hello
>>733705057>it gets worse as you progress through the game /v really lacks the mental capacity to appreciate this game
>>733704230thats my favorite menu and i struggle to think of anything that looks like it that predates it. Maybe some obscure point and click adventure titles?
I loved this menu back when I bought the MGS4 PS3 bundle, glad more people will realize how amazing it is (despite knowing the ending)>https://youtu.be/8ATzz3AhyH4

>>733704105Home.
>>733706363holy sovl
>>733708132this one was bad cause they dont even have a relationship, you are just watching a woman slut herself
>>733706759To this day the comfiest menu I've ever seen
Pretty good actually
it was so good
>>733708532>>733706257>>733706731jpg slop
>>733708532this is bait
Stellar Blade has a great oneIt’s one of the ones where when you start a new game it begins a cutscene with the main menu as the start
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ai5WG1o_ArE
>>733706583A man of impeccable taste.
>>733708868i liked the main menu they did for Lost Legacy alot more, because it switches between day and night and also rains in real time.
>>733706759fuck i want to go back
>>733704105It's not even fucking consistent, they crapped out halfway through and didn't make the entire menu in the same diegetic style with the VHS errorsWhy do you people not just fucking write "let's talk about what we like or don't like in menus" instead of posting the most asinine bait? why don't the mods do anything about zero effort threads anymore
>>733704105Fuck me Ayyylmao Isolation is so damn good.I'm really worried AI:2 is going to suck dick.. they took too long and probably all of the passionate devs no longer work at CA or one of a hundred modern games things will ruin it.
https://youtu.be/833Do39pmfE
I don't think it's the greatest of all time but I do really like BL2s
>>733709148wut
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2aCQjWzMzN4
>>733709201There's no reason to have any hope for it. The first turned out as it did by grace of a few people in spite of greater CA and they are almost certainly all gone after the shitshow that SEGA saddled CA with.
>>733708538>retard doesn't know the difference between Title screen and Main menu
>>733709627That's not what you were being called retarded for. You ARE pretending, right?
>>733704105*blocks your path*https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0C0Ubkfo8m8
>>733704105I like the one from The Last Story because it also changes depending on where you are in the story and it zooms in
>>733708449>obligatory>no other way(You)
>>733708331>>733708538>>733709627I'm gonna spell this out for anyone reading. Posters here are doing a websearch for the game they have in mind and grabbing whatever decent image they find. That's liable to be Start screen capture. But here's the important part: When you press start, the "Press start" text is replaced by the menu text over the same image. So there's no functional difference between a capture of the Start screen and Main Menu to anyone other than a tremendous boy-molesting fruit.
>>733709747That is absolutely incredible.
>>733708561RIDING HOOOOOOOOOOOME
>>733709827Even more important than that is that what is being called "main menu" here is the experience you land on when starting up the game. That includes the title screen.
>>733708561I like ARR's better. Classic FF. I was very glad to change it back.
>>733709827>When you press start, the "Press start" text is replaced by the menu text over the same image.plenty of games don't do this and in fact change it up. I'd argue MOST change it, at least nowadays. Which means they're objectively and obviously different, and it's not a matter of nuance or subtlety. Which makes YOU the lala homo man.
Oh no. He isn't pretending.
>>733708449>"What is a story?"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rpkk2btF38A
>>733709794>lol just turn off the game we sold you and you can *w*i*n*!!!!!!!!
>no mention of Metroid Primewhat the actual fuckhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WLLE_PvJ5mY&list=RDWLLE_PvJ5mY
>>733706129I like Exodus but I miss the Metro environment, the big open levels wear thin for me on replays.
>>733704105It is a great menu. The game looked horrible, so I didn't play.
>>733710190wut
>>733707254i can't believe the series devolved into what it is now. what a fucking joke. i want my grim dark everything is fucked fantasy back
None of these are iconic start menus, except maybe >>733706759 and >>733708643
>bango starts playing
>>733709747wish I liked this game, i ended up uninstalling at the first real enemy encounter
Probably the only good part of this game.I like watching the terrorists kill all the civilians and then the civilians kill the terrorists and then repeat
>>733710070>thinks it's about winningif you didn't like the game, you could have returned it at any time. But you kept playing? Yeah? Why?
>>733710339>jgod fucking damn it
>>733708868I like the TLOU2 one too. It's not as iconic as the window, but it's minimalist and vaguely ominous. It's just the sound of waves instead of music.You eventually find that boat near the end of the game. The more positive screen shows once you beat it and suggests abby+lev found the fireflies
>>733710498I won by never buying or pirating the purposefully shit game.
>>733709747
>>733710498>you could have returned it at any timeDevs would have been based if they actually offered refundsInstead they chose to be chucklefucks
And the best part is you can customize it with your own park in Open RCT2

>>733706363>>733706851shameless ripoff
>>733704713>>733704105Aliens Fireteam Elite's main menu is better imho. (HUD turned off)

Yes, yes Isolation GUI is unmatched to this day but the more important question is and always will be: "Why don't you ask me about Sevastopol's safety procedures?"
>>733709747>>733710638Holy shit is the game good?

>>733712858GOLDEN NIGGAS
>>733704105For me is also one of the best games of the history if not the best
>>733712939PISS niggas
>>733712821It's a stealth puzzle game, I'll say that upfront. It's not great but not awful.
>>733712885Tiberian Sun had atmosphere at every conceivable moment
>>733712283It sounds good, but the lyrics... questioning gun violence in a shooter game?
>>733709576Oh that's right they had CA developing Hyenas. That would have been the moment when every last passionate dev handed in their resignation.
>>733712990oh I know this, the megastructure game that's a bonus.
>>733705057>>733705745Why can't we have something like this instead of minimalist slop again?
>>733708132KINO
>>733710567>>liking anything about TLOU2Kill yourself immediately.
This menu gives me feels every time.
They whole menu background feels like a window in a game. You could wait a few minutes and see a jeep drive by or a helicopter fly in the distance. There were several different of these main menu screens. They don't make them like this anymore.
>>733713062I forgot to mention another neat design, the diegetic HUD. Give it a go if stealth is your thing and any of this sounds cool
>>733712283I literally only bought this game for the nude mods ages ago lol.
OP is such a wrong faggot it's not even funny. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FJlz2kAo0bM
https://youtu.be/hVpbFCNuo90
>>733705057An underappreciated part of an overappreciated game.
Alien isolation? Doesn't even come close.
https://youtu.be/po24kZMsy7U?si=p6C_9QTIoemHuEnd
It's a bit generic fantasy but I always liked how nice the first King's Bounty's title menu looked.
>>733714068i wanted to like this game so much but i really hate how you cannot get back most units, like you get a cool dragon, then it dies and you can't get it again
/v/ is showing its age holy shithttps://youtu.be/ZT9DST_M_g8?si=qMkyzHVbBxa8VKcE
>>733707914It used to be a /v/ must play. Shows how badly downhill the board has gone.
>no x-wing or tie fighterI know it's not /vr/, but come on
WC3 TFT is a strong contender
>>733714138You can definitely get back "most" units, but picking your creatures based on their availability is always part of the decision process in those games. You want to put together something you can replenish and preferably keep from dying too.The sequels other than Dark Side are mostly better anyway, although there's less soul in the main menus, just characters pasted on an in-game shot.
>>733714325I have never seen it not mocked and I think I was on /v/ before its release.
>>733708449>"dude if I was in the game I would have won and everything WITHOUT killing a single person. Yeah.">woah, sick broYou are the exact retard that needed to learn their lesson but didn't.

>>733714920Fucking legend.
>>733714887Nope.
>>733715159Yep.
For me? RoR1.The soundtrack for that menu (let alone the game) is god tier as well.
>>733706363>>733706851I have the faintest memory of a game that really resembled these title screens, and on the right side I could click into a blacksmith and it'd open a window to the right side with art of a dark room lit by the furnace, then I could click into buttons to do... something, probably upgrades. A game from the mid 90s onwards, the demo ran on a Pentium 100 and 16MB of RAM, I can't fucking remember which CD magazine that demo was from and it's been driving me nuts for years.
there it is dude
Not best, but soulful.We need to bring back thematic buttons.
>>733706279>>733706257FNAF has always been furfag garbage for zoomer retards
>>733709747>>733713478>>733713656Tastefully done.
>>733712283this was one of the first games I bought on Steam. 20 years ago. I completely forgot about this song too. Fuck, take me back.
>>733713478f4mi did a great video about this recently
>>733716458literally who
>>733715476Rage of Mages maybe?
>>733714796I can see why no one posted that.
>>733714596>>733714138>>733714068Fuck I'm going to play this again. Been over a decade.

>>733717143That was what we call a rhetorical question, dumdum.
>>733717206the answer wasn't for you
>>733708561I can hear this webm.
>>733714068>>733716805Might have to finish Armored Princess with the expansion. I can't fucking remember if I completed it or not, it was way harder than Legend.
>>733717389Yes, that is how a rhetorical question works. But you got the wrong answer.

>>733715008>sotlsoul*
>>733714796>
>>733706503It's Alien Isolation
>>733709454This right here, and they're in-game areas too so it's a quick way to check out graphic settings and shaders.
>>733713062Echo has clear artistic vision and inspirations unfortunately it's repetitive and bloated, it's 4-5 hours and that at least 2 hours too long. The ending's half-baked and speaks of troubled development but i love the intro, it's 45 minutes of slow walk and dialogue except it's an actually fascinating lore dump and waking up the alien structure (before and after included) is cinematic. Big artsy balls are needed to take a game intro that slow for the sake of atmosphere. I'll never forget this piece of imagination but i don't want to play Echo. Mention to the diegetic HUD, it's cool.Very reminiscent of Blame or Magnetic Rose, Echo ought to be a mainstay in those megastructure threads.
>>733718867I don't have much positive to say about BL2, but this was a really nice convenience.
>>733715476I have been in the exact same position for several years as well but with a different game.It was a demo I played in the 90’s I remember that it was an RTS with a menu much like the HOMM and AOE ones. The game was isometric with amazing sprite work including flame effects, one of the loading screens had a church that look pretty gothic, there was different hero characters with various cool abilities one of which was a dwarf, another I think was an elven sorceress, the game had an overall gothic feel with Viking elements.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=23fdEoVn-BAIt doesn't get any better than this.What the video doesn't show is that selecting the different menu options will fly around to different areas, with the various selections integrated into the environment.
>>733712874man, borderlands 3 wasn't very good, but the music is kino
You'll have to imagine Rimworld menu because I couldn't find the right pic and I'm on the wrong computer
>>733714271Classic Video Game zinger So iconic that many have people have used it like when RSJGaMeRPrO made it his channels new intro.
>>733706759I can hear the menu rattling downwards
>>733705745It's cheaper to reuse a basic text over background main menu than it is to design a bespoke one for every game.These menus are "poor practice" if you look at games purely as a product.
>>733706257Was this made with renpy?
>>733719786meant for >>733713129
>>733719650>sees this image for 5 minutes at a time as the game loads up all the mods>then has to do it all over again because you wanted to enable one more mod
outer worlds 2's menu is a dialogue tree where you talk to a sort of puppet of the moon man mascot from the game and I thought that was fun by modern standards
>>733719650I like the Anomaly chick
>>733709520Story made no sense but the music was fucking peak.
>>733708863MY MAN
>>733704105>Main menu updates/changes depending on how far you are in the game>unique scene when you beat the gameYou really cant compete with this
>>733704105The alien is the least fun part of this, it's just annoying not at all scary. The robots and human enemies obviously aren't scary either so all you really have here is an action game with dark lighting.
>>733720439Anon... it's just cameras placed on levels... Quake 3 and Unreal Tournament did it all the time...
>>733720726Just because it's simple doesn't stop it being good.
You just know an adventure is waiting.
>>733721356Do you really like the new one? I know the original art wasn't great, but I thought swapping the mysterious adra stones unique to the setting for a generic snowy mountain was a bit of a downgrade.
>>733704105https://youtu.be/pnkBYueC604?si=-JXD2XhlDxJ8O4sM
>>733706731My favorite part is that I keep seeing that fucking image around. I'm not sure if it's because it was originally a stock image or because it somehow became the platonic ideal of "serious looking medieval soldier" and has spread because of that.
>>733721946I always thought this bitch was Chloe Moretz.
>>733721908Better versionhttps://youtu.be/zg-dAVSzXMM?si=0uUvtlwLaFIqD3I-
>>733710469Too kino for /v/
>>733721786The original is more stylistic, you're right.
>>733707914Are you seriously pretending that there were people that "missed" that? Are you seriously going to pretend that you're intelligent for noticing something that's so crimnally obvious that even a blind fucker could spot it?
