gaming is in a weird place

[winb83]

What makes money in gaming is usually the exact opposite of what “gamers” on these forums say they want.

All the games listed in the OP will do fine financially, and we will get more of shyt just like that

Except a game like Spiderman drops and sells like crazy. A game some on these forums criticized and called a interactive movie. Like God of War before it which also sold well. It's not that single player games don't sell its that they don't usually have that microtransaction lootbox style recurring revenue publishers want.

“Play” movies brehs

I don’t mean in the cinematic sense but the narrative sense

I should’ve said control your own narrative but tomatoes n apples

Spider-Man and GOW are just as artistically shallow(casual) as the games in the op. The same people buying GOW are buying COD.

You stans just tell yourself it’s different to make yourselves feel better

A game like COD or Fallout will have players and developer support for years to come. It makes sense they have future monetization strategies.

Single player games have their money grabbing ways as well.

Nah, what you said was what you ment.

Gaming is about GAMEPLAY.

The games people remember and will still be playing years, even decades from now are games where GAMEPLAY is king.

If servers are still up, people will still be playing fortnight years from now. People are already done with Spider-Man and moving on.

Good thing I don't play first person shooters like that

Fallout 76 would have been fine as a 2-4 player co op

No crash as long as Nintendo is around to capture the affordable and different market segment that just focuses on fun and simple gameplay

These bro nerd fests like call of duty fortnite etc will probably see a dip though and hopefully we cycle back to original experiences

 

[Killer Instinct]

Battlefield 5, EA basically just thinking it can dictate how it’s customers act and then become a parent n shyt telling them what’s right

fukk those alt-reich dorks masking their hatred of miniorties and women under the guise of "historical accuracy." They could drink bleach tonight and the world would be a slightly better place in the morning.

 

[MaccabeanRebel]

The only thing EA did wrong was sell an incomplete game at launch and try to stretch out content because there is no season pass. People mad about women being in games are just neck beards who wanna be fake mad.

The blackout tiers thing isnt really an issue either. Who cares about skins in a first person shooter. Like c'mon breh

To be fair, he had everyone done with a fukking demo. PT made Capcom steal the idea, and everyone else start developing actual horror games. He set a paradigm shift....so even when he delivers a fukking demo.....the gaming industry is reeled with a left hook.

We’re just going through trends. With all the bad, we got gems. The industry is still trying to find itself between the loot boxes and games as a service. Consumers are speaking up so publishers are doing their best Juelz impression to investors. It sucks but it’s business.

EA can suck my whole dikk for ME Andromeda though.

It's not the games its these nerdy ass youtubers who complain and cry then they make everyone else hate the games..

You serious?

 

[Easy-E]

The way games like NBA2K gouging you for a good time spells to end of gaming for me.

There's an expectation to drop $100 for every game.

It's not the games its these nerdy ass youtubers who complain and cry then they make everyone else hate the games..

I'll never understand the "they hating because it's cool" logic.

Fallout 76 was a bad idea since jump--for example.

These companies are making their games worst to incentivize micro-transactions.

What's the big mystery as to why people get turnt? Granted, they go overboard.

Bethesda got Lazy ASF with that Fallout 76 shyt...

Rockstar came out the gate with a literal masterpiece with Red Dead Redemption 2...:strange2:
