Is it a “solved” game much like “Chess”?If things can occur the same way each time.
bot thread
>>12596176>everything i disagree with is a bot thread
>>12596184Not him but this is one fucking stupid thread.
Going guns akimbo on the original HOTD 1&2 feels so kino.
Iirc the textures on this game are still messed up in the one old emulator that runs it, so no it is not “solved”
This is by far the worst board on 4chan
>>12596174A lot of games play out the same way every time. That said, does THotD actually play out exactly the same every time, in terms of boss patterns? I've 1CC'd it on real hardware, but I still couldn't tell you if things like Hanged Man's bats always attack in the same pattern, or if Magician's energy bullets are always the same/if he always darts around the same way, etc. If you play THotD the real way with a lightgun and no reticle, a lot of the variability comes from your aiming consistency and trigger speed, which is generally going to be less consistent and precise than moving an aiming reticle with a mouse or D-pad.
>>12597082I miss when I used to enjoy coming here. It never should have extended beyond 5th gen.
I'll use this thread for something usefulWhat's the best way to play HotD2 on a PC these days? I know there's an actual PC port, but it's fucked in several ways on modern setups due to resolution, aspect ratio and mouse sensitivity reasonsIs emulating the Wii version the easiest way?
>>12597385Unironically, the best way is to play it in EmuVR, which lets you use light guns against a virtual CRT. Not the most appealing answer though.
>>12597473Yeah, I don't have a VR setup, though it does sound pretty nice for that purpose
>>12597082/ic/ is worse, a true cesspool that people only visit to bring others down
>>12596258Used to do that with Area 51. Died way quicker but it was hell of fun!
>>12597478Honestly a secondhand Quest 2 is pretty cheap and is great for /vr/ things:PC tetherless:>EmuVR>3DSen NES emulator>Half-Life 2 VRNative Quest ports:>Virtual Boy emulator>Half-Life VR>Tomb Raider VR>Duke Nukem 3D VR>Return to Castle Wolfenstein VR>Doom 3 VRI basically just use mine for /vr/ VR ports
>>12597385Dolphinbar + Wii emulator would work pretty well, and it's fairly cheap. Bonus points: you can use the dolphin bar + wii-mote on other light gun games. Alternatively, you could just buy a wii and hack it. Wii's are pretty cheap these days, and very easy to hack.
>>12596174Chess hasn't been solved yet.
>>12597082>>12597345/vr/ cares more about how you play games than if you actually play them. And if they do care about if you play them it's just goalpoast moving schizo-tier posts about insane definitions of "beating" a game.
>>12597385I 1cc's HOTD2 on this version and I dont think my trigger finger ever recovered.
>>12598325or if a game is 3d or not
>>12598325If you play in VR, you didn’t beat the game.
>>12596174Doesn't the game run demos when it idles?
>>12597082You've not explored this site much if you truly believe that
>>12599316Other boards like /b/ being inhabited by literal bots, have nothing on shit boards like this whose user base is made up of, literally retarded zoomers larping as people 10 years older for izaat
