Why play a video game if you just want to watch a movie?
- Konnstann 8y agoI will literally do that for video games I don't care to play, watch the cutscene movie on youtube.
- thatoneuser 8y agoBecause there are a lot of people who haven't spent the years we have gaming and want to be able to beat modern games?
- RandomInteger4 8y agoYou don't need to spend years gaming to beat a game. Gaming skill doesn't work like that. You practice the specific game you want to play. Spend a few hours and voila, you learn. It's literally that simple. The problem is that games journalists don't want to play games. They want to get paid to write, and they were only able to get a job writing about video games. That's literally the only reason this is a topic. That and the fact that journalists as an industry have sussed out ways to increase monetization, and one such way that is particularly effective is the "rage bait" method, whereby you infuriate, or "nerd snipe" a particular demographic that feels invested in defending something to the point of sharing the thing they feel is attacking them.
