Why can't other developers compete with Nintendo?

>critics opinion don't count!
>your opinion doesn't count!
>game developers opinion don't count!
>nothing counts!

Why are you like this?

>TotK is a visual novel

LMFAOO holy shit. Biblical levels of seethe and cope.

Anon, that's ACfag. He's not seething or coping. He's just incredibly retarded.

Apparently it is, if the story being taken out offends the fandom so much. Whatever happened to the amazing gameplay you guys spoke of? But if I say that I skipped all the story parts because they're terrible, and I think they should be removed, suddenly I've removed the soul from the game?

You're the guys arguing that TLOU is a masterpiece because it lectures you about bigot sandwiches and gender politics.

You're replying to hours old posts as if they're still here

Wow you got here fast, thought you would reply to more hours old posts before getting here.

First time encountering ACfag?

No opinions count, but your own

who is eveyone?

Who should actually be counted as having a legitimate opinion? Retarded movie lovers who look at a non-playable cutscene and think "wow this is great, I wish there was more of this"

If the webm here

I don't. I just hate when a game is flaunted as perfect, but it has disgusting trash holding it back. Like webm related, something you'd see in a snoy movie.

doesn't immediately send you into a frothing disgust and rage, you hate video games.

>Who doesn't like it? Who isn't impressed by it? Who isn't having fun playing it? Who?
Me. And since I'm not a disgusting movie lover, my opinion matters more than anyone else. Find me a fellow gameplay enthusiast who actually loves video games, and then we'll talk.

You will never enjoy a video game. All you care about is the cinematic reward at the end, telling you how to feel and what to think, because the idea of making your own fun is boring to you. When you claim that TOTK is about making your own fun, you don't understand the true meaning of that. At the end of the day you don't care about playing the game, you just want the story to pat you on the back for being a good slave to the plot and NPCs. I can enjoy Pong because it doesn't tell me what to think. It doesn't dictate politics to me, or tell me to vote for a political party. It is true, unfettered freedom, something you will never be able to enjoy.

I pity those who cannot enjoy such freedom.

LOL Now in a year 2023 gamers are finally ready for NUTS AND BOLTS
Any person with a fucking brain doesn't like it. Because it's a shitty copy-pasted game for retarded children.
"Developer perspective" lol If you have nintendo-tier brainwashed audience and can ship a 16gb of reused assets for decade old hardware and people will eat it up what kind of "developer perspective" can even be there? It's unachievable for anybody else.

Me. It's just BOTW with a gimped physics building system glued to it.

>ask for opinion
>get opinion
>start screeching while claiming others are screeching
You not take your meds today?

But he is literally right? Read developers interviews. That's exactly what they did. They didn't even fucking programmed anything. HAVOC did everything for them already

I'm right here

It's 6/10.

No, worse than that. It's deranged schizos who demand Sony be seen as the pinnacle of gaming so they can pretend they have a "mature" hobby on the level of film. May of them have managed to dox themselves in incredibly retarded ways. It'd be funny if it wasn't so pathetic and they weren't so schizophrenic.

I simply love watching a cutscene that tells me the moon is red. I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.

>which could impact what decisions the player makes at that moment.
LMAO it only exist to tell you enemies are respawning. If the game doesn't need to remind you which button is jump then it also doesn't need you to tell you ten times about the moon. Also you can only skip it after 10 seconds have already played because it's actually a hidden load screen.

Except the game already has a enemies spawning from red smoke effect you see during the last battle where whole groups of enemies just appear out of it. Unlike you I actually finished both games.

>schizo
You have any arguments except projection tendie? Because I can actually play and finish a game without falling into cult practices like your lot.

>because it's actually a hidden load screen.
So you actually do understand it doesn't only exist to tell you enemies are respawning then.

so volvagia was zelda mom all along

I am playing it right now and looking at copypasted sky islands
You can literally see several copy-pasted islands on the screenshot and that's literally same fucking area LMAO. This shit is copy-pasted all over everywhere.
Everything I wrote is 100% true and factual.
None of you fags showed any arguments for anything.
Game is OBJECTIVELY a copy-pasted slop.

retard

yeah and nothing in ER even remotely was copypasted to this extent

are you retarded? TOTK reuses BOTW map TWICE. It reuses sky islands for every region SEVERAL times.
Most enemies are reused from BOTW. Most weapons and armor are reused from BOTW
ER is reusing some content from fucking ER, you total imbecile.

Not "everything" But shit TOTK does is totally unacceptable, especially for 70$
the fuck is "its own assets" 90% of assets are from BOTW.
ER is reusing its uniquely crafted assets. And it got a lot of shit for that when TOTK gets nothing for doing much worse.

Hm? I am expecting a lot more uniquely designed content from a 70$ game yes. Especially when it looks like a gamecube game. It's not an unreasonable expectation too.
>Do you inbreds understand architectural conformity?
Yes it is different from straight up copy/paste from this fucking game. Only uniquely crafter sky island is tutorial one and well it is "architecturally conform" for sure lmao. It has fuck all to do with all the other islands literally copy fucking pasted with same fucking bring green crystal to the shrine puzzle with the same fucking arena wit ha construct which is the same fucking boss reused how many times like 20? It's just garbage. How can anyone defend that and more importantly fucking WHY?

what's fun about it?
Do you consider doing same task 20 times as "fun"? lol
>Absolutely no one in their right minds will go out of there way to make everything a unique model with a unique texture let alone unique texture per UV square
nobody was even trying to make this argument you dumb fuck
Reusing some assets is a far cry from reusing 90% of the previous game (including shit like music and story) and asking 70$ for it

>I consider straping a rocket to a korok fun.
Sure it's fun first 5 times. What about other 100?
>You've been kvetching the entire thread about reused assets.
try using your brains sometimes cause launching koroks sure as fuck do not require brain usage
>>Anon doesn't know what a sequel is
>sad, truly truly sad.
Retard
>Then don't pay. It's really quite simple.
I didn't
But 10 million retards did

>It brings me joy every time I do it.
Something tells me your are lying or just autistic.
I actually don't even mind if people are enjoying it. That's not the point

are you retarded? TOTK reuses BOTW map TWICE. It reuses sky islands for every region SEVERAL times.
Most enemies are reused from BOTW. Most weapons and armor are reused from BOTW
ER is reusing some content from fucking ER, you total imbecile.

it also didn't cost 70$ and doesn't look like a gamecube game

this is true. I'm also playing the game, I enjoy it, but all that praise and 10/10 is just mental. It's fun game, but nothing amazing. Just like BOTW feels like the game is unfinished.

Where's the lie tho?

Like fucking what?

See? Here's the problem. I put a bunch of lists of problems game has.Yet when I ask you brainwashed retards do the same you literally CAN'T.
And you dumbass had the AUDACITY to say that I'm lying LOOOL
just kys

That's quite ironic

If you are asking this question you either 1) haven’t played the game past the tutorial or 2) have the Ganker mind virus and went into this awesome game looking to actively ignore fun content. The game piles great content on you. Everyone but Ganker can see it

I played enough of it and botw too. I am asking you fuckers who say how amazing it is without adding ANY examples to support your fucking position and NONE of you can.
Your biggest argument is "b-but I am having fun"
>have the Ganker mind virus and went into this awesome game looking to actively ignore fun content
Name me content I ignored I'll go do it right fucking now lmao game is currently running

What does it matter to you retard? Engage with the argument or fuck off
I dropped BOTW because it ran like shit on a fucking WiiU.
I intent to beat TOTK cause I'm actually playing it on the emulator with 60 fps so it's a much better experience. Shit doesn't tell me how many hours it was but I imagine something like 50+?
There's no winning here ANWYAY. It I played 5 hours you retards will say "you didn't play the game" if I beat it it will change to "why are u playing the game if u don't like it lol".
Most of this shit was obvious after 1 hour btw. I guess you need a bit more maybe like 10? to realize the sheer scope of copypasted content. That's if botw map wasn't enough for you. Which I gave them benefit of a doubt about btw they spent 6 years on this after all.

Lying retard.

I literally wrote you imbecile that I played at least 50 hours of TOTK
Like are you actually this retarded?

I didn't fucking drop it immediately retard. I finished 3 divine beasts etc. Who fucking CARES anyway? I watched streams too and saw the rest of the game. But do I actually need to do any of that when they copy pasted the whole fucking MAP? And reused all the armor and enemies?
Why are you even ASKING this instead of DEMONSTRATING how it wasn't actually copied?
You people are amazingly fucking stupid

how is it relevant to copy pasted content?
Everything is copypasted in this game not only content from BOTW

If you are asking this question you either 1) haven’t played the game past the tutorial or 2) have the Ganker mind virus and went into this awesome game looking to actively ignore fun content. The game piles great content on you. Everyone but Ganker can see it

I'll end your entire existence you tendie fuck! I'll torture your soul for all eternity.

NTA but you hate video games because you care more about the story than the actual gameplay.

If you loved the game, you would despise the non-gameplay moments. When I say "get rid of the cutscenes and dialogue and story" you say "yes, that's a great suggestion, I hate these things and want more gameplay".

Get rid of the cutscenes and dialogue and story. Now you say.....

>How dumb can you be to not understand how they made it?

Low IQ.

Take something like the Rewind ability. Moronic low IQ shitters like you will say "its just like Sands Of Time!".

No it is not. Sands Of Time is just rewinding time. TotK Rewind sends an isolated object back through time while everything else plays out in real time. Take a moment out your fartsniffing life to contemplate how mind-bogglingly difficult it would be to actually design and code this mechanic, and then apply it to an already dynamic interactive world of a hundred different interconnected chemistry systems and have it work with so much polish.

And that is just ONE tiny aspect of TotK without even touching on the overarching game design.

You ridiculous tweens understand NOTHING about video games and thats why you are so BAFFLED by the level of praise a game like TotK gets from actual educated adults.

Why do you love cinematic experiences so much?

See

>Simple change of fucking xyz coordinates.

Just stop you fucking moron, you understand nothing about coding. No developer will ever attempt it.

>Literally any developer can code this shit in something like UE5 in probably hours.
>No developer will attempt to copy apste their game 2 times and slap shitty lego on top of it simply because they will get DESTROYED for doing it. Only nitnendo can get away with this because of brain dead retards like you.

>"if i keep posting "articles" screenshot, people won't noticed i'm dumb and have no personality"
Aw, but we knew that from the fact that you are a ninchud. Which one of them are you?

[...]

I do. TOTK didn't fix any glaring issues from BOTW and copy pasted the entire map again, but now everything is dark. The build thing is simply not appealing at all and the menu hopping is disgusting.

Guys, I'm gonna save you some trouble right now. The person you're arguing with is a literal cultist. I'm not exxaggerating, they will defend anything just because Nintendo did it. I even mindbroke him into defending TLOU and God of War, simply because he needed metacritic to always be right so he could use it in his console war. When pointing out that alot of snoy games also got high scores, he had to immediately backtrack and say "w-well those games are good too, j-just not as good as BOTW". Hel, he even did this with Elden Ring, saying that it was objectively trash that only
Fromtrannies liked. but then the metacritic score came out, and he immediately damage controlled by saying "u-um, it's a good game I guess".

He's the most pathetic person on this entire website. Your time is better spent elsewhere than arguing with this... poor excuse for a person.

You know, you should probably stop re-using the same images and repeating the same phrases, because the archive sees everything. 🙂

>right
Seek help ACfag. TotK utterly shits all of over your favourite game. We all saw this coming years ago. You have no way to cope.

>B-BUT YOU'RE THE LAUGHING STOCK
I care about good gameplay. You will literally scream in despair if someone spoils a video game story for you. I laugh and continue playing as usual. You will decry other companies for being unoriginal and evil, but will shit on games like Pizza Tower if they're even remotely similar to games you played in the past. But if they're not similar, like Armored Core 6, you also hate on them because they don't have the Nintendo seal of approval.

No need to also be in this one. Hell, I'll let you get the last word in after my post. Watch closely Ganker. This guy will be unable to respond to my post and call me a loser or a retard or whatever.

No doubt about that... But the problem is that general public is also somehow stupid enough to not see TOTK for what it is.
Like... I can understand yeah all the funny tik-tok videos are fun and all. But it's literally ultra copy-pasted 70$ game that looks like it's from 2005. In 2023... that's fucking insane

For Nintendo of course it’s a miracle

>copying botw 2 times
I keep seeing this but as far as I can tell they reused the basic geography while reworking most of what is in that geography only once.

oh ok you're retarded I'll keep in mind to ignore any posts I see making that claim. thanks for the clarification

>debate me
I am not your handler anon, find someone else to entertain you

are you retarded? every physics object has an array of vectors that gets updated on whatever physics tick, old cords get pushed out as new cords come in and when the object isn't in motion, the array isn't touched

when you use recall, it just runs through the cords in reverse

>Simple change of fucking xyz coordinates
That's super simple... if it was ONE instance. We're talking every instance in a specified region whether you can see it or not. It then needs to keep recording it's position and last position for the recording then when rewind occurs it needs to do that FOR EVERY INSTACE AFFECTED. How do you not understand THAT'S that impressive part. Same as the Garry's Mod comparisons, yes it's doing the same thing BUT it's doing that in a game where that wasn't the only thing it was built for.
The impressive part is getting a game with all those systems working cohesively in a fully functional open world with a fully functional physics system, climbing system, cooking system, attack systems with their own mechanics when the comparison games only do one of the mechanics in question.
The impressive part is that the game isn't suffering nearly as heavily as it should from the multitude of calculations that are taking place as the game runs.

>you mean it needs to effect the parented object and all objects attached to eachother?
Are you pretending to be retarded on purpose?
>it just needs to affect the parented object and everything attached to it
It also needs to reattach things, reassign old variables, all at the same time and cover this for 30 seconds.
Seriously you think it's so easy to do why isn't it a standard in most games?
We're talking keeping the values for 900 or so frames(at 30fps) for every object in your general vicinity(about one region of distance)
You want to do the math for how many instances you're keeping track of for 900 frames with minimal loss to performance.
> how few objects are actually in motion at the same time during general gameplay
Their data is still being stored and rewritten for those 900 frames

>We're talking keeping the values for 900 or so frames(at 30fps) for every object in your general vicinity(about one region of distance)
>You want to do the math for how many instances you're keeping track of for 900 frames with minimal loss to performance.
>> how few objects are actually in motion at the same time during general gameplay
>Their data is still being stored and rewritten for those 900 frames
that's not how anything works

It was already explained to you in simple terms. It's just a fucking array attached to each object. This is not some miracle of programming lmao

>send whatever item you have back 300 frames without storing the data.
see the end of

>Are you pretending to be retarded on purpose?
Are you?
>It also needs to reattach things, reassign old variables, all at the same time and cover this for 30 seconds.
No it doesn't. It doesn't store the state of connected objects. If an object is disconnected and then recalled, it doesn't reweld itself, you idiot. And there is no state to store beyond the cords.

>Seriously you think it's so easy to do why isn't it a standard in most games?
Because it's a niche mechanic.

>We're talking keeping the values for 900 or so frames(at 30fps) for every object in your general vicinity
It's a non-issue. We're only dealing with cords which are small, maybe 12 bytes in total. They could have also employed simple tricks like storing every nth physics tick and then just interpolating between the cords which would substantially cut down on memory usage. And again, when the object is not in motion, nothing is ever written. It's a totally manageable problem, even on gimped switch hardware.

>Are you pretending to be retarded on purpose?

>game engine has all this information by default it doesn't need to record ANYTHING
And with that one statement there's no point reading further because you're a fucking retard pretending to be a game dev or know shit about game dev.
moron that shit has to be saved in an array of classes since other variables beyond the transform is being checked as well. It knows it's LAST position but that's updated every frame even if it isn't moving since you'll often use this shit to check if something HAS MOVED in the last frame vs the current frame.
You won't have 900 frames worth unless you're storing that shit yourself.
That alone proves you know nothing about coding thinking the physics just magically remember where they were 900 frames ago without the programmer intentionally saving the needed data in a variable, in this case an array of classes since other vars need to be stored and saved as well.
Stop pretending to know anything you brainless sped.

>You won't have 900 frames worth unless you're storing that shit yourself.
The rewind ability lasts 20 seconds so it would be 600 frames actually, since the game runs at 30 fps capped.
>knows it's LAST position but that's updated every frame even if it isn't moving since you'll often use this shit to check if something HAS MOVED in the last frame vs the current frame.
>moron that shit has to be saved in an array of classes since other variables beyond the transform is being checked as well. It knows it's LAST position but that's updated every frame even if it isn't moving since you'll often use this shit to check if something HAS MOVED in the last frame vs the current frame.
That's not some "programming wizardry" really. A data grid containing 600 frames of a 3D object's movement and rotation would only take up about 49.4 KB, and each moving instance in the game world will hold that data grid. Textures, geometry, animations, and sounds take up WAY more than 49KB. Updating the data grid is a very simple First In Last Out operation, and that takes up practically zero processing power, even on a CPU as primitive as the 6502 from a Commodore 64. CPUs are extremely quick at shifting data around, and you're only updating 3 int numbers at a time and shift the rest in this case.
It's a kind of fun little gimmick, but there's absolutely nothing out of this world about TotK's reverse feature.

>you're a fucking retard pretending to be a game dev or know shit about game dev
Not that anon, but I'm a game dev.

>game engine has all this information by default it doesn't need to record ANYTHING
And anyway, that anon's right that you practically don't need a line of code to record anything to do this unless you're an engine developer, and it's very plausible that it's an inherent function of this engine that was used as a debugging tool. Either way, it's an extremely simple function that in no way justifies the $70 price tag.

>Either way, it's an extremely simple function that in no way justifies the $70 price tag.
NTA but you act as if the rewind function is the only thing that's good and new about TOTK. You're being heavily disingenuous to prove a point.

>NTA but you act as if the rewind function is the only thing that's good and new about TOTK.
The other ones being new DLC tier areas, and gluing sticks together. Yeah totally worth 6 years of wait and $69.99 plus tip.

Way to prove my point. My fault for expecting a nice conversation

Can you actually show me a real game developer for once?

>Those people work for Platinum and Bioware.

they didn't make a good game in a fucking decade.
Any competent game makes them look bad LMAO
>Why should anyone listen to a silly pleb incel on Ganker like you? Screeching is all you have.
What do you even mean by that? I'm just asking to show what a real developer who knows how code a fucking ingame system and not this 2 actual useless retards thinks and you are failing to deliver

Uuuh how does this stupid article support your argument exactly?
Yoshida is playing zelda... like me and everybody fucking else.
So??

Yoshida didn't say any of this tho???
Are you alright dude?

>Yes TotK is one of my favourite video games.
didn't ask

>Your salty tears sustain me.
kek, most pathetic individual on this board. First and only and final post in this thread, by the way. Get a life, holy shit.

>Vampire the Masquarade Bloodlines is better

Kek go play that shit then instead of seething in Zelda threads. You can't help yourself.

bro you can't even PLAY Zelda and have a different experience. Literally EVERY element of the game is copypasted at least 3 times.
That reminded me... uuh why shrines without puzzles even a thing? They are literally waste your time with 2 LONG loadings, 1 half unskippable cutscene and whatever time it takes you to walk from one end to other... multiply it for at least 20 times... It's SO FUCKING BAD. They should've respawn chest and upgrade point right there outside instead. piece of shit fucking game

when was the 2nd time?

The Depths were a different map. They were copy-pasted from themselves yes but it wasn't just the BOTW map.

>Go fucking check for yourself
I did, it's not the same

>Do you understand what Z axis is?
I do and it's clearly not what's being used in the Depths

and you must be blind

>retard korok forest literally fucking copypasted 1 to 1
not even close
>Did you even play the game?
yes which is evidently more than you did
>Go get both maps with your next retarded post and show how "they are not the same" fucking map
so you can claim it's photoshopped? no thanks gay

if that really makes you feel better, sure

>nice arguments retards
right back at you, retard.

>we're not playing in a vacuum says the man who claims the game has nothing but the building
lol

Engaging world and interesting quests. The depths is truly fun as fuck to explore, as is the rest of the game’s content. I’m having an absolute blast (and I don’t even care about the vehicle building stuff which Ganker seems to think is the whole game, proving they haven’t played the game for more than 3 hours)

Sure seems like you didn’t play the game

Go play the game, then you can come back and discuss it.

No I'm asking what's impressive about totk? Banjo's world is devoid of content, but it's quite densely populated with meaningless objects. Fallout 4 added a whole new world, new NPCs and stories, new mechanics, and new settlement building feature to Skyrim's engine, but it was no GOTY material. TotK did much less to improve upon its predecessor, but it's suddenly GOTY now. What's up with that?

>what's impressive about totk
that it has a very open ended building system to use to explore the open world, running on a fischer price leapfrog

>I don't like the things in the game therefore the world is empty
ok

I think he means outside the building the game sucked ass. Like you could build in banjo but the game isn’t fun. Totk is the opposite. Building is a tiny part of this game, which has a ton of well thought out and fun content

have you considered people are just having fun making things and want to share their creations with others?

>nothing ever happens
>nobody ever enjoys anything ever

Yes, Nintendo of all people needs a fucking pointlessly elaborate astroturfed advertising campaign.

wow guys i think i found the reason why people hate this game now. ITS THE SONY FANS
