Not laziness. I am decrying the fact that I CAN'T FIND THEM, BECAUSE I HAVE NO ####ING IDEA WHERE TO LOOK!!
There's only 8 gazillion choices out there, and 99.99 percent of them hype the SHIT.
It isn't LAZY to not be able to sort thru 8 gazillion mother####ing choices, ya know! It's called not having the time to slog thru all the SHIT to get to what I want...and wanting what I want to be easier to find.
I'm really pissed at you for accusing me of laziness in the manner of Generation Y...it's totally apples to oranges!
And Generation Y sucks, big time.

: There are places that exist to hype games like
: this- try the "other games"
: sections that crop up in any game community.
: I first heard about The Dark Spire on
: Hardcore Gaming 101's forums- there tend to
: be a decent number of "hey look at this
: cool obscure thing" posts in their
: forums. Most other message boards I've been
: involved with- particularly communities
: formed around more obscure games- have
: eventually sprouted offshoots like that.
:
: I'm sure that one of the eight billion
: gaming review blogs on the 'net focuses on
: games that you're interested in.
:
: If I might be blunt, for someone who was
: decrying the "laziness" of
: "Generation Y" below, you seem to
: be awfully upset that you have to find
: things that you're interested in rather than
: having them handed to you.

: Well, again, A FEW POINTERS MIGHT HELP!!
: Like
: maybe some positive advertising for these
: games?? A LITTLE hype?? No, they get
: totally overshadowed and forgotten in the
: hype that the crappy, shitty games get.
:
: Go make a video game that's really good, and
: you probably won't get shit for it. But go
: make a crappy game with lousy graphics, a
: rotten, stupid non-existent plot, and theme
: it after some recent movie or some stupid
: celebrity icon....and it'll get the hell
: hyped out of it, and you'll make big money
: for a shit product. Or, name it Final
: Fantasy (pick a number) and it'll kick ass,
: too, even if it totally sucks.
:
: Strider, you remember, you recommended Dark
: Spire to me? I loved the game!! Loved it!!
: but you also took the time to review it,
: let me know what it was like, and it
: appealed to me.
:
: THE ####ING MEDIA NEVER PAYS ANY GODDAM
: ATTENTION TO GAMES LIKE THAT!!
:
: All I'm asking for is some equal time for
: the kind of games I like, and a little less
: hype on the crap games, okay?

: There are lots and lots of games released
: every year, even if you don't want to go
: into the realms of emulation. I can't help
: but find the idea that you really seriously
: can't find a single one that you like to be
: totally ridiculous.
:
: Given what you've mentioned liking here
: before, have you tried the two Etrian
: Odyssey games? Any of the Shin Megami Tensei
: games (Nocturne and the 'main' series seems
: like it would be most up your alley, but you
: might like the various sub-series too)? I'd
: hesitantly even recommend Wizardry 8 on the
: PC if you happen to come across it on a $10
: shovelware rack.
:
: I mean, yeah, I guess my response basically
: boils down to 'look harder'- but
: unfortunately, it's the fate of someone who
: likes obscure and unpopular games to need to
: hunt a little more aggressively. Take a look
: through Atlus' latest releases, or maybe
: even GOG (although their RPG selection
: looks kind of mediocre at a glance).

: See, that's just the thing. They release so
: much CRAP that they have no TIME to make the
: GOOD STUFF!! that is what is pissing me
: off, really. That they don't make more of
: the kind of games THAT I LIKE. and the
: reason they don't is because they are too
: busy cranking out crap.

: Just out of curiosity, what games exactly
: can you "not get hold of"?
:
: It's one thing to want more games of a
: certain type, but it's another thing
: entirely to be livid that games of another
: type are being released.
