>Anon talk of into the breach>Remember how ill never be able to unlock the secret squad because I basically need to 100% the game and all the challenges I have left are either rng based or just plain awful to getWhy did they had to make it cost 25 god damn coin, this suck so much, otherwise its a fine game imo
>>492384489You didn't miss much, secret squad is one of the worst in the game
Did someone say tactics?
>>492303871>are you having funif misery, suffering and frustration are fun then I'm having a blast
What's the technical term for the fuzziness/noise in a lot of Unreal Engine 4 games? It's more noticeable in areas with bright light sources, but you can kind of see it everywhere. It resembles something like the artifacts from DLSS upscaling maybe. I'm playing Beyond Hanwell in early access because I liked the demo, atmosphere's still fantastic though UE4's look triggers my autism
>>492386981It's TAA, which is required because Epic's lighting engine causes flickering light glares otherwise
>>492386920Play I want to be the guy next or Knytt Stories :D
>>492386920>>492387220the most fun I ever had with a platformer is when its cock and ball torturing me. Some of those Knytt levels demand pixel perfect jumps to progress and it'll give you 1 or 2 new areas to explore before having to do another pixel perfect jump. It's great. Just put on a podcast and do the same jump over and over and over again until you do it perfectly then the amount of dopamine that drops from spending a week stuck on a jump fills your brain, only for it to be crushed by another one of those jumps. I love it.Pic related, this is what I got for doing 3 or 4 pixel perfect jumps in a row.
>>492387220Aren't these "just" challenging platformers? The pain in LM comes from the puzzle aspect and cryptic progress gating, that also involves a lot of far-fetched experimenting and time-wasting tedium when you have no idea how to progress. And when you finally find a thing, feel like a genius, and it turns out to be yet another dead-end, so you feel like a retard again.
>>492386981How does it compare to nu-RE? How janky is the combat? Does it feel like a classic survival horror?
>>492388198Have you thought of looking at a guide?
>>492387576But also heard good things about 1001 Spikes in that style, so I might check that one out eventually. (similar Indiana Jones rip-off vibes and Jon Blow loves it)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwBl7Rnkt78>>492388595That would be even less fun, the satisfaction you get when you do finally find a solution on your own after experiencing frustration for a while is why I play this type of game.Even more than a platformer or a puzzle game it's a secret-hunting game, it's inherently autistic but spoiling secrets just defeats the purpose.
Brat taming simulator?
>>492389487>That would be even less fun, the satisfaction you get when you do finally find a solution on your own after experiencing frustration for a while is why I play this type of game.>Even more than a platformer or a puzzle game it's a secret-hunting game, it's inherently autistic but spoiling secrets just defeats the purpose.Yeah but it wastes a lot of time...
>>492387186I see>>492388498Still too early in to say, but I think the combat is janky yet satisfying--similar to how I felt about The Chant (underrated game). Apparently it's a solo dev effort, I'll take it over yet another first-person hide and seek indie horror game
In Nine Sols, is there supposed to be a robot that gives you a map for every zone? I already cleared some of them without getting one.
>>492395390yep
>>492389487>But also heard good things about 1001 Spikes in that style, so I might check that one out eventually. (similar Indiana Jones rip-off vibes and Jon Blow loves it)Pass, but that was an interesting watch.

>>492403501...if you boast that you're inclusive, is it really genuine? The impression I get is that they'll make their business look like a bunch of M&Ms but always listen to the same ones.>>492404961>Industries of Titan>SHITWell. Fuck...

>>492360163which werewolf we talking about exactly?if it's the one in the forest (can't quite remember the story, something about a women thinking her man is cheating, but turns out he's just a werwolf or something) then I think by that point you're not supposed to have any of the fancy gear yet, as far as I remember
>>492407714There are several werewolves?But yeah, I don't have the damage to kill him. Ended up cheating and checking a guide, and apparently you're meant to be extremely aggressive and kill it, otherwise its regeneration kicks in.
Yooka Laylee 100% completed. Took a bit over 15 hours. It wasn't very good.
>>492408517That's a shame, I really liked the Banjo Kazooie nostalgia.
Call of Sentinels. Anyone here gave it a shot? Maybe too many games are releasing for /4chan/ to keep up with. Considering this general doesn't even mention brotato
>>492411610probably because brotato sucks and is a game with a 2013 youtuber aesthetic
>>492407835From what I recall the balancing is just all over the damn place in that game
>>492404993Meh you say that but if I think a game is disrespecting my time I'm just gonna look up a guide to go through it.
>>492411826What's better than Brotato? It's a very well done game within its own aspects. It also has multiplayer making it quite more remarkable than the initial salespitch. As for its aesthetic, quite a majority of the isaac flash advocates seem quite drawn to it. If all your critique of the game boils down to how it looks that's not enough.
>>492412180nta, but I'm not really into bullet hells, I did watch Uber Danger playthrough brotato though, looks like an absolute meme.
>>492412462That's fine. I just wanted some conversation.
>>492388198I finished Both LM1 and 2 blindLM1 took 230 hours across 3 months with long periods of just not playing and drawing doodles at work while thinking about it.LM2 took 98 hours and while it's overall easier I HAD to ask ONE question to my /v/ bros because I was completely stuck with nothing else to do and that was the right choice because there was a translation issue with a specific puzzle.
>>492412868I must be 100 hours into it already and not sure if even halfway through but I'm dreaming about it every night (just nonsensically jumping at and walking through every wall kek)
Hey /indie/, is it okay to ask for recommendations here? I feel like in the last few years I can hardly find anything I like—not in a nostalgic sense like people on /vr/, because the same applies to older games I would have loved if I had played them in my teens.Some of my favourite games, in no particular order:Super Mario Bros 3Cave StorySystem ShockDeus ExKnytt UndergroundRatchet & Clank 1Demon's SoulsShadow of the ColossusCyber ShadowRayman OriginsI would like something slightly on the shorter side. Last years I sunk more than 100 hours into The Binding of Isaac, and I can hardly think of a worse waste of time in my recent memory.I'm going to start Disco Elysium soon, which I expect to like based on what I have seen, but I cannot think of much beyond that.
>Giga wrecker at -94%>Made by game freakWould you buy that for a dollar?
>>492417119Yes. It's not worth paying full price, but it's good enough to buy during a sale.

Pico Park 2!
long shot but, i remember some twitter dev posting about a wizard game a few years ago and it gaining a bit of hype because it had an original in depth system for wizard spellcasting, that's literally all i remember about it, i dont know if ever got completed and released, just that the twitter page used to get reposted on /v/ in indie hype threads, does that ring a bell to anyone
>>492420979What did it look like? 3D, 2D, grid based rpg. Any detail would help.
>>492421306it was probably first person fixed screens like an old dungeon crawler or real time, not sureit wasn't 2D sidescroll like noita

>>492423506They just made it badass, even for those not buying the DLC.
>>492426626>nazi badthats true althougheverbeit
>>492426742The year is 2024 and devs are still tying animation/speed stuff to framerate...
>>492427695The best part is that before this update it wasn't tied to FPS like this. It's a truly incredible shitshow, affecting the whole game and not just the DLC.
Should I play cdda Bright Nights? Does it have the electrical grid features? In the regular fork version, I take like 30 minutes just setting up my pockets. A simpler version would be nice

>>492431136anubis riddledon't know if it's been fixed, I played it at release
How do you respec perk points on Tactical Breach Wizard? I press the fucking buttons and it does nothing.
>>492434151right click on the perk you want to cancel should work, as long as you have the respec points
>>492404796Remind me of that us politician who claim she is part native for clout, the reality being she maybe has one grand grand grand grand parent who was.
>>492435184I like that I know you're talking exactly about Pocahontas here.
>Starcom: Unknown SpaceIts allright I guess, it scratch my exploration desire well enough, at least better than Starsector where its mostly just prospection for late game colony building, but I'll admit the game seem very easy as on normal I can easily handle enemies outnumbering me 10 to 1. Maybe ill up the difficulty later.
>>492428390If you're wondering why they changed that, it's because gearbox devs are literally fucking retarded. Gearbox has several filters in place to make sure that only absolute fucking idiots end up working there. This is not the first time that this specific issue happened, it's part of their "optimization" process. Did you know that gearbox test machines are all running the same hardware? Their failure is by design, from top to bottom, full of idiots.

This ror2 controversy reminds me of motion twin fucking over evil empire (their former colleagues) for potential short term profit and to spite them for not being anarchist.
>>492437784im still mad they just shuttered dead cells like that
>>492438027I hope it isn't, I hate random stuff just laying here to look cool.
>>492437784>motion twin fucking over evil empire (their former colleagues) for potential short term profit and to spite them for not being anarchist.literally what the fuck are you even TRYING to talk about? evil empire aren't their former colleagues, they were a brand new studio created out of whole cloth by motion twin specifically to handle updating dead cells for them so they could do other things, and in that, they weren't created as an anarchist-syndicalist company by the anarchist-syndicalist french schizos at motion twin, so why the fuck would they spite them "for not being anarchist"? and more to the point how the flying crystal blue methamphetamine-induced hallucinational FUCK exactly is it that you think motion twin fucked over evil empire?
>>492439159Evil Empire were literally former devs of the game that left Motion Twin and founded their own studio under a defacto agreement that they would keep working on Dead Cells until 2025. Motion Twin was extremely spiteful of Evil Empire's perceived ideological betrayal. In fact, they still have a lawsuit going over descrimination based on handicap that involves both Evil Empire and Motion Twin. There is a lot more details to the story but they don't really matter.Source: Sébastien Benard, former Motion Twin employee and designer of Dead Cells. Former employee testimonies. Public record of French Labour court.
>>492439159>and more to the point how the flying crystal blue methamphetamine-induced hallucinational FUCK exactly is it that you think motion twin fucked over evil empire?NTA but there's a bit of a drama going on. Basically EE wanted to do more Dead Cells content, but MT told them to wrap it up with The End is Near so MT next project won't be overshadowed by dead cells. Deepnight (founding member of MT) also called them out for treating EE like shit. Also there is pic related.
>>492441878huh, i don't remember seeing evil empire blurred out in the credits, all i remember about the credits in dead cells currently is that it's an endlessly looping randomly generated meme where the small pool of names keep getting assigned to random and often completely made up positions forever until you hold b to skip it
>>492441798>>492441878>less than 40 seconds apartthe most obvious samefagging i've ever seen
>>492442387It's not the game credits, it's the animated show's ones
>>492442469
>>492441878By the way, pic related is literally illegal in france. Messing with moral rights is both extremely petty and dangerous.
>>492442470>there's a dead cells cartoonwell there's something i never expected to happen back when i bought the game in early accesswhat's next, a silksong amazon live action series?
played Krypta FM, a walking sim where you explore a small village in Poland looking for cryptids with your flashlight and camera and post on an early '00 paranormal forumit's...fine? nothing really interesting happens except for pic and some spooky shit at the endthe twist is there's no cryptid, it was a starved dogcue to a happy montage of the forum goers being best buddies, included your pink-haired "RAWR!!1!" emo teenage gf
>>492445561Smiling dog :D
>>492426626Act 4 is even worse

We need more little girl representation in our indie games.
>>492458317"Fruff" is a terrible onomatopoeia for a dog noise
I'll be the first to admit I wasn't expecting the chinese furry game to get any major updates but they continue to surprise me
>>492462253which one is "the" chinese furry game
>>492463216I've just realized how vague "chine furry game" is now, my mistake. I meant anomaly collapse
>>492459996Fruff sounds like the dog did a half-assed bark. Like he was barking and his owner told him to shut the fuck up and the dog impulsively barks but remembers his owner doesn't want him to bark and reigns himself in and a half-assed bark came out as a result.
>that mission when the game first spams armored priests at youI fucking knew that skill that refunds mana when Zan's clone dies is basically cheating, I don't know how can you beat that shit doing every confidence task on first try otherwise
>>492468959Act 4 bonus goals are basically impossible on the first runaround unless you replay and respec
>>492470695Thats gayAlthough I saw posts claiming they've did every goal with no replaysWhich I guess is even more gay because they've lucked into the right perks which are NOT created equalLike, I like forced entry conceptually yet I can see that it would bee completely useless if I took itAoE time bomb too, my guys are almost never grouped even for a moment for it to be viable (although Zan's perks are generally better than the other niggas)
You now remember Starbound was a thing.
>>492471756>lucked into the right perksI don't believe so. I've seen enough retards seeking out full walkthroughs before even starting a new game.
>>492472072I know.
Northern Journey is weird. The stages and environment all look fantastic but the models are the ugliest shit I've ever seen.
is selaco any good? it looks curious but im so tired of everything being stuck in eternal access these days
>>492474427Would also like to know.
>>492428390To be fair. Stuff like that works well for most 2d pixel art games like ror1. Seems like they just failed to consider this with the move to 3d.
>>492476046my question is why do it what was the problem with the game that they needed to do this now, so long after launch and one successful DLC?
>>492377792Eh, it's done everything it can; there's nothing left to add.
>>492386026webm unrelated
>>492403501I told myself I was gonna ignore all the optional shit and just rush to the end, but now I'm not sure if I even do that.Fuck it, more like Tactical Breach Dropped. Play Depth of Extinction instead.
Rain World CHADS....we got something related to the incoming DLC!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NeS_GJAiX4https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SeTEDZcIL80>September 19th
>>492478425This doesn't sound like a windchime at all...

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1919100/Lulus_Temple/Playing this right now and it's pretty fun.
Do you guys know any Steam games like Spyro?Closest I've found is funnily enough a game called "Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom".- The levels are laid out in a very open world fashion, all very distinct in their aesthetics too- Each level has collectables and "stars" from mario essentially- There's also minigames to obtain these stars- And of course a bunch of movement mechanics to master- What makes Yellow Taxi Goes Vroom the most like spyro though is the button you hold to accelerate, just like the charge button in Spyro which you basically hold all the time. Spyro's a god damn car.I suspect that last point might only be be found in this Taxi game and Spyro though.
>>492472835It might be ass but damn if it doesn't scratch that autistic building sandbox itch way better than Terraria does at least when modded
>>492472835I tried Terraria but had no idea what to do after a while, went exploring and just repeatedly died from random bosses. Seems like a game where you need a guide. Is Starbound any better?
>>492487671starbound is highly linear with all major progression gated by static instance story missions as opposed to terraria's discoverable bosses, so yeah, it might be more up your alley
so? how's that rain world modded region
>>492452195What the fuck is that childish writing? This sounds like a repressed teenager finally getting to say "fuck" for the first time and thinking it's just so adult and cool.
Jesus fucking christ this game has an atrocious onboarding curve. If it's not rival clans completely clearing out the starter areas and quests and leaving you with nothing, it's getting infected with the zombie virus with zero indication of how to cure it, your town getting zerg-rushed by multiple level 6 bosses at level 1, getting boxed in by mapgen, or all of your NPCs starting out permanently petrified and unable to do anything.Depths of Peril had its jank but god damn man.
>>492495780I remember trying it, and getting brutally filtered out. Zombasite might be even worse than Space Ranger or Drox Operative.
The escapist is on sale at a stupidly low price right now. The entire franchise is worth the current price, the dlc are also worth the extra price simply due to how unique each are. The spinoffs are not very good but for the price, I'd say they're worth it. Escapist and escapist walking dead are single player, survivalist are singleplayer and online co-op, escapist 2 has solo, online and couch co-op (remote play compatible).Check the bundle prices before buying the complete edition for 2, for some reason the bundle appear twice but one is double the price.The bundles for multiple games are also more expensive than buying them separately for some reason.Survalist and walking dead dlc are not worth buying.This week has been very good when it comes to sales. Kingdom come deliverance is also on sale for an extremely low price.If you're more of a five finger discount type, just get escapist 2 goty since this one has remote play, so you won't have to deal with parsec's shitty controller support.
>>492495780>>492496271I actually own the demo to the game cause it was free on gog, guess I'll download it now and try it out.
>>492372768>sjw anons that came in a couple threads ago to shit on Soulash 1 and Soulash 2 cause the dude refused to put gayness into the game.>It gets massively upvoted and bought on steamlmfao, these freaks are losing on all sides.
>>492498153>Kingdom Come DeliveranceWhile I did play a lot, I never got the grasp of the combat that well, still somehow managed to finish the game.
>>492503347The funny thing is it isn't even a conservative backlash, its a normie backlash, people are just tired of their shit.
>>492503443The game has a lot more complexity than it has depth but at least you can play without understanding most of it.>>492503347>>492503571Take your fucking controversy somewhere else.
>>492503347based and triggered the tranny
>>492485538never played Spyro, but that reminds me of A Hate in Time, the levels are open, more like in Mario 64, with stuff to collect I think, its been a long time and plataformers are not exactly my cup of tea.
>>492503571It's mostly a right wing backlash. No one mainstream talks about it. It's an extremely niche game and all coverage talks about culture war, which isn't a mainstream topic.
>>492485538What you're asking is a collectathon.
>>492504301Nha it isnt righgTwing or of any political spectrum, its just peoples are tired of corrupt twats citing moral bullshit to allow themselves an higher-than-thou attitude toward criticism, which is 9 times out of 10 entirely justified.
>>492504301Yes, of course, everyone who disagree with you has to be [insert American political current here].It's not like America is just one country in the entire world and everyone is getting really pissed off at how burgers are trying to shove their own socio-political issues into everyone else's mouths.
>>492504784The only coverage is in right wing newsites, only fairly right wing youtubers cover it, the forums are filled with right wingers, the only people defending it on the subreddit are also posting on r/Conservative, most of the new reviews have less than 1 hour in game and are openly political (both in favour or against). It's a very clear left-wing vs right-wing debate.
>>492485538Just in terms of retro inspired 3D platformers, Pseudoregalia and Corn Kidz are great. Not a ton like Spyro though.
>>492505204I'm not american, I did study world politics in a german university, my main professor was a former afd MP, so I'd say my education didn't exactly have a left-wing bias. I don't understand why you're trying to hide something so banal.
>>492506443>i'm not american but everyone who disagree with me is right wingOkay American.
>>492459534I wish the loli posters on /v/ didn't spend so much time shilling games that suck. There are plenty of good games with loli protagonists but now there's a running joke about celebrating absolute kusoge lolige.

>>492504784>>492505204I also forgot to mention that he decided to ban the original requester for no clear reason well after the request. But since he didn't explain his reasoning behind banning that person specifically, I'm not sure what to make of it.

Thousands of people join his stance against oppression as the situation continues to reach more press and influencers.And post it 3 times on the roguelike subreddit over several days.

>>492504301>It's mostly a right wing backlash.Keep pushing and the entire world will appear far right.
sleep tight mr. the propane
>>492512258But I say so, so it must be right because I'm always right!
>>492512258Going out of your way to buy a game to support the dev's stance on gay marriage is a fairly political thing, yes.
>>49251287496% of white Americans are against gay marriage, 78% thinks faggotry should be illegal, 34% thinks faggot should be killed. You're the minority faggot.15 years ago Trump would have been seen as center left. Your camp calls a peaceful protest an insurection. But when you riot, rape and kill thousands in a white genocide it's fierced but mostly peaceful? Fuck off tranny. The average white is sick of your pedo shit.
>>492514012lmao those numbers sure are real
>>492514012>Product has something that I don't approve of>I will warn others that this product has something they may also disapprove of>I will try to find an alternative and not buy that productThat's capitalism at work. I don't see anything wrong with that.
>dev make medieval-fantasy game>adds a lineage system>faggots SEETHING that they can't have gay marriage, in a medieval game about having kidsFags proving they live in a fantasy lan/d/ where men can get pregnant.
I can't imagine being so angry all the time. It sounds so exhausting.
>it's not a problem
>>492514384>Moving the goalpostFine I will answer. Those numbers are from dr. Arthur Sturmmann on stormfront. It's adjusted to not have a leftist bias since republicans are intentionally left out of polls.>I still don't trust your numbersYou would rather trust billionaires owned companies (who are mostly Jewish if I may add) over a true science prodigy and doctor in philosophy? Be my guest but we're done here.
>>492515659>Source: A nazi made it the fuck up on a white supremacist website
>>492515796>Everyone I disagree with is a nazi
some comfy mining for friday night
>>492515936Stormfront is a neo-nazi website. Sturmmann was a nazi military rank.
>>492509892>Being a child molester and a deviant is not a personality.>allowing child marriage in your game to black the homos should be applauded
>>492515659>stormfrontOkay now you're just taking the piss.
>>492515659Literally impossible to distinguish between satire, glowies, and actual poltards nowadays.
>>492516219Who are you quoting?
>>492516021and this is my projectile hell final wave, and yes, I suck. Should just have used the laser.
>>492516059>>492516282Stormfront is the last bastion of free speech left in our society. Of course it's going to have some radical. They're oppressed by you "tolerant" intolerance. Even 4chan is censored by trannies nowadays. Where else can we go? X is full of sexual deviants, Reddit is used as a propaganda tool by the left, you are pushing us to the darker corners of the internet. I dare you to go outside right now and ask a white non-basedboy what's his stance on gay marriage and look for the signs of disgust. It's obvious how much the average person hates gayness but the still feel compelled to bend the knee to your caprice.
>>492517115>non-basedboyI can read your southern accent.
first tried ascension 20 who do you think you are i am
>>492517396>who do you think you are i amYou look a bit tired anon.
>>492517586i am after this retarded fucking climb. i hate deckbuilders
>>492512874Buying games isn't political, its also a middle finger to people due to any number of reasons, it could be that they are apolitical but like the game and don't want to see it ratio'd via left wing activism. The moment you start putting caveats on buying games as "political" you've already lost the majority. You're the problem, the people buying the game aren't. If it doesn't cater to you go play AAA they love what you love right now.
>>492516415It's pretty obvious that's we're being raided. Nobody complained about any gay post in months but suddenly we have weirdos coming here over to talk about politics and how much they hate people living rentfree in their head.
>>492514604>>I will warn others that this product has something they may also disapprove of>>I will try to find an alternative and not buy that productDoxxing people and starting a minor harassment campaign and political smear job of someone who just said "no" to you isn't "warning people" its borderline terroristic political coercion. You act this way because you are weak and you are losing the majority and by continually pushing it you'll become politically toxic to touch for a least a couple of decades.
>>492517786>Months>Literally 2 threads ago someone came in and brought this up like it is /v/You're really bad at this...
>>492517664You can act for political reasons. Sitting on a bus is not inherently political, yet Rosa Parks' action were political. Buying a game isn't political, buying a game because the creator is against gay marriage is a political action.
>>492518084>Buying a game isn't political, buying a game because the creator is against gay marriage is a political action.So by your logic masturbating to porn is a political action against gays if your straight and vice versa if your gay? The brain rot is real.
Lead or fluoride poisoning?
>>492518023Yes, that's literally what I'm saying. Someone came here and falseflagged to stir up shit. Then we got /pol/tards coming to argue. For literally months before that, we've had gay posts about different games here and nobody complained other than one self-admitted /pol/ tourist over gay marriage in harvest moon.
>>492518358Oh, well I either didn't notice or it went over my head. Lets take political action by buying Psuedoregalia and masturbating to furries instead :^)
>>492518174Making deepfakes of your political opponent is a thing and so is hatefap and unsolicited cum tributes.
>>492518553>deepfakes of political opponentsNot always, could just be they thought it was funny, its possible to take political characters and riff off of them and not actually have a political point other than its funny.>hatefapDon't bring up your personal problems and no jerking off to hot people you hate isn't political action.>cum tributesYeah if your deranged and I'm pretty sure that kind of shit is illegal if you send it.
>>492518768I didn't say all of them were, I said it could be used as such. The former franco-german green party leader Daniel Cohn-Bendit claims to have practice pedophilia as a political statement, Maureen Kearney was raped and tortured for political reasons. Does that mean all pedophiles and all rapist are doing this for political reasons? No. Not all assassination attempts are political, were Kennedy's assassination or Trump's attempted assassination political in nature? Yes, was Reagan's attempt politically motivated? Not really.You seem to not be able to understand nuance.
>>492519879>did so much mental gymnastics that he ended up just agree with methanks for playing!
>>492520264Let me ask you this differently. Is NOT buying the game because it doesn't have gay marriage a political statement?
>>492520264>agreeagreeing*
>>492520371it is.
>>492520391>Nuance is mental gymnastics
>>492520371No, not buying the game regardless of your political alignment is not a political action, nor is buying it. Disco Elysium and Caves of Qud are made by communists but people bought them not because of the politics but the quality of the work.>>492520557>mental gymnastics is nuance nowkek
>>492520674So what you're saying is if a white kills a black it's always racist and if a man kills a woman it's always sexist?
>>492520674You refuse to think that someone literally saying "I'm not gonna play it but I'm buying it to support the dev. Fuck cancel culture" might be politically motivated?
>>492520790Racism is a made up word. It doesn't fucking exist.>>492520914It's not political, it's protecting someone's right to free speech. Rights are not political.
>>492520790No>>492520914See this is where the nuance you misused comes in, I'm saying that its hard to really know the true motives of why people buy or don't buy games unless you stalk them and believe what they say, tons of people will just say w/e bullshit online while doing the exact opposite in private. My whole point is that it is in aggravate not a political action because your assuming a lot.Also, I think we have derailed the thread long enough, you can reply if you like but I won't reply after this.
>>492521145>aggravateaggregate*Sorry, I haven't slept in 3 days. Autistic meltdowns suck.
>>492521145Are you surprised a fag would misuse a term to fit his anti-white narrative? I'd go one step further. Nuance is fucking leftist pedo apologia. Most things are simply good or bad 99.99% of the time but leftists like to focus on the 0.1% where it's not that simple.
>>492521140>>492521660Go back to your stormfront safespace. Nobody is replying to you.
I don't care if it's gay or straight, if it's a dragon or can put on a maid dress I'm fucking it.
>>492521924Ah! A rune factory connoisseur!
>>492507732>degenerate leftist censorship-happy faggots seething because they find themselves on the receiving end of the banhammer for a changelove to see it, turnabout is fair play, you reap what you sow, you fucking retarded faggots
>>492508892the church married plenty of men to children whomst their fathers arranged for them to be married off to, not even that long ago, so yea, faggotry is entirely unholy, and marriages you don't like are perfectly kosher, so seethe cope and dilate, trannoid
>>492516219a child molester is someone who touches kids that are not married to them and thus are not their property, behind the backs of their unknowing parents, do not conflate child molestation, which is what you do, with arranged marriages, which is what white people traditionally did back when the white birth rate was above replacement levels, you whole shtick is thinly veiled loxism mired under the guise of the signaling of jewish loxist virtues, ACK yourself 41%er/kike (functionally no difference)
>>492524315>>492524604>>492525103Troll or /pol/tard I don't care. Fuck off back to your safespace. Pedo apologist creep.
>>492507732You know the discord messages are out, half of what you said isn't true. Someone asked to add gay marraige, he said it wasn't in his vision of the game but he would consider it but as of now it would be sidelined. The leftist mob spergs out over it and start harassing him, he tell them to fuck off, they act like he is "anti-gay".All of this could have been avoided if the original person didn't run to twitter to post the dms and whip up a mob. The dev was in his right to start fucking with them when they couldn't take "maybe later" as an answer.
>>492507732You get what you put out in the world, just go play some triple A games like Condord, Star Wars Outlaws, or Dustborn.
>>492507732Based, I'm going to buy both games now.
>>492507732>games are for everyone!>WHAT DO YOU MEAN THIS GAME ISN'T FOR ME!!!! I'M BEING OPPRESSED!!!There are literally thousands of games to play yet you decide to die on this hill? Do what the adults do and move on to games that cater to your tastes.
>>492507732>"Queer" commenter write a "very respectful request" (dev's words) to add gay marriageliterally didn't happen. you fags attacked him right away.>Nothing for a weekwhile you were organizing a full blown raid and hassment campaign on your discord >Dev decides to "show (his) teeth" and the "oppressive people left" (direct quotes)he never said that
>>492507732Just make your own games if you don't like how your being treated.>>492526567They'll never be happy because if even 1 game doesn't have their politics its a "threat" to their propaganda because they know how actually weak it is, the collapse of woke and DEI can't happen faster, hopefully they'll slink back into their corners of the internet and just make their own shit for themselves.
>>492507732kill yourself faggot
>>492507732If I was a game dev I wouldn't have any interaction with the fans at all, and if I had too to get criticism I would do it through multiple proxies and forums to collect data that some intern could organize for me to review.

>>492528168Marriage has been disallowed below 12 (for girls) and 14 (for boys) by the church since the 12th century (Gratian's decretal). Almost all of them were political in nature and weren't consumed as it would disallow annulment. Contemporary evidence shows that the average age of marriage in middle age europe is not too dissimilar to current average age of marriage in europe. About 30 to 35. The idea that a 20 years old is an adult is fairly recent actually.I'm not sure why you're arguing about middle age europe as if that's something we should inspire to return to.
>>492527617Why is everything that disagrees with someone a raid now?
>>492494452>This sounds like a repressed teenager finally getting to say "fuck" for the first time and thinking it's just so adult and cool.It is definitely the big problem with the game's dialogue, fuck is the only swear word the writers are allowed to use for some reason and boy do they use it a lot.
>>492530767Don't play dumb. It's a several hours old post that suddenly gets more replies than the thread gets in a week.You posted it on your fucking discord didn't you?

>>492534376Juni looks very cute in her little Indiana Jones hat. Also the backgrounds and sprite work are really well done imo.
>>492534187I don't think redditors are the kind of dumbasses to raid 4chan or try to argue that stormfront isn't actually a neo nazi website. They already raid the soulash and roguelikes subreddits. Very poorly if I may add.
>>492534645I don't use reddit because I'm straight and I go outside.
>>492534884>I'm straight and I go outside.You clearly don't use 4chan either.
>>492534645>Everyone I don't like is a naziStormfront is barely center right. You would know that if you went there. You just fell into the leftist propaganda financed by Soros and Bezos.
>>492534187this reddit sub has been one of many reddit outposts infesting 4chan for years now
>>492535562pajeetfront is populated entirely by indians, has been for 20 years now, all the white men moved to 4chan when the indian menace moved on kikefront
Nobody ever complained about my marriage tier list for RF5 that included both male and female candidates... To be fair, nobody actually read it and I wrote it mostly to put my thoughts into words.
so why did the ror devs sell out again?
>>492535265How am I talking to you then?
>>492538154Because 2 devs college project and gearbox takes first dip if they try to sell. So gearbox took first dip.
>>492537931I don't think the opposition of having gay marriage is the problem, its the people who want it thinking that they can throw a tantrum and control people to force it into the game that's the problem.>>492538154ror?What's the name of the game?
>>492538601Holy fucking tourist. Go away.
>>492538676I've noticed that everything you don't like is either a nazi or a tourist...
>>492538736You're replying to two different anon, tourist. Besides the other anon is correct, stormfront are fucking neo nazis.
>>492538736i mean to be fair if you're in an indie game thread and you don't know what "ror" is then yea it does make it seem like you're just here to shove your political garbage down our throats. nobody cares about either the trannies that cry for homo stuff, or the retarded anger management dropouts that cry about getting a win in
Once again, you disgusting fucking subhumans coming out of the woodwork to discuss this are in the wrong thread. Go to /rlg/ and dilate or whatever it is the other side does. Nobody cares.
>>492538952No one is arguing that but 1 specific anon and you're losing your mind over it, get a grip. You're just a slightly more tolerable version of your political opposite in this thread.>>492539020I forgot risk of rain existed, itsnot my game, sue me.
>>492539178Even /rlg/ doesn't care, nor do any of the threads they've been spamming.
>>492538736>I've noticed that everything you don't like is either a naziThe only time "nazi" pops up it's when taking about stormfront.
>>492539446No a couple threads ago he accused the polish dev of soulash of being a nazi because he talked to a dude who had an account on the website or something.
>>492539420I know /rlg/ doesn't care but that thread has been dead forever, might as well dump it there if the jannies aren't gonna do anything. I don't even know if there's still autistic CDDA spamming in there anymore. What a shame. Maybe I should make a Brogue playthrough chain.
>>492538451We're not talking, that would imply two way communication.
>>492539564I haven't played Brouge in a long time, never beat that game, same with CDDA.
>>492539629Being obtuse is incredibly boring
>>492539524From 4 days ago.>I just checked his reddit profile and he posted less than 1 hour ago a link to a self qualified "Neo-fascist website" about how he was harassed.That's literally it. He didn't accuse him of being a nazi.
>>492539712Play BrogueLite for an easier and simpler time.
>>492539848You need to go farther up than that, because he was responding to me for calling him out, I think he said "self qualified neo-fascist/nazi website" a couple times in that thread, at least 2 times in different ways if memory is correct.
>>492539954Literally the only time "nazi" was mentioned in the thread was when (presumably) you brought it up. You're fighting your own shadow.
>>492539954At no point did anyone accuse the dev of being a nazi. All the conversation was about how going to a website that brand itself as fascist is really not a good idea. I don't give a fuck about the website, I don't even know what he was referring to. You're just making shit up and building yourself a stawman to fight. This is the worst that was said about him:>If you claim to not be bigoted, you don't want to associate with fascist.But I'm not surprised after reading that conversation that you're too fucking stupid to understand what is being said.>Whats wrong with being a fascist?
>>492452195I would find this funny if the game catered to my ideology (love nazis, hate unions, hate women, hate blacks, hate my dad)
I'm tired of you retards arguing. I'm gonna eat and play rf3 or factorio. I'll let fate decide.
>>492539849I'll look into it, thanks.
>>492540385I didn't bring up stormfront, he did, your confusing your anons.>>492540586>misremembering is now a strawmanWhy are you guys so desperate for a win? Can you even act normal? There's nothing wrong with being a fascist or a communist, sorry you're too emotionally immature to understand that.
>>492540586>>If you claim to not be bigoted, you don't want to associate with fascist.Funny how all the communists do exactly what the fascists do (because they are both socialists) yet point at their brothers and say they are evil when both China and the Soviet Union were more efficient at eliminating ethnic groups at a much higher rate over a longer period of time than the fascist were.
>>492541998>Can you even act normal?No they can't, that is why they are here shitting up the thread with their reddit raid and moral coping that no one gives a shit about.
>>492542182Stop bringing up communists. Nobody gives a fuck about their failed ideology. Both fascists and communists are bad.>>492541998You repeatedly make shit up and fight your own made up shit. If your memory is that bad, take your meds.
>>492542489>You repeatedly make shit up and fight your own made up shit. If your memory is that bad, take your meds.I guess I would be on edge too if my ideology was collapsing around me in real time. My memory is "bad" because I don't give a shit, what you consider a moral imperative and honorable I consider pathetic and laughable.
>>492542643Their on edge because these people have ruined their lives being assholes and ruining people's lives for disagreeing with them, they know that once this is over society won't forgive and forget them and they'll be at the bottom of it, where they belong.

>>492542643Disco elysium moment.
>>492542942That's cool anon, I did check it out when you posted, this game seems to have a big modding scene.So this mod apparently replicates the cryptic bullshit as an optional mode, are you having fun with it or just playing platforming mode?
>>492542807Jedem das seine my brother. The white pride is coming...
>>492543164Knytt Stories is mad in 2007 by a romhacker who got inspired by playing and making romhacks of Super Mario games (like Kaizo). I'm playing easy, because easy in Knytt Stories ranges from:>walking from one screen to the otherto>make 3 pixel perfect jumps while timing your jumps to avoid the bullets... This is "easy" because we aren't making you do 7 pixel perfect jumps...So I always play easy first to get an idea before moving on to harder difficulty.I'm having fun, the platforming puzzles are pretty interesting there was two times I had to think outside the box so far. There is also a "trick jump" button puzzle which was kicking my ass that I ended it on.
>>492543164If you're interested in Knytt stories but you want something that has a low time investment but high entertainment value, try "Don't Eat the Mushroom" That and the pre-installed levels the game comes with will give you a pretty good idea of the breadth of tone the mod levels touch.
>>492516021The droneyard is so fucking good it's hard to take anything else.
Not quite sure what tot think of high difficulty Witcher 3. Fights are a lot harder and I do feel like I need potions and stuff to have a chance, but also I'm not entirely sure if this game was designed with this sort of slower and methodical combat in mind. When I consider how later it'll throw bigger groups of enemies at you, it's supposed to be more of badass power fantasy where you can kill 10 enemies and they don't have a chance.Could be just the low level experience though, I'll see
>>492553641not indie. kys.
>>492553641Max difficulty is the way to play really, buuuuut it's unbalanced as fuck in the early game, as in it's really fucking hard.I finished the game 3 times, never on anything below Death March, even modded the shit out of it to make it much harder especially past the first region because it gets way too easy once you've got a few levels.
>>492553801>Indie & Misc. Games General
>>492553641I dunno if it's you or not, but someone cried that Witcher 3 is "die and retry" kind of game where you can't be prepared for what the game throws at you.
>>492478425Sounds like a region introduction theme. Fits coral caves, honestly.19th certainly won't be the release date, i bet on trailer/teaser of sorts.
>>492553801make mealso isn't technically indie>>492554845I see. Another aspect I totally forgot is how little money you have at the beginning. I can't even afford to craft the witcher swords you find in the first area>>492560639I think that applies to 2 a lot more than to 3. Since you can chug potions mid combat and you only craft potions once after which they are restored with every rest, so the only place where it would be "die and retry" is if you face an enemy you haven't made the appropriate potion for yet
>>492546290the only one I didn't try yet is the tree, but I suspect its going to be shit. So far, drones are the best, not having to carry resources back yourself is like cheating.
I could have sworn this fight was kinda difficult on lower difficulty last time. Maybe it really is because I didn't use potions or anything. Or I did it earlier and the difference between doing it at level 1 or 3 really is a lot
>>492562116Dunno, only played 1 and 3, and I can't get into them at all.
>>492569191Understandable, I only played 2 and 3 and heard 1 was supreme jank. 3 is pretty good, especially in the context of the studio that made it, but also I think it's sometimes a little overhyped.

>>492539178that's another 6 months added to the delay on silksong, spidertroonalso, it's really ironic for your faggot troon ass to be telling anyone to go anywhere, you're the one who needs to fuck off
>>492542856Looking back over your post, I'd say your best bet right now is to go fight a certain boss somewhere warm.And if you need he answer on how to get there..there should be a doorway at the bottom of the Tower of Ruin that takes you to a small side chamber in Inferno Cavern.
>>4925700181 is really good, it's not that jank.

>>492542182that's because the ethnic group the jewish soviets eliminated were the whitest russians, and genocide (like everything else) is only ok in faggot troon leftist minds when leftists are the one doing it to the white race, because they are hypocrites, they pretend to be against such things to virtue signal and then turn around and celebrate the exact same things when their side literally does itthat's the difference between us, we are hosnest, we do not pretend that genocide by and of itself is bad, but they do while actively engaging in it nonstop
>>492542489>Both fascists and communists are badwrong, redditfaggot spidertroon, fascists are good, communists are bad, go back, silksong is delayed by another 3 years now, it's up to 9 and a half years additional delay now by my tally

>>492570018>I only played 2 and 3 and heard 1 was supreme jank.Witcher 1 is slightly jank (mostly the combat system) but absolutely comfy.It has a bit of the same feeling STALKER SoC has, you can feel the dev team tried to tackle something too big for them but it's still really fucking good.Also it has the best atmosphere of the three, it's oozing with polish dark melancholy. The village haunted by noonwraiths is megakino.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FUCZsRVzV3I
>>492577592that's 10 years and 6 months now, keep going
>>492570018>1 was supreme jankYou should've been there ok, we had absolute rpg drought back then, for me the game was everything I wanted (was a big fan of the books back then too, or rather my gf of the time was, her online handle was Yennifer ffs)Also what >>492578098 said
>>492578476Meds. Now.
Please help me.I am starving and rice isn't growing and all game is running away faster than me.
>>492574645Found and beat the boss as a test run with pistol, I'll try again tomorrow as a clean fight to preserve ammo... but just wanted to see what lied behind, seems like more deadend after that. Small extra section of Chamber Of Extinction. A "crucifix", a NPC, a merchant with no new key item but no new path..? I have maybe an idea what to do to open the crucifix since it shows a moon on a tablet, and a door inside. And a couple of hints I need to translate or check again. But can't test more things now, I died so have to go through the boss again... which I'll deal with tomorrow.You can just tell me as one word y/n answer: do I have what I need to solve this section right now, or do I need to keep finding another path elsewhere for another key item for now? Because that's the kind of thing that's starting to annoy me.>>492576165Haven't looked up anything except for hints received in threads here, so far only 3 hints: how to break Isis ceiling (I saw it but used wrong weapon), how to break the "water leak" wall (same dumb fail), and now that bit at the bottom of tower of ruin, I didn't even notice that bit, what is it even, a gargoyle's head? And that's the one level where I find it difficult to tell what's interactive and what's just background. I'm really running out of steam though, last two days I've just been aimlessly running around poking every wall and only found optional secrets and it's getting tiresome.I love the OST but I've reached the point where I mute it and replaced it with chill music.Eden went mostly OK but I literally checked every floor, wall and ceiling and went full schizo with map annotating lol. The Mario pipe thing felt like bullshit but actually the thing that helped me most was recording footage and rewatching, the walking blue ghost only appears once but hints at the path that leads to the boss. Rest of Eden was OK once I realized that.

>>492585760What's the Thief copy in the top right?
>>492588792Gloomwood.
>>492588181It's a game by Swery (Deadle Premonition guy)You're a journalist that has to uncover the secret of a small village in Britain (the secret is that people turn into cat and dogs at night) and also find a murderer.Apparently the game barely delivers on all its kickstarter promises, it's grindy as fuck, the story is a mishmash of unrelated stuffs that happen and worst thing of all at the end it does NOT explain why people turn into animals.
>>492589604Well that's a major disappointment. I watched Wicker Man earlier and that sounded like it.
blasting charges are fun too

>>492578098>>492578523Damn, maybe I should go back and give it a shot sometime.Also reminded me that I should get back to finishing Stalker. Clear Sky kind of filtered me between doubling down on my least favorite part from SoC (big shooter battles) and having some technical difficulties despite some fix mods
>>492511707played it, was fun enough.
>try 7 Days to Die again now that it's in 1.0>get hooked, already want more>need to wait for modders to catch uplife is just one long wait for better things
>>492606308Undead Legacy, Afterlife, and Rebirth. Once those are updated I'll be set for the next couple years.
>>492609345I never even looked up mods when my friends and I played it way way backThe past few days I've just been checking out overhauls that I might entice my friends with on a new save given that they're hooked so much more than I am. UL looks like the best bet since I keep seeing it referred to as vanilla+, which is always a primo starting point for big mods
>>492586378silksong is delayed by 12 years now
>>492610009I'd say UL is more vanilla++. Not a complete balls-to-the-wall overhaul like War3zuk or WotW, but still adds a fair number of entirely new mechanics that really change up how the game is played.Darkness Falls is more vanilla+. Most of its really out-there content (like the laser weapons, demons, and terribly-balanced story POIs) is segregated into the endgame, so for most of the game you're left with the gentler additions like classes and action skills while keeping the moment-to-moment play mostly vanilla. It can be a ballbuster at times though.
enough about Silksong, when are we getting more news on pic relatedI already earned my scales in the demo and I need more fish to catch
>>492615281Couldn't they spare more polygons for the logo render?
>>492585019Holy soul, it looks like something that would come out from an indie eastern european one man studio in mid 00's, pure kino cryptic eurojank. Badly looped protag animation, dirt-themed palette, stiff robotic humans, those fucking pixie dust effects like half of the low budget vidya used to have and pretentious monologues.I am thinking of backing this.
>>492585019i love rain world but this looks a lot worse since you're just a stupid little slug that can't even walk. i don't see how that could be fun
how did the guy who made axiom verge 1 manage to make an abomination that is axiom verge 2? it's worse on literally every level
>>492585019If there isn't a part where you become a cyberslug made for war the game isn't worth playing.

I went to sleep and woke up to the /pol/tard spamming me for no one reason. What the fuck is wrong with him?
>>492628572Dunno. For some reason it decided I was the one arguing against it, when I was busy trying to keep /cix4vg/ alive and busy at work.
>>492629501He thinks that there is only one "troon" raiding the thread so he is "protecting" his "people" by raiding the thread and samefagging when he's alone.
>>492629939Joke's on him, I'm not a troon.Just a pervert.
>>492629501no you fucking retard spidetroon, i didn't say you were the fucking retarded faggot from before, i said that everytime YOUR SPECIFIC faggot ass posts in this thread, i will delay redditsong by an additional 6 more months, which i have done, so now redditsong is officially delayed by an additinal 13 years on top of the original time it was being delayed by by the incompetent reddit knight devs themselves, you dumb fucking ESL nigger
>>49263006813 and a half years now
So angry it's samefagging now.
>>492615281I'm just enjoying what we have. I feel like it's one of those circumstances where the full game will take forever and might fall into development hell.I did a full replay with the new music updates.
does anyone know if there are fan TLs of this series? I've tried 1 before, but the translation is just so insistently bad that I couldn't take it. Apparently the later games got the same treatment. Failing a fan tl, I'd love to know the story behind the terrible translation from anyone who knows it.
>>492483314Just finished this, short (1-2 hours depending on how good you are) but well worth the sale price.
>>492630868redditsong is now delayed for 14 years on top of the actual development delay times
>>492630868I can't wait for him to samefag about 20 times and say "BUT WHAT IS THE WEEKEND!?" again.
>>492632062And embarrass himself by ranting about Silksong.
>>492629501drinks with my nigga AM
>>492631191what music update when?I last played on July 5 and don't see any patch notes at all, so if it was a recent update I'll play it again

>>492632062really ironic projection there, samefagging spidertroonredditsong is now delayed for 15 years
>>492633801It was exposed to reddit and it became gay.
>>492594869if you want, there is a standalone overhaul mod called Anomaly which add a lot of stuff and cut content without feature bloat, its basically the entire game but instead of the main story its freeroaming across the zone, which is far more interconnected than the vanilla map.Also by standalone I mean you dont need theboriginal game for it to work.
and another assignment done
>>492639208Cone Keeper?
>>492639208That doesn't look fun at all.
>>492636647I'm aware of Anomaly and even played it for a little while. But honestly it might aswell be a different game entirely and I would prefer to play through the trilogy first
Finished Intravenous 2. Good sequel, but I'm disappointed there's only one mission that presents pic related as a choice
>>492641505>social stealthWhat, the assassin creed one?
>>492640219the combat truly ain't the brightest part of the game, for some reason the devs went out of their way to make the shooting cumbersome, like some early flash games, where the turning speed is limited, so you have to prioritize targets, the art with black monsters also reminds me of some of these flash games, its charming, but could have been better in terms of gameplay. The mortar is kind of shit too.
>>492643071Yeah, it looks like a meh Heart of Darkness.
>>492583225>do I have what I need to solve this section right nowMaybe.That place is a fucking nightmare. It depends on if you have proven that you are small or not.As for clearing the boss.. that's not the unlock.It's a different wet place.Actual answer, the lake on the surface.
>>492646869Not reading the spoilered text yet. Quick progress update, just re-beat Viy. No ammo used, yay.So I tried to set the moon to match the symbol, no luck.Also a hint about using a golden key to open murals. Maybe it refers to the yellow fairy. Fucking annoying rng but managed to spawn one and check the "cruxifix" with her. No luck either. Maybe it's this but needed elsewhere. From the manual I know I can spawn them with specific softwares but don't have the right ones yet. So it's just a pain to experiment with that option.Didn't really know what to do, so figured I'd re-enter the chamber of darkness via the temple of sun entrance. For a completely unrelated, random reason, just wanted to re-check some hunch. And the two-headed statue crumbled and a path opened. Feels like such a fucking random and arbitrary trigger that you could fail to notice unless you revisit literally every screen. So maybe I got lucky I found that quick enough, but it's objectively obnoxious design. I haven't found any hint anywhere hinting that it was connected to the inferno boss somehow, so wtf is the connection. I was correct that it connected to the multiple tablets room. So now I have Talisman and mantras. I'll try to see if I can progress with this stuff next.I appreciate the vague help. I'll let you know if/when I feel completely stuck again. Probably soon lol.

>ALL COMPLETED LEVELS NOW PLAYABLE, PLAY FROM START TO DEVS COMPLETENESS, NOW.come oooooon
>>492654259It's the definition of an acquired taste and not in the negative way.Out of all the games I've played in my 35 years, it's one of the very few games that made me feel like I was playing video games for the first time again. There's something about the complete lack of handholding, directions, the random nature of encounters, the seemingly clunky controls that makes you humble and forces you to learn and improvise.Compare that to other games in which you're already a pro from the first minute because you've seen this control scheme or genre a thousands times already, and where the difficulty is completely artificial because you're drip fed both power and difficulty spikes at the exact pace the devs wanted to. Ironically, people like to call RW artificially difficult even though the approach to difficulty is completely hands off and every player will experience something different whereas Dark Souls would be the good kind of non-artificial difficulty, even though it's simply a game designed to feel hard, where you can write down the exact input sequence required to beat it.
>>492654259Not all games exist to make you feel simple joy, it's a great game about exploration with melancholic tones which can be comfy at times. If you don't enjoy immersion, then you won't like it, not all art exists to cater to you.

What are some good metroidvanias? Honestly not very picky
>>492718863Axiom Verge.Fight Knight.Bloodstained.Moonstone : a Hard Knight Day.

>>492718863Valdis Story
>>492718863I'm going to avoid the obvious onesTails of IronGrimeThe Messenger
>>492720137Oh yeah, the Messenger too. Excellent one, even if the DLC is too hard.
>>492720137The Messenger ruined other metroidvanias for me with how tight its controls are that I had to take a break from the genre for a year just to reset.Hollow Knight felt slow clunky the way people will try Monster Hunter and call it clunky because they picked GS first10/10 highly recommend just for playing "the floor is lava" for consecutive screens
>>492721235Wait, the Meesenger is a metroidvania?I thought it was a ninja gaiden linear kind of game.
>>492721235And also the music:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pw9WPfSpU0ghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=41mUOL6WdGwhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YZD_2s69wighttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0eXXxNhPCOA
>>492721483I actually had this discussion with a friend earlier this week.I wouldn't call it a metroidvania because as I remember (haven't played since 2022) it's fairly linear for most of the game, then opens up in the final ~1/3 while you hunt down macguffins. My friend equates that same linear-to-open style as how Castlevania did it, so it counts. I'd call it metroidvania-lite as a compromise. It's a fantastic platformer regardless because again you can play the floor is lava fairly early on which I enjoyed immensely. And the music is good.I can't really describe what else I like about it because it's things best kept as surprises.(it's also on sale on Humble for like $4 right now)
>>492722634Sounds like Monkey Hero.
>>492721569I don't remember police mechas in The Messenger...

>come back to Wizard of Legend after I tried it years ago>all the new types of enemies are overtuned as fuck>some rooms look like they were specifically designed to stunlock the player into death>new thunder area is just pure cancer and arguably harder than the final boss himself>all the meme combos seem(?) to have been nerfed in some way because people can't have fun in a PvE gameDon't get me wrong, it's still a great game to quell my itch for wizard stuff, so I'm still gonna try to get gud, but I wish indie devs weren't so obsessed with "balance" in a single player game. And the new stage rendering the older ones completely obsolete in terms of difficulty is also something I see a lot with new side-content being introduced during late development.Also, after a few years I expected a game like this would have carved itself some good niche following like Slay the Spire, with enough activity and content to be able to find in-depth discussion about all the different spells. But the community seems barren: I only found one single fanart of the sexy vampire doctor. That's disheartening.
>>492739195No, you see, you're support to use a very specific loadout to not get effectively one-shot by stunlock. Which is why the dev nerfed this loadout because it was extremely overused. Maybe this will make players try to use other things instead.

>>492743008>make that 17 years, samefagtroonI'm the anon that laughed at you adding years to redditsong and I also added it to 17 years to another anon, you gotta relax.
>>492631274There's one for 3 and it works fine enough. Dunno about the others but the official English releases would probably make any fan TLs of those redundant.
>>492656382Don't play Drox like Starsector, play it like Diablo.
>>492762134>asked by a woman who dont need no independence
>>492477454I'm surprised they never added like an tundra landscape with like a yeti enemy spawn. Honestly the landscape feature of that game is so fucking cool to me, but the fact they only had like 6 and two of them were kinda lackluster makes me wish they added more.

>>492665867>>492619995how is that a rain world clone? sure, i see some similarities, but it has fucking guns, mannable turrets, vehicles, many humanoid characters and it's supposed to be structured like a metroidvania.

Not that I dislike it to be fair, at least it a challenge of sort, as the combat is kinda easy up to now. If you want a mental image, imagine a missile boat teleporting all over the place as it send dozen of missiles, radioactive nukes and swarms of fighters at your ass, and there 2 or 3 of the bastards ganging you at once.

>>492718863play blasphemous
>>492739195so funny that they're just making a hades clone for the sequel
>>492718863nine sols for legitimately good combat and an involved story (that's just ok)blasphemous for the awesome imagery and themes. blasphemous 2 is a better game but has worse atmosphere and imageryhollow knight obviously
>>492814483seems fitting to me, since the devs are talentless hacks who couldn't design their way out a paper bag, it's only proper and makes perfect that they should shamelessly trendchase like the talentless hacks they are
>>492816204lizard of zizard isn't THAT bad.... it's only mediocre....
>>492814483Yeah... I appreciate that they're doing something different instead of the typical "sequel" that could've just passed as a major update of the original game instead. But the essence of WoL doesn't exactly translate well into a Hades clone: so far it just looks slow, messy and uninspired, and the graphics are atrocious.Also, I didn't want to say it, but there's something about the new bosses' designs that just reeks of the meddling hands of a DEI consultant firm to me.
>>492711354I played that but there's plenty of stories not in sunless.

>Chinks reviewbomb Book of Hours for pittiest of reasons>Might cause DLC delay because of thatIt's fucking over, yet my note making craving is growing stronger.
>>492840554What the FUCK is happening here?
>>492841916Basically fro what people gathered>AK made Russiand and Chinese translations>AK hired Chinese CM>CM started telling people about new official group>Chinks started to question if he is a CM>CM doesn't provide any proves ( some say he does that in harsh mannor )>They ask AK about it>He confirms it>They're pissed about AK hiring someone outside of their group and proceed to review bomb it>Not wanting to get DLC in mixed or negative AK tells they might postpone release of DLC before everything sorts outBasically, never do anything good for Chinese
>>492841916Chinese translators made a mod to translate the game in Chinese. Then suddenly sent a threat to the game studio which made the game and demanded a percentage of all sales because they're "the reason why the game is popular at all" despite chinese representing less than 1% of their playerbase.They do that all the fucking time. Don't starve had the same problem, Klei told them to fuck off and made the paid mod rules even harsher to ban their mod.
>>492841916from I know of chinese culture, it probably that the company hired some chinese company for the translation, chinese translator botched up the job twice or their management embezzled the money, then they blamed the gwailo investor to act as damage control.I mean its the Chinese, they gotta keep face no matter what, even when they're blatantly wrong.
>>492842869if i make a game, then i am just not ever going to have any translations, if you can't into english like a civilized human then your bugman/subhuman ass can fuck right off, god damn
>>492843198This is spot on. That's why I refuse to work with Chinese companies nowadays. They always try to screw you over and the Chinese are "patriotic" which is a very nice euphemism for ultra-nationalist zealots.
>>492842894based klei
>>492843198Nah, it's just that the devs hired community managers without the "consent" of the chinese community, as if someone working on their little indie game had to ask the CCP to provide community managers instead of hiring one themselves.It's always the same thing with the chinese, you want to sell your shit in China? Better be ready to give them full control your product.
>>492842869You should've cropped out the 2nd review. I cringed so hard I almost permanently contorted my face.
>>492851145That's literally the law in China. They're literally that authoritarian.

>>492862928Played it a bit. Found rock. Mined it with a stolen tin pick. Saw that I was running out of food. Panicked and quit.
>>492862928Played it a bit. Found a giant slime monster. Nearly died and quit cause I realized "I need to actually set aide a chunk of time for this game."
reached basically the last stage of this challenge run in evolvebeing a slime still sucksi need to make 80 veil rippers in order to destroy the universe. they take mana, crystals, and infernite. veil rippers themselves create mana so that's not a problem, and crystals i can just buy off the market (which is good because producing them normally sucks and absolutely nothing scales it)the problem is infernite. infernite is fucking slow. i'm getting 5 per second, and i need maybe thirty thousand average for each veil ripperone i can improve is having more scavengers, but a: they die off constantly even with total demon suppression because the scavenger combat algorithm is kinda fucked up and b: they cost plywood, which needs to slowly be craftedthe other thing is more sensor drones to make each scavenger suck less, but those take growing piles of adamantite which, again, is fucking slow and itself is a pain to improve gains foroh yeah and also every veil ripper i finish applies a global penalty to resource gain. it's pretty small at least

So I just finished Starcom: Unknown Space, so here a small review I guess;>GameplayKind of okay, top down view of space where most of the combat is relatively simple dog fighting, nothing ground breaking but it provide enough liberties that you can make more or less any ship you want, but it is annoying how certain ressources are super rare which make getting late game stuff a pain in the ass to get, ie I never even upgraded my ship to the last tier because id have to grind ressources to trade for them which would have cost me tons of stuff. But otherwise it did the job just fine as far as gameplay required given the story and context. Also the fact you can customize your ship how you see fit is nice, and allow you to build one which usage please you.>StorySurprisingly good, I mean its kind of basic scifi babble but it provide an interesting context for the game, long story short you and a few humans are stuck in an alternate universe after and you gotta figure a way out, so there is incentive to thoroughly explore since you dont know anything, and most of the factions you encounter are original and fleshed out in a way that it isnt black n white morality, and youre given liberties with how to approach them.Overall id give a 8/10, probably more worth getting in a sale if exploration isnt your cup of tea, but if it is then I suspect you'll like it. Or just wait for a pirated version and try it out then.
>>492890730Isn't the main character asexual?

>>492899327I'll just stick with PZ if I can't find any, but it really is a real shame how there's no modern alternativethis game has been in development for what, 10+ years now? i'ts still clunky as hell and you just know it will never be finishedsomething about retaking the city one building at a time would be great too, never found anything like it either
>>492900746>i'ts still clunky as hell and you just know it will never be finishedthey said the same about 7 Days to Die and that's finally in 1.0though the jury's still out on whether or not they did it simply to say they reached 1.0 and bump up the price of the game

>>492935357PBKAC
Played Dungeons and degenerates gamblers. It didn't take long to beat a main run. I'm kinda mixed on it. The graphics were an improvement from the demo, but the music got a downgrade with them trying to make unique versions of the track using some really bad instruments. The gameplay is mostly the same as the demo, honestly felt like the demo had more playstyles so far.I mean there is some stuff you can do infinitly and it breaks the game, then there is stuff in the late game where almost every card is 21, so a certain playstyle is required to even win near the end. Either you win on turn one of a fight, or it takes 20+.I don't really know what to think about it. I might end up refunding it, I really don't know.
I'm enjoying Blasphemous 2. Enemy placement relative to the terrain seems very thoughtful
>7.4% of players have beaten Tactical Breach Wizards, according to steam achievements>3.6% have the achievement for damaging the final boss with every party memberWhat are you scrubs even doing? Don’t know how to use all your characters?
>>492938887I don't even know what that game is. I just saw it mentioned like twice in this thread, likely by you now that I think of it.There is a ton of reason why players could drop a game before the end.
>>492938887Get a trip, thanks.
>>492940120Those two achievements are both for completing the game. I’m surprised that so many players got one but not the other. >>492940120So close to quads. Maybe next time.
>>492940632Believe it or not, this is extremely common in games to have those weird discrepancies. Tons of ways that could be explained.
>>492792656Okay, well, let me post a little of stuff I tried.Dragon Eclipse - $10 do not get. Had a good demo but dev trashed the balance currently with new enemies. Wait for new update or maybe more future updates. Discord currently sits dead, not looking promising.Cataclismo - there's nothing wrong with it, I just realized while I was playing it that the combination of mechanics wasn't hooking me. I was also hoping the "build your own structures" part would be more fun but I wasn't having fun with that part when I did get to it.Dungeons and Degenerate Gamblers - pushes Blackjack to its breaking point. Getting a game going can be a bit hit or miss depending on the deck, games usually take about an hour or so to complete. Good for short burst gameplay. Luck Be A Landlord is more fun for longer plays though.Looking for more roguelike deckbuilders. Tried playing Across the Obelisk but it's very slow and clunky. It's like someone took the the good parts of Slay the Spire, put everyone on one team, and then made the actual level portion really slow and irritating. Building the deck is fun, but since the encounters can take so long and some of them are just "well there is no way to lose!" at the start, it can get real boring real fast and they lock the madness modifiers from the start. So, yeah, I was looking at Knock on the Coffin Lid and Vault of the Void but I can only afford one or the other.
>>492950659Glad you're having fun, Anon.;^)
>>492950659I am having flashbacks.But not of this part.That fucking pegasus...
>>492928232It's not a perfect game by any stretch, but it's still good. Fun combat with multiple playstyles, believable characters, good story, great visuals. Exploration and world are kind of bad, and traversal is tedious until you get the upgrades
>>492936075I really loved the three weapon system from that game. Not only is each one designed in a very charismatic way, but they also managed to perfectly encapsulate the 3 main fighting styles people tend to gravitate to imo.
I just found an interesting detail in disco elysium. When you force kim to wear the pissfaggot jacket, it's uncensored if you have homo-sexual underground internalized but it stays censored if you don't.

>>492965481>>492976027What the fuck did I miss. Why would a niche card game for autists cause internet drama?
bumaxxing and debating wheter or not to buy an indie game at full price instead of during a sale (the game costs 5 euros)
>>492976346The weather factory games are apparently pretty influential in china and a few retards got annoyed that the dev appointed some random chinese guy as community manager instead of someone from the chinese community (which the dev didn't know a thing about) and so a minority of dumb retards got annoyed.I'll say this though, at least the chinese people complaining seem passionate about the game, it's not the same kind of opportunistic and ideological review bombing we see here whenever there's a black woman or a lack of gays in a game no one has played.
>>492976782book of hours is like the last game I'd expect to be a thing in china and start this kind of dumb pettty chink controversy
>>492976541>the game costs 5 eurosyeah but on sale that could be TWO games!
This game sure is pretty. And I was surprised how good it even looked on my semi-shit rig back on release before the new update.
>>492985998Nowaday it looks like shit tho senpai
>>492976782>>492977365>Secret Histories Games are popular in ChinaHuh, that's something I wouldn't have expected.Kinda feel for the WF team, this isn't something I would want to deal with as a small team working on getting out a DLC for my passion project
>>492986153Chinese are even worse than American.
>>492986075You think so? I like it. Except for that weird blur that sets in in the distance.Though I admit I don't remember how the game looked before to compare.Also my screenshots don't really do it justice because of image compression I assume. It looks better in motion
>>492986302Well I don't, therefore it's horrible and literally worse than shit.Pic related is waaaaaaaay better.
>>492985998Fancy expensive graphics aside, I don't think any game does nature better
>>492421408Legend of Grimrock?
>>492986457That's a completely different style though I'm not sure you should really compare the two. They look good for different reasons and try to achieve different goals. It's like saying Klimt looks better than some Baroque painter or whatever>>492987432It's definitely great, I especially enjoy all the marshy areas of Velen.Though in terms of nature I think one of my favorites might even be Kingdom Come, just because it's a little more "down to earth". I remember commuting between two random quests in that game and really getting the urge to just shut down the game and go on a hike in a forest
>>492986457>Being disingenuous comparing cell shading to photorealistic graphicsAnon please, if you attempt to troll, it help not being obvious as hell. I dont even think the webm you posted look bad.
>>492990009I never said it looked bad :^)except for the monster killing me way too quickly
>>492950659I absolute hate la mulana, I love the concept, but the execution is suffering.
>>492995171Many such stories among indie games.
>>492995171
>>492950250Have you played Wildfrost, Cobalt Core, and Chrono Ark?
>>492997473This is racist but sadly true.
>>492842869>>492913080>community managers are the literal face of the company>hire an uber retardo to be your CM>proceed to act surprised when shit hits the fan
>>492999034>many such cases!at this point I feel like game devs, especially small-to-indie size, would be better off not having day-to-day CM positions that deal with reddit, discord, or wherever else. A first-party site forum, sure, but even that should just be forum moderation.CMs whose job involves daily responses and interactions with these scum we call "gamers" only ever cause problems because people are reactionary fucktards that want answers to questions every single day, but damn you to hell if you give me an answer I don't like.But then again I'm biased because the CMs I've observed most belong to /coopg/ games and let me tell you how much I've come to hate Sweden
>>493000316story time?
>>493000316You think you want this but you really don't. Not having someone to scope out the socials means that you're running blind. The whole reason this drama started was because they were unaware of what was going on in one of their communities. In addition, CMs are basically the fall guys, without them people start blaming devs (note how you hate CMs but not the devs who hired them and decided on all their policies).
>>493000316Nah, in this case, the chinks were at fault for being disgustingly entitled.
Aw, star truckers kind of sucks
>>493001753To surprise of absolutely noone, a space game without 6dof controls, an unoriginal gimmick, tackled-on playway first person repairs and complete and utter lack of substance or any originality beyond "but what if there were country truckers in SPACE??"I don't know what you expected, honestly.
>>493001047>(note how you hate CMs but not the devs who hired them and decided on all their policies)I grant your point on a general industry level, but for Fatshark and Arrowhead Games specifically I know them both well enough that I hate them in their entirety. Fatshark is a masterclass in how incompetent an entire studio can be and still make money because you have no true competition. Arrowhead Games's CEO couldn't stop telling everyone on Twitter about all the cool features they had to drop to bring the game to launch (at the same time insulting their players), and every patch since month 2 has made the game worse because they have a professional game assassin as their lead balance dev.Both studios have bad CMs, but there's not enough smoke in the world to cover up the garbage. Sweden keeps catching lightning in a bottle and all they can do is build a pile of shit to put it on top of.
Anyone got any tips for peglin?
>>493004690>peglinIs that some new homo sexual practice?
>>493005279I'll put a pegl in your ass you ask any more stupid questions
I bought Bloodstained RotN like a year ago for twelve bucks and only just started playing it, it’s mediocre at best (and ugly, and really grating with how many dull cutscenes it has and how shit the voiceacting is). Why do some people suck it off so hard? Is it really just because Iga made it?
>>493001753Shame. Though I have to admit I didn't really like the aesthetic anyway. Wish they would have gone with Cowboy Bebop like truck design>>493002379>without 6dof controlsWait, really? I played the demo and vaguely remember that having 6dof. Or was it just 5?

I fucking love that game.So oddly chill.
>>492998550>(You)Tried the demo to Wildfrost, did not like the lane + system for your own guys attacking. Unless they improved on it, I wouldn't pay money for it. Same for Cobalt Core and that demo, a lesser FTL + lane positioning wouldn't do it for me.I pirated Chrono Ark and got stuck on the "death" boss. I wasn't able to lock down its abilities or shit out enough damage to keep it before it killed me. (Think it was called the Reaper?) I might try again because there was unlocks and I may have just built my decks poorly.
TV series and multi-part movies/books are just Early Access, yet no one complains about those.
>>493019136Not really, because most of these are produced all at once then distributed at a slow pace to generate more revenue and clout, with a few exceptions. I guess webnovel, webcomics and mangas and similar would fit that description better given they're literally parts of a greater arching story which use the format to lower the strain upon the writer/artists who make it, sometimes even axing the story before its finished because of lack of interest by the author.

Games I'm looking forward.>Monster Hunter Wilds>Space Marine 2>Grim Dawn dlc>Tavern KeeperRecent games that I'm sad I waste neetbucks on it>Hell Divers 2>AvorionRemember to like and subscribe to my blog.
>>493019136Nah, the equivalent would be the first drafts or test episodes. Season/book/movie 1 isn't an early development version of season/book/movie 2, it's a continuation of a single story.
>>493024343What's Avorion?
>>493024663Space lego game.
>>493024343>wasted money>Helldivers 2I feel that one
>>493024343Avorion could have been so comfy with better build mechanics.
>>493019136what >>493022087 said. And also it's not like when episode 6 comes out you have to go rewatch episode 2, because they decided to change the second half of that
So I was given this game for free cause I really wanted it but rn I'm on a binge playing thru my smaller (i.e. shorter) indie games. If I start this fucker, how many hours should I expect to pump in my first run? I'm the kind of gaymer who's first playthroughs are LONG because either I ramp up the difficulty, explore a lot, or a combo of depending on the game.
>>493024343>Monster Hunter WildsAbsolutely same. You might say, I can just go play World, but it's just not the same somehow.>Tavern KepperMan I'm so on the lookout for games where you run your own shop or something along those lines, but somehow most of them turn out kinda whatever to the point where I don't even bother giving them a try.>Hell Divers 2I've clocked 60h in that, at least half of it with friends and I honestly think it was worth it, even if I don't ever touch that game again Did they ruin it further?I'm mostly excited for>Book of Hours DLC>Gloomwood and maybe REKA 1.0>Espiocracy>>49302797220-30h easily. I don't know how long it took me, because I played the game for free, but it's a long one and you ideally want to play through it in one go
>>493027972Full playthrough with all the side stuff is like 40+ hours.
>play game for 30h>take break for multiple months>don't feel like continuig, because I've forgotten where I was in the story, what I wanted to do next, etc>don't feel like starting fresh because that's losing quite some progress and also I might just burn out againcurrently going through this cycle with Vagrus
>>493028398>but it's a long one and you ideally want to play through it in one goWait, are you saying DE is good for one run? So basically like a story-driven game?>>493028513FUG. I may wait on it then cause I'm not in the right mood to play it atm. Take you haven't done another run then?
>>493028764Yeah that's EXACTLY why I'm asking because I don't want to be here yet once again. Maybe I'm getting old but some games are just too damn long sometimes.
>>493028398>>Hell Divers 2>I've clocked 60h in that, at least half of it with friends and I honestly think it was worth it, even if I don't ever touch that game again Did they ruin it further?I have around 10 hours. Friendless. The only thing it keeps getting are nerfs to guns.
>>493028782It is story driven but there are a bunch of variables that will probably make you want to replay to see some different outcomes. (It takes into account so much little shit, like for example an important character you meet early on recognizes you by your clothes, but if on replay you don't wear those clothes, he has an alternative line of dialogue and that's just a minor example).But what I meant is that you don't want to take breaks from the game to play something else, so you don't lose the plot so to say
>>493028398>spoilerLast month's war bond brought with it some new flamethrower-type weapons.In preparation for that, they nerfed how flamethrower effects work (i.e. the actual thrown flame and not ambient fire on the ground) so that the crowd control weapon that was already lacking in crowd control has even less crowd control. Then they forgot why they originally nerfed chargers and buffed chargers.Then they nerfed a bunch of player weapons while generally making enemies stronger.And every patch still has a list of "known bugs" that includes bugs that have been known for months, including some in the game since launch.Ask /coopg/ or /hdg/ for more info, they'll be happy to rant about how much Arrowhead is doing to drive people away.
>>493029189>In preparation for that, they nerfed how flamethrower effects workBut flamethrowers already sucked.
>>493029000>The only thing it keeps getting are nerfs to gunsFucking hell. This is the exact problem Warframe had. The game starts out with a decent roster of guns, but you need to either make every new gun the best gun in the game or nerf the existing ones down, so players have a reason to pick up the new ones. This is the exact reason I dislike games with too many weapons>>493029189>they nerfed how flamethrower effectshuh, I remember saying that Helldivers 2 was one of the few games that had a good feeling flamethrower, I guess that might not be the case anymore then.Sounds like a disaster either way. I remember my group quit the game around the time where there was some bug that made one player die randomly all the time because his gun was somehow bugged. At least that's what we thought
>>493029162>you don't want to take breaks from the game to play something else, so you don't lose the plot so to sayRight. Ok well I'm not starting DE cause that could happen then>(It takes into account so much little shit, like for example an important character you meet early on recognizes you by your clothes, but if on replay you don't wear those clothes, he has an alternative line of dialogue and that's just a minor example).That's fucking neato either way
>>493029726>Fucking hell. This is the exact problem Warframe had.The problem, at least with the latest warbond is that even the new relased guns are pre-nerfed. Like the other anon said. Is a big brain move to nerf the mechanic which your new weapons use.I would have refunded it but I realize I played more than 2 hours and Steam told me no. Played a bit more but anything over D4 with randoms is 60% chance of failing the mission. And for some reason samples are difficulty gated. Which I really hate because on the first game I could get all the unlocks playing low difficulty missions with randoms.
>>493029315>>493029726>flamethrowers already suckedCorrect, but at least it could do things like damage multiple enemies at once and burn through armor (see the favored strat of torching charger legs) when you weren't accidentally setting yourself on fire. The FLAM-40 wasn't the most powerful support weapon, but it was fun and viable. Now it's useless.The exact wording was buried in the "Miscellaneous fixes" section of the Escalation of Freedom patch notes>Adjusted flame effects to work more realistically.>It doesn't go through various bodies/objects where bounce off would be the expected behavior, like on armors and static objects.What this means is you can't burn the legs of chargers, and the flame won't penetrate even the smallest of bugs to burn the ones behind them. One of many changes in the name of realism that, as always, only make the player experience less enjoyable.But don't worry, it's plenty realistic that the automatons can still shoot you through solid terrain if they stick their gun barrel into it, and that bile titan heads sometimes, for no reason, become immune to damage. We can't bugfix the enemies until we finish nerfing the players in the name of realism.
>>493030706and for what it's worth, here's my time played. I started playing on the launch weekend and lost interest after however many bad patches. I originally was just planning on take a break and wait for Illuminates so I'm not burned out when they arrive, but at this point I'm not so sure Illuminates alone would bring me back.
>>493031510>75 GBFuck sake.
>>493006443people suck off curse of the moon, not rotn. play that insteadalso the ugly graphics and shit voice acting is just castlevania in a nutshell. the japs love that gross ass low poly muddy 2.5d style
>>493025487what the fuck did freddy arrowhead do
>>493030558>anything over D4 with randoms is 60% chance of failing the missionD7 ended up being my comfy spot, even with three randos. I couldn't care enough to constantly tryhard for D9, and D8 suffers from that strange symptom of bad randos where all the people too scared to try the hardest difficulty gravitate to the second hardest and just make it a bad time (but still think they're gods who're never to blame for their own deaths). D7 was chill enough that, in most cases, one properly-equipped diver could carry a bad situation, but not so difficult that this was a regular thing. Downside? Only 3 super samples, but everyone was there for that reason so everyone was looking very hard for them.>>493034353This was back in the first 3-6 weeks after launch. They finally got out a balance and content patch around all the server issues, and one of the first things they did was nerf the very popular railgun.Fredrick then spends a day on reddit "discussing" the changes with players by insulting them, calling their complaints "skill issues," offering advice like "maybe try a lower difficulty," and generally acting like he was actually posting on /vg/, all while using his official AHGS account. Somehow he got away with doing this all day, and then the next day at 5AM Sweden local time he got woken up to make that not-really-an-apology post and had his social media rights rescinded.
here's my occasional post of coming soon (tm) games. some of these may actually be out already. i know arc seed is out, but that's the extent of my knowledge. hope you guys find something to add to your list
>>493027972A good 40 hours, also dont be too worried about the implied time limit, you'll have plenty of time to explore every nook and cranny of Revachol.
>>493028764>Play game>Enjoy it thoroughly>Be cursed with the vivid memory of my experience for ages, making any replay even years later empty of that feeling of discovery because I'll instantly remember it allIt was hard playing A Way Out with my cousin because of that, still managed to play the fool butbI felt dirty afterward.
>>493036005but are there any good gaems out now?arc sneed is about the only one released on that list
>>493038959...it's a "coming soon" list. the entire point is that they're not out yet. go play nine sols then
>>493038959Good games aren't real
I like the humor in this game.
>>493038959didn't mean as a jab, i've just played everything that interested me already and currently relapsing
>>493039787meant for >>493039180
>>493039787oh. all good then. no, idk. i've just been playing slay the spire and deadlock on repeat. all 5 indie games i've tried within the last 1-2 months have severely disappointed me. gonna try intravenous sometime soon since i got it for free on steam. i recommended nine sols since it's the last genuinely good indie game i played (i did play cocoon after it, and while i liked it, it was kind of too short and one-note to be a worthwhile mention)
>>493040642What games did you try and not like?
>>492965481Statement PR letters are fucking cringe.It appears that even chinese fandoms are as atrocious as the english ones.
>>493039730Some parts are fine.
>>493042334>It appears that even chinese fandoms are as atrocious as the english ones.Why the fuck would they be any better?
>>493041602this is me >>492082945if you want a brief rundown:>dread delusionthe world didn't capture me. it felt imaginative but in a rather soulless way. i just wasn't interested in exploring. plus, i thought it'd be more like lunacid (which is mediocre but still mostly enjoyable), but it wasn't>conscriptextremely boring setting. killing-machine-tier upgrades and 50 million consumables in a survival horror. no actual horror aside from "humans and war are the true horrors of this world." at least give me some sort of zombie outbreak in a bunker>chrono arkjust made me wish i was playing either slay the spire or darkest dungeon instead>void strangeractually liked it and it had a lot of cool stuff going for it, but the gameplay mechanics were a bit too simple to warrant me doing 250 levels of the same thing over and over again. also, maybe i'm wrong, but to me it seemed like it incentivized multiple playthroughs, which i think is retarded in a puzzle game. if you wanna do that just make a quirky earthbound rpg with the sokoban stuff for the gameplay in between>penny's big breakawayno camera control in a 3d platformer means it's automatically bad. also starting your run felt like trudging through the mud for 1.5 seconds before you actually reach max speed, which feels awful
>>493042583You never know, it could've been cultural retardation.
Finally 100% Spelunky 2's chevos. Now there's just the endless grind to reach the end of Cosmic Ocean...
Any anons here played Crying Suns, and if so, what is your opinion on it?Personally I liked it, kind of like FTL but more story driven (surprisingly good story too) and battles are more fun than expected.
>>492935357Oh right, forgot about Nine Sols. It was nice.
>>493044507I liked it yet i just can't bring myself to play itIt's decent but hardly compelling I should probably try again
>>492882230Is that the game being made by TrainWiz?
>>493046404Try to unlock one of the alternative ship, I personally quite liked the green dudes one, iirc the gimmick is that your smaller ship cant be repaired but you have way faster resupply, so its more fast paced and you end up saving tons of ressource, allowing you quite a lot of freedom in what you send to battle while not having to care at all if they get btfo.
>>493049332yeah
>>493052559Does the game have enough content to justify buying it?I'm gonna download the demo and try it out. I loved playing Freelancer as a kid.
>>493052917I've gotten about 115 hours of it now and still don't have everything by a long shot especially with the new update
In Nine Sols, after I rescued the village from an attack, the little kid disappeared from my base. I then did the quest with the fat guy to save a poisoned villager, and he still hasn't come back. I hadn't given him all the possible gifts, does he come back later, or did I fuck myself from getting the achievement? There doesn't seem to be any proper guides for this game, yet.
>>493057894are you sure he's gone? i don't remember him ever disappearing
>>492862928I've been playing too, it's really good! I've beaten the slime and the worm so far, and have a neat lil base going with a few NPCs.I just set up a buch of drills around a few different ore boulders, that was a great challenge which feels like it's really going to pay off in the long run. I have a solid and steady supply of food via farming, and my next goal is an automatic wood farm. Then, probably the third boss. Really enjoying the game so far, feels very clean and simple but has depth in all the right places. Always something tangible to work towards next. If you like survival-crafting-exploration-bossrush games this one's a banger!
What's wrong with Helldivers 2?
>>493039730Yeahhh just wait until you get pink negro stronk wimminx party member, the writing takes a dive after that moment
>>493062814Devs can't balance for shit
>>493062183How's the farming?
>>493062814>devs can't balance>devs can't bugfix>muh selective realism>still haven't fired the SerbI'm convinced they want the game to fall down to the same numbers Helldivers 1 just for how much easier it is to manage
>>493060076Never mind, I'm retarded and he was in one spot I didn't check.
>>493039730How to find a woman with hips and thighs like Jen?
>>493062183game suffers from extreme variety issueall the swords are the same, all magic weapons are the same, most enemy variants are the same, gameplay loop past first 2 areas is the sameit's stupidly grindy
>>493076126Dude, spoiler. Obviously I was still on Act 1 when I posted that image.
this might be kind of specific but I was reading Children of Time and with the space Steam sale going on, is there any ggame with nonhuman races where interaction is more than just trading or fighting? Like a cultural exchange kind of thing. The closest I can think of is maybe Mass Effect
>>493077763mm. there's a couple space roguelikes (traditional roguelikes) that have that. also the ftl multiverse mod has a lot more racial/cultural events and dialogue
>>493028782>Wait, are you saying DE is good for one run? So basically like a story-driven game?Depends on you. I replayed it like I reread some books but I also know some peope hate the sleight of hand it does regarding its content.
>>493077763Children of time is a good book.
you know something really simple that i thought was super special about animal well? it had a flute that you can play songs on. i miss when zelda games did this. more indie games should be doing this. incorporate an instrument you can play. even if you only get a couple songs that do random things. it's such a fun little mechanic
>>493079645What are they called?>>493082874It is, I've been spending more time reading it than playing games. I think it's because sometimes a play session isn't "fun" but an interesting story can be more engaging right away.Tried playing Monster Train some more, man the Hellhorne spell cards kind of suck. Am I not using them correctly?
>>493062814The playerbase is made of massive faggots who want to clear the highest difficulties with a pistol and zero deaths.
