How was he BTFO?
The writer basically is admitting that Miyasaki's worst writing is more intriguing than his best. The writer got upset that his tweet was trending, because you trannies didn't understand his frustration.
>but how can you say there's simply none?
Because there isn't any. Simple question: why do hollowed become hollowed in DS? You play as a hollowed character, but it's never explained why you're in this state, what the mechanism is that causes you to enter into that state, is becoming hollowed related to the larger world events that you find yourself in? These are all very, very basic questions and they aren't even acknowledged. All From Soft does is throw a series of titles and articles at you and then let your imagination run wild. But that's not lore, that's just laziness.
Its because people are quitting ND since nobody wants to work with him. Look at his face, he is seething like every israelite but will never be fired because MUH HOLOCAUST
How exactly is this better than immediately preordering said shit? I mean yeah games like GoW 2018 sold well on PC but isn't it funny how more PC players shit on the game's faults compared to what you heard it was a console exclusive? Funny that.

I don't even own a playstation, but I'm going to take this moronic argument as me buttfricking you and obviously owning you, because you clearly cannot refute what I've said. PC gamers gobble up the shit that Sony gives them, sales of GOW, LOU, Spiderman shows this.
its being worked on by Sony Visual Arts. Coming to PS5 first and PC 3 months later. I know some folks.

Well yea its just a remaster of something that came out years ago. The 3 extra months is because they need extra time to debug PC issues. At least this one should have an upgrade path for those who bought it already.
He ruined ND, they were an amazing company and now all they have is a creatively bankrupt SJW fantasy which they’re in the process of stretching out and milking until people get wick of it. Frick him.
Changing the right way for the wrong reasons can be summarized as a detour that will invariably end up back on the wrong path. It's only a matter of time.
>True gaming >Environmental storytelling
We're talking about Elden Ring in this thread. A game that was viral marketed into success to brain-dead morons that think Dark Souls is an actual JRPG.
I think it's cool that he wants to try something new. Often your most creative works manifest when you step outside your comfort zone and try something totally foreign to you.
On the contrary, there is a youtube documentary about Massive, the devs who did an outstanding job with the first The Division in terms of environmental storytelling, which required months of extra work from a dedicated team. You may or may not like it, but if done well this is one of the best solutions to apply to make exploration interesting and get players to cooperate with each other
Nowhere in the quote he mentions environmental storytelling.
The way he does it yes, not the way From does it. They write the stuff and then they remove what they feel like it's enough. It's not like they write random stuff.
He just says that because people praise the game and it BTFO Shit of Us 2.
What will happen is that he won't be able to do that because he is unable to keep things subtle or people will miss what a genius he is.
He will do dumb shit he thinks is subtle. Like finding some dead guy with a piece of paper on it that says something like "My son, at least you made it out. Take care of my old guitar with the two scratches because I loved this guitar" and then some time later you find a dead kid with a guitar with two scratches on it and the main character looks at it and goes "Damn...."
I think this is a reference to Brosnan's wife being fat and ugly and also to hamburgers being heavily processed cow meat, i.e. an ugly woman with disgusting amounts of make up and/or surgical procedures. It's saying "Last night I fricked your fat, ugly sister" which is, I think, an insult.

Have you ever met an unemployed israelite? ALL of them get jobs no matter how useless they are
And if you refuse to hire them prepare to be sued or have some random prostitute swearing you raped her 10 years ago
Now that you mention it I haven't ever met one. I knew a israelite back in high school and he was the dumbest frick ever who had less than a 2.0 GPA and now he's a millionaire agent in Hollywood or some shit.
but there's that one christian israeli fellowship about helping old israeli women in hovels?
Or Kars 4 Kids?
Or... wait... I don't think i've ever met a poor israelite

>The camera forces you to look at it as you walk by
They are 100% gonna do this shit and say "it's environmental storytelling lmao. Naughty Dog just aren't what they used to be.
Doesn't matter whether he really means it or not, the fact that big western industry names like him have to acknowledge and bend the knee to Elden Ring is a good thing.
Slimy israelite lying through his teeth. You just know he's internally seething so hard he has to praise someone not from his own racial demographic. There's no one more petty, racist, and hateful than the israelite.
This is gay as frick either way, but I end up being more angry that whoever is playing it keeps trying to turn around when you're clearly meant to keep going forward. Very frustrating to watch.
I'm pretty sure the player knows that and is just showcasing just how moronic it is to design a game where you can't even step half a foot off the designed path without being forced back onto it. At that point you're not really even playing the game so might as well make it a cutscene.
I'm absolutely sure that's true, but it still frustrating to watch.
Maybe the clip is just too long for my autism, I don't know.

It was somewhat novel when HL2 did it. Now every fricking video game has slow-walking cutscenes, though, and that novelty is long gone. If you're going to make player choice/actions not matter, then make it a cutscene, and make it skippable.
>It’s a cutscene, but you can control your character in it
That's not what a cutscene is. Have snoy simulators really warped your brain this badly?
>The worst thing Half Life 2 influenced the gaming industry with.
The entire HL series has far more player agency at any given moment past the tram ride than shit like this, you're just gonna have to cope harder. That webm is inexcusable from any angle.
>find a ring with some cryptic description >people endlessly speculate on what it means and what purpose it serves >dataminers find out it's tied to cut content and doesn't actually do anything in the retail game
>boss looks like he's cradling something in his arm but there's nothing there >baby noises occasionally play during his fight >people speculate that he's hallucinating or there's some kind of magic ghost baby >turns out it was supposed to just be a regular ass baby but it got cut because at some point in the fight he squishes it and the devs thought that was too violent and they were too lazy to change his moveset afterwards
environmental storytelling is a bunch of shit, especially in fromsoft games.
there was no mystery. the devs were lazy about cleaning out cut content and you convinced yourselves there was some deeper meaning to it until dataminers told you definitively that there wasn't. then you cope with your wasted time by saying the real dark souls was the fan fiction we wrote along the way.
Pretty much this. It's like the Mohg you fight in the sewers. Turns out the Mohg and Mohgwyn were originally meant to be a powerful enemy type called demon that the player would encounter as frequently as the Crucible Knights, Tree Spirit, or Tree Sentinel, so there is no lore behind Mohg's existence. From just didn't want to create a boss that ties into the Frenzy Flame lore, so they reused what was initially a generic enemy type.
Ofcourse, there's video trying to explain the Frenzy Mohg, but it's all bullshit.
>lookit this placeholder name for a boss bro therefore I am right
Nah bro, mohg appeared in concept art holding Miquella from the beginning, stop spreading bullshit/
I'd like to believe but he's probably just saying it because the western industry can't ignore it. I tend to doubt someone whose speced so hard into movies could make a video game. Still it's a first step.
Games have been doing environmental storytelling for decades and this dude is so fricking moronic that he needed the game that leans into it in the most obvious and aggressive way to show him that maybe it's a useful tool to have in your toolbox as a storyteller. We're already a decade past the Fromsoft formula being novel and exciting but you can now get get ready for a decade of games with no plot except for cryptic hints that the publisher expects a community of influencers to form around because these film school rejects are incapable of just casually using a technique when it's called for.
This fricking gay didn't give a single shit about learning from FromSoft until their games started selling over 15 million copies. Druckmann is such a leechy israelite, not an original bone in his body. Even all the "brave and controversal" of TLOU2 were lifted straight from MGS2, he even admitted as much.
>Walky talky exposition
vs >DOOD THE LORE THAT MY FAVORITE YOUTUBER TOLD ME ABOUT THE MYCELIUM OF SHROTKYS DESIRE IS SO DEEP BRO
I hate both of these styles of story telling.
Since Naughty Dog is unable to implement game design that isn't from 2013 before this hamfisted hack homosexual drove out anyone decent from the company get ready for audio logs and journal entries out the ass.
Won't happen because of accessability. He already forgot the voice over for blind people. Can't imagine he won't try harder to allow even the daftest of morons to play his """games"""
Why don't i want effort to put into an audience that isn't there?
Geez, i wonder why.
Being disabled myself, it literally does not matter if someone ever adjusted shit for me. Felt more like i was being pandered too rather than being taken seriously.
>Pick up consumable "Bigot Sandwich" >Read item description >A steak sandwich made by a Nazi chud. Restores large amount of health, but increases corruption. >Sometimes, death is preferable to help from the Alt-Right.
This isn't about Elden Ring, it's about Sony's plan to churn out GaaS games with Bungie setting up the monitization systems, cinematic linear shit doesn't work with always online grindshit
I absolutely fricking hate how you homosexuals think that randomly finding npcs and solving their garbage quests via guesswork is good.
Frick. Off.
I'll take markers any day over wasting my fricking time.
The best part is that none of you even find the npcs and quests yourself, you google it. You fricking google it and then praise elden shit for how fantastic it is with not holding your hand.
>The best part is that none of you even find the npcs and quests yourself, you google it. You fricking google it and then praise elden shit for how fantastic it is with not holding your hand.
the fact that on steam considerably more people have ranni's ending achievement than the normal ending is absolutely hilarious to me
Why do normalgays have such a hard time comprehending the fact that gamers don't want story in their video games? I want to play a game not read a book.
The Last of Us is considered the best game of all time and it's literally a movie, so I would guess you don't have your finger on the pulse of "gamers" as a whole
yeah, because after 2020 it's last of us part 2, duh. But seriously, you're out of touch in your /misc/cel echochamber. Many people think that either about the first or the second game
I like having story in games but I dont want to stop the gameplay to have a story. characters can talk to each other while Im playing the game and I like it. What it hate is when you reach MANDATORY STORY MOMENT. SLOWLY WALK WITH A CHARACTER WHILE TALKING. NO YOU CANT PRESS ANY BUTTONS OTHER THAN "WALK FORWARD". just let me play the fricking game
>the moron who directed *walks into a synagogue, camera pans on a star of david, character goes THATS THE HOLY TORAH THE SACRED BOOK OF MY PEOPLE, disables shooting for the entire scene duration* >doing subtlety and letting players figure it out
the best part of this is the only other things in the game you can't shoot at are friendly characters (obviously) and the fricking PS3. Meaning, by definition, Naughty Dog considers the PS3 to be as valuable as the fricking Torah
As funny as that is I think thats a Sony divsion rule that their consoles can't be damaged if they're represented in game, which is why they took the PS2 out of Ratchet and Clank iirc
>story told via item description
who came up with this
like you find some wiener shaped rock and suddenly the main character learns about king ludwig's the whatever who killed some dragon or someshit
I'm doing a pure faith build atm. I got the simple commoners garb, still using the prophets blindfold, but at 8 end I go into med roll with a single talisman equipped so I'm hoping to grab the jar talisman soon, in the meanwhile I'm.using the cypher fists and having fun throwing around fireballs. Any tips for a pure faith character? Is it worth getting 20 str just to use the grafted dragon fist weapons weapon art?
unironically if he did this i would probably appreciate his games a bit more. i am actually pretty sick of games hand-holding constantly (recent god of war and pokemon games are good examples) and would like more games that don't force-feed you everything like you're an ADD child.
i have not traditionally been interested in his games but i'm open to developers going in new directions; i won't write it off if he tries something different, at least not without trying it.
>Souls games dripping with atmosphere thanks to design and excellent soundtracks >every other dev instead latches onto the vague storytelling of items and npcs as the driving factor
It's no wonder why modern games are so shit and why every attempt a souls style game by other companies fails with the possible exception of Nioh.
Is he healing bros? I am willing to forgive him since he did stand his ground if Part 2 being as violent and gory as it was despite investors not wanting it.
>"trust their audience to figure it out"
Why couldn't Druck accept the verdict of the audience then? Why did he have to insist that they got it wrong and that Joel was a monster for ending the lives of a bunch of child-killing bandits that were so uneducated they thought they could 'create a vaccine' for a FUNGUS by killing children? He even went so far as retro-actively changing things, incompetently though because he himself couldn't work out the basic moral framework, because he's a narcissist-sociopath. >Joel did nothing wrong
>"environmental storytelling"
Yeah it worked alright-ish for smaller games, but for games the size of Elden Ring it's fricking lazy and moronic. Having only 20% of a story in the first place, and then spreading snippets of it across the description screen of 100+ items = homosexualRY
Zanzibart...
"storytelling" + fpbp
true+tpsbp
Seething because a game drops a little background to characters without having a 15 minute cutscene

The writer basically is admitting that Miyasaki's worst writing is more intriguing than his best. The writer got upset that his tweet was trending, because you trannies didn't understand his frustration.
because he just predicted the dialog of Elden Ring because the writing is extremely predictable and lazy.
I kinda like the gameplay of FromSoft, but this is 100% correct. There is no lore in their games, it's all surface level shit. And its real shame.
>There is no lore in their games
How is there no lore? If you think it's shit, that's fine, but how can you say there's simply none?
>but how can you say there's simply none?
Because there isn't any. Simple question: why do hollowed become hollowed in DS? You play as a hollowed character, but it's never explained why you're in this state, what the mechanism is that causes you to enter into that state, is becoming hollowed related to the larger world events that you find yourself in? These are all very, very basic questions and they aren't even acknowledged. All From Soft does is throw a series of titles and articles at you and then let your imagination run wild. But that's not lore, that's just laziness.
the fricking opening cutscene to dark souls directly addresses all of those questions you absolute moron

He's saving face as the next one on the chopping block, GOW did nothing the other Sony movies didn't do before.
Ragnarok is GoW with TLoU's formula applied to it. Its loss is also one for TLoU by association.
getting a GOTY is get his shithole blown out? He hasn't had a game fail yet.

10 million copies sold so far so I seriously doubt that. Its also getting a PC release this year.

morrowind did it twenty years ago and they didn't need a fricking dedicated "environmental storytelling team".

>click to play this hologram of a gay couple having a cringy conversation and getting mugged
Environmental story telling is more difficult because you have to put actual thought when building the world.
basically this. I don't see why people praise souls lore. Its the laziest storytelling you can get. Even worse than just leaving notes everywhere.
Nowhere in the quote he mentions environmental storytelling.
The way he does it yes, not the way From does it. They write the stuff and then they remove what they feel like it's enough. It's not like they write random stuff.
This moron can't stop brag about how accessible his games are though. Make up your mind gay.
TLOU 2 has accessibility settings which are basically cheats, only morons use them

It's a good joke cuz it's true, which is surprising because it's hard to imagine a borderlands writer coming up with something funny.
Absolutely this, and gamers will still praise it as revolutionary.
They're not.
Because tlou2 literally has the same type of environmental storytelling and nobody cares
Fricking lol. Americans and israelites truly are the bottom.
Either this or he'll just not write large portions of the game and pick whichever fan theory he likes best to be "cannon".

how is this any different to the storytelling in fromsoftware games
for one souls games don't have guitars

I'm amazed this homosexual is still employed but that's israelite world to you I guess
Have you ever met an unemployed israelite? ALL of them get jobs no matter how useless they are
And if you refuse to hire them prepare to be sued or have some random prostitute swearing you raped her 10 years ago
>an unemployed israelite?
they are called orthodox, usually on 10 different disability scams and having 20 children
Do you have any idea how many unemployed israelites post on this website?
Mostly on /misc/
But they are employed. Their job title is called "shill"
Just like everyone else here, they do it for free.
Now that you mention it I haven't ever met one. I knew a israelite back in high school and he was the dumbest frick ever who had less than a 2.0 GPA and now he's a millionaire agent in Hollywood or some shit.
but there's that one christian israeli fellowship about helping old israeli women in hovels?
Or Kars 4 Kids?
Or... wait... I don't think i've ever met a poor israelite
he's incredibly talented though
Talented at taking credit and getting actual talent to quit or removed from the company.
israelite, israelite, Weasel-like,
scheming since a hook-nosed tyke...
Counts his pennies day and night,
squeals if one rolls out of sight.
Promotes a thousand social ills,
for which you'll have to foot the bills.
...Eventually in love he falls,
and weds a shrew who swipes his balls...
Soon this pair of whining scum,
will beat their breasts just like a drum...
And lie about the loved ones lost,
in a myth they call "the holocaust".
Coarse and pushy...
greedy and trite...
beware the israeli PARASITE!
Oh, hey kanye.
Huh
Cool, still not playing any Soulscrap.
Damn papu i cant wait for the new LGBT woke soul game from Naughty Dog
I bet his idea of environmental story telling is to put hidden pride flags everywhere
Art = soul
Jews kill art = kill your soul

Is this homosexual talking about not hand holding as if its some gaming innovation?!
Valve did this like ages ago and cuccccmannnnn just noticed lmao lol.
When? Last real game they released, Portal 2, was comparable to Naughty Dog movies in treating the audience like complete morons.
This homie really never played a Souls game before, huh.
Slimy israelite lying through his teeth. You just know he's internally seething so hard he has to praise someone not from his own racial demographic. There's no one more petty, racist, and hateful than the israelite.
>environmental storytelling
STOP WITH THIS BULLSHIT
IT'S JUST LAZINESS
This only works if your game is popular enough to have youtubers make hour long videos explaining all the lore to casuals.
No, this works if your game is an actual game and enough people who enjoy games play it and enjoy it for what it is.
Lol absolutely no way possible Druckman and his legion of moutbreathing snoys could tolerate anything that isn't like picrel.
this reminds me too much of galaga and pac man, very video gamey
This is gay as frick either way, but I end up being more angry that whoever is playing it keeps trying to turn around when you're clearly meant to keep going forward. Very frustrating to watch.
Yea but the point is that you might as well just make it a cutscene and let you skip it.
I'm absolutely sure that's true, but it still frustrating to watch.
Maybe the clip is just too long for my autism, I don't know.
I'm pretty sure the player knows that and is just showcasing just how moronic it is to design a game where you can't even step half a foot off the designed path without being forced back onto it. At that point you're not really even playing the game so might as well make it a cutscene.
It’s a cutscene, but you can control your character in it. The worst thing Half Life 2 influenced the gaming industry with.
I hate those forced slow walking while people talk/something happens parts. Not always bad, but done poorly it's really annoying.
It was somewhat novel when HL2 did it. Now every fricking video game has slow-walking cutscenes, though, and that novelty is long gone. If you're going to make player choice/actions not matter, then make it a cutscene, and make it skippable.
>It’s a cutscene, but you can control your character in it
That's not what a cutscene is. Have snoy simulators really warped your brain this badly?
>The worst thing Half Life 2 influenced the gaming industry with.
The entire HL series has far more player agency at any given moment past the tram ride than shit like this, you're just gonna have to cope harder. That webm is inexcusable from any angle.
>That's not what a cutscene is.
Yes, it is and HL caused it.
>find a ring with some cryptic description
>people endlessly speculate on what it means and what purpose it serves
>dataminers find out it's tied to cut content and doesn't actually do anything in the retail game
>boss looks like he's cradling something in his arm but there's nothing there
>baby noises occasionally play during his fight
>people speculate that he's hallucinating or there's some kind of magic ghost baby
>turns out it was supposed to just be a regular ass baby but it got cut because at some point in the fight he squishes it and the devs thought that was too violent and they were too lazy to change his moveset afterwards
environmental storytelling is a bunch of shit, especially in fromsoft games.
The mystery was still intesting. Even in these specific examples where the true answer is nothing, the mystique it inspired made for a better game.
there was no mystery. the devs were lazy about cleaning out cut content and you convinced yourselves there was some deeper meaning to it until dataminers told you definitively that there wasn't. then you cope with your wasted time by saying the real dark souls was the fan fiction we wrote along the way.
Pretty much this. It's like the Mohg you fight in the sewers. Turns out the Mohg and Mohgwyn were originally meant to be a powerful enemy type called demon that the player would encounter as frequently as the Crucible Knights, Tree Spirit, or Tree Sentinel, so there is no lore behind Mohg's existence. From just didn't want to create a boss that ties into the Frenzy Flame lore, so they reused what was initially a generic enemy type.
Ofcourse, there's video trying to explain the Frenzy Mohg, but it's all bullshit.
>lookit this placeholder name for a boss bro therefore I am right
Nah bro, mohg appeared in concept art holding Miquella from the beginning, stop spreading bullshit/
I'd like to believe but he's probably just saying it because the western industry can't ignore it. I tend to doubt someone whose speced so hard into movies could make a video game. Still it's a first step.
this homosexual israelite should just start making troony porn which is obviously what he wants
>when you walk into a room and there's bunch of skeletons playing poker
Kneel "Mr. Subtlety" Cuckman.
Games have been doing environmental storytelling for decades and this dude is so fricking moronic that he needed the game that leans into it in the most obvious and aggressive way to show him that maybe it's a useful tool to have in your toolbox as a storyteller. We're already a decade past the Fromsoft formula being novel and exciting but you can now get get ready for a decade of games with no plot except for cryptic hints that the publisher expects a community of influencers to form around because these film school rejects are incapable of just casually using a technique when it's called for.
>Cuckmann joins in the Elden GOTY mindbreak phenomena to torture Discord, Ganker and snoys even harder
Based for once.
israelite
This fricking gay didn't give a single shit about learning from FromSoft until their games started selling over 15 million copies. Druckmann is such a leechy israelite, not an original bone in his body. Even all the "brave and controversal" of TLOU2 were lifted straight from MGS2, he even admitted as much.
Do someone’s motivations really even matter if it means they improve their product?
damn snoys really are insecure.
oh wait, they’re trannies, which is really surprising. i thought they were tendies mostly.
>Walky talky exposition

>DOOD THE LORE THAT MY FAVORITE YOUTUBER TOLD ME ABOUT THE MYCELIUM OF SHROTKYS DESIRE IS SO DEEP BRO
I hate both of these styles of story telling.
>MYCELIUM OF SHROTKYS
How did you know about that?
Seems like a positive development
i dont care what israelites think and i dont buy israelite games
I like israelites and I like games made by israelites like Crash Bandicoot.
Since Naughty Dog is unable to implement game design that isn't from 2013 before this hamfisted hack homosexual drove out anyone decent from the company get ready for audio logs and journal entries out the ass.
Won't happen because of accessability. He already forgot the voice over for blind people. Can't imagine he won't try harder to allow even the daftest of morons to play his """games"""
I hate the guy too, but why don't you want deaf and disabled people to be able to play games too?
Why don't i want effort to put into an audience that isn't there?
Geez, i wonder why.
Being disabled myself, it literally does not matter if someone ever adjusted shit for me. Felt more like i was being pandered too rather than being taken seriously.

This isn't about Elden Ring, it's about Sony's plan to churn out GaaS games with Bungie setting up the monitization systems, cinematic linear shit doesn't work with always online grindshit
I hate modern games
I want to see a boxing match where the larger boxer acts like this and everyone tries to take it seriously.
Witcher 3 really was overrated
I absolutely fricking hate how you homosexuals think that randomly finding npcs and solving their garbage quests via guesswork is good.
Frick. Off.
I'll take markers any day over wasting my fricking time.
The best part is that none of you even find the npcs and quests yourself, you google it. You fricking google it and then praise elden shit for how fantastic it is with not holding your hand.
>The best part is that none of you even find the npcs and quests yourself, you google it. You fricking google it and then praise elden shit for how fantastic it is with not holding your hand.
the fact that on steam considerably more people have ranni's ending achievement than the normal ending is absolutely hilarious to me
And the cycle of trend chasing continues
Why do normalgays have such a hard time comprehending the fact that gamers don't want story in their video games? I want to play a game not read a book.
I like story in games, not story-driven games
also the word story is so weird
>i want to play a game not read a book
>story in games is le bad because i don't like reading
play tetris then,homosexual
The Last of Us is considered the best game of all time and it's literally a movie, so I would guess you don't have your finger on the pulse of "gamers" as a whole
Not a single person alive thinks last of us 1 is the best game of all time.
Checkl twitter
yeah, because after 2020 it's last of us part 2, duh. But seriously, you're out of touch in your /misc/cel echochamber. Many people think that either about the first or the second game
>the best game of all time
by journos
If we were to go by actual popularity by gamers, Tetris and Minecraft, among other games, would be the highest
>taking twitards seriouslly
I like having story in games but I dont want to stop the gameplay to have a story. characters can talk to each other while Im playing the game and I like it. What it hate is when you reach MANDATORY STORY MOMENT. SLOWLY WALK WITH A CHARACTER WHILE TALKING. NO YOU CANT PRESS ANY BUTTONS OTHER THAN "WALK FORWARD". just let me play the fricking game
>Story equals book
So who are the engineers behind Sony's engine that makes these ultra high fidelity graphics? People only care about any of these pseuds thanks to them
>the moron who directed *walks into a synagogue, camera pans on a star of david, character goes THATS THE HOLY TORAH THE SACRED BOOK OF MY PEOPLE, disables shooting for the entire scene duration*
>doing subtlety and letting players figure it out
the best part of this is the only other things in the game you can't shoot at are friendly characters (obviously) and the fricking PS3. Meaning, by definition, Naughty Dog considers the PS3 to be as valuable as the fricking Torah
As funny as that is I think thats a Sony divsion rule that their consoles can't be damaged if they're represented in game, which is why they took the PS2 out of Ratchet and Clank iirc
>story told via item description
who came up with this
like you find some wiener shaped rock and suddenly the main character learns about king ludwig's the whatever who killed some dragon or someshit
I'm doing a pure faith build atm. I got the simple commoners garb, still using the prophets blindfold, but at 8 end I go into med roll with a single talisman equipped so I'm hoping to grab the jar talisman soon, in the meanwhile I'm.using the cypher fists and having fun throwing around fireballs. Any tips for a pure faith character? Is it worth getting 20 str just to use the grafted dragon fist weapons weapon art?
>This untalented narcis asshat STILL has a job at ND despite tanking its biggest new IP forever and destroying gamer goodwill
unironically if he did this i would probably appreciate his games a bit more. i am actually pretty sick of games hand-holding constantly (recent god of war and pokemon games are good examples) and would like more games that don't force-feed you everything like you're an ADD child.
i have not traditionally been interested in his games but i'm open to developers going in new directions; i won't write it off if he tries something different, at least not without trying it.
this smug israelite looks so defeated now lol
He's made what's considered one of the best video games in the past 30 years and has a show on HBO Max coming out that he produced
and yet deep down he knows he's a hack
lmao they all got mad last year when people loved Elder Rung
He is saying this because naughty dogs next new IP is a fantasy RPG (to compete with bethesdas output)
>believing drunkman lies
not even once
>we want the call of duty audience
he means the story, hes saying he wants to give you even less context for characters actions so that YOU will make excuses for their behavior.
Zanzibart... forgive me... storytelling is over...
>environmental storytelling

It's no wonder why modern games are so shit and why every attempt a souls style game by other companies fails with the possible exception of Nioh.
Is he healing bros? I am willing to forgive him since he did stand his ground if Part 2 being as violent and gory as it was despite investors not wanting it.
>he
Bugs aren't people
>i'm intrigued by having video games be video games
How the frick do these people make it in the industry, they don't understand the medium they're working within.
>"trust their audience to figure it out"
Why couldn't Druck accept the verdict of the audience then? Why did he have to insist that they got it wrong and that Joel was a monster for ending the lives of a bunch of child-killing bandits that were so uneducated they thought they could 'create a vaccine' for a FUNGUS by killing children? He even went so far as retro-actively changing things, incompetently though because he himself couldn't work out the basic moral framework, because he's a narcissist-sociopath.
>Joel did nothing wrong
>why did a israelite do israeli shit
>"environmental storytelling"
Yeah it worked alright-ish for smaller games, but for games the size of Elden Ring it's fricking lazy and moronic. Having only 20% of a story in the first place, and then spreading snippets of it across the description screen of 100+ items = homosexualRY
