Those are low key games. DS was sold as a huge AAA sony title with tons of hype. These big titles are expected to have more action and to be more violent.
I don't think games like DS should be marketed to the BRO-crowd. Which is how you get a reaction that's not warranted.
DS is a niche style game, unfortunately marketed to dude-bros who are like UPS THE GAME LULZ.
The rest of us are like...omg UPS the game..its amazing. Which it is.
low key games? Are you serious? Are you aware how huge Sims is?
Low key huge. It's not like gamespot has 50 articles when a sim game launches, now do they?
Also those games are well known and not advertised to the dude bro gamer.
Let's also not forget that the dude-bro crowd and "core gamers" routinely shit on non-violent games like The Sims, casual games, and mobile games. So it should come as no surprise that the same dude-bro crowd is now shitting on a non-violent game like DS. They love violent action games, and hate games that are non-violent (except for sports games, obviously).
Exactly. Add Minecraft to the list.
Heck, MGS only got a pass because it gave you the OPTION to be violent.
Which I never preferred. DS is full of so much positive energy. Reconnection, helping eachother, non violent means of getting things done. It's also about the quiet moments to our destination as well as the tense ones when BT's or Mules appear.
The game is remarkable. Unless you're a dude bro gamer...it's not.
