Young Masters, let's talk about martial arts/wuxia/xianxia video games.

>Wandering sword is done>New hero update game in 2026>Aura clash ch 9 delay due to porting>No new fan translations that are not MTL garbageIt's rough
thank you Mr Chinaman for introducing me to egg foo young
>average western story>Protagonist uses his powers to protect the innocent and make the world a better place>Average Chinese story>Protagonist wants to take all power for himself and murders whoever inconveniences him
>>724624107damn they are just like me fr fr
Where winds meet bros? Is it good?
>>724624107>muh black and white morality>I NEED IT IN EVERY MEDIA I CONSOOOM>10 tickets to the new superman remake pls
Where should I start reading xianxia?
>>724624269Seeing people be good is very nice to the soul. Unfortunately, most chinks lack it.
>>724623185Will there ever be a good xianxia game? Quite a few good wuxia games but nothing with xianxia powerlevels.
>>724624269>b-b-but Americans!
>>724624272Martial World>has all the tropes>easy to read and understand>not a bad read>the MC is not a cuck
>>724624310Amazing Cultivation Simulator>take a pill to make my penis fall off>forge it into a spiritual superweapon that boomerangs your head off>regrow my penis and steal your jade beauty>ransack your sect and feed your disciples to my very cute flying dog
>>724623761Anon recommended Ascend from Nine Mountains some days ago. I tried, it's pretty hard but addictive in a way. Just get to sublime crafting and realize that it's like Atelier, in a way..
>>724624312henry cavill is not american and it makes you fatties seethe KEK
>>724624269All I'm saying is that stories tend to reflect the values of the people they've made from and for.The fact that many Chinese ones feature characters who not only act and think like phychopaths but also get rewarded for it says a lot about them as a people.
For me? It's Thunderbolt Fantasy.
>>724623661>sexthat's dual cultivation you frog in the well
>>724623185pc release when?
>>724624810>cant upload imagesphantom blade zero.jpg
>>724624310Bwo your Asura's Wrath?
>>724624612I still need to watch the final movie, sad it ended apparently rushed but I'm glad I got to experience it at all I guess
>>724624810>>724624857A year after the ps5 release which we're supposed to get a date for before next year. Until then we have where winds meet in 2 weeks (people sat its good despite being f2p, I hope they're right)
>re-reading Reverend Insanity>get to the theological chapter>"once you reach enlightenment you treat all things as equal, if you turn toward the light you become a Buddha, if you turn toward the darkness you become a Demon"as a side note, there is a lot of time-skipping and power leveling in the first arc, more than I remembered
Choose, cultivator man.
>>724624347Isn't that the one where the MC's wife turns out to have been manipulated at which point she is forced to betray him and his faction? Also she dies and all he can do iss scream about it.
>>724625686No, his third wife fucked the MC to death until he reincarnated.

>>724625473tit goddess on the far right
>>724625686...Thanks, faggot. I had just started reading it. Consider an hero.
>>724624545Cutthroat mentality in a society where literally everyone can be replaced by a guy or gal that looks like them. You either grind your way to the top or are grinded into paste when the next inevitable famine rolls around.>>724625456Makes sense, he literally starts his reincarnation into a child. It would drag on for ages without timeskipping.
Recommend me the best novel you have read, honorable masters.I need for my breakthrough!
>>724625958good choice anon, she's also best girl
>>724626126Calm your titties, I mistook it for a different novel.
>>724626258Reverend Insanity is the best but I also enjoyed Necropolis Immortal for its autism upon autism.
>>724625473Fuck, I need a game like Tale of Immortal but with actual sex. Is there even an eroge with wuxia/xianxia aesthetics out there, seniors?
I'm really hyped for Where Winds Meet.
>>724626396You can mod it to be a porn game desu.>>724626258A Regressor's Tale of Cultivation
>>724626558And where can I find such treasure, venerable senior? For this lowly junior can't read runes, thus incapable of visiting the bug country's profound sects.
>>724626396I saw a xianxia mod for CoC, might be up your valley
>>724626784steam workshop, but you need to translate them
>>724626365>>724626558novel recommends>Does a thousand dogesas in a row blood exploding form every orifice.
>xianxia thread
>>724626812I will look into it, thank you senior. Your help is very appreciated.>>724626843Ahh, translating such scripture is probably beyond this lowly junior's capabilities. Nevertheless, I give many thanks to senior for his knowledge.
>>724625473I choose to have a harem. With mods.
>>724624439looks cool but>early accesswill add it to wishlist
>>724627049Good pasta
>>724627049This Meng Hao fellow must be a powerful cultivator from the Eagle Sect.
>>724624272I like A Record of a Mortal's Journey to Immortality and I Shall Seal the Heavens as introductions.There's plenty of other options though. I think I started with Coiling Dragon which is like Xianxia mixed with Xuanhuan.
>>724626258As Heavens Divide.Niche Xianxia written by a crazy slav
>>724625686No that's Desolate Era-----Still probably my favourite xianxia of all time.
Wuchang is a shit game desu.
what wuxia/xianxia core phrases should i know and have ready to deploy when Where winds meet comes out. I'm quite inexperienced so i only know of>frog in a well>courting death>you have eyes but cannot see mt tai>referring to people as junior/senior/young master
>>724627934Oh right, I did like a good chunk of it, especially the start but I got more annoyed as time went on. MC turned into a complete turbo cultivation autist that was just boring. Muh wife barely had any chapters or personality and ends up missing for most the novel, yet she is somehow the main motivator. Muh sentient sword spirit things are in it longer than her.Also found it hilarious that the realm shattering conflict of his home place was all started by some mook of an old dude. Made the whole thing feel like a joke.
>>724628681Have some>you dare?!>cripple yourself>*coughs up blood*
His game when?
>>724629017stop pushing this gook trash
>>724628681people tend to spit blood a lot, especially when injured by something or if the MC insults them so hard they literally buckle under the shame

Fellow daoists, which path will you be embarking on once you've refined your nascent soul and stepped into the dao foundation realm?
>>724629796The guy would kill you for even pointing out he has a woman's body and because you are turbogay.
>>724630151Gravity is the strongest followed by Time.
>>724630151Sound but only if I can make similar to what Feng Jiu Ge does, beyond that my choice would be gravity so I can do the Reiatsu pressure thing from Bleach
>>724628681>honorless dog
>>724630151I'll follow in Meng Hao's footsteps and specialize in the supreme power of IOU's
>>724630302Actually space is king, but time is venerated.

>>724630553add in>like comparing a firefly/ant to the moon!>>724630182It is heaven's will
I dream of a day when Amazing Cultivation Simulator 2 comes out and it's basically ACS1 but with 10x more content and better in every way. Shit's in dev hell.
>>724630908Heaven's Will has a prolapsed ass after Fang Yuan was finished with it.
>>724630908i also remember a variation of this>lotus on a pile of shit
>>724625473foolish junior, a flower without all its petals is only half as sweet. You do not choose, you enjoy all five petals of the lotus
>>724623185What website anons use to read webnovel ?
>>724629017Is he alright?
>>724631698there's multiple aggregates, search the name of whatever schlock you're reading and see if there's an official page for it. After that scroll until you find a ripoff website that has any variation of novel in its name. It works 90% of the time. Now off you go third worlder.
>>724628681>Junior dares!>strongest under heaven>killing intent
>>724623185Which games are wuxia? There really arent that many, most of them are free to play stuff, aka not an actual campaign.
>>724629181Gooks make better cultivation stories than chinks.
>>724629203Or if someone stronger just looks at them funny.
>>724629017Literally who?
>>724629017>Got shilled this novel months ago>Look inside >Author self insert moralfag mc whose story bend over backwards to accommodate him to keep him perpetually morally righteous (by chink standards, so it's totally okay when he kills the shit out of people because they stole once or something) while everyone else does everything to survive and thrive (and he can afford to do so because he has second tries. The novel never explore this blindspot in MC's psyche)>World building is barely there, reminisce of those open world sloppa games that only load assets in when you're looking at it>Power system exist more as an obstacle that mc must angst over for a cycle or two, overcome, then repeat for the next powerlevel than an actual substantial system>Character interaction only happens on screen, or only when it's related to the MC. This contributes to the world building problem because everything is confined to what the mc and what he's currently concerned about; rarely does the author world build beyond the MC's perspective and the setting suffers for it.3/5 has nothing going for it aside from baby's first morality conundrum and 'hard working' wankery. Read if you want someone to pat you in the back and say you're a good boy and you busting your wagie ass for minimum wage will eventually payoff
>>724631079At least the studio still exists and hasn't stopped working.
>>724632067they barely do cultivation, most of it is literally video games but real in one form or another
>>724632318>Character interaction only happens on screen, or only when it's related to the MC. This contributes to the world building problem because everything is confined to what the mc and what he's currently concerned about; rarely does the author world build beyond the MC's perspective and the setting suffers for it.I disagree with this point but you've hit the nail on the head with the morality. All his preaching about moral good and it's undermined by the rules not applying to him. Of course he can make the choice to not use the pills if he can keep grinding forever.
Do you guys know any novels with good-natured MCs that do things because they want to, not because the author forces it?
>>724623185Hah! This foolish elder forgot to state he will cripple my cultivation should I not stick to xianxia or wuxia games! This one shall instead post qi constructs of irrelevant bird sounds intended to rile the spirit!
>>724633125A good dicking down?
>>724623761>Aura clash ch 9 delay due to portingSupposedly it finished last week and he's back to writing.
god please let where winds meet be fun
what kind of draconian anticheat is the game gonna have thoprobably gonna be a bitch to uninstall after as well..
>>724630151It is already too late, your pleb soul is already settled

>>724630541Isn't space just funny shaped gravity?
>>724624612have yet to find a character as compelling as duck.
>>724634820More like a bunch of nothing
>>724623761>>Aura clashI feel like playing through this again with a new setup. Any suggestions for kino? Already done bladed chi twice.
>>724630151Illusion is technically or potentially the "strongest" as reality itself an illusion, but arcane is the conventionally strongest option as arcane/magic is the ability to change the quintessence of existence into whatever you want. These two are the most "meta" abilities. Space/time are mundane and worldly by comparison.
seniors, I am working on my golden core in Tale of Immortal but I regret decisions I made during my last breakthrough and am contemplating a restart.. I took the destiny that gives you a chance of getting stat manuals every time you cultivate but stupidly I forgot I am in the dragon sect so I don't even benefit from it and I could have upgraded my flying sword thing instead. now, I feel like I'm barely strong enough to farm all this gay shit I need for the highest golden core and it feels like I'm right back to game start farming for foundationdoes it get better, seniors?
>>724635165Illusion is the strongest if you can pull it off and if nobody sees through it. Also illusions matter fuck all against anything that isn't actually conscious or alive.
>>724633404I remember Ave Xia Rem having that kind of MC. Haven't read that one in years.
dont play chinkslop typically but hope where winds meet is good as well >>724634441
>>724635392https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maya_(religion)https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mara_(demon)>Illusion is the strongest if you can pull it off and if nobody sees through it. Yes, that's the case.
Please tell me Where winds meet uses cultivation levels and not the traditional RPG 1-100
>>724623896I love chickens but I don't like Beware of Chickens.
>>724635131Monkey yokai, midoritakai, visit the hyperbolic time chamber and use the colossal transformation in the jack fight.
>>724636060it fucking better. not only is it more thematic but it also helps trick you into thinking the grind's not as huge. Really liked the level brackets in 9Dragons being broken up into groups of 12 in that way.
>>724636146and call yourself Sun Wukong or Son Goku or something like that
>>724624107This is untrue for all Chinese film and television I have seen. Where does this meme come from? Just edgy online novels?Note that the only xianxia I've seen is implicitly gay The Untamed based on explicitly gay Mo Dao Zu
>>724623896Isn't that written by a gweilo westerner?Hardly the original xianxia experience.
>>724635984You can't illusion yourself out of heavenly tribulation lighting or any other environmental hazards
>>724636757xianxia itself comes from india
Forgive me seniors, this thread requires the most potent of demonic bump techniques. cradle. Beware of chicken.
>>724623185I really really liked this video game.
>>724638373>cradleit's a fun read desu
>>724624107That's an issue with cultivation novels, sure. 90% of all of them have a sociopath MC only there for revenge against the kids that laughed at him once in the playgrounds, and after he kills the kids he kills the parents too, and after he kills the parents the grandparents are angy so he kills them too.It's rather fascinating in that it seems Cultivation novels unearthed a huge market of subhumans who just want to read stories about killing all the people who laughed at you in kindergarten and then raping two or three women, for their own good.Not sure what that tells us about China given there is a huge western subhumans audience.
>>724638373BoC is fucking dogshit I hate gwelios so much
>>724625473her...
>>724638760>Not sure what that tells us about China given there is a huge western subhumans audience.Sure, but just like japanese fiction it isn't really written with westeners in mind, so I'd say it gives a glimpse into their psyche first and foremost.
>>724638760>figure chinese fans would be very well aware of this aspect of xianxia>read some chinese xianxia fan fiction>fanfic mc starts talking about how the mc of the original work is a hypocrite and a scumbag, killing or controlling people for the pettiest of reasons>later on fanfic mc unleashes a near catastrophic event that kills over ten thousand people just on the off chance that he might receive slight benefits from it, there wasn't even a guarantee>after this the fanfic mc, when talking to his harem, reflects upon the fact that he's grateful that he has his women, since they make sure he doesn't cross his bottom lineI don't even know how to describe the sheer hypocrisy and lack of self-awareness. It's fucking insane
>>724636324Edgy cultivation novels were what was exported on the west massively (because it was popular) post 2016, and most of them have the same kind of MC that is just short of an absolute monster. In fact there was a time in 2018 when authors tried to out-monster each others, which lead to the MC killing 300,000 people because a young master looked at him wrong, once.It's somewhat of an absolute recuring meme in the entire genre.Issue is that this kind of MCs are popular, given the enduring popularity of (gag) Emperor's Domination and shit like that.
>>724636324Are cultivation novels even that popular in China?
>>724639175This is why "pure" MCs are the best, like Fang Yuan for example.
>>724638760wang lin only holocausted a family because they holocausted his first, first and foremost wang does everything out of love for his waifufang yuan multiholocausts but only out of necessity, RI mentions cooperation being common amongst gu immortals because fighting all the time at such a hard to attain yet precarious level benefits no one, the dude isn't even particularly evil, he just doesn't want to die
>>724624107>white cuck DNA can't even spread his seed even if given limitless power to conquer and gets cucked into extinction >genghis descendant will rape blood lines into his own and remake the world in his image
>>724634820Let me break it down for you. When Pangu emerged from his egg and lifted his connate heaven splitting axe he immediately started creating the world. The 3000 chaos demon gods who lived in the primordial chaos saw this and rushed to stop him. They couldn't prevent Pangu from completing his work, and as they died their laws were absorbed into Pangu's creation. The strongest of these chaos demon gods were the gods of Space and Time, therefore they are the strongest laws. Although they failed to stop Pangu the injuries they inflicted forced him to sacrifice himself to see his world completed.
>>724639578>he says while writing in english, on a computer created by europeans, on a board created by an american, wearing european clothes, living in a house made by european architecture
>>724624107and the japanese stories>mc is a pathetic doormat>helps the villains who rape and kill everyone>the villains get defeated by chance because of their own foolishness with no input from the mc, so mc gets to keep his hands clean of killing anyone and keeps his le innocent nice guy image
>>724639175Even a casual glance at chink history reveals it to be full of wars which were followed by massive famines in which twice the historical population of Europe died. This means, that over thousands of years and hundreds of famines, the people that tended to survive did so because they were absolute autistic cutthroats that would boil their own parents into soup.This is only one part of modern china's glorious cultural and genetic foundation.
>>724639596>in spite of this legend 90% of xianxia mcs wank over swords or spears, and 0% of xianxia mcs use axes
>>724639703>he says his race dwindling each year, the lowest population of their kind in the world, niggers and sand niggers use their inventions to breed rapidly and rape their women
>>724639596Noot noot motherfucker
v哥们,你们都联系中文对不对啊。我要用汉语玩悟空,所以我每天了学了!
>>724639795They have eyes but they can't see mount Tai. Honorable mention goes out to Reckless Savage. He might not have used an axe but I think he still got the essence of Pangu down. Besides, some of the chaos gods were definitely swatted away by Pangu's fists.>>724639596To answer that question seriously it's more that gravity is funny shaped space.
>>724639840Keep pushing them bro, nothing bad can happen.
>>724639578>modern chinks are so cucked they worship the mongols that raped their way into chinese emperorshipgrim
>>724639795Because axes suck>swordscan slash, thrust, be used as a mount>spearscan thrust, whack, be used as a vaulting pole>axescan hack and uhhhhhhh

>>724635391HONOURED ELDERS, PLEASE PROVIDE INSIGHTshould I restart to have the upgraded flying sword jutsu rather than the free manuals from cultivating? am I just a shitter and golden core 5 is a hard one to achieve?
>>724641056Normal mode is easy.
Tale of Immortal was cool but the evil mode with the sword felt half-assed. Hard to properly commit to it when everyone and their mother knows you killed random cunt x even if no one was actually nearby to witness it.
>>724641146okay, but that isn't helpful
>4 years after release>no other true 3d melee pvp combat game like naraka>forever stuck with garbage br and now extraction game modes because the devs can't design good modes for shit>everything else pvp is the same soulless aim assist shooters or meme fotm games>https://youtu.be/43pZRm6cUTo?t=45>new hero looks cool tooi fucking hate it.
>>724640882Then just use some random trash sword as your fantasy bike and use a proper weapon for fighting.
>>724641361>cheating on your weaponfu like thatYou will never achieve your Axe Heart.
>>724640674Damn I was very unaware. 7 days though I can make due with that. I've played all the games from that studio. Or most of them at least. Not a single bad game.
>>724640934>actually being a rapebaby mutt makes me stronglol
>>724641056If you feel weak, debate with cultivators stronger than you and learn better quality or more skills. You also want to focus on manuals with attack bonuses, since the damage formula is something very simple close to damage = attack - defense.I've never tried the dragon sect, so I don't know how the gameplay differs though
>>724641332I transitioned from Naraka to Deadlock.It's not melee focused but has good movement and you can build for melee and multiple characters.MOBA is kind of ass but I ignore most of those mechanics and just fight.
>>724641863dragon cult is shit and built in a way that expects you to be the leader of it and I think that was a stupid thing to get into for my first run, but here I am.I actually had no idea debate can be used to learn skills.. ever time I debate it seems to only boost or damage relationship
Is there any actual golden standard wuxia "JRPG" games? I guess people meme suikoden but that definitely doesn't count. it's not even wuxia...
>>724642258Yeah, you get knowledge which can be turned into skill points
>>724642330Jade Empire maybe.
>>724642019I wanted to play Naraka but it feels like only sweaty tryhards do. I got pwned instantly rofl,
>>724629796BASED
>>724623185Wuxia/xianxia games seem interesting where should I start
What's a good wuxia game if I've never played one? Wandering Sword might be cool but looks a bit generic. Should I give it a shot? Amazing Cultivation Simulator seems like the kind of game I like the idea of but couldn't get into. I tend to get bored fast with sandboxes.
>>724643932Wandering Sword is your best bet.
>>724643378Damn I'm pretty sure they start everyone in bot matches.
Any wuxia games where you have a harem of jade beauties?
>>724642330this is probably the grandfather of all chink wuxia games, you can see it's influence all the way to Wandering Sword and Hero's Adventure and the original developers are pretty much staying in their niche of making wuxia gameshttps://heta.link/2021/08/22/%E9%87%91%E5%BA%B8%E7%BE%A4%E4%BF%A0%E5%82%B3-heroes-of-jin-yong/https://store.steampowered.com/curator/44172756-Chinese-fantasy-Wuxia-Xianxia-games/list/108022/
>>724644041Wandering Sword is good if you want a JRPG, Hero's Adventure is fun if you want what is basically a fallout game system in a wuxia world.
>>724643932I'd suggest Wandering Sword. It's got a fairly decent translation, gameplay isn't too hard to get into and it's got a lot of bullshit that'll probably either make you throw your hands up if you're a completionist or replay it for dozens of hours.
>>724644591What's up with the dual combat system? Like do you use turn based and real time together somehow, or you choose which mode you prefer? In the latter case, which is better?
>>724628681>He's a dragon among men!>a slap heard around the world.
>>724645319Functionally speaking, the real time mode basically only exists when you're way stronger than your opponent and/or roided out of your fucking mind and want to speed up combat by turning it on and slapping auto. Most of your actual combat time is going to be in the turn-based mode.
>>724639468>wang lin only holocausted a family because they holocausted his first, firstUnderstatement of the year. Wang Ling is one of the most evil fucking people in fiction. His wanton murder of the Teng family was completely uncalled for and utterly psychotic in nature.His feud with them started because he performed a demonic vivisection on one of the Teng Family members, which was so wicked and traumatic that it literally destroyed the victim's soul, denying them an afterlife. And Wang Lin did this so he could steal the guy's power.When the victim's grandfather found out, he wanted revenge and he demanded that Wang Lin face him. But Wang Lin ran away. So the victim's grandfather murdered Wang Lin's family and then took their souls hostage to force him out of hiding.Wang Lin appeared. They fought. Wang Lin lost and was believed to be killed.Centuries later, Wang Lin returned for revenge. Which he achieved by systematically hunting down and murdering literally everyone in the world with the Teng family name. It's important to note that a lot of these Teng people weren't even alive when Wang Lin's feud with their ancestor happened. Wang Lin didn't care though. Dude was literally saying shit like "It's your fault for being born a Teng" before he killed them...He deliberately let some Teng members escape so that they could all gather up and convene in a city under the protection of their ancestor.Wang Lin arrived in the city and revealed that he'd only let them live so that he could kill every single one of them in front of their Ancestor, who he'd brutalized and left in a state where he couldn't save his family. After he'd killed literally every Teng, he finally slew the Teng Ancestor who had originally killed his family.ALSO, Wang Lin had a cousin who married into the Teng family. Wang Lin shamed his cousin for his "betrayal", which led to his cousin killing himself out of shame.And this isn't even the most even thing Wang Lin did in the series...
>>724645478Actually, Real Time allows you to get out of dodge of many attacks and effs you cannot in Turn based but you have to constantly move around like a spaz
>>724645478Gotcha thanks. What's up with "partial controller support"?
LOTM is getting a single player game where you play as Klein and a MMORPG at the same time.

>>724645651Yeah, I admit I felt for him when his own folks were murdered and he was chased by that Teng dude into a swamp. But when his revenge came it was completely over the top and the guy just turned into a standard edge autist. The woman he picked up and fell for was also boring as shit.
>>724646174Only when you need to breakthrough a bottleneck.

>>724646571>>724646689Nevermind then, I'm rethinking my choice of Dao. Maybe a Dao of gardening or something like that would be nicer.
>>724645651Bruh, you are replying to a dude who thinks fang youan isn't evil, though to be fair, even the most righteous cultivators in RI are profit seeking megalomaniacs.
>>724630151Whatever is viewed as the weakest and least useful.
>>724647176He isn't evil in sense that he won't do anything destructive or amoral for the sake of destruction, he will simply do what is necessary for survival and advancement.Soul Spectre on the other hand...
>Hey, at least he's not Spectral Soul!
>>724647559I'd vote for him
>>724647559The Gu world is filled with psychos, at least he's not a hypocrite.
>>724647625Some of the best moments of the novel are the flashbacks that show a time where Fang Yuan still had actual morals.Real kneeslappers those are.
>>724647625If you have to compare your guy to Spectral Soul to excuse his actions then your character is utterly evil.
>>724647559>>724647625>>724647406QRD on Soul Spectre? I dropped Reverend Insanity before he showed up because Fang Yuan was too edgy for me
>>724647894A guy so obsessed with killing he makes Fang Yuan look like a merciful Buddha
>>724647894Heaven brings forth innumerable things to nurture man.Man has nothing good with which to recompense Heaven.Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill. Kill.
I hope WHere Winds Meet isn't shit. I want more action oriented wuxia games. Fuck turn based.
>>724646178I'd suggest you don't bother with crafting. It's very tedious for little profit.
>>724646174You live by the rape, you die by the rape.
>>724642019i'll give deadlock props for not putting in aim assist. but i can't stand mobas either, played dota 2 ages ago and getting stuck in 40+ minute games with shitters had to be one of the worst experiences possible. 15-20 minutes has to be the max match limit, no more. playing poe 2 until something better comes along. monk is pretty fun ngl.
>>724647559Fang Yuan has done substantially less harm to people and the world in general despite being a self-admitted evil and selfish motherfucker when you compare him to a large percentage of "repay kindness and gratitude a thousandfold" standard xianxia """righteous""" mc. Which is really kinda sad if you think about it, the story where you have a villain as the mc is way more peaceful than the story where you have a standard heaven's chosen hero mc and this is even factoring in the fact that Fang Yuan's first act is to murder his clan in order to increase his talent
>>724649051His clan was doomed either way, Bai Ning Bing explodes and they're all gone, at least this way they were of some use.
are there any good wuxia action games? many of them seem to be UE4/5 tech demos, or unity messes.
>>724649051I don't blame him since his clan was retarded anyway.
>>724625473The romances in this disappointed me. I completed the entire one for the left, and the entire story was just wandering around trying to solve her ice issue. Then at the end they're just like "well maybe it can't be solved" and it ends. Then she turns into a generic NPC with a unique background and dual cultivation fodder I guess.
>>724649051Our Great Love Immortal Venerable is truly the most virtuous man around.Him abusing cheap resurrection to give the clan-sacrifice bonuses to everyone was really funny. Damn shame the story cut off before we could get more of that.

>>724649360phantom blade zero looks kewl but that's next year
>>724651030Yeah, forget Star Constellation Immortal Venerable and Spectral Soul Demon Venerable. Dead Wife Demon Venerable was easily Fang Yuan's toughest enemy.
>>724653761Voluntary (instantaneous) organ donation tribulation is very hard to survive.
You know what hanging out in these threads has made me realize that I to would be easy to convert into a sociopath uncaring of who i step on to ascend if someone repackaged that insanity into wise-sounding words
>>724654669this is why pol pot was right about intellectuals
>>724654669most people are that way. The state of the world is at the whims of the charismatic. This is how cults start, this is how politics work, this is how everything works. Now that you see and recognize, anon, you can take advantage too. Or, be wary of what you become, up to you.I like to follow the ideology of "good or bad, follow what you believe, what your heart and mind say are right, regardless of morality."If you lie to yourself and act as someone you aren't, truly, the world will push back.That's how "bad" people get ahead. They're just doing what they know they want to and feel as though they can and/or should.

>>724639175>>fanfic mc starts talking about how the mc of the original work is a hypocrite and a scumbag, killing or controlling people for the pettiest of reasonsAlmost certainly was Duolou Daily; the MC Tang San is a genuine hypocrite and self insert for the author but the reason he got so infamous is because in addition to being a published author, he's also part of the CCPs censorship board and he used his position to promote his own books (which are quite raunchy compared to other popular ones but escape censorship) while suppressing the competition. Most famously he's responsible for Reverend Insanity being banned which is why so many people hate him, especially since the motivation was clearly that it was too popular compared to his own works rather than any genuine concern for its anti authoritarian message, when plenty of his own characters behave similarly. He got the nickname "dead wife demon venerable" as a way to refer to him indirectly, because he made a huge public appeal and begged for sympathy after his wife died only to immediately get with a younger woman who was his side piece while he was married which again further encourages scorn. The quality of his writing and especially the female characters being funny/interesting also significantly declined once his wife died so there's common speculation she helped ghostwrite stuff for him before dying as well

>>724660029romance of the three kingdoms (2010)
>>724626258Best novel I have read is not xianxia thoughIt started as horror and became wuxia in later chapters, and it has modern world settingIf you dont mind it, look for Corpse Retriever (捞尸人)
>>724658317Why is he venerable though?
>>724660029you will need to read the four volume english translation of luo guanzhong's "three kingdoms"i recommend the moss roberts translation
>>724660631Cause he had enough power to shut it down. It's a title of strength, not actual respect.
>>724660631he was named like an old monster xianxia character, you could also translate it as "dead wife demon ancestor", they're not praising him
>>724660029All you need is that one "cao cao has a certain fetish" webm, that's all. Someone will post it eventually
>>724662080W-what's his fetish?
BUMP
Junior! Cease your cultivation, go to the bathroom, and take a shit. Now.

>>724665663Water + sword.Fire + fist.
>>724665396You have an asshole yet cannot shit?!
>>724665663Sword movement+ultimate pairs well with most other styles.
>>724624107Not all wuxia novels. Something like Coiling Dragon has a murderhobo main character. But something like Wu Dong Qian Kun doesn't. World of Cultivation and Ze Tian Ji are the best wuxia novels, IMO and their main characters are decent.A Will Eternal too. A Will Eternal is actually hilarious at some points.
>watching random gacha nigga stream>see thiswtf my goat is washed?
>>724665663water movement with sword skillslater on your water clone turns into a minigun turret
>>724666642I was reading Immortality Starts With Investment and a random side ho skilled in Gu arts called Fang Yuan showed up.I swear that book's written by a genuine chinaman. It's the only English-original xianxia I've ever read that felt authentic. Slop, but authentic chinkslop.I'd actually recommend it.
>>724632318>>Author self insert moralfag mc whose story bend over backwards to accommodate him to keep him perpetually morally righteous (by chink standards, so it's totally okay when he kills the shit out of people because they stole once or something) while everyone else does everything to survive and thrive (and he can afford to do so because he has second tries. The novel never explore this blindspot in MC's psyche)Anon, he fucking teams up with a rapist so rapist he gets powers from rape, and has orgies with corpses, you fucking secondary.
>>724666558>Something like Coiling Dragon has a murderhobo main characterLinely was actually pretty normal. I don't think he ever committed a genocide. He did wipe out the Church, but they were basically cultists who would kidnap and sacrifice innocent people to high level cultivators who they called "gods". The only really evil thing Linely did that I can think of is when he killed one of his servants (so he could keep his secrets covered up), which is fucked up, yeah. But for Xianxia protagonists, that's pretty tame.
>>724664348
>>724645884You can, but it's typically not worth it.
>>724638774Don't insult the sacred SB sect junior, they fought bravely against the demonic lionel of the endless escalation, to stop him from forcing his delusional conjuctions into reality...They failed, but still.
>>724641573What is the ax is multi use, like a transformer?

You might ask yourself, who is more annoying? Unironic Fang Yuan apologists or uniornic BoC fans? The answer is Mother Of Learning fans.
>>724670304>enter thread that wasn't talking about a book>complain about its fansheart demon
>>724670871It's true. Seeing one of your childhood favorites become utter dogshit and still be praised is something that requires purification to cleanse.
On a real note, why is the BoC so bad? Or atleast so hated here, beyond western xianxia hate boner.
Greetings dao brothers,Anyone has mod suggestions for Tale of Immortal?
>>724671196Because despite presenting itself as xianxia it goes out of its way to shit on the setting and show how much better the protagonist that doesn't engange with it is. Take that scene where the story has a narrative climax about the two brothers dreaming about becoming cultivators decide that being farmers is better. All of this because the protagonist was born with plot armor and doesn't have to worry about any enemy that comes his way.
I haven't played any Wuxia/Xianxia games in a little over a year, anything good come out in 2024 or 2025? I've already played the big games that came out before that
>>724671695Isn't that just world of cultivation? (The other one).
>>724650875It's disappointing how there's no more good Hong Kong kung fu movies produced nowadays. You'd think they will be producing a lot more quality stuff with the advance of technology, but alas.
>>724654887>"good or bad, follow what you believe, what your heart and mind say are right, regardless of morality.">If you lie to yourself and act as someone you aren't, truly, the world will push back.Because THAT is your Dao, rejecting that is rejecting yourself. Whoever is imparting you with that nugget of wisdom is profoundly wise indeed.
>>724665663I remember using a combination of sword, wind, and fire. Can't remember the specifics.

Seniors I need guidance. I found this female ancient draconic beast in a lower realm, I saved it from some rogue cultivators who were hunting it and now it owes me its life. Truth is, I really want it's dragon bloodline for my future generations, but its cultivaiton level is too low to use transformation arts to turn into a humanoid form, should I just go for it anyways? Please enlighten this junior.
>enjoy reading cn works>enjoy cn-adjacent works like thunderbolt fantasy>can't watch or play 99% of cn stuff because i'm unable to stomach spoken chinese.>something about the sound just causes my brain to stutter.go on without me, young masters...
>>724679861I think it's funny that most Chinese games nowadays prioritise JP over CN voice acting.Smart, but funny.
>>724679861It's even better when the MC is being super pretentious and composing an on the spot totally deep definitely not chuuni poem in the novel, and then you imagine what the chinese voicelines for it sound like
>>724625473is this still in chinese or is it finally in mtl
>>724624545Cheating & stealing is way more prevalent in chinese webnovels, both narrative wise ( goldfinger cheatcode - always )+ IRL too; with authors just copying successful templates like a checklist, ect.
>>724681262It's funny seeing them copying names though.I liked the chapter in LotM where Ed Sheeran showed up then got smote by lightning.

>>724679595Why not train with her until she can manifest her humanoid form then? Perhaps you might actually fall in love with her along the way instead of just using her for your personal gain. Remember this junior, countless cultivators strives for the top without ever attaining happiness only to die without leaving any mark in the world. I believe such a way of life is too sad. Grow with her, nourish her, be there for her until she blossoms into a peerless jade beauty.I know you actually prefer her draconic form, you disgusting vile beast.
I am kinda sadened there is so much potential for wacky, gimmicky, and unique fights in xianxia but it just sword wank and spell spam. I mean, why isn't there a daoist which stuff are based on kid games? Shit like that.

>>724638760>that picZAMN is there any manhwa/manhua with a MC that actually plaps women that look like that? I don't need it to be porn, but I'm so tired of these asexual Asian protags.
>>724683562I'd prefer if MC becomes peerless in one or two things, but instead they always learn dozens of techniques / spells only for their mastery of them to be puddle deep and forgotten soon after.
>>724685102Same shit happens to the super special natural treasures too.>when the Ten Thousand Year Heavenly Saint Spiritual Lotus the mc spent 5 chapters wanking over is just good enough for him to be several small realms below a random arrogant young master at the beginning of the next arc
>>724685321That's how xianxialand rolls, junior.>a country of a billion men produces one Ten Thousand Year Heavenly Saint Spiritual Lotus every ten thousand years>higher realm is a country of 10 quadrillion men, which produces 1000 per yearYou never see the hundred million lesser realms it takes to support a single greater realm, since the MC just sees one of each, but they're there.

>>724701468hmm?
>>724684707I Am The Fated Villain is chock full of huge assed titcows. The gimmick is the MC has a system that only levels him up for cucking protagonists so he builds a harem of their destined lovers.It's also just interesting and fun since the powerlevel shit is secondary to the main goal of just fucking with people he's never met before for no reason at all because a voice in his head tells him to.

>>724697778Taiwan is China. The RPC is a mongrel dog nation.
>>724701558If the world is filled with people that can wipe out a continent if they throw tantrum, you really have to make sure that the guy in charge can absolutely not be fucked with.
>>724701757If someone is mean to you today he'll be mean to someone else tomorrow. He can't be mean to anybody if everyone in his vicinity, him included, is dead.
>>724702030Are you trying to cultivate retardation with such a statement?
>>724702159>there's a city of 1 million people>it's possible that from that million, an evil cultivator will rise>that evil cultivator will torment 10 million people>therefore it's good and just to kill that 1 million people so that 10 million might live in peaceChink math makes sense.
>>724702231A bit of a stretch and it is perfectly possible that someone is mean to the MC without being an absolute shithead to everyone else. On the note of arrogant you masters I like the guy from Astral Sutra the most. He tried to fuck with the MC, eventually got btfo and stayed alive cause the MC showed mercy. Afterwards he stops being arrogant and actually helps out the MC multiple times, while still being a manipulative and driven guy towards others.
>>724699963I was really hyped for this until I found out it was service slop. Why are chinks to averse to full priced games?
>>724701787Bro trying so hard to lick the boot and his own country doesn't even recognize Taiwan. Sad
>>724702743China has a unique competitive advantage in GAAS because it's the only country that can actually produce content fast enough to keep AAA GAAS engaging. If Japan was making Genshin they'd take 6 years to get to Inazuma
>>724702743no one wants to wait for 5~10 years to be able to play the sequel
>>724625069It's a satisfying ending for what it is but we're done really dirty by how there was no S5
>>724702743eh, it has a single player campaign and from what I hear all the micro-transactions are just cosmeticI can deal with that
>>724626396I think there is a 'tamer' version of it on the Steam Workshop, but one of the 'lewd mods' on the Chinese modding sites for Tales of Immortal has the stuff you're literally looking for. I know this because I've played with that mod before but no longer have it. From memory, the mod contains:>Has pregnancy from conducting double-cultivation between males and females (only females get pregnant, no mpreg shit)>While pregnant they get debuffs until they give birth>Brothels in every major town (the real big one where auctions happen) in every region, which both males and female cultivators can visit 'for fun' or sell themselves if female>Having sex too much, especially as a female, can cause you to get a bad trait that turns you towards Dark and gives some debuffs because you become 'more interested in sex than actual cultivation'>When you defeat another cultivator in a non-tournament fight, you can choose to 'humiliate' (rape) them if the opponent was the opposite gender>If the opponent you defeated was female, you can also 'bring them to a brothel to sell them'>If someone gets sold to a Brothel this way, they have to work off their debt by working as a whore>They can become pregnant while working in the Brothel (contraceptives don't exist)>The fate of babies born from whores at the Brothel depends on gender - males just get sent out to the world after adulthood, while females get 'taught' how to be a whore and eventually also becomes a whore as well>While most characters will pay their debt and leave the Brothel as soon as they have the money to do so, if they become addicted to sex, they might choose to never leave the Brothel and stay there as a whore instead (sometimes ending up with millions of gold banked up)>The player can pay money to 'bail out' a Brothel whore, though if they're addicted to sex and their hated enemy who put them there is still around, they could end up in there again shortly after anyway
>>724627049I really like burgexploitation.
>>724675151I liked Beware of Chicken.
>>724646229woah woah woah there is a lotm game coming out?yooooooooooooooooooooooo
>>724704449The chinks are going all in on LotM. Anime, movies, games, books, all you can think of.
>>724704601damn they are actually doing for something I really like.did I fall into the best universe or something? I was holding off on reading lotm2 until more came out but mb I should just go read it
>>724628681>you have eyes but cannot see mt tai>someone threatened to beat me up>kick his ass>Suddenly he call his family/bro/sis/ect. to murder me for kick his ass.
the only LotM content I'm looking forward to is an official translation, I tried reading the webnovel al while ago but couldn't deal with the rough translation
>>7246602261994 your uncultured rube
>inb4 i have eyes but cannot see mt tai blah blahwhat is LotM2? what makes it good?
>>724706386Lord of the Mysteries. Western inspired xianxia, but eldritch victorian era setting.
>>724706386i'm 400 chapters in right now, and i really like the main character
>>724706425Klein or Lumian?
>>724706425>400 chapters>still not finishedYou could clear postgame in a JRPG with that kinda time
>>724706579klein was fun, but i like lumian even more>>724706595but what if i don't want to clear postgame in a jrpg
>>724706595Just read faster
>>724623185There any good ones? Or at last ones with an English translation. I always liked the idea of Wuxia games due to being a stat whore,but most that I tried tended to be rather boring.
>>724706665I don't either, which begs the question what the fuck kind of padding they're writing to emulate a JRPG's own padding.>>724706725That's like advising to set a tv series at 4x speed to get through it faster. I mean, you're not wrong, but that really kills the experience.
>>724706792Reading is something you get naturally faster at the more you do it
>>724624269Yes, I do in fact like seeing the good side of humanity, chinks can't fathom this.
>>724703864is any of it in english or all just chingchong?
>>724706896How would you feel if you didn't have anything to eat yesterday?Anyone who passed primary school before common core kicked in can read fast. That's not the point. The point is you're setting a movie to 4x speed.
I just started playing Hero's Adventure again. It has been several months. I will kill everyone this time
>>724707202these people terrify me
>>724707202No it's not. You consume read information at your own pace, while a tv show gets fed to you. These things are not at all comparable
>>724707346>I just started playing Hero's Adventure again.Many such cases, don't think I ever completed the whole thing.
>>724630151Gotta be nature for me. Merging with the plant hivemind to reincarnate as a mushroom person probably goes against the teachings of daoism, but I can live with that
>>724707506>A book is only informationI genuinely feel pity towards you.
>>724708261nigger why are you pretending that a TV show with a fixed duration and playback speed is remotely comparable to reading, which is an active engagement rather than passive reception?
>>724708750>fixed durationThe real-time duration is directly at your control so long as you have the technical prowess to press the fast forward button.
>>724707703For me it's the difficulty spikes that just fuck me over. I get the game is meant to be played multiple times so that you can keep picking up passives for your next playthrough but some of the harder fights are pure bullshit.
>>724709025>but some of the harder fights are pure bullshitReflect is the biggest BS around
>>724708880I can not put into words how wrong you are.(You probably don't read books daily) In hindsight it should have been obvious from the breakfast question and the aphantasia pic
>>724709171>man who cannot put things into words accuses others of being bad with wordsIt is true that winds howl around the highest peaks. You set out for wool only to come back shorn.
>>724630151For me it's the drunken fist, shame about no gaems though
>>724706386I've only heard that it's underwhelming compared to its predecessor, and I'm not really in the mood to spend 1k chapters worth of time reading it
>>724707346It pisses me off that party members are pretty useless on higher difficulties and the meta seems to be defense maxxing and hitting auto battle
>>724697206wrong thread nipfag
>>724710549I hope they change that with the next game
>>724624107https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1nplefywEFI
>>724711219Oh shit, there is another (haha...) hero's adventure coming out, and next year already. Something to look forward to. I wonder how the English translation will keep up with it
>>724709380It's more that I can't be arsed to write a 200 word essay from my phone
>>724706386COI is quite a slog compared to LotM, mostly since there's no strong mystery at that point. The author also mentioned that he couldn't do it a proper justice due to established setting rules in the afterword.
>>724712732The retarded nigger writer wrote a book for "new readers" and not his already established fanbase. Fuck him.
>>724624107Are the chinese just naturally sociopathic? How fucked is the world if a chinaman gets superpowers?
>>724712984You have no idea, they had literally dozens of major famines and the only ones to survive that stuff were backstabbing cutthroat sociopaths and now most of china descends from them. If they did get superpowers we'd be fucked real hard.
>>724712984They are, but let's not act like the average westerner wouldn't do the same if fiction were made reality. If you give a random person the powers of a fantasy protagonist you'd more than likely end up with someone who takes all power and murders everyone they don't like. An american would march into the CIA's headquarters, get a list of everyone who voted for the party they don't like, and like that 50% of america would be consigned to death. The chinks simply don't have the same flavor of suppressive virtue signaling since all they have to do is praise the glory of china.
I ask again. What even is cultivation?
LOTM is good but my pet favorite cuttlefish book will always be Throne of Magical Arcana just because it's so hilarious that the entire power system is just LITERALLY being a Dungeon & Dragons 3.5 Wizard, down to starting off with Acid Splash as the MC's first cantrip and working his way up to 9th level spells like Time Stop and Meteor Swarm.also the only cuttlefish book with romance where the heroine is a gigastacy lady knight
>>724713864Levelling up in style.
>>724712984The west is just domesticated cattle, the nature of mankind is cruelty and violence.
>>724709074I think the Confucius sect has an internal that makes you immune to reflect.
>>724707202I refus3 to believe this kids arent memeing.
>>724713864Hitting the gym, but there's no limit to your growth.
>>724707202that remained me, the people before colored television apparently dream in black and white, do they imagine apple in black and white too?
>>724627049I just finished reading A Will Eternal and it was my first Er Gen novel. Is him going "This may have taken a long time to describe but it all happened in the time it took a frog to slurp up a fly" some kind of inside joke? It kills my immersion every time
>>724713864simple answer: you know how in dragonball z normal people can train hard enough to eventually crack planets and fly through space and shit? It's a genre inspired by the same eastern myths and historical practices that inspired DBZ (including the upper realms and other planets and weird shit like that)long answer: cultivation refers to cultivating immortality, usually through either daoist or Buddhist techniques and internal alchemy, in this genre characters gain superhuman powers and learn fighting techniques and skills that involve channeling ki/qi and gradually ascending the ranks to essentially godhood. In Wuxia, the limit is basically being a low level superhuman and doesn't usually increase lifespan beyond a hundred years, a skilled swordsman can take on a hundred enemies but not an army of thousands, and it's almost always set in the real world as historical fiction featuring various famous real world martial arts groups like the Shaolin temple or the Ming cult. Think very early Dragonball. In Xianxia, cultivation increases lifespan and power exponentially with each stage with no real upper limit. It's almost always set in a fictional world that's enormously massive compared to the real world, and as characters grow in power they can live for tens of thousands of years, cross millions of miles in an instant, blow up entire planets or even stars, and their techniques stop resembling traditional martial arts and are more like wizard spells or superhero energy blasts. Think late Dragonball Z. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xianxia
>thread is nearing the end of its lifespan>won't be able to break through into the next realmIt was nice seeing you guys again... Who knows when we'll next meet
>>724712984The whole chink phylosophy can boiled down to karmatic retribution.>I did a thing, whatever it's good or not depends if of the consequences.>I stole moneys -> but i didn't get caught -> that means Heavens wanted me to do that>I didn't cheat at my test -> i got a poor score -> that means i did a bad thing>i wipe out this sect even the innocent children -> people love me and praise me because it was a bad sect -> i did a good thing
>>724707130>he says while looking at gore webms on /pol/ all day
>>724714616Fun factI never went on /pol/, sorry you can't relate.
>>724714368Not exactly a joke but it is a trope of xianxia itself. They are superhuman after all
>>724714515>it's a likeable side character has this exact problem so he lays down all of his burdens, gives up all of his stresses, stops caring about his inevitable death, and just genuinely enjoys and appreciates the very limited life he has left episode>episode ends with him having a sudden, accidental breakthrough through sheer enlightenmentpure chinese kino
>>724707202Regarding that pic, i'd imagine these are the kinds of people that hate on popular cast members, simply because they're not the main protagonist.>example; Uchiha Sasuke being favored way more than Naruto for most of the series.In other words; they cannot place themselves inside the mind of another viewpoint. they HAVE to be spoonfed via interlude, or spinoff series / fanfics in which we follow a diff character as the MC.I also think they're the same kinds of posters that cant wrap their head around the idea of a guy playing a female character, without self-inserting automatically.
>>724701613>I Am The Fated Villain is chock full of huge assed titcows.but is there actual plapping?
>>724714847I can barely remember a novel with notable side characters, most of them revolve around the MC all the time.
>>724714368I don't know if Er Gen was aware it's a meme and played into it, but he's not the only one who uses phrases like that. The opportunity for the phrase comes up a lot more than in other media because in xianxia there's a lot of nuanced shit going on all at once and everyone moves at insane speeds.Plus authors are paid by the chapter, so they're incentivized to drag out descriptions for a single action.
>>724714545It's more about confucianism.Anyway, I'll make a cultivation webnovel about samsara and the dao heart, any shitposting ideas for the lolz?>>724715076Ah, chinese prose.
>>724715065I Shall Seal the Heavens have pretty strong secondary characters. They're not 'focused' on per se but fatty, his sister, his frenemies etc all have pretty distinct personalities and arcs.
>>724715164Chen Erniu from Beyond the Timescape is pure kino. The part where his ex-wife banned oxen and some peanut gallery described in detail the story and punishments related was hilarious.
>>724715065>the novel where the side character is way better than the MC in every way
>>724628681>coughing up three handfuls of blood in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn
>>724701204Y-YOU DARE! YOU CAN'T DO THAT! TH-THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! K-KOWTOW BEFORE THIS DADDYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>724714545That would explain much of their behavior
>>724639749Don't forget the cooking arc or some bullshit were the MC doesn't give a crap over civilians suffering because he is too busy collecting mushrooms only to get angry and shocked when everyone is dead.
>>724624107Based
okay faggots can you actually reccomend some vidya if you're gonna shit up this board with fucking novel shit? I actually think this chinese martial arts and cultivation stuff seems interesting.Cultivation Simulator, Tales of Immortal and Wandering Sword all seem like cool games but also interested in any non autistic-core games. Sorry if I came off aggressive anons I just really want to play games like this after beating it to Yixuan from ZZZ for the past few months
>>724639175Its like when you say maybe those tanks should not have run those students over. The chinese are fine doing terrible things as long as they are not called out for it but will get very angry at you for.calling them put for it. Say there was a chinaman that beat the fuck out of his family even beyond normal chinese parenting standards. While their neighbors would agree that what hes doing in bad they would actually be more mad if he had a daughter that actually reported him to the authorities. This is their entire mindset and they have throw a melty if you shatter their delusions
>>724713864Depends if it's Xianxia or Wuxia, Xianxia is high fantasy and Wuxia low fantasy, basically in Xianxia is about deities, monsters and demons, and cultivators sit in their ass and meditate for centuries, but MC will somehow bypass all the hard labor of others have to put and strip others of resources and opportunities, meanwhile Wuxia is more about secret techniques, body builder with superpowers and dynasty fighting, more down to ground.
>>724715868That's a long time to be coughing up blood.
>>724714545>yes>should have practiced the dao of safe wallets>actually study for next time, i didn't cheat so parents will eat my dog for bad grades>the innocent children were jews... i mean, devil cultivators all alongNow in a serious note, innocent die because nobody can't give a shit about bystanders when you can literally get beheaded the moment you blink and your merit laws can destroy anything easily.Chinks do cheat a lot because of expectations being so high they don't care about the process, only the result and nothing more.The money part looks like it's more about the jews now that I remember that vid of some kike saying "he had to steal the house or somebody else would do so anyway".>>724713363Holy shit, it would be nightmarish. The whole world would become current UK in primordial immortal energy steroids.
>>724715065Anyone else beside the MC are props
>>724717094>ZZZJunior, you are testing my patience. But I'll bite and recommend you Xuan-Yuan Sword games, I think they must be on Steam.
>>724717518sorry senior but I have to give credit to the thing that taught me what a shifu was and other general chinese lingo, only other place I remember seeing shit like this was jackie chan movies. I know about Xuan Yuan Sword and Legend of Sword and Fairy so looking for other stuff
>>724717472If you're a dumbass retard maybe. Reverend Insanity has entire chapters about side characters and they really flesh out the world.
>>724717094>martial arts>non autistic-coreGo for something like Dynasty Warriors, I recommend Origins. It's quite good.>cultivation stuff>non autistic-coreThe idea of cultivation itself is autistic, so I'm not sure what to recommend. Think about it, hunting super rare esoteric ingredients for pills, studying elaborate scriptures to comprehend techniques, sitting around meditating for centuries to get stronger, etc.
>>724717828fuck it I guess we can go full autismo, any noteworthy games besides the ones mentioned before? DW Origins already seemed cool so il play that too
>>724717676>MC>very important side character>literally who?>important side character (not important)>MC>MC>important side character (RIP my boy)>literally who?>nobody>very important side character (fat bastard mode)>potential woman>very important side character (fat bastard but cute girl now)>literal NPC>literally who?
>>724624107>a thousand year of stories about being goody two shoes>somehow this creates a doggy dog world that's constantly at warThe stories only exist to placate the population while it's getting ass raped
>>724717253>friend go some chink messaging her on Instagram>"you can make money setting online store, give me $100 to teach you how">friend says no and chink calls her a poorfag>friend blocks chinks and learns racism>told her she should have call him small dick ching chong dog eater chink, report his account and report him to the chink commie party for next time>>724717639Junior... Fuck. I'm out of ideas, ask the High Heavens and go crazy with steam search by writing down generic wuxia/xianxia terms. Don't know anything new you may not know about.>>724717360After dealing with polarized americans, chinks can expect more sympathy from me by comparison. What they write is so sick and shit it's no wonder they lost all their soft power to japs, chinks and gooks.In fact, anytime I watch or read westernslop I end up rooting for the villain.
>>724714847>>724715065I remember there's one character in one of Mao Ni's stories who was MC's senior brother who was both the the slowest and fastest cultivator. IIRC spent like 20 years at the lowest level, then just broke through literally every realm to reach the peak overnight.
>>724717094Just wait literally 2 weeks for Where Winds Meet
>>724717828>Sitting around meditating for centuries to get stronger.Only noobs do that, what are you? From Tang Dynasty?
>>724714675fun fact: I don't believe you and I'm 100% sure that you have a folder of gore webms
>>724718202in that case he's probably mainly using /gif/ instead. That's where the gore shit is at these days, /pol/ is just cuck porn spam shit due to indians, turks and jews no politics.
>>724718202Projection much? Sad anon hours
>>724717639>credit to the thing that taught me what a shifu was and other general chinese lingo>only other place I remember seeing shit like this was jackie chan moviesYou walk a very thin line, disciple. If not for the mention of Patriarch Chen, I'd have you kowtow 1000 time, mutilate your body, and exterminate nine generations of your family including the chickens and dogs. Since you know about Patriarch Chen, I will be kind. I will only cripple all three of your dantians and cut your arms!
>>724718083Im gonna just assume Cultivation Simulator, TOI and Wandering Sword are basically the ONLY games worth playing then got it. I guess I see why everyone goes to novels quick in these threads.>>724718149Not super sold on this cause its an MMO and I dont need some big budget release like that or DWO I just figured there would be something besides Wuchang that could be recommended to me but il go on my own search. Useless Seniors
>>724624107>average western story>saturday morning cartoon tier meant to lull you into cattle mode>average chinese story>just be a mensch and seize power son, if it's not you it's somebody elsePretty much.
>>724634890I loved how every villain cucked him out of his climax except for the murderhobo.
>>724717978Other than those you mentioned, I like Hero's Adventure and Matchless Kung Fu. Though be warned, Matchless Kung Fu's translation is quite... esoteric.
>>724714545Westerners had the same concept, the Romans called it "fortuna" and in English they'd call it "providence", it's pretty much the concept of fate and often personified as the divine having a will to steer events in an unpredictable way. But sometimes it could be influenced by one's own morality.The other side of it is the concept of a "moral universe", basically the idea that the orderly and harmonious actions of people are directly tied to the harmonious and orderly functioning of the universe, and so humans have a moral duty to act a certain way. The ancient Egyptians had a concept called ma'at which represented this and westerners absorbed it in different ways. Indian religion has a similar concept called "dharma", karma is a closely related concept that was inherited by the Buddhists.Both of these ideas, the "random universe" and the "moral universe" arise from different facets of the human experience. Society functions better when everyone acts like we're in the moral universe, but observation tells you we must be in the random universe.So how do you reconcile these concepts? It's simple - just decide the will of the "random universe" must always be the correct thing the "moral universe" demanded. Whatever heaven wills must be what's morally right, because it's heaven's will, because heaven's will is morally right... pulling yourself up by the celestial bootstraps. So if you arrange some sticks and turtle shells and they tell you to disembowel your enemies, you were simply acting in accordance with the universe.It's not just a Chinese thing, swap in the word "God" and it sounds a lot like western philosophy before the 18th-19th century. Or hell, even today. Do bad stuff and get bad events = "God punished them". Do good stuff and get bad events = "God has a plan for everyone". How many times have you heard that one?
>>724718721>not transcending the will of heaven and surviving tribulation
>>724718158Spoken like a cur with shaky, hole-ridden dao. I'm willing to bet a newborn rat is better at comprehending the world than a raggedy mongrel like you.
Why are people so mean in this thread?
>>724718721Sorry 'non but your readings are wrong:>Fortune: This is basically just luck, lady luck. Basically all that jazz. Romans just had a god for everything so Fortuna was the personification of Luck itself. (Lady Luck.)>Providence. Being under the guidance of something higher that protects you and watches over you. (God.)>Destiny: Things that are to come to pass for you. (Its in my destiny, think destination.)>Fate: The way a thing is going to happen, three fates; past, present and future.Hope this helps.
>>724712984The only difference is that the chinese don't virtue signal in their fiction.
>>724719140The weak are evil for they lack strength.
>>724719140This is par for the course between cultivators. Go back to your mommy's tits if you can't even trade bantz in /xianxia/.
>>724719140You deserved to be cucked from the day you were born without Yang chi, you fatherless coward.
>>724719140You dare speak of uprightness? You are a boor. To compare you to me is to compare a jackdaw to a phoenix.
>>724719304>and then the NEXT area is based on japan and it's full of STINKY SMELLY IDIOTS and the based chinese mc KILLS 'EM ALLYou only say this because you have a different set of virtues.
>>724719140Most cultivators are physically incapable of being kind
>>724719552Their Yin energy is low, Yang energy is high.
>>724719552They need that corporate psychopathic grindset or else they are toast. That is why trusted family members are so important.
>>724719658>They need that corporate psychopathic grindset or else they are toastAll cultivators are just different incarnations of Patrick Bateman
>>724719140You didn't give face to your Elders.You didn't kowtow in apology.You and your ancestors to the 10th generation will suffer for this.
>>724719820Not true, plenty of them are utter failures who fall in love with women.
You guys are alright, don't go to Mt. Tai tomorrow.
>>724720042Those were the failed incarnations, women were created as the great filter to stop cultivators from reaching the peak
>>724719525>You only say this because you have a different set of virtues.NTA but I think that's a valid viewpoint. It's boring to see the same shit over and over. I appreciate Chinese stories for at least being different. In western media it's like>uhhh everything and everyone everywhere is morally grey, i'm so grey right now ugghh everything is grey it's just like my game of thrones broAnd since our culture stopped changing entirely around 2012 that trend never ended and it just keeps fucking going. I swear GTA VI is going to have the same fucking theme, "ohhh we're criminals and we do bad stuff ohhh but we're humans too, it's so morally grey aaah I'm gonna cum grey goo in my pants from how grey it is ooooh"At least some of these protags can be unapologetically evil and selfish but win anyway. Or have heroes that are simply strong and good without some big undermining flaw or humiliating secret.
>>724645651uh no?>random teng family clan member attacks a caravan because he's an arrogant faggoty little cultivator>wang lin quite rightfully bodies the freakazoid>teng family gets extremely butthurt because they're all arrogant faggoty little cultivators who think they can do what they want>teng family make the worst mistake of their fucking lives by wronging wang lin in the worst way possible and traumatizing him forever>wang lin simply returns the favorwang lin did nothing wrong, unless you think he was morally obligated to just roll over and fucking die I guess
I thoroughly enjoy when anons are jabbing insults at each other like cultivators, since I'm too dumb to do that. Have a good one you faggots.
>Caught up with RINow what? The rest of the genre seems to be written by anything but humans and can only be enjoyed ironically. Has bugland produced anything worth reading besides RI and LoTM?
>>724718492You can say the wuxia/xianxia genre is quite NOVEL when it comes to vidya, what we see is just the beginning, junior.
>>724720296The worst part is the: Government is always right, villains always lose, no scary ghosts or gore allowed.Its so dumb.
>>724719140You're lucky I'm only on the first stage of Qi Refining. Else this grandpa would face slap you so hard through my monitor that your ancestors could feel it
>>724720673True, but in western games the government is always wrong, there's no such thing as heroes or villains, and everything is gory for no reason. It's just different which I appreciate.
>>724720539You could try Shadow Slave but it's written by a gweilo, or A Regressor's Tale of Cultivation written by a g*ok.
>>724717828All MC's nowadays use cheats/golden finger, the only time MC now cultivates is for a breakthrough, and they can even do it mid combat like is no big deal, I miss the days when Golden Pill was the ceiling of power.
>>724720780Sometimes the government is right when you are playing under them, there's just a few bad apples usually that you stop on the way, otherwise government is good or fully corrupt and rebellion is the only way through.
>>724639410https://weibo.com/1678843974/NtTA8hAwi#commentThey're aware people meme about it although they seem to be older type style novels from what I could translate in the comments. I wouldn't imagine saying cultivation novels are emblematic of the books as a whole unless people legitimately regard isekai LNs as what Japanese literature is or those korean levelup comics as the same
>>724720813What novel has Breaker vibes? The korean manhwa that was before the webtoon's popularity? (Highly powered Tekken-Esque fighting and cultivation.)
>>724658317>He got the nickname "dead wife demon venerableholy kek that's a brutal insult
Wait was bejita a young master?
>>724714039Only whites can see things
>>724719140We need to bully any possible MC before they rise to prominence, such is the law of heaven.
>>724720984Essentially
>>724719140Where is this little creature from?
>>724720942"System Genre" (character interacts with game interface to get more powerful doing RPG things, Solo Levelling)/"LIT-RPG" (character exists in a world with stats build into its core mechanics but might not interact with them just they are tracked and visible to readers, more like Arifureta) are both their own genres.
>>724720409Wasn't that the guy Wang Lin stole the foundation from?
>>724721108yeah
>>724720813I caught up with Shadow Slave after Sunny got his true name BIRD' out of him and decided to wait until the story progressed further to pick it back up again. May check a regressor's tale of cultivation, tho. Guess I'll have to continue cursing the CCP for censoring RI.
Be honest with me, fellow Daoists. What would it take to be a kind cultivator? I do not have it in my heart to practice the way of coldness, but I still wish to open my meridians.
>>724720984>prince of a planet kingdom>an elite of his race>smug to a faultPretty much.
>>724720673For me it's>homeland treats mc like actual shit>everyone from the rulers to the nobility to the merchants to the commoners are humongous assholes who engage in wanton acts of cruelty for completely arbitrary reasons>mc constantly talks about getting his revenge and how everyone in this shitty nation is rotten to the core>hundreds of chapters later>homeland is faced with some kind of threat or invasion>suddenly it's the greatest place on earth and so noble and the mc is full of patriotism and determination to protect his homeland and its great people (note: the people don't actually act any different from before)
>>724720780More like "government is le bad if it's right wing, straight and white, diversity is our strength" "can't have boobies because puriants and social justice warriors freak out and our jewish overlords can't sell blacked subscriptions so have le hypocritical gore and blood!" "censor everything le... bad and edgy, visa mastercard-sama save meeeeeeee!!!!".Fucking God, everything from the west is just Marvel comics tier. Thanks God we have french comics and animation.>>724721165Curse Dead Wife Demon Venerable while you are on it.
>>724707460Don't be rude to body cultivators.
>>724719820There's a couple like Meng Hao that stand above the rest by just wanting to not be fucked with instead of aggressively hurting bystanders in pursuit of power.
>>724721183Literally the way of the Buddha, say goodbye to your hair. But your techniques do tend to have golden swastika motifs, so there is that.
/v/bros.... I went out yesterday and got accosted by members of the beggar sect. How do I deal with this?
>>724721212kek, yeah. That's some shitty writing. You don't put the chekov's gun (want for revenge) into the story if you don't act upon it in any way (at least punishing the wrong doers who personally harmed the character) through the MC's actions.
>>724715065the sword spirit wang lin had was pretty damn funny
>>724721183Focus on Reiki and Massage Therapy (Acupuncture) alongside standard Qigong practice.
>>724721331I'm not dealing with those faggots, go deal with it yourself. It's ridiculous how beggars sect is always one of the stronger sects. Where the hell did they even get high level cultivation resources/artifacts?
>>724721323But I want to still practice dual cultivation with a a girl from the Emei Sect. Is there truly no way to preserve a morality of goodwill toward my fellow daoists?also the best jade beauties are the ones with full peaches and all of you can get slapped back to your hometown if you disagree>>724721331Join the Hao Clan and start spreading rumors about there being an infection among beggars through the butcher / fishmonger news pipeline, brother.
>>724623185Anyone playing Celestial Empire? Is kinda Chinese city building with faith system to boost your progress and evil demons trying to ruin your city and citizens, I find it decent if you like city building genre.
>>724721212As long have valuable worth, everything is cool. No talent, backing or resources? For chinks you are less than nothing.>>724721183Help people and don't be an asshole. Just that, however don't be a naive moralfag even in the context of chink fantasy setting.Not only that would ensure your death, you would be like an american white woman tourist walking down in the most dangerous slums of India.
>>724721108>>724721158>tries to steal wang's foundation>gets his stolen insteadand how is wang lin the bad guy again? is he supposed to just forgive him?
>>724720539Mao Ni is my favorite author. Very verbose style though.
>>724721559It's not that part, it's the part where he wipes out an entire countries worth of people including all woman and children 300 year after his own folks were killed.
>>724721424>>724721556I wasn't looking for actual advice, but thank you for teaching me this, fellow cultivator.I don't want to be as callous as the Tang Clan's main bloodline second master, but I think I can avoid being naive. Thank you, fellow daoist.
>>724721331Next time some bum puts hands on you, just hammer fist their solar plexus and watch them keel over, ridge hand their chin, if they persist karate chop their temple or elbow them.
>>724721643he cant risk anything less than total teng genocide unless he wants the teng clan to be assholes to himblame teng li, not wang lin
>>724721606When is that fat fuck writing a new book?
>>724719140We are too poor to affors qithium pills, so we developed a way to make our demon heart into bootleg stands.
>>724721861Why bother? Everybody he cared about is already dead and since he's constantly growing stronger there is literally nothing the survivors of Tang could possibly do to him. They aren't even on the same realm as him and don't forget he wiped out a small country worth of people which has obvious aftereffects on yet more people.All for a temper tantrum.
>>724722168So wang lin was supposed to cope and seethe because he wasn't strong enough at the time and when he was strong enough, he's somehow morally obligated to not seek revenge anymore?againnot his faultkarmic cause and effectblame teng li
>>724722659Ultimately yes, it was on Teng Li, but vengeance is also done by killing him and his immediate family, the whole country-wiping thing is what I call a tantrum.
