so bamt have you found a game to play yet
Previously, you just barely did: https://archived.moe/bant/thread/21505138/
So far best games out of not very popular:
1. Metaphor Refantazio - gayest game in existence, ideal roid tranny treatment, /pol/ primal desire perfected
2. Elin, Elona - basically acid
3. Trails of Cold Steel series something - Final Fantasy, but under imageboard influence
4. Spark The electric nigger - platformer but fun

When I said Spark is fun, it's because it is, Sulfur isn't fun. Spark was made by a literal geek manchild who loved Sonic way too much, he knows what does it mean to go fast through and through, he probably has thousands of hours in Sonic games and maybe abuses amphetamines. By playing Sonic for countless hours, he has developed an understanding, a vision on how such a game should be made, and you can literally see it, it is good.
On the other hand Sulfur was made by people who read game design books. They lack vision, they just plan according to what they read in game design books. Usually it's hard to put a finger on what's wrong with some indie games like Sulfur overall. It appears to be some echo of the worst part of AAA in them, restrained, distilled "fun".
Rogue-like genre works best with VR. Go VR niggers, VR people will appreciate any polished slop. Or join Minecraft modding scene and stop polluting PC/Console scene

Not to mention, what are you doing in this predominantly male community? Do you like to be surrounded by men? You gay or something?
Hey, babt, look, I found a literal faggot
You can't make the game feel good just according to what you read in game design books, because you can't consciously compute everything that is required, there is too much. Just like humans perceive each others body language, we also perceive media, like games, movies, even novels. A huge part of it's perception and it's creation is intuitive. Intuition is a subconscious calculation of what you know, if you don't know shit, your intuition is almost always wrong. On the other hand knowers can read people like open books and almost see the future. See, we now know the reason why things in Sulfur look so disconnected, because unfortunately you are a faggot

Thanks anon, this is by far the most decent suggestion. We must kiss right now before our darkest instincts prevail.
>>21577758
Oh hey, forgot to mention, if you were wondering why there is such a huge gap in talent even among the most hard working. You see someone like Hideo Kojima, if he plays your game for an hour, he will know more actually relevant stuff about your game than you remember about it starting from times it was just a concept, stuff that you are not even aware about. Kojima would spent an hour for what you would spend a thousand, how come? He is by nature a noooticer, you are by nature a consoomer. If I tell you right now "all you have to do to be as good as Kojima is to pay attention to details", it will barely work. It can work for some people, and if you would be the one who can do it, we could already see a glimpse of it at the least. Kojima does so naturally, effortlessly, his brain wants work, his brain needs those details. If he was asked to stop noooticing he would die of boredom the next moment.
You on the other hand would need to torture yourself by reminders all the time. Do you realize it now?
And memory, if your memory is not exceptional enough, you can't go back to previous experiences for further analysis, which will also hold you back.
It is the most complex medium so far in history which requires the most talent in history to properly execute.
Fucking Unity mobile slop niggers now dare transitioning back to PC. Literally this Sulfur was built like a professional slop mobile game, it's just spam, not a game. PerfectRandom.

Have you prepared to cargo cult the future overwhelming success of Elin? Since you lack mental capacity to truly comprehend things, you will have to cargo cult it, flood the market with 2d slop full of disconnected recycled ideas and "a twist", so it's "fun".
Even though I hope it is very clear on how much disgust I have for the likes of you, I am not entirely sure if you can be influenced properly, to a degree you have to be a psychopath to produce shitty games and present them as a great choice to buy.

I played Millenia and it's crap, bad optimisation (i had like 10 seconds freezes on 32gb ram and ryzen 5 5600) and just garbage mechanics. Zephon looks cool, nice gameplay, but i'm more interested in historical games. Why there almost none realistic 4x strats like EU4 or millenia but good, civs are boring and not realistic. I want modern politics, so i guess i have to go back to stellaris. EU4 is boring too now, i want more freedom in ideologies, alt history and modern era.

Anon why are you trolling? Millennia is turn based! How can a turn based game even freeze for the whole total of 10 seconds on a modern PC?
>>
Unless Millennia was built in Unity.
To think of it I never heard of an optimized 4x strategy game. It's like games like that are being built by special kind of autist, people who program like tech priests, they are excited by sheer amount of code and it's complexity.
If they don't use one of late versions of Unity with a hefty revenue fee, can probably decompile and see how obnoxious it is on the inside.

It can, and Unity is absolutely fine for it. I now remember, this game is a visual novel.
Here is the theme of robot-priest running on TempleOs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMBvUL3SIsE
The game touches the topic of webcam biz, so I'd bet it's either from Russia or Ukraine. The geimu is soul, but could be better.

I don't exactly remember how did the story of dystopian gf influence me if at all. The game is not necessarily about the author exhausting his hate for women, it could just be a story for anon audience. One thing I remember is how cheaper slop food left you with less energy and health, and you had to go for higher quality food whenever you could. Just like Deus Ex(a game for kids, if they are not retarded) was trying to convince you that smoking and drinking is actually fucking retarded.
And also, that rude Vietnamese who deleted himself from the thread, are you still around? I think visual novels will work for me if it's detective stories somewhat grounded in reality. I don't want to read shitty walls of text about apeshit happenings, for that there is EDF, such happenings have to be seen in action, not read about.

Well even at this rate most indies are really-really dumb. First what a talented programmer does is he makes a game, and we are lucky if it's not on Steam. Many indie games on Steam are so bad, even the creators themselves wouldn't play it. And quite often best programmers don't play enough games themselves, so they can't make a good game. Something trivial like acceleration/deceleration during a jump that feels good is too hard for them. A lot of cargoculting occurs, Minecraft clones without identity, it can be better technically or visually, but there is nothing that would make people say yeah, Minecraft was Doom of voxel games, this is Half Life of voxel games.
And then there are pretty capable indies who suffer from cancerous AAA influence. They were basically never real.
And then there is the complexity of the whole creation process. Gamedev is considered extremely high risk because of how complex it is, so AAA even stopped experimenting almost entirely.
>>21610669
Maybe it's because of the fundamental difference between the markets. Every fan hated Diablo mobile game with micro transactions, but you can bet it made most of it's money in China. Their market is just too huge, they don't have to learn another language to bother exporting games as an indie.
But with India surely it's different, their domestic market lacks PC users, they absolutely will have to export their games.
In 30 years from now even elders will be gaming, it will be as normal and widespread as it was watching TV 30 years ago. Not playing games at all will be a marginal position. And thanks to overall diversity of genres, there is quite a bit of niches to occupy for a true Indian.

Violence back then was so common, so it looked old. But today its a memoryholed classics.
Punisher is the ultimate turbo Mongolian Chud. Chuds always talk about "this is what they took from you". That's entire Punisher identity, his family was taken from him. I remember it vividly, how after the game came out, billions of Chuds rose up and interrogated a lot of people, then they had families.
I'd actually do what Punisher does in that game to PerfectRandom people, all of them(also to this >>21611185 guy, no reason). Their faces look very punchable, not in the usual meaning of gay muscle head punchable. It's like they were born to take an unnecessary amount of space, same goes for their "products" like Sulfur. Their photos lack genuine dynamic, they have nothing to say, show, demonstrate. Posers, in so many ways. Protojeets. Not even real.
Them less likely being criminals wouldn't stop me. Not being a criminal in no way should be an achievement, it should be the norm.
