>>4081228Most h-games on steam are sold censored with an off-site official patch to restore everything. It's the most reliable way to get past the dreaded Mary.
>>4081288>games on steam are sold censored with an off-site official patch to restore everythingWitcher 1 bros, our response?
>>4070160Monster Girl Dreams is pretty fun for a free game
>>4070160The only ones I really liked were black souls 1/2 and paradox, but I played them like 5 years ago
Which one should I play? Anywhere else I look online the preference is split 50/50 so I don't know which to pick.
>>4078042There is no such thing as "the original Dark Souls 2". It hadn't been finished, otherwise we would've had time travels and young bear seek seek lest.Instead there was the first release remake ("time travel" theme had been repurposed into "fading memory" theme).And there is SotFS, which is, basically, a mod for the remake of the unnreleased game.Original release version has proper colors and more or less proper lights - so you can see it is actually a sunset time, which is made to further show the "fading memory" theme.SotFS has more enemies, more appropriate placements, but also many new enemies, placed a-la knights from the first dark souls. It for some reason has much brighter lights and a green color filter in some locations, but it can be fixed with reshade.I'd recommend SotFS (with reshade) as none of editions are the original, while SotFS has better atmosphere.
>>4082901That'a because it is, in fact, Demon Souls 2 with Dark Souls being, in fact, represented only through "Gwyn and co's souls had been reborn as semi-random bosses" and other small whatnots. Feel of the game, its themes, its atmosphere - all is much closer to Demon Souls. I actually think, that it had been named DaS 2 instead of DeS 2 or even a standalone entry only because Dark Souls got so popular - just like with that one Zelda game (Majora's Mask iirc).
>>4082932People definitely like it without the Dark Souls name and with spazzy floppy anime ninja combat and bosses; that's what Elden Ring is.
>>4082901>while 3 is a great gameIt's fine, just like DS2 is fine, but nowhere close to great. Its levels are mostly mediocre and it's at odds with itself by trying to be both Dark Souls and Bloodborne at the same time.It's more combat-heavy than Dark Souls, but instead of adopting the fluid and expansive movesets of Bloodborne's trick weapons to make combat more fun, it regresses to the boring and limited ones from Dark Souls.It's got more build variety than Bloodborne, but instead of giving you the open-ended early game of DS1 and DS2 to let you get your build up and running quickly, it keeps the mostly linear progression of Bloodborne.
>>4083218While dark souls games have open maps with non linear progression they never truly execute that perfectly like metroidvanias do, i feel like they shouldve been strictly linear when thats what they already are anyways
The Greatest CRPG ever made.
>>4081629>more 40k slopIt could be the best game ever made and I still wouldn't touch this shit.
>>4082661u no like fascism?
>>4081629Just looking at the bland, Marvel-esque cover art tells me all I need to know. The game is a vile “product”, aimed at unfuckable men with disposable income. Avellone would have never approved this art for one of his games in 1999. Therefore, I won’t play “Rogue Trader”.
it's not even the greatest CRPG made by Owlcatits systems are so fucking bad that it's the only CRPG I've ever played that actively made me hate the process of leveling up.
>>4081629They nailed the athmosphere, but the combat is atrocious and it's twice as long as it should be.
Roguelikes are both RPG and Strategy Games.
>>4072589Rogue was originally distributed as a ROLE PLAYING GAMEJust cause you think your final faggotry animes are what role playing games are doesn't make it true.
>>4072598And roguelikes used to be games like rogueNow they're card games and random shit and you can't do anything about it
>>4072503Quasimorph isn't a roguelike...
>>4072601nta but retards being wrong in classifying games' genres was a thing since foreveractual rouglikes are rpgs
>>4072584Fuck off retard.
New Trailer (August)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87TNASkXOWQPrevious Trailer (June)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PH3ox5krci8It's hard to get excited when they're just showing us what we expected to see. There's nothing to talk about.Except for the fact that Rebirth never another "intergrade" DLC while we waited another 4 years.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N99VdWs-OfE>Rocket Town name drop>New Queen's Blood "saga" for RedThey're showing very little of Cloud, so I'm assuming they're still doing a mako poisoning segment.
>>4074444Basically this. I can´t take the expanded universe as anything more than glorified fanfiction, and not even good one at that. Literally everything they´ve ever tried to add detracts from the original experience. Sometimes less is more and simplicity just tops trying to over-explain things.
>>4067439April is still far. I thought it was going to be Feb or March.
>>4074444>>4080144I gather that closing your eyes and covering your ears in response to anything remotely scary is your go to response to problems. However, nothing he said there relies on stuff from the spooky scary compilation that you want to pretend doesnt exist.
>>4074444>on ePSXeJesus christ and I thought i had bad opinions. When did you stop emulating, fucking 2007?
warhammer blah blah 40K rogue trader or something editionI know turn based makes sense for this franchise, but real time with pause would've been more realistic, or you know a shooter rpg so we could actually enjoy the heavy guns?
>>4076016>I needed and wanted a paladin in the teamSo roll an actual paladin instead of some disgusting sorceress build with a nominal dip like every cookie cutter munchkin faggot who realized they could stack CHA and buff their savesYou might as well be playing fifth edition at that point, it’s just stupid cheese
>>4076155Alright, I do think the paladin levels dip was a disgrace.
>>4078316Redeem yourself, anon. I believe in you.
I feel like too much areas in this game was made with backtracking in mind.>What, you clear this first half of this cemetery dungeon? Very nice! Hope you prepare yourself for a sudden difficulty spike in form of getting swarmed by armies of invisible and invincible gigarapists that beat the shit out of your fighters despite their high armor/resistance that let them take essentially 0 damage from anything else in this location.Is og Ultima also designed like this? Really frustrating gameplay loop.
>>4078316what was even the point? the paladin ability you want is mark of justice which comes at level 11, in addition, you add paladin levels to damage rolls so you want as many of them as possible. The only really viable dips for paladins are like demonslayer ranger or mutagen fighter, and even that's arguably worse than just going 20 paladin straight.
Why does everyone glaze this game so much when its objectively weakest entry in the series?Yes it has the best visuals in the whole series so far but... thats it really.
>>4059934Persona only got good when they realized that your social links should provide you with actual gameplay benfits and not just stat boosts when you fuse personas. There's a reason 5 was the one that broke through to the mainstream.
>>4068928>There's a reason 5 was the one that broke through to the mainstream.Massive advertising budgets and reach? Literally EVERY series that had a new game during that time ended up with that game being "the best selling in the series history" it's not THAT much of a feat. Let's see if it carries over to 6
>>4062836Base 3R was akin to spending more money for a game that was a halfbaked middleman of 3P and FES with some P5isms. No, I dont care if you dislike the Answer or FEMC. It was the best chance they had to make a definitive P3 and they blew it and this is why I think its worse than P3P even if that one had to sacrifice a bunch of stuff to fit on the PSP's smaller disk.
>>4069422NTA, but hating P3R for not being the definitive version it should have been is valid.Now, to say that P3P is better than P3R because the latter wasn't as good as it should have been is literal nonsense, I'm sorry Anon.Even in a worst case scenario of opinions where you don't like P3R's cons (worse animated cutscenes, lighting changes at the dorm, the new version of the OSTs, too easy without mods, etc) it's still better than P3P, because it's still close to FES in how it presents its overworld, story (both main and SL stories) and characters, while having the few gameplay improvements Portable added to P3 such as skill cards and direct commands.P3P will never not be the worst of the 4 versions of P3 if you care at all about its presentation.
>>4078516P3P is inherently at a disadvantage presentation due to the console that it was released on. As a result, sacrificing the basic Port Island exploration by reducing it to VN was a reasonable choice given the limitations. P3R does not have any excuse for feeling halfassed and they also screwed up the presentation by messing up the lighting and having generally worse mixes.

What was it?
>>4077341>Why are there monsters on the moon in the first placeThey're not monsters, they're whales.And Cid's going whaling on the moon.Whaling.On.The.Moon!
>>4077341>he doesn’t know
>>4077341The item description for Moon Stone in the game says there's "living monsters inside" and it's the Lunar Cry phenomenon that draws them out. Based on the Lunar Cry FMVs, they might have been more of an ectoplasm or bacteria that manifests memories or dreams. Like a precursor to FFX's pyerflies. Or FF15's starscourge. Speaking of FF15, you know, it was largely recycled from FF13 Versus. Rather than a plague, there was some kind of Red Moon "Curse". Possibly stemming from the populations use of drugs or painkillers that make people hallucinate their dreams while awake. The idea was that Noctis was a drug addict, and Stella was this girl only he could see.Perhaps making Stella a genderswap version of Tidus from Dream Zanarkand. And instead of stopping Yuna from sacrificing herself, Stella was encouraging Noctis to do the opposite. It was supposed to be dark, but who knows if they would have gotten away with making it 'that' dark.
>>4077408You know Cid kinda looks like Seifer...Seifer is supposedly an orphan, it's possible he was actually Cid and Edea's son, but they pretended he was an orphan hoping it would help him fit in with the rest of the gang. It also explains all the preferential treatment he was getting and the ease of his manipulation...
>>4033347this man TANSTAAFLS
How many hours have you put into BG2? Do you prefer it to BG1? Thinking about starting a new game...still don't think I've explored 40-50% of the game after playing it so many times all these years
>>4071515devs were being cute with that line. despite everyone and their mother knowing what a queer was in the 90's, they still opt'd to use the old definition to describe something that is "weird, odd or peculiar", which had fallen out of use by the end of the 1800's.
>>4074435Bradbury used it in Fahrenheit 451 in 1953
>>4074447he/they knew what a queer was in 53, too.
>>4074435What world do you live in. Queer is still used for peculiar today. Now gay has fallen out of use.
>>4071515Should have told her a story about trollops and plugtails, queer fellow.
Witcherbros, we eating good
>>3993198congrats on being the #1 Stupidest Person on 4Chan>It's ok if there's no food as long as Pavlov is still ringing the bell
>>4071520Witcher 2 is good, play both if you want a long journey.
>>3995791>Geralt's story is pretty much finished after Blood and WineGetting called out of retirement is de rigeur for all ageing heroes.
>>4071596Not really. The story is badly disjointed across the 3 games.Ciri isn't even mentioned until W3 ffs.
>>4071520I played W1 and W2 as appetisers to W3. No regrets. They have their flaws but I enjoyed them both.
Do you actually believe the Twisted Route will be a real thing in the game?
toby fox gave me a rape fetish
>>4084423i don't actually care about ralsei bullying orange, i just wish he would ask us "hey want me to bully you often?" and then proceed to bully me at every turn throughout the game with the option to turn it off at any time
>>4084224>>Ralsei>Might be hardcoded to love Kris.Is it weird that I find Ramb as someone who cares more about Kris' well being than Ralsei does?Ralsei is written like a faggot and Kris' boyfriend. Ramb is written like an old friend of Kris. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure if Ramb is aware of the whole soul thing. He seems to be at least aware that Kris is the one who made the TV World's fountain. That's more awareness than Susie's
Why is susie genuinely retarded?
>>4085209Ramb is written like who he is, somebody that got a big head about being treated like a toy and incorporated in the games of make-believe when he's a stolen power-strip, he's on the level of everybody else in TV World as an entertainment device regardless of not fitting in, literally or metaphorically as a darkner turning to stone because he doesn't belong to the worldRalsei I don't think is actually hard-coded to love Kris so much as he's just an echo of Asriel at a younger age turning him into a doofy softboy; Ralsei himself is very aware of the player/Kris separation but also tries to cover his ass on it
And write and develop his own rpg
>>4075956The last good game Avellone made was Planescape: Torment, over 27 years ago.When he last tried being a creative lead, the result was a design-by-committee, woke, overly safe, California-fantasy game called Tyranny. The good days are gone and they’re never coming back. I recommend abandoning the hobby and doing things in the real world, like getting married and having children.
>give money to an unstable alcoholic with chronic legal problems Some of you suckers deserve to be broke.

>>4078776>When he last tried being a creative lead, the result was a design-by-committee, woke, overly safe, California-fantasy game called Tyranny.and they tried to remove his parts which you could still detect stood out>There is none of my writing in Tyranny... I didn't do any dialogue writing for characters.
Why did no one play or even talk about this game? I feel like it went completely under the radar. I got it during the steam sale and it's probably the best JRPG I've played since SMT V: Vengeance
>>4064683>spoilerdoes the steam version
>>4047043It's boring.
>>4067339It's in the game but i dunno if it's enabled
>>4047043It's a budget dungeon crawler but they price it like it's a AAA game so no one buys it except for diehards until it goes on a deep discount.That said I think it's easily Experience's best game mechanically and it even has a decent story to it too on top of the great aesthetics.>>4047127It still has the odd mechanic of permanent buff spells that you just cast once as soon as you leave a rest point and forget about it but what it does have over their other games is more environmental gimmicks and interaction mechanics with certain spells, and the combat has a burst mechanic where you pick between types of buffs to apply on a cooldown separate to your character turns which makes the combat more focused around deciding when to focus on offence and when to focus on defence.
>>4048392KHSC is legit amazing, it has its flaws but the scope of the dialogue system is incredible (every interaction has 9 different responses) and it has a true sense of exploring a storied ancient ruin like no other DRPG does.
thread about gamedev, not your drama.
>>4090453>But the number of actions and turn count remain the samethat too are stats that can be modified by equipment. if you need inspiration for item benefits, just look up TTRPG magic items, like in DnD or Pathfinder 2e.
In RPG Maker, character stats are essentially for monsters. Since Enemies don't have levels or equipment.It's really inconvenient and not build for monster taming mechanics. I kind of hate how disorganized the "Traits" dialogue window is. It's such a mixed bag of stuff exclusive to actors and enemies separately. Like, the "Collapse" trait is just for Enemies. Maybe that was obvious in the earlier version where actors only had battle portraits. Then it's weird you can put party wide abilities on enemies, like double gold, double item drop. Because of that, you'd think it would be easier to copy or duplicate data between Actors and Enemies; but you can't.
