It always feels like video games as a medium never reaches it's full potential or even close all there is is slop to shut your mouth and be happy with.

>>729325694it was a scam LLMs did nothing but make shit more expensive
>>729326018back in my day 4 years was enough to watch a series go from being 2d sprites on a plain background to fully-rendered worlds governed by physics, and that was without the entire venture capital complex shoveling billions down your gullet.

Look at him.
>>729325404Why is he the title character when he has been completely irrelevant to the modern story? Why is it still called "Five Nights" when Security Breach and Mimic only had one night?

Merry Christmas (Eve) /v/https://rentry.org/Santanon2025Santa's back for at least another year to deliver on vidya goodness.>What is this?Every year, I round up links to a bunch of new and old romhacks, freeware, mods, and much more straight from their sources (so no need to worry about malware, needing an account, sifting through a billion sites or joining a discord) then manually compile them into an easily viewable document as my way of giving each year. In a sense you can think of it like reliving looking through Christmas catalogs except you can actually play everything you see in it, and it's usable year around. >Can I contribute?You can dump whatever you have, no major restrictions aside that it has to be vidya related and from the source or a reliable mirror. Helping out anons with recommendations for stuff inside and outside the document and spreading the christmas cheer are both highly encouraged even if you have no intentions of it being added. This year unlike other years, I will be available all day on both days, so I'll be able to manage the thread and document even well into the evening. This year I am especially looking for archives to old stuff, so if you have any, I implore you share with the thread.>What's Santa got in store this year?it was a little tougher finding things in a few categories, but this year's catalog is more Japanese oriented than usual partly due to so many translations releasing, and you'll see what I mean. But I also wanted to honor some old culture, so I focused on finding fixes for older PC games, archives to flash content, obscure Japanese games on Internet Archive and so much more. It felt very important for me this year for a good amount of reasons..Let's make this another good Christmas and spread some holiday cheer.
>>729336264You make me warm in my heart santa anon. The realest guy around. Love you bro.
OP's got Jingle Balls of SteelThanks!
>>729337104>>729337627Thank you both.Glad I've been able to brighten peoples' christmases for as long as I have.Think I'll do at least another bump or two of my own after this post before packing up. Though even after I do, any submissions will still be added as long as the thread is alive.

Do you agree with Jonathan Blow that Elden Ring and Breath of the Wild are pinnacles of bad modern design and developers would be better served focusing on smaller-scale puzzle-oriented games that harness the full power of the medium?
>>729326883Why would anyone listen to the guy that designed The Witness?
>>729326883>Do you agree with Jonathan Blow that Elden Ring and Breath of the Wild are pinnacles of bad modern design and developers would be better served focusing on smaller-scale Yes like actual Souls games instead of open world slop. I sincerely hopes From never makes another open world game, and not because I hate Elden Ring, but if you have any actual critical analysis skills for videogames you know what I mean.>puzzle-oriented games that harness the full power of the medium?No that's just puzzle game fans autism.
>>729335972>I sincerely hopes From never makes another open world gameGot bad news for you buddyER is their most successful game yet. The fucking DLC got nominated for GOTY, for Christ's sake.They're never going back.
>>729326883i think puzzles are lame and gay too, puzzles have no replay value and are all about revealing obfuscation rather than legitimate problem solvingthe best games are about reacting quickly to things and changing your plans accordingly to achieve the best outcome

>>729337884Reminder that they didn't even want to add a D pad "early prototypes show the start button where the D pad is" they added it because a bunch of autistics complained about breaking tradition or whatever.

I'm just a lowly engineer, but a lot of companies take highly trained STEM professionals and force them to do bullshit like move equipment, clean up labs, cut POs, schedule meetings, write reports nobody will read, and much more non-technical bullshit.

>>729321503This. Do some research into the ingredients so you can explain why it's better than discount soap after they open it, and I'd appreciate it every time.
>>729302017Every Christmas my aunt would get me a pair of socks. Every. Damn. Christmas.
>>729335024Based. I got awesome surprise gifts this Christmas so I'm not complaining but aside from rare exceptions, "surprise gifts" end up being a burden and people really seem to struggle to understand that. Maybe their closet is already stuffed to the point where it's hard to take things in and out and more clothes add to that mess. Maybe you shouldn't give someone a hat if you never see them wearing them. If they outright tell you that they're in the process of decluttering or that they're space is really small, they're not being humble, they're asking you to respect their boundaries. Making mindless consumerism into a holiday tradition is one of the greatest successfully pulled-off psyops in American history.

>>729339331If this is the same guy it always is, he just really can't get over the fact that he can't beat her on his own or without cheesing. It's literally consumed him, he's a blood starved beast. A hollow. A demon. He'll stalk these halls forever, repeating the tale of his defeat with no hope of ever overcoming it because he couldn't bring himself to try harder. Poor dark little soul.

Just do this.
>>729338673Challenge? You can just run away, like with most threats in this series. The real challenge is for the fight to play out without her entity states bugging out, and it's a challenge that From's programming fails most of the time.

>>729339585>Game lets you play all classes on one characterSounds like a shit game
