Why is Neverwinter Nights completely forgetten when all the other classic DND games so fondly remembered?
>>739440498>In short, if you can’t beat an enemy or two head-on, there’s often not much you can do besides reload until you get lucky rolls.Yeah, but also, if you can't beat an emeny or two head-on, you fucked up. That's on you.
>>739440582>That's on you.Sometimes the module throws you a curve ball. What can you do besides reload and pray they don't roll high?
>>739441230That depends on the module and your build, no?
>>739399440All the Chads from the private server MMO NWN community don't give a fuck and have wives and kids now.
>>739438230i like to call RTwP "real-time with suggestions" because you can't *really* micro every character all the time.
>no news for 8 months>already forgotten by everyone including nintendoIt's gonna flop, isn't it?
>>739431007>nigger protagonist>switch 2 exclusiveYeah
>>739441619>>739441468Who posted all the mutilated porn, what happened to that Anon. Biggest schizo on the sight. FE was brutal.
>>739441636He thinks its an apple, too poor to know what an actual apple filename looks like. Low IQ post all around.
hilda brainwashing threads were kind of fun. it was like playing wheres waldo with porn images
>>7394422843h chicks are so ugly and annoying idk how so many people became obsessed with them. I would have to kill myself if my highschool was as annoying as garret mach
30 hours in. Playing with randoms fucking sucks. Why is it so rare to find good players? Everybody keeps dying or doesn't know where to go, or doesn't know which bosses are too high level to kill
How do you play Scholar effectively? Analysis takes too long, you run out of items pretty quick, your poke is weak af. Ultimate is it cool with multiple enemies.
>>739440550He not friends. Lolling. Losser.
Can't relate, I am doing another 6 runs today and adding 6 hours to this playtimeQuick attempt to sell why I like Nightreign? >It's one map (with DLC, two) so routing is very learnable even for newb>Seeds and semirandomization means the game rewards wise decisionmaking>there are 10 characters and not 1 of them feels redundant each plays a part, ultimates and char skills should just be IN whatever next game they do even single player>best bow moveset ever>the pickup and play of the 45 minutes of map into the Nightbossonly bad thing once you learn the game are the Chinese players who cheat in relics. Relics are a "bad" mechanic but they are the way the 10 characters get further customized, you add a relic that says Starts with Fire dmg or +3Fire Atk and "build" that way. >>739441215the answer is sort of? p sure you can do coop thru seamless but dont expect to invade normally and not get banned
>>739441215nah you need to boughted it to play online
>>739440550I found my experience with randoms pretty good most of the time. I lost interest in this game after beating the DLC though
Which way, white man?
I use Augmented Steam which brings ITAD to Steam store pages, so that. It seems gg.deals has a few extensions but they're all third party.
ITAD is superior on everything>But it doesn't have grey market sitesGood
>>739440668I've bought CD keys for a couple fighting games that looked like shit but I wanted to play online. Generally, I check the price on Steam, and if that's more than I want to pay, I just don't.
are you gonna a) get it at releaseb) wait for a salec) never touch it
>>739421737lol I thought that was funny too. He sounded offended but his retort only confirmed what they were saying>>739433117It is more of an RPG than a 2D Zelda game, though. A more accurate comparison would be the Mana games, which, for whatever it's worth, the team confirmed is closer to what they had in mind than Zelda.
>>739421737It's a little sad honestly. I'd think Vinny would realize by now that just about anything he does will have SOME audience no matter what. Not every game is gonna do fuckin Sunday stream or cozyslop numbers, sometimes you're just gonna have to bite the bullet and play other games you wanna play and accept that you'll """only""" get like 2k viewers instead of 7-10k.
>>739435832I mean whats the difference? Voice acting?
>>739403869maybe in 10 years japan will still be 10 years behind indie studios
playing the switch 2 version and it feels....off? wish i had my PS5 with me right now to have a side by side difference but im away from civilization right now.
Thoughts on asymmetrical pvp?
>>739441170I really want a sim ant reboot
I really want a 99 vs 1 game99 soldiers figjing a Godzilla size monster.it has a million health and bullets lower his HP by one. Soldiers can use tanks and jets and other vehicle . Monster can destroy facilities to stop spawning vehicles each soldier can respawn 10 ties max

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>739440693YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
Chadley is based and Chadley haters are fucking retarded.He's another rebel Hojo experiment supporting the party with materia and intel, he's responsible for giving us almost every summoning materia we can get our hands on.
>CHADly is returningThat questline in Rebirth make it seem like he's going to become a villain though. I expect him to turn on us in the Midgar raid.
>>739440693>We understand that many fans are fond of ChadleyHuh? This is a joke right? No one cares about this character.Do people actually like Chadley?
>>739442129yes for some fucked up reason he is massively popular among japanese fans
Soulslikes are inherently fair in a Nietzschean, pre-Christian sense of the word. The better you are, the easier they are. But that's just a direct input - output equation. That's just skill. The Nietzschean factor comes in, when Soulslikes reward skillfull players with more souls, levels and consumables than bad players. Demon's Souls does this best, despite being the easiest Soulsgame, because the only way to get healing items is by killing enemies. IF you consistently clear levels with net negative healing items, you will be rewarded with an extremely frustrating game experience and at some point you either have to figure out a way to grind and git gud or the game literally softlocks you permanently.
>>739439891The nigga is just throwing around words wantonly with no regard for their actual meanings.
>>739440417>le old people are retarded If an older person can understand the mechanics of Soulslikes to play it then they can understand taking different approaches to succeed or simply brute forcing their way to victory.
>>739440919Yeah, but that's my entire point. Soulsgames aren't supposed to be these ultra brutal experiences, where you grind and hit your head against the wall for 3 hours, until you finally beat it. You can win that way, but it's inherently better to win by just playing the game at a higher skill level and effortlessly breezing through the content. That is what the game rewards.
>>739439891Christcuck 'thoughts'' come from the desert o algo
>>739440417softlocking isn't being too bad to beat a game retard

THE TRIFORCE SAYS SHIT.
How do you pick your vidyer names, anon? Something cool? Something lore accurate? Something stupid? Or are you just a "Pietro_Rodriguez_1998@gmail . com" type of guy
>>739441082>? Or are you just a "Pietro_Rodriguez_1998@gmail . com" type of guyplease don't post my email like thisI've done my name backwards at one point, but quickly realised that may not have been terribly intelligent
i name myself something cat related because i like cats and i really vibe with almost every cat.
>>739441082My original email was based on my advance wars OC army. My more recent one is some manner of "cat", like my steam name which I update once a month.
>>739441082XxX__AdolfWasOkayHeKilledHitler__XxX
>literally nothing happens>when you activate the alien observatory at the end, the game just stops and says "thank you for playing"what the fuck is this unfinished slop
>>739440114what do the words "early access" mean to you?
>>739440114idk just bought it because my favourite streamers and tiktokers were playing it lol
>>739440114This unfinished slop is what you get when you spend five years figuring out who can scam who the hardest
>>7394403468 years of development for an okay game with 0 mechanics is fucking deranged
>>739440114It's not unfinishedIt's not started at allThere is nothing, there is no gameIf you don't listen to the negress and the other token mystery meat voices and just go to the objectives there is like 2h of "gameplay" or so
Close enough, welcome back E3
>>739441531You could at least try and come up with a snappier buzzword instead of trying to force "pcpoojeet" which doesn't really sound fun to say or read or anything.
>>739438294>Nintendo>real vidyaThey've been releasing mid turds after mid turds lately, don't kid yourself.
>All this mention of poo and turdsThe schizoposter's barely disguised fetish.
>>739440932I am, but I'm not 14 anymore. Everything regarding vidya feels diferent to me nowadays. So yes, I'm patiently waiting for GTA 6 but at the same time I'm still capable of managing my "hype".
>>739441675>>739441751aww already feeling called out huh, pcpoojeets
Looking back, we were way too harsh on this game.
>>739440016>>739441584cards are for fat nerds with social anxiety
>>739435109no, i'm tired of l4d clones at this point. especially the special infected pins that only teammates can free you from. if you're going to do a co-op shooter, give me a good kf instead. or something unique like hd2.
>>739435109No, it was pretty bad at first. Specials were incredibly spongy, appeared in trios, and could spawn basically right next to the survivors. The only really functional builds were melee and speedrunning, and melee got nerfed shortly after launch.
>>739441847>give me a good kfThis. Have there been any games that took after KF1?
>>739435109yeah way too harsh and the card system was great to, once they removed that the game was dead.
All you do is fucking complain.Post a game that you had FUN with in the last month.
>>739441850Last game I beat was Fear and Hunger. Gets good once you have a party up and running. I understand the "trial and error" complaints for the early game. It will filter you if you don't git gud.
>>739441850Metal Gear Acid 1 & 2.
Crash 4 is kicking my ass but it's a good time. The flashback tape levels are perfection.
>>739441850Dark Souls 1.
>>739441850I only have a switch 2 and Nintendo forgot to release games that are fun. So I don't bother
Tell me honestly /v/, what am I in for?
>>739364390You'll just forget...
chaos...
>>739413567Holy shit, a way to make Red Mage usable? What wizardry is this?
>>739441667They already had killer gameplay, the plot didn't need to hit this hard.
>>739441976When one of the writers is this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kazushige_Nojima you know there's going to be at least some good story parts
>To understand why this is a bad thing, we have to confront a hard truth that few people seem to want to face about the Souls games, including FromSoft themselves. But here it is: the combat is nothing remarkable. Before you get your codpiece in a twist, keep in mind: that doesn't equate to mediocre gameplay. As a whole, it's hugely elevated by generally great level design, player freedom, load-out options, and some unique supplemental mechanics like World Tendency, covenants and Insight.>But in terms of actual complexity, there's not much going on. There's not much *depth*. And that wouldn't be a problem. Except that the series has increasingly leaned on its action elements more and more as time has gone by, while refusing to implement basic character action mechanics such as dodge offsetting, jump cancelling, juggling or even a basic combo meter for scoring. Which leaves you with rolling as your one and only reactive action.>So prepare to roll, again and again, and again and again. And again. Did rollslop fans ever manage to come up with a response to this?
>>739424339>more complex = more gooderRetard character action/fighting game fan spotted.
>>739424587>>739427949It's so fucking obvious that Dark Souls marketing itself as THE hardcore game is why Fromsoft became so successful. It basically became the de facto dividing line between casuals and "real gamers". And it's why the fanbase goes berserk if you ever dare criticize the games in any way. It was extremely revealing when a full third of Elden Ring's quests were broken on release, like straight up not completable, and NO ONE called this out until it was quietly patched a month later. ANY other game and people would lampoon the devs for this but everyone was so fucking terrified of getting "skill issued" because they missed something, that they just didn't say anything. We've reached full "pretentious art hipster" status.I think it's cool that Souls games are based around a slower, defensive pace of combat. That makes them distinctive. But they haven't really developed this style at all. They've basically just become a gimped version of faster paced action games. Because they can't figure out how to design a boss AI that actually understands positioning and tactics, they've made those things less relevant for the player too by adding over-the-top move sets and ridiculous amounts of tracking and input reading. Not to mention enemy attacks STILL clip through walls so there's no way to use the terrain to your advantage. You can understand why other devs who actually put this effort into their game are miffed by Fromsoft's outrageous success.
He's not wrong. Elden ring's enemy and boss design feels like they were assuming the PC had a much bigger kit. I don't mind the games at all but it feels like they've got every drop out of the formula.
>>739424339>subhuman niggers are still using this baitHe’s 100% right though, souls combat is extremely simple and rote. You know, minus the subhuman additions.
>>739431859Very weak ragebait.
Why does absolutely nothing match the soul of classic Monster Hunter?
They just don't make em like they used to...
Would he body most of /v/ in fightan? I think it would be a very cognitive shattering moment for people on this board.Their brain will be shattered in a ton of pieces cut to precise after losing to this peanut butter complexion gigachad blessed with the God-gene.
>>739417569I think he could beat me in everything except for honor and melee; maybe soul Calibur 2 I would take some games off him.My expertise is RTS, a genre too big brained for this banana monkey.Even quake 3 / CPMA i would prob win 30 to -2
>>739418147Dsp has caller him out multiple times but ltg is too much of a pussy to accept. In Dale's heart, he KNOWS he could possibly lose and he would never hear the end of it. Also, it would definitely come down to which game. Dale hates 6 so he won't play that. There is no way dsp would ever go back to playing 4 or 5 so idk lol. Its just a circle of confusion and excuses that will never happen
>>739420438of course this fag takes the tweet down. Can't believe this dumbass actually did this lmao

Wait so Mixtape is actually good? Critic reviews are one thing but even user reviews agree it's great.
>>739440852green text doesnt make you correct.the game is a lgbtq reimagining of the 90s.
Relooted, though less reviews, has a better score.
>>739441039>someone who hasn't played it criticizes it because it is one's natural wont to be skeptical of such an overt grab for money and acclaim as this game's ad campaign >HURF DURF U DIDNT PLAY>someone actually played it >HURF DURF NO1 FORCED J00Firmly with the chuds on this one, you dickriders are far worse. Game looks like shit, the company clearly bought reviews, they aren't getting my money because they were never entitled to it, and is getting the opposite of praise because it's cinematic slop that's dragging the entire medium down for the sake of a bunch of Covid-born gamers who can't interface with games on any level deeper than a storytelling medium because they're shitters. Stop gaying up my hobby, go watch a fucking movie.
This not-game could've cruised by as one of many artsy-fartsy things, but the devs and publisher and the nepobaby daughter all decided to be utterly shameless in their shilling. It's like when a woman makes it known on the news that she's marrying her rapist: your immediate instinct is to blurt out how much of a whore she is.
>user reviews agree it's greatbecause it's so shit it selects its audience (retards) thoroughly, and no one normal would get tricked into buying it. if they did they'd leave a negative review of course
