>>730642780A fellow suspicious observer I see.
>>730638490Your low spec pc is choosing your games. You have no option but to play old games
>>730642821maybe, chronology is probably fake>>730638490same
>>730642840Not him and I upgraded my old 10 years old pc like year ago and I practically play the same games I used to play or games that would run without much problem on my old toaster
>>73064025832GB is more than enough for the moment. 6 years from now it'll be the bare minimum. Unless your game has a memory leak it won't go past 20GB normally. The only game i've ever heard needing 64GB to be safe was DCS for multiplayer.
I know it's a bit late to ask this, but this question just popped into my mind. What kind of New Year's resolutions has /v/ anons made for 2026?Mine is to actually get to my Steam Backlog of games and play and finish the games that i have bought but not played yet.
>>730640928subbed. look forward you your shit posts.
>>730640983that's very kind of you, but you don't need to subscribe if you don't like the content.Don't take it this wrong way though, I still appreciate the gesture
>>730641284Who doesn't like a good shit post video?
>>730642047I don't know, for some reason I just thought you might have been feeling some sort of social obligation to sub or whatever out of kindness so I just felt the need to say thatI'm glad we think alike when it comes to shitposts
I want to play a fuckton of games that I feel like I should've played by now at my current age, as well as honing any of the following skills:>Programming / understanding computer science better for gamedev>Content Creation / Livestreaming / YouTube>Drawing (something i've always loved but just simply sucked so i dropped it for years)Last year was really rough for me, and with the way the first week and a half of the year has gone by, it feels less like the objective is making it out of 2026 alive, but instead proving that I'm worth something. I was able to make myself healthier on my weight loss journey, so I know I can do it by the end of this year.

Convince me to download this game, i bought it for 1 euro but still haven't played it
>>730642858It's not worth playing
>>730642890I like autistically doing the same thing over and over again, i heard it's a good space trucking simulator.
>>730642858It's super grindy, and sometimes flying to a ""nearby"" star system you can't jump to since its so close takes a solid 30 minutes, I just minimized and browsed /a/ while waiting once.

I love how the problem (for some) is the cost, not the over dependency on specs (for most)Games need to scratch some itch in the brain and be the gaming equivalent to a kid seeing a bright and colorful cartoon for the first time, and it's absolutely ridiculous. They're supposed to be toys, for fun.Also, >>730624581They are bad, and unless you're one of the several tens of thousands blinded by making a decent living because of them, you either can't or choose not to see. Go fuck yourself, you enabling douche
>>730642635I hope that this makes AAA games shift away from having the highest fidelity graphics and refocus on gameplay. Probably gonna get monkey-pawed as big budget games just becoming better at embedding gambling or some novel way of doing microtransactions that people love.I'd much rather have more new games that have cool unique art styles than just more hyperrealistic movieslop.
>>730642792I want the dev time to be cut honestly. Games are taking too long to make.
>>730624581>billionaires LE BADYes. They are.

I like this. If Steam supports ARM, then I could play PC games from Steam on my phone too.
>>730641513I'm willing to bet it is. They didn't put ARM in the new Steam Machine because FEX is still experimental. People buying the machine expect stability, but the people buying the frame are willing to experiment.
>>730642185The industry is bogged down by licesces. Only AMD and Intel are allowed to produce x86 chips. Moving to ARM would allow for a ton of competition
you can already run steam games on your phone with the gamesaaaaaar gamehub app.but you actually have to download the real one because they're about 100 fakes. gamesir has the real one on their own site.I played megabonk for a while but haven't installed much else. also used a bluetooth controller.
>>730642363So is ARMThis is why people want RISC-V
>>730634530So what? Is this going to be Steam's version of the Winlator?

Did 2.0 and Phantom Liberty change /v/'s opinion on Cyberpunk 2077?
>>730640906I liked it from release, the jank reminded me of early NV and STALKER. CDPR was never going to make the hyper autistic crpg that feels like an actual game of the tabletop so I knew what it was going in.Solid 8/10 game the whole time
>>730641519I have 100h in this game and I have no idea wtf you're talking about
>>730640906they polished it a lit but its still fundamentally not an rpg and over time ive come to accept it and just enjoy it for what it is but i think cdpr are scum for how much they overpromised and at its like a 7/10 even at its best
>>730642772I assume he means the Phantom Liberty intro missions which are cringe
>>730642819enjoy it for what it is but i think cdpr are scum for how much they overpromised and at its like a 7/10 even at its bestid say 8 because of the production quality and decent writing at times but yeah that pretty much sums up CP2077
Literal generations of video games have been lost to shitty Unreal and Unity lighting The best looking games are still the ones that had to invent their own lighting solutions and rely on artistry rather than engine light
>>730641993>The devs are still controlling where the lights are and what the properties of the lights are.And the player controls where the camera is in relation to the light source. Bounce lighting on dynamic light sources means the player is not seeing the lit textures/materials in a single, controlled lighting environment. Dynamically lit scenes are visually inconsistent as a result, that's the price you pay for letting the renderer do the lighting simulation. You can set up the lights all you want but unless you control where the camera is at all times, you effectively have no control over how the player actually sees the scene.What games do right now with lighting is like animating a perfect frame of traditional animation and then taking a picture of it in random outdoor light conditions instead of just lighting it correctly. Simulated, realtime lighting looks super cool in practice but it makes the viewing experience of the actual content worse most of the time.
>>730641724Baked lighting is still a thing you know
>>730642257>And the player controls where the camera is in relation to the light source.Like literally every game with a non-fixed 3D cam>Bounce lighting on dynamic light sourcesso your issue is just with light sources that move?>Dynamically lit scenes are visually inconsistent as a resultI mean if you have the lights moving all over the place sure.>What games do right now with lighting is like animating a perfect frame of traditional animation and then taking a picture of it in random outdoor light conditions instead of just lighting it correctlyNot really. Games still have lighting artists manually placing and fine tuning the positions of every light in the scene to make sure it looks as good as possible, even lights you likely don't even notice are there. You act as if most devs are just putting in a single directional light, turning on lumen, and that's it, but that's not really the case except maybe in steam shovelware.
>>730642818>Games still have lighting artists manually placing and fine tuning the positions of every light in the scene to make sure it looks as good as possible>We paid a guy to professionally replicate every visibility and lighting issue and distraction that happens with real-world lightingAmazing. It's like we went back in time to when movies added screen flare effects so they could actively look WORSE.I can't stand looking at the visual noise and garbage that comes from having lighting effects like HDR or ambient occlusion. Games unironically looked better when you just set that shit on fullbright and painted the parts of the scene you want to look darker with a darker color.
>>730637442>the visual bloat
Is this game good if I'm not a Klonoa autist? I just want to know if it's a fun action RPG. It seems like the criticism against it just comes from weird canonfags.
What species is Klonoa anyway?
>>730624943>if I'm not a Klonoa autistWhy do you have to pretend you're not making these threads daily
>>730642431He's a sick little weirdo with weird ideas about the canon.

What is the greatest game in this genre?What is your favorite, even?Metroidvanias thread.
>>730642302do NOT have annoying ass enemies or terrain that slow down the player all game; give them upgrades that allow them to traverse with zero issuehave variety, not everything should be fucking flat like a team ladybug game. as long as you aren't falling down all the time and losing 30 seconds of climbing it's goodhave a good variety of environments and colors in those environments, with fitting music, even if it's ambient
>>730632530Man I'm all over. I've played a few that weren't on this list (like Eldritchvania), but I see a lot that are on the backlog.Green means I generally enjoyed it, red means I didn't.

It wont be a /v/ metroidvania thread without a bunch of contrarians trying to shit on Hollow Knight.
>>730642969hollow knight is a supremely overrated gameit's pretty good but a lot of the bosses are really uninteresting and the upgrades are not really that imaginativesilksong however blows most other metroidvanias out of the water, it's excellent
Do you like gore in your videogames? What's the goriest game you've ever played?
>>730642287There is a single attack that can make an enemies head bloodlessly fly into the sky, that is really tame and not deserving of an M.
>>730639684Splatterhouse 2 is also hard as hell, even if you're abusing save states.
>>730642054The green blood thing started mostly in Resident Evil and was to appease the Japanese censors, IIRC.

>>730642317This can't be...I could have sworn Avellone vocally hated romance in games. But all I could find on the Internet was some interview of him saying >I’d examine interpersonal relationships from another angle and I wouldn’t confine it to love and romance.J Sawyer is the romanceable character hater huh? Well damn>designers making a character who was a gigantic pussy that was wrong about everything that looked like him.Holy kek! And I thought Kingdom come devs were based
>>730642757Arcade Ganon is Soiyers Self-insert donut steel.
>>730642765That quote sounds a lot like Sawyer.Yeah though, there is this giant pussy militia dude on Dantooine who wants to just get along with the roving band of marauders who dindu nuffin and wants you to help him replace his boss who thinks is being too mean to the marauders. Even if you help him, the game basically means ignores it and puts the old boss back in charge anyway. He looks a lot like what Sawyer used to look like.
