Ah, Earth Dancer! Your dance has brought me joy and happiness. In gratitude, allow me to bestow upon you this recipe.
There appears to be a correlation between microtransaction and tolerance towards conflicts of interest.I'm sure it's going to be a very useful finding in 5 to 10 years when it finally gets published. Who am I kidding? It's gonna get 5 citations because it's not a noble topic despite 1/4 person in the 20 to 40 range being a regular player.Truly the one question I have is chicken or the egg? Did microtransaction shape culture into accepting clear conflicts of interest as not being that bad or was it the opposite or maybe something else shaped our culture into accepting both. I suppose we'll never know.
>>567376487Certain humans are inherently susceptible to gambling addiction, even at great personal expense, even when the game is clearly so out of their favor that it is obviously just giving the house money for nothing. It is exploiting human nature and biochemistry.It is the fool and his money, trying to put a stop to it is as foolish as the fool himself. Not just that, it is also the rightful course of action to let it go on, as the fool does not deserve to keep his money if he will so flippantly part with it.The fool deserves to be poor, some of his lost money may end up in the hands of someone who will actually make good use of it.

Fire emblem as a series fucking sucks, the gameplay is bad, the story are boring, the writing is forgettable, the character design sucks, the localization sucks truly fucking bad and basically the only good thing that ever came out of this shitty franchise is Nowi. I like Nowi's design. She's poorly written and one dimensional tho.Sorry. I just felt like ranting about how much I hate fire emblem but really want to fuck a 1000yo dragon loli.

A few of the ones I tried out before but wasn't able to get regular appointments with were really weird
>>567392113I feel similar about War Thunder at least back when I played and it had only WW2 planes and just started doing some tanks. I'd gladly pay money to get a version of that with reasonable unlock times, preferably in singleplayer.

I don't intend to go all the way to the ship yet as I don't even have the Navigation for it, but even the next step of the quest would let me earn a fuckton of Doubloons just by attacking pirate ships.

This bitch by now went into full "let me tell you every single part of my plan and leave step by step instructions how to prevent them in codex and emails Is end to you" mode Hilarious nosedive for the writing but helps ease a bit of how bad the game is designed.I sure hope you remember that 1 single room in a past floor behind 3 different elevators with explosives if you did not pick up 4 in your tiny inventory that also holds batteries, heals and the attachment thingies you needed 1 of before.

Just had my first laceration knox virus death. It didnt say infected when I got the wound, but popped up when changing bandages so I thought it was just a regular one. Eventually the infection tag went away and the wound healed... but my symptoms kept progressing. And I died... then undied. Pretty fun stuff
>>567414956Good question. I have no answer.Same dev as Wedding Witch, which doesn't mention any translators.

>>567414794Very cool game. Really nothing else like it. Like you said, the atmosphere is absolutely godlike. Did you get the bonus weapon?
>>567417474To join their exclusive VIP lineup I need to take down pirate ships, the bigger the better.I've been avoiding taking escort requests from dive bars because the last time I did one I got ambushed by 4 pirate ships doing it, but it sounds like now's the time.

>>567417715Blogposters keep this general alive. I thank their tireless free work.Unless you want for fags to start talking about their mental problems again.
>>567413667Lmao and you havent reached the most bullshit "puzzle" of them all, which is the very definition of padding the gameplay to an unreasonable extent. I love this game but god damn is some of its design choices super archaic and border on point n click sadism.
>>567417715Would you rather instead I blogpost about the 400th time I bought a fuckton of Coffee and Tobacco, to ship it to Willemstad or Capsterville?
>>567420764Can you wait more than 2 minutes between each frame?
>>567420818It was part of a single conversation, that I cut half out of and kept the most interesting bits.
>>567417664Yes, but it's kinda bad. The heated sling felt better and it kills you on the flying knives fight.The harpoon was also awful because the pickups were awful to get.
>>567414686Spoken like a true Engl*sh.
>>567420568Yeah I can't flame it too hard since it is that old but goddamn there are some very basic things they did fundamentally wrong.Surely System Shock 2 is actually good and worth the hype, right?
>>567422484If you have a brain, sure. If you're a retarded zoomer who sucks cocks and needs his hand held constantly, you'll hate it.
>>567421949I missed the sling upgrade somehow. Very underwhelmed by the ballista. Figured it'd have higher damage. The water section was very disorienting for me.
>>567422842>very disorientingThat's what makes it great, you can really get turned around and feel how anxious you'd be diving in the dark with your light and air on a timer in cold dark water. Same for the diving bell, FUCK that dive
>>567423647Yeah, that diving bell section was fucking wacky. I hope this guy makes more games.
>>567417676>Go to a Spanish port>The french are attacking itBut why? You guys can't beat the fort with this much.
>>567425783Full sized rank 1 french warship, thankfully they're 100% focused on the Spanish fort because I couldn't beat this guy alone, never mind his backup. With him distracted? Far more manageable.
>>567426010He decided to surrender without a fight after I killed 90% of his crew and the fort took 90% of his hull. Almost disappointing because I wanted the experience of boarding a rank 1 ship to see what it'd be like in combat, but oh well the loot should be great.
Why does every game have *this* skill tree? Is it some Unity default asset?
>>567426492They're apeing node buster.
>>567420141I agree, but I think it's possible to dial down the volume. When I blogpost I prefer to keep it to like 2 posts a session.I assume people aren't interested in a frame by frame letsplay and it's easier to start a discussion with a single post that has a bit more content. I could be wrong, that's probably a stylistic preference
>>567426854>2 posts a session.That's not blogposting.
>>567426267The fight with the rest of his fleet is still raging, killed two Galleons but my second ship's taken a real heavy pounding and they still have a Heavy Frigate remaining who's raining down cannon fire from outside of my range.
>>567427896I beg to differ
>>567428616Beg for this, fuckboy!*ziiip*
>>567426854>I could be wrongYou're wrong. It's almost impossible to post as much content as you're hoping for in a single picture.
>>567429096>as much content>screenshots of barely a half sentence>accompanying single sentence monologueYour shit fits in a jpeg
>>567429442Do you want him to break open photoshop and stick the entire convo in one picture for your convenience? Is Hiroshimoot charging you per picture viewed?
>>567429096Well you do you, I prefer to summarize and put at least a little thought into what people might be interested to see a post on.And as I said, that also makes it easier for other anons to engage with, when I see someone post a screenshot every 2 minutes eventually my eyes just glaze over and I ignore it.
>>567429945You don't have to justify yourself to that fatherless loser.
>>567429945You know, if something's not for you then you can just ignore it? People aren't here specifically to entertain you, fuck off.

You know what I miss? Picking up random completely blind as a kid. You just walked into a store (the supermarket my mom always went to had a small video game section) and you'd just pick a random CD based on the cover.Now you have big backlogs, limited time and the internet so taking the risk on some random game you've never heard of doesn't seem worth it when you have so much to play and so little time. Plus many game you do play "blind" are still based on the recommendation of a friend or seeing something online that intrigued you so you still have at least a vague concept of what the game is like.That thought just came to me when I saw a game that looked vaguely interesting in the Steam Ocean sale whatever and I'm thinking of just picking that up on a whim and finding out what it's like without looking into it.
>>567437680I got a few good surprises just perusing Steam or Gog's stores.
>>567437380No need to take it that personal, anon. Not everything is an attack on you.

>>567437934who are you quoting?
>>567437737>>567437916I remember to this day how Civ IV was the first game I've ever refunded. Because I remember some kids at some field trip were talking about a strategy game where you can go from the stone age to modern day and that idea absolutely fascinated me to this day I'm not sure if they talked about Civ or maybe something like Empire Earth and when I saw that cover I was sure that this must be the game they were talking about.But then I got home and tried playing it but just absolutely couldn't wrap my head around the whole turn and tile based gameplay, no games I played before had that. Plus the tutorial was Sid Meier having his little face in the corner of the screen, telling you how to play in English with translated subtitles and I wasn't a good reader yet.

>>567422747Oof that sounds rather defensive.
>>567422484System Shock 2 is an old game on an old engine. Expect jank and halfbaked ideas that still end up being somewhat fun.
>>567440539idk to me that warning sounds reasonable and well-targeted, given that he was replying to a lobotomy patient who fits the description.
>>567430427>we should improve things somewhat>FUCK OFF JUST IGNORE ITHigh IQ take.
>>567439652Yes, that's the one!That hist had me so confused. It's honestly funny, how much we take understanding games for granted, but when I was confronted with this for the first time it was totally unintelligible why these 3 dudes can only move from tile to tile and only on their turns.Reminds me of someone talking about how his son who only played platformers struggled with Minecraft at first, because he didn't understand the game is in first person.
SCP Containment Breach is a surprising game, I died in the first randomly generated room, and my friend died in the intro.In the slifhtly over an hour play session, we died 36 times and 173 killed us 27 times. We were averaging a death every two minutes. I figured a blind, permadeath race on max difficulty would result in a lot of deaths but Jesus. Modern gaming has coddled me.
I really want to get back into Voices of the Void, but I think I might be too much of a pussy for that.I think so far I haven't even seen any of the actual horror, though honestly just existing in that world feels spooky as hell.
>>567437680I miss that too. Cover art is a true lost art. Not like we had anything other than word of mouth or obscure magazines for recommendations. I still remember the video store in my tiny New England town. Showtime Video, got a free Dum Dum any time you rented. Fucking Christ on the cross. It truly was a different world back then.
>>567441329Well it's not as old as 1 and they learned stuff from 1's development so it should be alright.

This is apparently the power level tier list of Specalizations in Siralim Ultimate. I actually can't see how Shadowbringer isn't in contention for the best. Like, Pyromancer is better? Really? What's your backup when you run into shit that's immune to indirect damage? Witch Doctor? What do you do when the enemies are immune to confused and what's your notdie2dudes strat when things aren't 100% ideal? Shadowbringer doesn't have a weakness and I guarantee you it clears shit faster and more safely than the aforementioned. Maybe who ever made this list didn't really understand the extent to the potential it has. This is probably a better topic for the official discord.

>>567464264The point is if you can't even criticize the state religion, do you think they'd be letting people be flaming homosexuals?
>>567464631...yeah?not every religion is christian
>>567464631You're conflating modern views with ancient ones, plenty of religions have allowed people to be flaming homosexuals, those aren't mutually exclusive at all. We have firsthand accounts from ancient Greeks who discussed the effects of homosexual relationships in the military. Similar deal with pederasty, especially in Sparta. The sacred band of thebes was explicitly comprised of gay couples, it's not a matter of debate at all. Meanwhile people are coping that "desiring their thighs and sweet mouths" is supposed to be nonsexual. I'm 50/50 on whether or not that infographic is satirical.

>>567454513There's statistical analysis that more or less points out the people trying to make homosexuality seem common in ancient greece cherry picked from an incredibly small number of artifacts and did some very creative interpretation for others for their reports.They basically did the equivalent of someone from the future going to an archived rule 34, filtering by anthro vore and using the relatively few examples to claim it must have been common in 21st century society.

So I just finished Dead Wells: the devil fragment, and it was a game to say the least. Nothing ground breaking, but it has this sweet indie jank that you know is the result of 1 or 2 dev going into a project that ended bigger than they expected, but its actually consistent from start to end in term of quality. The weirdest detail tho is the unorthodox combat, where breaking an enemy "stance" cause them to bounce in the air, whence you can punch them higher into the roof for additional damage, basically juggling enemies to death. I was also shocked by the quantity of weapons, at least 30 or so, each with their own gimmick or feature, with like 20 special skills that act like magic powers, and customizable horses for some reasons, which are super janky. You can tell they are self aware about it too because the dev like to put horse spawns at the most random places ie deadend of a cave you had to crawl into.
>>567470726Yeah but release soon
>>567470094Your opinion is very valuable on the subject matter
>>567471212It was meant to release over a year ago. I've been forgiving but I'm also realistic: I'll trust it to be out of early access when it's out of early access.

Sadly AI vibe coding has enabled any fucker to throw together a basic "incremental game", so all they have to do is copy what already exists, and just change the theme. Sometimes it's Ore, sometimes it's space coffee, sometimes it's trees, sometimes it's souls for a ritual. But it's always more or less the same game.
Any Kenshi bros around? Is there a non-fandom wiki that I just can't find?

>>567487598It is unfortunate, but I agree with you.

>>567465616>I'm 50/50 on whether or not that infographic is satirical.I think it is. The way the arguments get weaker and weaker as you go down, and end with "this passage is probably satire". It'd be a silly way to arrange them if it was meant to be serious.
>>567475252Won't work in court, the judge and jury need to be able to understand what the expert is saying.
>>567454513>Show a video of 2 men fucking>"They're fighting like bears!"I don't know if you realize the thing you posted is probably satire... I mean come on, it literally ends with "TRUTH: This passage is probably satire". That's a punchline...
>>567495256Sports and Olympics were done in the nude in Ancient Greece, the idea of doing sports with clothes on was invented by Rome and even then the Romans still did the Olympics naked. I forget the religious reasons for why they did that but I know many Greeks saw sports as an allegory for Man before civilization: naked and fighting with each other over scrapes.
>>567495256I mean, it also goes against Jews, so...
I like spreadsheet simulators, thinking of grabbing solar expanse, what do you think?
>>567496045Yeah, "He's a jew so he's lying". It follows all the codes of deadpan satire. It has the "they seem to be very good friends" meme. The entire thing is full of jokes, you need to remember that all those examples were selected and instead of hiding what would disprove the claim, it highlights it and gives a funny, over the top explanation. That's not how you do propaganda, that's how you do satire. The way it's written to subvert expectations by crossing the line of believability at every example is way too clever to not be intentional.>>567495904I'm only talking about the image. It's satire.
It's a shame that your only options seem to be arresting her and not arresting her. I wish if you succeeded that one Volition check you could remain suspicious of her but still let her go as a kindness. Then again I guess I am biased since I've already played the game and and this is meant to represent what Harry feels in character>>567497179watched someone play and it looked fun. A little like Terra Invicta but without the alien invasion and the shadow government part. It's still early access, right? Looked a little barebones, but then again I'm saying that after only seeing like an hour of gameplay
>>567499779>I'm only talking about the image. It's satire.>t. historyletOkay...
>>567447107>>567447191I remember getting a racing game demo disk as a first day in school present. I don't think I even understood the concept of demos then, was just confused why half the content was locked, but then again as a kid you just accepted things that didn't make sense to you without questioning them too much. Played the shit out of some of those games, even if I only had a single map to play on. Just thinking about it connected two neurons in my head and I instantly remembered the soundtrack and the sound of static cow models that moo if you crash into themhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgec24lgPys&list=PLbhrXoDfMHOox-Oz8UAFdw6A6YPA0t2D4&index=9Also on the topic of old game OSTs that re illegally goodhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FkapCawKf8&list=PLEB44DB4A1440111E&index=10This shit is crazy>I remember fondly picking them and reading all the cool stuff on their backs, everything sounded amazingOh shit yeah, looking at the three little screenshots at the back and formulating your whole opinion of the game based on those.I also remember how I was allowed only a limited time of video games per day by my parents, so when I really wanted to play but couldn't I've read and re-read the manuals to fantasize about what I'd do when I got to play again.>>567447457>>567448047I've found a game that looks interesting and is fairly cheap in the current sale and usually I would at least look up some gameplay before buying it, but I think I'll just get it and see for myself.
I don't know why I expected the Yunyun game to end on a positive note.It just made me sad to think that these people exist, that nothing is gonna change and one is coming to help.

>duuuude you cleared floor 7?>go back all the way to floor r which is under floor 1 to advance lmaoThese devs weren't just incompetent but also malicious.
What the actual fuck?Ohhhh those random numbers on THOSE screens were not random and had a purpose and that's why we did not put them in any log haha!Fucking kill yourself devs. Doesn't matter that you are so old that you die soon anyway because you do not deserve any more time with us on this planet.
>>567434241It's infinitely better than the 3 retards that keep trying to make this a political thread.
>>567513271But you see, there is a lesbian couple that is only mentioned in a few lore books who had an immaculate conception and that's why we really really hate this game. Please understand.
>>567518820Faggot
>>567513271The developer using the game as a culture war tool poisoned my experience, I just ended up getting reminded of retarded politics every time I loaded the game and ended up just never wanting to play it again.
>>567519635Explain yourself...
>>567520093Developer saw some people didn't like pronouns in starfield, added them into lunacid as a political statement.Didn't originally have any plans to add them during early access, just decided to make it political on a whim.Apologized later for compromising their art to make a political jab at people on twitter, forgot the apology and started doubling down on the political shitposting later, the dev's a cunt, I don't like him.
>>567520651>Add pronouns to make people like you mad>Get madI guess he succeeded...
>>567521473>randomly politicize your previously apolitical game to make people on twitter madI don't use twitter, not everything needs to be involved in your stupid culture war, I'd rather not be constantly reminded of it because you have no self control and need to spite random people on twitter.
>>567521473
>>567520651>>567519635I don't care about anything outside of the game. Not just Lunacid, but in general. I don't care about the developer, I don't care what kind of person he is, I don't care about his beliefs, I don't care about his personal life, I don't care about his politics, or whether he takes it up the ass. Culture war shit doesn't interest me, must be a younger generation thing.
>>567521991>previously apolitical gameAre we still talking about akuma kira? The same akuma kira who made spooky's house of jumpscare and lost in vivo? Apolitical?
>>567522182>it doesnt matter to me, so you shouldnt carealright commie, get back in the bus.
>>567522469Don't put words in my mouth. I didn't tell you not to care. It doesn't mean shit to me whether you care or don't.
>>567522351Yes? There were no clearly politically motivated design decisions before he did that.Were those other games full of culture warrior references or something?
>>567522182>Culture war shit doesn't interest meAnd I would really prefer it that people don't make it a part of their game.

>>567470925
>>567518237>trying to make this a political thread.You had to summon xir.
>>567522696Anon, one of the area in lost in vivo is about bulimia and the social pressure a pregnant women receives. The area is literally called "grand bulim avenue".
>>567522696whut?Dude, Spooky's House of Jumpscare will kill you if you pull a conservative move and kill too many specimens. You're meant to act like a liberal and get bullied by monsters.
>>567525372So I'm supposed to expect he's going to involve his game in the culture war because a previous game referenced pregnant women and their troubles?
>>567523724Thanks for your sacrifice
>>567526139Body dysmorphia and emotionally manipulative husband are political topics.
>>567523724It looked interesting but the artstyle looks kinda bland to me
This and the elevator not working without overlay are 2 very replicable bugs that are quite annoying. The game in general controls really weird around edges. The character just seems to randomly stop and speed up without reason while walking near one.
>>567521991>apolitical gameno such thing, unless you're talking about a purely mechanical game with no substance and even then it can be political
>>567526881I fail to see how GTA and COD are political but okay

>>567527051The disorder could be focused on something as ridiculously trivial as thinking one of your pinky fingers is slightly too long.
>>567526881TIL metal gear is a political game according to you. I thought it was just a funny spy movie spoof...
>>567527212we live in a political world, every piece of media you create is by necessity filtered through your world view in one way or another and will in some form be a reflection of it, even if it's something super minor and uncontroversial. That's just the way it is, whether you like it or not.Also it's ridiculous to me that apparently to some people whether or not a game has pronouns or some shit is the height of politicization. That shit is so infantile.>>567527381Never heard of the former and never played the latter, but spyro does look like it would have a story with some sort of moral at the end. If it does, it's bound to reflect the worldview of whoever wrote it in some way.>>567527660>>567526980I wish we could go back to the good old days when games weren't political
>>567528243>every piece of media you create is by necessity filtered through your world view in one way or another and will in some form be a reflection of itAnd this will not always result in something political.>That shit is so infantile.It is pretty infantile to politicize your game because someone on twitter made you mad.
>>567527660Spy movies are inherently political. The genre only exists because of the Cold War. Maybe most of them don't have much to say about politics, the same way most WW2 shooters don't really have any particularly hot takes on Hitler, but I think Metal Gear actually does. Your enemies in these games may be circus freaks, but they sure got opinions.
>>567528243No but you don't understand. If you select a pronoun nothing happens. Can you believe it? That's so horrible.>>567528548Throwing a tantrum over a game released 3 years ago is pretty pathetic even for you anon.
>>567527381>politics of ape escapewhen monke too smart, it bad for gubirmint and oligarch. thats why school budgets are getting cut to ribbons with every new president, and student debt is used to scare kids into going to factories instead of to learning. be good slave to oligarch, and capture all monke that is too smart.>>567527660even spy movie spoofs (and spy movies in general) are political, either being about the Cold War or the consequences of it, or in rare cases the things that lead up to it. For Metal Gear specifically we have the Patriots who wanna control everyone with nanomachines, the fucky vocal chord virus/parasite that kills you if you speak a language which is an easy path to racism, multiple variants of mobile platforms that launch ICBMs and can skedaddle before being hit back so your nation has pretend to be third country and never get nuked back capability, also dont forget the idpol topics like which brother is better, the one who gives no fucks about who he is or the one that got the better genome but is worried about who he (or she? or they?) is? and what were Snake and Kaz doing in that box on the beach while only in their undies?and if i really need to spell it out, this post is supposed to be sarcastic and a joke.
Retarded culture war shitflinging aside, what's your favorite dice indie game? Can be roguelite or not, just as long as it features dice as a main mechanic. Played the shit out of Slice and Dice and want more.
>>567528243>>567528548>>567528909Can you define "political" like I'm an inbred moron? I'm reading and I'm not understanding.

>>567528243>we live in a political worldCommie freak
>>567529309I have the perfect screencap for this
>>567529220Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous
>>567529309The definition would not be all that useful because pretty much nobody is using it according to the definitions of the word.But, most commonly, people are using it to mean "contentious real life social topics".Examples in gaming that usually elicit this response from people are things like pronouns, transexual surgery scars, changing the sex titles from male and female to "type 1/A" and "type 2/B", hamfistedly altering established in-universe politics or even natural laws to more closely parallel current real life politics, etc.

>>567530035You're like a parody of a real person
>>567531034Contentious topics are often not contentious everywhere. I remember there was backlash from a group of Koreans when Limbus Company added a skin of a character in a wetsuit instead of a bikini. They thought it was because the devs were feminists who hated men. Is that political?
>>567533304You're on to something, I see people very often bringing up Wuk Lamat, a character from Final Fantasy XIV, and claim that she's trans. I still don't get why.
>>567532472The first vermintide game(specifically not the second one) did that in a very limited way as a side thing for a loot minigame.And uhhhhh blood bowl? The video game, but I only played the second one.
>>567533982How's Blood Bowl? I only ever played Chaos League.
>>567532472That sounds like a really fun idea for a game actually, if done well.
>>567533304>Is that political?Evidently it is in korea.
>>567534147I assume it's fun for people who enjoy fighting RNG. Never really got to the point of enjoying it besides the one time I played it with my dad and experienced him lose to dice that seemingly had a personal vendetta against him.
>>567533397Having never played FF XIV myself, I'd wager a guess that it's the same situation as pretty much all these other ones: people projecting their own experiences and viewpoints on the media rather than actually looking at the media. In my example, wetsuits were (are?) apparently a common way to censor sexualized designs in Korea, so people there have a stronger reaction to them and associate the use with radfems. Whereas everywhere else people are just confused about what the fuck they're going on about. I doubt anyone at PM decided "let's cover up this girl in a wetsuit to taunt the Koreans", but that's how it was perceived. The artist they ended up firing didn't even work on the character that people got mad about, and she was only singled out for old retweets before she ever started working at the company. I think a similar thing happens in other cases, where certain groups act in certain ways because of their own experience, but when you zoom out a bit, those actions are bizarre.
>>567533982Bloodbowl doesn't let you customize the dice, some player skills let you reroll or treat certain results differently but the dice remain the same (for block dice: two arrow results, one defender down, one defender down unless they have dodge, one both players down unless they have block, one attacker down skull. for other dice its a basic d6 or 2d6 like for armor break rolls)>>567534147pretty good, actually, BB2 is currently cheapest with the most content (somehow) but the balance is a few updates behind the IRL version, though that doesn't matter much as the important thing is how you upgrade the team, not which one starts off the best. just be mindful of the turnovers and how they force any optimization-minded player to stop having fun and do things on a tight schedule of least likely to turnover to most likely to turnover.
>>567534331So you can acknowledge that "political" can vary across borders, it's not a huge leap to see that "political" can vary across demographics too. If you have no issue with Koreans calling something political, why would you have issue with X or Y group calling something political even when you don't consider it to be?
>>567534636Now that worries me, I hate RNG.>>567534720What's a turnover?
When the french blogposter is away, you can bait anons by dangling whatever woke vidya you happen to come up with. This way you will ensure that the general doesn't die while you are either sleeping or wage slaving.
>>567534981Dice are just little RNG cubes.
>>567535010I guess I can start another DE run and post about it
>>567534701>The artist they ended up firing didn't even work on the character that people got mad about, and she was only singled out for old retweets before she ever started working at the companyWow, that's horrible.
>>567534897>why would you have issue with X or Y group calling something political even when you don't consider it to be?Because it is simply the case that not literally everything will be a political issue.
https://youtu.be/l4i51b8ZS-4?t=83
>>567533397>>567534701That is because Wuk Lamat, in the NA release, is voiced by a transsexual who is a big internet archivist. Somehow that means Wuk Lamat and the entire game are bad too.
>>567535514You (presumably) didn't know about the controversy I talked about beforehand and wouldn't have considered it a political issue. Why are you so sure that the topic you're thinking about now can't be political? The LC devs didn't think their decisions were political, but a part of their audience disagreed. Maybe you don't think a particular game is political, but maybe a part of your "audience" disagrees. You're not going to find a single definition that encompasses every different person's viewpoint, so how can you say for sure something is or isn't political?
>>567534981>>What's a turnover?in foobawl, when you fail to advance 10 yards within 4 downs your opponents pick up the ball with scrimmage at exactly the yard line you were at. Bloodbowl doesnt have yard lines but it does have a lot of scrimmage, so they changed the rule in the adaptation from sport to tabletop.Basically, when one of your players fucks up on a die roll (fail to grab/toss/catch the ball, get KO'd when they're the ones blocking, fail to dodge out of the opps tackle zone, and fail the 1/6 chance "Go for it" roll to move an extra square), your entire turn is over. So if you fail on first action of the turn, well tough shit you aint got the rest of a turn anymore. Sure, you can try to burn a team reroll to try the dice again, but if you were doing something improbable it won't really save you. This mechanic in theory forces coaches to think about positioning and turn order, and in practice I sometimes found it annoying and sometimes my opponents found it annoying so i guess it balances out? i'm by no means good at the game or super into it but i can see the appeal. I'm making a note of it because the BB2 videogame tutorial doesn't have turnovers turned on in the first few matches, so it teaches you wrong, presumably as a joke.

Worst part of this game is the inventory/encumbrance. Keep in mind the gameplay loop is survivalcraft. You're going out and gathering raw resources to craft and refine into new resources a lot. The game limits you to 20 items. Not 20 per stack, not 20kg, just 20 items. Doesn't matter if its a log or a blueberry, you're only carrying 20 unless you're prepared to walk the most boring and painfully long 200m of your life. I know what you're thinking, "But, Anon, you've got the van. Just drive it to where you're collecting resources and dump them in it." But there's a lot of areas that are foot traffic only, and there are a lot of resources there. So, you're stuck running back and forth a bunch of time or making another hellwalk. Shit sucks.
>>567536462Because you're never ever ever ever going to find someone that sees some random cup of liquid in the background visible for three frames and thinks it's a political decision that the cup contained exactly as much liquid as it did.There are things in games that have never been viewed as political and never will be because they have no connection to any current or future contentious social topics anywhere, and saying "but they might be political to someone somewhere someday" is like saying "an actual living real life unicorn might materialize in earth's orbit one day".Even aside from the fact that not literally everything can be a political topic, I assume you would know I'm mainly referring to the broader digital culture we interact with due to existing within every day, and not what people are talking about in chinese society or whatever that has next to zero crossover with broader western english speaking digital society.

>>567533304>>567534701>>567535485man, this brings back memories.It was an overlap of korean gender war shit with gacha mental illness culture. The artist made made multiple scenes in the game. After they found her old tweets, they went full schizo mode and started accusing her of inserting the pinch symbol in her art (I mean, it was just hands with thumbs and index fingers, so it was plausible enough for them).This whole thing also happened in the context where PM had, just months prior, made changes to the game economy (new upgrade lvl) that made harder to max units and PM kept delaying content. PM games also never appealed to coomers like other gacha games, they had a distinctive artstyle with mostly respectable, non coomer designs, and they had a good balance of male and female characters, very different of the 100% generic anime waifubait shit that is the norm with these games. PM had made a summer event that was almost a satire of the summer event of others games: the characters had to fight trash monsters on a polluted beach. While other games were getting their waifus in lewd cash bait bikinis and sunny beaches, PM had THE waifubait character of their game in that black diving suit.There was protests in korea, they even hired trucks with signs to stand before the company building. Game was review bombed on steam. Really wild.Its really a shame they became a gacha company.
>>567568286I'm a bit confused as to why the pinch gesture is rude in Korea. Something about penis size?
>>567568279I FUCKING LOST CUZ ONE OF HIS RETARDED MOOKS REVIVED HIM INSTANTLY AFTER HE DIED You can't make this shit up. God, what a PIECE OF SHIT fight. Hire me right fucking now. I will fix your awful game design. ascension HE SAYS HONOURABUUU DUELTHAT MEANS NO SPELLS GLOBALLY Fucking retards
>>567569017Wait WAITI'm still alive. Can I win?
>>567569017I can't even tell what's going on here.
>>567568651Its probably better if you just read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MegaliaI am not an expert in these matters (I am not from there, I just played some games), but it seems it started as a way to mock penis size and got linked to hate groups/hate movements, so it became about more than that.
>>567568234Yeah. I'm only about an hour in.
>>567569349>In December 2015, moderators on Megalian.com banned homophobic posts that targeted gay men. This led the majority of its users to leave for other forums, most prominently the website WOMAD. Although some South Korean feminists continued to identify with Megalia, Megalian.com and the Megalia Facebook groups lost their importance as online hubs and eventually shut downJesus christ. How the fuck do you go from defending women to harassing people who just happen to enjoy a dick in their ass?
>>567569163GET FUCKED.
>>567569736"It has personality".
We finally made it, chat.
>>567569861Check out this sexy bitch as a palette cleanser from that crude design. I'm off to get infinity rare skins nows.

How's Mortal Sin? Watched a video about it, Pirate looks fun.
>>567569682>how do you go from this to thatWhat's the difference, really? Both are obsessive behaviors likely arising from similar developmental issues.But in Worst Korea's context, it's all just misandry taken to bizarre extremes. They have somehow driven themselves into even more insanely divided state than Burgeristan.
>>567570896It's possible? Burgeristan legit has people defend a pedophile, just to "own the libs".Blah, let's just stop here, this stupidity is going to give me a headache. So, about Mortal Sin, should I try it? I'm more of a FPS shooter, and Borderlands 2 was the only FPS/RPG game I played, and it was shit.
Alright, so let me recap some of the free remakes floating around:>Rayman RedemptionPC port/remake of Rayman, with more world, more story, and unlimited lives.>Timesplitters RewindPC remake of Timesplitters, the Gamecube game, currently in early access with just TS1's levels available.Anything else?Underspace doesn't count, it's not free, and it's not a remake. Even if it's Freelancer but vastly improved.
>>567572265>Even if it's Freelancer but vastly improved.But it's not Freelancer. Improvement is debatable too.If your standards are that loose, you might as well count Endless Sky and naev as Escape Velocity "remakes".
>>567572591Well, Underspace works on my PC, and Freelancer doesn't, so if you don't consider that an improvement, I don't know what to tell you.
>>567572265Manic Miners, a remake of the Win98 game Rock Raiders
>>567572789No no, that's exactly what's a high priority for me. Games that actually work.See, Freelancer has worked on every single computer I've played it on for decades now. Friends' computers. Operating systems from I don't even remember, 98 or ME? to 11. Local multiplayer worked flawlessly. Mods and servers, everything just works. There's a dedicated, smart community taking good care of the game long after its official master servers closed.Underspace, however, doesn't. Turns out games made by big companies actually work and stand the test of the time, whereas indie unity slop has a good chance of not working right even during its heyday in its intended software environment.
>>567573464Lucky you, it's the opposite for me. Rise of Legends, Freelancer, none of these games work on my PC.I had to pirate Rise of Legends to get it to work, because otherwise it'd try to update, fail to contact the server, crash, and uninstall itself.
>>567570757I've only played for a couple hours but it's fun. Great art. Don't get it if you don't like combo games.
>>567574441"Combo games"? What do you mean?
>>567522182Heh, welcome to the club... Maybe one day the devs will get the memo before ending up bankrupt or working for China.
>>567574514Games that rely on doing combos to get the most out of them and be effective on combat. Think Devil May Cry, Ninja Gaiden.
>>567575357Never played any of these, but I think I remember a doom wad that worked like that, you had to alternate left clicks and right clicks for special attacks.
>>567575482In Mortal Sin you have different moves. Attack, dash, kick, special. There are different moves that can only be made by chaining those together into combos. If you just attack attack attack it'll eventually become ineffective. So you want to keep moving and chaining combos to get your score up and to do more damage. It's fun so far. I fucking suck at it.
>>567572591>Improvement is debatable too.It's definitely an improvement by the simple fact that it has manual docking and a ship garage.
>>567576193I literally never docked inside, in Underspace.
>>567576634Yeah. It's way smoother then having to wait for the autopilot, especially in most FL mods where the stations are too big.
What's a game that gives a serious sense of isolation?
>>567577461Alien Isolation
>>567576193Freelancer's problem is that it's insanely basic and you start to realize it after a while.
>>567577585Played it to death and got the platinum. Great game. Can't believe they're making a sequel.
>>567573015Is this like a lego mod for Dawn of War or something? Cute.
>>567578021Nah it's a resource gathering game. Not much combat and mostly focused on building basis and mining. It has a neat feature where you can take control of individual units in first person, and also where your miners can be leveled up and trained and they retain those skills between missions.
>>567578021>remake of the Win98 game>mod for Dawn of Warbruh
>>567577724It's got as much variety as your average ubisoft game.
>>567570534>Congrats, you can now play as a hobbo.I mainly did it for the skins lol, but I clearly misunderstood the reward. Here I thought it meant you guaranteed get a skin for every new encounter, when in reality it was just 100% better than the original pitiful drop rate. Now I'm considering what to do next. Either I get into a new game, or I go on an autistic Dumpling catching quest, and then make an optimized Dumpling team. Or maybe even both.
>>567578873Are you saying that's like it's a good thing or a bad thing?
>>567578873>UbisoftThe opposite of MeStraightHard.
>>567579553Honestly if it had come out 10 years later it'd be a hit.
asking about Hollow KnightI got to the part where I could "challenge" a trio but only fought against one of them, after I died and was on the runback, an NPC appeared and told me I should go some place and upgrade my nailbut I think I've checked everywhere that I can so far?I forgot what the NPC told methis is a bit after the mantis village
>>567573015Based
>>567580870its been years, but have you explored the city of tears yet? from what I remember there is a house to the west of the city of tears. Go down to the bottom, to the streets and then left, in the direction of the fungal wastes, or something like that. I don't remember if you need to defeat the mantis village boss to get there, I assume not.
>>567576948No, I mean. The dock hitbox is bigger than the hangar, so you can dock by flying too close.
>>567583573That was the case in FL in mods too, since it wouldn't distinguish between mooring points and docking points.
>>567586374FL had mods?
>>567587894Freelancer had tons of mods.
>>567588039Last time it worked on my computer was before we had internet.
>>567588237There were a lot of mods. There's an HD mod now, a really good star wars mod that ended up shutting down, and then a big autistic roleplaying one. It's still really limited in what you can add though. There's like a Russian one that pushes it to its limits and it's still fairly basic.
>>567587894>>567588039Correction: It HAS mods, even active servers to this day.
>>567589574Why is it always the Russians that have the best, most broken mods? I've been tempted to reinstall HoMM III very often just to check their mods.
>>567589705They have to make their games last really long. They made a whole live musical for Morrowind.
>>567589839a whatAnd kinda makes sense, when you can only buy one game per year, you want it to last.
>>567589705Because existence in Russia is as miserable as it gets, more talented people are channeled into escapist internet hobbies.>what if you took people like them and gave them a good life?That's how you get Finnish indie games.

i think 250ton drymass shallows rallying should be a more popular discipline
>>567591764That trajectory predictor is kinda neat. I've never seen that UI package, I guess the game has gotten some new content since I last played ages ago.
Chinatown wars was one of the best gta game and the only bad thing about it is ironically the story and cutscenes. The drug dealing side activity was fun if a bit simple, the game only required you to get bronze medals to get 100% and gold medals were there simply for the challenge and some small rewards in some activities.
>>567592086it's a performance autopilot package with all the thruster optimizations and FBW. the only thing its really missing is the firing solution display, otherwide it would've easily been the best in the game
>download game>open it>see /ProjectName_BurstDebugInformation_DoNotShip/This is how you know you're getting into a high quality product
>>567593130actually quite useful for modding because burst is black bytecode sorcery
>>567593252What for? It's just a debug file with some info about the developer's environment like compiler flags and file paths.I'm not a modder but as far as I can tell none of that matters. You can just read and edit the game assembly with dnspy with usual. All symbols are present too. Patching it with bepinex/harmony should work too right?
Giving nitro gen omega a try. Animations and art style are charming enough but I'm not 100% sold on the timeline style battle system yet. I assume once I actually start fighting harder enemies and getting more parts/skills that I'll have a hell of a lot less dead turns for some of my crewmembers. Also kinda wish there was more explanation for keywords sometimes the pop-up just doesn't show up
>>567594206Code Lyoko-looking cunts.

>>567590219bet she fucked like an animal
>>567594432
>>567594206>>567594432Opened the image and thought the same. I wonder if it's just the big head + tiny body or there is also something about the face features/proportions, as it's mainly Brown-chan and Red-chan.
>>567594432>>567599594Considering the devs are european and self-describe the art-style as anime/shonen anime I get the feeling it contributed to the artstyle at least somewhat. Granted everyone in the game uses the same character creator so it also helps keep all characters' ages ambiguously young. Which is nice when the NPCs in town are all doom and gloom telling you about how their wife and kids got blown up by a cannon and then 5 min later your crew is bonding over karaoke and DDR
>>567591764Zipping through he belts at max speeds is so fun honestly, especially when the you're-going-fast music kicks in.I remember saving money by having myself being shot into the outer ring and then fly halfway through it by myself debatable if the money I saved on the launch wasn't lost on fuel, but it was fun and that's what matters
>>567580870>>567582373You need a movement upgrade to get to the city, but I'm pretty sure you get it before fighting the mantis boss.
>get trailer for an indie recommended on YouTube>looks interesting, I should wishlist it>reviews mixed or negativeevery time man
>>567606925Mixed could mean polarizing and not bad. You could be in the pro camp.
Kingdom Cum studio confirmed they are working on a Middle Earth gay sex simulator. Thoughts?
>>567609052Don't care about what some megacorp puppet is doing.
>>567606925I find a lot of the negative Steam reviews don't address the game itself. Half the time it seems the complaints are regarding difficulty. I saw one the other day where the reviewer was bitching about that new cruise ship virus.
Imagine a game where you play as a skeleton. You start small, maybe you're unearthed by graverobbers or maybe you dig yourself free somehow after your coffin gets struck by lightning or an earthquake or something. You want revenge? Against whom? Who cares? As you continue you can defeat other skeletons (?) and gain their bones. This shin bone might give kick strength, or the new skull plate might make it so you can use your head to bash open locks instead of picking them. There is a fucking killer soundtrack and you can headbang clackclackclack right along to it. What's the gameplay like?
Help, I have the Dutch colony music stuck in my head on repeat.
>>567612731Also you can't speak, only that rasping "rrrhhhhhh" that skeletons do (think the Morrowind skeleton sound). There have to be powerups obviously. Maybe your golden coins are calcium supplements or something. The levels are varied but also some wacky ones. Graveyard (obviously), amusement park, tar pits, gemstone mines. And all the while you're meeting NPCs that don't seem to understand you're a skeleton and are talking your ear off (lol), all the while you're standing there like a mute unable to say anything. The weapons have to be cool, probably some melee ones and up and up until you are toting around a cannon off a pirate ship or something. I don't know if you can jump or not. But the boss fights could be stuff that plagued you in your life before your death (whatever happened there), and game has to have a good bit of difficulty because a skeleton really doesn't have much strength obviously, at least in the beginning. Ideas?
>>567612731>What's the gameplay like?Very barebones.
>>567614135
>>567612731all limbs have health but there is no way to heal and are expected to extract killed enemy bones and hotswap them as needed, bones from different enemy have different stats and attack? It sounds like a mess to design and make, but my uncreative ass can't come up with any other way to make being a skeletons matter, and it's probably already been done with robots
>>567614135You will be the first poor soul our PC takes revenge on. What bone will he claim from you, I wonder? (Don't say it.) Another point of contention: should a skeleton have access to magic? Maybe there should be a class system. Obviously skeletons can become liches with enough training (how much?), but what are some other cool classes? Berserker, Pirate/Swashbuckler, Public Nuisance, Seer?>>567615890Interesting! Could be that as you lose (or gain) bones it changes the gameplay. If you get decapitated you can't rasp/clack anymore, one leg means you hop along (peg leg?), missing ribs you are less susceptible to attack (less surface area)?
>>567606925This >>567611289, but also for positive reviews. I found a lot of games with overwhelmingly positive rating despite being complete dogshit. EA games with zero content praised for their potential or their art style or political agenda or just reviewers thinking they are funny.Ultimately you should always read the reviews, both good and bad, before deciding on a game.
New Exanima update
This morning I saw people from my country argue that "maho shojo ni akogarete" and "made in abyss" were cp and should be banned from our country. I don't know why this time it struck a nerve. I'm not angry or annoyed but instead I feel some kind of dread. Like a very profound personal attack. Not sure why, I don't even watch either of them. I know it's stupid and unimportant, but this has been on the back of my mind the entire day and I needed to let it out.

Thoughts on Pacific Drive?
>>567629240It's 30 euros and has a ton of dlcs.
>>567609052>>567611289Yeah, I usually skim through the negative reviews to make sure. Though in the most recent example it's always been a mix of shit performance, buggynes and lack of content.Though sometimes it's also stuff like "the newest patch ruined the game" which makes me wonder if I'll even notice, as someone who hasn't played the game before.>>567617298I don't remember which game it was but I recently saw a game that just came out already have tons of positive reviews. Like how can anyone even make that call after barely playing?
>>567630761meant for >>567608730
>>567612731Gameplay:Option 1: mountain blade like game, you raise an army of skellies (kinda like a lich) and fight your way to make your own faction.Option 2: graveward keeper like game, you tend to your farm or graveward, interact with the townsfolk and to try to make a living.Option 3: crpgOption 4: open world survival craftingSettings:1 - medieval low fantasy world2 - xxi century world3 - post apocalypse world where ALL humans are dead. Maybe there are robots like i nier, maybe aliens, maybe there is nothing but animals, zombies or giant cockroaches that survived a nuclear holocaust.4 - sci fi like warhammer 40k or something
>>567629240Hard to say. I played it on release, had fun, but never finished.The idea is nice and upgrading the car is fun. I couldn't care less for the stories and characters (they're only voices on your radio which might even be for the better) but they felt easy to ignore.Even though it has some in game justification, I wasn't a fan of the maps being randomly generated. Some of the story locations seem to be handcrafted for the most part and those were my favorites. Also the radio music is a good time
Dosh "/egg/man" Doshington and /indie/'s favorite furry torture porn game in the same video.What is this, a crossover episode?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Iyc1flr-2Z8
>>567612731Sounds like cogmind but without the robots
>>567631002O just had an idea, what if ALL life on the planet was dead? There no humans, no robots, no animals, no undead, nothing living to interact with, only rocks, old buildings and dead objects.Its a open world survival craft game with base building and exploration, but the skelly player just wanders through ruins reflecting about humanity past and his own solitude (like in the The Longing).
>>567631430hehe, I've just said that >>567631025
>>567632009Sounds Grim
>>567632752i am a sad lonely person
>>567609052Sounds cool actually.One of my first thoughts when playing KCD was that I'd love to see what the devs (or someone copying them) would do in a different time period or setting. Wish it would be something original and not a preestablished franchise like lotr, but oh well
>>567632570>Click the link>It's all curse crackers>"Curse crackers is an /egg/ game because I want to run a train on Belle."It really is a crossover episode huh...
>>567633827>>567632570I wish we had a dedicated Belle poster...
>>567631332Yeah, the intro drive was kino. Just did the car repair turtorial at Oppy's and about to head out on my first run. Praying because thats all thats keeping 2 of my tyres on atm. Seems neat. STALKER but with a mad max station wagon.
>>567627904There she is, the ultimate of the unique ships. Some day I'll own this thing and max upgrade it, but that's a long road.
>>567634542Me too.
>>567635276For now though I've just unlocked the office of the big leagues. They can do a fuckton for me and I can get an insane amount of benefits out of all this, but it's going to cost me a fuckton of money and they will only see me by appointment once per month. I'll have to wait until the 23rd of December (it's November rn) to use their services and I'd better hope I'd earned enough by then to actually afford it.
>>567632570it's going to summon one of the french bipolar shcizos nowwhich is a shame
>>567635623Holy shit this thing is insane, for frame of reference I got a unique spyglass from the cursed ghost ship and that was 666 yards and 15%. I feel like I've just sequence broken to get my hands on an upgrade this massive.
>the enemy is made of pies
There is a type of lizard that squirts toxic blood from its eyes and a type of primate that has poisonous elbows.Fuck, why do we need imaginary creatures in survival games? Just expand on the freaks we have in real life.
>>567639630>pies can also be killed using the "Kill Spy" MissionThis PIE is a SPY!
>>567634740>STALKER but with a mad max station wagonHonestly that would be one of my dream games. Stalker, but with a map big enough that you need a car to get from location to location that also doubles as a mobile base.Kind of like those Stalker freeplay mods but your vehicles being part of the skill progression.
>>567641956I was kinda disappointed because you don't get to do long comfy drives and just fast travel to the areas
Actual Art Degree and Whompty-Dompty-Dom Center feel kinda broken.I don't think I've ever had so many skill points to spend and I'm only at the end of Day 3.
>>567642452Yeah, I'm with you on this one. Maybe they thought it would get tedious after a while since you do grind out quite a few levels to get all the resources you need. Maybe they even tried it out in playtesting.I vaguely remember there were these transition levels you would drive through, I wish those were a bit longer. Or just have the whole thing be a connected open world, but at that point we're talking about a completely different game, probably with a bigger dev team

>>567631430>>567645528I didn't know dosh swang that way, but that's fairly interesting.
>>567645264Well, when planning routes that are further away you get to cruise through the nodes on the map inbetween them. So theres that at least.
>>567375228I finally played through the Mass Effect trilogy after nearly two decades and man, people back in the day were not exaggerating about that shitty ending.>>567437680I still get that feeling pretty often. I try not to really look into new stuff or review scores and I download a lot of even mildly interesting looking things just to give them a try. It isn't quite the same as the old days but close enough and has resulted in finding the occasional gem.Speaking of which I need to get around to playing that Curse Crackers game that some anons here bring up every now and then since I spent like three bucks on it.>>567448047That used to work for me but now it mostly shows me triple A games, highly technical games that I am not interested in like that space sims a lot of anons seem to like and hentai games for some reason instead of things that I might actually want to play.
>>567650331>people back in the day were not exaggerating about that shitty endingI still haven't seen it, because I remember there was some shitty tie in with the multiplayer which was surprisingly fun to play, actually ...god the era where everything needed a shitty multiplayer bolted on was weird something along the lines of you wanting to max out the multiplayer meter before doing the ending? I can't recall.So I started playing multiplayer until I lost interest in the game and never finished it.Maybe I should...play the games back to back maybe
>>567650331>I try not to really look into new stuff or review scoresAlso I'm totally with you. I'm a bit of an anti-spoiler radical. Everything counts as spoiler to me I remember being even worse as a teenager, where I got genuinely upset at someone, when they told me the name of a character for example and I want to go in as blind as possible. But as you said it's not quite the same, you still have some concept of what the game is through tags or hearsay ...and probably just being exposed to more games. Playing your very first RTS or RPG just hits different when you have no prior knowledge of the genre even existing.
>>567537936I replayed Escape Velocity Nova, last time was at least 20 years ago. I'd say it's still pretty decent. Surprisingly there's still some kind of community. Endless Sky seems to be one of the spiritual successors, on one hand it's still in beta since 2015, on the other hand it's free and recently updated.>>567408901Good and soundtrack is great>>567529220I think the only dice game I played is Dicey Dungeon, but it was pretty fun

>>567652051It apparently used to lock you out of one or two of the ending variations unless you played the multiplayer to gain enough war assets but they fixed it for the recent collected release. I am going to level with you though. They all suck. In a lot of ways the endings you have to unlock are some of the worst ones.Still while each game has their weird eccentricities the trilogy itself is pretty damn great until the last twenty minutes.
>>567652051You didn't actually need multiplayer to get all the endings.If I remember right you had to build up your military power for the final battle and multiplayer contributed to that. You could do it purely in single player, but you had to do (almost?) all the side quests.
>>567660106They didn't give you enough to get the happier variation of the destroy ending without multiplayer in the original release.
I think I'm gonna be winding down my Siralim playthrough finally. Pretty sure I've done everything there is to do outside of the turbo grindy stuff and my team is basically perfect. maybe it could be improved like .9% if I found a few god tier nether stones, but meh. I was gonna try for a Dumpling team but the grind is simply too much. Might as well get back into Old School Runescape if that's the way it's gonna be.
>>567659984>I am going to level with you though. They all suck.Yeah, I remember people being very vocal about it. But I never was much of a Mass Effect fan myself I think I didn't even play the first two games, I can't quite remember.
>>567662992Also these occasional 20 minute infinite combos against False Gods are kinda getting to be a little much.
>>567663398Last post was 8 minutes ago and it's still going. You can't make this up.
>>567662992>outside of the turbo grindy stuffThere's even more turbo grindy stuff? Then wtf was everything until now

>>567573464>Turns out games made by big companies actually workFucking lmao
>>567636934Managed to buy some nigs, will be able to super easily trade this lot for several hundred Doubloons.>>567653752Yeah, you basically start the game without even a ship or the funds to buy one, you spend the tutorial running around the starting island doing odd jobs so you can afford the deposit (not full payment, unless you do really well) for a basic bitch Sloop to get started with. It's fun.
>>567669175Cyberpunk, like every single Bethesda game. Remember the disaster that was... I mean like, multiple assassin's creeds? Remember how half these big company games you can't play anymore because they shut the servers down?Freelancer, his example, didn't even work on Windows for the longest time. It's only Windows 10 and later that you can play it without issue. It wouldn't even work normally because Microsoft shut the servers down and the fans managed to mod in a replacement.
>>567669175I mean, yeah? I don't know how bad AAA is these days but indies are nowhere near 00s AAA games in terms of software engineering quality.Doesn't matter if it's the latest 2026 noname unity slop or 1996 vogelware, indies from any era are generally poorly put together. There are very few exceptions to this, but they tend to be amazing like Factorio.
>>567672034>I don't know how bad AAA is these dayYeah that much is fucking obvious. Also AAA games back in the oughts had a lot of problems, you've just generally forgotten about all of them because you only remember the handful of good ones.
>>567672224>you only remember the handful of good ones.And I'm comparing them to the handful of good indie ones.But no, I do remember the software engineering related problems better than you think. It's always been a close topic for me. But the thing is, the worst of them can be summarized with one word: DRM. I can't fault the game programmers for that.Remember safedisc? Probably the worst malware any of us ever had on our computers.
>go for a walk>come back>see thisThe devs might need to fix their game so this doesn't ever happen. I'm on turbo mode and everything too. There needs to be a command to skip to the end of a sequence when a combo has obviously gone on long enough. Like 15 loops? Ok, you can hit the magic command to resolve this. It's still going as a type BTW.
>>567673085Remember Spore? Remember fucking Blinx the Time Sweeper that was supposed to launch Xbox's mascot series shit?

>>567631002Option 1 is literally the bannerlord warhammer fantasy mod, if you play as a vampire count/sylvanian. It was very promising back when I tried it a year or so ago, iirc dwarf and their holds were to be the next adidition. It was nice, had working magic system (which is broken af and fun to use) and you can even work as a soldier if you want to roleplay a lowly skeleton or a subservient wight king, and the factions ai arent super retarded when it come to sieging ie they will try to gain enemy castles and town near their border rather than taking a random one weeks of travel into enemy territory.
>>567667149Absolutely disgusting. We need Wayward Realms to come out and mog all these trashy open world slop RPGs.
>>567681152I'm looking forward to play a dwarf and retake Khâzad Dûm by myself.

Don't know anywhere else to discuss it, since I imagine any other site would be irritating, but I finished playing In Stars and Time today. It was overall a good experience, even with how pozzed it was. I felt most of that shit could be overlooked by the actual personalities of the characters being in the forefront, and some of it basically just being engrained in the culture and world-building of the game. Wouldn't blame anyone for finding it irritating though. Liked basically the entire cast (and wanted to bang Odile), and thought the story was great, even though I feel it was easy to figure out the mystery and understand where things were going
>>567681152>We need [trashy open world slop RPG] to come out and mog all these trashy open world slop RPGs.Uh huh.
>>567683469The only one I wanted to bang was Siffrin.Also, I get you, I wanted to check the game myself, but the use of pronouns just turned me away. I'm fine with getting on with the times and not acting like a boomer, but I just can't deal with pronouns, I feel like I'm being mocked whenever they're brought up.
how the 2nd map, the island one, in conan exiles? I heard it was worse than the OG map.

>>567656801Literally did nothing wrong and I'm tired of Bethesda insisting otherwise after Morrowind.
>>567513271>LunacidThe pronoun shit kind of pisses me off. Not because I particularly care since they aren't even used after you pick them as far as I can tell but because doing shit like that as an act of protest actively poisons discussion for all of the developer's games.Now any time time Spooky's or LiV come up there is a big chance that it will turn into a bitch fit about pronouns and that blows.

We complain about the Chinese a lot but Jesus the Koreans are just out there. They literally have meltdowns over the finger pinching hand sign.
I get that it's more immersive to take the healing items out of the bag but it would be nice to be able to just heal yourself without physically having to take a single piece of dressing out
>>567713578you can do that, just press r while holding the item in your cursor
>>567713902>while holding the item in your cursorsee, it's in my bagthat's the thing, do I not have to take it out to use it every time?
>>567714207you don't have to put it into your inventory slot that's outside of your bag (like your hand), so you're not taking it out, it stays in the container as is but you can use itotherwise the friction is intentional because there are events in game that directly mess up your ability to quickly and precisely navigate menuesand knowing the location of every single item is also an inventory management skillcheck during an emergency
>>567714324right yes so basically no because crafting can be done through bags etcwhat you're saying is I should keep my medical items available at all times, at least bandages, and everything else gets in the bagworks
>>567696320I'd argue Bethesda lost more
>>567690379This reads like an AI being told to quote dagoth ur and hallucinating half of it. It's somewhat right but some words are missing or wrong.
So, there's this game, it's a weird mix between a Survivors-like, and a rougelite. Very, very lite, since it takes from Streets of Rogue/Risk of Rain with a meta progression.You play as a demilich who was betrayed by his body (don't ask), and you try to escape from what is basically a Tzimiscze summer camp.
Annoying enough, it rewards putting all your eggs in the same basket, instead of using diversity, since if you have enough units of a certain style, you unlock an "oath", with different bonuses.I get going specialist is on par with roguelikes, but my natural instinct is to be as versatile as possible, and this game challenges me.
>>567674406I could never decide if I wanted to build one jack of all trades car, or have a bunch of spare parts that I would put on and off, especially for the damage resistances.Hell, maybe I should spin that game up again. also I played it during a rather emotionally devastating moment of my life so I'm afraid if it will bring back memories
>>567718560You should play it. It'll hurt, but eventually, it should pass.
>>567718281>>567717806Anon i'm going to rape you if you blogpost one more time without giving the name of the game
>>567718682Oh damn, I'm a total moron. Sorry, I think I said it, it's Skull Horde.Kinda difficult for me, but I suck at these games, so I turned off the timer so that the difficulty level is scaled to the level of the dungeon I'm in, and it's a lot easier now. There's still something oddly satisfying with building up your bony warband, through I'm annoyed that my plan to go full magic has been fucked up by the fact that no mage has been proposed for me to buy, and banishing all the other classes is costly.

>>567719318I watched that when I was 10... 12 years ago.
>>567719717>ZoomerWell it makes sense that you know literally nothing about the best Bethesda game and the community around it that persists and still makes memes about it to this day.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0HCId0XHDNs
>>567720224But we're not talking about Skyrim?
>>567719318God I miss this shit.Having a text to speech language model say something dumb or funny or sing a song in a video game character's or famous person's voice is funny for like 10 seconds for the absurdity of it and wears of very quickly.
Oh hey, Capital wearing the skin of Disco Elysium's mangled corpse has just released.I'm tempted to still play it eventually just to form my own opinion, but my hopes aren't high, especially being in the middle of a new DE run right now
>>567718673Do you have the DLC? If so, how is it. I'm honestly a bit torn between this and Voices of the Void ...or just getting back to my backlog
>>567720740I'm not that Anon. I'm just telling you to do your best to avoid associating bad memories to games.I associated Bram Stoker's Dracula to my mother's death, and I keep watching and rewatching it as if it'd bring her back.
>>567720903It's funny how the mind works. I was in the middle of Mewgenics and my cat went through a rough patch and got sick. I got very worried about her. I was playing the game and my team kept getting slaughtered and it made me stop. Haven't been back to it since. I'll play it again eventually. She's fine now.
Are the extra Shovel Knight campaigns any good?
>>567673693Maybe turn off animations and some other shit that increases time? Hold down 'confirm' button to increase speed even further? Showing damage/heal/buff numbers and names also slow downs, I'm 99%. Has been quite a while but I don't remember having any issues with it after adjusting the settings properly so the combat is allowed to go zoom zoom.>>567722234Yeah, the characters play quite differently from each other and the stages are tweaked for their moveset. It's definitely a fresh experience and not just 90% the same shit like some other games with different playable characters.
>>567721236That's why I suggest to get rid of that association quickly.
>>567720903>and I keep watching and rewatching it as if it'd bring her back.it's pretty good though
>>567723928Yes, it is. But she's dead. She won't come back. I won't revive her by watching more of the movie.
>>567723981yeah that's pretty fucking retarded of you
>>567717775No anon, YOU are hallucinating. You are seeing AI slop everywhere.
>>567674406Are you on the lowest settings? I don't remember the game looking this bad.
>>567697669Yes.

>>567690587To be fair, if he hadnt went full retard trying to become a pseudo gestalt hivemind with a sickness that make you an immortal zombie, most wouldnt have an issue with it except from the inevitable clash between the sixth house and the tribunal, which was already in its death throes. Like its one thing if a guy get betrayed unrightfully, its another when he start using bioweapons that mostly target peoples unrelated to the true culprits.

>>567720624I was going to recommend trying the demo first but they took it down, for understandable reasons. I too will someday play the rest of it but my expectations are not high.

>>567734656Not to mention I still have Esoteric Ebb in my backlog and who knows if Traveling at Night might not come out by then too
Playing through subnautica 2 and being really annoyed that I can't just kill the pests attacking me because "weapons bad" is a genuine developer opinion.
>>567737176not even little guy with a knife like in the first game?I get the decision to make bigger creatures basically unkillable, but it is what it is
>>567737404You cannot harm even the smallest of dangerous fish, those being a little smaller than a human, you are completely unarmed.You can kill the defenseless fish by picking them up and transmuting them into resources, but anything that attacks you is invincible.

Was doing great until layer 3 when I got down and I got swarmed by little cave buggers that would NOT leave me alone I tried to outrun them but they were fasterI killed most of them but I couldn't get the last two and they just kept eating me
>>567737694Gotta love those kind of arbitrary moral grandstanding, it show how shallow the devs take on things are and they never really bothered to think about how to seamlessly integrate it into the gameplay, instead it feel tacked on half haphazardly. You can tell the groundwork was already done when they started to implement these elements, and that the feeding mechanics were baked into the code too deep to be changed (or they didnt care enough to actually check what it would change from a gameplay perspective), causing the hilarious situation we now have. Where hurting a fish directly is immoral, yet sticking the same fish into a molecular blender to make a plastic bottle filled with water is considered acceptable.Make me want to get the game just to see if there is more of such things, and if its as bad as below zero. By that I dont mean the game inherently suck in term of gameplay (its basically the same as the first one), but the production process was all over the place and the entire original storyline was abandoned 3/4 of the way, with the Al-an side stuff becoming the main piece, and why your sister become barely relevant as time goes on (main plot was about finding the truth about what happened, and as more plot was added over time it became apparent her sister was in the wrong the entire time, so the devs writer couldnt really spin it in a positive way, notwithstanding peoples were critical of the narrative driven storyline since the first moment it was revealed as it clashed with the original game more immersive gameplay and story being told via environmental story telling). Is the second game story just as all over the place, or did the devs learn from their mistakes?
Time for another episode of "Does Any Game Fit This Extremely Specific Criteria?":>horror>adventure style game with puzzles (think RE puzzles but actually tough, if possible)>graphics don't matter (retro, modern, whatever)>first or third person, doesn't matter>not open world>not roguelite/like (have too many to play already)
>>567742991sorry we're closed, maybe
>>567742768I have not played through enough of the game and examined the text logs closely enough to judge the quality of the story. I don't know if enough of the game is done to do that in the first place.I do know that the in-game reason you aren't allowed to fabricate weapons is because "colonists mostly use weapons against other people", but the colonists end up making their own weapons and using them on each other anyway, so I'm not sure what the message regarding weapons is supposed to be at this point. It doesn't seem like they're trying to imply controlling weapons is pointless, but I'm not sure they would imply everyone then needs to live under complete totalitarian control that has total surveillance at all times to prevent such incidents.
>>567742991Bye Sweet Carole may be for your liking, but I have no idea if the game has any sort of complex puzzles, I just always assumed it was a point n click.

I am the official beta tester amongst other things for this game. It has a Kickstarter going on now, if you could help share it anywhere you think it might actually see any success, I'd really appreciate it since I really like my job and I don't want to lose it, which I might if this doesn't succeed.It is releasing on Steam for PC first, later it will be on Android and Apple phones and tablets. If it does well enough, it may also be ported to consoles like Nintendo Switch. We would also greatly appreciate it if you would wishlist it on Steam and consider leaving a review.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xiHRuj4OpBY
