Is it worth it to play Fear and Hunger just for the story?
>Is it worth it to play vidya just for the story?No, you retarded zoomer, go read a book.
no the atmosphere is the real draw of that game. The story and lore is blatantly ripped from other IPs
>>744214904it's actually not since it's vague-drip-feeded trash a la Mitsubishi
>>744215747Which ones
Thats like saying play dark souls just for the story, how about the gameplay, did you try playing it for the gameplay? As many hours ive spent on souls games all I know is everyone dies anyways nothing matters have a good time
>>744215646games have better stories than books, simple as
this doesn't even look like a gameit looks like dogshit. play a real game, retarded storyfag
>>744216279I love vidya but this is miles from the truth so much so it’s borderline bait
The story of the game is pretty straightforward and simple, but it's absolutely worth checking for the lore. It probably has the most interesting vidya lore I have ever seen. And both the lore and gameplay are excellent at making the player feel genuinely powerless.
>F&H>story>lore>other retarded shitNo. I don't know how and why trannies hallucinated fanfiction tier shit they keep calling "lore", but jewtubers talking about this shit are pissing me off. F&H "lore" is an equivalent of a skitzobabble boomer tv show about hyperboreas, atlantidas, ayyylmaos and other shit like that where each new episode contradicts the previous one. It's interesting in its own right, but trannies just don't the point.Anyway, first game is only good if you're a masochist playing it blind and actually enjoying being raped by the game.
>>744216454this is what bookfags actually believe
>>744215964berserklovecraftsouls silent hill
>>744216494>each new episode contradicts the previous onename 1 contradiction
>>744214904Fear & Hunger is a just-watch-it-on-youtube core series
>>744216621Basically EVERYTHING you're told in the game is some unreliable bullshit. Oh, Old Gods created the world? Okay. Wait, in-universe not-africans actually believe Old Gods are some ayylmaos that came here only like 5 or 6 thousands years ago.Not-Jesus ascended to godhood through his own effort? Wait, that's not right, he is actually a literal fed architected by Sylvian (well, by her request). Or maybe it's both? Also here some jungian vagueposting to confuse you even more.Etc.
>>744215646>huuuur duurr boooksShut the fuck up zoomer.
>>744214904I hate to admit ,but I watched all lore videos about this game and really enjoyed it. Have no interest in actually playing rpg maker game though
bad gameplay and lore carried entirely by a good horror art-stylemany such cases
>>744214904atmosphere is really good and lore is pretty interesting so if you can stomach the intentionally agonizing trial and error gameplay, yes
>>744217208>character A believes things happened like this>character B believes something else happened>this is a plot contradiction according to this retard
>>744217484Cool aesthetics and atmosphere can carry a shit game really far.
>>744214904Yes. I beat it 6 times just for the story - every new exploration is a new piece of the puzzle, and the world of F&H as a whole is fascinating if you're into horror fantasy.
>>744214904Just for the story Funger no, Termina yes.
>>744217340You we yourself the experience, gameplay is really weird, battles feel more like puzzles than battles and RNG drops mean that you're basically tackling a puzzzle game with what the random gods give you but usually you're always able to make the puzzle click, it's bizarre how nobody talks about this but then I remember how fans only watch jewtube videos instead of playing their favourite games.
>>744218793wtf, the original is much better in every regard, story included - Termina is the quirk chungus cousin, what story? That Griffith spent 500 years doing nothing? That the Internet is le evil & must be defeated?Get that diluted shit outta here, it's puddle-deep mainstream bullshit, just because the author wanted a broader audience -__-
Wasn't there going to be a big Termina update? What happened with that?
>>744219018>world's biggest funger fan excited to play it for first time
>>744219018in that game the tutorial never ends - everything is a puzzle, it's what we talked about since day 1
>>744215646your brown
>>744219018I hate larpers too. This is the only game which I havent experienced first hand because It didnt look like the type of game I would enjoy playing
>>744217595You only ever get told what some retards believe happened, you can't build a neat narrative with just that. An attempt to build said narrative can only result in retarded fanfiction.In-universe even characters like New Gods know so little about what might actually happen in ancient times, some of them (Valteil) start doubting Old Gods ever existed at all.Hell, in Termina you're basically told in plain text any narrative the game presents to you is unreliable. What's the point of Pocketcat talking to you about how the stories people tell each other always change (Pocketcat's fairytale changes between the games to the point it's no longer the same fucking story) you fucking think? When you bring Nashrah's head into the museum he starts talking about very similar things too.
>>744219018>>744219140Every fucking time.>my favorite streamer told me it's a slow burn and deep ludokino experience!
>>744216301>posts slop>thinks anyone cares what he thinks in regards to how something lookskek
>>744216279games have worse stories than even movies 99% of the time it's the lowest form of tale telling
>>744216634Yep.I got the bait and playing it is miserable.
>>744219048this. people who like termina more are mentally ill.
>>744219215What's your point? I think there's no such thing as a "neat narrative" anywhere, it's all a matter of perspective - in F&H moreso, because the valiant, loyal, good-jearted knight from the first one is loyal to a genocidal maniac, and the bloodthirsty savage is actually fueled by righteous fury, the God of rape & murder actually makes place for new people to flourish etc. etc.Pocketcat is just an image, a veneer, the mask an agent of Rher puts on (moonscorch, remember?), so of-fuckin-course his fairytale changes with every iteration - it's not the same entity, just the next version, reborn by the descendant.
>>744214904Its retarded troonslop. Not worth to play for anything
>>744214904>RPGM trashI'd rather play a NWN module.
>>744219215first introduction to actual Roleplaying writing that's just not a storybook? oh fucking hell what's with you niggers pretending to play RPGs when you don't understand this is how actual tabletop RPG worlds are made to feel alive? (multiple "possibly true answers" that will be figured out eventually through play.)
>>744219536It's not for everybody, that's for sure - idk what happened to me but I played it for 300 hours until I got all the endings, something just clicked ... it was amazing to explore, learn, fight, flourish. I don't even like RPG maker shit, but F&H was something else.
>>744219178I came late to the party when the fandom was already filled with troons, gomenne.
>>744219215>You only ever get told what some retards believe happened, you can't build a neat narrative with just thatyes you can, having unreliable narrators is a basic trope for interesting storytelling.imagine that, there isn't just some retard to spoonfeed you everything that happened step-by-step, instead you have to piece things together yourself and sometimes the people telling you what happened have a bias or are lying.>some of them (Valteil) start doubting Old Gods ever existed at allValteil is a retard who spent his time fucking wax dolls instead of gaining actual knowledge like Nosramus. of course he would start thinking that instead of accepting his own failure.>Pocketcat's fairytale changes between the games to the point it's no longer the same fucking storyagain, imagine that, a folk tale evolving and changing over time
>>744216634>just-watch-it-on-youtube core seriesI disagree. Since there's a bunch of events based on your choices and where you explore, peoples runs are almost always different
>>744219860It's the school of thought of show don't tell.Create a world that works in a very precise way, but never tell the player outright, the player will FEEL that sense of narrative cohesion even if they have no way of actually put 2 and 2 togheter.
>>744219458games care more about presenting an interesting story than books, all books and bookfags care about is showing off your english degree
>>744216604Those all rip off something themselves. Media is a long string of rip offs.
>>744219959who cares about the fandom, play the game - the loud minority turns everything to shit, you take care of your own enjoyment :)Oh, and Rule #1 - don't feed the trolls. Only Moonless ;dd
>>744220037mythbuilding is something non-writers don't get.
>>744220067Yes, that was one of the most appealing parts - the feeling of getting good in a world that actively hates the player.
>>744220216you might like LonaRPG.
>>744220435LonaRPG is for rapists who are into loli.
>>744220435lonaRPG is fucking dogshit and this anon is baiting you into playing a bad game
>>744215646t. Trevor
>>744220560>>744220563both true and based opinions. however, LonaRPG is supported by those that want Taiwan to stay free from Chinkoid Cuckold Party's governance that hates cute things.
>>744220435I already have it, started some time ago (modded etc.), but I dont get this game - is it porn? Is it a game? I enjoy the atmosphere, even if the fighting is a bit wonky, but the whole thing is confusing ... hot tho ;dd
>>744220146I meant that after the loud minority gets into the game you either have a show of oldfagness to be taken seriously or you're always get lumped up with them and have your opinion discarded.I'm the kind of poorfag that waits for all games on discount so i'm always 2-3 years behind everything.
>>744214904I liked 1 and 2 both.I THINK I finished 1, I honestly can't recall if I did the little girl ascension or just watched it online.I did finish 2 as Marcoh (escaped I believe), tried a few other survivors but ended up stopping because I wanted to play as Tanaka.I think they are pretty miserable games though, while they are fun for a first experience afterwards it becomes really unfun, it's not like you're doing anything original and the harder difficulties really rely on you just sticking to certain setups.It's like a worse designed Underrail.Also holy shit is the fog fucking annoying, why did he think removing 20% of the available screen at all time is a good idea?
>>744220857its porn and game. (either struggle or enjoy loss.)
It's actually often more interesting to read non-fiction rather than fiction book. Seeing thoughts of random dead niggas is quite entertaining sometimes. And like 98% of fiction books are absolute unreadable dogshit, there is more unredeemably crappy books than there is shitty unplayable games. But for some reason when people start talking about books, it's ALWAYS about fiction.
>>744220880I don't mind doing this and don't excuse myself, the game should not be judged by novelty of how fresh it is to be a good game, if its good it gets played simple as.
>>744220773Who the fuck cares about the beef between mainland chinks and island chinks
>>744221189>spotted chink.not you clearly, you want to say you own Taiwan but even Japan and Taiwan cuck you together, US is a also banging Taiwan whilst you are left alone sad and cold. faggot.
>>744221145Considering Funger got popular 3 years after release, you're absolutely right - it's unique artstyle will persevere, unlike photorealism. I kinda like how it filters most people, the salt against it is a testament of how the unwashed masses are unable to learn the simples of game mechanics to progress ;dd I mean, cut off the arm so your enemy cant use the held weapon? What a bizarre idea ;dd
I think you guys are just dopamine friedJust stick to triple A
>>744222118super meatboy gets played even as a meme of "difficult game", spelunky is also another old one that gets recommended and playtime over the years.
>>744222230triple A is gay and boring. (only times its not it produces some bangers and then they get overdone by indies and cycle repeats.)
>>744222370Go pre-order gta6>But that's boring too :((((Then go do drugs or have sex
>>744222295Difficulty by itself is boring, I prefer a point to the struggle. It surprised me how I continued even without an XP bar ...
>>744214904EXCLUSIVELY for the story noLike the other anons said, it's given to you piecemeal to put together yourself, and you'd endure a great deal of CBT gameplay for scraps of dialogue, item descriptions, etc.However that COCK AND BALL TORTURE dungeon crawling gameplay is great if it tickles you the right way. F&H gets a lot of shit rightfully as Trial & Error, but that learning process is a great deal of fun if you avoiding cheat with Wikis or Youtube cheat guides unless really stuck.Take your time and enjoy yourself without rushing to "beat" it, and you'll have a good time and be surprised just how much you can improve on pure knowledge and experience alone. Your suicidal ideation will peak doing the later two S endings, but it's a good time
>>744222490GTA6 is for niggers, women, politicians and normalfaggots: not me.
>>744222230the game is literally designed to make you miserable. i think you're retarded.
>>744220857>modded etc.I'd very much recommend going vanilla (or purely visual mods) for your first playthrough.>is it porn? Is it a game? Gritty open world RPG with survival mechanics, nasty sex scenes, memes, and some memorable NPCs.But anon still has a point, making progress very much depends on player knowledge far more than on character stats.
>>744216494Blame fromtrannies, now vagueposting and some random lore tidsbits that you find on items and shit is considered worldbuilding and story.
>>744219536>playing it is miserable.isn't that the point?
>>744219860Did you use guides at all? I got the "basic" ending guideless, but the other playthrough I ended up lost and after looking at a guide, I never would have figured it out
>>744222964Just go play the new halo or the new assassin Creed
Does LoonaRPG also have good lore?
>>744223042the lore of the game is extremely coherent and has pretty much no vaguepostingthat anon is just a retard who can't infer that characters lie sometimes
>>744222786If you're not a normalfag then post your cunny games collection
Man, having your last torch run out, easy restart. Fuck.
>>744223310it is you who should fuck off to a gta6 thread
>>744223341Dev is a bit of a schizo, the lore reflects that quite accurately.
>>744223425did anyone here ever attempt to continue a run after losing both legs/being blinded? there must be at least one autist
>>744223485Buddy you don't like safe edgy indie games and that's okJust buy a snoystation and play some god of war
Trial and Error the game
>>744223425You can take wall torches in the mines. Actually you will keep running out of torches if won't do so. When playing the game first time I didn't know about it (playing on terror and starvation), so I eventually got softlocked when I reached Mahabre.
>>744223731>you don't like safe edgy indie gamesi have no idea what you're talking about nigger
>>744223869>>744222964
>>744222975Are there any weight gain and breast expansion mods? I might if there are any.
>>744214904No, the game is actual dogshit, just watch a video about it or read TV Tropes.
>>744223936>Adding breasts to lonaew
>>744223869I think the anon means games like Darkest Dungeon, Resident Evil, etc. Shit like that.
>>744223965I am not a fan of skeletons
>>744223918i love the game. i'm just saying that's the point the author was literally going for. both the story and gameplay are made to be depressing and miserable and the gameplay fucks you over constantly on purpose. but that's the point, it's good and interesting because of this
Anyway guys. Your wishes for the future update?
>>744224073I want to play the army guy
>>744216494It would like you think archeologists are all sctiphrenics then.
Why is Miro so slow and making updates? Adding to RPG maker shouldn't take 3 years
>>744214904No. Whatever flecks of narrative that trash has to offer would be a waste of your time. You should be reading something of substance like Crime and Punishment or The Great Gatsby.
>>744220136yeah but its pretty blatant in F&H.
>>744223936not as a gameplay mechanic, but there is a sprite swap that gives her the boobamight not work with the latest added outfit, but should be fine for the rest
>>744216604You forgot Zelda, Termina directly mentions how it borrowed from Majora's Mask. With Termina itself, the moon, and the 3 day countdown
>>744224260He said he lost progress to a fire or a harddrive crash or something and had to start over on the update, that was like a year or two ago
>>744224318Now that's more of a proper woman
>>744224556Hard-drive crash, 3 years ago
>>744224318Do I need to use a vpn to buy this game?
>>744225145Retarded game devs and not using proper source control, name a more iconic duo.
>>744225256You shouldn't need to unless you're Russian.
>>744214904No.
>>744214904Tranny game
>>744224006its the dark humor of those games that carry the game, but Resident Evil is "serious" that turned into "campy" because of how "serious" it took itself. Darkest Dungeon, Black Souls and others are more the "Grimdark" fantasy line you are thinking of.
>>744220136rip off would be a direct copy rather than a pastiche or a cliché based on a stereotype. (anyone who wrote Conan or Mythos stories other than Howard and Lovecraft for example were writing Pastiche based on those authors styles.) "Copy" would be 1:1 re-creation in literary terms.
>>744222709I feel like the Fear and Hunger ending should have been a propper ending slide instead of your legless body just chilling out for a minute before the screen goes black. My Imagination has a vision of Cahara resting against the body of a God as he slowly succumbs to a peaceful death.
Cute femcel
>>744224260Karin is a fat lard
>>744228362She's covered wars though
>>744214904the game becomes increasingly tedious once you reach mahabre, just watch the youtube lore nigga video
>>744216490>It probably has the most interesting vidya lore I have ever seenmaybe because it stole all of it from berserk and lovecraft
>>744229106"spun its own shit from berserk and lovecraft", great artists steal: bad artists moan.
>>744224556>lost progress to a fire or a harddrive crashthe amount of devs who used this excuse for indie games has reached the double dozen now, I'm not falling for it anymore
>>744225145>muh psyche muh schedule thanks for the thousands of bucks tho lmaoooeuropean devs in a nutshell
>>744229143first off, you stole that quote as well, second you didn't even quote it right, dumb tranny"good artists copy, great artists steal" and it means that taking what others have done and transforming it has more value than simply copying itfear and hunger literally copies everything about its lore, the only "original" thing it does is letting you give dead jesus a boner with the resurrect spell
>>744229106F&H lore has nothing to do with either, if anything Miro stole ideas from Jung for his world-building.
>>744228607She's such a hot and cute retard. Daan is so lucky...
Playable Girl mod progress update. Finished editing the corpse menus on level one through four, working on level five now. >>744214904Play the GAME for the GAMEplay. The story is a bonus. >>744220560I'm not a rapist.>>744224318>Giving Lona boobaBlasphemy. You already got Cecily if you want titcows. >>744223425The game has a special script that increases your chance of finding a torch when you run out so just keep checking pots and crates until you get one.
Are there any other games with the same tone as the first Fear and Hunger? Delving into an incredibly dark and hostile location and uncovering its secrets?
>>744229316>doesn't get the point, doubles down, reddit spaces, won't go back, keeps thinking 4chan is some canary mission's secret hangout.fuck off. this is not a jew-friendly board.
>>744214904The story is actually very easy to piece together once you have learned everything with a just a couple of loose ends and mysteries left. Atmosphere is very good in the first game.The problem is, to get everything, you need do multiple playthroughs and suffer through bullshit difficulty, annoying game design, shitty balance and obscure event triggers. A single mistake can cost you more than an hour of exploration and looting. I rage quit and came back three times before getting an ending, which I was only able to do because I received vague hints from these threads. If you got spoiled on the story and lore there is no point in playing.
>>744229750Darkest Dungeon maybe? I know there are at least two other games currently in development that are inspired by Fear and Hunger but I can't remember their names atm. One is Egyptian themed and the other is some rust world where everything rusts super fast. But they both have names that are weird and hard to remember.
>>744229750Fallout 1/2 sometimes feel very similar.>joins caravan>everyone gets slaughtered by horrific mutants, you flee with some loot from the dead bodiesBattle system and music in Fear and Hunger were quite obviously inspired by classical Fallout games. Vising The Glow and Master's lair felt similar to visiting some locations in F&H too.
>>744214904Yes, it is really one of the best written story is modern /v/.
>>744229953its not a horror survival game, its a puzzle/detective game. (once you realize this, you are mentally in the same space as the schizo developer.)
>>744230234I also was playing FF5 recently and noticed that the ancient ruins in the game feel VERY similar to some places in Ma'habre (mainly the temple district). You visit those briefly, but still.
>>744229750Exanima is the closest I've found. Horror tinged dark fantasy, and delving into a dungeon that reveals layers and layer of history as you go deeper. Gameplay is very difficult physics based combat with a steep learning curve, so if you want turn based, it's not that. Atmosphere is incredible though.
>>744224073>future updatenever evermiro took the bag and ran
>>744229106berserk and lovecraft are both dogshit and f&h took that dogshit material and elevated it to absolute kino
>>744230551take your pills nigga, how the fuck is it a puzzle game
>>744216634I mean if you are purely a storyfag then yeah just watch an LP, especially the no-commentary onesBut if you love turn based RPGs and adore the prospect of a horror + survival setting it sounds like a good thing to experience since this combo is quite rare
>>744231001every horror themed RPG maker game is just a puzzle game. (you have to do things in certain order and you have to complete puzzles to get to next part etc.)
>>744231001He's a retard that thinks he's being clever, and doesn't realize that puzzle-solving itself is implicit in the survival horror genre.
>>744231207you don't have to solve any puzzles to progress in f&h
>>744231560that's like saying you don't have to find every secret in Resident Evil to progress.
I have hundreds of hours in both games. Yes it's absolutely worth it, both are fucking amazing and I don't care what the retards on this board say
>>744229565Why is Daan x Karin so based?
>>744229750I second Darkest Dungeons
>>744214904NoJust watch a comprehensive, 5 hour video essay on itNow you've basically played the game, because there's nothing you need to do, really
>>744232963>t. tranny "fan"
>>744233127I don't even particularly like the gamesThey seem fine
That's the thing about cats...
>>744232782Tsun x sarcastic guy that doesn't give a fuck is a phenomenal paring
>>744230930
>>744230353Where's the incest porn?
>>744215780this fucking retard thinks adding -ru makes any words japanese
>>744240615Shutu the fuckuru
>>744216490>gameplay are excellent at making the player feel genuinely powerless.Until you gain knowledge of what to do then essentially you'll be the one raping the enemies and even thinking "oh wow the RNG was so good this run is basically a sleepwalk now"
WHERE*S THE PATCH LEBOWSKI
>>744241143the game replicated the path of ascension the new gods went through. you start out powerless, as you gain knowledge the game becomes easy. but then you reach the endgame areas that still have influence from old gods and you realize that no, you are still completely powerless in the grand scheme. sylvian/gro/double crow are hard as fuck no matter what build and party you have
>>744223228No guides (just general directions, as there is no map), and I meant without the S endings. Everything else makes sense - save the guy or find him dead, save the kid or not, escape prematurely ... there was another ending that I got, that I can't remember, but the basic ones are just logical :)
>>744232782karin x you is actually GOD's intended way doe
>>744223559I continued played Emki after getting raped by the guards and having both his legs cut off. This shit is genuinely impossible and mind numbingly boring. Only got as far as the caverns by running away from fights or blasting them with flame spells. Ended up dying to the 6 eyes wolf. Lord help the autist who has to go through all that hell and is blind on top
>>744224018I thought that was enki lmao
>>744224073I just want to play as Pav. I wanna know wtf happened to that guy to make him so paranoid by day 2?
>>744245730>dying to the 6 eyes wolf
>>744245818I didn't know you needed to give him rotten meat but not like it matters anyway. I'm not diehard enough to keep pushing any further
>>744240550Is the silhouette still the same if you get this ending as Olivia?
>>744229640>You already got Cecily if you want titcows.Cecily is busy entertaining crowds in the arena.
>>744216301sakura...
>>744216634Daily reminder Pyro's video on it has 8 million views, meanwhile the game as an all time peak of 1045 players. And considering how retarded and boring the game is, you can easily imagine how many cheated. Amongst "fans" of the game, 99.9% haven't played it, and 99.999% haven't beaten it without using a guide.
>>744229106>maybe because it stole all of it from berserk and lovecraftas opposed to stealing from tolkien? fear and hunger is a breath of fresh air.
