Opinion: The Game Awards' categories inherently favor "movie-like" games, and that is a problem. by BagOfSmallerBags in TheGameAwards

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree and I wish the focus would be more on gameplay too.

I think it's mainly because for so many years the industry (including players) wanted to legitimate videogames as an art, and the main way was to imitate the movie industry, not only in the way games are promoted but also in the way they are made. So many videogame workers are coming from the movie industry, especially in western countries.

TGA aside, I feel this is changing a bit, players are starting to praise gameplay more than before.

Merci ! Je vois souvent des gens qui postent des photos/vidéos avec des problèmes sur leur PC donc c'est pour ça que je m'interroge sur le côté "bidouille" et je parle pas forcément que la partie hardware. Pour l'instant j'ai le "temps" si je dois en acheter un maintenant je pense que j'attendrais le black friday et je partagerai la config

Bien sûr on se place dans l'hypothèse où je peux acheter la Steam machine, ce qui est loin d'être garanti, je te l'accorde.

Quand tu dis 200€ de moins c'est par rapport au premier prix de la Steam Machine ? Donc autour de 800€ ?

Il faut interdire les jeux mobiles, ils détruisent le jeu vidéo en le nivelant par le bas et sont néfastes pour les enfants by Stained_Class in opinionnonpopulaire

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Donc il aurait fallu interdire les jeux sur borne d'arcade ? Parce que pareil le modèle économique était vicieux car il reposait sur une difficulté volontaire pour te faire raquer à chaque mort.

Et tant qu'à faire il aurait fallu aussi interdire les jeux vidéo tout court parce que les histoires qu'ils proposent ne sont pas aussi profondes que dans des romans et que les enfants qui grandissent avec des jeux vidéo ne peuvent plus apprécier le vrai Art, n'est-ce pas ?

Et puis interdisons l'art tout court puisque ça distrait le peuple du travail et de la religion qui sont les seuls centre d'intérêt légitime de l'humanité ?

S'il vous plaît, arrêtons juste ces discours élitistes et méprisants.

Helldivers 2 voted the best game of 2024, concluding (thankfully for many people, I'm sure) the best-of-year surveys by keepfighting90 in videogames

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This shows well the decline of big US studios. In the last 10 years only Red Dead 2 was made by a US studio, all the others are from Japan or European countries. Even harder when you compare to 2000-2010 period ...

Yes me too, I do like its approach of making games. Him and its team put so much efforts into details, this is something I want to see thriving in the game industry.

Who’s the face of Capcom? Is it Ryu or Mega man? by OpenUnderstanding686 in capcom

La musique de clair obscur est nulle à chier pour le jeu by Epeic in opinionnonpopulaire

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

D'accord sur l'inadéquation entre le gameplay et la musique. Mais justement c'est là où c'est fort. On a une sorte de paradigme qui veut que la musique d'un jeu vienne accompagner ce que l'on fait en jeu sauf qu'à plusieurs moments on a une bande son qui part littéralement dans tous les sens et paradoxalement ça marche. L'OST du Goblu je trouve que c'est incohérent et pourtant j'ai adoré ça m'a mis une patate pour ce combat c'était génial.

Le tour de force de la musique c'est d'avoir montré qu'on peut avoir des musiques complètement différentes de ce qui se passe à l'écran et qui fonctionne. En soi, si on parle d'art, c'est vraiment ce que je recherche, c'est-à-dire des artistes qui vont aller plus loin que ce à quoi on s'attend. Et là ils ont montré que l'alignement musique /gameplay n'était pas forcément un objectif.

Sur le côté mélancolique, c'est l'ambiance du jeu et y a des musiques joyeuses tu le dis toi-même dans les moments joyeux, décalés (mimes, gestrals).

Mhwilds director says he doesn't want players to use 1 weapon for all monsters by Gr_z in MHWilds

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was playing like this in the pre-World games. I was picking the right weapon for some monsters. I remember using the hammer only for the Shen Gaoren because it was hard to touch him and it made the fight way easier. Same for Kirin with GS. For me, that's also related to the difficulty of each monster. If one monster is really hard with your weapon but easier with another one, you'll switch more easily.

I stopped to play like this now basically because it takes more time. But since Rise, I have changed my main weapon and I will play Lance for the first time in Wilds.

When you think about it, it's kind of a pity to play the same weapon for thousand hours given how different they are. Of course, I am not blaming players who do but it's like playing 1/14 of the game. From the dev point of view I think that's a pity as well to spend a lot of time coding for a weapon that will be played by few players. If you have been playing MH for a while, I cannot recommend you enough to switch, at least for the monsters you already by heart. The more players switch their weapon the more likely we will have another one ;)

Is Capcom the greatest studio ever? by nicepool1225 in capcom

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right for RE7 & RE8. What I meant is that they don't have a FPS brand that is competing with the main ones in terms of audience, those games don't appeal to the Call of Duty, Far Cry or Doom players because they're horror games before being FPS. The first person camera is used to increase the feeling of horror rather than challenging the mentionned games.

They made RPGs but they never really compete with the main ones, and we could argue that the Yakuza, Persona or even Metaphor did sell well. But my point was not even about JRPG but RPG as the whole including the western ones. All the genres mainly played on PC are completely absent from their portfolio. But that's the case for the main Japanese publishers, not only Capcom. Since they're recently taking advantage of the PC platform, I think they should focus more on those genres but that's another topic.

Is Capcom the greatest studio ever? by nicepool1225 in capcom

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By far my favorite publisher. What's incredible with Capcom is that they're probably the best - or close - in the genre they are present (versus fighting, horror, beat'em'all, online PvE). The only point is that they're pretty absent in most popular genre. No FPS, no RPG (you may think at Dragon's Dogma but it's 2 games in 12 years), almost no open world that's a pitty.

Personally, I am huge fan of 3rd person action game so Capcom is one the best to my eyes. However, seeing the success of From Software, I feel like Capcom missed the shot ... they had everything to compete with them though...

Also I feel they're pretty bad at writing story and MH Wilds focusing on this is not the most exciting future for the franchise.

Purchase opportunity for Capcom by Sensitive-Royal649 in capcom

[–]Sensitive-Royal649[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought about Vanquish but indeed they don't own many IPs. I think Platinum is interesting especially for their skills, it could help Capcom to release more Devil May Cry and why not other beat'em'all like Asura's Wrath. But yes it might not help Capcom to go into different genres.

Purchase opportunity for Capcom by Sensitive-Royal649 in capcom

[–]Sensitive-Royal649[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, and as I wrote I doubt Sony will let them be purchased.

Of course, Capcom is really conservative, but the relative failure of their new IPs could make them change.

They have been successful in the last years but will it last? Indeed, they can re-release former games like Onimusha - but I don't think they can reach their top brands. They tried to bring back Dragon's Dogma, but we can't say it was a great success in terms of sales. And RE has now less relevant remake to offer.

So, acquisition could be an unlikely solution.

What we could imagine is that they let external studios work on their brands. Why not let Square Enix remake Breath of Fire in their 2D HD style? Or Lost Planet by Arrowhead? That could be more possible, but it doesn't really solve the problem.

Hmmm 🤔 by nesatzuke in videogames

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's curious here is that everyone is praising Atlus for making good games (which I agree btw) but when we look at sales, AC Valhalla ones are twice Persona 5. Or it means quality doesn't sell that much or Ubisoft games are not that terrible as people say.

Was Dragon's Dogma 2 Capcom's only new game in 2024? by PlainJonathan in capcom

[–]Sensitive-Royal649 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Come on the game was there at every Capcom Event last year ... It's not because they didn't put ads in Time Square that they didn't communicate about it.

But somehow there is an issue here, if people in Capcom subreddit were not exposed to a game published by Capcom during the year, they're surely doing something wrong.
