Can they reach it?
>>7306320659 years between DQXI and XII, yup...it's in development hell.
Just finished 3 remake. I sped through on draky quest after a few hours in when I realized the game wanted me to endlessly grind, and yea nah fuck that I wasn't gonna spend 20ish hours farming That said I wish I played this a year and a half ago when I was unemployed for several months. Hell if I got it on release date I would have had a month to play it, which would have been an absolute blast since it feels like a game you can drop 200 hours into, and wouldn't have felt like I needed to enable the quest markers
>>730625923>What does Dragon Quest XII need to do to hit 10+ million copies sold?Well, the first step would be to make it available to purchase. If no-one can buy 1 copy for themselves it'll be hard to sell 10 million copies.
People who say it's over for the series because Yuji Horii will retire after the next DQ are retards because he didn't have any input on the recent DQ games since he is fucking 72 years old.
>>730625923Combat as good as (a little bit better than) XI, same quality of characters as XI, but the exploration of III with you just having to figure out where to go (maybe after so many hours / NPCs you talk to eventually the game can give you a quest marker)Also make it a prequel or sequel to VII so it feels relatable to people that played VII reimagined
So what did SKG accomplish?Oh yeah... that's right... NOTHING

It watered down the brand power in my opinion.

>>730644905probably just some schizo burnt out once too many by stealth general threads
Id enjoy this shit more if they had any stability to the story or fucking anything. No play some weird ass smups and guess the story from the fuckin bullets coming outta your ass.
>>730644905Why don't you? These threads have always been discordtroons circlejerking with each other.

>>730634307I'm stuck on T3 because I don't know how to push up the survivability on my Crackling Energy Sorc. As it stands I need to focus on dodging sword mortars in The Pit and redo all my jewelry gems to poison resist if I'm fighting Belial.
>>730637138Vessel of Hatred is such a nothingburger. If I'd paid full price for it at release instead of getting it as a bundle with D4 during the Black Friday sale I'd be so pissed. It's almost Curse of Osiris tier its so bad.
Guys, did I meet a time traveller?Back in the 2000s, there were lots of internet cafés in my city, and I used to go to one because I didn't have a PC.The one I used to go to had PCs with MAME, a bunch of arcade games.Well, one day, a totally normal guy around 20-25 years old sat down next to me. I didn't pay much attention to him; I was playing Joe & Mac that day, I think.Then I saw that he started playing SF2. I think the game had no sound.That's when I glanced at his screen and saw that he was playing with Ryu on Guile's stage, but there was no other character.Then I saw that Guile was in the back and got on the plane and left.I asked him how he did that and he said, ‘He just flew away.’ He turned off the computer (in a bad way, since in those days you had to wait for a message to appear) and left the cybercafé. I told my friends about this several times, but obviously they didn't believe me, and neither did I, because I thought it was just a hack or something.Well, yesterday YouTube's algorithm recommended a video of an animation made with sprites from the game that shows exactly that happening in the same way I remember it. I don't want to post the video because you'd think I'm trying to promote the channel, but it's a video with 600k views from five years ago.How is this possible? Was what I saw really a video? It's hard for me to remember if he chose the character and all that, because the video starts right at the beginning of the fight, but how is it possible that I saw a video from 2020 in 2000? And if he was a time traveller, why would he do something so like that to just troll a kid?
Test. Have a free bump
>>730644709Just link the video if you want a real opinion. This whole not linking anything because someone might make money and money=evil is retarded and stunts discussion.
>>730644709You sure it wasn't just an old video that got reuploaded? That seems like something that would be made in the 2000s.
>>730644709You met him too?
>>730645102well that's the problem, if I link the video probably someone will say "buy an ad" and one time a thread was deleted because shilling.Just typeシュールなストリートファイター2in the search bar and no >>73064519 it seems the video isn't a reupload.

>>730642256Looks good dude. Only nitpick is the plain base but I've been spoiled by youtubers and the local painters at my warhammer store making those things look beautiful.
>>730638437The most retarded thing is that despite passing checks that something is not right with his departament, you can't investigate and railroaded into betrayal, like you a total retard. It's would be much better if your character could figure out he is traitor and would get alternative missions of setting up surprise attack and taking them out before ship suffer much damage.
>>730616763Average niggercattle joes, the eternal shabbos. Remove them and every single empire falls apart, leaving only forces of nature such as Tyranids and Orcs, to which concepts like "good and evil" don't apply.
funny how a single tweet managed to completely destroy the reputation of a giant franchise
>instead of a story now
idk man I love rollslop and I think Zanzibart memes are great.
OP, you're like one of those stranded Japanese soldiers who didn't know that the war was over. That tweet is from close to four years ago.
>>730645025I still remember the seethe this caused when it was first posted, kek. Then after a while fromdrones started pretending it's actually based, and how they definitely didn't soil their diapers over it.Good times.

Is it too late to get a Steam Deck? Should I wait for Deck 2?
just the ram alone in the fucking things are worth like 500 bucks now, sure they probably secured the first few batches at lower prices but valve is calculating the 2nd and 3rd batch prices are going to be way higher so the price they launch will have to be higher than anticipated, theres no shot this thing comes in under 700 bucks on the most optimistic day which is going to still put a bunch of people off since its going to be iGPU that needs run heavy upscaling from 720p to play anything AAAthe device is just in a horrible area pricing wise because it not going to run things normies wanna play on maxed settings and its going to essentially be a 700+ dollar emulation and sunshine/moonlight client. if they made it like 300 bucks it would have to be so anemic that its basically just another steamlink clientalso any sophisticated consumers that want to do these things will just end up going with a chink mini pc or a NUC
Just realize, Valve will have to use Medusa Point and use less CPU cores but more GPU compute units of RDNA 3.5+ since it's monolithic. Medusa Halo would screw over the Deck 2's efficiency because it's a chiplet.
>spend a autistic amount of time setting up steam input hotkeys and shit for very PC centric games>keep testing it until it feels comfortable and natural (to me)>never play the game again, feel happy with what I haveis this autism
>>730638804Just get the SD1. It'll be a long time before there will be a new SD worth getting (either it's an AMD and overpriced, or it's a Snapdragon and coming out in like 2030)
>>730641378Personally my ideal for the steam deck is like 45FPS. 30FPS is ok if it's a slower paced game but for anything action oriented, 45FPS is a good sweet spot for playability and battery life for me.
The big truthpill is that it's actually better than the original.
>>730645205>What if... instead of Dyne being a tragic villain, it was actually aliens>Print that shit
>>730645354>3:24am EST>I have to go to worknigga where you working at, the fucking international scam station?
>>730645354Lol, I'm guessing the translation changed nothing substantial then.
>>730645343They really need to go. There was an interview a while back where Aonuma was talking about how Nintendo’s spent the recent years training and mentoring their younger staff to prep them to take over once they all leave. It’s a huge part of their company culture. Square’s the complete opposite. These washed up fuckers won’t let new blood work and keep pushing out mediocrity,
>>730645205Dyne being captured by a bunch of fruitcakes and tied to a chair just to put up a fight against Barret and random Shinra attack moments later is amazing writing.
Remember: hold RESET while you turn POWER off, or your game may not be saved !!
Literally no one did that
>>730645065I did that all the time.

>>730645035That does worry me, the og is another favorite of mine from DD.
>>730645370bro you have the game just do a quick race or two and for dino jungle all you have to do is memorize the placements of the dinos and you're good I've won multple times there though when you do play you won't be able to use monke since you have to unlock him through grand prix
https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2026/01/seasonal-switch-2-sales-show-significant-slowing-as-annual-cycle-sunsets/?comments-page=1#commentsI JUST KILLED JAPANESE GAME WITH MAH' FUCKIN PRICE and KEYCARD, WAHOO!Nintendo switch 2 was actual Japanese game killer. Not Chinese, Korean or Western games.Nintendo switch 2 has nailed the coffin on Japanese game by sales flopping due to fucking price and keycards, and shitty exclusives which resulted in switch 2's sale flopping like WiiU, when they are in peril in 2025 due to having kusoges only like MH wilds, Yumia, Mario Kart world, Pokemon ZA Metroid 4 while in 2024, Japanese game was so strong according to metascore. But no Japanese game with metascore over 90s in 2025. And according to this article, PS5 sold a lot in winter 2025 while switch 2 flopped hardly in winter like WiiU.

>>730633457For some reason eric never raids fire emblem and Zelda girl threads Really makes you think
>it's the korean bikini schizo spamming his IMG pics alongside of broken English postsjust ban range the third-world including South Korea.fuck korean niggers
>>730645123>fire emblemhe literally does, they have been unusable due to the gore/scat spam for literal yearsand if it's not that then it's the "akshually FE is only good when it's a glorified westoid game" spam
>>730645281I editted "Phil Fish" and “Peril of Western game industry(서구권 게임계 위기론)" on Namuwiki, as "Japanese game collapsed in 2025, and switch 2 which was to save Japanese game has flopped like WiiU due to price, keycard, shitty titles have nailed the coffin on Japanese game, and Japanese game's fall is due to their greedy way of selling, which is worse than DEI while Western game rises due to fair and reasonable way of selling", but negated... West never have expensive games, no predatory practice, no key disc which requires download, no selling definitive edition again like P5R. Right? West never have greedy practice.
Post bad vidya redesigns.
>>730645379People like to meme on DMC reboot but I'd strongly argue DMC3 Dante is a massive downgrade in character design compared to the previous two games.
>>730645198>rightoriginal design>leftredesign I hate how they turned Klonoa into a Sonic character. He had his own identity in the original design
resdeigning his iconic hairstyle is fucking retarded. It's like changing Goku's hair or removing Superman's curl. It's just lame. Also any design change that involves putting a character in ALL black is just cringy as fuck and anyone that disagrees is wrong.
We took this for granted...
>>730620016>>730621342Adding to what everyone else has posted, that is not the title screen of Underground 2. That image took the box art of the game and put some random buttons in the corner to make it look like a menu.
My buddies and I had the sickest lan parties over long weekends and breaks from school. Our desktops in someone's living room/bed room, that person's mom cooking us dinner and taking us on on trips to the store to grab snacks and microwave slop. Good times, I should schedule an adult lan party now that we're all home owners.
>>730619264I went back home for the holidays and met up with some old highschool friends I hadn't seen in almost 10 years. We met up for an all-night "LAN" party and stayed up until dawn playing Left 4 Dead and Ready or Not. Drinking Mountain Dew Code Red and eating hot pockets, pizza bites and doritos. It was one of the funnest nights I've had in a long time.God I miss 2008 when I was 15 and didn't know that the insomnia would never end
>>730632373Every human medium reaches its apex and then plummets. I'm ok with it. And it wasn't fast to me because I was a kid. The years between just 1990 and 1996 were immense in my experience. But there's nothing to be sad over because we have a near infinite choice of great video games.
>>730619264>AI slop of days long gone
This is you /v/.
If it was always good then they wouldn’t need to keep working to make it better.

Good games are a spook.

Open world games are a stupid gimmick and you know it.Linear > semi open > open world
>>730641276>loliconThe word you are looking for is shotacon. Because you're a faggot. Diana is olev.
>>730640548looks worse than default...
>>730629647Test
>>730629647Open world is just a level select that is used to pad out what little compelling content the game has and it doesn't really fall anywhere in the spectrum of linear to non-linear even though people LOVE to put it all the way on the non-linear end of the spectrum.Metroid 4rime and Wind Waker demonstrate that you can have a mostly rigidly linear open world just fine.>>730633437I just can't stomach an open world game after the first playthrough, because I know that there is no replayability in it and all the microlevels aren't compelling.They are thoroughly 5/10 or 6/10 games, the kind of game where I might pick it up and play it, mainly because it is there or because I want to finish it, but not due to a compelling property of the game itself.>>730638363It's more difficult on the presentation, because then you end up with a game that is 10% main content, 40% bonus stages and 50% shit you would have had to cut in any other context. No one would ever select half the levels.>>730639856No, that's just an excuse they use for their timesink project. Less is more.>>730640379>Re engine game>No VR mode yetThere's time to see if they are based.

Pee pee poo poo
>>730645347i can't remember the last time I bought a game just because I saw people having>funwith it. and I sure as hell wouldn't force myself to play it to. I want games I would actually enjoy, not what other people think they're enjoying
