>sci-fi game>there's an extremely advanced civilization that disappeared for unknown reasons leaving behind only ruins and puzzling relicsKINO
unless it's horizons, then they fuck it up badlyscientific ruins are pointless if your main character is a retard and you spend 70% of the time talking
>>733627017We wuz kangs trope. I hate it desu.
>>733627017This is pretty much how America will be in 50 years. Competency crisis and what not.
>>733627017>sci-fi game>there's an extremely advanced civilization that disappeared for specific reasons, those being 'nuking each other into primordial dust,' leaving behind only hyper advanced tech reverse engineered by idiots and weapons of mass destructioni will now buy your game
>>733627242When America falls and gets replaced by Neo-India, guess what, the technology will not be lost. It's a stupid trope.
>>733627156Naked dogeza for me right fucking now.
>>733627289On a long enough timescale Indians will create India.
>>733627156>he doesn't know that earth use to be cover in giant trees that turns into mountains
>>733627289The scant amount of trains we have will eradicate any large indian population here.
Yeah the concept of a whole advanced spacefaring civ vanishing is kind of absurdEspecially if its something REALLY retarded like 'they all caught a disease and died' (lol Subnautica)
That's how you end up with terrible little rat birds running around
>>733627391everything is consistent with thousands of years of soil buildup?
>>733627523>they canonically could take a human dickhot
>>733627573wow, this very thoughtful post clearly describes exactly what the issue was and where. thanks anon
>>733627289>the technology will not be lostDude even Europeans with their knowledge lost the secrets to Roman concrete for a thousand years, you think the nation of people who think it’s holy to bathe in human waste water and give birth to 3 headed babies can do better?
>>733627289indians have an average IQ of 74. if they take over we'll be lucky if the concept of numbers or written language survive
>>733627747it looks to be on a floodplain and there was probably at least 100 thousand years of timelapse based on the glacier. completely reasonable
>>733627326Saw this on Ancient Aliens yesterday lol, it was buried under 3 meters of dirt and it most likely didn't happen naturally. Teotihuacan is an interesting place.
>>733627568Fucking the seagull rats is not recommended
>>733628109That small outcrop is higher than in the first image, a clear indication of soil buildup with subsequent erosion as the floodplain and path of the river changes naturally over time
>>733628162seagull rats being pampered in exchange of taking a human dick is like winning a lottery ticket to them. Its either that or live in filth
>>733627156Those are glaciers dude and they move
like zelda
>>733628450Its clearly soil, not rockYou seem to be having a pretty apocalyptic melty considering how utterly inconsequential this is, have you considered seeking a formal diagnosis for your low-functioning autism?
>>733628557Holy shit anon, put on your weighted blanket and have a nappy time before you shit yourself
>>733627017I love this more in fantasy games than scifi games for some reason. >The fake MMORPG in .hack// is actually set in the post apocalyptic year of 3525 >Heman is actually set post apocalyptic and got all their robot scifi shit from a magic time portal castle or aliens or the last civilization >The Sky Castle in Final Fantasy 1 is a space station from the last civilization >Zelda does it somehow I forget
>>733627017Genshin Impact thread?
>>733628450>You can't build up rock.Then where do mountains come from, wiseguy?
>>733627156>open plains>glaciers that completely consume the tree line>trees that are, at a minimum, millions of years old>mountain in the background has visibly eroded and lowered>river visible next to pyramid-mountainThere has been possibly hundreds of millions of years of development between images
>>733628629Isnt it plate tectonics and shit
>>733628629continents bashing into each other and/or volcanoes
>>733627156It's how those mountains formed though
>>733627901I'm in canada I can't see the word india without screaming inside my head and laughing like the fucking joker now
>>733628720Internet user since mid 90s hereUsing periods in internet speech comes across as pedantic and faggy
>>733627326Shit must've been wild to be a dark ages peasant and unearthing Roman and Greek ruins
>>733628605If you dig those games and/or mass effect then read this nowYou think you're reading sci-fi until the very end when it turns out to be fantasy
>>733627156not every mountain needs to be big burly rock alp
>>733628853People who try to police how others type are fags Fag
>>733627289South Africa (and parts of Michigan) are already losing their plumbing from crackers just 50-60 years ago
>>733628852Thanks I'll check it out.
>>733628786I'm a 1337 ha4x0r and u got epic pwned
>>733628853>Nobody who bothers to capitalize their sentences just forgets to end them properly.Capitalisation happens when you start a sentence and periods happen when you want to start a new one from an existing one. Naturally you don't bother to add a period on the last sentence of a post
>>733628786That's cool Grandpa. Tell us about the before time.Just kidding, please die.
>>733628921Wow how did crackers last decades? The ones I ear get soggy when I put them in my soup.
>the advanced civilization was defeated by a completely new threat from another galaxy or part of the universe>they controlled probably thousands of planets and obviously mastered space travel >also naturally practiced eugenics every citizen should naturally be in peak physical condition >flashforward to thousands or millions of years later and humanity or some plucky human ragtag group defeats this ancient evil >when the massive interstellar empire with perfect warriors couldn’t Does this bother anyone else when it happens?
>>733628986You will never own a home :)You will never have sex
>>733627017So overdone but will never NOT be kino
>>733629032Depends how it is used. I am fond of the "we do it by committing an unspeakable atrocity that nobody would have ever dared to stoop to"
>>733629032If they wanted to win they should have looked for the excalibur box :^)
>>733629032No, perfect warriors means they can't do different things from each other. If you read books you'd understand basic plot points like this.
>>733629052This is the difference between the autistic "abide by all rules at all times regardless" and the well adjusted "flexibly adopt only those guidelines that are useful for the application"
>>733627378>'they all caught a disease and died'Stargate did this better by having some of them die, some of them go to live with primitive man, and some ascending to a higher plane of existence.
>>733629261The reason you capitalise is so that you can tell whether text on a new line is the result of wrap-around or of newline+new sentence
>>733627242I mean, not if they kick out all the pedophiles, eugenicists and oligarchs and elect some people who actually serve their country and not Russia, Israel, Saudi-Arabia, Qatar and their own wallets.America could be a lovely place, I imagine, if they disbanded the Republican Party and got rid of the compromised parts of the Democratic Party.
>>733629515Only if you fullscreen like a retard instead of having it off the the side while you are doing something else
>>733629727That new voyager game got me jonesing
>>733628852Read only the first chapters of this. MC was just a LN protagonist it was really boring.
>>733629898I accept your concession
>>733629898what does that even mean
>>733627156explain the noah's ark burial them
>>733630008coulda fooled me
>>733627156It's artistic liberty you stupid fucking autist
>>733629032Is that anything from anything, because it just sounds like your typical HFY greentext.
Be honest with me guys, is he on to something? I dunno about all that shit with aliens or "advanced" civilizations, but I think its folly to think civilization didn't peak and trough throughout the ages, shit we see it with the Romans now. Who's to say we didn't have metal age civs pre or during the ice age?
today i learned if you don't fullscreen 4channel you are an "inbred neanderthal"oh yeah this is better
>>733630227He makes archeologists seethe a little too much to be completely wrong.
>>733627017I'm tired of this desu, show me the super cool advanced civilization at its peak.
>>733629916>MC was just a LN protagonist it was really boringThat gets rolled into the plot in a weirdly vidya way, actual spoilers below:That girl teela who randomly jumps on his cock in the first chapter turns out to be the result of a eugenic breeding program by the puppeteers. They've identified luck as a unique asset of the human race and subtly influenced our politics over the centuries so that breeding is done by lottery and only the lucky 'winners' get to reproduce. The goal is specifically to produce a girlfriend for the protagonist of this exact quest, going to the ringworld. they manage to get there mostly thanks to her genetically boosted good fortune exactly as the puppeteers intended.but she's so lucky that when they get to the planet she meets a much better guy than louis wu and decides to just stay there with him :) bye louisreally underrated fantasy book that gets passed off as 'hard scifi'
>>733629832>>733630331>one posts on 4chan while a TV show plays in the background>the other tells him to buy two monitorsYou are both ADHD subhumans, stop shitting up the thread.
>>733627156proof?
>>733629032The physical body is just another tool. The will of the mind is necessary to do great things. Just look at our own world.
>>733630484Banter involves clever, witty remarks going back and forth, saying, "Uh, I'm a retarded troll actually" isn't banter.
>>733628629plate tectonics.
>>733630331>>733630484>>733630630etci'm with the other guy, this is just being retarded in a "please just stop you're embarrassing" kind of way
>>733629015that's the lost secret my dude
>>733629898Holy shit you are stupid
>>733630248It's not like the artist explicitly said it happened naturally, it could've been done by the people trying to cover it up or a bit of both.
>>733629032Sometimes it's written in a way where the problem was unable to be solved before they succumbed and/or where their last efforts were to create a small chance for their descendants, and the plucky group is essentially just completing their work centuries/millenia down the line
>>733627017I like images like this. Post more
>>733629032Maybe those more advanced threats are in decline before humanity finishes them off.
>>733630227The amount of seethe he generates makes me think he might be hitting some notes right. I'm sure the more fantastical stuff is just done to generate buzz but it's undeniable that there are some weird anachronistic sites like Gobleki Tepe that simply isn't being investigated
>>733630850Yes but there are people in all three panels so it could've been them.
>>733629032Though the overall execution could have been better, I liked how in Mass Effect humanity and the rest of the current races only stood any kind of chance at all against the Reapers because of the cumulative efforts of the civilizations that came before.
>>733629032It depends on how it's done. If it's just "WOW THE POWER OF DETERMINATION AND FRIENDSHIP" that humanity inexplicably has over precursor species, yeah it's retarded. A dude with a space MP5 shouldn't be inexplicably better than the precursors with erasure cannons. But if humanity is basically getting a decayed evil to fight, an opportunity left to them that the precusors planned ahead for, some special circumstance that can actually justify it, it can be pretty good when done right.
>>733631116Maybe they only want to hide it.
>>733627152Horizon games were boring as shit Their ruins boring as fuck and copy pasted stale There was no point scouring them for broken coffee mugs because the rewards were shit God what shit games
>>733627242Good, whities are too retarded to keep with times.

>>733631278>Glass Natural geological glass forms when silica-rich molten rock (magma) or silica sand cools extremely rapidly, preventing crystal growth and creating an amorphous, non-crystalline solid. Primarily produced through volcanic activity (obsidian), it also forms via lightning strikes (fulgurites), meteorite impacts (tektites), or coal fire combustion.
>>733631416This, he should've used 4tranx to randomize the filename like us oldtroons.
>>733631416How do you recognize a reddit filename?
>>733628786That's you thinking grammar makes someone haughty.
>>733631593lol You got mad because you got called out
>melty of this magnitude over a filename
>>733631593>w-well of course I know all about reddit I wouldn't want to be called a loser by normansGo back.

>>733632264You mean "every space game ever"
>>733632417>Generally people who careWhere is this "generally" coming from? Did you go around asking every fucking retard who ever used this site whether or not they punctuate their sentences? I promise you most people do not fucking care so long as the point gets across, jesus christ I thought grammar nazis went extinct, you're like a genetic throwback, where the hell did you come from?
>>733632509>where the hell did you come from?I think he came from Tylenol
>>733631279Screen addiction will intellectually stump entire populations, and thats exactly what the upper class want
>>733632643Ok, spectrum
>>733632028I do as well as the twitter filename format but that doesn't mean the picture was found there and not using some search engine so I don't sperg out about it.
>>733632643No you haven't. You post like a faggot who came here during 2014 with gamergate and assimilated into the raging faggot culture of the time. Twelve years later and you're still rocking the unreasonably and improbably angry asshole channer phase when anybody else with a fraction of emotional maturity figured out these things didn't matter enough to have a spastic fit about and just became a normal anon in 6 months
>>733632860Nobody is going to bother changing the filename to avoid triggering some autist.
>>733633026I take it back, you came here in 2016.
>>733632860Counterpoint, I leave the filenames because not only is it less work but it makes fags screech while pretending they're not seething. It was even funnier back when there was that tumblr 4chan war and half of what you downloaded from Google had Tumblr in the filename. Good times
>>733633090It's also easy bumps.

>>733631278To be fair, the golden rule of any board on 4chan is they are much better at having discussions about off topic material. Plus, the 50 threads pushing culture war shit and shitting on Nintendo get boring fast.>>733627017I did like how a main plot point of Breath of the Wild was digging up said ancient tech to use it to defeat evil, only for evil to take over the tech and kill almost everyone.
>there's an extremely advanced civilization that disappeared for unknown reasons leaving behind only ruins and puzzling relicsWe have that at home already. It's pretty clear by the way he builds modern man is puzzled at why cities and public works should be beautiful.
>>733634518If you want to use real examples you can also just point at any african country where the whites left
>>733630227Some of these theories make too much sense.
>>733634518Woah, easy with the anti-capitalist sentiment, commie.
>>733630227Nah. It's fucking retarded.
>>733627693Issue with roman concrete wasn't that it was some secret recipe. It was material they used to make it. It's Lime mortar with Pozzolana. Main source of Pozzolana is volcanic ash. European used Lime mortar. But they didn't have volcanic ash. This is why it took to invention Portland cement for concrete to become big. You no longer needed exotic material. You could make it in oven.
>>733634518Buildings are utilitarian and unadorned due to a shift in architectural schools in the wake of the second world war where rapid and efficient reconstruction was more important than style. Primarily for Europe obviously, but it spread everywhere else pretty quickly. Modern man lives less in the shadow of an advanced civilisation that disappeared and more in a state of post-apocalypse, because the first half of the 20th century was an absolute shitshow and we'll be suffering the aftershocks for another hundred years.Also glass and steel structures as designed today are better at letting sunlight into a building, which is beneficial to human physiology. They didn't know that yet when they were building shit out of stone with tiny windows, but then, people back in those days actually went outside a lot more so it worked out anyway.>>733630227He's retarded, advanced civilisation would be obvious in the geological record. He says the shit he says because he's not familiar with fields that would prove his theories wrong, and waves off attempts to prove him wrong as conspiracy like a schizophrenic rather than any real academic. The truth is that real life is pretty boring in comparison to anything we can imagine, would an ancient civ more advanced than ours be awesome? Fuck yeah it would, but we wouldn't have overlooked something like that when we can pretty much piece together the planet's history going back hundreds of millions of years just by looking at layers of rock and the shit caught in it.>what if they covered it upLike I said, schizophrenia. There's literally no reason or incentive to cover that shit up, like there would be no reason to make people believe the Earth is round when it's actually flat.
