Wrestling games have a total lack of actual gameplay. It’s all as arbitrary and staged as actual wrestling. I have no idea why these ‘games’ are so popular. I’d rather watch paint dry.
@ItsAlwaysSunnyyy RE5 is excellent imo. It’s not so much horror (aside from excellent DLC) but it’s good solid fun and had many different collectables to find for the completionists!! It also has loads of fun locations to visit.
I still can’t get behind RE6 though. I’ve played it through multiple times with the thinking “maybe it wasn’t so bad, maybe I was in a bad mood, etc” But no. It’s just not fun.
Not too long ago, Capcom patched in Raytracing and other graphic stuff for RE2 Remake and RE3 Remake. Then they rolled back the patch for some reason. Anyone remember this??
I love Capcom and Resident Evil but these recent native ports seem kinda pointless and a bit expensive. The ported versions RE4,5,6 Look and play great. The visual upgrades with these games will be negligible. Same with RE7.
Can anyone explain the need for these??? I’m an RE mega fan and can see nothing useful…
Will 120fps benefit RE5?
@WolfyTn the trickle-down effect of toxic masculinity and heterosexual power fantasies is a very real social issue and your comment just proves that a good portion of society have zero understanding of the ramifications of these issues and what they mean for broader society. You just proved my point by trotting out cliched buzzwords and fragile pejoratives.
@WolfyTn I don’t hate anyone. Not at all. The fact that you think my comment boils down to ‘Man Bad’ says more about your simplistic understanding of gender and sexuality than anything else. Much like your utterly fragile use of ‘woke’ as some kind of pejorative. Lol.
As for your cringeworthy argument that popular games are somehow immune to criticism on the basis that they sell units - that is a laughable and embarrassing rationale at best.
If you love this kind of thing then more power to you, but I’ve always hated these games. The gunplay and combat improved over the years but remained janky as hell and driving around isn’t much better. The rest of the package has always been a toxic male power-fantasy filled to the brim with the kind of aggressive and twisted heterosexuality that leaves a bad taste in the mouth of many. Aren’t we past this? Dated and boring at best and horribly regressive at worse. Gross. 🤢
@The_Decline_99 More power to ya! My favourite Dark Souls game by some margin is the much maligned Dark Souls 2. We don’t all have to engage in group-think ☺️
I don’t see the point of these native ports. We are talking about minor graphical improvements at best. No one in their right mind would dish out the cash for these when the PS4 versions run fine and look pretty much as good as they are going to look.
Good. The correct move. Rapists and abusers don’t deserve any air time. Insufferable neck beards will still bleat about ‘reasonable doubt’ but at least Conor’s visibility and wallet takes a hit.
Platinums and trophies should be hard but not completely banal like story trophies or stuff that’s grindy to the point of boredom. Let’s get creative with trophies.
When are we gonna see the death of these loot box and micro transaction laden yearly bore-fests which completely copy the content of prior entries? Embarrassing…..
Yet the same boring gamers lap them up again and again….
Review bombers are among the most pathetic losers online. Neckbeards who have no social lives, fighting wars that don’t exist outside their sad microcosm..
I never understood the stilted and choppy combat of these games. It’s almost like the cringeworthy gimmick fatalities are the only thing they have going for them….
People who do this kind of thing are pathetic little infants who throw tantrums for fun. Willing to bet a high number of neckbeards are responsible because they are mad that no one will ever touch them..
I couldn’t get through GOT. Not having a lock-on for combat and the scissors-paper-rock style system for boss fights was really dull and lacked depth. However it was beautiful to look at and had amazing load times. It just didn’t gel with me as a whole.
Days Gone was a far better game than the reviews indicated. Very fun - just a bit slow to get going.
The only real issue I had with it was the boring one-note lead character - another example of the beige tough guy alpha male archetype who can’t show any emotions except anger and looks like he’s pushing out a painful turd when any other emotion pops up.
There was exactly no progression or growth with the character. Nauseating.
Jesus Christ…. It’s a rough estimate. The gaming space is still dominated by men 25-40. Do you actually have a retort for anything else I said or are you just going to fixate on a hyperbolic statistical statement? Or are you one of the sad neckbeards that defends sexual infantilisation and other gross s***.
@Yagami you didn’t even read my post. I said it’s disgusting when infantilisation porn which is largely Japanese intersects with and is normalised in mods. I never said there is anything wrong with porn or that is leads to anything bad. Don’t put words in my mouth. You didn’t read or comprehend my post in any way shape of form.
@Yagami There is nothing wrong with adult content in games. What I’m trying to explain is how a lot of the modding going on treads a very thin line between standard content and content that intersects with very questionable and illegal stuff. It is all historically present in Japanese porn and neckbeards defend it as OK because it’s pixels and not real women. And it’s disgusting.
@LifeGirl Give me a break. The gaming space is still dominated by men. If you bothered to explore the modding spaces on Japanese games there is a constant omnipresent line between adult content and things which are acceptable in Japanese pornography. Stuff which is absolutely about infantilisation of women or straight up CP. Have you ever been to Japan? It might open your eyes. To refuse to see the intersectionality is ignorant.
@LifeGirl Let’s not pretend it’s not 99% men making and consuming these mods. There’s less cringe ways to see naked people. Porn for instance. Or leaving the house and meeting people. Also let’s not pretend that it’s all heavily tied into CP or Japan-centric lolly territory. Ashley RE mods for instance. Putting the cringe aside it’s very often about infantilising girls and women and that is very problematic.
