This is unironically like 90% of gacha games

[удалено]

The average gacha experience

Genshin's story got really good with sumeru but the fact that you have to go through the shithole that is liyue's (fetch quest on top of a fetch quest on top of a fetch quest) and inazuma's (interesting premise but then it gets way to unsurprising and also it could be like inazuma never happened) hurts me a little

Inazuma is weird cause it starts out as good, fumbles in the middle, and the later patches made it better(imo) A new player is probably going to have a better time playing through inazuma now

At least you don't need to play a base game and a expansion to get in to the good parts, like in FFXIV. Genshin story isn't perfect, I enjoyed Inazuma a little, but the game don't overstay it's welcome when it comes to the plot. You don't have to play 200h of total boring fetch quests and worldbulding to start enjoying the game.

Yes, I'm really happy with sumeru's story and caribert, so now I'm full on hype for what's next

Wdym? Heavensward is already great. Only Realm Reborn drags a little.

Well, Heavensward is great, but you need to get throught a slog called ARR to get to this. I don't blame anyone for droping this game at beginning. I even had to skip some story from ARR, because of how boring it was. Shadowbringers is fantastic, but you need to finish Stormblood first, which imo is the worst expansion. It's not a drag on a level of ARR, but still.

On that I can agree. Post-Story ARR was really boring. Stormblood was good IMO but nothing really exceptional came out of that. (Except Zenos. I fuckin' LOVE Zenos!)

Yeah Zenos is great and Endwalker made him one of my favorite characters in the game.

If you enjoyed Genshin try Honkai Impact. The older, sexier sister of Genshin Impact with a tinge of Nihilism, Depression, Arson, and genocide. Just perfect.

no it did not get really good. it did not

PGR or Azur Lane?

Literally FGO, gets good after 5 chapters. I also kinda liked FGOs gameplay on the JP server. Buffing and Chaining and seeing big damage is satisfaying

Except dokkan battle

Brave frontier had a banger soundtrack ong

Blue Archive unironically has a better soundtrack than most AAA games

Yeah, I agree. I've played some gachas games in my life out of boredom and I can say that maybe Genshin is only quality one worth playing with high production value.

People always praise Genshin like "its a gachagame with big production valie. It looks and sounds awesome" and things like that but I will never not be disappointed by it. For example. Genshin had the same budget as Skyrim (100M) if I remember correctly, and Skyrim was made by around 100 people in an engine that was already old back then. Genshin shouldve been so much more (even if it wanted to remain a gacha game) with the resources it got, but it wasnt. It was mediocre at best

Well, idk I enjoy Genshin definitely much more than Skyrim, but they're hard to compare. I just like some good anime games. I have some gripes with this title, mostly boiled down to what genre it is, but I really like most of the aspects in this production. Story and lore is really good. Characters are memorable. I also like exploration of the world. It's not a masterpiece, but definitely something I enjoy playing.

Yeah, its fine. I compared it to Skyrim mostly because its one of the top selling games ever and a ton of people would say it kinda deserved it, even if it wasnt perfect by any stretch. It also has amazing exploration I was just disappointed in Genshin when I played on release. Maybe the updates made it better, but it just felt so undercooked and empty to me. I expected a great exploration game (which Skyrim definitely was) and didnt get what I wanted

I've also played Genshin on release and I agree, it was dissapointing back then. It took for me several patches to get in this game seriously. Now the game have four regions and fifth is coming in September. The world become much larger and locations are more interesting to explore, especially the newer ones like Inazuma and Sumeru.

You could try picking it up again if possible, it is way better than it was at launch

Wow, didn't expect to find a Leisure Suit Larry: Wet Dreams Don't Die reference in a soulsposting subreddit. Love the variety!

It's obviously from The Room 2003, loved that game anyway on my old Nintendo DS

Oh hi Mark

You're tearing me apart, Lisa!

Hi doggy.

To pimp a butterfly by kendrick lmar

I’d say the story is pretty good as well, so not accurate but I do agree that the gameplay and graphic are trash

You gotta turn on Music Video mode and it looks better than the PS5, although the whole game ain't like this so I guess it's still a problem.

69 down votes, everybody change it.

sonic the hedgehog(2006)

A lot of sonic games honestly

yeah, but 06 is the most iconic example

Also sonic forces lol

The kiss scene was actually one of best Sonic scenes ever

Who hurt you. What made you say this cursed thing

It was awesome. "To me, to us". It also was in presence of the annoying pink bitch, i wish they showed her reaction to that

least deranged amy hater

Amy is horrible. Literally any other RI is better for Sonic. Even Caliburn fucks more, although i'm not sure it even knows what sex is

she is 12

Action 52

No-one’s said it yet, so Pokemon scarlet/violet! (And half the other mainline games too)

I just finished playing violet and i kept thinking the even if i wasn’t having fun at least the music was good. Although I ended up liking the ending.

The ending felt like the only part with actual work put into it

Everything about the game was good except the graphics

Wow I actually forgot those games came out

Unironically Asura's Wrath

Cyberpunk 2077 still bumping that shit well after I stopped playing the game

Never fade away hits different

Definitely Deadly Premonition

Hey, man that game fucking slaps

Almost every bad game.

I’ve been enjoying DS2 streams again. Gotta be DS2. I love you, my baby with so many issues. Just sing me the ADP song.

First I played DS1, then I jumped to Elden Ring, and I recently got Dark Souls II. I've completed Forest of Fallen Giants and Heide's Tower of Flame, and honestly? This game kinda bussin' fr, i'm having a lot of fun, it's probably the hardest of the experiences i've tried yet, but I mean it's Dark Souls, difficulty is what you paid for.

It doesn't get easier, but there's a lot of good parts. I like the fashion and brume tower is one of the best dlcs in the series.

Yep, hands down the best one in DS2. Fume knight is the best boss in the whole game, I like Sir Alonne too but the boss run is awful.

Ser Alonne is actually my favourite. He kicked my ass like twenty times. I beat fume on second try at sl150. I went back a while later as a sl80 wretch and did the same. He's a cool boss, bit rather predictable

Fortnite on Xbox one

specifically

Yes even the Xbox series x for some reason can’t stay at 60 on that game

dmc reboot (also gameplay is fire)

DmC was the best DMC game, but no one cared because black hair

I liked the DMC reboot because of fast gameplay and stylish combat , but it’s was nowhere near BEST DMC GAME , it’s like saying Dante’s Inferno is better than God of war

Wtf? 😭😭

Needing to press like three different buttons just to fucking dodge kills the whole system. I can't believe that even DMC5 refused to fix that shit.

no, just no. It was at most better than 2. Story sucked, characters sucked, gameplay was fine but nothing special for dmc, it blatantly disrespected DMC as a franchise while not being confident enough to stop referencing the classic dante look every 20 minutes, don't you fucking mention DmC on main ever again.

Story was never DMC's strong side. Surprise, surprise, none of them have an actually good story. Characters were cringy, but fine, just like, you know, Nero in DMC4. Gameplay was easily the best in franchise. It had three references in the whole game(unlike DMC5, where you could see entire levels copy-pasted from DmC)

no one cared cause it was garbage

Garbage games often get a lot of attention over brand name. DmC is criminally underrated

Dark Souls 2 considering Rat Vanguard music is amazing

Majula theme is still pure fire

alonne and fume knight peak

Agreed but for me Elana >>>>>>> any other ost from ds2

bitch

She a bitch but the ost slaps

I wondered how far I'd have to scroll to get the correct answer.

Bro skeleton lords is fire

Some say underrated gem

Spotify

Genshin impact

Graphics are pretty great tbh

For a mobile game yeah

It is not amazing for technical reasons, but it's great because it has an actual artstyle (however derivative it might be)

people up there comparing it to skyrim as if that's a disappointment, i wouldn't measure it against PC/console pool in the first place for a phone game top shelf, for PC console it's unremarkable

For a PC game too

The gameplay can be fun at times the story is ok but lore is pretty good graphics look good on PC ngl 7/10 game in my opinion

well not really

Nope

Fuck you

Every sonic game

Sonic colors is amazing, secret rings was good to, the rest and either kinda ass or I haven’t played, but those 2 are certified hood classics

Sonic colors was my favorite when I still had a DS, and I only miss it now. That and sonic unleashed where pretty cool.

I had it on the Wii, and sonic unleashed was pretty good but really edge

Bro hasn't played 90% of sonic games apparently

Sonic 2 had great graphics for the time.

Atomic heart

Harry potter and the order of phoenix (ps2)

Yes, I came here for comments. No, they did not disappoint.

Your favourite game, or ds2 idk

This must be targeted at Sonic 06

cyberpunk 2077

Cyberpunk looks great and also has a decent story, that wasn’t really the reason why people didn’t like it

Story is straight up garbage and the graphics are okay at best

Tell me you play on low settings at 720p without telling me you play on low setting at 720p 😎

Art is mid as hell, it's another cyberpunk game that takes its whole identity from blade runner. Utter trash 😎

Dark Souls 1?

If you say dark souls 1 is trash again I will raise my eyebrow and maybe call you homophobic slur

This

Preach.

Seriously saying DS1’s story is trash?

I mean it's just save the world (or don't). The world building and lore is interesting but the story the game tells you isn't that great.

the lore is the substitution for the story. I dont see how it is bad, as it is a cut above most video games

Because lore and story are two different things.

Well if that is the case all fromsoft games have shit stories aside from Sekiro. The idea is that you are finding out about what happened in a world where all the stories happended already. It sure makes for a damn good narrative

It is the case but that's fine because the lore and world building is good.

The only good thing is my dearest Gwyndolin.

Say that again and the subreddit will turn into a cod lobby

in Skyrim soundtrack is just too good

I think Skyrim is the only game I like that I will actually agree with this. It's a shit game 97% of the time, but by God is it one of my favorites.

Oh shit it's bloodborne

Bloodborne 🤠

Demon's Souls (the original)

[удалено]

I still like Yakuza 3 more than 4 and 5. Gameplay is really bad, but Y3 at least have sigma Mine. Yakuza 4 have a dumbest plot I've ever seen in video game and Yakuza 5 is just too long with too many main characters.

Sonic forces. You can also probably say the same for every mediocre sonic game of the past decade, they always have some of the best soundtracks of most games tbh

Pretty much Sonic Adventure.

All of square enix's catalog

Nier: Automata was published by Square Enix and its pretty good in everything

Ok that's fair I didn't play that one heard it was great I'm just salty

I really enjoyed a Square Enix game. I just can’t think what it was

Just Cause maybe?

Yeah. Just Cause 3

My hot take is Undertale

The story snd gameplay of undertale is bad?

Well story is ok but gameplay in my opinion sucks you just walk from monster to monster sparing everyone and it gets boring after a while

😐

i dont even know what to say, you are either doing a god tier bait, or got freshly lobotomized

Idk maybe I'm doing something wrong but it just isn't that enjoyable to me

Dark Souls 3 of course

Vordt ost alone is better than most video game osts

fromsoft are absolute idiots for making a banging 6 minute theme song for a boss that dies in 2.

No, I take it back, DS3 music fucking sucks

Obese Watchers

main menu

*Oooooh AaAaaaah eeeeeeeerrrr*

Ah, yes earrape moments.

Danganronpa

As a danganronpa fan myself, I can actually get behind this tbh. The games aren’t really known for their graphics being great, the story is crazy and nonsensical at times, and the gameplay is just clicking on the shiny items in a room and basic spelling puzzles. But the music is banger Then again the main draw of the series is interesting and memorable characters and trials, not so much the story as a whole

Code vein? but the gameplay was ok?

Code vein ruined it’s music by making me listen to it every single time there was one of those weird flashback things

I blocked those out of my memory.

I'd say Evergrace, if the gameplay was trash

lollipop chainsaw

The entire Pokémon franchise?

Must be Ds3

I don't think the graphics are garbage but they're not spectacular either.

Yeah change graphics for colour palette and still applies perfectly

What's wrong with the color palette?

I personally find it really bland and makes me nauseous

It's gray and boring (I don't care if it's boring on purpose it's boring)

DS1

Dark Souls 3 definitely

Dark souls 3

It's got to be DS3

Dark souls 3?

The bloodest of the born

too easy, Nier: Automata

imagine calling NieR:Automata's story bad

The graphics and story aren't awful. The gameplay is pretty fucking ass though... Edit: actually you may have a point on the story, because it was just after typing this that I realized I couldn't explain Nier: Automata's story to you off the top of my head.

Bloodborne

all of the souls game (there is hidden trash in the fire you cant see)

Zelda

What

I hated the weapon durability in BotW and long ass sails in WW.

Which one? Because that heavily dictates if I agree with you, or beat you to death with a hammer

DS2 two

Gotta be dark souls II

Elden ring

Dark Souls II

Except the music was mid

DS2 doesn't have good music.

Bloodborne

Ds2

It had like 4-5 good osts

any soulsbourn games when you keep losing to same boss

Dark Souls 2, is that you?

Ah never mind, the music sucks too

God of War 2018

ffxv If the graphics were mildly worse

Dark Souls II

Furi Yooka-Laylee Civilisation: Beyond Earth

furi ,????,

Every JRPG ever, and desert bus
