/v/ - Video Games

So what are we supposed to discuss here?

>>14754637

Video games.

>This is it, the Battle Royale genre is dying

Pretty sure this tie-in will just get more normalfags playing fortnite

It is normal that I have no idea what Fortnite is ?

>>14754647

It's a limited time thing. They'll show up for a few days because it's a F2P game and not spend any money then it will die. On the one hand this is a good thing but on the other I fear whatever genre becomes the next FotM.

It's a normalfag game. Why are you surprised it's introducing normalfag cancer? Breaking fucking news AAA games are cancer more updates in the next low effort thread.

>>14754650

>They'll show up for a few days because it's a F2P game and not spend any money then it will die

I'm sure they'll keep a few players long enough for them to whale out at least once. To my understanding fortnite players are so smoothbrained that they frown on other players who haven't purchased skins

>>14754649

Maybe if you've been living under a rock.

Oh wow, a game I don't play nor care about is doing a crossover with a movie/comic series I have not watched/read. Thank you ohpee, I needed to know about this!

>>14754649

You'd have to have avoided all forms of vidya discussion including /v/ for months so no.

>>14754656

What's the minimum number of whales to even pay server costs though?

>normalfag shit x normalfag shit

Literally who cares?

>>14754665

>What's the minimum number of whales to even pay server costs though?

I wouldn't know, but the games been kicking away and even your grandmum has probably heard of it by now so they got enough whales to go for awhile

>>14754671

I guess once you've already paid off development costs you just cut support once the whales dry up anyway.

>>14754633

literally who in literally what

>>14754633

PlayerUnknown on sudoku watch.

>>14754688

>not knowing who Thanos is

I know he's been ruined by capeshit but that's no excuse.

>>14754692

Isn't PUBG dead anyway?

>>14754749

dunno about dead but fortnite fucking beat the bajezus out of it by being F2P and being more functional our of the box while PUBG just got more and more chinese hackers flooding the servers

>>14754752

>more and more chinese hackers flooding the servers

They didn't actually follow through on region locking?

>>14754770

I enjoyed Thor Ragnarok, if we're going to talk about MCU stuff, but otherwise most stuff i've seen from it hasn't been that great.

>>14754633

It looks like a children's cereal box.

>>14754749

After the chinks were let loose in North American servers, people dropped the game. It didn't help that the dev team essentially called people racist for not accepting the gook community and their shit ping. I don't know if they added region locking or not, but they were clearly too late if they did.

>>14754759

I can't wait for the overhyped 2023 Avengers movie where Ant Man pulls an infinity stone out of Thanos' lower intestine.

>>14754633

That actually sounds kinda fun.

>>14754770

You have shit taste then, because Marvel garbage is vomit inducing.

Perfectly fine threads get bump locked for no reason but this shit will stay up for a week straight.

>>14754788

Thano's intestines are probably strong enough to crush diamonds, so he'd mostly likely be smashed inside them as he expands.

This sounds fucking cool. Jesus Christ. I hate Battle Royal but I would play this.

>>14754788

>Hitler dubs

>Deviantart fetish

Like pedantry.

>>14754633

> This is it, the Battle Royale genre is dying. Why else pull such a shit-tier publicity stunt?

No it isn't. They added it because Infinity War is an extremely popular with normalfags. Who plays BR games? Normalfags.

>>14754788

Good old arseplomancer method

>>14754770

Marvel is pure shit anon. Especially their movies.

>>14754633

Hopefully Thanos erases Fortnite.

>>14754649

I didn't care about Fortnite at all, in fact the only time it even sparked conversation for me and other peers atleast was when Playerunknown attempted to sue it because he thought it was "Ripping off his idea".

It's funny he wanted to try and run the game to the ground by lawsuit so it could never be spoken of again, when all he actually accomplished was give it more popularity and make himself look like more of a sellout than he already is.

And now he's selling his body to the Chinese as we speak.

>>14754633

Adding a turd into a mountain of shit makes no real difference. BR games are for slavs and Brazilians

>>14754650

Stop pretending, shill

>>14754663

He's just doing what he's paid to do

>>14754793

Fuck! Drill hairs is a weakness! Also who would be the tsundere out of the group?

>>14754633

if you have snapchat and watch IGN you'd have seen this coming. Fortnite and Marvel movies are the only things they have written about for the last two months.

>>14754633

> Why else pull such a shit-tier publicity stunt?

You need to learn the difference between "A publicity stunt I think is stupid" and "A publicity stunt that will make millions off of normalfags" Just because you don't like it doesn't means it's a shit marketing decision.

>>14754650

if its limited time why would they show and not spend anything for a skin that costs money? They'll show up and buy the skin then

>>14755985

okay so i did some googling. The average skin costs 1,500-2,000 V-bucks. the V-bucks pricing is as follows

1,000 V-bucks: $9.99 USD

2,500 V-bucks (+300 Bonus): $24.99 USD

6,000 V-bucks (+1,500 Bonus): $59.99 USD

10,000 V-bucks (+3,500 Bonus): $99.9 USD

I do not know if you can get currency through gameplay since i don't play the game and it appears you can't spend an exact amount of real money to get say, 1 skin, you gotta buy v-buck packs. so getting one skin, even the cheapest ones at 800 v-bucks would cost you 10 real dollars and leave leftover game currency you can't get anything else with. It's a jewish as fuck method and lots of other games use it

>>14755877

they plugged it on silicon valley, i imagine that cost a pretty penny

>>14756021

http://archive.is/gwLDJ

Apparently you can do daily quests to get some small amount of v-bucks so it kinda makes sense why people would call someone a "noob" if he still uses the default skin, however there was a video from 28 October, last year, talking about how daily quests weren't implemented yet, and at that point you had to buy them, so the quests thing is a more recent thing.

>>14756468

Hey look it's that e-celeb who constantly references to imageboards and is actively contributing to the massive waves of normalniggers flooding into here. You likely being one of them

>>14754770

9 year olds are bullying other 9 year olds in school for playing and watching the newest garbage that comes out, that's how shitty things are, yet you're telling me you "enjoy" modern movies?

Impossible.

>>14754633

>Marvel

>Battle Royal Game.

Double Cancer.

>>14756468

H-haha please tell me that clip at the end is satire.

>>14754770

I'm incapable of caring about such nonsense, especially since you need to watch 20 fucking movies to have any idea what's going on.

I've heard most of the characters die in the new one. Am I seriously supposed to be shocked? Cry? I mean, they're going to bring them back in five years or less when it's time to milk more fucking money. I frankly don't get how anyone could miss that.

>>14755985

The skins that aren't just recolors or a default model with a hat are 20 dollarydoos. No way of earning those through gameplay. Really, you can't earn any actual character skin without dropping 10$ for a "Battle pass" first.

>>14756179

those daily quests are only a thing if you buy the shitty 40 dollar pve game epic abandoned

>>14756468

wtf I love marvel now

>>14754633

It's a shit genre but holy fuck, PUBG needs to get Batman or someshit, like that ASSFAGGOTS from Worse Korea who got him in the game.

>>14756566

Pewdiepie is constantly in persona and satire, but he is really right-wing compared to most big youtubers. He has done book reviews on 1984 and 12 rules of life by JBP and insults people for niggers on stream. On top of that, he definitely browses 4chan and I suspect him from browsing 8chan as well. In other news: Pewdiepie proposed to his girlfriend Marzia, so absolutely good for him. They seem like a very cute couple.

>>14757269

PUBG needs Mao Zedong or some shit, seeing the amount of Red Chinese Commies who play that damn game.

>>14754633

>This is it, the Battle Royale genre is dying

You're delusional.

>>14756550

I find that hard to believe.

>>14757279

>Pewdiepie proposed to his girlfriend Marzia, so absolutely good for him. They seem like a very cute couple.

Except for the part where she wasn't particularly excited or happy in the least bit. I'm worried for the man, he's setting himself up to be streamer Brendan.

>>14757320

But it is absolute shit.

>>14757414

This but unironically.

Fortnite, the original PvE game, can last that long or longer once the BR kids have fucked off.

>>14757433

Isn't the 'main' due to go F2P some time this year?

I'm kinda interested if they'll cross over some of their BR stuff with the 'main' game, skins and such to encourage people to play both modes.

>>14757459

Radical Heights has zero redeeming factor. Why did Cliffy make this game?

> 80s aesthetic ends at its characters and announcer

>can't get into cars but BMX ARE COOL AMIRITE

>the play area is just empty (a whole suburb of fucking nothing)

>many houses with no furniture or items

>cash registers you can break for cash so you can use them at vending machines to buy weapons

>Vending machines that makes loud TV ad noises after you buy things from it

>no music

if they really wanted to make it look 80s, they should just copy Vice City.

>>14754633

>the Battle Royale genre is dying.

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha ha. I wish I was laughing because it was true and not because you're so absolutely clueless. They're doing it because they can. They're doing it because they're big enough to get noticed by the massive conglomerate that are superhero movies. Don't fool yourself, OP, It hasn't even peaked yet.

>>14757474

I mean, they went for the parody 80's aesthetic, but didn't go far enough with it to achieve full Blood Dragon and make it actually fun. But hey, Cucky B never goes all the way.

>>14757483

also from gameplay vids

>player just falls from the sky

>no parachute or control

>tumbles when hitting the ground like he just tripped

how lazy is that?

>>14756776

was she still into you after you sperged out?

>>14757474

They didn't even try to go for a Smash TV/The Running Man style "trapped in death labyrinth with various challenges" with guns gameshow aesthetic which would have made them stand out against the other BR games.

I still wonder how would that The Running Man: Home Version (a board game?) play like?

>>14757442

They've been doing that. Fuck BR though, seriously, and fuck its little brat players with a chainsaw.

THANOS DID NOTHING WRONG

>>14757715

Because shooters are staple videogame. Other games and genres come and go but shooters always are. Always. BR brought new fresh gameplay experience into shooters scene. Also this means that BR craze will eventually dry out and its popularity will level out with other shooters.

>>14757491

In another BR, Islands of Nyne players just falls from the sky too but he lands with solid satisfying "thump" that leaves no doubts that player actually fell from the sky. RH is literally definition of bad clone, they stole everything and could even copy anything right.

>>14757483

>Cucky B never goes all the way.

It's like being a cuck is entrenched deep into his essence.

>>14757925

>the title is on the top.

Oh never mind, I am retarded

>This is it, the Battle Royale genre is dying

I wish it were so… Such cancer needs to die and soon. But this just seems like typical normalfag pandering tactics to rev up sales.

The fact normalfags see this as quality content is so alien to me. I may be just that unhinged from the generic super casual crowd to see this as pure bullshit but then again it doesn't take much to be disassociated with this sort of shit.

>>14758001

the only reason anyone who isn't one of those soyboys sees a capeshit flick is someone with the vain hope it won't be ass.

>>14754633

>Why else pull such a shit-tier publicity stunt?

JEWS YOU FUCKING LUNATIC. IT'S ALWAYS THE FUCKING JEWS. WHO DESTROYED THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY? JEWS. WHO DESTROYED ALL OTHER MEDIA? JEWS. WHO OPERATES THEM ALL AT A LOSS BECAUSE CONTROLLING ALL THOUGHT AND DISCOURSE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN MAKING A PROFIT? JEWS. JEWS. JEWS. A THOUSAND FUCKING TIMES JEWS.

>>14758001

I thought those were the ones that actually cared about the movies because it pandered to their SJW politcs.

Marvel has become the ultimate normalfag thing now. Especially the movies, you don't even have to have read a single comic to call yourself a 'marvel' fan, it's primarily for normalfags now

>>14754741

This thread is gay cancer, but you're retarded go back to >>>/cuckchan/ faggot

>>14758023

You're not wrong. But I think you're sort of preaching to the choir here. We all know the nose are our foe.

>>14758031

Not if we still get retarded OPs asking retarded questions that prove they're bluepilled leftists, it isn't.

>>14754650

>normalfags won't buy shit for a f2p game

You're naive. Even if they don't, kids will.

>>14754650

>They'll show up for a few days because it's a F2P game and not spend any money then it will die.

Have you fucking seen LoL? The game thrives because of people spending money on an otherwise F2P game.

>>14758663

>1000 hours to grind stuff

>F2P

Such false advertising should be banned.

>>14758067

I'm sure OP knows at the back of his mind the tribe is to blame. Perhaps he just wants us to engage in discourse over it, no matter how many times it has been discussed. Why? Could be for a number of reasons. Maybe he doesnt want to believe Jews are to blame for so much. Maybe he wants those uninformed to thus become informed, or maybe he is using the thread as a catalyst for digging to occur. Digging leading to more answers.

>>14758054

Should probably take tf2 out of that picture.

>>14758841

It's in there on both sides, I think it shows the point well.

>>14754633

>This is it, the Battle Royale genre is dying. Why else pull such a shit-tier publicity stunt?

nigger what

Fortnite is probably the single most popular game in the world at the moment. This was another advertisement for the movie since it had an absurd marketing budget.

>>14758859

Oh, didn't notice

>>14758054

>>14757925

Disney knows how to milk retards out of their money. They present Thanos with all the the good points (supremacist and nationalist) while trying to portray him as the bad guy. They get money from normalfags from both sides.

It does not change the fact that anything and anyone involved with Disney is a marxist lapdog.

who cares game and genre were shit already, kys OP

Thanos is a purple nationalist, not a white one.

>>14754770

>medic… I do not feel well

>>14758016

Capeshit are the only movies now.

>>14759831

>supremacist

>Thanos

Did we watch the same movie? Thanos's lieutenants were of different races and Thanos himself was willing to allow other alien races join him as long as they bent the knee. His "daughters" are also from different races as well. He stated his end game goal too, offing half the universes populace regardless of race or social standing so that the other half doesn't run out of resources and die cruelly. He was going to quit and live peacefully afterwards. So although his method was fucked up he was doing it as a mercy for both the ones chosen to live and those chosen to die.

>Nationalist

Can't be a nationalist if you have no nation or populated home planet for that matter.

>>14754741

then go ahead and create your own board, this is 8chan, no one is stopping you

>AAA is so creatively bankrupt they act like Juggernaut mode is a new invention

>>14763542

He couldn't do that because then the movie wouldn't have a villain.

>>14761649

>has a glove with the (((six fragments of god))) embedded in it which gives infinite power

>can snap his fingers to delete half of the universe

>to save the other half from starvation

>can't snap his fingers to just create the resources everyone needs to survive

Really makes you think.

>>14763702

> 50% of everyone has to die in order for overconsumption not to kill off everyone would you as an omnipotent being select as survivors the one half of all populations most likely/willing to find sustainable solutions going forward?

I would exterminate all the jews (and space jew equivalents) and niggers (and space nigger equivalents), and if that didn't solve the problem I'd continue with the space abbos and space indios.

>>14763816

I guess that it could be argued that Thanos' plan was made purposefully made that way in order to paint him as a more realistic fanatic.

It's still cartoony and dumb, but that's all that'll be left because a logical Thanos would simply make it so that no civilization could collapse because of overpopulation.

>the genre is dying

>because they're making a fuckton of money off of a promotion with disney

retard

>>14765983

They could have made it into a commentary about nihilism and an obsession with death and the general lack of meaning we experience today. Instead they made it about population control, or something, even though he could have just materialized food or infrastructure or paradise planets.

>>14766012

>and the general lack of meaning we experience today.

Thats the sad thing about capeshit, outside Logan, it will never touch a subject this deep and make people uncomfortable outside the characters that dies. Even if the whole Thanos and Death thing could be explored.

>>14761649

I'm talking about how Disney DESCRIBES him. They are dumb enough to not even know what they are talking about their own product. and still, normalfags are even dumber to give money to Disney, instead of pirating everything.

>>14765986

The genre dies when creativity dies. No matter how many retards keep the corpse alive with their money.

>>14766446

then the genre was never alive.

>Attempts to appear so fucking hipster that they're 99% fedora, by decrying the most popular movie of the decade as "trash"

>Proceeds to debate the plot of the movie anyway

Never change, /v/, never change.

>>14754770

I'm glad I'll never be as fucking stupid as you

>thread derailed into avengers debating

>not liking a game with a ~1% chance of winning

I can't tell who the casual scrubs are anymore.

>>14766012

>even though he could have just materialized food or infrastructure or paradise planets.

This is post scarcity society. We live in scarcity society, going post scarity is how you build real Communism. Nihilism, an obsession with death and the general lack of meaning don't exist within real Communism.

>>14758054

Yeah, multiplayer games really are becoming less like freedom fuckarounds and more like digital cocaine with an illusion of the earlier.

But then again most campaigns on modern AAA single are also forgettable, not worthwhile of discussion, pisseasy or even chores to play, so i'm not surprised so many normalfags and companies have jumped into this cash cow.

>>14757474

It looks like a shitty mobile PUBG clone with a few le80smeme buildings and characters thrown around.

>>14767491

>freedom fuckarounds

Funny thing is this what PUBG and Fortnight are. Gameplay wise you can do anything you want, there is no much of such thing as griefing in them. Practically none if player is solo. It is not like in the other games: can't go there - ban! can't use this weapon - ban! can't do this - ban! can't do that - ban!

Makes you think about BR popularity…

>fortnite

this website is not suited for a 13 years old.

that being said, why do the masses jump from Overwatch to fortnite to whats yer face. pick one NON MEME GAME and be good at it.

example? CS, Team fortress

>>14766469

what is that middle cutie?

>>14768020

Yeah, i must give fortnite that tbh. I'd rather have normalfags give FFA games a chance instead of another fucking "blame-your-teammates e-sport simulator".

Plus since they don't seem to care about the long match times, lack of reversal opportunities or FFA play in those games, i think it shows that there could still be a market for RTS in the mainstream.

>>14768358

They play it because it's what everyone else is playing, and people start playing it because of the millions of dollars spent on marketing to make it the next big thing (half of a AAA game's budget goes to marketing alone). They don't care about being good at a game, they just want to play with their IRL friends on voice chat and buy hats.

>>14766448

Pretty much, in some cases such as this one.

Brands, names and products mean nothing. Only the fun and creativity are what make a good game.

>>14767227

The movie is shit.

>>14767489

Leftists are this retarded.

>>14767321

Your chances of winning are not 1% just because there are 100 players to start with. Your chances are 0% (if you're a n00b), staying around there across all skill levels until it suddenly spikes to about 20-50% if you're among the best in the game. Most matches there's going to be a handful of people or teams that are actually good enough to win, and it's pretty much a tossup between them depending largely on luck and circumstance. If you haven't put thousands of hours into it, your chances are nil unless you somehow end up in a match where everyone else is also shit. These games are basically games of dodgeball between 95 toddlers and 5 NFL quarterbacks.

>>14768358

Nice spacing fag.

>>14772142

I haven't seen the movie but I presume thanos has the infinity stones, so he's in essence immortal and omnipotent.

>>14772142

I haven't seen the movie but from what i learned they almost beat thanos but starlord fucked it all up by chimping out and thanos just leaves. It would be kinda ballsy if they just straight up lose and later avengers movies are about fixing earth that gets thrown into chaos from his plan but then ends up being better off because of it but i'm sure the sequel they'll macguffin or powercreep thanos to death and bring everyone back

>>14761229

Even as someone who really enjoys these movies, I really expect it to start to fizzle out after next year. Infinity War is the payoff to a decade of build up. After this who gives a fuck? The story's over.

>>14754769

if he could do that in reality I would accept him as my lord and saviour

>>14772142

Why didn't Thanos just create unlimited supplies for all the people so he would have no need to kill off 50% of everyone?

>>14754633

How is it dying by adding a skin of the currently most profitable movie?

Rather the opposite is happening, more people will play it becasuse of that skin and that it's f2p.

In fact, I wouldn't be suprised if the peak of the Fortnite-playerbase is still waiting to happen.

>>14781403

iirc the celestials could at least tie with him, so he's rather vastly powerful, far far above what any mortal can dream of except Ulysses, but not omnipotent. If we go by the comics, who knows how the MCU will handle it in the end.

>>14781541

I think it really depends who they get for the new Iron Man and Cap.

By now the actors for those roles are like Jackman is for Wolverine, as good as irreplacable. Yet I think both didn't want to continue after the next Avengers and some new actors will play them.

>>14785475

I mean there are restrictions on the infinity stones and certain beings who are above them, but I don't think any of said being are in the movie.

>>14754705

>not knowing who Thanos is

Sorry I don't read capeshit, let alone capeless capeshit.

>>14754633

>This is it

KILL YOURSELF

>>14785464

Depends how you define "peak". Right now Fortnite is right where Bitcoin was when it hit $20K: all the people who are going to be good or popular and making money on streams are established already, and basically nobody new has time to break into it and achieve the same. It's all downhill from here because it's reached maximum meme-status.

Trust me, it'll be dead this time next year, once the next "big thing" happens, possibly in a completely different genre.

>>14785475

I'd be extremely surprised if Iron Man doesn't get a Logan-tier sendoff in the Avengers 4; Cap is a tossup, but RDJ seems done with the role and they just can't replace him.

>>14787868

> possibly in a completely different genre.

if such genre would be invented. As time passes more things are invented and less are left not open in technologies pool it is more difficult to find something new.

"We will invent new genre! At least subgenre!" "Ops. There are no technologies left to research. This end game content sucks"

>>14768367

>>14788251

>>14754633

My excuse is "when something is free, you are the product"

FUCK OFF SHILL

>>14817493

Doesn't the Infinity Gauntlet do everything GER/Dragonballs/Chaos Emeralds/Triforce can do anyway? It seems pretty redundant.

I'm leaving Exodia out of that list because not even the Infinity Gauntlet can instantly win a Yu-Gi-Oh game, obviously.

Socializers are described by Bartle as "… interested in people, and what they have to say. … Inter-player relationships are important … seeing [people] grow as individuals, maturing over time. … The only ultimately fulfilling thing is … getting to know people, to understand them, and to form beautiful, lasting relationships."

This is closely related to the Keirseian description of Idealists, who are very aware of other people as part of their lifelong journey of self-discovery (Internal Change). In a way, the highly imaginative Idealists are always roleplaying; they are constantly creating images of themselves (or others) that they feel they should model through their own actions in order to produce the emotions in themselves that they want to feel.

==Guardian/Achiever

For the Guardian, the world is an insecure place, so it's necessary to protect oneself by accumulating material possessions… just in case. Thus, Guardians focus on earning money, on competing with others for resources perceived as scarce, on buying nice things and maintaining them, on forming stable and hierarchical group relationships, and generally on working hard to make their place in the world secure by locking down their connections to the world as possessions (External Structure).

Compare that to Bartle's description of Achievers: "Achievers regard points-gathering and rising in levels as their main goal" and "Achievers are proud of their formal status in the game's built-in level hierarchy, and of how short a time they took to reach it." Leveling up, leaderboards, and the accumulation of vast quantities of looted items are all behaviors that are driven more by a security-seeking motivation than by other motivations such as powerful sensations, understanding or self-growth.

This explains why the Guardian/Achiever is willing to persist in long stretches of "grind" that other kinds of gamers don't perceive as fun at all. To this gamer, rewards should be proportional to the amount of effort invested. When a game is designed around simple, well-defined tasks that enable the competitive accumulation of status tokens, that game is virtually guaranteed to attract security-seeking Guardian/Achievers.

Rational/Explorer

Rationals play in the same way that they do everything else – they find pleasure in discovering the organized structural patterns behind raw data (Internal Structure). These can be patterns in space (as in geography) or patterns in time (as in morphology). Or they can be cause-and-effect patterns (entailment) or relationship patterns (connections). Ultimately, it's all about achieving a strategic understanding of the system as a whole thing.

As Bartle describes Explorers: "The real fun comes only from discovery, and making the most complete set of maps in existence." Of the core motivations – sensation-seeking, security-seeking, knowledge-seeking, and identity-seeking – exploration as "discovery" is most closely aligned with the Rational's knowledge-seeking preference. For the Rational/Explorer, once the principle behind the data is revealed, that's enough – understanding is its own reward. These gamers can enjoy imparting knowledge to others, but no extrinsic reward for doing so is needed or expected.

Artisan/Killer

Finally, there are the Killers (or, as I prefer to call them, Manipulators). These can be difficult to understand in a gameplay context because most virtual worlds have encoded rules that marginalize their play style as "griefing" (i.e., upsetting other players) and try to prevent it. As Bartle puts it, "Killers get their kicks from imposing themselves on others." He also points out that Killers "wish only to demonstrate their superiority over fellow humans."

This desire for power over everything in their world is most closely echoed in the Keirseian description of Artisans, who (as their temperament name suggests) delight in the skillfully artistic manipulation of their environment. The Artisan/Killers are the tool-users, the adrenaline junkies, the natural politicians, the combat pilots, the high-stakes gamblers, and the negotiators par excellence. They instinctively find and exploit advantages in any tactical situation, and they express this need for dominance of their world in order to retain the greatest amount of personal freedom possible (External Change).

It's stupidly OP. The Reality stone is literally a reality-warping device with no limits. It was fine when Thanos just used it to create an illusion, but then he turned laser blasts and knives into bubbles. He could just turn anyone he fights into bubbles; game over. Then there's the Time Stone. Does exactly what you'd expect: he can reverse time. It's a retcon-device.

Just with those two he should be unstoppable. In fact, there shouldn't even BE a fight. He should just spam new realities (re-rolling with the time stone if something doesn't work) until the people who were going to fight him never were born. The end.

>Why aren't you playing it?

Because I get bored of games very quickly, and have zero desire to grind five hours per day for several months at a game, just to git gud enough to compete at a level enough to actually win more matches than I lose. There's no point. It's like bitcoin; if you didn't jump on in the beginning, you can't now.

>Thanos is a white supremacist

Nigga what? He literally just erased half of everyone, arbitrarily and randomly. Although it was kind enough to save Nick Fury until the end credits. And because /pol/ believes there are more white people than anything else, that would actually mean he killed more whites.

But it's a stupid plan anyway. At current projected growth rates, humanity would regain 3.75 billion people in less than 50 years. And considering everyone would be popping out babies like mad compared to how it is now, it would probably take only one generation. At which point the huge unrestricted growth would continue, so good job Thanos you actually made shit worse.

>>14867359

jews are obsessed with feces, way to out yourself chaim

>>14865750

Shit taste gets bullied.

>>14867367

Jews are obsessed with Judaism, way to out yourself Kike.

>>14865750

Pedowood shill trying to subvert people into being child rapists as him and his idols.

>>14869432

Because killing almost all the population of the planet, leaving only non-leftist Whites is a good thing.

Genociding the jews, the niggers, the faggots, the mudslimes, the beaners, etc. Genociding all of those is a good thing to do.

>>14869442

>Because killing almost all the population of the planet, leaving only non-leftist Whites

You have no idea what you're talking about and clearly never saw the movie. That's not remotely what the depopulation propaganda is about and Thanos is so explicit you can't rework the propaganda to your side. Stop doing this. This is "it's just 4D Chess" levels of embarrassing. Think before you speak.

>>14869466

This, the whole population halving thing is entirely random. It really reminds me of the leftist "omg don't have kids you selfish cunts the world is overpopulated already, btw I'm never gonna tell that to the 3rd world where they live in mud and they're dying of starvation :^)"

>>14869466

he said to kill half the population randomly, the odds are in favor of killing most of the nigs, jews, chinese, etc. due to the fact that they are most of the population now.

>>14869595

I think you underestimate how many shits are in africa and america right now.

>>14869595

Let's also not forget that the Jews actually in charge are a minority of a minority, the rest only exist to provide the tribal infrastructure.

But forget about it all anyway, this is a movie universe where the world runs on liberal logic. Forced divershitty exists everywhere and the most advanced nation in the world is that way because they got space gibs. It's hilarious how nonchalantly these movies try to portray the world that way, like in Civil War there was a very minor scene but it made me lol, where a grieving black mama confronts Tony Stark about her son who was killed in Sokovia, yeah it's SO likely that an aspiring real estate developer (or whoever he was), let alone one making business as bold as investing in some impoverished balkan backwater no one's heard of would be a black urban yoof.

>>14869623

No, I know how many there are but you're utterly delusional if you think offing half the population of the planet Earth would leave non-Leftist Whites in a better place. Selective genoicide is not Thanos. Random death is Thanos. Good luck with that brand of "good thing".

>>14869625

Very good point. That flew over a lot of people's heads.

>>14869625

Isn't (((Mark))) one of the inferior jews actually?

Thanos looks fucking stupid. The whole MCU looks fucking stupid visually.

>>14869432

if that 50% of the population were races you disliked you'd be standing and clapping in the theater. Jews are population pushers because more people = less individual self worth and easily replaced people. really it's just a dumb action movie and you're overthinking it worse than the normalfags

>>14869732

that wasn't worth screencapping

>>14873644

I agree, fellow /co/ poster.

>>14873591

It's more like more brown and black people = good, more white people = oy vey, don't have kids goyim, that's selfish and unenvironmental

>They killed the best online FPS series for this

>>14873525

>Marvel in terms of comics is not that bad

Yes it is. Have you read any in he last 5 years?

>>14880861

Welcome to modern vidya.

>>14754633

Who even cares? Capeshit is worthless.

>>14869625

It's slightly hilarious that when the movie's plot was announced the fanboys took to defending their imaginary heroes from imaginary government regulation by pointing out that governmental authorities launched a nuke towards New York City in the original Avengers, and yet they still continue to support leftist government intervention in reality.

>>14904055

lol nobody actually likes soy wars that's the problem. Nobody buys the toys, nobody buys the games(or they buy them and regret them much like they regret the new series even though they pretend they like it)

People actually like capeshit films though. The fans that say they like it actually mean it they buy the merchandise they support the movies not because it says "Soy Wars" on it but because they actually like the content.

Say what you will about capeshit movies at least the people who support the movies actually like them. My little cousin wanted a some wrestling action figures and his family couldn't even find them at any store they had to resort to online buying but I've seen so many videos of star wars toys just cluttering the shelves in literally EVERY SINGLE FUCKING STORE THAT WAS FORCED TO BUY THEM. Nobody actually wants star wars shit besides the hard core collectors. The Star Wars marquis brings the retards into the theatre by default but since TFA was so bad and TLJ was so fucking bad they couldn't even sell the new Solo movie because even the normalfags are rejecting Soy Wars now.

>>14873525

no it's actually the opposite

The comics are fucking unreadable shit that wouldn't pass for a indie title in the 90s they are that fucking bad in terms of writing.

The movies have care and attention to detail in them. Yes the writing is capeshit tier trash(because it's capeshit) but it's better than the terrible fucking comics they have been releasing. Once marvel cancelled the MAX label they lost me as a fan completely.

The movies are washed out because they are fucking 2 hours long and are also a joss whedon passion project where he inserts all his bullshit into the mcu.

>>14867055

the movies ruined his character motivations to make him a "sympathetic villain"

They could of easily done this by making him a eugenicist instead of a malthusian. Thanos's malthusian logic makes no sense because he just cares about numbers and not individual ability(which could actually be a plot point in the movies the fact that he overlooks individual ability in favor of just looking at the spreadsheet of numbers guys this is how bad writers work they create a character with weird motivations and when fans question this shit they find ways to force it to make sense)

>>14904964

They wanted him to be partially right, and remember that eugenics are considered illegitimate science by leftists. So he could only be one if it was the writers' intention for him to be completely wrong and irrational.

>>14757422

Marzia and him have been together since before he got big. Do you think a womanlet wouldn't be excited to marry a multimillionaire aesthetic swede? Give me a break. Even if his personality was repulsive, which it isn't, he'd have no trouble bagging Marzia.

>>14905112

I would definitely fuck that.

>>14905112

Oh god what?

Wbo wouldn't?
