!g*mers this isn't even about the "woke SJW feminists are trying to take away my pornstar waifus " KotakuinAction spergery, this is about how a game from 9 years ago looks and plays better than something made in 2024!, I dislike to explicitly say "this is why I only play Japanese games! " or "this is why Nihon is superior to woke gaijin " weeabooism because it implies that these games are good simply because they are Japanese or non-Western, which is not what I am talking about.
I am seriously not seeing a good future in Western games, nor can I cite off the top of my head any upcoming Western game that I am excited for, when compared with so much great and promising AA stuff coming out of Japan, again, not because they are inherently Japanese, but because they are not the same fricking live service always online MCU/Adult Swim/Borderlands writing bullshit written by MovieBob-esque Twitter addicts and #RESISTANCE girlboss white foids who think they're funny by using the same repetitive tropes over and over for years.
The next Deus Ex getting cancelled, PAYDAY 3 being a failure, Starfield being mediocre, Volition dying, and all of the industry layoffs were the final nail in the coffin for me, now the only three Westoid games that I am aware are coming and I am somewhat interested in are the Witcher sequel, whatever Cyberpunk sequel comes out, and GTA 6 (which is the McDonalds of vidya so it is guaranteed to make billions even if it turns out to suck), and they will still take quite a while to release.
people who were passionate and talented made some good stuff company gets big company produces safe slop without understanding what made them good
idk I never played any of the uuge AAA stuff except GTAV even if they were good
in fact I'm not even much of a g*mer I only play a few things and most of them are 5+ years old anyway
point is indie games or something
people with passion making things but none of that is happening at any of these husks of a studio corrupted from the inside by people who hate games, hate the IPs, and especially hate the fans.
Frick this competitive skin gambling bs, I prefer the old Counter Strike games where you have access to an infinite amount of user-created custom mods and maps, without all of the overwhelming UI puke and complex bureaucracy to even play the fricking game.
Tbh, most Japanese games aren't that good, it's just that only the good ones get a western release.
Agreed, when I refer to good Japanese games, I mean stuff like Yakuza, Tekken, Guilty Gear, Soulsborne, and Resident Evil, not generic gacha waifu weebshit #71863
Especially if your complain is wokeshit, GG ain't it.
Plenty of good western games have been released recently, you just haven't been paying attention, probs cuz your weeb butt was cooming to CGI asainoids.
CS always had bureaucracy if you wanted to play 10-mans. Valve just streamlined it. It's not like cs mm is really that serious anyway.
Most game developers, especially western, are focused on multiplayer games nowadays. It's simply more profitable. That's why AAA western single-player games have been lagging behind.
Anyway, Japan is about to complete the switch over to PC, so soon even Japan will be focused mostly on home multiplayer that was traditionally filled by arcades.
I have not played God of Soy Ragnarok and the new BIPOC Spiderman thing, even though they are very woke and their storylines are total cringe, they still look very fun to play and spend time on.
I always wondered if these people just refuse to take a dump while wearing these outfits in case they get shit smeared all over the bit that touches their butthole. Maybe they're just really thorough wipers but that can just replace the shit stains with blood.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 and Phantom Fury look fun, but most of the good western games are in the indie market.

Did you just miss the release of CS2?
Tbh, most Japanese games aren't that good, it's just that only the good ones get a western release.

CS2, this one is pretty self-explanatory
But a lot of games these days are pretty mid, especially due to horrible trends like Hero-Shooters Thank God we still have CS.
You gotta realize though, The West just cares more about MP games than SP games, and that's a good thing. Nips making the switch to shooters too.

CS2 seems exactly like csgo but now my buy binds and net_graph 3 doesn't work anymore.

If Western games were just woke, that would be one thing. The problem is that they're woke and bad.
