based and genetically accurate, ConcernedApe literally downgraded all the characters for what reason? they went from unique pixel charm to flat, over-polished default sprites. early Maru had that warm Earthbound vibe, now she looks like a Sims 4 mod after 10 energy drinks.

no, iirc clementine was from an earlier marriage and they split shortly after clementine was born, iirc the devs explained something along those lines at some point
ed always knew that clementine wasn't his bio daughter, but it's unclear if clementine knew that herself

If base campaign is too much, try Lost Valley for free form adventure or Palace of Ice for high level adventure similar to Dragon Age Origins.

not defending the shitty fog that's equally applied throughout the image but the problem with doing that is that it makes the background pop out so much the foreground becomes hard to distinguish

the people who make video games now don't have the same combination of money and passion the ones back then did. they either have money and make soulless money extractors, have no money and find a way to make a soulless money extractor, or they have passion but not enough money to make the game they really want.

>>730858331
baitpost but i'll give you a real answer because sleep isn't coming to me tonight
because people do not give a shit about dynamic or living worlds like you might find in Stalker or Oblivion, and happily settle for the thinly veiled illusion thereof
generally via story stepping, instances, and scriptrouted events based on the player's choices that have hard, specific outcomes
oftentimes, they prefer this because the game and their session of play is more stable and isn't interrupted by random bullshit that kills an important NPC or something and they have to load, or, in worse cases, crashes the game
not to mention, you're often looking at older game living/dynamic worlds through the lens of maybe 5+ years of official patches, and are also probably grabbing community patches which tend to shore up the rest of it, most of these games on release would basically crash every 30 minutes

and then there's just the technical debt of such a system on the development end,
having a bunch of NPC agents running around doing random shit is hard to design anything coherent around
holy fuck EDGE CASES there are so many edge cases where the NPC will probably try to do something that crashes the game, stalker was notorious for this and most updates and patches to the game were just fixing stupid NPC bullshit
and then someone reports the crash, now you get to diagnose something that is not easily reproducible, not really predictable, you might need their save, and there's a good chance whatever crashed them, won't happen on your end so the report is completely moot
and again, you're going through all this headache, writing all this NPC code, for a feature that the player will likely not even notice or have any reason to care about, and would be far easier to just script specific events and encounters in for that randomly happen as the player runs around, at best they'll remember random zany bullshit NPCs might do, but that's about it
its just not worth it

>writing all this NPC code, for a feature that the player will likely not even notice

how low IQ do you have to be to NOT notice this stuff? within 30 seconds of being in Cyberpunks open world (post intro stuff) you can very easily tell the games world run almost entirely on scripted events for gang fights etc, with very little dynamic activity. You don't need to "try" and notice this stuff, its blindingly obvious and hurts immersion.

>Why didn't we get these and the moon guys in the HOMM series
Because HoMM3 was still basically working within framework of 1+2 which in turn were continuing from King's Bounty. Sure, nominally it was set in the same setting as M&M7 but only for marketing purposes and so they could reuse models. If something didn't work production wise they didn't try to crowbar it into the game. It was kind of anything goes really, what mattered is what worked for a specific game rather than autistic references to every little detail. And it was glorious. Total lorefag death.

I wanted to try both this and wizardry, but I can't find the first chapters on GOG and I'm too lazy to setup DOSbox.

I'm just going to play the games I already have, anon.

All those games I bought on sale and never touched have fueled my Steam Deck for a while now.

This is an imageboard.

For me
Got RE9 next month, showcase later today.
This has been the 1st time I have been excited for an RE game since OG RE3.
Survival horror, no fucking merchant shit, zombies following REmake 2 gameplay with RE7 puzzle and horror. Then REmake 4 action.
Finally going back to raccoon city. Looks top tier.
Then march we have crimson desert. i am not super hyped as it looks too good to be true so am waiting for raw gameplay and hope we can tone down that particle physics, but it is my type of game. Open world medieval inspired world, RPG, sword and board combat but not souls shit combat. Clearly taking elements from souls games and zelda too. Looks really good.
GTA6 later this year of course.
Though I am looking forward to street fighter 6 alex dropping soon as I am an alex main,
Marvel tokon later this year too.
I will be playing 2KXO for a bit but its pretty shit desu. Just mentioning it as its getting a full release in a few days.
I will most likely play pragmata but not gonna be a day 1 buy for me.
Capcom and sony showcases are the main events for me so I am waiting for them to see what else is releasing but i dont expect any more big releases from them before summer.
GTA6 has this year by the balls desu so we are either getting shit shadow dropped on us, summer releases or nothing at all this year.

Tides of annihilation is not coming out this year sadly

Should I finish DS1? I got about as far as where you meet Conan O'Brien before I decided the gasme wasn't likely going to get any better.

>>730854667
Probably correct

>>730854752

keep on keeping on

>>730854752
If you aren't interested in the story or characters then you probably won't enjoy it tbqh.
