I hear /v/'s standard insult is to call a game casual, particularly FPS games.So here's my challenge. Name a non-casual FPS that isn't fucking terrible.Otherwise, the springs get it.
Half-life
>>48297213>>Half-Life>>One of the most widely-played FPS games ever>>Not casualDoing it wrong, you are
Mysteries of the sithFar Cry
You see all spring action depends on elasticity: the ability of material to return to it's original form after it's been forced out of shape...
STALKER
>>48297324>implying just because its played widely it has to be casual
>>48297324>"This game is fucking awesome!">"Yea, I like it to!">"... This game is casual shit"You're retarded
Quake 3

I never realised until lately that springs have such a universal use. Why, there's springs in mousetraps, guns, exercisers, hinges, pogo sticks...
I think our problem is that we don't have a definition of "casual".What the hell does it mean? Easy? Popular?
OH GOD.NOW TO FIND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY MST3K TAPES
Rise of the Triad
Why, I can't think of anything that doesn't involve the use of a spring in one way or another!
>>48297693Easy and simplistic

Casual games are games that have the sort of homoginized objective based elements that tons of games nowadays share, so it is getting harder to categorize games into casual and non-casual.Of course here on /v/ any game with a big enough following of chuckleheads will eventually led /v/ into thinking that game is casual and not worth playing. Case in point is >>48297324
>>48297185So, you never want to see another spring, eh? Okay, mister, I'll fix it so you get that wish!
>>48297849Now are we talking easy/simplistic as they refer to ease of controls, or lack of challenge/advanced options?
How isn't Half Life casual?Please, do tell.
It's Coily's army of darkness! Look!
>>48297940 ...In HELL!
>>48297940IN HELL
No System Shock 2? /v/, I am extremely disappoint.
BioShock is casual.
>>48297693Exactly.90% of the games /v/ calls casual are not casual.Casual games are easy to pick up and play and are accessible to everyone.I doubt there are very many casual FPS games.
>>48297632GUNS, huh?
>>48298007no casual can beat half life
>>48298156>thread is 20 posts longYou can't call so soon.
>>48298007Casual adj.1. : subject to, resulting from, or occurring by chance <a casual meeting>2. occurring without regularity : occasional <casual employment> b : employed for irregular periods <a casual worker> c : met with on occasion and known only superficially <a casual friend>3. 3 a (1) : feeling or showing little concern None of these are Half Life.
>>48297185You and your springs! I hope I never see another—
Where does Coily fit into God's plan for us?
>>48298156>>48298171Perfect.
>>48298260Stop! Don't say it! Don't ever wish anything like that as long as you live!
NO SPRINGS! HUE! HUE!
>>48298311Oh Stone Cold, will your antics ever cease?
>Implying good FPSs existHahahaha.
NO SPRINGS!
You'll be the first to die!
Someone explain to me why casual isn't a good thing.Seems like making games more accessible and easier is better than making them a cryptic pain in the ass.
Disregard all posts about "casual games" on /v/.They're all by 300+ pound weeaboo basement dwellers that play JRPGs, watch anime, and hate FPS' from the get go because they're not turn-based.Just enjoy games for what they are, /v/ is not a place with valid opinions. Unless it's about MW2, but we all know that's a pile of shit anyways
come back zinc!
NOOOO I think you can see where I'm going with this.
>>48297324That doesn't make it casual, Contra is wide spread and it's not casual, it was fucking hosted on X Play (>implying anyone watches X Play) and its not casual. But still, Perfect Dark, Jericho, SWAT 4
>>48298197(im not 48298007, but agree stongly)you seem to have missed the point of the question"How isn't Half Life casual?"
Obligatoryhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ngBNklagsHQI'll show Coily, I'm gonna digitize everything!
On /v/, casual = whatever is currently popular and receiving attention
/v/ will hate any game because they go into it with the intention to hate it.
Motherfucking Soldier of Fortune 2 ftw.
