Tired of shit like this? Here's a handy list of options a lot of anons take

a) be the change you want to see in the industry and make game

b) try to educate normalfags about the past

c) play all those games in your backlog

d) vote with your wallet

e) embrace the present and pirate the fuck out of everything

Usually the only newer games I play are indie titles that are basically rediscovering mechanics of the past. It's sad to think 2004-2005 was basically the apex of game design and how heavily things have stagnated, but such things were inevitable. Until the industry can be convinced to snap out of the mentality that every project should be expected to gross 1bil and they become willing to fund smaller projects for niche audiences, things won't change.

Which would be what? Consoles are already turning into pre-built PCs with patches and all the network stuff. By the next or the one after that we can expect to see always online singleplayer games that are tied to accounts and distributed almost exclusively through digital. DLC has already made that halfway the case already.

>>15195184

PC game copies, often times, had 50 character activation codes, ridiculous install times (which is now a trend for console but isn't for PC, funny how that works), for older games, you needed to keep swapping CDs a lot of the time, as for some reason, multi-disk games were far more common than on console, and even after installing and activating it, you often needed to keep the CD in the tray to play it for no reason. Those are the ones that come to mind, whereas consoles were literally "pop in -> play", which is what made them so damn appealing in the first place.

Nowadays, however, it's all on it's head. Console games take longer to download than PC games, both need online connections for either patches, central servers in singleplayer, or something else, you can't really pop in a game and just play it anymore, unless you pirate, as in my experience, pirating a game takes far less time than getting it from official servers.

That's because the .hack series is made with love and ambition, hooks you with a premise that is immediately attention-getting and esoteric (RL dangers in an online game), and builds a greater metanarrative than your immediate experiences through in-universe news and forum discussion as well as implying that your own experiences in the game, being driven by your goals, are preventing you from taking part in the greater game proper

You're just not going to get that kind of ambitious world building anymore until some company decides that game design quality is more important than a AAA budget

Disc check and multiple discs aren't that bad honestly. When it came to multiple discs you pretty much always only used them during the installation, having to swap discs when you played was very rare. But if we compare that to fifth or sixth gen consoles then sure, I could see how console games were more convenient.

one example is how crash had a square hitbox and on certain bullshit levels, tricks could be done to make the stage a bit easier. Now, his hitbox is "pill" shaped and as a result, he now slides off of structures where he would otherwise be stable, meaning certain speedrunning of stages, even time trials, are more impossible due to the fucking of the physics.

Old games have a better aesthetic because of the limitations, and it actually scales very well. While there is something to be said about a couple of games looking aesthetically pleasing these days, the hardware limitations forced developers to optimize their assets as much as possible to still have appealing looking games.

And while on a technical level, yes, models nowadays technically have more detail and more "texturing" the general aesthetic has gotten worse. Especially when you factor in uncanny valley. N-Sane trilogy might generally look appealing however there are things lost from taking things into higher poly and increasing the audio "quality" a lot of the texture of the sound has been lost with the remake. Not to mention with the less somewhat bound animations of the remake a lot of the impact of some of the set aside scenes is lost, as in something like dingodile literally rolling and spinning around the time twister while speaking.

And John Dimaggio isn't a very good Uka Uka


d020ca No.15195482

>>15195481

I can't speak for anyone else on this but the main reason I liked older looking games when they looked "worse" was because they separated themselves from movies not just in a gameplay sense but also in a superficial at first glance way. You can take one look at your image and know it's from a game even if you don't know which one and that made games seem more "mine" than movies and television which my parents were more accustomed to.

Another big problem is that, really, games have barely progressed in graphical quality since the PS2. I mean, this is what the PS2 was capable of, albeit at a lower resolution, but still, you get devs praising "individual facial hairs" and the like.


567521 No.15195502

Also I'd like to mention as far as the Crash 3 remake

There was a massive wasted opportunity with adding in regional variants of the special and bonus area themes for each "theme"

Especially considering that Crash 3 only had 1 theme for every area that was played with different instruments because either A they ran out of space or B they ran out of time.


c336ee No.15195532

It's partly because modern developers don't know jack shit about optimization, and partly because even "next gen" consoles these days are basically one of those "super hardcore gayman" pre-built computers that blow ass. The original PS4 can't even run GTA V or something like Battlefield 4, games that came out before it, at 60 fps, instead it struggles with 30 fps a lot of the time.

I never played the Tomb Raider games, but it was interesting to me how much more dated Tomb Raider: Anniversary looks compared to the original Tomb Raider. Like you said, later games, like Tomb Raider: Anniversary, are technically more detailed than their older counterparts, but the aesthetic quality is worse. I think part of the reason why Anniversary looks worse is related to what >>15195486 said. The graphics of Tomb Raider: Anniversary just looks like today's 3D graphics, but shittier, whereas the PS1's 3D graphics look distinct compared to a modern game. A lot of sixth generation games still look beautiful today, but I think the Tomb Raider case illustrates why more technical limitations can actually make a better-looking game in the long run.

I consider the Crystal Dynamics "trilogy" to be the pinnacle of the franchise. Tomb Raider 1 to 4 are really, really rough around the edges when it comes to gameplay, and every game thereafter (at least until Legend) was dogshit to a greater or lesser degree.

Blame the ease of access to 3D software.

It's easier to teach someone to do stupidly detailed shit these days than it is to hire a competent programmer and cheaper than investing in creating a proprietary engine, so they pad their game with shiny graphics in an attempt to distract from everything else.

If only because there are so many individual jobs for them. They have separate positions for essentially every step and even then each animator or modeler might work on only one character or area.

It also depends on the company - indie studios are more likely to overpay "artists" because the one leading the project can't do it themselves and they're probably desperate.

In a AAA studio, they're paid a standard rate and face unpaid overtime and crunch time that lasts months while sleeping under their desks.


d020ca No.15195602

It's not really cheaper so much as it's easier. There's a million mediocre artists out there for every 1 competent programmers. Besides, big companies love having higher development costs because it keeps the competition out at they get money from the government anyway.

The competition keeps themselves out by pulling retarded shit like targeting oversaturated markets with shit like CoD and WoW "killers" instead of going for niche markets where there's only one or two developers that have been dropping the ball for years (CA and Paradox as an example), or actually financing a few creative AA games to stimulate the growth of new IPs.

>Should people stop playing old games?

No simply because there are a ton of classics out there that even to this day hold up as great examples of game design, sure they might not be flashy and can be obtuse sometimes (most of the time) but the fundamentals are iron clad.

>Do the games of today make the past obsolete?

No. There have always been 3 tiers of games, top tier experiences (games that are solid and remain classics long past their time), medium tier (average, sometimes fun games that play it safe and are functional but otherwise forgettable) & shit tier titles.

In the early days of the medium when the rules of game design where obscure and nobody knew what they were doing most games were a bit of an experiment, so the top tier games, those that worked and went a bit further were extremely rare, same with medium tier but not as much. Most of the games released in the 80's and early 90's were shit tier. That's the reason I never understood NES/SNES/SEGA nostalgia because I had a NES and out of the supposedly 500+ games that shit has maybe 50 are worth your time and even less than those are actually objectively good.

Today there's a greater understanding in how to build games, what to do and what not to do. Despite that, classics are still rare because now we expect more of them but the pool of medium tier or mediocre games have increased exponentially. Shit tier is still out there but those games die quickly because of the internet whereas in the 80s you could be sold on buying a shitty game because there wasn't a way to know which ones were worth it.

What has happened, at least in my eyes, is that there's great contempt for the current state of the industry mainly because most games are mediocre, again functional sometimes fun but not much beyond that and these are the games you see the most out there.

That said, I find funny that a lot of people in the internet pretend that the 80's or 90's or early 2000's where the golden age of the industry not knowing or outright ignoring the fact that most games ever released at any period of time have always been shit

NuRaider is still great looking technically, but it's incredibly gray and brown. Memes aside, original Crysis still holds up great, greatly because the "art-style" can't really call it an art-style if they're going for super realism with a bit of extra color is colorful, and the game changes up environments a whole lot. It's also why the parts after the island freezes over are somewhat worse looking.

Sounds like the journos doing damage controls for game publishers since sponsored adverts around AAA game releases is how they make the bulk of their money. Games look better than ever, but are the least fun they've ever been. In the last 5 years, not only do games have close to zero replay value, but they increasingly are lacking any completion value. There are so many times where I've dropped new games just a few hours in because the games of old are just so much better at hooking me in.

The original tomb raiders aren't super colorful, but that's more down to the fact those chose a more realistic art style using an engine that like limit the texture palette to something like 256 colors. I haven't played much of the remake or the original yet, so maybe it gets more colorful than what I've seen from playing the first few levels on the android version and gameplay footage.

It's really wierd how some normalfags operate, but as a guy from /r9k/ let me explain. Normalfags and women care about one thing, and ONLY ONE THING

STATUS

That means that they worship anything new, good or bad, as they don't care whether it is intrinsically either. They don't care about the hobby. They don't care about passion. They don't care about actually fitting into the community they subvert. They only care about status, and status comes nowadays by being superficially unique and special, but they still have the 'new expensive car mentality.

In short: Every new game is a new car. Overwatch? New 2019 toyota. Desitny 2? Lamborghini.

"Oh man it's expensive let me talk to gamer Stacey/Chad and tell her how cool and hip and with it I am, I'm totes a gamer XD."

The hobby in question does not die because normalfags participate, it dies when they subvert it with their mentality and rank in positions of power.

They are a supervirus, so as others say ITT, simply play old games. Same with anime, it's ruined by nufags from Dickscord and other such posers, so watch older, masculine anime.

Your best bet is to go off the grid and just consume/participate in your hobby with no social interaction with others. 2014 or 2015 was probably the last year shit was pure.

I'm really not sure what it hopes to accomplish because it's so tongue-in-cheek and meta that few, if any, normalfags would understand it. Not to mention that it isn't even that funny, but it's spread around like wildfire.

It pisses me off too, but not because it's normalfag, but because of Poe's Law coming into effect and just how disastrous it would be.

The problem you're alluding to is that home computers have become cheap and sophisticated enough to run games, which used to require specialized hardware, yet consoles are still being produced. However, advocating for consoles to become equivalent to PCs just exacerbates the problem because exclusives are not going to go away.

Think about it like this. You're a dude who likes using Linux. You like Linux because you have used it on PCs in the past and enjoyed using it. Why would you buy a PS4 instead of just getting parts for your PC to run games? The obvious answer here is "I wanted to play PS4 exclusives," but if that's the reason you are buying the console then Linux should not be relevant. It would be dumb for Sony to perform the necessary work to allow you to use Linux on it while still pleasing their shareholders due to "security concerns," just like it would be dumb for you to buy a PS4 just because it supports Linux installation.

Legend of Zelda is one of those game series that I just can't get into. I don't know what it is about it, but it just puts me to sleep - every time. The only one I've actually finished was Ocarina of Time on the 64. I put a real effort into Twilight Princess, Wind Waker, LttP, and Oracle of Seasons - but couldn't get more than half-way through any of them. Like a dumbass, I got Breath of the Wild because I thought maybe the sythesis of Open World and Zelda would produce something greater than what I dislike about both. Stranger things have happened, and that certainly seems to be the way the conversations other people were having about was indicating. That it was "open world, done right". But no… it's just another boring LoZ game, missing half the charm of a LoZ game, and refit into a shitty bog-standard open world formula right down to the tedious resource management and climbing towers to highlight stuff on the minimap bullshit.

At least, on the bright side, Legend of Zelda games (and Nintendo games in general) tend to resell pretty damned close to same price as a new copy - so I can make most of my money back if I decide to sell it.

Consider that the closest I've come to completing a LoZ game outside of OoT was Oracle of Seasons - does anyone have a recommendation on an older Zelda game that might be able to hold my interest? Might still try to give Twilight Princess another honest chance - if only for Midna.

Fucking this. Modern games are complete trash for exactly the reason you state; the game plays for you and demands so little of your time, attention, and effort that it feels so unsatisfying. Journalists and normalfags part of that "wider audience" ruined gaming because they demanded things be easier, flashier, more "cinematic", and in effect, entirely more shallow in just about every regard.

The few fucking games that came out and made a massive splash for being difficult or technically complex, like Dark Souls, are now a fucking meme because journalists can't deny that the game sells well, but simply can't enjoy it because they're generally just unwilling to put that much effort into their entertainment unless they have to.

As shitty as the OP is, Crash is an exception because the game was just genuinely not good. It has a valid excuse, being among the very first games developed to explore 3D platforming and as a result didn't work out as well as expected, but people with nostalgia glasses on can't fucking help themselves, and now it's going to be used as a bludgeon by every fucking journalist under the sun to sit and scream:

<Oy vey, look at dat game, goyim. It was so bad, you oughta just fughetaboutit and buy ah new Wolfenjew 3: The Goyim Strike Back.

The loss of rentals and demos, combined with the continued push for preorders and DLC, are the death of gaming. They can push absolute shit onto our plate and normalfags will just eat it right up, convincing publishers that they can cut more corners and drive away more talent and still make record profits.

I agree that more shit games are released in a week today than in a year 20 years ago but there are still a few great games every year.

To be fair, there were always mountains of shit. The cream of the crop used to rise to the top because people had the opportunity to try things out before they purchased through rentals and demos, and hobbyist media outlets were generally more honest back in the 90's, even as far out as the early 2000's. There were still mountains upon mountains of shitty games made, and people so rarely heard about them because nobody bothered talking about them.

Now, the internet exists, and journalists are far, FAR more pozzed than before; all the ethical talent has left, leaving useful idiots and ideologues in their place. Publishers overwhelmingly control the narrative, ensuring that only their trash-heap games are actually heard about while genuinely wonderful games either have to break the system Cuphead, stick directly in the fucking eye of the journalist hacks Dark Souls, or just be really fucking lucky. Most games that are made, good or bad, fly under the radar due to a simple lack of advertisement, and nobody has the fucking opportunity to try before they buy; normalfags that have only been playing games for 2-5 years don't know the way things used to be, so being able to test things out before they make their decision, combined with the overhyped prevalence of preordering and the propaganda machine of hobbyist media, makes shit seem good and quality titles go entirely unheard of.

Yeah, modern pixel art with low-rez sub-EGA color palettes and inauthentic riffs on 8-bit Ataris/C64s (while calling them "SNES 16-bit" graphics) is so much better than the past where you had vibrant environments and detailed character designs.

>Wah Japan is xenophobic and racist

Only because anything less kowtowing than "gratefully sucking Sharia law cock as they behead you" is "xenophobic and racist" to these cucks.

Can't say no to those digits.

Shinya Arino of Game Center CX. It's a nip TV show about a man from a comedy duo playing vidya, not being very good at it, but still doing his best and, doing something that I've never seen a single jewtube let's player do, taking responsibility for his failings and not blaming the game. You should check it out. The first 16 seasons are near-fully subbed, as far as I know, it's on season 20 now. Most of it is subbed by goons, but it's pretty good still, they actually did some good for once in their lives.

>the game plays for you and demands so little of your time, attention, and effort that it feels so unsatisfying.

Try to grow up and go for the real change. Playing against real people. Then we can have good laughs about your efforts.

nah games are way worse because they filled with stuff to make money instead of prioritizing what makes the unique and enjoyable like before

I have like 3 games that I really actually loved but I've died inside to the point that I wouldn't give a fuck if they were deleted from this world tomorrow. Or worse, get (((remade))) into some newfangled abomination by the kikes

I heard from somebody in the biz that editors have control over the titles and intentionally make them provocative for viraling purposes.

You mean that gimmick shitty devs use to cover for the fact they can't come up with interesting stages or challenges to make an engaging game?

The mass media didn't say a word about Super Robot Wars X though.

Games like dark souls and cuphead won attention due to the focus on the fantastic gameplay that also showed no mercy. While the "meme" of it being "super hard" popularized them, they honestly are mostly games that are just sticking to the rules of a game that rewards good gameplay and punishes bad gameplay. Hell, the reason I keep posting Jurassic Park on the sega genesis is due to it having a plethora of gameplay features not explicitly listed and has no mercy if you fuck up, yet the game is very clearly beatable and not broken.

>play as Raptor

>levels are a little streamlined and only 5 are available

>still get progressively harder with more foes, more difficult platforming, and introducing new mechanics (opening doors in the final level requires you to press diagonally forward+up, a mechanic not used anywhere else in the game)

>Grant requires more planned movements and platforming

>has 8 levels instead of 5 with much more difficult pathfinding and mechanics

>has several instant death situations that force you to figure out what will kill you and not be a fucking faggot

>tutorials you on how to press buttons by having the T-rex smash through a wall in the second level, but has a safe space under the floor under it

>because you can move the camera by pressing down or up on the control pad, folks who look up at the rex from under the floor will accidentally press one of the 4 buttons on the wall

>pressing any of them opens the door to exit the level

>this mechanic is needed to activate buttons and valves later in the more difficult stages

<"th-this is too hard! I'm gonna use a cheat code to skip to a later level!"

>sure, you can do that…

>but you'll start with 0 in ALL ammo and most of the later Grant levels throw Raptors in your face and unless you're already good at the game, you're fucking dead anyway

The power station/level 2 for Grant was tricky but interesting. If you SOMEHOW got to the pump station via luck, the pump station was a full stop with it's plethora of valves, buttons, and deathtraps for the idiots

<hurr durr, I'm gonna knock this GIANT METAL WHEEL free so I can stand on it

>[giant metal wheel crushes the player and kills him instantly if you end up under it before it rolls into position and makes a very clear CLANK sound to indicate it's not dangerous anymore]

<waa why is this game so fucking unfair?!
