Haven't been to /vr/ in a good while but that should sum it up.
Wrong, there is no blood gay shitting up the thread
>noooo you can't play using gzdoom otherwise you aren't playing doom
Would Ganker be better off if all the offshoot boards (vg, vm, vmg, vr, vrpg, vst, vp) didn't exist? Why or why not?
/vst/ is the only place to talk about hoi4 aside from the hellhole that is /vg/
/vp/ was literally created as a containment board for Pokemon threads.
/vm/ doesn't need to exist, but /vr/ spawned some very nice things.
/vr/ exists because moot couldn't fricking stand Ganker and for very good reason.
/vp/ isn't a containment board. You're still allowed to bring up Pokemon on Ganker. The only containment board on Ganker is /mlp/ because it fits all of the exact criteria of it (no pony images on any board is allowed)
>/vp/ isn't a containment board
Yeah, because the mods don't do their job to contain it. It was originally a containment board like /vg/ is one to cut down on threads that are ALWAYS present for months upon months and choke out possible discussion for other games. It wasn't uncommon to have two Pokémon generals going on at once before /vp/.
/vrpg/, /vst/, and /vr/ are there because those topics would get flushed out of Ganker quickly due to how modern focused Ganker is.
Yes, none of the boards are serving their intending purpose. They are just generating more schizos that ultimately find their way back here.
/vg/ MUST exist, it's a containment board for the worst scum in this site
Its not containing anyone, it's bringing more here.
NOOOOOOOOOO
Ganker was unusable without /vg/ and /vp/
rest of the boards didn't really matter and mostly generated their own communities instead of sectioning off Ganker users someplace else.
Depends if you envision more "X general" among your usual roster of daily shitposts being better than what we have here. Do remember that during the year or two before /vg/, we had at roughly 5 to 10 generals going on at any one time, sometimes more due to how quickly they go through their respective threads. Unless something was done to curb those generals, they were going to make a good chunk of Ganker.
/vm/, /vrpg/, /vst/ and /vmg/ got created from Ganker in fairly recent memory so it's hard to say what kind of impact their creation had on Ganker for another few more years. As of now, it seems fairly minimal at best.
/vr/ and /vp/ are interesting since it's been a decade. You can argue that their discussions would've stayed and be more active on Ganker but I would also say that the creation of an entirely new board encouraged more of their kind of discussions to flourish rather than remove it from Ganker. In other words, I don't imagine you would see much more of retro or pokemon threads than what you already see today.
/vr/ is fine.
/vg/ and /vp/ are pure containment boards and need to exist. if only because /sthg/, /utg/, and /tsg/ are generals that exist on /vg/.
/vst/,/vrpg/,/vm/,etc are redundant and very slow, but inoffensive. if they disappeared tommorow, I don't think anyone would really care.
/vr/ has jannies from resetera, it's heavily moderated even when its on topic, shit like mentioning byuu made bsnes gets instantly jannied because dead naming etc... it's fricking trash
/vp/ and /vmg/ are containment boards
/vg/ varies depending on the general
/vr/, /vst/, /vm/, and /vrpg/ are much better for discussion of their topics than Ganker, though of course they're not free of shitflinging
>Constant gay conversation of PS2, GC, XBOX
I don't care if it got older, sixth gen is NOT RETRO
>its been ten years since /vr/ was made
Never forget.
Amazing how Ganker is just as shit as it is nowadays, meanwhile /vr/ went from being chill to the worst particulate autists imaginable.
Doom is so fricking good, it's almost a masterpiece.
>meanwhile /vr/ went from being chill to the worst particulate autists imaginable.
/vr/ is still cool although a bit too slow nowadays.
>moot whining about "industry hateboners"
Fricking normalhomosexual scum.
DUDE LE EPIC FPS SHITPOST THREAD BECAUSE THE DOOM GENERAL BANS ME

/vr/ needs to persecute and kill it's schizos
The thing about Doom that zoomers don't understand is that it was never about the actual game itself, other than the years it and Doom 2 released, but rather the now millions of wads, total conversions and mods that came out of it. Doom is a rather meh game, even some of the earlies and more amateur wads were more fun to play than vanilla. It's only when you dive deep into all the wads and decades of mods that you can start to understand why Doom is a great game, actually it's more of a platform than anything.
ok but i like other 90s fps more
Pretty much every single 90's fps shit all over vanilla doom.
This is not true at all and this post is everything wrong with /vr/.
why
Because Ultimate Doom is a masterpiece of game design and competitors were made by people who were too talentless to work at id, which are only praised because they are dumb and flashy. If you don't see why Doom is insanely good then you don't know anything about videongames.
>Duke
>Quake
>Half Life
>Unreal
>Shadow Warrior
>Blood
the list goes on...
>doesn't read post, just lists games
Okely dokely.
get the frick out of here you fricking poser, you never played this garbage game.
filtered
yeah timmy i am so "filtered" by your garbage game, your ruined 90's kids childhood with you shitty game and now you are ruining zoomers childhood with Fortnite, when are you gonna frick apologize for your crimes?
steamie please...
>oh you don't like my garbage game? haha you must be a steam drone!!!
frick you, your trash series will always be dead, your soulless engine will never produce anything of substance or soul, you will always be a failure for making one of the worst fps series alongside CoD.
you haven't played enough shovelware 90s fps
metadoom is epic
>emulation
>played it back in the day on my brother's 486 desktop

This is how I spot people who aren't REAL "gamers"

I completely forgot about this shit.. Might be time to reinstall.
why does /vr/ delete shitpost threads except nintendo/treasure/5th gen ones?
Because mods make those.
if you deleted 5th gen war bait threads, /vr/ would go from DEAD to ULTRA DEAD 64
Yep, Black Ops 2 now that was a game
EVERY GAME I DON'T LIKE IS EUROJANK SEGA SYSTEM TRASHURE DADSHIT!!!
legit worse board than /LULZ/
Halo and FEAR chads own /vr/ now
This was the first FPS I ever played. I wish I could find a playable version of it these days...
whats the name of that game? I think that's the one I've been looking for for years now.
Bad Toys 3D
Thanks.
Glad to help
Warcraft 2 killed Warcraft.
Where are the fricking roads that promote deeper base building? Where are the walls? What, you can build ANYWHERE? Then what the frick is the point of a base?
And don't even get me started on why orcs suddenly have ogres and trolls, fricking ridiculous.
>Warcraft 2 killed Warcraft
No... WoW killed Warcraft. WC2 is good.
This is /vr/ homosexual
Wrong board
We are on Ganker, smartass.
Did you even look for even half a second at what thread you entered? Has your autism finally overtaken your brain and gained sentience?
This thread is on Ganker... are you moronic? I know its a "/vr/ thread" but we're still on Ganker... so your point is fricking moronic.
Old games shit on everything new in terms of depth, novelty, ingenuity. New games aren't even trying to be good, they just do the same old formulaic thing and put $3 million lipstick over it and people buy that shit because they're moronic
Ganker is incapable of parodying /vr/ because to do that you'd actually have to discuss a videogame
