someone else made one of these a loooong time ago but it eventually slid off the catalog and nobody made another, so here

feeling lonely? it doesn't have to be this way! use this thread to look for anonymous buddies to organize, coordinate and play whatever vidya strikes your fancy together! now you don't have to wait for a game night to spend some time with your best friends, us anons! host your own listen server on your shitbox from hell, rent a dedicated one and give out the IP, use virtual lans, third party servers or even steam servers or whatever the fuck: NOBODY REALLY GIVES A SHIT as long as you're enjoying yourself! don't let whiny naysayers bring you down and ruin your fun!

If it's a special quest, they can join after the story bits and you start fighting the monster, or where you are allowed to use the SOS signal.

SANIC KARTZ
this is my first time trying to host, no bully
I got a month, so this server's gonna try to be dedicated for that entire month. Plug n' play away with your anon friends and enemies and see who's the best racist while waiting for FIYAH EMBUREM or WURM!

WHAT'S SO EXPERIMENTAL?
This version of SRB2KART is using a Saturn fork, which gives plenty of fixes and improvements. May or may not be less or more trannycode. However, you ARE forced to run it in OpenGL.
As far as mods go, there are a SHIT load of tracks, probably around 100, one I guarantee has been never before seen. Apparently there's some gay shit about that being a bad thing in terms of code due to slots being taken? Whatever. Hopefully it'll stay around 100, and if not, it's not like you can sue me for false advertising. Either way, chances are you'll rarely be playing the same track twice assuming I don't have to gut half of them.
Either way, the plan is:
>weekday is experimental week, as in, play lemme know about any big bad bugs or things missing/stuff that really, REALLY shouldn't be in before the weekend. this means i may have to disconnect and reconnect things at a very awkward pace because i really haven't screwed with a server in my life. depending on severity i might wait til dead hours to fix it.
>weekend is game day. see some shit? unless it's actively server-breaking, deal with it fag lmao
>if shit is irreparably fucked on friday, if someone could just toss the 1.3 version we'll just fuckin' do that
As far as things I couldn't add and remove that I'd like to add/remove, if anyone has any information on the following it'd be much appreciated:
<safely removing certain maps from the vanilla karts map pack, such as the mario kart ones since there's infinitely better ones already in the fan packs and the ones there are super shitty
<in fact info on this in general would be great, as i'm sure there's some gay shit in some map packs 
<also info on how to have more than 3 maps on the voting screen would be neat. as far as I know, Neptune's the only thing that does it

Just finished Sonic Superstar.
All in all, a huge "meh".
I was happy to see what SEGA should have done ages ago, meaning the classic Sonic gameplay in a 3D world.

I played on the Switch and man, graphics are fucking garbage, all textures are washed up and the worlds feel empty and lacking any kind of detail.
People are justifying this shit with the excuse that the Switch is not as powerful as the PS5 or Xbox series X but you don't need that much power to make a good looking 2.5 cartoony game.
Kirby Star Allies looked very good and it was an early Switch title, so no reason for this one to look as shit as it does, that is just the developers being shit at optimizing, lazy, and nothing else.

Gameplay is decent, physics are very similar to MegaDrive Sonic games and Mania.
The bonus stages are way too fucking much, one on every stage like in the MegaDrive games was enough, but here you can play sometimes 3 in the same level and that breaks the game flow too much, and it's not like they are any fun to play.

Speaking of breaking the game flow, the new power-ups were totally unnecessary and require you to select them with the right stick first before pressing the button to activate them and once again, this breaks the pacing of the game way too much.

The level theming is really uninspired, while they are supposedly all "new" zones, they are nothing we haven't already saw thousands of times in Sonic games, with only the 3D pixel world being actually original, that was pretty cool.

How much "power" do you need for a 2.5D platformer? Are people seriously going to argue that you need a fucking NoGames5 just to play a game that's no more complex than SSE in Brawl?

People are justifying developers' laziness with the excuse that some platforms aren't "cutting edge" in terms of power, but other games on the very same platforms proved that you don't need an absurd amount of power to make a good looking game that also runs well.
As you said, we are talking about a 2.5 cartoon platformer, it's not some sort of open world realistic shit.
Hell, LittleBigPlanet on the Vita looked much better than this, speaking of 2.5D platformers.
The issue is that many developer go like: 
>"Oh so our game doesn't run as well in this weaker platform? Alright, let's decrease the resolution, the polygon count, the textures resolution, remove the shadows, the particle effects, the dynamic lights until it runs somehow smoothly"
But then do NOTHING to make up for those elements that were cut.
Like, you need to decrease the polygon count?
Redraw the textures in a way that the models look just as detailed.
Dynamic lights and shadows take too many resources?
Draw the lights directly into the textures (like Team Ninja does) and use some shadows that aren't as demanding.
Dynamic elements like hair, capes, flags, slow down the game?
Animate those manually.
Don't just downgrade, remove shit, and call it a day.

Fine. Here I go.

What's your preferred way to play vidya? I'm talking about the best way to be comfortable and have a great time.
For example. I like to play certain games like Ridge Racer 4 in total darkness. Having the tv being the only light in the room, playing in my comfy chair with a hot drink and my window open to simulate the wind. It's such a beautiful game  and playing in other way seems wrong to me. I'm even thinking about getting a wheel to play it that way.
On the other hand, right now I've been playing Warhammer 40K: Space Marine. Obviously the previously mentioned setup wouldn't make sense. What I do is get myself pumped with some Power Metal (Sabaton, Powerwolf, etc.) alongside a carbonated cold drink. I do that with a bunch of aggressive games of which I don't like the OST. I wouldn't do it with MGR:R for example.
Some games, especially games that don't require moment to moment action, I like having a snack for. Strategy games, JRPGS. I like having chips or granola or something like that.
Moving away from food. Do you do most of your gaming on your PC chair or do you sometimes use a couch? Sitting back and getting sucked into a couch is quite comfy.
I use my PS3 and PS2 for my couch playing and is really, really comfy.
Or you can use your bed. I mostly use handhelds for that though. I play games on my vita while laying down. Is kind of the reason I've been considering a Steam Deck. I like the pick and play nature of it and would like to play relaxed in my bed. Right now I'm waiting for an OLED revision though. The other day I saw a mod someone is working on to put a 1200p screen on the thing and it looks pretty nice. I would play a lot of Yakuza on it. Maybe some Elden Ring.
Speaking, of Elden Ring, what do you think Fromsoft will do next? I mean, they are working on Armored Core 6. I wonder how that'll come out. I'm not that big on AC although I really enjoyed playing AC4 and 4 Answer. I wonder if they will incorporate some souls mechanics.
I'm getting side tracked, of yeah! Do you use aromatic candles when gaming? I think it adds to some games. Specially those with a cozy, warm atmosphere.
I like sniffing on some girl's perfume while playing the Senran Kagura game. I've been playing some Peach Beach Splash and I like to have a Pina Colada at hand alongside some sunscreen to rub under my nose. it gives me the illusion that I'm there. I would like to buy a busty anime doll to sit it on my lap while playing but they are too expensive.
I hope sex robots are around the corner. I mean, I know they are at risk of getting banned by the jews but I don't see development stopping. I watch those Redmoa Haydee videos and imagine how awesome would be to her sitting on my face. Imagine 2B blowing you while playing vidya. Even if robots don't come through then maybe VR can be a good alternative and that's something that I highly doubt will get banned. Apple just released a new pair of headsets which I bet is mostly for devs to start working on sweet stuff and once that technology gets perfected, porn artist and modelers will work their magic.

I am similar but only when i play Horror games, playing them in the living room in plain daylight just feels wrong to me.
When i play horror vidya (or watch horror movies for that matter) the screen must be the only source of light as you said, also, playing during night is better because you don't hear external noise you would in daylight and the sound of the game gets amplified.

I think space station 13 is one of the best games in existence. The best open source codebase is probably /vg/station, but they have been gradually taken over by discord trannies.
So I decided to fork it to a new fork called fstation, with the emphasis on being fresh and fun:
https://gitgud.io/Hinaichigo/fstation13

And to that effect, I'm hosting a new server for imageboard users!:

I lost my mind when that bloodborne demake came out and everyone was slobbering the dev's nuts over it. Dude literally didn't have to do the hard part of game design (designing fun gameplay loops) and just had to do the execution part and people acted like he was some incredible visionary because he reminded them of their nostalgia for the ps1 era.

Yes, that's what it looks like when marketing is successful. Nobody cares about the process, only the end result.
You should take it as a sign of hope that some retard tranny can be so successful by copying something so blatantly. If he can do it, imagine what you could do.

Nah the limiter drift is literally unavoidable, you can mitigate the visible effects with VRR or some other stuff like fast sync / forcefully vsyncing at a lower refresh rate like 57-59 but no matter what hardware you have you ain't changing that.

The voices of these 3DPD "females" are laced with poison, leading us astray from the true path. The only female voices that our ears should be graced with are those of pure digital creatures, angelic beings whose synthesized voices are blessed by the Omnisiah himself.

But AI voices are trained on 3DPD voices? Hatsune Miku's voice is Saki Fujita. No idea who Neurosama's voicegen was trained on.
Literally every anime girl you've ever heard was voiced by 3DPD. Even for manga, any voice you imagine is generated by your brain based on memories of 3DPD. The only way to avoid that would be to be born deaf.

++What's this all about?++
Detective Conan is a game where one of us declares himself the Conan and takes a ragtag team of six goblins assembled by anons into an online competitive murder mystery simulator.
To quote one of Showdown's mods...
>@MacChaeger: None of these people are youtubers
>@MacChaeger: They impersonate verlis to to gain notoriety and attract new members
>@MacChaeger: These people regularly trick others into getting locked
>@MacChaeger: this is the single most toxic group of players on PS

++How does it work?++
After the current Conan calls "new Conan", the first anon to claim the title is our Conan. He uses the first six legal Pokémon suggested after his claim as his team. Conan can also call "new team" when the old one became stale (rule of thumb: 40-60 minutes). Conan plays in ++National Dex++ unless specified otherwise.
Absolutely no experience is necessary and everything is done in-browser.

++Rules++
1. Conan can't forfeit, intentionally throw a match, or timer stall.
2. Conan may not edit a set without the suggester's permission.
