Devincels just keep on winning and curbstomping Synthxisters...
I'm still quite curious about the franchise, will probably check it out eventually.
And those films come from a bygone era that the new generation can't properly emulate. I really think GTA 6's writing will take a bad turn, the trailers don't inspire confidence. In hindsight, 5's writing had a significant reduction in quality of writing compared to 4.
I don't dare play games and watch/listen to something on the side, it'd only fry my dopamine receptors further lol.
Hasn't Kojima always been this way though? MGS4 was cutscenes galore.
The idea seemed funny at first but now, I'm not too sure. To make a meme/fake review when you've yet to build up credibility is a risky move, I hope he doesn't do it too often.
Can't fathom having this opinion at all unless you played original instead of Subsistence or something
I played subsistence on PCSX2, the camouflage based stealth just isn't very fun and the writing is much less engaging than the prior installments.
You gotta play it like a semi open world sandbox game. Just throw on some grassy camo and you won't have to change for hours.
I am drunk but it seems to me, if you like this type of grind you'll dig the game 100%. I've never played it, but there are games where I fucking love the grind. To me, for those the grind IS the game. To collect everything in SotN? Yes. To maxx everything in Bloodstained? Yes. I fucking love it man. I think this is one of those.
That's what I thought too. Was surprised to see Synth hate and skip the cutscenes/story bits, they seem like your usual Kojima.
They're too pretentious, even for Kojima. It's like Kojima transitioned from being a westaboo into full frontal weeb shit pretentiousness and fart huffing, the game is momentarily as gay and emasculating as Persona, maybe even gayer and chock-full of technobabble and artificial pathos. The vtuber cameo is the least cringy part.
Promotion of weeb shit in other forms of media kills me.
I find this reply interesting because it reveals that the excessive menuing in the game bothers you, however, when I said that the stealth based camouflage was bad, I didn't mean anything about menuing, crawling from grass patch to grass patch while the enemy is looking away is simply not fun, and the only reason I had any fun playing the game is that I started killing enemies instead of trying to avoid them. Also, the camouflage is far from the worst part of menuing in the game, first there's the medicine menu, which adds nothing, but doesn't really detract from the game if you know that wounds heal over time (and it's optimal to ignore the menu most of the time because it increases max hp). The camouflage is next in place, where it's a little bit annoying to change your camouflage every now and then. The food system is more annoying than that because you need to use it more frequently, but the inventory management is by far the worst and I hated having to sort through my bag whenever I needed to change my equipment.
Keep in mind that this is a very very specific type of grind though.
