I said that in 2009. It's nice to see much hasn't changed. I hope the /b/ invasion is over.

I don't care who made EA the worst company. That makes me happy.


Fuck all those sites. I missed you miserable assholes. I hope /v/ still hates video games.

The whole site, espcially /v/ has gone to shit. Run while you can.

You'll be pleased to hear that reddit has expanded its occupation of /b/ and /soc/ and now runs much of /v/.

The only difference is that racism is frowned upon and has been moved to /pol/ and /b/

>>201233443

I don't think /b/ even tolerate it even more.

It was always like that though, why were you here in the first place?

This place is exactly the same as ever, the people who are saying it isn't are just the usual sensitives.

It's not racism that's frowned upon, it's retards from /pol/ who think they're on some righteous crusade to purify the internet that are frowned upon.

And we identify them by their knee jerk responses, which are inevitably racist.

Welcome to /v/ 4.0

Jokes about weeaboo have turned into full blown racist xenophobia.

Actually playing games is seen as stupid.

PC gamers on /v/ are whiny women who are begging for gaming scraps.

Actual PS3 gamers aren't on /v/. They're playing video games.

Xbox fanboys are in hiding starting shit with all groups while pretending to be another.

Nintendo is now lord and master of /v/. Any thread that points out any of Nintendo's flaws, regardless of the creator's console alliance will be derailed before the 10th post with SONYNGGERS.
>Complain about region lock.
>Wish Nintendo would get with the times.
>OH MY GOD SONYNGGERS EVERYWHERE
>What? I'm just complaining about the region lock!
>SONYNGGERS ARE RUINING /v/
>Why are you bringing up Sony?
>BECAUSE YOU'RE A SONYNGGER

The console war retardation has actually gotten worse. These days, I can't tell if they're just pretending to be this stupid or if they really are.

>>201233686
Oh yeah? Well I'VE been here since 2005 and yeah no this is exactly correct.

I'm going on about 6 years, so while I see what you mean, the subjects are different, but they're also a lot worse. The quality of this board has taken a really steep nose dive, a bigger one than it was already taking. I still remember when you used to be able to discuss video games with minimal shitposting, and any if not all shitposting was ignored because people knew how to deal with trolls. Nowadays even the shittest troll or terrible shitposter can land themselves with +30 replies to each post.

It's fucking tragic it really is.

It's the same and different at the same time, as confusing as that might sound.

Neither of those things are good things.

This place needs 24 hour visable moderation and WT Snacks tier modding.

>>201235425
Trolls have always had their way. Remember Toxic Jester? Or the tripfag who supposedly got hit by a truck? People just don't learn how to deal with them.

>>201235706
I just got back a few months ago from a, what, three or four year hiatus? This place didn't change at all. The only shit I didn't immediately understand was what the fuck 'based' meant.

/v/s been pretty stable in quality the last year I think. 2012 was a worse year.

>>201231148 (OP)

Let me put this way artificial difficulty is hated and hand holding tutorial games like ff13 are glorified. Leave now before the casual's call you a faggot.

>>201235981

>what the fuck 'based' meant.

I think that cropped up when LoL generals where like 10 threads to a page prior to /vg/ getting made.

I think it means; good/god-like/I like you, something like that.

>>201235852
>Doesn't remember the forced anon period of /v/.

It really wasn't that long ago.. Was it?

>>201235817
but /s4s/ is shitposting general. /b/ is supposed to have actual content, instead it has cancer and butthurted liberal ledditfags. /tv/ is supposed to be about film and television, instead it's all about "waifus", feet and child molesting. But's it's still miles above cancer that is /v/.

>>201236035
>implying 2012 wasn't last year
what the fuck are you, a time traveler?

>>201235896
More moderation? Shit, mods are already deleting and banning anyone who posts something that isn't immediately related to video games like it's a fucking fascist regime. Junji Ito threads are deleted. Feminism threads are deleted and banned, even though they directly affect our hobby. If the only thing we're allowed is the same discussion about games everyday, we're no different from NeoGaf or rebbit.

>>201235896
That sounds Orwellian.
>>201235981
...I know what Based means. From 4chan. When I left.
>>201235975
No shit. This is /v/.

>>201236035
>quality
I wouldn't call threads like..weaboo shit, Steam and Dark Souls circlejerks, MOBA shitposters, I HATE EVERYTHING, hi guys should I hate this game? a quality content.

>>201236158
Yet, all of those things have applied to /v/.

/v/ is the only board that combines all of that shit into one super containment board since all the topics mentioned have had a video game based on them or at some point were videogame related.

>>201236152
It was quite a while ago.

>>201236158
Wouldn't it be great if everything stayed on it's own boards, like if faggots like you could stop trying to force whatever dumb political views they have onto say, the videogame board?

>>201236152
Not sure, been here for a good number of years, but I don't ever recall forced anon on /v/

/s4s/ is a better board (it's always on topic)

>>201236134

Yeah if you see artificial difficulty get mentioned in a thread, abandon it asap, it's already dead.

Another thing you'll notice is console players posing as PC players starting a Dark Souls threads saying shit like;

>CAPRA DEMON IS SUCH BULLSHIT, THIS GAME IS THE EMBODYMENT OF ARTIFICIAL DIFFICULTY, ect, ect.

Anyone that's actually played Dark Souls/Demon Souls, knows that sure the games are difficult, they're not impossible. As a PC player, I fucking love them and relish the challenge. Consoles got mad that we got a nicer verson of their game that "we'd never ever get, lmfao".

It's all one massive shit flinging contest between the consoles, and the PC just seems to get dragged into the middle of it, despite most of us not giving a fuck about it.

>>201235975
That's how you deal with tripfags. You run then the fuckover.

>>201236158

Videogames are always a political target.

>Video games are making our kids violent
>Video games are making our kids lazy
>Video games are making our kids stupid
>We're not going to blame shitty parenting!


Videogames have always been a Television target.
>Spend 7 years calling PS3 games movies.
>Eventually, people start believing them to be so.
>Videogame adaptations of tv shows and comic books

Videogames is a really broad fucking target. The target is so broad that you can cut out someone's eyes and they'll still hit it with a needle from fucking orbit.

Essentially, video games are such a broad target that it can become random.

Random like /b/.
Except unlike /b/, you can remain on topic while making the most retarded possible posts.

There used to be a time when someone would post a drawing website or some simple little template and say "keep it vidya/ Videogame OC only" and then, 2 hours later the thread would be filled with fucking masterpieces, yet no one would save them. few people would repost and then folks would just do it over and over and over.
