I'm not specifically talking about individual series, rather lone games that got ruined by shitty updates or developer neglect. For me, TF2 is probably the best example of a once great game left to die. Volvo and friends are less concerned with rebalancing weapons and fixing the bot problem, and more concerned with sitting on their asses and doing fuck all about it. The moment they gave the game to the "community" is the moment it well and truly died in my eyes. Shitty hats, shitty maps, hidden political messages, I can't fucking take it anymore.

I’m not savvy with specs or whatever, but my guess is the sheer amount of dogshit cosmetics and godawful community maps bloating the file size.

Definitely noticed frame drops in some of the community servers with no regards in poly efficiency. 
High amount of cosmetics could have been the answer to this issue but even as I was playing the game with old GPU, the game was infested with cosmetic spam already and I did not have the frame drops. Also I tried "no cosmetics" mod, it loads the game faster but does little to no difference to frame rates.
For reference, I noticed these frame drops at around 2019 or 2020.

That thing started lose its own purpose by adding unbalanced weapons anyway. It would take them one more year to add cosmetics (assuming they have not done that already)

there's a dozen different unusuals that take up multiple slots instead of just 1 now including unusual weapons

Build from SRB2Kart's source and Saturn's source with the relative links and THEN do the instructions above. Grab the new dependencies for Saturn too.

If Saturn doesn't work for you, you CAN load vanilla 1.6, it's just buggy as shit.

>How do your parents feel about this ordeal?
My dad died before finding out, and my mom tries to be supportive because she believes everything she sees on TV, but her actual feelings keep bubbling to the surface when they interact so there's tons of drama. Polite sage for off topic.
Just finished Portrait of Ruin. Really liked it. Might be my favorite GBA/DS Vania so far. The relative lack of grinding unless you are dedicated enough to master the skills (which I didn't even know was a thing until I had to look up some stuff on the game) was also a big plus for me after Dawn of Sorrow was full tilt with the amount of grinding. Any complaints I have for it are mostly superfluous at least.

Anyway
>Played any good romhacks lately? 
Never checked out romhacks before, and just been focusing on actual games when I'm in the mood for metroidvanias.
>Do you find yourself using speedrunning tech casually?
I'll only do speed running tech if I want to get around faster. Otherwise I don't really care.
>Team Ladybug: Breath of fresh air or cancer? 
I've only played Luna Nights, but that alone was very solid. I do want to check out the Deedlit game, but I'd like to either rewatch Lodoss or read the novels since they finally got translated first.  No idea why anyone would consider them cancerous. Luna nights did feel far too linear to be sure, but playing as Sakuya with her time stop shenanigans more than made up for the lack of exploration.

Moonlit Farewell has been out for a while now and it is pretty great. Not as concise and straightfoward as RutM was. Lacking juuuust a tiny bit in the soundtrack department (though, can anything really beat the Royal Pinacotheca?). A lot harder (could just be me getting old) and a lot more content than RutM though. Prettier and way more atmospheric than RutM was with its enviroments and a lot more variety. Not a dissapointment at all, stands up on its own, but it does drag on and feels way too long at times.

Bow and arrow was significantly nerfed compared to RutM, but is compensated by melee attacks, combos and perfect dodging being a lot stronger. It is a little bit harder to see enemy telegraphs though, but its not that difficult to see enemies' patterns. You can still end bosses in a few seconds with just the bow if you spec for it though. Power progression is a lot more balanced through the whole game, and even going through old areas you can still die if you're not careful.

Don't forget to smack the bell to save. Or, if you wanna challenge yourself. Only save if you have enough lunar bits to pray an offering. Was fun doing that for a while.

Doesn't help Dawn of Sorrow that the Luck stat is literally broken. If you played the standard release, give it a try patched if you opt to replay it.

What are some of your favorite skateboarding games? Which Tony Hawk is the best? Is Skate a good series? Do modern skate games still invoke the same amount of fun as the old ones if they don't have AC/DC's "TNT" blaring at max volume?

I played a ton of Pro Skater 4 on exbawks, very fond memories of trying endlessly to impress the bums and going all over the place on Alcatraz. Getting sick combos only to completely fuck it up at the end. Wondering what Tony Hawk is up to now.

>what's this?
From the fucking disgusting people who brought you a very shitty DOS Sonic fangame back in 1998, play in this DooM mod very unique kart racing game where you plunge into chasms and barge into walls. Choose your racer from a wide array of shitty meme characters made by 12 years old join my Discord server at https://dicksuck.cum/invite/g4yN1gg3r5, on tracks made by the fucking geniuses who thought building complex 3D geometry on an engine that renders 2D sprites was a good idea. Trannies don't deserve human rights.

On the flipside, the karting's serviceable, the items are decently balanced and the server linked in this OP contains none of the gay shit described above. There can be some fun derived from this kusoge even if the paragraph above reads the contrary.
>is this game fun?
In spite of what's said above it is indeed a moderately fun game. Try it out if you might.
>is this server related to that other server back from Summer?
No. This is a vanilla server that's running a bunch of new racetracks, some custom characters and not much else. It bears no relation to the >people that populated that one server, so please give this one a go if that one's warped your perception on the game.

>how can I download this game?
You will need both the game's files and the addon pack that the server's running in order to run it.
<GAME: https://github.com/STJr/Kart-Public/releases/tag/v1.6
<ADDONS: https://pixeldrain.com/u/f7t9i3Zv
To install the game on Windows:
Head over to the first link, download srb2kart-v16-Installer.exe then install the game on whichever location you've chosen. Afterwards, move to the game's root folder, create a subdirectory named addons then dump the contents from the ADDONS zip inside of it.

At long last, its time for some real autism and grindan. The return of Wurm is here, and this time, we'll be exploring the lost lands of Brorrowind! We're glad to announce that the stress test for this years server will be Dec 29th at 7pm cst. The census and excise office of Seyda Neen will officially open for business shortly afterwards (Jan 5th is the current plan, subject to general feedback. keep an eye on the thread and the website: https://wurmbadmin.wixsite.com/brorrowind)

>What is Wurm Unlimited?
Wurm is an mmo from 2006 that focuses on sandbox elements. Instead of just killing goblins for exp, its a fully terraformable world. Build a comfy cottage or a massive castle. Have a small herb garden or sprawling wheat fields. Master a craft or mine deep into the earth. Go fishing, breed horses, brew potions, even make your own cheese.

>What is Brorrowind
Every 6 months anons get together and host our own Wurm server. This time we're taking the heightmap from Morrowind and slapping it into the server. Build your own Balmora, visit Red Mountain with friends, and enjoy events like the farmers festival in Vivec. We've even got custom items and weapons this time, including craftable Daedric weapons.

>Ok sounds cool, how do I join?
Get a copy from steam, a steam key from someplace cheap, or find yourself the yarhar friendly version thats floating around (I'm sure someone with better opsec than me will post a link). Once you have a client, click connect by IP and use the settings provided later in the thread as launch date approaches (will also be available on the website)

>But how do I actually play Wurm?
Wurm does have a slight learning curve to it, but if you can read you can figure it out. I've got info for both the server and how to play on our site here: https://wurmbadmin.wixsite.com/brorrowind/new-to-wurm

Update from the badmins:
>Custom cliffracer models 
They aren't going to make it in any time soon. My knowledge of blender and Rolfcode settings for creature animation is too weak, and the only workaround I could find involved a lot of clients crashing to desktop.

>Server Updates
This Friday, at 2pm cst, I'll be taking the server down briefly (estimate 5 minutes) for an update: We'll be reducing mining hits required for rockshards from 50 to 30 as an experiment- if people aren't a fan of this we can revert it later, but I've had lots of requests for this and heard no pushback.
This update will also include a new feature: while I can't quite get custom emotes (yet), I have a custom action you can use in most situations that will function like an emote. Prepare to unleash your inner gamer, as Dagoth Ur himself will bless all residents of Brorrowind with an N'wah word pass. Warning: the sound carries farther than a thuum, and can be heard at render distance.

>Events
This Saturday, at 7pm cst, we'll be having our first event. Saddle your horses and hitch your carts, because we'll be having a massive race across Brorrowind! Categories will include mounted (any mount) and cart/wagon racing. Winners will get Shards of Lorkhan and silver based on performance.

The race was a huge success, and while we managed to avoid casualties from the race itself (despite the dragons best efforts), we suffered a casualty at the winners circle. It seems n'wahs are too week to fight off shortstack thotts, and so the gods have decided next weekends event will have a fighting skill focus (pvp included)! We're still hashing out the rules and setting things up, but we wanted to give you all a heads up to train your FS. Event will happen Saturday at 7pm cst. Also, a huge thanks to Nuggro for organizing and setting up events, quests, and surprises yet revealed.

>Updates
I have forg- I mean strategically delayed the daedric crafting update to Monday at 2pm cst so you lads can have a nice weekend of gains. I'm still working on getting fus-roh-N'wah working on cave tiles, but at least future cliffracers should stop breathing fire. Existing ones may still have flames. I've also begun to work glass weaponry in as another cosmetic option.

Forgiveness, but I forgot to leave a notice here about the server move. As of 30 minutes ago we're now at 104.225.140.59. Same name in the browser, but yarhar lads will need to use the new ip.

We are now using v1.1 of the Brorrowind mod, which adds some gm tools for creating events, as well as the new Bladed Fist weapon. Crafted with a short sword blade and a leather glove, this weapon works with weaponless fighting like brass knuckles. It does slightly more damage and uses slashing instead of bludgeoning.

Just confirmed the autobackup process is back up and running on the new server. Let me know if anything else explodes. Happy wurming!
