It's just Ubisoft DESPERATELY trying to remember everyone of the one good game they did.

Play any indie games lately bwos?

>>564977324
I tried Valheim again. If it counts. Apparently it has a publisher now, so dunno if it counts anymore.
Also playing Runescape made me dislike it.

>>564977324
I signed up for GamePass again to rent some games, unlocked 95% of the content in Vampire Crawlers, still playing Menace (fun) and Ball x Pit (eh), installed 1000xResist and No Man's Sky but haven't started them yet. Waiting patiently for Forza Horison 6.

>>564977324
Been trying to get into unknown sector, which is some scifi isometric rpg, but ill admit the gameplay, janky animations and writing hardly entice me.

>>564977324
1) Tiny Rogues. Really fun. Just unlocked the Shadow Realm and was a cunt hair from killing the boss.

2) Sol Cesto. Very interesting game, unique look and gameplay. Very cryptic. Still haven't made it to the bottom of the dungeon.

3) Slice and Dice. Perfect mobile game, can even play it in portrait. Finished a couple times on normal. Hard has me grabbing my ankles currently.

4) Hades 2. Put a lot of time into it on the Switch, got it again for the Steam Deck. One of the nicest looking games I've ever played. Absolutely beautiful art style. Gameplay is really fun, and to top it all off I love Greek mythology. Becoming one of my favorite games of the past several years.

>>564978937
I played BallXPit for a couple hours. The base building portion didn't interest me. Gameplay was fun enough although it seems to rely too much on luck. If you get a bad set of balls you can become unable to clear the stage in time before taking damage. I like when a game is hard, but make it so that a skilled player can overcome the difficulty even with a shit run of luck (Isaac).

>>564977324
Sol Cesto (got my first true victory, might as well push a little more and try to 100% the game)
Wargroove (i really should download the "no tumblr noses" mod)

I played Master Key not too long ago. Pretty good Zelda-like.

I can't buy anything on GoG, anyone else has an issue?

>>564973348
I'm not even sure I'd call it good, it was mainly just a breath of fresh air after a slew of more and more similar games.
Yes the sailing and pirate shenanigans was a lot of fun, but the actual story missions sucked ass, it felt like half of them were trailing missions both on foot and the sea, and with your ability to mark your target and see them through walls it was more of a challenge than a chore.
The modern day story and gameplay was utter garbage and I think I'm one of the three people on the entire internet, who actually liked the Desmond segments back when I first played the game. Plus I remember how the climbing, at least in the wilderness, felt like a downgrade from III.
But to be fair none of that matters if you want to just nostalgiabait.

Sadly, we aren't allowed kino. Also, dunno why monsters are so dangerous in Vintage Story. Since making and even wearing armor is such an investment, it sounds like a terrible idea to make monsters so common. I avoid caves as much as possible because of them.

One thing that's making me genuinely sad right now, is that I had my first journal on me, that I've been writing in for multiple in-game months now and thanks to item despawn timers it's gone forever now. Didn't think I could get this attached to virtual things anymore to be honest.
I like item despawning as a punishment so I have to spend some time, building back up after dying with a set of tools on me, for example, but I hadn't even considered losing my book.
>Also, dunno why monsters are so dangerous in Vintage Story
I'm sometimes tempted to just turn them off, the wilderness is already dangerous enough half the time and usually all the monsters do is just make me pause what I'm doing and wait out high rift activity in my house or something.
Even spelunking can be dangerous without the monsters. The other day I almost got lost on my way back while low on food and that could have easily been the death of me.
But on the other hand I do enjoy the mystery and learning about the lore. And temporal storms are really cool

>>565004725
I've never played the game you're talking about, but it's totally despawned? You couldn't backtrack to your corpse and retrieve it? Sorry, pal.

>>565005671
You can, but there is a 10min timer after which the items despawn. You can change that setting at any point, but I decided to keep it, because in my previous saves I had it disabled and felt like death didn't have enough consequences and having to remake some of your tools and potentially lose some resources felt like a nice setback to make death more punishing and reward preparation and careful play. It just never occurred to me I could lose something "irreplaceable" like that.
But unfortunately I didn't make it back in time, because it was the middle of the night, got lost in the woods and hat to wait until sunrise to find my way back.
The game even has a grace system, where when you respawn, you emanate some light in order to make respawning in the middle of the night less unfair. But I didn't manage to orient myself quick enough and getting chased by some dangerous wildlife hasn't helped either. At least this will certainly remain a very memorable moment.

It's funny how people can get attached to their digital/game items. I played Warcraft for many years, from its inception up until the end of WOTLK. Throughout that time I had a mule character who'd hold all my extra stuff - weird oddities and rarities, "worthless" items that had sentimental value, gifts given by friends, and perhaps most importantly, letters. In that game you used to be able to go to the mailbox and type a letter to someone. When they received the letter, they could either delete it after reading, or click and make a copy. I had a couple dozen letters I'd saved over the years, the contents of which would be meaningless to anyone outside of myself and whomsoever had written them.

A couple years ago my wife went back to play a while so I reactivated my account to see how it was looking all these years later. The first thing I noticed was that, despite server mergers, the place was a ghost town. During the height of the original game you could log in and there would be people everywhere, even on my small RP server. On the PVP servers it'd be even more filled with life. I hopped on the gryphon and flew to Iron forge, which was, at the time I played, the "main" hub where trading was done, guild meetings held, and new mounts and gear showed off to the envious noobs who made the journey after being cut loose from the starting area. Not a soul. I did a /who ironforge (a command that would list all players in a specific zone): just me.

Then I hopped over onto my bank character to reminisce, and to read the aforementioned letters. They were all blank and I had no idea why. I looked it up and learned that when a character was deleted, so too were the contents of all letters they'd sent. I felt that sadness, coupled with the fact that I wasn't young anymore and that the world had moved on.

Long winded rant to say, I'm sorry.

Talk to Peshek, the miller guy who lets you sleep at his home. You can ask him to teach you lockpicking and he gives you some free lockpicks and let you use his training chest.

>It's funny how people can get attached to their digital/game items
To be fair that's kind of how fiction works. In a story (doesn't matter if it's a game, a movie, a book etc.) you have to at least some extent perceive the characters as "real" people who you have some sort relationship with that feels real to you. Otherwise what's even the point of consuming fiction?
And I assume the same goes for games that are more open ended. Those virtual items hold real value for you, usually because you invested time and effort into them.
And in your case those were actually real memories. Reminds me of when I accidentally lost my Steam screenshots folder with all images older than about 2014ish

Remind me of how I got the cbt treatment from Blizzard as a kid, as they permabanned my account forever over conflicting payment info, because years before my friend had made the account for me (had introduced me and gave me an acc so I could play with him) and used his name when creating it... Right after my BC trial ended, so I lost a lvl62 paladin and wasted money buying BC.

It may have been decades ago, and it still kind of hurt thinking about it. Went to private servers afterward but it just never was the same, the magic of discovering that world was no more.

>>565069574
Sorry, pal. You're right about the magic being gone. Back then there really was a TRUE mystery. Nowadays everything is solved and datamined instantly. A trillion forms of communication remove any need to build a real community with your server. Maybe I'm just a bitter old fuck.

>>565070534
No, no, you're right. All the rumours I heard about the schoolyard as a kid, a friend writing me the code for Sonic 2 on a paper before I lost it, or asking to my brother what's behind that unreachable door.

>>565070714
I remember one time back when Banjo Kazooie came out I was trying to find out how to reach one of the secrets. I haven't played the game in years so I don't remember what it was, only that it wasn't in one of the levels but the hub world, in a poison (?) area. My best friend at the time had discovered the secret. His dad was one of the OG IBM computer nerds. Had an office that looked like a parody of a hacker movie - monitors all around, wires running everywhere, the tiny "Ace Venture inside the rhino" fan to move the air around. Guy was old school, used to show us Doom and Tomb Raider and Worms on PC when we were little. But he was also very strict, believed in working to achieve goals and bettering yourself, etc. It's because of how rigid he was, I assume, that he forbade my friend to tell me how to get that Banjo Kazooie secret. Said I had to figure it out for myself. I eventually got the player's guide and found it that way.

I miss old asinine stories like that. Hadn't thought of that in decades, wow. And yet again I'm shitting up the thread with off topic posts.

i remember asking my big brother to defeat the insaniquarium final boss for me and watching anxiously by his side and praying to the wall hoping he'll make it

>>565072189

>Wasn't Tortuga a famous pirate haven or something?
Historically, I think Tortuga was British? It's just that the local governor was extremely tolerant of pirates.

>>565085749
Most likely that there were tons of privateers, who were basically turncoat pirates turned bounty hunters against other nation trade fleet and the occasional pirate, but the port authority probably were quite lenient when it came to verifying the origin of fenced loot or preventing docking to coming ships, especially when one could easily just falseflag as an authorized merchant. The peoples who first colonized the island were French tho.

Losing your items on death was a harsher penalty than I expected it to be but I hope this has made me learn my lesson.
Though on the other hand it's quite satisfying, seeing how far I've come when I realize how much infrastructure and stockpiled resources I have so that even dying with a full inventory including all my coal for instance I can get back most of it in a matter of days. And I'm lucky I postponed making iron tools, would have been real frustrating to lose those right away.

Dwarf fortress has been in active development for so long that players who started playing it at the beginning could have had children at the same time and had those children grow old enough to have their own children who are themselves old enough to play dwarf fortress by now.

All right indie, keep a good eye on the place for me, make sure you squash any spiders you see flat with a shoe or whatever.

Man the spider on my porch is so big my backyard door's been replaced with a fuckin fog gate, I ain't messing with that.

These characters are great.
But their game purely running off of that. It has no merits whatsoever beyond the characters.

Prove me wrong.

Where's My Summer Gun (Road To Vostok)?

>>565181952
Is that any good by the way?
I played the very first demo and it looked promising.
The negative reviews say that the enemy AI is a little busted, which doesn't sound fun in a permadeath extraction shooter

It's good, the foundation is rock solid but it needs a lot more content. Early access is early access. And it's not full permadeath, only the endgame zones are.

I looked at the reviews complaining about AI and I'm gonna say skill issue. Someone said "they can kill you from a mile away, shooting at you from 1–2 km" when the daytime detection range is 400m, nighttime 50m and they have to see through your camo (the AI needs to go through rudimentary image/color recognition thing to detect the player) so that's not a problem unless you're rocking the santa suit, a colorful duffel pack and ninjarunning in the middle of a street. It's a game that gets FPS fundamentals right and rewards patience, situational awareness and sharp eyes. Very refreshing in the modern era of temporally blurred "cinematic" game renderers.

AI vision feels a bit wonky until you unlearn pvp habits.

When scanning the environment from a position of concealment but no hard cover, constant movement is bad. Staying motionless is good. Nobody's gonna headshot you with impossible accuracy the moment you stand still, but doing a silly little strafing dance will make them more likely to notice you from the motion.

Ostranauts got an update recently.
Is it still laggy? Optimizer mod still mandatory?

Don't claim evil when it's just pure incompetence. Rare found out that the n64 could keep a game's ram active for about 15 seconds after taking out the cartridge. They thought they could do something clever with this to be able to transfer a variable to open doors or make items appear in a different game, basically you play a game and you get told that you just opened a door in a different game, you then switch cartridge and the door is open and you get an item, you can then use the same cartridge switching trick to then send the item to another game and basically do a big loop of transferring items between different Rare games.
Pretty clever right? Wrong. When they told Nintendo about this idea, Nintendo told them it was a truly terrible idea because there are different models of N64 and other models would have the ram completely flushed after 3 seconds or less and on top of that it was very risky both for the console and the cartridge. And that was the end of it, it became a huge running gag. Well actually they thought they could maybe salvage the idea by adding cheat codes as failsafe but it just completely killed the fun of it so it was scrapped and turned into a joke.


But what about stop n swop? Well, the idea of smuggling active ram values from a game to another through cartridge swapping is a real thing and was in fact used to finish super mario bros 3 in 5 nanoseconds but it's not done on real hardware for obvious reasons (in this speedrun's case, because it requires several extremely precise swaps to basically do a form of arbitrary code execution).
Swop is an uncommon UK spelling of the word swap. Stop n swop was "implemented" in the xbox 360 versions but it's a lot less fun and the reward was just xbox profile pictures and background.

I never played an extraction shooter in my lifs. Until weeks ago I didn't even knew this is a thing.

>>565190612
I wish there were more of them you could play in singleplayer.
I like the general idea, how having some permadeath-adjacent aspects that make death more punishing, without just wiping all of your progress just because you got careless or unlucky.
But pairing that with multiplayer, where some fucker who has a thousand hours in the game will dome you across the map, because you haven't memorized every square meter of the level yet doesn't sound like my cup of tea

>>565179146
Dont they email you when something releases?

>>565191053
>some fucker who has a thousand hours in the game
That's not the problem.
The problem is that 99% of the playerbase are barely sapient, but uses cheats

I am too old and tired for this shit. Been playing mostly cozy or casual low stakes games lately.

Maybe I will try that duck game at some point tho.

Pah! The only sadistic thing about it is they stopped at 2 and made a much worse game before fucking off
Just like the songs of conquest devs

Okay but you're wrong.

Gonna play animal parade.
I need to choose between playing one of the stupid looking male characters or installing the gay mod and playing the much better looking female character.

>>565189669
Okay but Banjo Kazooie is still the second most overrated game of all time.

>>565193054
Yeah, that too
>>565195337
It's not quite the same, but I found the Stalker freeplay mods (Anomaly, Gamma and whatever all of them are called be warned /sg/ has some strong opinions on them) to be quite cozy, when you return from an excursion and spend the night sitting by the campfire with a smoke, a beer and a can of beans, while someone is playing the guitar and talking about their recent adventures.
Too bad there are some limitations, like map size, they inherit from the base game that kill some of the fun for me.

Ok, testing ostranauts now and it seems to run better than the last time. Still uses a shit ton of memory and cpu cores even when it's paused.

Is any of this stuff is even worth flying out here and back to station?
Guess it'll have to do, I don't have time to start salvaging anything big, my battery will barely last the trip back.

Interesting to see what skills end up high level when only using their own lessons from books on them.
Not too surprised about the forge and knock one, I know they have several high challenge books with three lessons, and Inks of revelation also had enough.
I'm surprised about Weaving though, didn't think there was so much, or that Rites would end up so high. It's my only high Nectar skill.
Scale is an absolute dearth though. I think my highest scale skill by the end of the game is level 4. Moon only wasn't as big a blocker because Inks of Revelation churns out asimel really easily.
Taking the lessons learned as votes, this went to a Knock victory. Cool one, too.

All right, plan B since I can't just mosey on up into the port as a frog, let's try and dock at some shallows and walk to town since I only need to reach the tavern. Perhaps they won't question the shit accent or gay look.

I still don't know if I should get the DLC too. I bought the BoH ages ago, and haven't started to play due to waiting for the DLC to get a good sale, as I barely played(as in less than 20 hours) CultSim, and something tells me I will find BoH as hard as CS.

This is actually pretty cool, I had like five or six layers to try and improve my odds of entering or reroll my failures before I fucked up anyway. There's a decent depth to the multiple choice system.
