Just got Fire Emblem EchoesWhat am I in for?
>>736412659looking back at customizable MCs, they were so cringy. Glad they're done with them.
>>736412823we don't know that yet
>>736412823how customizable is the heroes MC? or do you never see it?
>>736408725>The story and characters are so fucking bad.As someone who is very slow to warm up to anything post gba and only just recently played through engage expecting the worst I really didn't mind it that much. They made a trade off and decided we'll put most of our ressources into gameplay. Going in with zero expectations I was positively surprised honestly because they didn't even try to do something they couldn't have done with the little ressources they decided to put into writing. So if you just take character interactions as mildly enjoyable cringy slice of life and the story as a means to end you'll find yourself positively surprised at keypoints that do stand out like Morion. I think engage is mostly just considered so offensively bad because of wrong expectations and the vtumor artstyle.
>>736414402ignore it. its just some 3hrt crying engage.
I play rouge and gambit and i can't seem to get a win. i feel like my teammates can't shoot any flyers like ironman so i'm always getting shot. also with gambit i usually get like 20k healing is that an alright amount?
>>736413487Care to elaborate because from what I can tell the healer meta has only gotten worse and the level of screen clutter has become absurd
>>736413772Sounds like skill issue.>healer metaDont know what that is. Healers can heal a lot by design, since release day and a bunch of them are really fun to play (including the latest one White Fox)>Care to elaborateLots of QoL changes, lots of content on monthly pace and the latest patch universally reduced all ults gains by 20% - a godlike change
>>736411386you mean that guy who got stabbed?
Early look at an Elden Ring set being built for the film by Alex Garland.
don't worry it will be nothing like the gameER was mediocre btw
>>736412009A prequel would definitely be easier to make a coherent story for.
>>736401570>a movie about a game that has dogshit story, but good gameplaywhy
>>736403404Paint her blue and give her a hat
>>736403868who's "they"?
I want herI want my sperm in her tummyI want her to pop my kid out of her virtual pussy and raise a family with her
>>736406520>cheats on you with another player like 10 minutes into the gamelol
What is this?
>>736407079won
>>736414280"has-been fomo" no one cares about
>>736414197But enough about Monika
The weekend is here so what fanart have you drawn?
>>736327742i was asked by a new member to doodle albina from limbus company
>>736413006I suppose. I kinda wish there was a clearer guide but eh
>>736401562>>736401615A-are you trying to serenade the thread or hex us?
>>736405825Her back is so sexy, great job
>>736412746kind of interested at this idea that people would have. i have never really taken time to draw lots of cubes alone or anything of that nature before. i thought that fundamentals were more about breaking down the forms of what you wanted into shapes that are so simple you do not need to practice them so much?
>>736413535you get one shot by the turret and get less social credit points
>>736411562>>736412004>>736413535>>736414196What the fuckSo the game forces you to stay in lane? Why???
>>736414298it makes pro play uninteresting and some people don't like itthis tranny game is fully optimized for pro play with 0 fun allowed
>>736414298so leaguebabs can't accidentally bowl into another lane
Horrible game. I miss it.
No more cracks, just bypasses. What a sad ending to what was once a great scene.
I don't think the scene's dead, it's just in need of some new autism.
>>736414159Just need the right CEO to think he can replace the wrong autist with AI/indians.
>>736414159the bar has risen astronomically compared to the '90syou didn't have games running on VNs and phoning home back in the day. or accounts that could get banned, leaving you with a paperweight
>>736389953Then end yourself loser
>>736389953I don't care about the future of piracy, because I don't care about the future of games. I don't care to play any of the DEI slop of the last decade that's meant to mold zoomers into zogbots first and foremost. I haven't even played all the games I downloaded from Myrient the other day yet. I'm well prepared to hold out another decade without playing any new games. The faggots deploying Denuvo are worried about me not paying them? I don't even want their shit for free, my time is worth more than that.
>Gets revealed and my knee jerk reaction is "wow a minecraft clone about 15 years too late, yawn">Everyone i know gushes about it to a degree i have not seen since Expedition 33>Okay fine i'll give it a try>Tfw its the perfect balance of whimsical slice of life and melancholy ennui to an almost 1980's Ghibli-esque level>Absolutely eats up my time and put every other game aside to devour it with all my free time, even got honestly a little choked up at the ending after finding the full story out via exploration>My biggest complaints all sum up as "i just want more of it".>Ends up being the game that made all my friends finally buy a Switch 2 when all the shit like Mario Kart turning into open world sloppa failed.Much as i would like to see them take this formula to something like Etrian Odyssey, Monster Hunter or Final Fantasy or something i would absolutely love a sequel set in Jhoto or Alola. Was anyone else surprised this ended up being peak sovl?
>>736413803Scyther looks so weird with his little head
>>736413803>Was anyone else surprised this ended up being peak sovl?No, it was pretty obvious from the reveal that this was gonna be peak. It was sad to see how many people have not taken the Dragon Quest Builders pill. You should give the sequel a try, it's the more expansive of the two. Pokopia has it beat in vibes and charm, but I still think DQB2 is the better game overall even though I'm more attached to Pokémon.
>>736413803>Pokemon fans when they get to play any other genre of games besides the main game snoozefest
>>736414364lol yes
>>736414084Builders has an interesting hook of "what if the hero in DQ1 did take the Dragon Lords offer and side with him and the cost was people losing the ability to imagine or create new things?" but it ultimately, like most Dragon Quest games, abandons it midway in favour of same shit different day.Pokopia sticks to its idea of "humans destroyed the environment and abandoned the earth, leaving the pokemon in the PC storage system till the world was habitable again" from start to finish, but with a nice twist that its actually Team Rocket being the reason Ditto was released and why the worlds being revived at all.Both had that "visit a place from a game you played as a kid, but now in ruins" stuff going on but i feel Pokopia actually pulls off the balance of melancholy and upbeat slice of life far better whereas due to the nature of nobody knowing what they lost in Builders its largely "WELL THATS WELL WIERD INNIT BRUV? AH WELL, TOIME TO BUILD THIS BIG SHIELD AND THATS FER TRUE" and it just doesn't hit as hard as the whole Tangrowth story you get from his lines and Oaks notes left behind.To say nothing of all the stuff like "the reason you are finding CD's is because AI datacenters consumed so many resources music streaming became a thing of the past and owning a Compact Disc that didnt charge a sub became a novelty for our great great grandkids as the world slowly became uninhabitable". That stuff hits hard, all the more so because Ditto cannot read so you know all this stuff but the pokemon never do.
Why aren't there any video games based on the Spanish Civil War?
>>736413996
>>736414210Anarcho-syndicalism (essentially just a different flavor of communism)
>>736414094German campaign in Panzer General 2 opens up with your troops helping Francos side win the war. But its like a tutorial mission.Theres more if you mod it.
>>736414210Destroying systems. They're just pure terrorists that should be put down.
>>736413996Is that where all the Aztec gold the conquistadors took went?
exfil enjoyers, how are the runs going this weekend?
>>736400568it ain't marathons fault you have shit taste
Wtf is an exfil? Is that when you bust a nut in your ex?
>>736388569half the playerbase is on 4chan?
F*&^%*$^&* YOU I HAD FUN- TheBurntPeanut
>>736412729The inventory wipe might decimate the game honestly
Don't talk to me, peasants.
>>736413989But enough about Tears of the kingdom.
can we just let all CD threads die and get another comfy thread going thanks
>>736413361>He strongly recommends itReally? People kept predicting here he would absolutely shit on it lmao
Im 20 hours in and have no idea what the story isBut its fun
>>736414457FUCK i missed his armor
Why is gun smithy, electrical, and explosives powerful?
>>736412034Grenades aren't cool?
>>736412002>dex is a much better stat than perceptionYou may as well max prowling and throw out of stealth at somewhat dangerous enemies. The biggest problem with tech throwing is the lack of a good weapon until you get one from the easter egg area.
>>736412420the best throwing weapons are the magic one and the aerial decapitator
>>736413043>and the aerial decapitatorThat one is cool
>>736398020why the hell are you naked?
The Mega Man Star Force legacy collection has been out for a week now, how's that playthrough coming along? have you beaten any game yet?discuss the series
>>736414123Did you obtain Card Finder in the space station? It works so viruses always drop cards regardless of ranks. This will make obtaining the Black Hole chips much easier. They're vulnerable to sword cards and poison panels if want to know how to kill them, Wolf Woods cards are great for the job.
>>736413894Shit like PAs and styles kinda come back in SF3 but I still kinda agree with you. I still think Star Force is pretty good, but it has lesser combat and a weaker identity compared to Battle Network.
>>736405673Never played a mega man game, should I play this, or get one of the older ones on sale?
>>736414397Yeah, start with Star Force. It would be neat to hear from a person who did.
How would you fix this franchise?
Stop milking it already and end the modern day story.
Hire a solid writer and design an ezio/desmond 2.0 that we'll play with for a few titles. These new protagonists are absolutely ass and not memorable at all
public domain it
Make an exciting, character-driven game about working as an assassin in a historical setting again, instead of these open world fantasy RPGs with a wrong logo that they've been churning out for the past decade.
>>736413723by making Unity 2 with real stealth and separating RPG games and making one with fantasy creatures instead of leaving that shit for DLC
With SoD finished, do you have any hope for Classic +?
>>736412634>my account under threat of being deleted, and being banned for what i type in private chats?So like Blizzard? Enjoy your pride parade, faggit
>>736412850Absolutely, retail is quite possibly one of the worst games ever made. Turtle could be made by Satan, I would still recommend it over anything made by Blizzard.
>>736409134woke women
>>736399178/thread. nu-blizz is filled with insufferable, faggy, incompetent hacks
>>736412850retail fucking sucks though? the writing is deviantart tier, they hamfist in politics and girlbosses, and the graphics are a jarring and tasteless. pure tripe
>game has evil playthrough or "freedom" to do anything>you can kill, steal, but... rape? NOOO YOU CAN'T DO THATwhy are video games like this?
>>736364234technically you can do anything as dark urge, but the game does not actually support or reflect those actions. For instance, you can do horrible shit and kill legions of random civilians, and there will be no real change in dialogue or relationships. You can immediately make out and fuck your lover after killing children as if it didn't happen. They wrote Dark urge with "resist evil" in mind, that route has the most dialogue and breaks immersion the least.
>>736413691>while rape can'tYou definitely can water down rape, hentai artists do it all the time.
>>736413691>Because violence can be watered down, while rape can'twomen water down rape all the fucking time when they write their rape romances
>>736364668>killing can be righteous>rape is never rightUhhh...wat? If it's justified to kill someone why would it not be justified to rape them first?
>>736413691>the man vampired billionairely across the room at my tied up form, his manhood glistening in a dark-triad manner
>got 10k old demi gods>got actual generals>all fought in multiple wars>give this young fuckboi (arator) control of the armiesWhy? Will the devs ever stop the Windrunner self-insert wank?
>>736412019>all old guard male characters are either dead, retconned, character assassinated, turned into literal cucks, or all of the above>all female characters are girlbosses who can do no wrong Warcraft is dead, bury it. Anyone who still plays this game is mentally ill
>>736412019That's a boy?
>>736412572first game that appeared when I typed "game with pride events" into google
>>736412019>WoW>2026Xir this is not your dilation station, mayhaps you want to be on /vg/ with the rest of the xisterhood?

Why aren't you playing Sekiro?
>>736413736Yes, keep shitting your pants in a thread you don't like. Maybe you'll understand faster if words are too difficult for you. But your passive aggressive baits are not as transparent as you think. Snarky replies are all you'll get.
>>736413871does this win the fight?
>>736414106Never have I said that I don't like this thread. I'm just trying to spark honest discussion.
>>736414151funnily enough yes, the combat music disappearing is a huge tell
>>736414189It's an implicit truth taken from your passive aggressive stance of baiting from the very start and complete lack of on topic engagement.
Is it actually that bad?
>>736408752Yes, why do you think even normies don't talk about it but you still hear about 8 all the time and that shits from the Wii U?
>>736412083As a MK player, I played MKW with my friends who don't play MK and I smoked them every track due to boosts/drifting/shortcuts/etc. You do NOT go faster or win by just driving like a baby retard.
>>736408910I don't understand what the fuck Nintendo was thinking doing absolutely nothing with the open world. I feel like at the minimum we should have been driving to the various Grand Prix, Time Trials and Knockout Tours with the P-Switches serving as diversions on your journey to the desired track.
>>736408752It's not bad, it's mediocre, which is worse
>>736408752If they didn't release the non-bundle version at $80 there would be 95% less complaining about it. That's what it's mostly about.
