Have you played this year's GOTY yet, anon?
>A visual novel? Pass.
This is not your average visual novel. This is a visual novel with a very in-depth photograph mechanic with objectives. Even more in-depth than the previous DOAX games. Essentially, a VN mixed with Pokemon Snap, as well as some minigames sprinkled in.
The reason the photo mode is so fun, is that you can enter it at any time, and move the camera at any angle to take picture of these beautifully detailed, fully-rigged 3D, which you can dress anyway you want.
They're some of the most impressive real-time models I've seen. The little lip movements, as well as the soft, flustered cheeks when they're embarrassed, and of course, the girls are so cute.
I hope they continue this visual novel venture, because they're a lot of DOA girls that didn't make the cut.
I went for Misaki in my first playthrough. She won my heart.
>How do I play it?
Well, you can't buy it, even if you wanted to. It's region-locked on most digital stores, so don't fret on torrenting it.
I, myself, played it on my hacked PS4, which is the worst way to play it, due to long-ass loading times, but the models still looked beautiful at least.

It's downgraded DoA5 with less content in every way possible and made specifically for appealing to the FGCfags.

Anything to do with the Zone.
Don't just stand there, come in.

I looked in the catalog and there wasn't anything, and it's sdalger so there should be.

Some standalone mods (free):
https://www.moddb.com/mods/lost-alpha (1.4005 DC was the most fun imo)
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly (This one is really good but the crafting is extremely autistic. I suggest using the game settings to tweak the economy and skipping the crafting entirely.)
https://www.moddb.com/mods/doctorx-call-of-the-zone (This is neat in a SLIGE map sort of way with generated quests and a freeplay style. The main modder behind this died a while ago. RIP in pepperoni diet sausage.)

Anomaly's Chernobyl Relay Chat was pretty based for a while, but the trannies had found it last time I looked.

No wasn't it this fucking morons fault we never got anything after CoP and maybe more faction spinoffs? The x-ray engine still looks good today, it would not have been a problem and people including modders would have been all over it. Greedy jews who won't share wealth with their genius employees are the problem in this case. It's pretty much unforgivable.
Didn't some of the core developers behind X-Ray fuck off and founded 4A, proved by the fact that they then proceeded to build a similar engine for Metro and kept using and upgrading it up until 2019 (Metro Exodus). They also fell for the unreal engine meme later though.

Post your build list or current specifications, including a monitor: https://pcpartpicker.com/
Provide specific use cases (like playing vidya, editing or programming).
Specify your budget and region.
Think twice before deciding to buy something to avoid buyer's remorse.

At least one PCIe 4.0 M.2 slot.
Good VRM (power delivery) is required for CPUs like the i5 13500 and above.
Don't pair a K CPU with a B mobo chipset.

Still made in china and since it doesn't perform better anymore what's the point in paying more.
It's basically the same thing as the Noctua / ASUS / Nvidia / Corsair etc situation, they were pricier with good reasons then they decided to just not do anything with the lead or worse actively made their shit worse and make you pay more for it.

Any fellow Elona players here? As a Kumiromi-worshipping farmer, I'm still having a lot of fun with the OOMSEST version. I've got autosaves disabled so I can savescum from time to time, but I try not to abuse it too much.
I was lucky enough to get the ridiculously good stomach mutation that lets me eat non-food items, helping me free up a lot of item space and develop my attributes and abilities frequently. Not to mention it helps me save money and keep corpses too.
Tailoring is some pretty good stress relief. The quality of the robes I craft is random, and whenever I get one I don't want to keep, I can eat it or sell it.
Anyway, I'm preparing myself for the upcoming annual "Baby Day", a.k.a. Party Day event on July 24. In case you didn't know, that's when shitloads of Bards spawn in "Party Time" quest instances and you can go on a Bard-killing spree all day long to collect tons of valuable instrument items, music tickets and more.

Add feed option to pets to feed them from the interact menu instead of the floor like a dog. I also use sort spells by spell type. The rest are you to  you. 
>Gameplay tweaks
Big one. Gather items at the end of party time. Pets heal other pets, share gold for performance (gold lets your pets train their potentials). Others are up to you and this may require some wiking to see what the changes are.

I've played a lot of elona and am by no means a master. It took me years to get to the 3rd continent and I've probably got a save file thats nearly a decade old. I tend to take long breaks before the urge takes me again. 
Eventually I'll run on over to Elins inn but I would at least like to take a crack at killing a god first, plus all the optional bosses and what not to slay. Its a fun time, take your time, learn, look up the wiki, ask questions, and don't forget to spend those platinum coins. 
And remember, Big sis is best god.

I didn't care much for portable video gaming as a kid, I had one of those bootleg Brick Game things, which I liked, and eventually got a GBA with a few cartridges for it, though I didn't enjoy the dark screen all that much, so I barely played it compared to my home consoles. I play mostly on handhelds nowadays though, the busy days with little time to play, mixed in with the comfort of being able to play while I lay down in bed, has really won me over recently. It's crazy how many are coming out nowadays, since Nintendo struck gold with the Switch.

How do you feel about playing on the go? What about playing in bed comfortably? Do you have a bunch of handhelds or just a few? What are your favorites from the ones you do own and how would you rate them in general? It'd be cool to have a thread where we can share this.

Forget about the absolute state of hollyjew.
Just pitch your dream movie about a game you would like to see adapted. The synopsis, key details, starring actors or voice actors if it is animated, practical effects or CGI or both, etc, etc.

Here's my pitch for a DOOM movie:
>The first scene shows a Mars space facility, desolated, run-down and filled with human corpses. We are introduced to our mute nameless protagonist, a marine making its way through the facility, already covered in blood, with a small arsenal of weapons.
>He comes upon a double barrel shotgun when he hears something drawing near. He encounters several imps and zombified, former soldiers. An opening action sequence continues.
>After the sequence, we're brought back to a flashback. The protagonist is a newly recruited marine, who will be joining a squad of other 3 marines to investigate an accident in the Mars facility.
>The movie would change between flashbacks of the marine squad investigating and bonding, and present day scenes of the protagonist finding new weapons and testing them against new demons, as we find out what happened to his crew through the remnants of the facility.
>The movie would also change between third and first person perspectives. The first person sequences would be similar to those in the movie Hardcore Henry (2015).

Long story short, autism. Short story long, collecting weird little dudes and also I learned to lay JRPGs wrong given my main exposures were Pokemon, SaGa 2, and Super Mario RPG. Unfortunately the RPG part has become dogshit and you can't even properly collect weird little dudes anymore so I can't even remotely say I like it anymore unfortunately. But I'm also the kind of guy who got turned off by Bravely Default II (not to be confused with Bravely Second, the sequel to Bravely Default, which is not to be confused for the Bravely Second mechanic in Bravely Default: For the Sequel which is essentially an enhanced version of Bravely Default released in Japan that was the basis for the English localized version) being speed based instead of round based so as I said before, autism.

What did you think of the Pokémon movie ? I never played Detective Pikachu but I assume it didn't flesh out a futuristic world where Pkmn are fully integrated into society, so this should remain to the movie's credit

Maybe not in the punch harder shonen trope way, but Ash spends his time begging his Pkmns to behave. I didn't realize it as a kid but Ash did a lot of team building kek.

I did not watch Dick Pik because why would anyone care about film based on a weird 3DS spin-off that took way too long to develop where they replaced Christopher Robin with a black guy and had to make his dad white so the story about his missing dad could actually have a conclusion. If you're going to do something based on a weird nonsense spin-off (or really any adaptation) the core emotional content of the film should be at least tangentially related to the theme of the original media it's based on. Unfortunately Pokemon lacks that far too often so it's like trying to get blood out of a stone but dammit I've tried.
You know what, let's do a bit of an exercise on this sort of thing, as an example of what kind of thing you can do. Based on simple observation of the gameplay, and reading the actual text of basically every mainline title, we can conclude that there's a core theme of teamwork going on. Going into other media it seems to occasionally be a bit more narrowed down to the concept of "partners", the Anime originally excessively dealt with Ash and Pikachu as partners, the Mystery Dungeon games are basically about the relationship between partners outside of whatever disaster is happening, and there's plenty of other lesser examples of this more narrow approach as essentially writing 7 characters is a pain in the ass. Now, let's view the first set of my proposed ideas in

I agree.

Same thing applies to Cuphead, if it didn't look as cool as it does with that old 1930's cartoon aesthetics, i doubt many people would have given that game a chance.
