New Thread for shit talking NWN RP Servers and it's players like POTM, Arelith, TDN.I feed off of the gossip and hatred.
>>3492307You mean "just released" again, after several times, over the last 6 years. They hype themselves up but their weird ideas is going to doom them.
>>3492672They'll keep doing this because the discord hype is the point of the pw instead of the pw itself.
Can't wait for you to lose your RDD beslyth you faggot!
>>3492678Dear god, you're right. That and over-decorating areas with no substance of world building or RP gameplay.
>>3491066That's not a very nice thing to say, my guy. I believe most of the playerbase have relatively ordinary lives and normal. Maybe even a house, a spouse and kids.I still play on the RP servers from time to time; maybe mostly because I miss the haydays of NWN in the 00s and wish to reminisce of the good times that were had.I dearly miss 3kds and TWI with their fantastic communities.
It may look like shit but it will offer a choice of real RPG (that is realtime) combat instead of strategy game combat, which is so rare these days. It also takes inspiration from the best RPG of all time, BG1. Hopes, fears, dreams?
>>3492886>obviously disregarding your pathetic attempt to include games that are US legal drinking ageWoah, it's almost like my entire point was always that DEX = king stat that governs literally everything and/or is required for every "build" has been dominant design ever since 3rd edition D&D aka almost 30 fucking years, zoom-zoom.
>>3492892DnD3e is 2000so thanks for acknowledging you are a retard and included fallout 1/2 for the sake of making the list longerlet's recap on your words, didn't you say>that has plagued every single CRPG's ever since third edition D&D rolled aroundso we've pretty much established it's not "every single one" it's just those using retarded DnD system and retarded DnD-based systems, innit?>They fixed... That alone makes this game the single best CRPG released in decadesyeah let's just forget that almost every out of numerous non-DnD based crpg of 2010 have already fixed that>just those using retarded DnD system oh yeah and that one slavshit-gaem-no-white-people-play from the same devs that I keep forgetting was also guilty of the same flaw as DnD games but to a greater extentlol you keep getting pwned in the ass, starting to think that's what you are coming here for
>>3492858They literally did on the demo release day. Which you didn't participate in because you don't pay attention. Look up the last thread in the archive.
>>3492942i don't remember them crying, they came in and took their licks saying they didn't expect anything else from this place.
>>3492949yeah looked it up.
This software isn't the best, but are you making an RPG, anon?
>>3492231Yes the style and expressions are very anime-like
>>3478619> We want our own safe space> But other people are bad if they don't let us invade theirsFucking 100% already.
>>3492192That market is dominated by gacha. High barier to entry I'm afraid.
Anybody got some cracked/free plugins for MZ?I'm looking for the ones that change the gameplay style into a strategy rpg or sidescroller?
>>3492825Well, you can just download MZ games and copy the plugin files.Plugins aren't cracked, that said, some are obfuscated making them useless; unless you abite by the developer of that plugin and only use their plugins. You're going to encounter issues with conflicts due to unnessecary bloat in plugins and won't be able to fix them when they're obfuscated.SigmaSuccour kept a list of all plugins for MZ that he could find in a spreadsheet.Here's a free one from it: https://github.com/Ohisama-Craft/SRPG_GearMZ(steam link)https://store.steampowered.com/app/2811870/RPG_Maker_MZ__SRPG_Gear_MZ__Tactical_Battle_system_for_RPG_Maker_MZ/Yes, there is a competitor on itch.io that google, etc. prioritize (because western) which costs 25 dollar. (the western plugin community sucks due to the devs feeling entitled, are money greedy and obfuscate shit)Anyway, find sigma's list and you'll find plenty of side scroller helpful plugins.Look up Side on youtube if you want to see how to make a side scroller in MV/MZ
what are your thoughts on the mana series? is it better than tales? what is your favorite game in the series?
>>3487737>is it better than talesWhy did you include this in your post? They're very different games, with vastly different goals in terms of their gameplay, themes, and story designs. This really feels like useless flamebaiting.
>>3488230I'll be real with you, Children is pretty shit. It's absolutely fine staying where it is on the DS, and Heroes isn't that much better. Not everything needs rereleases and remakes
>>3491142Yeah, it released a while ago actually, I think in 2022. It was pretty bad if you ask me, just a bore to sit through.
Playing through Trials one last time with Kevin as my main as I haven't seen Mirage Palace yet. Riesz and Duran are my companions. Thinking of going Dark Riesz since the first time I played I made her a Starlancer. Thinking of making Duran an Edelfrei for partywide Saber buffs, and have Kevin go Light for the healing. I'm on Hard mode if that matters.
I cannot have a party without Angela.
How is this? Is it shit? Is it good?
>>3492839Okay. Well I guess the thread is over then.
>>3492836You gain me calling you a niggerfaggot.You niggerfaggot.
>>3492850Please don't make any more threads like this.
>>3492850Ha ha based

>>3492921Then what's with the assassination video?
>>3492922Check the date when it was released.
>>3492923No way, it's look way too good.
>play kingdom come deliverence after it being shilled here for so long>all the posts about it seem to be about how it's le hard this and that>it's actually super easy if you do the entire training quest and not just the first bit>economy is completely fucked once you get a horse because it basically gives you basically infinite inventory space and just a few trips back and forth from any fight with armoured opponents nets you great boons>combat is clearly designed for dueling and yet the game keeps throwing multiple enemies at you, yet using the bow feels like cheese because it's so trivially easy to hit anyone if you just put a dot in the middle of your screencommon comback is "hurr durr have you tried fighting 3 guys at once irl" well why does the fucking game keep throwing 3 guys at me in missions huh?There's a lot more i can complain about, open world basically runs out of content once you're done with the town that starts with R and the one with the chuch under renovations, the rest of the map is basically filler. Story is kinda shit, some chapters are neat in the same way a mid TV show can have a good episode but the our protag's motivation is really weak. Hometown gets massacred by some thug, go kill that thug, right, makes sense. But the guy that ordered it is so distant he can never realistically be involved in the story. So once that is done, all that remains is "hurr durr i want that sword my dad was working on" even though the guy the sword is for says he has like 100 and doesn't care, so that feels incredibly contrived. And then that gets resolved in the first third of the game also. The rest is just kinda meandering from random assignment to random assignment until the game ends. Searching for treasure is somewhat fun but the game can't reward you with much more than money and shit you sell for money. I had the absolute best gear 1/3 through the game just because i did sidequests as they appeared.
>>3492826skill issue. just block when you see their arms move, you will make a master strike
>>3492863Spamming master strike is a bad solution to an issue that could be saved by having a combat camera that isn't garbage. It's all because of their 'lock in' feature.
>>3492572Nobody mentioned fast travel The map isn't that big you know
>>3492866the bigger problem (at least to me) is that the enemies usually end up running around, not even trying to reach my back, just constanly running wich is annoying.
>>3492916>t. fought the Parthians or the Sarmatians or the Huns or the Mongols or the Scythians or the…
Has any jrpg bothered to explain why there are treasure chests littered randomly all over the world?
>>3492339>jrpg are deep and say things about LIFE!>they hace the greatest stories and writing in any game!>can't be bothered to explain why treasure chests sprout out of the ground like shrooms
>>3492339yeah when did everything have to become about some sort of faux realism or immersion? I only care about gameplay loop and graphic style. Literally the job / class system in DW3 and FF2 remake on GBA are among the most peak of experiences in gaming.
>>3492125my headcanon is that bandits would store their stolen stiff there
>>3492468yeah I mean what's the difference between finding a chest or just loot on the ground? In general the loot works like that because the item will often match the area.>Go to fire world for the fire resist armor>Go to ice world for the ice staffetc.
>>3492468Mine is that most of them are dead Mimics who gathered their treasure before dying. Some are real chests like in treasure rooms of dungeons. But random ones off trail under a tree or something, dead mimics :(
>fully voiced prologue>steam refund policy is 2 hours>I take 3 hours to finish it because I kept restaring and trying out different classes>finish prologue>none of the characters are voiced nowWhat kind of bait and switch bullshit is this?
>>3492880Look at him and laugh
>>3492880You still have a chance of refunding the game. Just choose "my issue is not on the list" so that an actual human looks at it, mention that you just beat the prologue because you kept trying out different classes and the refund might go through.

>>3490559What are you on about? BG3 fans are into those things.
>>3490494Apparently the next part will take place in this cursed city a la Bloodborne. I wonder how much stuff is already done, and how much is going to take to release. If this map it's a world map where you can move yourself to different locations, the dev must be very close to releasing. Judging by the drawing there is going to be a cemetery section in the game.
>>3491655nooo you cant just make it "Ravens Burg".... that looks just bad.
>>3491507that's like saying the purpose of every other game is the game over screen.
>>3492676why? it looks pretty to me
When will gamers get on Todd's level?
>>3492725True, that's a great way to make the story work for a game like TES. It's kind of pre-emptive, and unfolds as you go, no hurry. Oblivion in contrast starts with shit hitting the fan, and MC frantically responding to that. Both received criticism, but MW works better for TES, while Oblivion's story would've worked in a more linear and cinematic game (that can also handle more NPCs on the screen lol)Makes me wonder how often rewrites happen because some written scenes don't work in the game for one reason or another. I remember hearing that Oblivion's ending was changed, but I don't know the reasons.
>>3487189also ...it sucks major dick
>>3487290>Bad Microsoft for not axing you already like a gangrenous arm
>>3492725It also acknowledge the side questing tendency of players directly, if you go to Caius at level 2 or whatever he flat out tells you “Go join some guilds. Get a cover identity. Go earn some experience. Do some freelance adventuring. Get out there, and come back to me when you’re stronger” which was refreshing and cleverly done.
>>3492804He does this multiple times, too.

>>3492878If these games were smarter one might argue that short term profit over long term loss was some internal moral they were aiming for. Being shortsighted by greed ends up biting you in the ass down the road. That kind of thing. But these are not smart games. And they just suck at balance. And PLAYING THE VILLAIN just sounds like a juicy bullet point you can slap on the box.
>>3492876No, it actually sucks. Being evil is only a burden.
It honestly always bugged me whenever Star Wars tried to go in on the Light side/dark side mechanic for their games. The whole point of the series was to NOT fall to the dark side. It's pure heroic fantasy. You're not meant to be morally gray or complicated or, well evil.
>>3492891Not in the least. You get some really good essences for devouring and it's very easy to keep yourself topped off.
>>3492881Its not the woke theme that angers me in tyranny(at the time I played it I should say, maybe today that would anger me but this was before the culture war shit for me). Its the fact that going against Kyros is basically a forgone conclusion and you're railroaded into that decision.I wanted to just be like that masked judge. Following orders, because as we all know, Kyros keeps everyone on a short leash.But the rebellion against Kyros is done so hack handily it legitimately pisses me off to this day. Kyros wants to kill you because you followed his orders to the fucking letter and that upsets him because doing so unlocked some power within you and the regionFuck off.At least give me something to work with, either emotionally, logically or whatever.>>3492887They try at least, but they never get it right.
what's the difference between the remakes? which ones would you recommend to be played first? also japanese or english version?
>>3487951PC version of SSSC has the highest quality. For Lunar 2 it's the Playstation version. The Sega CD games have animated cutscenes which aren't exactly FMV.
>>3487862How many father in laws did she go through when her mother was under hypnosis
>>3486109Japanese versions only, English is retarded localized shit filled with fart jokesBest version of the first game is Silver Star Story MPEG edition for the Sega Saturn. SSS for the PS1 and SS are mostly identical, but SSS MPEG Edition has better quality FMVs.Best version of the second game is Eternal Blue for the Playstation. Unlike SSS, the PS release of EB actually has additional content (more dungeons and bosses) than the SS version.Everything else can be ignored completely.
>>3491743this reply can be ignored completely.
>>3489230The PSP version follows the Saturn and PS1 versions' broad strokes, but replaces the world map with points on a map a la FFT, rebalances the combat a bit, and makes the graphics look like some cheesy mobile title.I think the Saturn version of Lunar 1 and the PS1 version of Lunar 2 are the way to go.
