itself. The whole didn't gel too well and plenty of the criticism is warranted (though I understand the revised DmC version on PC made it a lot closer in gameplay standards to the rest of the series) but there was a lot of dramatic hyperbole surrounding it.

[Anti-Monitor]

What's the reasoning for calling developers "lazy" being worth a ban, but calling them "nazi" being okay?

[Lonewulfeus]

It’s classic othering.  If you’re perceived as being on their team you’re protected if not, the rules don’t apply.

Capcom did indeed ask for a heavier departure, but NT's founder and head Tameem was not helping matters by going out of his way to shit on fans AND the old games 

Also, the revised version, the DE, is still not up on PC because it mostly cribs from fanmade mods without giving them credit

DmC is pretty much a shitshow all around. I'm still surprised and glad DMC5 exists at all.

I'm deferring to player's opinion. I must have mixed things up, I thought the revised edition was only on PC but that's the other way around.

This guy is doing it wrong. You’re supposed to go “isn’t crowbcat racist? ” then someone else can go “yep, he sure is” and then you go “okay, that’s what I thought”.

Now that’s how you threadshit.

[EchoRin]

The lazy devs talk is kind of a ", c'mon man" type of banning. Goes back to even GAF where it was seen as a cheap sort of way of saying "I don't like thing", but with most dev cycles not being anything close to a picnic it became frowned upon and eventually a bannable offense.

Calling someone a Nazi. I guess that depends on context.

Just thought I'd share my awkward, funny story with my favorite online community

...

Go straight to HR and get it on record.

[nachobro]

I honestly don't get the hubbub around calling a development decision lazy. Yeah some idiot could be like "the devs are lazy" without any real argument but pretending lazy decisions can't be made when developing a game is acting deaf, dumb and blind.

Too bad we don't have any devs here who could shed light on this matter, we only have stufte.

i just assumed its because they wanted to be a developer safe space and get them all posting there like gaf had for a bit without realizing forums are a dying (dead, really) trend

[nachobro]

yeah the obsession over it there is something else. especially weird how they claim its the reason trump got elected but also whiny, impotent babies that have no power over anything. how can it be both at once? (especially cause i don't think it exists anymore?)

[nachobro]

also austin walker got canned, waypoint on its last legs at this point?

[EchoRin]

I think the "devs r lzy" comment became a no no is mostly because it was typically used in a rant type of way.

Not to say that GreatSage is wrong about his feelings on Hellblade in terms of the mental stuff (I have not played the game. I presume you did), but I looked at the games wikipedia and it seems like the devs really went all out in terms of figuring out how to properly present psychosis. Working with proffessors in the field. Collaborating with people who suffer from the types of mental ilnesses the game presents the main character with. Maybe the story is hamfisted as you said, but it doesn't appear like they half assed (LAZY GAME DEV RHETORIC!!!) that part of their research or implementation.

[BisMarckie]

Could not have happened to a better person.

I am pretty sure he’ll become a full time patreon grifter now.

[VomKriege]

Because attacking and "vilifying" the press is what Trump and the far right does.
I really think it just goes that far.

To be fair I do think that the long disdain for the videogame press was a fertile soil for Gamergate. For years a lot of people used interchangeably "a bunch of incompetent, sycophant elevated fanboys mostly acting as glorified catalogs" and "BOUGHT AND PAID FOR BY THE GLOBALISTS PUBLISHERS" which is more incendiary and was, for some, easily mutated into buying hook, line and sinker that some indie dev fucking some writer was a MASSIVE SCANDAL proving that those incestuous elites are in a cabal to transform the proud hardcore gamers into sissy giant dad SJWs. It's undeniable that this is the classic far right narrative on "media" or "Hollywood" being reskinned for videogames.

Not that it warrants the endless shielding from criticism but to be honest gaming forums probably needed to mute the usual console war rhetoric a notch.

comic book films are the lowest on the totem pole of things that have no impact on me beyond being mildly entertained for a couple of hours, it's hilarious how these dickearlobes have constructed their identity around these. But hey I shouldn't speak too loud, I know a bunch of people who's identity is fast food based 

Half of the people on REEEEsetera define their personalities by who they stick their dick into (or dream about sticking their dick into while sitting in a car park in a child care facility or their parents' basement).
