Cigarettes need to make a comeback. Another thing the fricking Communists are trying to take away from us.
Also Misato = bestgril and idk maybe OP can play the weird N64 game.
Maybe a better way of asking “what video game is either held up by the community as a shining example of what the medium can aspire to, or else denigrated as pretentious slop?” I think a lot of games probably fit into that category, so I’m not sure that it’s a great comparison.
>Cigarettes need to make a comeback
not for 10 bucks a pack they dont
i quit when i realized i was dropping 300 a month on smokes
literally cheaper to smoke weed instead

Came here to post this. Xenogears is what Eva tried to be and failed miserably. Probably because the creator himself said it was all just meant to be cool and have no deeper meaning, unlike xenogears.
>xenogears is what Eva tried to be
You have this totally backwards, in fact if the budget had allowed for it, xenogears would be closer to Eva than any other game in history but it didn't and thus failed miserably but evangelion is flawless and the only game close enough to it was xenogears it's too bad it failed thanks to MUH budget
Nah I have it right. Xenogears did the Eva story 100% better >dude I am scared of robots >why? >just cause lmao
Meanwhile in xenogears >dude I am scared of robots >why? >when I tried piloting one to save my friends I accidently killed them all
Right from the fricking start it already starts doing the plotline WAY better. In gears you have an actual fricking reason why the protag is acting like such a little b***h and he eventually stands up and learns from his mistakes unlike Eva where he has no reason to be scared and acts like a little b***h until the last 5 mins. Gears did every plot point in Eva the way it was meant to be.
>dude I am scared of robots
It literally namedrops Hedgehog's Dillemma (fear of unstoppable pain trying to connect to people with sincerity and love), you fricking moron.
In fact, End of Evangelion is literally everyone but Asuka and Shinji is a pussy
>Hedgehog's Dillemma
Made up problems people learn to deal with when they are five fricking years old. Grow a pair. Thats why Eva fricking sucks. >WAAAAAHHHHHHHHH I have a perfect life BUT OMG i need to talk with someone else for five mins!??!?!!?!?!?!? ILL KILL MYSELF INSTEAD
Wow what great writing.
I saw it at an import game store when I was a kid and I didn’t even know what Eva was. I thought it looked awesome!
Then I grew up, watched the anime, and looked up some gameplay on youtube. It’s probably worth passing on except as a curio in Evangelion history.

Anno like ayliums, Anno no like father.
Anno really really like boobies.
There, you now understand Neon Genesis Evangelion.

it doesn't, really. i binged through to episode 9 or so one night, went to sleep and never finished it. it's not bad, just okay.
also doesn't even apply to the damn thread since OP was asking for a video game

they hate misato for that
they hate shinji for not being gay
they hate asuka and rei for being underage
they hate eva because its anime but they like it because its popular to like it
Xenogears or Planescape:Torment. The former in terms of direct inspiration and themes, the latter in terms of reputation and influence. I'd like to say that Ultima 6 or 7 is in that spot, but even though the Ultima titles have had a greater influence on western RPGs and have led directly to the present it is rare to see someone hold up either game as a must play masterpiece in the current era. You probably weren't actually hoping for genuine discussion, though

Metal Gear Solid,people to think the plot and characters are deepeer than they actually are ad both Ano ad Kojima are pretentious homosexuals with a god complex
it's kids in robots without all the whining and pretension while still having an amazing story. it's also one of the best justifications for the existence of the video game medium. you couldn't tell its story any other way without losing a lot of what makes it so good
Is there even one canon shot of this drunk b***h in panties? It really bothers me that she's built up to be this big bawd, but we don't even get to see her in panties. I like panties.

Call of Duty franchise
CoD1, 2 and MW1 were unironically good games, but they went to shit very quickly after that
daemon x machina
had giant robots but thinks I care about the story
god i want to frick misato so bad
I already did.
who's the cuck? the guy who fricks first or the guy who fricks last?
The guy who fricks last, why do you ask?
so if you have a gf and i frick her, im the cuck?
he's the cuck if he expects to frick her again after you
She sucked my dick first, you're literally making out with my cum homosexual
ok but i fricked her and now she doesn't want to frick you anymore, how do we solve this conundrum?
actually i fricked her first
You frick each other, naturally.
ok so, im fricking him and he is fricking misato, who's the cuck in this situation?
She will always have a part of anon inside her, he's part of her personality now. Unless you pump and dump her, you are the cuck.
Anyone who doesn't control their woman completely from puberty until death

Cigarettes are disgusting low T cope. Literally only trashy poor fricks smoke.

completely false
You'll never be cool.

The only thing I remember from him was him putting a microchip into Misako’s pussy during sex.

Yeah but the ending was a total mess, which is a major problem eva doesn’t really have

FFVII complete with shitty modernized sequel/reboot
Persona 3
The Last of Us 2
Xenogears
Xenogears obviously.
Has anyone played this?
Yeah I emulated it. It's kinda shitty honestly but I still enjoyed it because I liked the show
I saw it at an import game store when I was a kid and I didn’t even know what Eva was. I thought it looked awesome!
Then I grew up, watched the anime, and looked up some gameplay on youtube. It’s probably worth passing on except as a curio in Evangelion history.
I did. Kinda agree with the other anon. I think it's badass, but I'm biased as a fan

There, you now understand Neon Genesis Evangelion.
There is no story to understand in DS unlike Eva
Anno likes his father
>Anno does (not) like his Father
ftfy.
>(Game) is the Dark Souls of (Genre)
>(Anime) is the Evangelion of (Genre)
I think we have our answer.
>was totally fresh and changed the medium when it was released
do evagays really believe this shit?
Sonny Boy
when does this snoozefest become interesting?
You have no soul
it doesn't, really. i binged through to episode 9 or so one night, went to sleep and never finished it. it's not bad, just okay.

thanks for saving me time,i watched to episode 4 and i dropped it
FF7
This is the Evangelion of anime (with a videogame source)
i want to have hardcore brutal sex with asuka
Reminder that if you didn't like the Rebuilds you're a sub-human moron.
>Mari
Opinion discarded.
O MY RUBBER 3DCG
but no one liked the rebuilds we all collectively felt that sunk cost fallacy
Reminder that if you don't like the Rebuilds NOW, you're a subhuman moron. 3.0+1.0 single-handedly saved that dumpster fire.
Is this the anime thread!?

What's the Asuka VS Rei debate of video games?
For some reason my first thought was Zelda girls
Do you really need to ask?
who are these characters and what is roxas doing with that ridiculous sword in the background?
imagine your 15 again hormones raging and your dad puts you in the same house as a 30 year old childless female whos body is also raging to have kids
Xenogears, this was settled 20 years ago. They even ran out of budget at the end like Eva.
Ok so no one is going to say tbh2?
i really need to complete that one.
>director's very first work is their best
I used to say that too when I was younger to sound more like a hipster but nah, Eva is better.
Eva and diebuster are both better
Still like them all :3
>game company's very first work is their best and most profitable
Is it true that zoomers and twittards hate misato because she wanted to sex shinji?
they hate misato for that
they hate shinji for not being gay
they hate asuka and rei for being underage
they hate eva because its anime but they like it because its popular to like it
Misato should've molested Shinji right then and there. What a shame.
What's the Me consensually filling Asuka with my seed and her giving birth to our children as we live as a happy married couple of video games?

not xenogears because xenogears was actually good
God, I would give ANYTHING to be 14 again and be molested by a hot older woman. ANYTHING!
13 sentinels, except it's way better than eva
How so? I've a passing interest and a friend's wanted me to play it for years, but I haven't gotten around to it yet
it's kids in robots without all the whining and pretension while still having an amazing story. it's also one of the best justifications for the existence of the video game medium. you couldn't tell its story any other way without losing a lot of what makes it so good
I see. Sounds kinda neat
Nothing about eva was pretentious. It was very straight forward. I am surprised it is still filtering people to this day.
it's not pretentious in a "these concepts are too hard to grasp" way, it's pretentious in a "im 14 and this is deep" way
It's good although not better than Eva but few things are.
>not better than Eva but few things are.

The rebuilds were such fricking trash.
After you learn why Anno did them it makes sense.
He's really based.
