Gacha exists solely to deceive, to make spenders spend more because they misunderstand the odds, or even if they understand the odds, there's no way the gacha isn't rigged>GrindAlmost excusable, but not really, because it is often used as a vehicle to keep players engaged with repetitive & boring content for far longer than they'd normally be interested in the game>DLCabsolutely nothing wrong with this, especially if it's expansions and extra contentIt's only truly bad if it's "day 1 dlc" or dozens of shitty microscopic additions like cosmetics, p2w items or convenience boosters

Certified pervert Shinji Mikami is making a game with the Stellar Blade team. Is the new era of coomer games upon us?
I think we should all agree, we MUST agree, that in this era, things are oversexualized.It's just too much. It's annoyingly too much.Sexualization is good for fanservice. It shouldn't be the main point of any game. Any game that does this is coomerbait for dumb coomers who don't know any better.It's TIME to DEMAND games with less of this sex shit. It's TIME is to DEMAND decency. At least make the characters sorta sexy but not really soft porn material.Who's with me??
>>736225417The 7th console generation for all its faults was peak sexuality in media. It all went bad with the combo of feminism, alphabet sexuality, game of thrones and the death of ecchi. I am on the side of male gaze gooners because I'm not on the side of theocracy, or commie simps, or destruction of gender. I will die on the hill of 18+ gacha, h-games, and completely removing localization, even as my outlets become criminalized by the dinosaur politicians who have no respectability whatsoever.I will keep archives of old media as well as wild west AI to keep me sane as the puritans of all sides try to ruin society.
>>736225417>i lived through an era of puritan shit,and when was that exactly? the 30s? Cuz ever since the introduction of birth control, drugs sex and rock and roll in the 60s + womens liberation it's been nothing but slut it up town
>>736221797Assuming this is not an elaborated bait, why is sexual stuff bad, but violence in general is completely fine? If anything, you should be way more glad to see a man/woman's ass instead of seeing someone getting eviscerated. Unless you're a psycho, of course.
>>736226067Violence wasn't as bad before either, it was just grainy pixels and you were rarely shown blood in media. It wasn't until shit started to get hyper realistic around 2010s where I started to actually agree that violent and gory video games might cause mental problems for young people if they got exposed to it often enough.
>>736221797I draw a line to obscene levels of it, games like Dead or Alive, First Descendant, brown dust, nikke, Baldur's Gate 3 and all that shitEither shamelessly make a porn game, or don't try to "sneak it in"Leave it to modders and keep your hands and reputation clean.
This is the hero/protagonist of the Mega Man Star Force games, Geo Stelar. they're pretty fun games and their collection just released, you should play themdiscuss the series
“That didn’t happen.And if it did, it wasn’t that bad.And if it was, that’s not a big deal.And if it is, that’s not my fault.And if it was, I didn’t mean it.And if I did, you deserved it.” - pisscordfags until they get banned, then they demand a personal army. Fuck them and their hypocrisy.
>>736226778You can also get a fuck ton of them for chip trader fodder
>>736227058Yeah that's the only thing I've used them for so far.
>>736226330That's maybe like 10k sales. Definitely didn't sell as much as the BN collection.
This game is amazingIts literally guitar hero but you actually learn guitarHow did jewbisoft fuck it up so badly?
>>736227234Surprisingly good tone engine.Not good enough for professional use, I don't think it's physical modelling, but I expected way worse from vidya.
I am a complete amateur so I might be completely wrong but I feel like learning songs off tabs and shit like this doesnt REALLY teach you guitar. It teaches you how to play songs and builds up your fingers but you don't know anything you are playing. Its like being able to sing a song in a language you do not understand. I really like playing tabs and learning fingerstyle anime songs on acoustic but I feel like im making no progress because I dont know the theory behind any of it. Shits hard man.
>have to download the old version because devs made the new one live service online only with a $26 monthly fee>have to download 'custom songs' because song licenses expired so literally no songs>custom song site doesnt let you add songs that were officially released as dlc because thats piracy, but the thousands of other songs that you can import that havent had official releases are apparently not piracy>have to use a mod program to enable audio interfaces because the cable ubisoft made for the game is awful>have to pirate the 1500+ dlc songs because ubisoft doesnt support this game anymoreafter that the game is really good
>>736227473Tabs (and by extension Rocksmith) can teach you guitar but won't teach you how music works. I guess it's good enough for most metal.
>>736227234Why not just play guitar at that point? You can even play what you want instead of playing Green day or whatever shit music they licensed.

Just got around to beating this game on my backlog. Was a ridiculously long game (like 70ish hours to beat most of the stuff).It was fun, was able to beat like 95% of the puzzles without looking at hints, but some of the reflexes required for this made me feel my unc status. What did you guys think of this game and what do you think about the supposed sequel that is coming out this year?
>>736226856I am not expecting mozzart you fucking faggot. I am not above tropes. In fact, all I am asking is for a very basic one that would show that the story isn't infantalizing bullshit. It's a logical and gameplay supporting one as well. You have a character that's clearly damaged or is trying to overcome the basic difficulties inherent with her disability, and its only natural that the game devote a large section where all of that gets put to the test, but it doesn't. the lab coat faggots cloy you basically for long enough that I stopped finding the game fun, then scrubbed a youtube video looking for the point where they would finally fuck off and something like 40% to 60% of the longplay later they where still there pestering you constantly after every notable event telling you what to think about it and otherwise preventing me from getting invested in the silent protagonist. The game has a deeper woke or commie ideology beyond idpol, it straight up just doesn't want to leave the player to their own devices and trust them to overcome the world around them without a bunch of zoom meetings with your legal gaurdian basedantists to decide every move you will ever make. >>736227303the game portion I've played and seen already went on for hours and nothing fucking happens during any of it and yet people want to skip the parts I didn't see? why does anyone like this shit?
>>736227275It's literally just this one line in the dlc that you only get if you beat apollo in the duel
>>736227303I mean idk I liked it and liked talking with people and exploring everything and shit and I played it twice so idk. To be honest I don't even truly remember who you had to talk to to unlock the good ending, was it in the fire area prsion place? I remember I couldn't grab a chest there that was locked until the DLC dropped and that bothered me.
>>736227482>you only get if you beat apolloIt's harder to lose to him you disingenious fag, and it was pretty clear they were gay before then.>inb4 that doesn't count
Nobody says "I didn't like it" anymore, they just seethe about fags and complain that it wasn't like this or that.
>One of the very first indies alongside binding of isaac>3d sequel comes out>utterly flops what causes this?
A lot of zoomers don't remember but during the N64/PS1 era to about mid Wii/PS3/360 era, 2D platformers were basically dead and at best relegated to handhelds if they were lucky. Kirby was on hiatus, most other series had stuck with 3D, the biggest games during that time were what, Sonic Rush and New Super Mario Bros.?Super Meat Boy was a part of that revival, right at the beginning of when Indie games became a thing (in terms of trendiness, not literally), and precision platformers were a pretty new genre at the time. Meat Boy was very much of the time.
>>736215865Super Meat Boy was only popular because it came out at the right time and rode the "indie darling" title wave like VVVVVV, shovel knight etc. It's not that good in a vacuum and won't stand the test of time like Undertale, Hollow Knight, Binding of Isaac, Celeste etc did. Mina The Hollower is also shaping up to be a massive flop because the devs overestimated the power of their brand as a team and the market will rightfully reveal them to be the lucky, directionless hacks they always were. Only the Crypt of Necrodancer devs from that time got recognition by Nitnendo of all companies with Cadence of Hyrule, because they had a genuinely unique game concept. Even then, Rift that came out last year was quickly forgotten. With the sheer amount of games releasing today but also the different way humans relate to information on the modern web, meat boy didn't stand a chance
>>736227478>won't stand the test of time like Undertale, Hollow Knight, Binding of Isaac, Celeste etc didI see that sneak in your list lmao
>>736227478the same thing happened a couple years back with world of goo 2

>>736224210what the fuck I haven't seen this picture in years
>>736219141>I would have sex with OP pic and thislmao no you wouldnt, no female would want to be around you
>>736225459I agree with some of this, while disagree with others.Your first point rings true; not being able to import your save from the first game and instead of the events of KCD1 being drip fed you through out random shit in the second was not the correct choice to handle things, it leaves a hint of incompleteness, which in turns bleeds into the issue of Henry being kinda devolved back into being a nobody (EVEN after the initial early game) which already by the end of the first game is simply not the case (assuming you did your duties properly throughout the game), HOWEVER I do have to say that regardless of that Henry snapping back at Capon or any of the nobles for that matter WOULD be a massive social faux pas, he is still ultimately de jure, a commoner. (though I think their argument in the pillory is fucking hilarious and is one of the few instances it makes sense). All of this an dmore ties to a problem a lot of RPG's have where character progression doesn't meaninfully translate into the story/setting proper, instead creating this paradox where your character could/should do things, but because of plot reasons you're out of luck. (example of this would be the moment after Raborsch, when you are complaining your lack of coin to proceed, which Sam resolves with a single, albeit full purse of silver, leaving you gape like an idiot.)As for most of the side quests and their outcomes.. You are right. They tend to be quite linear and one dimensional, where quantity DOES apply over quality. The two linked quests about that conwoman who you free from the barn and perform the scam with against Tailor Latsek are pretty much a notorious example of this.What I don't agree with though is Erik. I'm fine with him being left alive (though I would have directed their duel slightly differently with Henry basically having to choose between a killing blow and warning Suchdol in time), if they make a sequel he is bound to be a villain along with von Bergow.Cont.
*ruins 2d platformers forever*
>>736216184if the jumps can barely be done in an open space then the spikes aren't making the level any harder (because if you aren't pixel perfect you are gonna fall anyway) and they are just there for flavor.I unironically don't get what the issue is, what would a good 2D platformer level look like instead?
>>73622661718 years ago the modern platformer was created, and they continue to be unfun
>>736227139for you
>>736220626Optional final dungeon with maybe 3 jumps like that, and an expectation that you'll replay the game to get something that makes the jumps pretty easy

What are some of the worst remasters and remakes?
>>736224019GFWL was stripped from Lost Planet 2 on steam a year ago already, it broke everyone saves and disabled multiplayer. The game is still not available to buy so this was completely fucking pointless other than fucking over the 50 people still playing
>>736222670Remastering a game that had already been remastered instead of working on updating the sequels and porting them to places like PC felt like it dumb move
>>736227141you WILL buy a Xbox Series X to play Gears 2, 3 Judgment.
>>736222670RE4>>736225996Nah remakes shoild be illegal unless they're from the same exact people who made the original
>>736227134even bettersell you a remaster that has working multiplayer for $50
>5080>only play indie slop that isn't demandingWhat are some good looking games that aren't shit that can take advantage of my GPU?
>>736223937Tbf it was a good monitor for 2010 standards, it's just that just right after I bought it tech got cheaper and advanced at good pace. For the same price rangr today I could probably get even an OLED screen with all the goodies, it's just that I'm the kind of guy who doesn't get new stuff until it breaks.
i just replay the same shit i've already played to deathit cant be helped
>>736218450I'm playing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, and it's so fucking underwhelming graphically. Graphics are not going to amaze you, with any modern game.

>>736226143Good stuff.
What went wrong?
>>736226934I thought it was weird too. The marshes are also a horrible introduction to the game since the game instakills you if you touch deep water like a ps1 game
>>736226992It not soulslop though. The fact people thought it was means they failed at marketing
>>736227196I didn't "Think" that, I played the game, it's soulsslop. It's deliberately OVER-heavy combat. It's like the surge. People swore up and down it's not soulsslop either, it is. I don't care what you believe, objective reality is there.
>>736227074It's a shame because the atmosphere is really good. Really enjoyed the doom and gloom that is constantly present. The ambient soundtrack also amplified this effect.
>>736226768It wasn't supposed to hold your hand but I tried the demo and>it holds your hand anyway>has skyrim puzzlesI honestly think it failed to have even niche appeal.
