Game journalism

> you dont have to finish that book
>you dont have to watch the whole movie
If you're not enjoying it, why would you finish it?
>you dont have to finish the whole meal
Yeah, don't over eat.

Here's how to actually enjoy games again:

1. Go in blind- no hype, no previews, no threads, etc.

2. Let it come to you. No guides, no checklists, nada. Stumble upon shit organically and move on

Why do these people blatantly hate video games so much?

Opinion pieces are a thing, people write them constantly. In this age of cheap storage space and cheaper bandwidth, it costs them nothing to write this article, toss it out there, and let the ad algorithm sort out its fate. You're surprised a tabloid has tabloid articles.

How many open world games have you 100%?

That is a double edge sword, because you can also get really shitty games that way.
But I kinda agree, I knew nothing about the NES and SNES games I played back in the day.
Hell my favorite PC game I just got it because a friend lent me a few games he had and ended up loving it

Yeah, imagine caring about trophies.

What is even the purpose of this article?

see

Generating clicks, thus generating ad revenue, thus keeping the publication going and the writer from starving. It uses the name of a hyped new release and it's a lot of fluff that's hard to find fault in.

>Yes, he's right, but why does he have to make an article about that?
Because GoT and other sub-par Ubisoft knock-off games like it tend to push people to play them much longer than they originally would have with outposts and towers and stuff.

I hate doing that. It makes me feel confused and neurotic that I'm missing shit.

opinions of a adhd twink

BUT MUH CHEEVIOS, I HAVE TO GET THEM ALL FOR MY GAMER CRED!
>dev's face when they put in a cheevo that you can't obtain after the first week, like "beat a dev in a pvp match" while marketing never logs in to those 'developer' accounts again after their job is done and it's time to move on to marketing next product

>this movie/book sucks, but i'll keep watching/reading it
I would rather have adhd than being brain dead.

I don't see the issue here?
Is this some sort of false flag to make people ignore actual complaints about journos?

>you have to collect every single feather in the game, otherwise you truly didn't play the game

Zig Forums, gaming is mainstream now, is it so difficult to understand?
Why you think movie games are so popular? Why people shit on games like melee or on speedrunners?

Let them do what they want, they are posers.

Also, regarding journalists, can you imagine getting a degree and ending up writing clickbait titles for an online outlet nobody reads? what a miserable life

And people are too retarded to realize that themselves and have to be told by some journo? What a world we live in.

BUT MUH TROPHIES.....

I think the op has OCD or something or perhaps he wrote the article and wants clicks?

it was procedurally generated

0. Google "[insert video game title] missables" first.

Trivial information is accumulating every second, preserved in all its triteness.

depends on why you think it's bad, you are probably too brainlet to understand what's even happening

same with breath of the wild

I think you need a terminal case of autism to even think of 100%ing koroks.

And?

>you are probably too brainlet to understand what's even happening
What are you talking about? What the fuck is your smooth brain typing? What "stop doing shit you don't enjoy" has to do with being a brainlet? Jesus christ, how do you survive with no brain?

Gaming "news" sites are glorified blogposts when they aren't talking about announcements, if they ever do as much as attempt to write a review, expect it to be talking about trivial bullshit instead of anything relating to the gameplay/development while it tries extremely hard to make you bask in all of its disingenuous and distracting glory.
