Your enjoyment and the quality of the game aren't one and the same thing.

Your enjoyment: whatever goes in your head
The quality of the game: Every game should strive to be as perfect realization of their core design as feasible. Quality is about how close to that ideal they get. For example, Tetris has perfect design that is relatively easy to execute "perfectly", which makes it an objectively high quality game. Conversely, the designers of Dragon Age 2 might consciously have made decisions like taking away the tactical component or having no switchable gear for party members, but they most certainly didn't intend combat to bee too clunky to be enjoyable in any way, writing to be mind-bogglingly bad, music to be completely forgettable, content to be constantly recycled or any of such things (some things are measurable, things like visual style are judged against the tastes of general audiences it was marketed to): it's incredibly far from the "ideal DA2", which makes it objectively bad.

Don't get me wrong, I think that there are too many casual, mainstream games on the market, but I don't think it's impossible to enjoy the tougher things and the more fun things.

No, I'm saying that your opinion is not fact. You may enjoy something and I'm not going to tell you not to enjoy it. Yet just because you enjoy something doesn'tt mean it was good.

I'll give a game example from myself. Alpha Protocol. The game was repetitive and uncreative, yet I played through it and enjoyed it because I am a sucker for spy related things and I liked the dialogue system. Just because I enjoyed it doesn't mean it was a good game. Looking at it objectively, it is pretty bad.

Christ, is it so hard to understand that? Are you people too proud to accept you could enjoy mediocre or shit games?
>>

I laugh at human tragedies and hate every game that is popular regardless of its actual quality.

I also use "LE" and "xD" ironically even though using them that way has become more obnoxious than their original use.

>>200903939
I had the exact opposite. Everyone was praising stalkier like it was the second coming of jesus, so I bought SoC and CoP in a promotion for dirt cheap.

It turned out to be just another brown fps. And not even a good one. The gunfights were boring as hell, you could just duck behind a cover, stand up, spray and pray, hide again, repeat ad nauseum. Add to that the fact the the world was grey and boring and how whenever you got hurt you could just spam medkits and you get a rather medicore game.

It's an acquired taste it doesn't feel as fast as most other futuristic racers until you get to the harder modes and the tracks are very narrow and technical compared to most others of it's type. It can be rather polarizing for people not used to such.

Well, I'm impressed that you're really trying to prove your opinions are objective, way to never back down even when the overwhelming evidence is against you.

This isn't going to be anything like that. You don't really "fly" a ship as much as you "direct" one. You pick a destination from a list, fly to it, and orbit it or keep it at range. The explorer/probes mechanic is kind of cool, but it's tedious and has little in terms of payoff.

Just go to the website and start a 2 week trial, it's free and you don't have to give a credit card or anything. You can see for yourself what you've been "missing".

Oh, no witty rebuttal? No cool kid finisher?

Well let me go ahead and finish this conversation for you: you can't. You can't prove something tastes like shit to someone else. You can't say "oh well no one I personally know likes eating shit", because then you're just making an appeal to the popularity of your views. You can't say "I've never thought it tasted good", because you are not the person in question. There is no way to prove it, so it is not an objective fact. There is no circumstance when your opinion could be universal or objective in any way. You can argue that a game is of poorer quality than another via the means of how it was made, the limited scope, etc. But you cannot argue that a game itself is universally "bad". Someone out there might like it, and to that person, you are the one who is incorrect.

I don't understand all the hate Skyrim gets. It's an improvement on Oblivion in every aspect but quest diversity and the size of cities, but for the latter you can argue that it's supposed to feel "Rural" anyways.

I get that people were upset about Todd Howard's silver tongue, but come on: it's an elder scrolls game. You can make a reasonable assumption about what you're going to get.

Because Oblivion sucked, and Morrowind before it, and Skyrim still refuses to address the points that made these game so utterly flawed. Namely, the world feels fake.

I think its the most well rounded Elder Scrolls game. Yes, it has many flaws, but there's a reason people log 100+ hours into it.

There is a reason to complain too, I think a lot of /v/'s criticism is valid but it was still a very good game depending on your personal taste.

That's the problem I have: the people that dislike it can't fucking shut up about it. I haven't heard a unique complaint about the game since it launched, but every thread you try to talk about the game, some idiot has to act like he's reinventing the wheel by shouting about linear dungeons again.

Some shit just isn't going to be perfect, and demanding that everything and everyone perfectly conform to your biased views makes you look like a jackass.

I wouldn't call it "really good," but it certainly didn't ruin the franchise like everyone said it did. It was just Mercenaries 1 in a new setting with new vehicles and weapons. It had the EA™ stamp of approval (it was a buggy, rushed mess) but it was still a lot of fun.

>>200900730
I think everyone's main gripe with SC:C was its detachment from the rest of the franchise.

It wasn't a bad game but it was far removed from the Splinter Cell we had been used to. It would've been much easier to swallow if it was just someone elses story instead of Fisher.

Even on the hardest difficulty, going loud was just as viable as going quiet. The tension was gone. It felt like a long episode of 24 with gymnastics. Stop terrorist threat, save daughter (again), rescue president... Yeah.

Not to mention they abandoned trying to refine the interesting concept of Spy vs Merc multiplayer and opted for very plain game modes. Get from A to B. Wave-based defence. Or simply, shoot eachother.

Besides the one mode where you fail if you get spotted, it went all out in alienating the owners of any previous title. Oh. And it had a button dedicated to automatic headshots.

> why you keep playing games you know you're going to dislike

I believe in a thing called progress. When a game is released years later, with years of extra thought behind it, I expect it to address prior flaws. Instead we get, yet again, a single player MMO.

See, if you just stop caring about how different it is from Chaos Theory, it's fun as shit. Especially co-op and Hunter mode, every game became a puzzle of how to take out every enemy without being caught. The campaign was disappointing and too easy, but the game really shined in all the other modes offered.

Child, calling people "Sunshine" to attempt to sound more mature doesn't disprove arguments held against you. Neither does refusing to address the original argument. Nor do appeals to ridicule and claiming someone lacks intelligence because of their nationality.

What argument? "Opinions can't ever be wrong"?

> Neither does refusing to address the original argument

Completely dismantled.

> claiming someone lacks intelligence because of their nationality.

Another typical American failure.

"All opinions are right!" is your nation's thing
>>
>>200907534

That's all true, but if you release a game in the SC franchise you can't expect SC fans not to play it. And SC fans are people who enjoy SC gameplay. If you change the gameplay, surely you see the problem?

Who cares? Ubisoft wasn't hiding what the game was going to be like before it launched, if you bought it expecting Chaos Theory, then it's your fault for not paying attention and just buying shit because of the name. I have no sympathy for the mindless consumer who doesn't do their research.

They managed to introduce whole new chapter, fuck no two chapters of lore that has never been in lore before like Dragonwars etc. and then forgot to expand upon it leaving it raw and shit, then they add Miraak and finish him off in retarded way and again don't expand enough and also they fuck up The Voice and turn it into Dragon Language bullshit

What not just for me? Skyrim isn't a fucking game of it's own, it is part of Elder Scrolls series and Bethesdas habit of changing writers every game is fucking retarded
With Arena, Daggerfall and Morrowind it was kinda ok because old writers stayed and new ones added up and Arena/Daggerfall were raw for now so they had to expand upon lore in Morrowind and they actually did.
Then Oblivion fucked up in main story and M Xarxes was the only good part of it, but they redeemed themselves with lore of Shivering Isles and KOTN
Now in Skyrim they try to introduce new lore but they don't even expand upon it, it's not about
>it's not for you
It's just that they didn't bother making more than 5 books for each of these important events, fuck Dragon wars barely had any books about them and we don't know how Dragon empire worked at all or why did Alduin lose his need to eat the world while Miraak was a total failure, they made an interesting character and then fitted his entire backstory in one shitty book and one quest in a dungeon. There was objectively not enough lore.
>>
>>200908549
do you even lore?
>>
>>200908327

Brand names are important. Given the current state of the industry, video game reviews are completely useless, and the only ways to know if a game is worth buying is through word of mouth and the developer's history. If they throw the second out the window, they are purposely destroying the consumer's ability to make informed choices.

You may as well make a product called ANON'S AMAZING CHICKEN and mention that it's actually duck in the small print.
>>
>>200909160

>What not just for me?

What IS not just for you.

So you're upset because you didn't like the writing in a game that had the same writers as a game you also didn't like. This is why you jump into every thread about that game to call people awful for liking it.

/v/ said Bioshock Infinite is bad but I saw the premium edition + t-shit, bag, keycord and sticker for €30 and I'm seriously contemplating getting it.

W-What? Do you have reading or writing comprehension? Can you form a proper sentence? I honestly can't read whatever you wrote.
