One of the things thats quite annoying is when you talk to someone about an old game and you start to notice that the person you are talking to is just parroting something. You'll notice phrases,words,sentences being almost exactly the same. Kind of like deja-vu. And something that has happened several times is me coming across a video essay on youtube (which i never watch) and seeing the exact same opinion expressed in that video. So for instance a shitty medicore game called Mad Max i recently played. Another example would be Kane & Lynch 2: Dog Days. Another shitty game being praised simply because youtubers says its a hidden gem or some masterpiece that everyone somehow forgot or ignored bla bla bla. Its just very interesting because you could simply go back into the past by looking at old reviews to see how everyone thought of the game. The worst part about this is that normalfags cannot think for themselves. Whatever the youtuber says the normalfag repeats. So now these games are considered to be somewhat good with normalfags which doesnt even make any fucking sense. Common thing i see is that alot of people that have these opinions say something like 
>oh i played this in my childhood
or something like that. So they obviously have some sort of bias towards it already. Just because you played a shitty game as a kid doesnt make the game good. Fucking retards.
Oh and i almost forgot to mention No Man's Sky. Remember that shitty gam

Anon, that video you linked is still Progressive bullshit. Wounded Knee wasn't about massacring the America-Indians just for shits and giggles, or "Muh white conquest". It was about arresting a domestic terrorist that the American government had already been chasing for months, and turned into a massacre because the Indians wanted a race war: https://odysee.com/@AmericanKroganArchives:1/Bioshock.pt3:8?r=7aH3bCkcm1X3uhH13mCvEwARVdDSavuw&t=2587

One mission I really liked in Red Dead Redemption was the one where you helped a bunch of Mexican rebels overthrow their corrupted leader, then, as soon as the rebels take control they act just as bad.
So the game instead of going "hurr durr colonialism, white man bad" basically tells you that beaners are the cause of their own problems, and that being regards is in their nature.
That was pretty cool, and kinda redpilling for normalfags.

Anon, that's also how Far Cry 6 ends. And it stops being funny when you learn that this is how Progressives think. That the revolution is perpetual until utopia is achieved.

Couldn't be bothered because focusing on other things =/= impossibru DPScheck
I'm fairly certain that juggling Shadow Jiao with Shadowless Blade + Aerial Gem would be enough to clear it NG with the gear grade available at that point in the game, even before throwing in attack consumables or whatever is the actual optimal DPS. I'm fairly hazy on how it went, but I'm pretty sure I got it to ~33-40% on Hard on a sub-optimal weapontype and sub-optimal gem, because I was too busy working on all my weapon's proficiencies + arts mastery, rather than DPS optimisation.

So no, I don't see what you mean. I'm not saying git gud, since I didn't do it myself but I am thinking it.

Played pic related for the first time. Hot take but it was great. Playing it kind of reminded me of Deus Ex, which is one of my all time favorites.
It's lacking a lot of polish, but it's at least stable (with fan patches) so I didn't encounter too many crashes or serious bugs. The most annoying thing to me was not being able to visually distinguish between doors you can interact with and ones you can't. It's a big problem when you're trying to sneak, and run to a door thinking you can go through it before an enemy turns around and spots you only to find out it's just a decorative texture. 
Speaking of stealth, once you get to a certain point it's completely broken. You can go in front of enemies, and even bump into them, and they still won't spot you as long as you're crouched. Makes the last few areas of the game piss easy, at least until you get to a boss battle and have to deal with the shit combat. The boss fights are probably the worst part of the game especially Ming-Xiao that fucking chink bitch, a mod that did more to balance them or add stealth options would do a lot to make the overall game better.
I only did one playthrough, but looking up the other story options it doesn't really seem like the choices you make really matter outside of the very end. Am I wrong or does nothing you do make any difference before that final cab ride?

Come here when you're listless and don't know what game you want to play. Ask others for suggestions. Or come here to help out others.
If you want a recommendation, try giving some information others might find useful to help you out:
>What genre(s) you're most into.
>What console(s)/systems you have--if that's important to you.
>What game(s) did you play last/most recently? Do you want something similar or different?
>Is there a franchise/gamedev you really like?
>What catalogs/games have you already tried and can't seem to pick up?
>How much time do you have in each play session?
>Tell some other interest of yours.
>What games have you left unfinished?
>Are you just trying to choose between X many games? Say them and say why.
If you don't provide any info and just want someone to recommend you something with no information, then prepare to have everyone recommend Knack to you.

If Sunrider isn't what you're looking for, and genre is a loose guideline, why not most shmups? Jamestown had a story (I think). There's the ship-builder-management games like FTL and Starsector. On the other hand, Mass Effect might be hidden in plain view if you didn't consider it - not played it myself, but I've lurked long enough to know it only tripped at the finish line with 3, and that 1+2 are supposedly a decent experience.
Oh, and the literal Legend of the Galactic Heroes game.

I just don't think you're gonna get a terrain-based isometric very easily, when the setting is a void in space. Also cross-map gauss-beams seem like they would be in opposition to the gameplay loop too.

Discuss emulation-related things here.

NEWS

>ユデア天堂 shoahs Ryujinx not through lawsuits but by buying out/threatening the main developer to quit and delete fucking everything.
>However, no DMCAs were filed against the source code unlike Jewzu and none of the contributors were banned nor were any forks taken down, so the emergence of a successor-fork is only a matter of time unless 任天堂 feels like resuming the endless game of DMCA-mole or buying more slaves across the wider emu community.
>The unthinkable has happened and Bloodborne has become playable on PC in less than a month after it first went ingame using shadPS4, a few dozen other games have gone ingame since then.
>Of note is that the emulator requires FSGSBASE instructions necessitating an Intel Ivy bridge or first generation AMD Zen CPU at minimum.
>With Xbox one game encryption having been successfully cracked, various Xboner wrappers soon emerged so people can finally play the vast library of fantastic Xbox wan exclusives beyond the clutches of Microsoft even though none of them run Lunix yet. XWine1 and WinDurango are the most prominent at the moment, with XWine1 capable of playing Minecrap to some degree.
>RPCS3 wires up online multiplayer emulation for a variety of games including Armored Core for Answer.
>MAME devs cook up Nuked-SC55 for emulating the Roland SC-55 Midi synth for all your obscure Nipponese エロゲ and/or Doom needs.
>Dolphin switches to new release model, now instead of one (1) "stable" release every 10 years they'll publish a new "stable" release every 6 months which should make organizing netplay gamenights somewhat easier.
>PCSX2 officially releases 2.0 as stable feat. playable hardware mode Ace Combat 04, but it doesn't seem they intend to change their current release "schedule".
>Parallel-gs makes steady progress, no ETA on an official merge with mainline PCSX2 yet.
>Stenzek incurs a predictable soy/HRT(?)-induced meltdown over users of ebul Duckstation forks sometimes making erroneous bug reports on mainline along with emotional damage incurred from the toxic emu community or some shit so he changed the loicense to prevent anti-semites from redistributing custom forks+builds of HIS sacred code!!11...anything prior to the license change is fair game though and Mednafen still exists, as do existing Duckstation forks.

Some redditor was upset that the Swanstation libretro port of Duckstation hasn't been updated in years because the wise and powerful Stenzek forbade the unenlightened rabble from distributing unapproved builds of HIS emulator incl. forks so that HIS Github issues list remain free of heretics reporting bugs from random Libretro/Fagdroid/MacOS/Plan9/AmigaOS forks etc., so the redditor made a script that downloads a recent Duckstation source code tar and compiles an updated Libretro core (rather than distribute a precompiled package violating the loicense).

FEATURING: DAIMAKAIMURA A.K.A. GHOULS'N GHOSTS, FANTASY ZONE II: THE TEARS OF OPA-OPA, AND PLANET HARRIERS
Somewhere near the woods lies a gas station, neatly placed seemingly in the middle of nowhere; however, it is far from desolate. For there anons from all around gather inside a room. A room filled to the top with arcade machines. There, anons enjoy the evening drinking, calling each other faggot and just having a good old time.
>What is this?
Anons vote for some games (or someone just posts some) and play them until they beat them or lose. Arcade games that don't take long to complete and reward skill. Once finished they post their score and see who did the best. They give others advice, share what they think of the game, call each other casuals, say which character they would fuck and more.
>How much time do I have to play?
One month or until winners are announced. New threads are posted at around 00:00 UTC-8 on the first Saturday of the month whenever the fuck I feel like it.
>Where do I get them?

I use ARCADE (MAME minus MESS, basically) for almost everything, and Model2Emu/Supermodel/DEmul/Flycast for Sega's 3D boards. Flycast has a Libretro core, and I think Supermodel has one, but I'm not certain. I'm too lazy to figure out loaders for x86 boards, and I'm too principled to use Teknoparrot.

Considering the recent failed revival of the game(yet again). I've been getting the itch to restart our monthly game nights of it. I'll try to keep hosting once a month on the first weekend of the month. It'll be on max like always. Which you can get here 
https://www.s4max.com/

The next game will be on the 5th. At 20:00 GMT.

There is aa thread on the other website too. Cross posting here since a lot of the old players may not be following both websites.

Feel free to discuss the failure that was the vfun revival, dump old clips and screenshots. Or host yourselves.

FPS in black in white for better or worse, since you can't see shit and everything looks bland. They added white paint in the most obvious places for you to jump and also white ladders. They also added a flashlight to explore ventilation ducts or dark areas, the thing is you CAN'T use the flashlight outside of those areas, making it useless when you can't SEE SHIT in some part of the game, specially the sewers.
Items are easy to identify since they move like cartoons, but sadly they forgot to add that feature to items you can interact with like ladders, switches, doors or breakable boxes.
The story is about "muh racisum."
Gameplay? It is fun, shooting mice is fun, blowing mice is fun, melting mice is fun, wide variety of weapons and each level is different with new a new enemy to kill. It also has movement types like, dash, double jump, tail whip and helicopter tail, to move around the maps, not used a lot sadly, but I think it would get between you and killing enemies if they rely on them to heavily, but exploring the levels is fun, trying to look for collectables and weapon upgrade papers, the downside is sometimes you could break the game, which happened to me 2 times and also sadly, the game gives you the collectibles if you miss them, but not the weapon upgrade for some strange reason.
So yeah, the only good thing about the game is the game, the gameplay is fun and tammy is cute, bosses are also fun to fight with different gimmicks.
