Why do games where you rescue a princess or damsel in distress resonate with people so much?
>>736286526Western culture is all about simping for women. It's what unites both the left and the right.
>>736296962Bonbon...
>>736286526Wow, princess Camilla. Cant believe anyone else knows about Little Nemo.
>>736286526it's one of the oldest known human stories and appeals to our species on a primal levelpeople will still be telling damsel in distress stories long after all the feminists have died as childless hags
>>736297206Culture/Society in general is about setting up a situation in which women are safe to raise children. Even "oppressive" cultures like islam is ostensibly about protecting women's virtue so they can raise children at home without being raped by their beastlike men constantly.There even is an argument to be made that all human endeavours are basically just abstracted peacocking of men to show off that they are smarter/stronger/wealthier than the competition so that they can fuck more and better women. I don't think its entirely true, but I have heard people legitimately argue that.
LA Noire aged like a fine wine. Kino film noir experience. Replaying it right now in 4k + 60fps.
>>736296753>MafiaGood>Mafia RemakeGood>Mafia 2Great>Mafia 3Okay for a GTA clone, but Mafia in name only>Mafia Old CountryOne of the games of all time
>>736296753>MafiaAmazing>RemakeOkay>Mafia 2Pretty good>Mafia 3Horrible, never should have been made>Mafia Old CountryMeh
>>736296753Mafia 1 I haven't played, but I've heard is really good despite the aged graphics and sound. I have played the 'Definitive Edition' remake of it and while graphically it looks really good and plays ok, the acting feels dull at times. Mafia 2 has very good atmosphere, probably the greatest, and some immersive things like being able to mod your car and save it (DE lets you do this too but you can only change the color, Mafia 3 you couldn't save cars in the release version-they stop spawning once you get into a different car), but like this anon says>>736283382 alot of the game was cut and it feels shorter. Also what he says about Mafia 3, my experience has been that the game has way too many rinse and repeat side missions: drive delivery boat/truck, go to this place and wipe out enemies. Story might be a hit or miss, you have multiple endings and factions you can ally with or defeat. Radio on 2 and 3 are full of good songs, though I felt like 2's radio host for the 50's portion sounded too modern for time period. The Old Country, I haven't played, but I've heard is extremely short and linear. The acting from vids I've seen reminds me of Mafia DE.
>>736265336It was shit.Plot's crap compared to any detective story worth its salt and the gameplay holds your hands so much it hurts.Ost was good, that's it.
>>736265336YES I FUCK YOUNG BOYS
I feel like the original intention was the opposite. It was a genre where you just give orders and sit back, you dont have to do the work yourself. so its supposed to be comfy.
>>736268835It sucks that theres exceedingly few games that are basically simplified versions of a city builder and RTS combined, when it seems like thats the popular demand that most people want. City builders themselves are boring, theres no real stakes or excitement, and RTS's keep trying to minimize the economy and appeal to the sweaty competitive crowd with lots of micro, which most people find stressful and overhwhelming and a reason the genre has declined
>>736298921>fun genre is dead due to esharts retards killing it>why are you mad bro????Reminder that in every single one of the greatest games of all time, not even just RTS, multiplayer is either not there or is an afterthought.
>>736298302>like how some people want to have their SimCity, but also bitch about>>Any strategy that involves handicapping you on the way to you making your OP donutsteel doomstackThis is very true as well. I'm pretty casual but I fucking hate those people who have 1 unit die and screem "NOOOOOOO STOP IT I JUST WANNA BUILD CITIES! MUH COMFY BASE!"They are like a thin skinned child who wants to play tag and mock who's it, but then throw a tantrum when they are the ones it.
>>736269894love this game, shame about the grafix
Have you people tried the Settlers series? I mean 3 and 4 hereIt sounds like something you'd enjoy, build a base and an economy slowly, and if you want, there is also the ai you can trample whenever you feel like it. The gameplay is also pretty slow so
Some of you zoomies don't know this, but hard games were invented by arcades in order to steal difficulty from children. They have no artistic value whatsoever, they are purely a monetary and financial decision. No game should be hard EVER.
>>736273927Hey it's the dumb cunt who made a video specifically about progress in Metroid: Zero Mission and didn't know how to make progress in Metroid: Zero Mission. Did he say Kirby's Dreamland is too hard for him?
>>736273927>motivation was bad therefore the mechanics is badAbsolutely dogshit arguement. I guess you should just stop playing games entirely if you genuinely believe this. News flash: 99% of video games are made with the intention to make a profit.
>>736273927Threadly reminder>faggot is called "game makers toolkit">videos have 0 actual game dev tools in them>videos are just "hurr durr here game mechanics I like/dislike"His videos will not help you make games whatsoever
>>736289123>entire video predicated on the idea that the "point" of hollow knight is seeing the enemy start an attack animation and doing the correct response in time>sussing out when it's safe to be in a place the enemy could reposition to isn't a mechanic because it's """random""" (no further explanation given)fucking lmao
>>736298395Yet you hang around a thread about it. Seems like mental illness to me.
Can GTA6 compete without AI? Maybe it’ll do fine now, but 10 years from now I think R* will be most regretful to abandon AI and AI engineers
Lmao, it´s scared.
>>736296009Hello browns, just a reminder that TakeJew killed re3, that makes you all cunts at the very least
>>736297418delayed same number of times as red dead 2 also made with india workforce
>>736297418I thought they weren't releasing the game while cheetoman was in office?
>>736296410What about Guns N' Roses tho ?
WITHIN THE INNER HEART I PLEADFOR YOU TO TALK TO MEI WANT TO HEAR ALLTHE GOOD AND BAD THE NEW STORIES YOU HAVE!
>>736298179>spoilertrvth nvkeI never liked P4s songs either.
>>736298179It'd be good if they'd just make it easier to swap tracks around freely
>>736298461Instead of making history, why didn't P4 just make some songs that don't suck balls?>NOW I FACE OUT I HOLD OUT>*mangled engrish jibberish*Like no bro.
>>736298179I couldn't believe how bad the new mass destruction sounds compared to the old one. A lot of the songs are fine but a few of them are so jarringly bad I couldn't stand it. All the new songs are really good though because they're made for the new singer
>>736299127>Instead of making history, why didn't P4 just make some songs that don't suck balls?I agree those aren't great, but I think P4 has my favourite boss theme lineup of the entire series. Almighty, new world fool, fog, ill face myself are incredible.
SLAY THE SPIRE 2update here
>>736298554It's EA, they clearly don't have a solid plan for him and are trying to figure it outI'm sure this happens with most bosses, we're just allowed to see behind the curtain (as beta testers)
>>736298971It seems to, watched over a clip I made recording the glory of Snakebite and Mummy procced on a Dash I already had in hand
>>736298543>>736298443Rage + Iron Wave... Delicious block...>>736298554I had to spend the opening hand using Nightmare+ on Speedster+ and Vakuu gave me 0 cost WLP (it'd be way better if he had given me 0 cost Speedster+ to Nightmare+, then I could have played all 3 on the exhaust turn), then eating the hit on exhaust turn just playing the Speedster+ because I am still stuck with 3 energy. Then I took another hit on the no draw turn because I need the Speedster+s all online to properly play the fight out.>>736298606Here's deckI never used Pael's Eye ONCE the entire run, I simply do not jive with it most of the time. I should have gone Pael's Wing.MVPs were>Nunchaku + Happy FlowerGave me the energy on the turns when I needed them most of the time>Intimidating HelmetProccing on Ricochet and Haze and Nightmare and Bullet Time and Predator all helped me survive Nigger Killer at the end of Act 2 and throughout the rest of the runComment too long.

>>736299306New Doormaker is a tricky fight and I never felt safe once during it. If I fucked up the cycling I would not have made it to the next few turns because exhaust phase would have got me
>>736299195I sincerely hope they just throw away the entire boss and bring back time eater or something.I legitimately loathe the boss. I die to other bosses far more often (subject 99 the most) but I don't like how the entire boss fight is just another layer of draw RNG on top of your normal draw RNG.

>>736296265The whole Altmer are Jewish is such a stupid thing.They are clearly meant to be something along the lines of Nazis. Just because they use manipulation tactics doesn't make them Jewish. Or do you guys think that Germany didn't have spies or agents in neutral countries spreading propaganda among the population to make them sympathetic to the Nazi cause? Also their whole philosophy is based around racial purity.
>>736297861Jews are highly insular and their entire ethnoreligion supposes they are God's chosen.
Is the Fromsoft "B-team" even a real thing anymore? Seems like it's just referring to whether Miyazaki directed it or not.
>>736295180Sekiro was a b team game. It's obvious this hack had nothing to do with it besides recycling his same muh immortality storyline again and telling them to make a sword combat game.
>>736295180i know you made this thread to bait the webm retard
Japan game developer staffing structure is different from western developers so I'm going to wager that some white trash on the internet does not actually know who did what specifically. This argument was pointless with Kingdom Hearts also.
>>736295180There was a B-team for Dark Souls that made Dark Souls 2. That ignores the fact that every Dark Souls game is below par for From Software compared to Armored Core.
>>736295180DS2 wasn't a B-team in the sense of "Miyazaki got pulled away for something more important and it was a side project for the company", as Miyazaki was never intended to direct it. It had already started development under Tomohiro Shibuya before DS1 even released. The team was a mix of vets from DS1 and people that didn't work on the prior game, and it had a greater than average amount of outsourcing for a Fromsoft game at the time. That isn't the same as being on some B-team that was lower priority. >>736296835Miyazaki is the opposite of a hack. Everything he touches turns to gold.
>dont have house>dont have stairs>dont have secret gaming pod under my stairs in my housewhere should I build my secret gaming pod?
>>736291960Americans have this fantasy of being banished to the lowest ranked part of their house while a foreign man dicks down their wives in their bedrooms. It's really weird but not surprising.
>>736291841Why would he cut his movie wallpapers up like that?
>>736298824This ended because Sora was shut down lol.
>>736291841lavos POD
>>736291960There's a difference between having a neat shelf zone or some other space for easy sorting of household items. Meanwhile a hobby space requires actual room, since you need to be comfortable to actually enjoy the things you're doing. As a well-off code monkey who sits in front of a pc most of his time, I cannot fathom why anyone would cram themselves into a tiny closet with zero leg room and no ability to even move around. I have a huge desk at my house and a giant office chair to be able to work even lying down if I want to. You have to be an actual cuck if you're being forced to torture yourself by sitting in a tiny cramped pod, just because your gf/wife cannot fathom you having a hobby/desk job.

Reinstalled the PSN versions on my PS5. They're just PS2 emulated and I'm not using OpenGoal, because I don't want to despoil the nostalgia with fast loading and hypersharp resolution.

i took the liberty of narrowing down the choice for you
>>736297748Out of these 3? DE, easily. Genuinely very well written, enjoyable and can combine humour and gravity very well. It also manages to both touch on profound social and philosophical issues as well as relatable human drama. Planescape has some genuinely great ideas in its story, but outside of crucial scenes most of the writing isn't that good really, just okay. Also, while D&D fags may eat me alive for this, I think in many places it unironically gets strongly dragged down by the Planescape setting which has lots of shitty or tacky worldbuilding and often tries to be weird just for sake of being weird. Morrowind has amazing lore and setting. The main quest concept is cool as well and strongly intertwined with those. But the actual writing (i.e. dialogue and descriptions, if if it had those), as well as quests fucking suck
>>736297849This
>>736297748FNV
Planet Escape Tournament, where not one but two women choose to throw their lives away for you because they love you, even if you haven't spoken to either of them since you recruited them. Where someone tries to convince you you're on a pointless, one way suicide mission and your only response amounts to"look I just have to okay???" instead of having literally any choice in explaining yourself. Where you get a bonus for sucking up to a character but all the suck up choices are just "you, beautiful <name>" so you know which one to push every time. Where people praise it for its devillish evil options but most of them still amount to being a prick for no good reason. Where everyone recommends INT/WIS/CHA Mage because those stats determine how much story content you're getting, so if you play Thief or Warrior you're literally getting less of what the game is about.I like the game fine but people get irrationally attached to defending it because it was baby's first wordy RPG that took itself seriously.

Is fortnite actually fun? I've been looking for a game I can just jump in to kill some time. I hear gamepass ultimate comes with the whole subscription thing fortnite has that gets you a bunch of shit and I've been wanting to try that high on life 2 game but I also don't really want to pay full price for it.

>>736298380we did already with some cosmetics in the shop, there's a lot of stuff you can only get in certain seasons, like picrelbanners, pets, profile pics, they've been limited time before and currently are. the only difference is if they don't come back, which i would bet against personally. hell, the red sauda skin is like the definition of FOMO
>>736298570yeah you said it, difference with the current items is they return during certain time periods. with what they have planned now, I don't think that will be the case
