So, recently I had an idea for a /vr/ user-curated list of good games for some systems so people can just be redirected to it whenever there's a new thread saying "I got [X Console] what games should I get for it?" and plus just out of my own curiosity as to any more obscure games people may like.
Has someone already tried to do something similar to this or is it just dumb in general?

Wow dude nobody has ever thought to do that before. You're so clever!

I’d be interested for sure. Kinda surprises me there isn’t one already.

>> No.6431963

>>6431937
I have a list of about 30ish games per major console that I made by combining other lists I found online, and weeding out ones I didn't like or were redundant. I made it because I couldn't find anyone else who had done so.

>>6431963
Well, huh. I didn't think there was a list but here we are. 30ish games was what I was thinking could be a good ballpark per major console so I guess it's already sorted? Do you happen to have it on hand to send?

>> No.6431996

>>6431937
Fuck that. I'm writing a list of every game that's even vaguely fun

>>6431937
That's an awesome idea. Now I don't even have to go to youtube to have youtube tell me what to think.

>> No.6432041

There was a wiki, /v/'s recommended games. And everytime someone links it, the requestor whines "but it has games on the list I don't like, can't I get some ACTUAL recommendations?!" So you can make a list, but there is no promise anyone will use it, or the people asking for recommendations will accept it.

I made a list of links to romsets on the internet archive on the depot's #rom-requests channel. Still have an endless flood of people asking for roms that are in these sets, since most people asking for shit are too lazy to do a basic google search, much less read 1-2 sentences that have the answer they seek. Doesn't matter what you do, lazy fucks gonna lazy fuck. Why bother looking when you can just "RECOMMEND ME GAMES /VR/!" and get answers?

It might work if people ate bans for making request threads outside of /wsr/, but that doesn't happen. It might work if people ate bans for spoonfeeding when there's already resources in the sticky, but that doesn't happen. It's not a bad idea, it's just not going to work the way you hope it will.

Oh, I see. Yeah that makes sense. I honestly forgot about that /v/ wiki, been a long time since anyone has talked about it but I think it's still operating at least in some capacity. I suppose that explains why no one has really ever bothered, it'd be an exercise in futility.

It's a side-scroller. Unique in music, art, and gameplay mechanics.

Just be sure to play it on speakers and not a sound system. It's VERY bass heavy and will rattle your windows.

Shit idea. Here's why:

You're redirecting people off-site. Pretty sure that's against the rules.
You're promoting flyover posting for help/advice over actual discussion and exchange of experiences, turning a board into Yahoo Answers. You're also promoting spoonfeeding (and all the arrogant entitlement that often comes with it) over self-research.
Some people will claim they're more "/vr/" than others because they share their _opinions_ on an off-site resource, not actually on the board.
There are a million lists of games like that already.

>> No.6437103

>>6435049
But all those things are what make it a great idea
>You're redirecting people off-site
No one who belongs here will leave because of this. The more retarded, arrogant, entitled zoomers this pulls away from /vr/ the better
>promoting spoonfeeding
Telling zoomers to fuck off and stop asking to be spoonfed doesn't work unless they have someplace to fuck off to. If shillanon has a place for them to go and be spoonfed they'll have no reason to shitpost here.

Rather than complaining you should be encouraging OP to start discords for all the other bullshit zoomers like to discuss here. And absolutely promote them as being "more /vr/". This plays to the zoomers insecurities and desperate need to belong and be special in more than an olympics way.
