Did you play any games this week?Are you excited for any upcoming games?What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?
i cant afford rent anymore
>>719754435but surely you can afford Silksong, right?
>Bleak FaithI had given it a try years ago and it was too clunky for me, but not long ago I was convinced to give it a new try and thank god I did, because it truly is one of my dream games made real, even if it's still somewhat clunky in many ways.
>Ol' reliable Left 4 dead 2Been playing lots of final fantasy 2. Just beat the tower and got the ultima spell tome. Kinda hated how unbalanced ff2s leveling and wild monster set up was.>be in starting area >go a cunt hair step too far>encounter enemies immune to your weapons
>>719754525nah im just going to keep playing wc3
Playing the new Story of Seasons and it's great. On the last boss of Big Gay 3 with my friends on Honour mode, once we beat it tonight we will start up Divinity OS 2Going to pick up Hot Shots Golf tomorrow and play that and Warriors Orochi 3 DE until FF Tactics remake.Feels good. I like video games.
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?I have been playing a ton of deadlock. I am new so I suck ass but Abrahams and mcgnnis are fun. I have also been doing a ton of A.I porn now>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Silsong, gta6, onimusha and okami>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Almost all 3D era gta games, call of jaurez gunsliner and TF2>>719754869some times the clunkiness adds charm to it
>>719754525I legitimately thought it was going to cost like 40 bucks so I set aside that much. But now that it's half maybe I'll pick myself up a case of beer to drink while I play
>>719754407Having a shitty week. Gastritis is back, bashed my knee river surfing, smoked out of my Music festival, full body MRI came back clean so nobody knows why my feet are going numb when I sit, lost 828k in 48 hours.Least I got Silksong well Im trapped in my house. Thank God for that.
>>719755248>lost 828k in 48 hours.wait what?
>>719754407Played through every map in L4D2 with my casual/non-gamer gf with bots/randoms. It's nice to see her have fun with things that I like sometimes.
>>719755305Exchange rate and SOXL
>>719754407I played Octopath Traveller 2 for about six hours at work yesterday; never beat it so I started over. Also played a couple hours of Turret Girls as it looked decent and it is. Mostly I just play Heroes of the Storm and Honkai Star Rail for all of its daily.
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?I played Grim Fandango for 2 hours on Labor Day. Since then no.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Silksong of course, but I have quite a few games on my wishlist coming soon like Tormented Souls II and Mina the Hollower>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Dark Souls 1, lately
>>719754435Wait, are there really 30+ dudes who still rent?
>>719754407I'm a little excited for Pokémon legends za. Don't know if I should like or abhor mgs3s 5th re-release delta edition. I am baffled Sony hasn't done anything for mgs4 yet
>>719754435My 60 year old uncle is starving to death because he makes too much for welfare/food stamps but has to skip meals to make rent
>>719755667most people in the US
>>719755795I just read an article on this. The government wants him to lie.https://www.theargumentmag.com/p/the-honesty-tax
>>719754435don't worry bro once they kick me out to """""renovate""""" (jack the rent up 2x because rent raises are limited by law) I'll be right there with you. This'll be the third time it's happened, it's so predictable it's comedy now
>>719754407>PLAYANGot a switch 2 to play mario kart with kids/wife. Mostly using it to play Wind Waker. Im really impressed by how well it stands up. The art style made it timeless. I thought Id toss it an hour in like Sunshine but it seems to be sticking.>LOOKAN FORWARDANI got the demo for Anno 117. I hope this shit is good. Downloaded the demo lastnight and passed out before I could play it. Going to see if its any good.>OLD RELIABALANFactorio, its in the back of my mind because I need to fucking finish it. I need to launch a ship to end it but Ive been dicking around making legendary everything instead. I’ll probably make a fulgora holium base, upgrade nauvis finally, then FINALLY finish the game>DAD’NTaught my kid to ride a bike. Good shit
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Doom Eternal>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Ninja Gaiden 4 and Onimusha>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to? Resident Evil 4 or Metal Gear Solid 2
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?I finished Halo Reach yesterday, and with it I'm finally done with the MCC. No, I won't play 4.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Cronos just released but I'll wait for a sale. Other than Prime 4 and Pragmata, I don't really remember anything else. Ah, maybe Once Upon a Katamari. I just can't understand why people are hyping Silksong so much.>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Muse Dash, it feels so good to finally play the game at unlimited FPS after spending years playing on a laptop at 30fps and later on Switch undocked. DOKI DOKI WAKU WAKU
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Completed Xenoblade 3. Hopscotching between XC3's DLC and XC2's challenge mode>Are you excited for any upcoming games?I guess Silksong >What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?FF7FFXBattle Network 3Three HousesHades
>>719756015How do you even come across shit like this
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?I play gacha mostly everyday>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Trails FC remake>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Demon's souls
Anyone else ever feel like they are getting close to the line on spousal rape? Like she says yes, buuuuuuut
>>719754407Played Muramasa *siiiiiip* they don't make them like they used to, I tell you...
34>Did you play any games this week?Doom The Dark Ages. I'm on mission 21 on Normal difficulty. also Torchlight 2>Are you excited for any upcoming games?I wouldn't say excited, but I'll be interested in Doom The Dark Ages dlc>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?I don't have one. I wish I did
>>719756431Way too much free time with an intrest in finance/neoliberalism. Im the one who lost 828k in 48 hours.
>>71975440733>Did you play any games this week?100%'d Donkey Kong Bananza, now I'm playing 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand. I always wanted to try it. I'm a few chapters in and it's making me miss the days of AA developers bringing to life such crazy ideas with no apology.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Kirby Air Riders (wanted a sequel for 20 goddamn years) and Styx: Blades of Greed (always love a good stealth game)>What is your ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Mystical Ninja: Starring Goemon. The game that turned me into a weeb, for better and worse. It's just so full of charm; there's really nothing like it.
>>719756856Thats 828k in yen or some third world currency, right?
>>719756629I worked with a dude. At the Christmas party drunk she talked about how her sex life is just her husband grabbing her randomly through out the day, than plowing her for 2 minutes until he finished. He even admitted to it. Funniest shit ever.
>>719756969CDN, so yes.
>>719754407>39Age and alcohol fucked up my reaction time, so I just play turn based shit and easy games in general.>Did you play any games this week?Disgaea 7, hoping that the final update will be available on PS4 along Switch 2.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Preordered the Final Fantasy Tactics remaster on PS4, the Deluxe edition. It was my favorite PS1 game along Castlevania SotN, Digimon World 3 and Megaman X4.>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?I'll either beat Sonic 3 & Knuckles with the three characters, beat Digimon World 3 with a Whatever + Veemon team, or Final Fantasy Tactics where I plan something different but always end with Ramza as a ninja that punches things for 999 + 999 damage, then one of the special knights (Agrias, Meliadoul or Orlandu) and a generic Dragoon (either Rad or Lavian), both riding a Chocobo.If I'm having a really shitty week I'll get drunk and play one of my childhood games, almost always one of the NES TMNT games or Syper Mario 3
>>719757145How's Disgaea 7? I bought it but never played it. 6 just left such a bad taste in my mouth after discovering the franchise in 5.
>>719757967Jesus Christ. This has to be a joke.
>>719754407I'm playing Warframe and trying to get a decent frame that isn't fucking Rhino with his shield spam. I kinda want to play MGS 3 Demake, but UE5 frame drops annoy the piss out of me. Looking forward to getting absolutely butt fucked by Silksong. Diminished reflexes suck.
>>7197577257 is pretty much a apology for 6 and the consensus is that it's the sequel 5 should have had in the first place. It brings back weapon skills, not only it brings back the classes that were cut off in 6 but also brings back classes from older games (like the male Iron Knight and male Samurai from 2 and the male archer from 3, and the Kunoichi, Sorcerer and Angel Knight classes aren't DLC), restores weapon skills, and goes back to the 9999 level cap and stats from 5. Play it, you won't regret it.
>>719757115Brutal
>>719758135was 6 really that fucking bad?I ever only played disgaea 3 on the vita
>>719758135NTa but I want to kiss his tummy, thank you
>>719757054I do that except its one minute
>>719754525I'm saving up for a dildo
YOU’RE OUT OF TOUCHI’M OUT OF TIME
>>719758130>Diminished reflexes suck.doesnt happen due to age. brain is like a muscle, reflexes go away because you're not using them, and they'll come back if you actually make an effort. its no coincidence most of the games played in these threads are rpgs. its like that skyrim grandma that got dementia because she played nothing but really shit bethesda games.
>>719757967>this is the person owning you in COD
>>719755405I just started Octopath 2. Who is your MC this time?
>>719758202Thank you for the nta, kek.>>719758179I think they wanted the mobile market so they dumbed it down a lot. Series isn't my thing and 5 overstayed its welcome a bit but story was great. I'd recommend it.>>719758135Good to know, too bad Silk Song has me afraid to play anything new right now.
>Just beat Persona 3 for the first time>Promised Koromaru we'd be bros for life>Huh, why is everyone always crying about the ending? It's not that sad.>The last 30 fucking seconds of the ending>Mon visage
>>719758179They were pretty much done with the series after 5 and the gacha, but eventually they tried to create a hybrid game aimed at the mobile market, and after some meddling, they changed it to PC + consoles instead. It's a extremely simplified game focused on autoplay and there's no mechanics besides the evilities, characters don't even learn weapon skills. Worse of all, ProZD was a voice actor in it.
>>719754407i just wrapped up undertale neutral ending for the first time in 10 yearsi was surprised how much i still remember, nailed every spare and only died on flowey fight
>>719755405>>719758563kino game I played it a few months ago. for me it was Throne
>>719758749>kinono one worth listening to has ever used this word
>>719758112Controller aim-assist IS a joke.
>>719754435how have you not got your life in order yet dude?
>>719754407I've been doom scrolling trying to find a good exploration game, but everything is online.I want a single player game that has a huge world to wonder around and do lots of things in. Online games always attach grinds and daily missions to that.I used to bounce between MMOs and Gachas but the chore list broke me now I can't tolerate any of them anymore.The last great game I played that actually achieved what I'm looking for is Sandrock. That was pretty great, I liked crafting and upgrading the town in between adventure hunts.But it's hard to go back and play the same game again, Portia too. That's probably why I'm doomscrolling because I've already played all the good ones and the only thing left is online chores if I give in and play some new chinese gacha.I'm sort of excited for Azur Promilia but who knows when it will release and how much actual content there will be compared to the grind and chores.Damn this is long. I'm looking for exploration recs if anyone has any. I've already beat all the metroidvanias in existence, those are cool, but I'd rather have something 3d with more things to do than just fight enemies. I like crafting and building bases.
>>719758749I decided to use Hikari. What made you pick Throne?
>>719754407Playing Neverwinter Nights and thinking about when I was young and could at least still hope that things would get better. I hope I die soon.
>>719758873>I'm looking for exploration recs if anyone has anyplay a real video game unironically
>>719758804NTA but I like the short zoomie words that sum up a paragraph. Kino, soul, and best of all mid. I could describe Bravery default 2 in detail or just call it mid, and you'd have a better idea of the game with mid.
>>719758648>ProZDlmao, that's all i needed to know
>>719758202Well, it is good tummy after all
playing only one genre will just lead to depression and misery. the more genres you play the more likely it is a game will come out that will be appealing to you.
>>719758873The lack of skyrim clones blows my mind. GotD yet next to zero copycats till recently.
>>719758687>10 yearshas it really been that long?
>>719758804maybe try resetera you subhuman
>>719759120>The lack of skyrim clones blows my mindthere are plenty of games which are just mountains of hastily slapped together "content", where an incompetent dev just piles on endless crap to appear like their game is better than it actually is
i've been in pain all day, the only thing that makes it feel better is standing in the shower while it blasts lava hot water on my back, no painkillers help, antacids don't help, allergy meds don't helpi just wanna play vidya man fuck this phantom pain bullshit
>>719758962What would be a *real* game anon?Some shitty first or third person shooter? kekAn arena game where you just play the same 15 minute matches over and over and over again rather it's card battles, 2d fighters, isometric tower defense, or any other mediocrity?Nah bro I want to explore cool areas and find secrets. Build awesome bases that are both aesthetic and efficient. Too bad No Man's Sky didn't click for me, that could have been my forever game with the procedural generation if the gameplay loop was more entertaining.
>>719759412>What would be a *real* game anon?dodonpachi blissful death re:incarnation
>>719754407Replaying Splinter Cell Chaos Theory. Not sure how many times I have replayed it but I know it's a lot.I'm excited for Marvel Tokon because my two buddies who I used to play fighting games might play it and I miss playing fighting games with them irl.As far as games I always go back to, that would probably be Sonic 3 & Knuckles or Mania. The original Halo trilogy are also always good to go back to.
>>719759309BOSS, GET DOWN
>>719759309You feel it too, don’t you?
>>719759513>>719759523thanks for the laughs anons, i'm heading back to the shower...
>>719754407nope, havent gamed shit. i am slowly going more and more into debt because rent in canada is fucking dogshit insanity
>>719759127yep, 10th anniversary is in 11 days
30>Did you play any games this week?I played Prodigal. It's a 5/10 zelda-like. Great pixel art, not the best game design and really lacks sound effects. I don't recommend it but incase people are interested.https://store.steampowered.com/app/1393820/Prodigal/>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Silksong>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?WoW private servers.
>>719756158well it ran ok until it crashed randomly due to something with my gpu. gonna upgrade drivers but goddamnit this shit better fix it (have a rtx 2080)

>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Played Minecraft for 10 minutes>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Fangs of Asterkarn (Grim Dawn DLC)>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Grim Dawn and FFTA
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Hollow Knight, Disgaea. Emulated some Dolphin games, haven't stuck to any yet, Pantheon 5 is annoying me too much.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Excited is a strong word, but I'll pick up Silksong. Otherwise nah.>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Nah, not anymore. Been learning JP and electrical engineering to try and stop my mind turning into goop since my extended stay of unemployment. Upcoming surgery so there's like no point job-hunting since I'll be out for 6 weeks afterwards anyway. I just want to drink myself to death and tap out, I'm pretty done.
Pinball FX and Genshin Impact mostly, occasionally check in on my old ZZZ and star rail accounts but i have effectively quit playing those.before this i played Monster Hunter Wilds but i beat the available content and only check in for title updates while i wait for the eventual expansion before i go all in on it, don't want to burn myself out.could only do so much this prior month as i spent a fair bit of time helping my dad do important maintenance on his 1959 ford as when i helped him swap the fuel pump out i noticed the carburetor was puking gasoline all over the intake before we even started, he is blind so i had to figure shit out as i go but i got it all figured out and the car runs better than it ever has with the brand new Holley 2300, new spark plugs, new fuel filter, ect. i did take a literal shower in gasoline when i crawled under the gas tank to replace and relocated the fuel filter as it was a metal line going into a metal line so i had no way to stop fuel from pouring out and just had to work fast, soaked my back, hair, arm, and the side of my face and had to quickly pull off my shirt and hose myself off as that crap is quite the skin irritant.
>>719760214>Pinball FX and Genshin Impactthis is some actual brainrot tier stuff
>>719754435>renting in your 30samerimutt moment
>>719760276they make good filler games while i wait for game releases.also this car in the front is the one i was working on.
>>719754407Yeah, Since I'm short on time this week I'm playing quick matches of Shadowverse whenever I can, some Jupiter Hell Classic runs too and trying some builds in Buriedbornes 2 when I'm in the shitter.I'm also learning video editing and boy, it's really hard to do what you envision in your mind and you keep adding or removing effects in a single 3 frames clip, but once it clicks it's the most satisfying thing you'll feel that day, even if nobody else will ever notice it.I might have to hire an editor if I want to ever release a video though. I keep wasting the whole day just editing 5 frames to perfection and messing around with the audio without even knowing what I'm doing instead of actually making progress. Not that I'm expecting it to be seen, but if some poor sod ends up watching it, I want it to be at least tolerable.
>>71975440740+ I played CRONOS earlier but the combat is bullshit and you get swarmed by monsters each taking 3 headshots to kill, it pissed me off.I'm finding it really hard to enjoy games lately, feeling like I should be doing something more productive with my life
36 Currently doing a second mgs delta playthrough on extreme, just beat the fury.im enjoying it a lot even if i finished the original on EE a bunch of times.Eyein silksong, otherwise nothing interesting
Tried No Man's Sky again and it is just insanely boring. The collecting. The fueling. The rocks and slightly smaller rocks. The shitty combat. So on the hunt for another game. Might do a Fiesta run in FFV.
>>719754435Trump won, you lost.
>>719760214>>719760392oh, i forgot but i had been playing a fair bit of Open Roller Coaster Tycoon before i got distracted helping my dad with his car a few weeks ago.
>>719760894try a game where you actually have to learn something
>>719755667>He doesn't know
>>719760830delta worth it?
>>719760894NMS's little raygun being absolute dogshit put me off the game instantly, no idea how anyone could play that
>>719756251> Metal Gear Solid 2Same. I keep it installed cuz sometimes I feel like some quick vr missions or to go get some dog tags.
>>719760981I did. I learned No Man's Sky sucked. Tried Elite Dangerous. That's too much learning. Doesn't help basic features weren't even mapped properly and supercruise assist didn't even work.
>>719754407Played a lot of Session skate sim while waiting for Skate to come out.
>>719761079neither of those games require learning anything
>>719761050The sad thing is you can make a custom game where yoy don't need to fuel shit. But you still have to gather the same material to craft stuff. There's an option to make crafting free but that's just creative mode at that point.
>>719761000Yeah just know its the same game
>>719761146>elite dangerous>no learning requiredWhat do you consider learning at this point?

Do I put this on my github or is it kind of a newdev fauxpaux to put a little two day 20 hours text based program on your CV?
>>719754407Been playing pic related all month.Literal 10/10 masterpiece. Best vidya value since the Orange Box (even better value actually). Buy this if you guys like NES games. It's on PC and Switch.
>>719761332Always good to hear someone mention UFO50. People were right, Party House is addicting.
>>719761310maybe you should try it and find out what learning something actually feels like. cozmic collection is right there.
>>719761332I just got it. Whats your favorite game
>>719754407>37>NEETRejoining society soon I'm not a burger, moving on from my forever crushPlaning on finishing HL Alyx and that's it
>>719761332This and spelunky are fun but the dev is such a cuck I just don't want to give him any money.
>>719761376Yeah it's great and there are some other really good games on it too.>>719761430I'm loving Grimstone. It's a theme I always wanted to see on a jrpg. Me and my nephew have a lot of fun playing Pingolf multiplayer too.
Been playing Gravity Rush 2, maybe I'll actually finish it this time.I'm excited for a lot of stuff actually:>Pragmata>TiTs in the Sky remake>Digimon>Silent Hill F>Onimusha >Okami
30 y/o but gaming like I'm 65. Historically accurate sorties in IL-2 where I fly for an hour on missions just to shoot down a single plane or maybe drop 2 bombs, and spend 95% of the time trying to navigate or spot things. Absolutely boomermaxxed.
>>719761605>spelunkyI refuse to play games with ugly artstyles. Go figure the dev is cuck when he makes games that look like that.
>>719761323>2025>30+ and going to college for compsci Anon.... I'm so sorry.....
>>719761323I just fed this into chatgpt and made a functioning game
>>719762212>>719762407seriously that dude should just give up and get a trade
I'm really depressed and the imminent release of Silksong is making it worse. I know I would have been so excited to play it three years ago but now I'm just filled with dread, and I wish I didn't feel forced to play it to avoid spoilers.
>>719761332UFO 50 is amazing. I want to go back and play some of the games I didn't beat one of these days.
>>719762212>>719762407>what are ATMs>just made more bank tellersNow that everyone can generate AI sloppa EVERYONE is also going to need someone who actually knows what's going on under the hood to fix it.>people will just fix it with AINuh uh. People will still need to understand the code, it's not going to be that no one will ever need to understand code again and computers will just be able to magically make any programs anyone wants completely flawlessly forever.
Oh shit, I can finally post in these.>>719762212I'm doing it mostly to get a job and a visa in a country that isn't the USA. Wish I did this shit in my twenties instead of working hard at become the world's greatest stoner.
>>719754407Star Sonata mostly
>>719762929Why do you need a visa? So you can be useless somewhere else?
>>719759309You need therapeutic massage. I get worked on at my chiropractor every two weeks and it basically turned off all the aches and pains I associated with getting old.I've been timesinking with Against the Storm and Mahjong Soul, I really need to start playing another bucket list game.
>>71975566738 here, 230k a year salary. Renting has perks. I have apartments in Florida, Wisconsin, and Puerto Vallarta.I'm month to month, no commitments, no repairs or landscaping, and I'm not stuck anywhere.I may buy a house when prices collapse but I don't really care. I pay less in rent than 600k house would cost in payments, taxes, insurance.
>>719754407Went to an arcade. Got a 1CC on the VS Gradius cabinet, which is basically just NES gradius. Played some other games too. Trying to get good at Tapper.Not excited about any new games, I have too many old ones to play still.
I lost my job. So I had to cut back on my normalfag activities. And They dropped me like a hot piece of coal. Its like they can smell it. Whatever though. The flight ticket alone was gonna cost me the price of a brand new GPU. Fuck'em38Brave storyHonestly it hasn't been great. Initially the battle system was fun, but it hasn't changed in the past ten hours or so. The useful skills for each charact is one or two, and the rest are pretty crap. Some skills are clearly an upgrade of the previous one, but they cost the same amount of BP points so why keep the previous one?I dont know. I also dont really care much for the story. And the villain. Sheesh. Listen, I get it, hes supposed to be the bad guy. But hes just treating everyone all the time, and pretty harsh stuff too like saying hes gonna cut the throat of the neroine of the story. Or hes gonna break open her skull. Hes going to set fire to the whole town and watch the villagers roast inside their cabins. Like calm the fuck down. I really doubt the japs put this shit there. Its just another case ofsycho translators doing whatever the fuck they feel like to the game.
>>719754407enjoying poe2 for the first time in 0.3every zone should still be 50% smaller though. almost finished a playthrough on VTMB, since 2 might be my halloween game this year. one more sleep until new Hot Shots golf. my ol reliable game when i had nothing else was always FFXI, but completing Rhapsodies a while ago was good closure. so these days its just a simple casual game like golf, pinball, or even >Fallout76 (they just had the new patch, and changed base building to be all free placement with no restricted horseshit, honestly a great fucking change. you used to have to do glitch wizardry and spent hours to do something like put items on a shelf, or even just pieces together that are supposed to snap together but wouldn't let you half the time. now "all of this, just, works"™)

>>719754407I finished Blue Shift last night and now I'm trying out Black Mesa. Blue Shift was definitely the weakest of HL1/OF/BS and it felt like it ping-ponged between too many story segments and romhack-tier action sections.So far Black Mesa is eh (only up to when the military comes in). There's a lot of changes and additions that I just look at and think 'why on earth would you add that when the original was fine', but otherwise it's the same game again. I'm mostly playing it to close the set of games out
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Finished Alan Wake + 1 DLC earlier this week and a bit of MTG Arena when I want to kill 30 min.Currently going through my first, blind playthrough of Pathologic 2. I've been given some tips from anons from the last time I tried playing it - which has helped but I'm still struggling. Just made it to day 6, and goddamn is this game unforgiving. Really hoping I can make it to the end because I don't feel like restarting again and losing the 16ish hours Ipur put into. At least not right now.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?FF Tactics Remaster and Silent Hill F both have my eye, but I'm trying to not buy anything new for awhile.>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?I still play FFXIV regularly.
>>719754407Ive literally just been grinding Diablo 2 for hours and hours in-between cooking complex meals for myself. There's literally nothing else to do. Im completely bored with other games and the game's industry.
>>719764167>Went straight into Black Mesa instead of way better mods for HL1 that are way better and actually original campaigns within the lore.

1 wheel down and away from the enemy lines. I'll take it.
>>719765375Same here. Oh God made a tree of life that evolves every life form, the 107 figure this out and actually stop 108 from being born and use it as a energy source - and then enslave everyone else. So God's program whatever keeps sending an angel to reincarnate into the world to correct this from the moon as the Black Monster every 108 years. Then there's this war where the humans and dragons team up to break away from their slavery, resulting in civilizational fall. So now its the last few 108s trying to hold onto power and recreate their empire. Also they really called them 'winglies' I can't take that seriously ever lol.

I wanted to get a few more endings but after I beat it once I'm moving on to something else. Not even gonna try Satan.
>>719767421The hack earlier this year cemented that I’ll be here forever. Nothing come close to this shithole.

>>719767954People who rave about chrono trigger have only played, chrono trigger.
>>719754407>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Yeah. Next year I'll finally get my Battlefield Vietnam game i always wanted. Well considering Rising Storm has moved back into the soviet direction with 83'. I will be playing the dream game. But i might be a little inexperienced with this IP so i don't know if it's milsim or the simcade direction of both old BF and Red Orchestra. I prefer simcade direction of where the weapon handling tries to go for realism but is still finely tuned enough that it's not completely handicapped and slow in opposition to high octane close quarters firefights and the battles are happening pretty quick.I'm also a stealth gamer so i will be playing the new Styx game whenever that releases. Operating on a double A budget so that's pretty rare. Hopefully MGS delta will have inspired some devs to give this genre a shot in development eventually. I don't know what it will take reignite the spark for either the tactical stealth action games of Splinter Cell and MGS, or the more looking glass design focused ones like Thief. I think most people avoid stealth because it's a hard genre to attempt and get right. Requires high competency in programming AI for example.
>>719768056i havent played a square enix game since the first octopath traveler, which was so bad i decided to never play a square game again after i saw all the nitwits glazing it

>>719768770
>>719768791>I could get virtual fighter 5 REVO when on sale thoughMmm, no, this is another one of those dead kusoge people try to push onto beginners. Really you should always start with the current generation of Street Fighter. Doesn't matter if it sucks, gotta start there. That's where all the players are, all the beginner tutorials, etc. This is also why fighting games are kind of bad, because the quality of the current street fighter kind of defines the caliber of that generation of fighting games. You're learning absolutely nothing just fighting the CPU btw, want to get into matches pronto.This is fighting games:https://youtu.be/VOAxY3oRXXcYou get this down, then you learn pressure, mix ups, oki and finally setplay and you're good to go.My favorite games were ST, Alpha, jojoban, MvC1, MvC2, and VSP. I even got C rank in kof98 and i dont even like or play that shit. But if you really want to learn fighting games you gotta play SF6 unfortunately.
>>719754407Excited for upcoming games?Dawn of war 4I play StarCraft 1, SC and aoe2 are eternal
>>719768791Ignore that cocksucker, any KoF is fine to begin with, with the exception of XIII.The most recent ones are good to understand modern fighting games, but you can always go to some slower paced ones like '96, '97 or '98.
>>719754407>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Drugs. Only weed nowadays
the mechwarrior 5 dlc came out today so i've been spending time playing thatoutside of that some friends got im into playing the division 2 and i've been playing some other game like fatal fury cotw when im in the mood for a fighting game
>>719769357Nah. I hate SF6 as much as the next guy but it’s a good starting point.
>>719768770Nice try, just because the recruiter said I could sign a waiver and enlist regardless of my age doesn't mean I'm gonna do it. I'm too smart for that... maybe.
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Played Zelda 1 and honestly it's still a great game.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Adventures of Elliot, Octopath 0, Pac-Man World Re-Pac 2, Splatoon Raiders, and Bloodstained: Scarlet Engagement>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Super Mario Bros. 3, and many othersThese past few weeks I've been playing a lot of the top down Zelda games and so far I've played Zelda 1, Link's Awakening, Minish Cap, A Link Between Worlds, Echoes of Wisdom, and Four Swords Adventure. Which top down Zelda game should I play next?
>>719754407I played Rez Infinite for the first time last night. Very cool game, sorry I never got around to it on Dreamcast. Been spending most of my time playing RDR2, my first playthrough.
>>719768791ignore that faggot kof and vf are just fine to play
>>719769357>any KoF is fine to begin withnow this straight up made up, i dont know why retards say this shit. like>'96, '97These games are literally unplayable, this is just a straight up lie. No one should ever tell a beginner to play crap like this.
>hey bro how you doing?>drugs. Only weed nowadays.
>>719769514I'll concede that it's the best one to play if you're looking for online matches without having to resort to looking for them in Discord, but to say SNK doesn't make good games is just insane.
>>719763315Yeah, but you have no equity in a rented apartment (or three, for whatever fucking reason).
>>719769357Post your fightcade rank in kof98

>>719769306Okay. I will get SF6 when on sale which should be by the end of this month. >>719769357Personally it feels great to me. Not too flashy but also not too bland. It has all the characters I need. I think I'm gonna main Mai. Stock game comes with a huge line up as it is. Honestly I'm in it for the mechanics. I'm having fun learning the movements and stuff.
>>719769678Happy birthday!>>719769649>76Never got the appeal of this game. I feel like it's all I see people talk about in the fallout general nowadays.

>>719769189I wasn't apart of your conversation but the fact that you saw me excited for Hell Let Loose Vietnam as some kind of recruitment endorsement is just bizarre and you have some weird agenda/axe to grind because you're some hippy ass liberal/socialist that must ruin all the fun about gaming.

Real talk with my fellow 30s almost 40s and hell 40s too What's the phenomenon that causes people to not even go back to play an old game if they're hyped for a new gameNow this could apply to stuff like silk song but it baffles me even harder when it's also for straight up sequels that the younger generations are apparently super hyped for but then despite all the time they have before release they don't go back and play the old games especially if they're connectedWhat's the deal with that?
>>719769826But why did you say something like pointless war? it's a historical setting. One I'm interested in and that's why it's unique. And then you said fake enemies. It's like you're trying to make a political statement in what you said.
>>719769915Good morning SEA gang.
>>719769731This is just the new Palworld, threads posted left and right with barely any discussion about the actual game.

>>719769805Yeah, it was asking me to chose three characters. Will learn about it through tutorials. thanks senpai.
>>719769932I'm not the same poster.
>>719769731Compared to the shitty rpg threads that get made every single day with OP posting bait to get replies, yeah, id say so
>>719769718Yeah, those games have a shitload of characters, so you're bound to find at least 3 you like a lot in either design or gameplay, and those are gonna be your team for now. You could learn more to cover for your team's weaknesses, but unless you're planning on competing at some tourney I don't think that matters a lot.
>>719757967i like how every shooter became titanfall for some reason

>>719769995Yeah, thanks a lot. At 30+, it feels harder reacting to individual frames and stuff, but I feel I can manage. >>719770030I did find a casual match. I was smashing everything on controller out of panic lol. Going to learn a character in details with all the moves and then will jump in to try. There is lot of depth to it than it seems. It is just not rushing and pushing buttons. Gonna have fun in this genre.
>>719770081You are never going to be ritch with that attitude.
I just want to have one girlfriend before I die
>>719770185>There is lot of depth to it than it seemsNo, you just pick iori and do a taco kick
Finished the first three Final Fantasies, gonna play IV soon after. Funny enough, this will make it the last Final Fantasy of the original 10 I've played, but not the last one that will be finished. I never finished 6 and 7 for different reasons (basically amounts to losing my saves on both right near the end of each game on different consoles), so I figured I'd save those two in the end as a grand finale. Kind of got an appreciation for the series as I've gone through it, especially seeing the start of specific series staples.

Question for anyone gaming on PC. What modern games do you think are good at crashing unstable overclocks on your GPU? Im not even overclocking specifically, just trying to find games in which they stress the GPU enough to find faults in it. The reason I'm doing so is whether to figure out if my card is actually working or broken since i seem to have issues with running Cyberpunk 2077 for unexplainable reasons. The dedicated benchmarking software like 3D mark can't see to find faults. So I'm looking for some heavy games that would guarantee in crashes. Enough so i can determine whether i decide to RMA my card.

>>719770759Not sure if it’d help since we only use non-overclocked GPUs, but my company used the benchmark tool of Dawntrail and latest Monhun to test hardware. That was half a year ago though, so maybe there is something better.

>>719772435I should mentioned all of these have no hard drive because over the years they failed and I would just replace the computer, I was too young back then to try and get them working again
>laptop>accurate
I'm leveling a 39 warlock twink on turtle wow and I played some Legends of Runeterra again around the end of last month.I'm excited for the finale of a mystery visual novel trilogy that should be out any time actually. I expect to get my mind FUCKED.My ol' reliable is my e-reader, my life companion since around 2013
I'm going through severe benzodiazepine withdrawal and there are no doctors who will help me in Canada. I've been looking for months. Videogames are my only respite
>>719772660Damn bro. Thats harsh.
>>719772479Well, back when I was a kid I was playing stuff like quake 3 arena and mechwarrior 3/4 on a XP laptop. later I had a vista gaming laptop which I played starwars battlefront 2 with. it’s accurate for ME.Ideally what would be really cool would be to get some older desktops but I’m moving and don’t have room right now. I considered throwing this old junk out but it’s nostalgic to me.I have an XP install disk for the oldest laptop I used once to put XP on a replacement hard drive but idk if it will work with smother computer yet like the vista era one. Never tried it.
>Did you play any games this week?Finally actually finished Tsukihime Remake. It was awesome. The Extra ending was fucking insane, couldn't put it down for like 5 hours straight.Also playing Resident Evil 8.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?A lot actually. Pokemon, Digimon, Tales of Xillia, Katamari, Yotei, Kirby etc. >What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Craving another 2D Metroid replay so might be going back to Super Metroid>>719765107>>719765067As a working adult, if you're living with family, do you not want to contribute to your household? Unless your parents are super rich and it wouldn't make a difference, I guess.
>>719772981>>719772435I know it's kinda obvious but you don't want virtual machines, right? You want accurate hardware?
>>719773004>want to contributeYes>Pay rentNo, that's a different thing
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Beat echo's of wisdom, now playing Fire emblem warriors three houses or whatever. I bought it as a brain off button mash game but its story heavy as fuck so that sucks>Are you excited for any upcoming games?No. I have a backlog with only bangers, so I dont really look forward to new shit. If something releases and its looking good I'll check it out, but I havent hyped shit in a decade+>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?I always enjoy rhythm games since you can pick em up and start playing without any build up or "that part"
Is it just me or are there no good, easily accessible multiplayer games with big communities now?
>>719773225In that context is rent not just a fixed contribution?
Playing through Fenyx Rising. It's solid and looks good but nothing special. My everyday games are Quake Champions duels when I'm by myself and Finals when the boys are online. I recently checked my total Steam spending. It's a shameful number so I'm not looking for any new games. I still add new games to my backlog excel but I don't purchase until I'm actually ready to play it.
>>719771763>but my company used the benchmark tool of Dawntrail and latest Monhun to test hardwareDawntrail is dated but i could try out monster hunter i suppose. Generally i would say raytracing tests are the way to go now. Maybe some people say furmark is still reliable, but the finer instabilities need to be caught out in those tests is my perspective.
I played Sim City 3000 Unlimited today and got my population to 75k in 1938. I'm excited for Cities Skylines to go on sale for the autumn Steam sale so I can buy the entire collection.
>>719773441Everyone has basically fractured and splintered into their own niches by nowUnless it's shit like league or CS
>>719773441I feel like we've have no shortage of unique multiplayer games coming out, problem is the communities don't get big for the good ones. Everything that is good is niche and dies. Makes me consider moving countries because i live in a low pop region.
>>719773497If you are contributing towards the household bills/food, then sure, but if they are charging you for your room then they are actively working against you moving out.
>>719754407>Hollow KnightFinished my replay of Hollow Knight. Beat the Radiance for the first time. It was great. White Defender was really cool.>Silk SongPlaying Silksong later.>Gotham Knights>Arkham AsylumMy old reliable game is Arkham Asylum. I was gonna replay it and collect the Riddler trophies, but I tried Gotham Knights instead. It's way better than I thought it'd be. Suicide Squad is so bad, that I'm surprised this was so good. It's 7/10 to Arkhams 10/10. What a fantastic opening sequence too. Ra's and Batman fighting for 5 minutes in the cave was great.
>>719757967Some 21 year old that wants to bang me asked if I wanted to play CoD. She raped me like 5 times over (in CoD). The dawn of the fem-gamer...
>>719761332>If you like NES games
>>719773039I don’t really understand what virtual machines are, I’ve never experimented with them. My understanding is they are a sandboxes contained executable of an OS. (Which is pretty insane and cool) but I don’t understand how they could ever be 100 percent contained. (People seem to use these for testing out stuff that might have viruses it seems like) from what I understand I would still need the ISO regardless so if I already have the hardware (my laptops) I don’t see the trouble in trying to get them working. if you want to share your opinion that’s great I’m all ears. Frankly I’d even like to get something older than XP working one day because mechwarrior 3 is an older game. My dad had some big ass powerful dell tower in 2005 we used for DOOM 3 but the bulk of my time on computers has been laptops
Get piss drunk while playing Crash Bandicoot and listening to sick beats
>Did you play any games this week?Expeditions: Rome (still playing)>Are you excited for any upcoming games?the James Bond game and maybe Borderlands 4>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Outside of the months when I'm on an OSRS/classic wow kick, none.
>>719774645Christ, how old is this image? I just got flashbacks.
>>719774902yes
>>719754407I've been playing Deadlock all week, and I'm mostly bad at it. I feel like my chosen hero, Bebop, is not very good, although he's fun.I'm not excited for anything anymore.The ol reliable is Dota, but even that feels like a chore now.Life is pain.
>>719754407Expedition 33, it is great so far
Why do I feel like there are a lot of gods I'm unworthy of even speaking with ITT?
I bought PS+ premium subscription for cheap and decided to farm it the fuck out. Just this week I'm plowing through>F.I.S.Tmuch better metroidvania than HK mainly because you can have very enjoyable combos to pull off. Other than that I'm finishing>A Night in the woodswhich might be a life defining game if I was 15 or was struggling through college, but for me it's just a shitty VN mascarading as a platformer. Guitar Hero sections were cool though.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?not at all, I have constnt stream of games on PS+, when it goes away later this year I'll go and play older titles, some of them downloaded from the archive.org even as I like adventure games from the 90's>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?I wanna say Tekken 7 but I haven't played it for couple of years now, I'd say either Contra Hard Corps, Wild Guns, Street Fighter 2010. Thruth be told I'm just cruisin' from one old game to another.

>>719774596nice
Started playing MGS1 on a playstation emulator. It holds up surprisingly well once used to the controls. I vaguely remember playing and struggling with it as a kid.But I've just found out there's several re-releases/remakes/remasters for all the games in the series and have no idea which versions I should be playing. I never played MGS3 originally, and based on the reverence people have for it, that's the one I want to make sure I play the best version of it (hoping it's not the £70 version). >>719760830
>>719754407Just finished replaying Conker and DK64, playing through Mario Sun shine for the first time
>>719754407StarMaker StoryRock and roadBunch of other demos on Steam, can't remember names.
Been playing Super Robot Wars Y. It's pretty fun so far. Best one since at least pre-VTX I'd say. Better difficulty level. Maybe my opinion will change. Gonna be playing Silksong once that's out too. Family's helping me with childcare for the day so I can marathon it, should be able to make some good money.
>>719754407I just beat Neon White a few days ago. No idea what to play now so I'm just sitting on here for 8 hours a day. The Silksong spam is atrocious though.
>>719769871>fake blonds
>tfw getting a divorce Im not quite 30. Im 28 and a half. I feel like I wasted the entirety of 20s on a girl I now have no feelings for. She was a NEET all 5 years of marriage. Then she came out as trans a year ago, got on testosterone and turned into a completely different person. We were trying to stay friends but I did something a few years ago ill regret for the rest of my life that I didn't think much of at the time I came on her in her sleep the guilt from that drives me crazy. She moved to new york with her trans friends a few months ago and she's cutout all contact with me. Its been rough. Even though im not romanticly into her anymore she was my best friend. Id always tell her what vidya i was playing and she'd pretend to care. Thinking about trying online dating but im kind of enjoying the single life. I live with my parents and don't have to pay a dime to live here. Most of my money goes towards saving or upgrading my PC. Work is pretty tedious and im usually too tired to play much. Have tomorrow off though. Been playing hollow knight on my steam deck in anticipation for silksong tomorrow. Not sure if I should drop it or not and jump right into silksong when I wake up. I have some 7oh I plan on taking to get nice and comfy. Don't have anything going on tomorrow. My therapist is taking the week off so I don't have any appointments. Minus the guilt eating away at me ive been doing ok.
I have tinnitus now and it's hard to game or do anything.
>30+ year old grown ass man>still playing dolls with shartjaksAbsolutely fucking embarrassing, grow the fuck up already OP.
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Full metal daemon muramasaAge of mythology retoldRepoLeague of legendsHeroes of the storm>Are you excited for any upcoming games?No, everything feels bleak>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Heroes of the storm, with rum and cokeI'm tired of being a loser bros
>>719777072Sucks how tinnitus literally has no cure. If you have it permanently it’s just gg
>>719777072You get used to it. I've had it since I was like 13. It's really only a problem if I'm in complete silence.
For me I turn on a bathroom fan or a free standing fan or something so I don’t hear the WEEEEEEEEEEEEEE when I try to sleep
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Been playing STALKER Anomaly, Starsector, and Kenshi.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Just Beta Decay hoping the indie can deliver.>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?I replay Metroid Prime ever few years.>>719754435You might need to extend your commute and live outside of city limits, if not get a roommate.>>719755667Fucking houses around me are running up near one million USD, most people I know have to rent down payment required is very hefty.
35I just beat Abiotic FactorI am about to clear Nioh 2 on Dream of the Wise. Plan to be done before 3 gets out with Dream of the Nioh. Waiting on like a dozen eternal EA indie games to hit 1.0. Getting Cronos this Friday for the weekend, and Dying Light later this month (better not be fucking butt shit like that poopy 2)Also reading Grave Empire, just finished The Devils
>>71975566731 here, im buying my first house then I'll have to pay 500 mortgage every monththat gives me anxiety but its still better than renting, renting here has reached 900€ per month
Almost everyone I know is renting one of the only dudes I knew who “owned” a house (only half paid off) had to sell it and move back to his hometown because of the job market changing in his field in his state he had been living in. There’s a lot of luck to life. Dude has a good resume and a master of mechanical engineering.
>>719776074 Based demo grinding. StarMaker Story is that idol management one, right? I played a bit and it felt like a weird cross between Princess Maker and Yakuza side content. Rock and Road sounds familiar-was that the rhythm roguelike with the CRT filter or am I mixing it up with something else? Honestly Steam demos are becoming more fun than full releases lately, feel like I’m back in my 2006 flash game era.
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Helldivers 2 with friendsI'm still milking Wuchang - Fallen Feathers to get the last 2 achievements>Are you excited for any upcoming games?He-Man and the Masters of the Universe™: Dragon Pearl of Destruction>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Beat em ups in coop

>>719776839>Im 28stopped reading there
>>719777976The job market changing on you is why no one buys. There is no such thing as permanent stable assured employment. Buying a house almost anywhere is an enormous risk. Almost impossible.
>>719754407Playing Dark Souls again
>>719754407Did you play any games this week?slowly playing through LGPE for the first time (it's fucking childishly easy but I expected no less) and POE2, waiting for some new games in the post. Are you excited for any upcoming games?Pokemon Z-A and BL4... i'm a millenial alrightWhat is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?FFXIV, the new relic weapon step involving an insane amount of grinding just dropped so that's what my next 2 weeks are dedicated to
Just got San Andreas on Android. Gonna connect my phone to my USB C controller and play that this week.
played metal gear solid 3 delta and just got plat a few hours ago
>Did you play any games this week?I've been playing lol and overwatch 2>Are you excited for any upcoming games?I already got silent hill F and FF tactics pre-purchased
>>719778907You look like that IRL.
40yo wizard here. I'm playing atm the new perfect dark pc compilation. This afternoon i will start silksong.
Been playing FF12 for the leadup to Final Fantasy Tactics: IC.I know that story-wise they're not connected since the huge gap of time/calamity, but just want to play some comfy Ivalice stuff until FFT comes out.
>>719778765Holy shit that was not your first rodeo.
>>719778765Nice run George.
>>719778765>15 meals in 3 hoursFat Snake
>>719777890retard-kun here, whats the difference between paying rent monthly and paying mortgage monthly
>>719779169AT-camo turns the game into a walk in the park but delta still doesnt hold a candle to the original
>>719776839>I came on her in her sleepKek, so what? That's just funny.
Im almost there bros. I finally have enough money in savings and investments. Im 42, took longer than expected but I finally have everything set up that I can neet the rest of my life. If I play my cards right, I'm looking at 30 to 40 years of pure gaming and visual novels bliss.
>>719779265the difference is that after X amount of years of paying mortgage you OWN the place you live inrent doesn't stop, ever, you'll pay it until you leave or die
>>719754407>Did you play any games this week?Been playing FF7 Rebirth but im kinda burned out and almost dropping it.>Are you excited for any upcoming games?Yeah, im almost buying Hell is Us. Everything ive seen so far looks pretty good.>What is you ol' reliable game that you always come back to?Rimworld, Dead Space 1+2, RE4.
>>719779363What does ownership get meI stop paying mortgage?
>>719779258Fairly small amount for an average-sized person, I'd say?
>>719779395yeah.you don't have to pay it ever again when you own it, usually between 10 to 30 years depending on the deal you make with the bankthe bonus of setting a mortgage is that the payment can be fixed and is not subjected to inflation, so lets say you decided to buy a 115.000$ house in 1995, you start paying 500$ every single monthnow lets say you finish your payment in 2025, your last rate would still be 500$ even though back in 1995, 500$ would be worth 1,059$ today due to inflation, so it would be like your mortgage rate would be 250$ in today's money instead of 500$ which is half of what you used to pay in 1995
