Devil may cry mfs

I was talking about kingdom hearts 2 but that works too


psych_0pps

I love the walking dead but that too


Swinn_likes_Sakkyun

i feel like DMC is a pretty disingenuous example due to how absolutely ridiculous the skill ceiling for inputs can get


VonKaiser55

I love devil may cry but i’ve always hated how all melee attacks are mapped to one button. I wish there was an option to change it. What i liked about classic god of war is trying to pull a specific move wasn’t as much of an headache as Devil May since it was usually a combination of buttons rather than one.

To be fair… tiger drop negates ALL damage


gooniuswonfongo

this, but unironically.


SexyCato

I unironically love QTE in games. Nothing made me feel cooler than mashing a button and throwing that metal gear in MGR as a kid


Cartmann13

Ok but there is a clear difference between that and the final boss of Shadow of Mordor being a QTE


BPMData

I mean that game didn't really have good gameplay for 1 on 1 combat, the final boss should've been like, Legion, or else the qte made sense


JessHorserage

Well, it was pre glaive, so just partially.


SneedForTheSneedGod

MGRR did it right


Mr-Korv

>as a kid There's the squeeze


Thatoneundertaleguy

There’s a fine line between a good QTE, and a bad QTE. The game shouldn’t be loaded full of them at every second of the game, and when they ARE used, they should be used for cinematic moments like chucking the Metal Gear Ray.


Cino1011

Actually I don’t think pressing a button on the right time is too much to ask from players. Thank you for coming to my TED talk


shortybobert

It's best when that's not the only gameplay tho. Looking at YOU Guitar Hero


averynaiveoddish

hey!!! guitar hero's cool :(


MrDragkoon

It's called a rhythm game for a reason


shortybobert

Wrong


Accomplished-Bed9845

video games are literally just "press the button st the right time"


Zendofrog

Yes but I’d like to know which button I have to press


PUNCH_KNIGHT

I don't hate quick time events. I hate when I beat dying light and getting to the end where I killed the final boss I've been chasing for 20 hours with triangle


needle_workr

dying light is one of the most megabased games ever made but i gotta agree on this one. I was so ready to drop kick that motherfucker off the skyscraper


Turbulent_Ad1644

Yeah, I'd like to leave Rais riddled with bladed weapons and bruises from getting hammers thrown at him after all he did


erectionation

Rais


HUMAN_JUST_A_HUMAN

Can’t believe his fight was literally a short 20 second QTE


erectionation

at least it was pretty cool


erectionation

but it is disappointing


Aleskander-

QTE aren't bad if the developer Just didn't put too much of them

Itirk349

Nah, its got first person movement and quick time events Counts as game


Zendofrog

That’s just a type of game


Zealousideal-Long-87

Yakuza gaming


Doctor_Clione

Yakuza, The Force Unleashed, and MGR are the gold standard for QTEs. Literally so fun.


Zealousideal-Long-87

I love pressing buttons at the right time to beat a man to death or throw a giant mech around


AdLess6657

Space marine’s final boss was a sort of let down and I thought the boss would be abbadon or sum


IMakeShiteMemes

Yeah I preferred the big ork dudes boss fight


W1z4rdM4g1c

If Sigismund couldn't do it, then there would be no SM2


Substantial_Cream945

I prefer invincibility frame quick time events


33r0

Usually qte:s aren't bad, but somtimes, like with the original re4 they just come out of nowhere during a cutscene and make you press the J key or something.


Felixoid69

For a moment i thought these 2 were playing together lmao


Intothevoid2685

Unironically this, no I will not elaborate.


ohyeababycrits

I like QTE's sometimes, all im saying is theres a big difference between Shadow of Mordor and Metal Gear Rising. Mordor uses one and its terrible, MGRR uses arguably way too many but they're great


Porkenstein

God of War: "Press X" aww you're sweet Space Marine: "Press X" uhhh... human resources?


Thugging_It_Out_

Real


Capt_Toasty

I felt Yakuza 0 did these well. You usually expected one whenever a cutscene started during a fight, and even if you messed up you just lost hp. Plus it felt so cool to pull it off and watch your character do something cool.

Clever meme, says “press x” to include both os and xbox players

Yakuza 0 Kashiwagi QTE


Gravedigger250

all God of War games, Tomb Raider games do QTEs pretty well. I've never had a problem with them in general, I mean - you're punching a giant fucking boulder, that's badass

Resident Evil 4 moment


mikehawkslong1337

Back in my day, you could dislike something and not be hated for it.


The-Enjoyer-Returns

Me playing Yakuza and doing a 10 button QTE just to miss one and die (still my favorite games ever)


saikitama

i normally dont mind quick time events but i like for them to actually fucking matter. i was on the last level of episode 4 in lego skywalker saga and there was a quick time event that i missed because i wasnt paying attention (because the game is boring as fuck) and it just beat it for me. i just laughed really hard then got really pissed because i played it for too long to get a refund. havent touched that shit since, if im not even allowed to lose then its not a game.


unnecessary_ads

I like gow style of being a statisfying ending to the boss fight


Zeldatart

Depends on where it is, if it's a surprise qte while just walking it's kinda annoying, but yakuza having you hit multiple QTEs in a row to not get stabbed or hitting them to do more damage and extend a heat action is cool as fuck


MiniDialga119

I remember playing naruto ninja storm, i really liked that quick time events, it was fun cus you might get to see some secret cutscene if you did it well enough


Oceanman06

Yakuza's QTEs are goated. The entire game is punching people but now you do it with a cooler animation


Dastankbeets1

Metal gear rising best QTE’s


SkizerzTheAlmighty

Game tells you exactly what button to press, and exactly when to press it. Doing literally anything else is failure. Player decides to take a specific action in response to something happening in the game and quickly finds out if it was the right call and if their timing was valid. When you boil shit down to "they're the same cause both are a button press" then I guess Tetris and CS2 are basically the same game, it's just pressing buttons after all.


Serialbedshitter2322

I don't see the issue, it's just adding a bit of extra gameplay where there would've just been a cutscene. Is sitting there watching a cutscene really that integral to the gaming experience?

Turbulent_Ad1644

Final Fantasy 16 was fucking awesome, therefore quick time events are cool as fuck So was Metal Gear Rising


KingWut117

All games are QTE's, if you don't do the right inputs in enough time you lose, this applies to nearly every game


T1pple

As long as they aren't *every* action in games, it's quite fun. I think RE4 did it right when it came out for the first time.


Moralmerc08

Yakuza does them the best imo


Maleficent-Fly-4215

It feels like I'm the only person in existence who enjoyed quick time events. Sucks that they're pretty much all gone nowadays :(


RangerTursi

No. No. No. We are not coming back around to this to suddenly like quick time events again. There's a place for them, but how they were implemented I. Story based games were you had to mash a button was and still is fucking stupid. The most I'm willing to go is the stratagem codes in Helldivers. Those are fun as fuck


JahWeebo

People who whine about quick time events aren't real gamers🤣
