Example: There are people, many who actually appear to not be autistic just soy as fuck, that keep picture diaries of their experiences playing a game. Something that on paper, pun not intended, makes people go "oh how creative and daring!" but lets be real about it, its pausing a game, putting down the controller or turning away from your Keyboard and Mouse to pick up a notebook and start transcribing a Lets Play in diary formatting. Thats just constantly breaking immersion, making things take way longer than they should and generally cringe as fuck.

In particular i remember back on half /v/ in 2010 before 'the troubles' when things were already on the decline and the board was full of shills saying "Todd says Skyrim has its own quest generation system, literally infinite quests forever!" and making threads about what brand of Mokeskin and special inks and quills to buy "to archive the endless journey". For fucking Skyrim.

To this day seeing people do this seems like a special kind of crazy and its so fucking lame.

What do you consider the lamest shit a fanbase can do?

Fanbases that over-theorize and over-complicate the games and pretty much create their own fan-fiction/interpretation of the games.

Bonus points when this fan-fiction causes people outside of the fanbase to misinterpret what the series is.

Extra bonus points when the fan-fiction seeps into the actual games because the game devs are idiots.

OP best not be shitting on the maps and notes I kept when I was playing games that actually needed them. Making maps of Zelda, Kid Icarus, Faxanadu, writing down the hints the game dropped, that shit was half the fun of gaming growing up.

Now every game has a built-in map with mini-map and compass and a quest tracker so you never get lost and floating waypoints and it's all shit.

An obvious shirt is obnoxious and appeals to secondary redditors who want anyone who's even tangentially experienced a property to approach them and compliment their epic gamer reference.

Straight up refusing any vidya shirt as casualwear is for wannabe normalniggers who try to present themselves as mature as possible to cover for their insecure manchild complex, the opposite end of the spectrum from the popular embracing of manchildhood that you'll see with any soybeard.

No, it's roleplaying. The examples you posted are all written in-character.

There's nothing wrong with keeping notes. In newer games based around quest markers, in-game journal entries are useless if you turn them off, so you'd need to rely on potentially non-repeatable dialogue to know what to do. Then again, sometimes the dialogue doesn't tell you either. And in older games that held your hand less, notes could also be useful for keeping track of information, unmarked quests, and so on.

It's not a huge leap to go from the in-game journal to a physical one.

Last year, I was in one of my college's computer labs finishing some group work with the rest of my team. One of my classmates had started slacking off because he had finished his work before the rest of us, and this conversation transpired between him and me:

>oh, dude, IGN posted the new God of War review! i can't wait to read it!

<you know that stuff is all bought and paid for, right? it's worse than not knowing anything about the game

>whatadodyou mean?

<the reviewers write reviews for a website plastered in advertisements for the game, and they don't get early review copies unless they promise to be nice to the game

>yeah so?

<so you're being lied to. why not just watch some gameplay and see for yourself if you like it or not?

>. . .

>well, because i need the review

<why? how could a review possibly be better than just watching some raw footage yourself?

>. . .

>because, like, i'm not good at telling what i like, man

>i need the review to tell me if i'll like it

I could hear the optimism drain from his voice as he realized how retarded he was, which was funny, but I doubt he actually changed any of his habits. The guy was dumber than a bag of hammers, to the point he spent upwards of $1000 Canadian every month for food because neither he nor his wife could cook.

This shit is constantly used to defend p2w in games. I'm not sure whether they're shilling or just too stupid to realize that people who put more time into something should be better than other people as they are investing into learning the thing. I've never heard someone complain that it's unfair someone who put time into learning an instrument can play it better. Alternatively, if the complaint is the game is too grindy then why should paying cash be the way to avoid that? The devs should cut back on the grind or implement some type of diminishing return for those who grind a lot.

>>16432464

You might like Miasmata, it has an in-game map but it doesn't show your location on it nor does it auto-fill. You have to use landmarks to create the map as you play. Game hates ATI cards though, so if you have one forget it. also it's mostly a walking sim other than the map making.

Depends on the game and quality of the story. Dwarf Fortress stories are some of the best shit in existence.

Also, what does "soy" mean here? Is it just "people I don't like"? I thought it referred to men with too much estrogen and/or too little testosterone, and I fail to see what writing about a video game has to do with that.

As >>16433566 said, they do both.

1st, you have your standard reputation grind that puts a hard cap on grinding.

3. Lastly you have the shit that old FFXIV and FFXI crafting pulled where they slow your xp gain the more you grind until you got nothing.

The shit is garbage and people shouldn't be punished for playing on their own schedule.

Interesting. When WoW was in beta, the same idea was put into place, but Blizzard swapped it with a rested bonus system instead due to feedback. I didn't know MMOs actually implemented a plain XP decrease like that. Then again WoW is an interesting case since it sprung from a mostly Western playerbase, unlike Final Fantasy.

9th of Hearthfire, 4E 201:

I've been on the run for four days from this miserable creature. Ever since I've witnessed its existence, it has been stalking me. The guards wouldn't believe me and neither did the townsfolk. It costed me a lot of gold and dignity, but I've managed to convince the local blacksmith to lock me in his storage room for the night. As it stares at me from the barred window, I'm at least hopeful it can't reach me in here.

I take things at face value for the sake of arguing, otherwise nothing would be discussed at all, ever.

<story time

In the first DLC of TeS3, Tribunal, it's not uncommon to find goblins, infesting the tunnels and sewers under Mournhold. You come quickly to learn that the assassin guild was using these goblins for their own dirty purposes, when you fall in a trap hole and next to a skeleton you find the diary of a sailor, describing how this poor deckhand got scammed out of his money, and thrown in a pit with the green hideous beasts. He writes in fear as he feels the creatures growing more and more insistent, as their hunger grew, and asks for one last desire, to bury his body facing the sea.

Later in the dungeon, you can find what appears to be the rest of the crew, mostly in nook and crannies, died to an unknown but imaginable death.

I gathered all their bone dust, and traveled to the farthest island south of the continent, leaving them all an offering, a token of pity to their horrible fate.

Keep in mind that writing fan fiction like this is the basis of learning to write fan fiction in freeform. Without it we wouldn't have the super long Imperial Guard story comic, or Tankred.

To minimize grind. Don't want to waste any EXP, so you want to make sure you devote it to whatever will make the game easiest.

It's lame when people act like a game doesn't have a story just because the story is minimal and the game is good without it. Those are the games that most deserve our attention to all their details, including stories, since they're actually good games. Games that rely on story and force it in your face should be ignored entirely, including their stories.

Actually, I really like how you'd be exercising your critical thinking skills and your creativity by doing that. It's much more critical thinking and creativity that's being put into playing Skyrim and Fallout 76 that way than was ever put into originally creating Skyrim or Fallout 76, but just exercising your brain like that is something that everyone could stand to be doing a whole lot more of.

This. Oh wait that was my post. It takes a special kind of cocksucking consumer whore to defend DRM.

Fan fiction about the paper-thin plots of vidya is the most bottom shit-tier level of "creativity" though. No one should do it and then feel like they've done something "creative" afterward. If even 10% of these people had just continued being passive long enough to get fed up and break away from the kids games to do something genuinely creative, the world would be far richer for it.

You're right, we should all wear obvious video game shirts.

You have to understand that people that do that are faux nerds and gamers that only play games (or pretend to at least) because it's the currently hip thing to do. They're NPCs, empty shells that looks like humans that have no identity of their own and no driving passions, their sole purpose in life is to be praised by their equally fake and vapid peers.

It's why they get Triforce tattoos, try to shove politics in everything they do and keep repeating "arrow to the knee" or "the cake is a lie" memes like the soulless automatons they are instead of discussing game mechanics, the good/bad parts of a game, the lore, etc. It's also why they all seem to play the same games and nothing else (and talk about themselves playing at every appropriate opportunity), because they really don't like games and only do so for the validation.

I think your first exemple is very cute and heartwarming, as long as they're not autistic about it online (wishful thinking I know). You're only hating it so much because your pics are about bad games.

Something I really find retarded are vidya tatoos. Not many people lack the self-awareness to actually get one though, so it's not so bad. It's essentially the same as having an ad as a tatoo. Not that tatoos are acceptable either way, but that shit is even worse.

When I first played Oblivion, I tried turning off all the waypoints, map, etc and navigating the world based on my own memory of landmarks, and actually reading the road signs, because I thought following an on-screen GPS was too easy. I got a notebook to hand-draw a map in.

It was still too easy.
