Remember when Colin Moriarty and Greg Miller left IGN?
No, but I remember when Colin said gamers were entitled about ME3 ending.
No but I remember Greg Miller turning his back on Colin and throwing away a decade of friendship because Colin wasn't brand friendly.
Colin is a Snoy homosexual that cries over said brand. Pathetic.
Yeah man that totally validates a betrayal
Imagine caring about bloggers.
Greg the same moron that thinks Marvel's Avengers is a great game. If Ganker ever wants to know what a real shill is its that fat fricking moron
I remember IGN becoming a orse when they left.
I remember Greg stabbing his friend in the back.
I remember Colin getting a successful podcast afterwards while Greg went and became a pozzed piece of shit
No, because why would I ever in my life care about mainstream journalism?
Remember when Gav, Krups and Powers left?
I like a Daemon. I miss the old Scoop crew. Craig was pretty fun. With Peer and some of the other guys, it was a tolerable time. I haven't touched GS in a while, but other than Daemon, I couldn't stomach it.
No.
If you do you're a part of the problem.
I never liked this onions homosexual. I only watched IGN for Naomi and the girl Naomi replaced. I stop liking IGN before 2011 like the edgelord I am.
This is the shittiest advertising campaign I've ever seen yet of course "gamers" are moronic enough for fall for it.
>UHURRR BALD DUDE'S GAY BREAKS NEW GROUND IN GAMING STANDARDS BY UHHHHHHHHH... YOU GET TO FRICK THE DO-I'M SORRY YOU GET TO PET THE DOGGO THE CUTE PUPPERINO
Frick off. Eat shit and die.
wow nice cope bro, are you ok? do you need help?
You are part of a demographic that pays 7 times more for games than movie tickets despite games taking only half as much to develop. You are "BMW "owner" who pays a subscription for seat heating" tier of subhuman lack of cognizance.
take your meds, schizo
movies are boring

>pays 7 times more for games than movie tickets despite games taking only half as much to develop
are you a socialist? the value of something is not determined by how much work went into it, it's determined by what people are willing to pay for it.
>it's ok if someone sells me shit for 10 times than it's actually worth
>than it's actually worth
anon, how do you determine the worth of something?
>it's ok if one shop sells something for $1000 and the other one the exact same item for $2000
>it's ok if one shop sells something for $1000 and the other one the exact same item for $2000
I nerver said that...
It’s only ok if someone buys
I have absolutely zero interest in balders cuck 3 but you have to be a braindead moron to legitimately think it should be $10. From what I've seen on average people are taking ~80 hours to complete the game. inb4 the contrarians say there is no gameplay. Yes, there is no gameplay catered to you, not every game can be a fps, arpg, tpp shooter etc etc. Go play whatever shit game holds your attention.
picrel I have zero interest in turn based slow ass games.
>From what I've seen on average people are taking ~80 hours to complete the game
How is that relevant? Someone can buy a soccer ball and get hundreds of hours of enjoyment out of it. Should soccer balls at the local tesco cost $500 each as well? You absolute dumbfrick.
hello, braindead moronic ass homosexual. You threw your pov in the garbage when you compared a soccer ball to a fricking video game. You unironically might actually be waste of exygen if you're being serious and think like this in life. Anyways imma assume you're trolling out of your ass.
On the topic of time spent dictating how much something is worth. Lucky for your idiotic braindead take, I grew up playing soccer. Cheap soccer balls puctured or lost their outer patches much quicker than the premium expensive ones.
nta but I think you need to leave the house more if the thought of doing physical activity makes you seethe this much.
>You threw your pov in the garbage when you compared a soccer ball to a fricking video game
What's wrong with the comparison? Production cost doesn't matter at all when it comes to pricing, only how much in terms of raw hours you can get out of it does. This is YOUR argument, not mine you moron.
Wow. You really tried twisting my words. It was YOUR argument. You were the one malding about games costing 10 times more than they should. When I called out your dogshit take you're the one who compared a soccer ball to a video game. I plucked some strings when I said you should not be given stuff for free. Like I said, waste of oxygen.
Your counter argument to "games cost 7 times more than film tickets despite taking half as much to produce" was literally ":people get more hours out of them". I am not contorting shit. These are your words, you absolute shit for brains.
>From what I've seen on average people are taking ~80 hours to complete the game.
And? I'd pay maybe $8 for that.
>I'd pay maybe $8 for that.
Yeah, and most people already paid $60. No one really cares about you.
if ign was shilling they'd have to disclose it
They aren't shilling for BG3, they are shilling the ideologies represented therein. Therefore no need to disclose anything. This is how 99% of journalism works.
There are more epin maymays in this post than English sentences
>AAA studios shitting and pissing themselves claiming BG3 shouldn't be a standard they need to be held to, despite having higher budgets and more people on their teams than Larian by a massive margin
>people on here defending them
wild, man
feel like I accidentally stepped into bizarro Ganker
where are these studios shitting and pissing themselves anon
Up your ass, clearly.
This has got to be one of the worst attempts at a shill campaign ever. Starfield will play like a Skyrim reskin, have like half the content, bugs out of the ass and a moronic system that will prevent mods unless sold through some official store and it will still demolish BG3 in sales and scoop up all the GOTY awards, Why would Bethesda be worried about anything?
shut up and buy the $23 dollar skin, goyim!
That's exactly why this shit feels so fake. Why the frick would that be their reaction, even if it was literally what was going on?
Why would they essentially admit they aren't capable of meeting the standards of this game? Why wouldn't they just spin it as if that's not the direction they are going with their development, or that they have other plans for meeting the expectations of their playerbase?
Why the frick would they crumble and go
>NOOOOO WE CAN'T POSSIBLY MAKE A GAME THIS asiatic GUYS YOU HAVE TO LOWER YOUR STANDARDS PLEEAASE
It makes no fricking sense from a PR angle.
Who the frick is even going to EA saying "we want Call of Duty to be more like this DnD CRPG"?
Seriously every astroturfer on this board deserves to have his fricking teeth kicked out. These scumfrick Black folk deserve to die by scaphism.
This video and the entire "pushback" on Ganker are manufactured so that people will defend bethesda when they release a buggy linear game in two weeks. Its all bought and paid for by microsoft. This entire thread is just astroturfed marketing for starfield.
The internet has rotted your brain to the point you're barely discernable as human. Congratulations.
>the internet stopped him from shilling for some mediocre game and sucking some shitty company's nuts
Damn good job internet.
You know when people adopt extremes to such a degree they end going straight back to where they came from? That's you. You aren't smart, you're third eye isn't opened, you're close minded and moronic.
let me guess, Series S owner?
lol zelda fans are mindbroken that their shitty dlc just lost GOTY

There seems to be quite the rabble at my gates.
You struck a nerve with all the shareholders ITT.
You're a fricking moron. Please, PLEASE for the love of all that is holy look beyond your homosexual ideology and listen to the words the man is saying, you stupid frick.
Shut up moron.
>you are a moron PLEASE listen to IGN
The utter lack of self-awareness of display is absolutely staggering. The fricking stupidity of you newbies is simply beyond human reason.
/misc/ SISTERS WE HAVE TO SAVE AAA GAMING
Still not playing your game.

Based troon sister. We need to defend shitty AAA games.
But you are the one defending BG3
It s ok tendie next time you will win maybe
IGN is paid shills, they basically said they don't give anything under a 7 unless it's that bad. So anything around a 7 is stuff that think is a bottom tier trash.
i havent played the game. but isnt the third act full of laggy shit, so it isnt even a finished product?
This is marketing, BG3 is mid as frick and I suspect they are doing this as a response to Elden Ring
The game is solid 10/10 but I don't see what it supposedly does so well that would "scare" other developers. It's buggy as hell to boot and runs like shite past chapter 1 too, seems like par for the course in the industry.
the point of the video is to shit on the developers who are crying that BG3 "raises standards" too high for their games to ever match, as if that's a matter of concern for the consumer and not entirely on them.
Whether or not BG3 actually raises any standards is another matter entirely
>developers who are crying that BG3 "raises standards"

Cause fallout 4 was so shit.
I don't think it's 10/10 but it's been a very long time since anybody got to play a mainstream AAA non-Nintendo game that wasn't some generic schlock that they've seen a million times with slight variations. Just look at the year so far, nearly all the notable releases are some kind of port or remake or what have you. A fricking CRPG with graphics good enough for the average normie must be a breath of fresh air.
>The game is solid 10/10
There are way too many bugs and wrong flags for that.
>The game is solid 10/10
UI itself prevents it from being even a 9, schizo.
I'm amazed he was allowed to make a good take, considering it's IGN.

Todd is running a preemptive damage control for the Starlink shitshow that's about to happen.
"Our game is the norm, and what you should expect from flagship AAA RPG in 2023. BG3 is an anomaly that happens once in a century when all invisible cosmic forces align"
IGN really likes to advertise their videos and site here, I've noticed.
There are really few people you would say you shouldn't get near them, but quite possibly, videogame developers and youtubers/streamers are the only people that are so much of an entitled steaming pile of feces that no one should ever give them even a second of their lives.
is baldur's gate the new citizen kane of video game? has tlou1 been dethrone? lol
flavor of the month, though instead of being chosen out of several flavors its the only flavor available until Starfield and Spiderman show up
Anon, Citizen Kane isn't even that high on the list anymore. Get with the times grandpa.
Nta, but what tf is this list? What are the parameters? How did you manipulate the parameters to get this nonsensical cherry pick?
I manipulated nothing. When I took that screenshot in 2020 it was linked right on the front page of RT. The adjusted score system weighted movies with the most reviews that trended higher above others. So that's how Black Panther with 517 reviews at 96% is higher than Citizen Kane with 94 reviews at 100%. For some reason, they didn't keep publishing this list in this format... strange.
>Knives Out
>Black Panther

the game that broke games journalism
I'm not going to watch the video for obvious reasons, but which devs and studios are panicking and why?
What are some concrete examples of systems or stuff BG3 did that causes the AAA to feel this way?
>Make actual video games
>""""""""Journalists"""""""""" shit and piss and cry over their joke jobs being exposed for the jokes they are
A shame it won't cause as much asspain to them as elden ring did but it's something.
I wish, but I don't believe it. While Battlenonsense was still making videos, every developer suddenly gave a shit about netcode and improved theirs because they didn't want to end up with a bad review. As soon as he announced that he was done making netcode videos, developers immediately went back to releasing games with shitty netcode again.

The only devs who care are the ones who also make crpgs. Trying to paint it as some industry wide thing is stupid

Not enough Twitter screenshots for you, mate? How about a dicky thread or two?
You've got morons making videos making up bullshit buzz about alleged testimonies of other devs saying "WOW THIS GAME IS SO FRICKING AMAZEBALLS IT'S OVER NOBODY CAN COMPETE", completely unsourced, and you're trying to convince anyone of this being organic? Did your mother feed you crack cocaine through the umbilical?
anon, he's one of the astroturfers
Journo-shilling jackasses like you need to get fricking permabanned
What's so great about the game? Does it have groundbreaking game mechanics? Lots of content? Extremely well written characters? Extreme levels of polish? Looks just like any other fantasy RPG.
Its like an isekai, only instead of one person, every single character in the game is an oversexed moron from Earth 2023 dropped into a fantasy realm.
I've seen devs say the same thing in the past when talking about how the Japanese market is so hard for them to break into, because "quality standards are just too high". It's actually hilarious how cheap and israeliteed out the Western game industry is, and how upset they get when people dare to show consumers what good quality looks like because they don't want their products to sit next to it on a shelf or on a store page.
Isn't that guy from the AVGN website? I think he did the news casts for that one long ago.
ScrewAttack.
Why the frick is this intrusive, frankly alien marketing campaign working so well?
Is that Daily Destin?
>with some worried that Baldur's Gate 3 gameplay will cause a "raised standard" from fans
Unless they're going to say who is worried about what specifically, this reads like an advertisement disguised as opinion.
IGN is a marketing company. Gullible ass Ganker falling for advertising again.
It's a description about a video, do you think he doesn't show the twitter posts he talks about?
>IGN
Who's backing Larian up to have this sort of media coverage? Who's footing the bill for this kind of positive press?
800,000 gamers
why do you homosexuals want everything to be a spooky conspiracy?
anon, we both know how game journalists work, stop acting naive. If there isn't money behind it, they wouldn't even recognize it's happening.
there is money behind it. it's an extremely hyped up, well selling and popular game at the moment, why the frick are you surprised journos are talking about it? when gta vi drops is it gonna be a conspiracy when all the journos talk about that? fricking moron.
IDK how you can say this after Ganker has had clear shilling campaigns for years now. Just look at what happened with Diablo 4 recently.
tencent
they own 30% of larian
It was funny when UX Black folk were crying about Elden Ring, but this is just sad and inorganic.
The guardian is a mind flayer btw
>has stirred up controversy that
show me this controversy, beyond that one tweet
>That video title
What developers? What individuals among the developers? What are they saying? Why aren't their PR guys telling them to shut the frick up and stop making their team look bad?
Why are devs suddenly acknowledging the decline in standards in a half-hearted attempt to defend themselves when they have been deliberately been silent about it and using a frog-in-boiling-water approach for like a decade now?
>What developers?

Why are you genuinely acting like giving this video more clicks is more important than the actual content of the argument, and defending your point?
Shit like this is why people are justified in being paranoid of shills.
morons who consume the type of utter garbage tabloid sites like IGN shovel out hardly posses the cognizance to articulate anything of any substance, let alone enough of it to try and contort said tabloid garbage into sounding like it has substance.
>content of the argument
the frick are you on about? the video IS the argument. either watch it or frick off out of the thread, moron. I'm not going to summarize it for you, homosexual. Why do you just come into threads and complain like a little b***h if you have nothing to contribute? KYS
There's literally no reason you can't cite shit from the video. Instead you just insist people watch the video. You understand how this looks, right?
It's a 9 minute video. I'm sorry your paranoia and AHDH doesn't allow you to concentrate for that long.
Why would I watch the video? IGN is who I am suspicious of in the first place.
You can't save Karlach in the end btw
Which "dev's" are panicking and saying these things?
he literally names them in the video.
Nobody is watching IGN clickbait you fricking moronic newbie.
>what developers are complaining about the subject of this video
>what no im not gonna watch the video, i'm just gonna post moronic bullshit and then call you a newbie because le epin enemy of 4chin
shut the frick up then moron, why are you in this thread?
>>what no im not gonna watch the ign video
Correct, tourist.
keep pretending to be an oldgay, if you keep playing to all the tropes im sure someone will believe you eventually, stupid drone.
You really outed yourself by being surprised that people don't want to subject themselves to ign.
see
Why the frick is everyone acting like IGN is suddenly a trusted source?
because he makes good points in this one specific video. what is so hard to grasp about this?
>because he makes good points in this one specific video. what is so hard to grasp about this?
What points?
The part where you assume I will watch it.
>everything they do and say is bad because... uh... other side.

Jesus Christ, at least pretend you didn't just stroll in here today.
Yeah! That'll show em, newbie!
go back
Some twitter nobodies
did any of those devs even play the game? its a pretty mid rpg
its a solid 9/10 but it gets bumped down to 8/10 because of all the bugs
>9/10
maybe if youve never played an rpg before
the 98/100 doesnt lie on metacritic
The absolute is a elder brain btw
>AND THIS IS HARD NEWS
I miss the mid 2000s, bros.
something feels off , it's probably fake clout
Good. They need to work harder to make a good game. It is totally acceptable to sexually objectify the men.
The supposed narrative is that they are admitting they can't and are throwing in the towel for some reason.
I've been here since 2018 and Ganker actually LOVES IGN!
Haven't read IGN since the GameCube era but I'm curious is Giant Bomb still a thing?
Guess this is what happens when a decade, or more, of shitty broken, unfinished AAA games becomes the norm among new hires.
Sort of. It still exists but without any of the original members.
Good points were made in the video. In summary for those who wish to not give IGN traffic.
>Devs on twitter complain about BG3 and Larian setting unrealistic consumer expectations of the the industry.
>Video in essence states that consumer expectations should be raised and developers should at the very least attempt to raise the quality of their games, especially if they're going to have microtransactions, battlepasses etc in conjunction to being a full priced game. Since those being in a game which is feature incomplete, lacking content or buggy as frick is indicative of lack of care of the player base and it's expectations of what they have paid for.
It's strange BG3 has brought up their conversation and from IGN of all places.
Giant Bomb is an arm of Gamespots' parent copmpany at this point, the irony of which is palpable. Honestly it has not been worth browsing for years.
>>Devs on twitter complain about BG3 and Larian setting unrealistic consumer expectations of the the industry.

I swear to god, 99% of the posts about this game are just talking about genitals. I still have absolutely no idea what the game is about. I think it's some kind of RPG. An E-RPG, apparently. No one is actually talking about the game. Just the sales numbers, and their relative size compared to orc dicks. Or some variation of that comparison. That's it.
I seriously hope baldur's gate 3 wins game of the year
