>more than 100 routesImagine that, imagine all the choices. Amazing.
>>725970350does he still post monthly updates on Steam ?
Do I really need to become a hated lolcow for my game to get attention? Do I really have to do that?
>>725970496just make a good game retard, and don't appeal to 4chan niggers
>>725970585What about 4chan whites? Should I appeal to them?
Imagine all the if/else chains.
>>725970664bad idea since this site is 80% indian
>>725970943if/else chain in themselves aren't bad (if there aren't 10+ of them in a row)It's how and when you call them
>>725970585>and don't appeal to 4chan niggersWhat does that mean?
>>725971171>optimization in a 2d pixel gamewho cares
>>725971319it means you're retarded
>>725970585>just make a good game retardI did. Nobody bought it because nobody knows it exists. And I don't know what to do to get eyes on it.
>>725970454Yes, but they're 'updates' in that they only change a few dialogue strings or small, incredibly minor things.
>>725970454>>725971810looks like a way to avoid getting labelled as 'abandoned early access' by steam.
what happened to this retard
>>725971672It's not about performance, it's about maintainability. His code is so bad it looks unironically unsalvageable.
Which caused more damage? Refusing to finish his Undertale clone?Leaving his teammates to die in Dire Maul and refusing any accountability?His baffling levels of hatred for SKG?Or was it all some perfect storm that nuked his probably-astroturfed popularity? I remember seeing his EVE video about Pochvin and laughing because it sounded like something the EVE devs might pull at this point but it wasn't until a rewatch I saw a bunch of comments drama calling him out for bullshit. That was before the blowout too.Guy had it made and just couldn't stop fucking up.
>>725976553>Refusing to finish his Undertale clone?No. His fans were sucking his dick despite of this.>Leaving his teammates to die in Dire Maul and refusing any accountability?This was definitely one of the factors>His baffling levels of hatred for SKG?Perhaps it's about the levels, yeah. A lot of his arguments outed him as the corporate cock sucker he is, and more importantly, he should have realized he was not supposed to take sides like that because the mob would crucify anyone who dared oppose what reddit was saying.The hatred itself isn't even baffling because SKG is unironically retarded, so being against it in and of itself it is the right perspective.>Or was it all some perfect storm that nuked his probably-astroturfed popularity?This all came at the perfect time. What amazes me is how people went along with his bullshit for so long.
>>725977403>The hatred itself isn't even baffling because SKG is unironically retarded, so being against it in and of itself it is the right perspective.Explain?All the SKG is asking for new games made to have some form of backup options if the servers are turned off for good. Even if its just partial or reliant on the users themselves providing the server.This isn't some forbidden, long lost tech big corpos are just lazy and greedy.
>>725971794link it and I'll download it, post it on rin and then refund it
>>725977698Pic related is the plan of the EU, whose dick half the world was sucking and while asking it to pass even more retarded regulations during SKG. ChatControl wasn't voted on because it eventually gained too much opposition (most countries still supported it), then they put it on hold a month or two ago. Now they came out with this all of a sudden. I don't want tech-illiterate bureaucrats in the EU to regulate anything else. They've done enough damage already. I'm from the EU, and it's already a miserable existence using the internet from here.>All the SKG is asking for new games made to have some form of backup options if the servers are turned off for goodThe very premise is insane. In most cases, this ranges from extremely complicated and costly to impossible, speaking from a technical/licensing/logistical/marketing POV. It'd just lead to more region blocking for europoors. And it's not like games are different from any other online service.They should have asked for something that actually makes a difference, like legalizing cracks and private servers, even if only for out of service games. But they didn't have the balls for that.
I CAN RUN ON A REFRIGERATOR
>>725970350He went from 15k+ viewers a stream to now barely 3k. He really should have just went 'my bad'
>>725971794pay some small youtuber to play it. if a few thousand people see your game and word of mouth doesn't spread then it's simply not that good
>>725976553The whole point of his existence is to gain a lot of fraudulent reputation just for everything to crumble later for SKG to succeed. Crazy play by our divine masters.
the single funniest thing about this dude was when he went on an internet therapist's show, and despite knowing nothing about the guy the therapist clocked him as a rampant narcissist within like 15 minutes and told him to fuck off.
3k bots*
>>725971030You fags always forget how many latams also shit up this place
heh
>>725979804>plan of the EUNo, it's just Denmark. Sweden should really just invade them and split them with Germany.
>>725972431It is, he did the first one of these tiny updates a few days after valve brought that in and his game was labelled abandoned
>>725989532Sweden literally supports it too.
Why are there so many scam games that end in -bound?
>>725970350>the supposed scandal already blew over>SKG fell into obscurity>Heartbound keeps getting praised by real gamersThor won...
>>725989532>>725990748And it really isn't just Denmark's thing in general. The EU has been shitting and pissing itself trying to get this passed, and you know they will succeed one day.The same thing is going on with age verification/mandatory IDs on the internet. Shitholes like the UK and Australia have already done it, the EU is planning it very hard, and even the US is in on the fun.
>>725982608>trusting jeet therapistsSAAR
>>725976553His downfall was thinking he could trust fellow streamers to not feed him to the corn for content. The Dire Maul thing was objectively the sped rogue's fault for making a bad call but he saw his chance to create content so he mined it. I don't blame anyone but PirateSoftware for putting himself in the hands of twitch kids when his fake sense of superiority would always clash with them eventually. He killed his own career and I don't pity him at all.
>>725979804>They should have asked for something that actually makes a difference, like legalizing cracks and private servers, even if only for out of service games. But they didn't have the balls for that.This pisses me off so much it's unreal. Legal protection for reverse engineered servers for games no longer offered by their publisher would have been a huge win. Some regulation targeting specifically single player games that can be rendered completely unplayable due to some retarded always online DRM would have been good too. But they bundled that with a legal quagmire that threatens to tank the whole thing at best or cause damage to the industry at worst.
>>725979804>I'm from the EU, and it's already a miserable existence using the internet from here.I'm from the EU too, and I have no idea what you mean. What's the miserable part? I appreciate EU forcing every site into giving you a chance of opting out of cookies
>>725991831Yeah, reverse engineering should be explicitly protected for offline and online games as well. It is also ridiculous you literally break the law if you crack an offline game or program that you paid for. Again, games shouldn't be different from any other programs.Emulation could also actually save tens of thousands of games. It's be nice it someone from the EU could host a Switch emulator and be confident that there is no way Nintendo could ruin their lives if he doesn't take it down. But that would mean real changes that empower people, and the elite doesn't like that. Neither do consumer cattle, who just want everything done for them and made available on Steam by the government instead of demanding rights to take things into their own hands first.
>>725993030>reverse engineering should be explicitly protectedI don't disagree with you, but that sounds even less likely to pass than SKG, by a lot
>>725993030Some games are just straight up unplayable now because emulators are extremely hit and miss past the PS2 era except Nintendo which I guess didn't have the motivation or capability to invent novel system architectureLeast Ar Tonelico 3 was the shittiest one
>>725970496>hated lolcow for my game to get attention?attention? suresales? lolno
>>725991095Get off 4chan, Jason
>>725979804>This initiative calls to require publishers that sell or license videogames to consumers in the European Union (or related features and assets sold for videogames they operate) to leave said videogames in a functional (playable) state.>Specifically, the initiative seeks to prevent the remote disabling of videogames by the publishers, before providing reasonable means to continue functioning of said videogames without the involvement from the side of the publisher.This is pasted verbatim from the Citizens Initiative website, how is it unreasonable? I don't see how you can claim that it excludes options like the ones you're proposing.
>>725991443Doesn't matter if the Rogue made a shit call if Jason had over the last few days 1, made a big deal out of how Mages are so important and can save wipes, and that's why he plays Mage2, actively shat on new players by acting superior and giving unsolicited advice3, acting like he's gods gift to Wowowaca despite being dogshit (at an incredibly simple, solved game)and 4, being unable to ever take blame or responsibility, despite being more than happy to do that unto othersKill yourself, Jason, I know you're in here
>>725993183Absolutely, the elite (politicians and corporations) would want to fight this with fire.But at least this is closer to the right questions. Even if nothing will pass, I'd rather we talk about the right questions rather than waste energy arguing about vague arcane bullshit that is SKG and risk half-assing it (and, god save us, make the EU come up with something we all know is going to be retarded).
>>725993343Yep, the PS2 is one of those systems which will unironically never get a proper working emulator. I tried it multiple times, then I read the forum posts of developers, and knew it would be best to let it go.The 3DS is another one.
>>725993919>require publishers that sell or license videogamesTaking issue with it right here. Why the restriction to "video games"? Have you tried to buy other computer programs legally? It's absolute cancer. Games aren't special in this regard at all.>require publishers [...] to leave said videogames in a functional (playable) state.This is extremely generic and in most cases unreasonable or unnecessary. Firstly, the EU should stay out of dictating how to develop software in general. Imagine being a dev in Japan and learning your game is illegal in the EU because of random ass laws, what will you do? Right, you'll just block them.For offline games, the thing is, they're already preserved in most cases, playable forever, for free. It's called a crack. Go legalize it for games you bought. Actually, the legality matters less in practice for games, but it would absolutely matter for other computer programs used for business, and it would be very good to protect gamers too, so this would already be super useful.Online games are services. Users are not meant to host their servers, and the server code was not meant for end users. Anything that forces devs to hand over backend code is out of this world insane. Again, we should empower people to reverse-engineer these games and develop and host their servers in peace if they want to. This is at least theoretically possible.tl;dr maybe we should give people more rights to play with ones and zeroes without getting jailed or sued first
>>725996321I guess this is more interesting to think about it for offline programs, but it is still very generic (and mostly not that important of a question for games). I would love to see less online DRM and more permanent irrevocable licenses without bullshit accounts and stuff.Anyway, the EU is too busy thinking about how to make everyone tie their real identities to their online accounts lest they post wrongthink.
>>725970585Plenty of shit games sell well. Undertale for example
>-600k subs on youtube>viewer base has reduced 70%>all his videos are people calling him "the meatcanyon guy">all his games are being review bombed on steam>literally turned the "i worked on blizzard" from being a sign of respect, to a fucking memeJesus Christ dude...
>>725976553All of that pales in comparison to the 8 million eceleb threads you fags need.
>>725997997Undertale is good DOE. Jason's game mainly exists to make him money at this point.
fucking clean it up janny
>>725970664There are no more whites on here.
>>725979804Chat control has nothing to do with SKG and is pushed by jews owning Palantir.
>>725976553It’s unironically the Dire Maul failure and it’s not even close. It’s fucking baffling that this shitty cunt just shows his whole narcissistic ass constantly, and potentially kneecapped SKG, but no one really turned against him until the hardcore WoW thing. People are pathetic.
>>725979804>yes goy owning your games is bad and doesn't matter because another unrelated law drafted by unaccountable unelected bureaucrats rapes your privacywhy are you jewish
