Sony hate thread

[GeorgeFloydFentanylStash]

every fucking game NEEDS to have some fucking asshole talking to you every single moment?

The more assholes the merrier.

Annoying Null in the MATHI thread supposedly.

Disagreeing with Null, even rudely (which is never smart, just pragmatically speaking) isn't generally "risky" on the Farms (which is something I respect him for, as tempting as it must be to just ban raging assholes or even just people who disagree (like the Resetera fags love to do)) but deliberately trolling him (especially in that thread) is just begging for the banhammer.

Ah well. As the Demotivational posters love to point out, "it's possible your entire reason to exist is to serve as an example to others."

One thing also where modern gaming but where especially Sony also lost the plot is the whole player character to player dissonance. Regardless of the story being told the player is inserted into the game through the characters they control. Yes Kratos is a character, but he is also the player which is why nu Kratos doesn't land. Sure there is a spectrum to this, something like Gordon Freeman who is nothing but the player to OG Kratos which has a backstory and the like but here is the thing. In God of War you do badass things, Kratos is treated as a badass, so as the player you feel badass. There is very little baggage there. The cutscenes back this up as you go from point A to point B. It isnt trying to be like Schindlers List. No you are doing badass things and badass things happen.


Devs have always tried to fuck with this formula. Hell in the other thread we brought up Spec Ops the Line awhile ago which IMO completely fucks this up. Even back then a game no one played Pariah, it does the plot twist that you were the bad guy the whole time. This doesnt land because you arent doing evil/bad shit during the rest of the game. It works for the Postal games, hell it works for Far Cry 2. But it doesnt work there and modern Sony keeps doing that shit, especially with TLOU 2 and it just doesnt jive with what you are doing as the player.

The inherent problem with the "The main character is a bad person and you aren't supposed to cheer for him" style of writing is that no one wants to be made to feel like the bad guy. Having Kratos literally scream at a cooler version of himself to showcase his character development just makes him sound like a pussy whose desperate for people to like him.

Metal Gear Solid, Spec Ops the line, The Last of Us, they all try to guilt you for doing what they tell you to do.

Damn fine taste you got there, dude. Fatekeeper is awesome and I've enjoyed what I've played (All of the currently available early access content.) of it.

You shut the fuck up, I like the talking rat, he's just the right amount of assholish to be funny.

i thought that rat was going to be a NAGGER but he shuts up as soon as you're out of the tutorial

The game isn't anywhere near finished yet, which is why he mostly shuts up after the tutorial.

The few times i talked to Null is always getting me lectured respectfully like a child to learn something.

Which isn't bad. But some people just don't like it.

Pro tip, just pretend to be a BBW and der Feeder will show his genteel side .

God of War II (2007) female character designs vs. God of War: Laufey (2026). This is 19 years apart, what the fuck happen?
