Is he right Yas Forums?
I like games with a good story and I like games with good gameplay and someday I hope to find a game with both
It depends on the game
DOOM is a good example of a title where he's completely correct, all the retarded garbage Hugo vomited into Eternal was a detriment
Good story creates a world, good gameplay creates a level.
eh it's not necessary but context can massively improve both porn and gameplay
He was wrong at the time but he's not wrong anymore. Back in the 90s a feature length porn with a good roster good scenes AND a great story was a fucking godsend, and it still is today. But story in a modern game is like tits in a porn movie. If its there its artificial.
He was right at the time, but has grown more wrong over time. Nowadays if your game has a story you're generally expected to do it fairly well.
That depends. Sometimes story can make an experience more immersive. It depends on the type of game.
Back then it was right but over time as tech got better and better the games started being able to have immersive and interesting stories. Titles like Stanley Parable are 95% story and 5% gameplay and yet they are still good games. Very few games manage to nail both the plot and the gameplay. The only one that did this perfectly was Nier:Automata though few (like Bastion) got really close.
wrong
Carmack is the very definition of an autist, romero did all the creative shit. This man breathes numbers, he fucking researches AI as his day job.
nah
good talk though
No, on the contrary, John Carmack is a fucking retard.
Yes, if we are talking about games like Doom.
>Strafe jumping is an exploitable bug. Just because people have practiced hard to allow themselves to take advantage of it does not justify its existence. When I tried fixing the code so that it just didn’t work, I thought it changed the normal running movement in an unfortunate way.
>In the absence of powerups or level features (wind tunnels, jump pads, etc), the game characters are supposed to be badasses with big guns. Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sigourney Weaver don’t get down a hallway by hopping like a bunny rabbit.
>This is personal preference, but when I play online, I enjoy it more when people are running around dodging, rather than hopping.
>My personal preference just counts a lot. :-)
Reminder that John Carmack was 100% correct about bunnyhopping.
wow what a faggot
Porn is significantly better with a good story
Yes and storyfags are cancer who ruined games
Well, gameplay actually stagnated when the industry focused on the 'story'
what kind of porn do you think Carmack watches
exactly.
It depends on what kind of game you want to make I guess.
Contextualizing porn with a lot of sexual tension between characters can make it way hotter, in the same way that a game with a good story can amplify your enjoyment a lot.
Since when was Story expected to be in a porno?
That's how you can tell this guy still watches that shitty Big Corporation porn that doesn't resemble real sex at all and has a super weird fetish for watching the dick exaggerating the penetration like this is some sort of jackhammer.
BBW
He thinks that way because his games are literally tech demos.
he probably likes cuck porn and his wife some bbc. it's what I heard is the last fashion in californication
The actual plot isn't so important, so much as the setting and aesthetic of the world, Doom wouldn't feel right if it wasn't space marines killing demons
Depends on the genre
Depends on the game, but I don't think any game should remove the aspect of gameplay just for story.
This. For example a good h-game with a narrative context (even if it's a pretty dumb story) is way better than just the CG scenes on their own.
I at least want context in porn, even if it's just in the videos title
Do you ever have anything original to say, Billy?
no one expected porn to have a story at any point in time.
Kind of. If the game is not story focused dont try and force one in there. Tetris does not need some overarching story to be fun. That being said a good story can draw me into a new game while the gameplay can keep me there.
Porn with story is based though
I just busted a fat nut to that Last of Us video selfdrillingsms did
I was thinking something more autistic like delitization
your post makes absolutely no sense.
google it and thank me later
He's autistic and that's an autistic viewpoint. Whether he's right or wrong depends on if you're an autist too.
he's not an autist. he's a high-sucessful millionaire that probably fucked more women than you know your entire life, incel.
>he's not an autist
lol? Have you ever heard him speak? He's autistic as fuck.
Have you listened to a carmack gdc talk? He is most certainly autistic- just the successful kind
nope, I watched this interview linked in this thread and he seemed a normal high-iq guy. No way he looks like an austist. Have you ever known a real autist? I have.
Since forever until gonzo stuff started being made. Porno chic was a real thing in the 70s, and even up to the 90s all that was being made were features, stuff with a story and dialogue. The only reason the industry shifted to gonzo was because it's easier and cheaper to make, and despite this there are plenty of films still made that are features and not gonzo.
And nigger gonzo is no more real than features, they're both selling a fantasy, they both showcase positions to favour camera angles and not actually convenient/pleasurable fucking, all porn does this. Some amateur stuff doesn't, and it sucks as a result, because then you're just watching people fuck and not watching a show, which is literally the entire point of pornography.
Get some taste.
thots are not important to carmack
assburgers syndrome or high-functioning autistic syndrome. these retards think that everyone who they approve are like that.
I know we like to meme around here but there are autistic people who can actually function in society unlike the ones on Yas Forums
It's all conditional. A game with good gameplay can only benefit from having a good story that motivates the player's actions and makes them invested. A game can also have a good story but lackluster gameplay and still be worth experiencing. A tacked-on story will not elevate a game that was otherwise mediocre or bad into a good one, however.
I like games with enough story to make me think "oh that's pretty interesting, I wonder where that plot thread goes" and then go watch lore speculation videos on youtube.
top selling games of all time:
Minecraft
Grand Theft Auto V
Wii Sports
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds 60,000,000
Super Mario Bros.
Pokémon Red / Green / Blue / Yellow
Wii Fit and Wii Fit Plus
Mario Kart Wii
Wii Sports Resort
Mario Kart 8 / Deluxe
so yes, he is.
Now try explaining that to the vast majority of people who think Sex is like Porn and as a result have these ridiculous ideals about the male and female body type/anatomy and how long you can actually have sex for.
"Some Taste" has quite literally ruined the global perception of Sex for the sake of money.
i've known a handful, and he comes across to me like high functioning autistic.
Without a story and therefore 'artistic value' then pornography is legally obscene in the United States of America and thus illegal. Or at least it was. Yep. That's the sole reason there's the old "Oh no, I don't have money for the pizza delivery guy" plot.
This is also why old porn novels typically had forewords where they talk about how the following story is an exploration of taboo themes or has some sort of educational value. I don't have any super solid examples on me but here's a digital copy of an old porno foreword.
By the way, our grandpas were totally jerking it to incest porn. I swear on lustybooks about 75% of the books are about incest. Also, grandpappy liked his dicks huge and his girls underaged.
>maker of games with practically no storyline tries to defend games with no storylines
Wow! You're totally right user it all makes sense now.
If I only wanted gameplay i'd play chess.
this is just a retarded label invented by the world association of psychaitrists. they still don't know how to define the "disease" (also schizophrenia). there's a reason psychiatry is the nintendo of medicine and science.
most jewish post i've read on Yas Forums in at least a few hours
No, people being thick has ruined the global perception of sex, just like people being thick has ruined everything forever and always will. I didn't get laid until I was 22 and grew up watching porn, but even I could still tell the difference from a performance and reality. If someone saw Avengers in the cinema then walked out thinking that shit was real then you'd call him a retard, and the same applies with porn. It's entertainment, not a documentary, it's attractive people performing sex as an art-form. The industry is sure as shit not responsible for the galling lack of common sense that the populace displays on a regular basis.
He's from the era where that definitely was right. But today people have come to expect stories. Many only play games FOR the stories. Shit got weird.
Grandpa was also likely better read. Story becomes more deeply entangled in everything we do the more that we read and think. Modern generations are vapid, they don't read the classics and they lack a more thoughtful sensibility as a result. They just want to see meat rubbing on each other.
Story always should be there because you need context why are you doing all this shit. Even in the form of single paragraph.
He's not wrong tho.
Maybe back when gaming was still a relatively new entertainment industry. Normalfags love story though, even if it's dogshit like in Fallout 3 / Fallout 4
Fucking this
Imagine looking at an audiovisual artform like video games and demanding they keep story to the bare minimum. What an utter waste that would be.
What a fucking retard
