Something about larian games but idk whose hating on them so hard.
if you like Black folk you have to hate racists
Not true, one of my best friends (who now won't talk to me) was a racist growing up, but he was a cultural racist if that makes sense.. not a whole lot of hate in him, I don't think. You can promote peace and like warmongers
>he was a cultural racist if that makes sense
What?
>he was a cultural racist if that makes sense
it does not please explain
I hate Black folk and racists.
Most Black folk are racist
It's all psychological projection and has been every step of the way. I mean, when my message is "let's just get along ffs," it takes an angry personality to seethe and rage at that and try to find every excuse, forever, to stop it.

>>if you like pokemon you HAVE to hate digimon
It is, without hyperbole, LITERALLY almost digimon fans seething over Pokemon, it's fanbase and its popularity
I'm more jealous of Tamagotchi, to be frank. Compared to them our V-pets are in the bronze age. It's bullshit. I just want a game or website I can put my digimon inso I can do stuff with it.
I won't lie though. I wish digimon Had a fraction of the fan games and Rom hacks Pokemon had. Not counting the pokemon reskins I can only name like eight of them.
the only Pokemon thing Digimon fans should be seething about is fricking Pokemon fans who want Digimon to be Pokemon
Only murricans, though. People in other countries liked both franchises with no problem.
The Pokemon/Digimon rivalry is the only one that I notice being alive and well, and even then it's like 90% Digimon fans having a persecution complex.
I don't actually think that's true. I don't think they are many real digimon fans on Ganker, just people who want to frick Renamon and people who want to frick with Pokémon fans.
Frankly the most vocal Digimon fans seem to be people who somehow feel betrayed by Pokemon and latched onto a substitute franchise to complain about Pokemon.
It's like water and fire. They don't mix.

Dragons dogma homies always starting shit in dark souls threads.
The beef between FFXIV and wow is funny. Because wow players get annoyed at ffixv for talking shit, and yet wow players themselves talk shit about more 10x more than FFXIV fans.
I remember elite: Dangerous would beef with star citizen endlessly. This was in 2015, it's funny looking back and remembering how SC had literally nothing to defend itself. 1 elite Dangerous shitposters could destroy a SC thread by themselves. Fricking legendary shitposting.
Idk if anyone remembers like 7 years ago but minecraft and terraria would shitpost at each other. Eventually it just stopped.
What really puzzles me is how Roblox never became a thing on Ganker. I know it's for literal children but that's exactly why I thought the manchildren would play it.
Fortnite and PUBG were rivals for a while. But PUBG is an unoptimized mess with ridiculously long matches. No wonder it was btfo by fortnite.
Wow fans talk shit about themselves more than FFXIV anons*
Let's see, I mean the most basic one is halo vs COD. I mean cod is more fast paced and addictive, but Halo had so much more soul to its community and had more "fun" since matchmaking had more variety while cod had less. Halo died after reach so it doesn't matter.
I hate both WoW and FFXIV and modern MMO design in general, but whenever I try to argue my point I just get accused of being a seething WoW fan if I'm in a XIV thread, or a seething XIV fan if I'm in a WoW thread.
Well what MMO design do you want. Don't say you want more hardcore everquest shit. I'm not a wow simp but the one thing it did right was cut the grind and simplify the bullshit. I like casual MMOs, Infact hardcore gaming has no place in MMOs.
But what do you propose?
I just miss when MMOs were actual virtual worlds where you could carve out your own existence and play the way you wanted to, now every player has to go through the same quests and same dungeons and hit the same checkpoints, its all very developer-driven these days instead of just letting you loose in a complex world and making the most of it.
Well it's not so simple anymore.
In regards to
>actual virtual worlds where you could carve out your own existence and play the way you wanted to
You got ARK, Rust, EVE that give the kinda freedom you want. And they fall under MMO.

Oh calm your breasts, Barry

>FFXVtroons like you shit up the place
Another example.
Dragons dogma looks like the "dont want to pay royalties for likeness" version of dark souls they would use on a tv show. like a less, but still, version of monster hunters "not anime" look. Japan just needs to let go of anime for once.
They're the same people who spam Elden Ring shit in DD threads. Most likely discord trannies looking for (You)s
PUBG was the better game
Monster Hunter with World and Rise
I'm just tired of the constant console war homosexualry in every damn MH thread because of the leap between consoles.
Console wars used to be such a dogshit arguement in the 80s, and it slowly started to gain viability once playstation and xbox entered the scene, but after 2014 of the ps4 and the decrease in quality console exclusives, the pc master race homosexuals have been jerking themselves raw from their high horses. The arguement has come full circle and has become dogshit again.
League of Legends x Dota is a classic
Here's a recent one. Smash and Multiversus. You can like both while still pointing out their problems. But nope, it's just shitting on one and just saying the other one is good.
I think melee vs brawl was a much bigger beef.
That reminds me that there are so many game series where fans are split between which are the best games.
>Morrowind vs oblivion vs Skyrim
You can't get 2 of these canvases in a thread without clawing each other's eyes out.
More like Melee and every other platform fighter. The game is bad if the gameplay is different from Melee. If it's similar? Why would you play that when you could just play Melee? God, they're so annoying.
it's more like
>if you've played both mario and sonic, you know sonic is shit in comparison
>if you've played pokemon and digimon, you know digimon is shit in comparison
>if you've played street fighter and tekken, you know tekken is shit in comparison
Modern digimon games shit all over modern pokemon games though
It's not that hard though, even Yo-Kai Watch did that.
You could get a cracked rpgmaker and make a better game than gamefreak does. Im tried of getting new generations when they havent done shit with the last 3. No interesting spin off like DX or rescue, just shitting out new designs. Look at toxtricity and zoraora and tell me they wouldnt fit right in to digimon. legendaries are also getting snubbed, hoopa and diancie and volcanion at most got a movie and thats it. even zygarde got relegated to 1 side quest in game. its a complete joke.
They wouldn't. They look more like Kirby characters.
Mario beat out sonic in everything except story and music, sadly ever since the wii u sonic has been losing in those aspects as well, save for maybe mania.
Modern pokemon only has its legacy to stand on, all the creativity and adventure of the games got snuffed out after the gen 3 remakes. But digimon had a chance to succeed, but just kinda settled for mediocrity.
Both are shit, all modern fighting games are.
>if you like Mario you HAVE to hate Sonic
This made sense in the 90s because they were direct competition and if your parents wouldn't buy you both you had to defend your choice.
Today almost every Sonic fan I know also likes Mario, but Mario fans are the ones who think they are game design experts because they watched a YouTube video and want to explain how Sonic is objectively bad because it doesn't meet such-and-such criteria

What are other examples?
Pre-awakening Fire Emblem fans and post-awakening fans. The first group can't accept that their dead franchise was given a second chance.
Have you seen the kind of "fans" the newer games have brought in? Most of us FE oldgays would probably accept the death of the franchise after 12 if it meant the trannies and waifugays never found the series. And I say this even though my favorite game of all time is Awakening.
It's more like the first group has accepted but is still kind of pissed about the fact that their dead franchise was resurrected as a desecrated zombie
You can probably split post-awakening into 3ds emblem and 3Hgays as well.
Post-Awakening FE is a completely unrecognizable series from what came before, Three Houses especially so

Fallout 3 vs New Vegas
Both have strengths and weaknesses, I like both AND 1/2.
I dont think its so much hating eachother as it is fallout nv fans being elitist over playing their sand simulator for the 30th time. OG fallout fans will never be able to have another game like 1 & 2 due to the stigma over brotherhood. And fallout 4 & 76 are the ginger child of the games, thankfully the latter has put a halt to a pump and dump of fallout games.
who was in the wrong here?

What for? Middle Ages AGAIN? I doubt they will go modern again, especially after 3 DE's shitshow. If they wanted to reuse time periods, they should have gone for AoE 1 timeframe since the actual AoE 1 is barebones by today's standards. A non-cartoony AoE Online could work
>What for? Middle Ages AGAIN?
500-1700 works.
>I doubt they will go modern again, especially after 3 DE's shitshow.
3 DE is just a remake of 3, so it was destined to be a shitshow.
>they should have gone for AoE 1 timeframe since the actual AoE 1 is barebones by today's standards.
Rome, China, Persia, India, and then nothing. Real interesting.
>Rome, China, Persia, India, and then nothing. Real interesting.
AoE with the expansion had 16 civilizations. Is not like AoE2 and 3 hasn't been pulling literal who civs for a while.
Did any of the aoes ever touch on china? I only ever played the first one and the rome expansion. China seems to have plenty enough bat shit history to make up at least half a new game. They could even market that half to the bugs and make a bit extra money.
>https://ageofempires.fandom.com/wiki/Chinese
>The Chinese are the only civilization to be playable in every Age of Empires game
>AoE with the expansion had 16 civilizations.
Anon, 12 of those civs come from the area in the red circle, and the last four are just Rome, China, Japan, and Korea.
No.
>Is not like AoE2 and 3 hasn't been pulling literal who civs for a while.
Just Malta and Lithuanians
*red oval
AoE4 is not that bad, the problems is that they rushed on the testing part i presume, so they are still making a lot of effort to make things fairly even.
I really like the idea of changes between civs being more substantial, but the quality of AoE2 simply killed the series, the fans of aoe2 will NEVER leave this game to play any other age of empires, i can't blame them, the game is really solid, but, goddamn, the other games are playable
>I really like the idea of changes between civs being more substantial, but the quality of AoE2 simply killed the series, the fans of aoe2 will NEVER leave this game to play any other age of empires, i can't blame them, the game is really solid, but, goddamn, the other games are playable
We wouldn't have this problem if the devs simply admitted Age 2's overall models were superior, and emulated them for the next games, but they keep thinking they should try to cover barren soil.
Age 3 is only playable in the sense that I can watch pretty unit models do what I say.
Age 4 isn't playable at all.
Age 1 doesn't exist.
Luckily some empty headed idiot donated their copy of aoe 1 to goodwill for me to buy for 2 usd. Even donated their rome expansion.
nah, they're playable, you can have fun with them. Ofc age 1 is too fricking simple, but as for 3 and 4 you can play here and there.
I'm fine with them moving out of AoE 2, it's like i've said, the fans will never leave it, maybe thats good, cause they still support this game. The issue with AoE4 is not the core idea, it's the tweaks and how frick slow they with fixing them... you can say they JUST released colour pickup lol.
It's been nearly a full year and we still don't have a single(1) fricking new civ, we should got 4 or more already.
>I'm fine with them moving out of AoE 2, it's like i've said, the fans will never leave it
I would if something better came out. The devs just refuse to make it.
>The issue with AoE4 is not the core idea, it's the tweaks and how frick slow they with fixing them

Age 4 was doomed before it even made it halfway through development. If you don't have a good game, then you shouldn't expect people to play it. Contact a studio that knows how to design RTS games. Until then, Age 4 is dead to us.
Zzzzz. why are you guys always so dramatic? The game is FUN, and because it's so based on civ unique interactions, they can just release better civs.
People dropped it because it wasn't as good as AoE2 to compete, and it released so fricking barebones, without hotkeys and etc, on top of that, AoE2 is still getting news civs, that's a natural choice, the better game, the most polished it's there, and it's still having more content than AoE4.
I just don't agree with this tantrum
>ooooo these devs ARE DUMB
>ooo this company will never do a good RTS again
>oooo it's doomed
>The game is FUN, and because it's so based on civ unique interactions
Tell that to the ~80,000 people who weren't having "FUN" and left. Tell that to the ~20,000 people still playing AoE2 daily.
>People dropped it because it wasn't as good as AoE2 to compete
Yeah, because microsoft refuses to make a good game. They take advice from idiots like you, poison their own product, suffer, and run from the thought of getting it right like they did when they made AoE2.
>these devs ARE DUMB
>this company will never do a good RTS again
>it's doomed
It's Relic. They've never made a good game, and between Microsoft's direction and Reddit's influence, they never had any chance of making a good game. Making a good game is an art, and we're fresh out of artists.
>Tell that to the ~80,000 people who weren't having "FUN" and left. Tell that to the ~20,000 people still playing AoE2 daily.

just have a nice day then
>what a surprise!!! the aoe2 cultists never left aoe2!!
Yeah, and the "FUN" game turned out not to be so "FUN" for ~95% of the people who bought it.
>typical Ganker obsessed
Gee, anon. I wonder how one could tell AoE4 was influenced by Redditor opinions.

>Gaia markets
>Units coming an age early

I wonder...
>just have a nice day then
No. I'm going to save this genre. I just need to get the money to start my own studio.
so essentially play 1, 3, 4, and then 2 as to not spoil yourself early
if you're REALLY into competitive and micromanaging, thats pretty much it.

>>if you like Mario you HAVE to hate Sonic
that's true actually, you simply can't play masterpieces like mario galaxy and not roll eyes for sonic games
you could say that about any platformer in comparison to galaxy. its too good of a game. sonic has cooler stories and music, but sega has repeatedly shit the bed in making actually fun games to go with them. the closest sonic has been to fun has been the daytime levels in unleashed, certain areas of colors, and the sonic/shadow levels of adventure 2. the spin offs are also pretty good, but they were always for handhelds so they never got any real love from sega or fans.
I really like sonic music, but i don't think they're better than mario-- they are amoung the most remarkable themes on videogame history, even non gamers knows mario jingles. Ofc the first sonic game have this effect aswell, but mario is just out of the league.

TF2 and OW
i think beyond the initial release and the odd occasional sperg, tf2 fans were actually pretty responsive to overwatch fans. overwatch fans however seethed and wanted tf2 to sizzle out so they had no competition left. sad that both communities have been shafted by their devs though.
This shit isn't that. This shit is people with too much free time on their hands purposefully trying to incite consolewar tier homosexualry with anything they can.
Half the time you can also expect these discussions to be filled with people only half heatedly believing what they say because truly the actual point of being there is to be satisfied with making whoever is on the opposing side "seethe."
Ganker is constantly filled with this everywhere.
Rather than it being about which company provided more to the consoomer like it used to be, its now which company doesnt make the most dogshit decisions. Its akin to liking your mom over your dad because she doesnt hit you as hard. Slowly this kind of decision making will even seep into indie devs and I hate it.
I finally watched this potion seller video. It was the most reddit-tier thing I think I've ever seen, so of course Ganker would like it.
