During the Xbox 360 era, Microsoft nearly defeated Sony.Now, the Xbox is basically dead.
>>729641017>The Xbox One lost the most pivotal generation because everyone was building up digital libraries that locked them to their platformsThis is bullshit given that everyone that had an Xbox One or PS4 just shifted to the Switch and PC. Hell, half of everyone that brought an Xbone didn't even bother with the Xbox Series consoles. Most of the Xbox Series S users were new and now Microsoft is pricing them out of the Xbox ecosystem especially next gen. I wouldn't even be surprised if some Xbox One guys just got a PS5 too.
>>729641017i know achievement hunter fags on 360 with hundreds of thousands of gamerscore that didn't buy an xbone lol
>>729641045>meanwhile weeaboo has no kids, only plays videogames, still buys Sony, Nintendo, PC>SonyThey're normie trash now, they'll be going the way of Xbox. At least when Sony goes fully third party, Sony of Japan will fully take over it, and they'll get rid of their western crap.
>>729627470Xbox was always shitXbox died because the toddlers who thought it was great are reaching 30 now and are starting to discover real video games
>>729627470xbox decided they ruined video games enough and cashed out.

Why does no one want to buy Chinese hardware?
Chinks know that chinks scam so they avoid their own products
>>729641010>chinese tourist caught defecating at the walls
>>729640939pay all that money and insurance on a car and a bicycle can run you over and kill your family
>>729640458I discussed guitars with a Chinese on /int/ and he told me that Chinese people would rather buy a ticket to Japan and buy a 3000$ shitty Fender than buy their own high-end 600$ guitars. I swear their Chinese guitars come with top-tier machining and hardware (I own a Chinese-made Jackson) but because they themselves worship capitalist Western-made goods they would put themselves in debts for 10 years rather than support their own economy.Problem is Nvidia, they own too many patents and provide the best performance already. Reason I don't even trust AMD. But if Chinese GPUs were objectively good I would use one, China is not the problem.
World is envious of China's rise.
Guys, this game is not good.
Anyone try this?
>>729637328Very overrated series hyped up by retards who wants to feel special for playing an Atlus game other than Persona. It's the definition of a series for midwits who basedjaks at bottom of the barrel philosophy concepts.
>>729637328It's an entry game. It's really only good for normalfags just getting in from pokeshit or something. After like 7 smts I'd never go back, at least not without hardtype mod on og, but I cannot fuck with the kalpa labyrinth.
>>729637809This is exactly where I stopped playing six months ago.Foxed to backtrack for some bullshit, and then I'm faced with this fucker.I've caught heaps of mons. Looked into fusing - cause that's what i heard this game is about - but barely any mons could even fuse with each other at my current level or whatever. Fused the only one I could - not sure if it was a good idea. Not impressed.

How can in-game romances evolve from the current '3-4 conversations and one sex scene before the final mission' format they are currently stuck in /v/?

Are you playing any Mega Man? I’m about to start picking related. What will I think of it?
I need to redo my custom library covers some time, they were flawed as shit for my first attempts.
>>729615930No, Inticreates wanted Zero 1 to have the real X as the main antagonist. Inafune was the one that stepped in and tard wrangled them.
>>729620886Honey is so much better, I hate that we got Splash instead.
>>729631664Command Mission is already canon.
>>729598438Yeah, it was pretty good, shame they dropped the plans of remaking the sequels the same way. The way they killed off Dr. Cain in the backstory clearly meant they had some interesting plans to retool the overall plot.
Double Laundry go!
>burn not bannedWhat a shitshow, fitting end for the worst year in MD.
>>729640927>AAAIIIIEEE WHY DID THEY NOT BAN BURN IN THE BURN EVENT
>>729640927They nerfed burn from last year's version of the event. It's fine now.

Welcome back to our ongoing screenshop LP of "4.6 Billion Year Story: The Theory of Evolution".Previous thread: >>729552896>What is this game?The original JRPG predecessor of E.V.O. Search For Eden for the SNES, released on the PC-98, developed by Almanic and published by the JRPG gods themselves Enix. The game follows the perspective of a mortal creature chosen by Gaia, (You), to shepherd Earth through the entirety of its evolutionary history over the course of billions of years. You must save innocent wildlife from danger and clear obstacles to the world's continued evolution, while at the same time thwarting the machinations of a sadistic alien ojou-sama from outer space. >What's the gameplay?Battle other creatures, spam the Fight command in repetitive JRPG encounters, gain EVO (exp), and transform yourself into new species, doing your best to climb to the end of the evolutionary chain and avoiding the trap of genetic dead ends.>can I play it too?Just look up the ROM on MyAbandonware, then download the patch (along with the translated manual full of lore) here: https://46okumen.com/projects/e-v-o-the-theory-of-evolution/>where is tonight's thread starting?As you may remember, our last session stopped right after we witnessed the extinction of the dinosaurs. After taking shelter in Gaia's cave (no mammals allowed), we emerged from hibernation to find the planet frozen after the asteroid's impact debris blocked out the sun.Comment too long.

>>729640376>a gnome with a stick, which you'd think would be on the human side.Could be some Japanese play on words.
>>729640376Dinos get a dragon man with natural armor too. The look pretty badass.
>>729640793It mostly is, but the battles are mind numbingly bad.
>>729628775Isn't that just Seventh Cross Evolution?
Rare Earth Elements. The whole fucking world runs on this shit. And who controls all of it? China. Really guys? You're gonna build an entire military based on a mineral element that is wholly controlled by China?
rare earth elements aren't even rare.
>>729641171China doesn't "control it" they control the processing because of how shit it is for the environment. No one else wants to do that. If we wanted to we could but we would have to sacrifice like North Dakota or some other shitty state

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY

>>729638623W-What?
Name the biggest retcon or narrative alteration you have personally seen in a video game.
>>729639391You have to slowly introduce these concepts to people not overwhelm them all at once. Star Wars at one point was "out there" to some when the first bits of trailer footage were shown, now its an insult to not know who Han Solo is. Nobody would've seen Guardians of the Galaxy in the 1990's especially after Howard the Duck, but now people won't shut the fuck up about Groot or Rocket Raccoon. Anime was laughed or reviled, now everyone thinks a stretchy pirate suplexing some dragon warlord with Tom and Jerry antics is peak cinema.
>>729640014I think you're overestimating how corporations are cautiously after failing reading the room with bust movies and games.
>>729640270Well yeah now it doesn't really matter, all of nerd culture is easily accessible and mainstream thanks to the internet and Hollywood. Most people also do realize niches exist, but corporations don't know that. For example The Barbie movie made 1 billion dollars. I couldn't care less but it had its audience. If Hollywood decided to make more movies like that to appeal to women more power to them, so long as movies and media I like is still in circulation ( it isn't but thats besides the point).
>>729607745didn't he leave bethesda like way before that happened
>>729623048To be fair, warcraft III and the novels that came before retconned a lot too.
Whats the worst localization in games?
>>729616235FE Fates
>>729618319Your explanation is barely coherent, so can't tell what you're complaining about, but the Deluxe version is accurate to the Japanese here.>>729619781Localizers do this a lot where they'll "punch up" dialogue. Apparently Westerners wouldn't get why he's not saying anything in response. Dumb to do, but not the biggest deal since it conveys the intent.>>729620010They completely neutered the original here... This is definitely not preserving the intent when even the sprite is different. This one qualifies as pretty bad.>>729620552This is the future of how Japanese people will speak, also known as Katakanglish. I'd chalk this down to laziness as the translators couldn't think of some equivalent quirky way for the old man to talk other than him going "Kimi's Purah Paddo is not yetto perfecto". Agreed with the other anon that reading the original Japanglish would be grating.>>729622707It can be pretty terrible how localizers will change the entire personality of characters. Good catch on this one.
>>729641060Should've made him talk with a bunch of random German, that's the stereotypical scientist language anyway.
>>729616405>>729616509
>>729625674In the JP version they all had the same description.
Despite all its flaws still unsurpassed.I think that's why people get so mad at this game. It's so close yet so far, it COULD be so good but is so ass but it's still far better than anything else we have.
>>729616162just be bandits/antagonists that compete with the player for resources and cause problems or try to kill the playerthe mid/late game just needs survival pressure and NPC's can provide that pressure to force you to actually strategize and think about what you're doingsurvival mechanics relating to exposure, food supply, medicine, blood loss, wounds, infections, etc. also help provide some mid-late game survival pressure, but it's easy to do it wrong, people don't want a doctor simulator, they want to have fun and keep things relatively simple but realistic and that's what autists typically don't understand when they make these kinds of games
>>729640898Games set in older times have such potential for cool historical shit that we dont' really do anymore. But modern leftists and zoomers seem to always do anachronisms instead of accurate things.Case in point, Zomboid's mod community does nothing but add 2025 Californian shit to the game.
>>729612809I DON'T WANT ZOMBIES ON MY LAWN.
>>729640693I personally think having the system simplify itself as you level skills would work pretty well.
>>729620403>all of a sudden brain comes to a realization that you can just walk away from everything or backpeddle + swing to stay alive forever as long as you don't do something incredibly dumbfuck retardedI figured out how to fix this but it required an old mod that's no longer aroundYou need sprinter zombies that are a bit slower than you when sprinting, but not so slow that they immediately lose you if you run. That's it.You can outrun them, but not forever because you get tired and they don't, so you have to be smart about running awayYou can still run away, and then turn around and fight, but if there's more than a handful of zombies you'll get swarmed unless you use a firearm (which you've modded into your game in high availability because you understand every 8th person in kentucky is packing)Your shots draw in more zombies ofc, but you're clever and use various items on hand to distract them, or you manage to hide/juke them, or you get in a car and run, or you dieit helps keep the mid game more fun because you're always on your toes but not in a horrible oppressive way with default sprinters where you can't do fuckall about it if there's more than 3 of them at once. You may also want to turn off zombie infection entirely and only have them wounding you, which creates situations where you get mauled by survive, which is an interesting survival struggle in itself.whats kind of amazing to me is that this zombie game has basically left zombie behaviours and options like this completely untouched for what must be 5 years now? From what I know sprinter speeds are actually determined by their animations so it's not as simple as just modifying some variable like you'd expect.
>China's mid range cards have a failure rate of around 80%Lol I hope you weren't retarded enough to buy a Chinese card to save a few bucks.

Oh look another "China thing will collapse soon" Let me guess they have 2 more weeks left to fix it?

Why Valve don't care about optimizing their games for Steam Deck? Why are they able to get away with this?

>>729638652Whoever made that video really needs to learn how to change settings in PC games, unless that game is actually this poorly optimized, which I doubt.
