C.

I can deal with Try-Hards. They're fun to beat online, and I like trying to go out of my way just to piss them off. Hilarious reactions.

Casuals aren't a problem to me. In fact, some of them can be fun. Like going to a friend's house and playing something casual on the Wii. Nothing really wrong with them.

I would have chosen fanboys, except I can't decide between just one fanboy group. They're all equally bad. Valvedrones, Biodrones, EA fanboys, Microsoft fanboys, even Sony fanboys. Besides, they're easy enough to ignore, and you don't even have to argue with them, that just stirs up more fire.

Femnazis are just hypocritical bitches who are trying to control everything. You can ignore them, but at some point or another they're gonna show up and yell shit or make the news or something. Plus, that whole Anita making 160k from begging thing is just bullshit and I'm just jelly because that's more than I've made in my entire lifetime. I could've bought a cheap house with that. I could've gone to college with that.

Half-Life 3 will most likely be a semi-open world game. At least that's what the rumors are saying.

And yeah, it will be focus group-tested to hell and back like HL2 and Portal 2 was. So many good things will be discarded from the game because Valve's idiotic testers can't cope with minimal problems. Valve will streamline HL3 badly.

Other than that, it will still be a very high quality game. If you're looking for AAA+, HL3 is that.

That's an image made by Valve, actually.

That picture makes 0 sense at all. Steam is DRM and you have to deal with it.

What is a Valvedrone?

>>180325974
Valve's games are already dumb, I fail to see how they could dumb half life 2 any more.

There's already copious handholding to linear levels, constant cutscenes which wrest control of the character, mediocre shootan', etc.

So what, regenerating health?

It's the same as the PC industry minus RTS and MOBA you retard.

I don't see why not. HL2 actually had that before you get the suit.

C for obvious reasons.
A because it's their fault ASSFAGGOTS and Starcraft 2 exist.

D types will simply keep on droning. Some of them die out or move on.

C will get bored of vidya eventually.

B is bothering no one.

A needs to go.

>>180326470
Remember the developer commentary about how they linearized the cave in EP2? Some tester kept turning left for 30 minutes straight and running in circles. They made it into a straight line so no one would surely get lost.

If you look at the stuff you can get on Steam for about 2 minutes you will see how much better software PC is getting. The domination of the console market by big publishers such as EA, Activision, and Ubisoft is staggering.

Yes, a scene that cuts from the action to force you to watch or listen to something. In other words, a cut-scene.

>>180326903
Most of the worthwhile indie games will be on PSN and that jazz.

>>180326832
While it is a damn fine game, I'm not sure I'd say it's better than Brood War.

How could I forget?

Remember how every other commentary was "we put an explosion in the background to draw the player's attention."

I was so hopeful that Alyx was actually dead in episode two, and then there was a "noap Gordon! Who else is going to keep your hand toasty? God forbid you get lost in this corridor!"

Portal 2 was already dumbed down. There was no puzzles in that game that required fast reflexes because otherwise gamepads couldn't keep up.

Btw. I love Valve. I'm critcizing their games because I want better games. Fuck gamepads and fuck playtesting games until there is nothing interesting left in them.

>>180327054
Nope.
Pikmin > Every other game
Even Majong.

>>180327051
PS+ is a wonderful thing, I think. It's giving Sony the money they want/need to make their online infrastructure better, and it gives PS3 users tons of new games for free and cheap, I think that's rad.

Still, PC will always have a broader selection. Do you think Reccetear will ever come to PSN? XBLA? Probably not.

NONE OF THESE ARE FUCKING REAL

A for sure.

Just because you're fat, unattractive, and lazy and therefore can't into sports or other normal methods of competition doesn't mean you should take all fun out of competitive games ever with bullshit mlg and tourney play.

They wouldn't piss me off so much if the concept of sportsmanship wasn't so completely and utterly lost on them.

>>180325974
I don't think so. Look at tf2 or portal. They might not be the most hardcore games but they definitely were set apart from the trends they were released in. They didn't have scopes or regening health (Well ok portal had something like it but you know what I mean).

>>180326790
Everyone looks at that image and uses it as the sole basis for the argument that 'Valve's testers are dumbing down the game'

They don't know that before the image's text they said they didn't know whether to have a maze section or a high octane chase. There are other reasons than 'the testers couldn't do it' for having a chase instead of a maze.

>>180327391
>hurfa durfa i can project!

Can I just go ahead and kill Valve itself instead? Then I can bask in the various butt tears of its shiteating consumer whore drones.

No.

>>180327465
Half-Life 2 beta proved how unbelievably much content was removed from the game. Valve takes playtesting too far.

This is probably what's going on with Half-Life 3. They've scrapped the concept so many times now, they don't know what to do with it anymore. Playtesting is killing HL3.

>>180326034
>Its DRM
Yes
>Its cancerous DRM
No. It was the opposite. It killed limited installs and allowed for many freedoms that weren't there at the time. It isn't perfect but I wouldn't call it cancerous.

>>180327723
No, you don't own anything that uses Steam DRM. A better description is instead of being locked to your PC it's locked to their DRM platform.

You'd be better off just saying elitists in general. DMC fans can be just as bad, if not worse.

I retain that DMC3 is harder than DaS. Dark Souls just seemed ridiculously slow, and the enemies telegraph their attacks weeks in advance.

D is the correct answer.

People who say "A" are scrubs, people who say "B" are paying too much attention to something that doesn't involve them and people who say "C" are wasting an opportunity to remove something that actually has a significant impact.

Duke nukem was given to different companies. hl2 took six years to make. hl3 is taking around the same amount of time.

You mean within the first few minutes of the game?

To fuck you.

They use the same assets, the same engine, the same everything. All they need to do is write a story and build the levels.

wotkindofshitareyoubitchingaboutm8

Only choose "A" if their overall attitude towards the game pisses you off. There's a fine line between a try hard and just someone who's invested lots of time into the game and has gotten good at it because of it.

Why don't you try refuting my statement first. Valve sells licenses for games that use its DRM. Licenses that require you to use a pointless extra piece of software just to run them.

>>180328387
Because it makes shitposters mad.

D - Kingdom Hearts fans

god I can't stand this children whining because of Kingdom Herats III WHEN THEY LITERALLY GET A NEW GAME EVERY YEAR.

Also Kingdom Hearts II is one of the worst shit I've ever played. I've only played to the first Tron World Boss but god it sucks. Every new world is just cutscenes for 5 year olds, walking from left to right, no environment at all and fighting faggot AIs in a no-fun fight.

>>180328550

CD keys aren't DRM you idiot. They're another form of copy protection. I'm really getting fucking sick of you fanboy dipshits not understanding what DRM is.

Okay, I'm actually generally a supporter of Valve and Steam, but this here bullshit has to stop. You're not talking about religion. The burden of proof is actually on you, you're the one showing faith in a system that others are simply questioning.

TL;DR stop quoting things that you don't fully understand.

Your definition of casual is different to mine. You see it purely from a competetive perspective.

>>180329054
Casual. As in little investment that you can quickly start without spending much time on.

>>180328860
It gets in the way for like a 30 seconds when you install a game and then never bothers you again.

fuck this thread, im gonna go watch Gamecenter CX

2 years ago Valve had virtually unanimous support from /v/, now opinion is divided.
In those 2 years Valve has remained largely the same.
I blame EA shills.

Kirby games don't provide instant gratification and they are fun as fuck, so I don't see your point. Plus, they aren't as simple as they look.

>>180321636 (OP)
What qualifies a casual? That guy who buys maybe one or two games a year?

Because casual's aren't the problem, it's the publishers and developers trying to target the casuals by simplifying games even though in the end some people just want to play the new Halo, Madden, CoD, etc. and have no real interest in "gaming".

>>180324046
Or maybe commercial vidya will just die out entirely because casuals buy the vast majority of games, including hardcore ones.

What makes the difference is, the hatedrones were not here a few years ago. They're probably underage.
