Okay everyone, there's a FREE Adventure-RPG hybrid game I feel like sharing because the game is surprisingly fucking good and so I need to run my mouth about it. Heroine's Quest is a spiritual successor to Drug Wars the Hero's Quest (which was later renamed to Quest for Glory after some legal shit) series, that was released on December 26th, 2013, and it's perhaps the only such spiritual successor that deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as them. It's like someone took a point & click adventure game and added a dollop of RPG mechanics and abilities that have actual fucking non-combat utility, along with combat.
I have been missing the feeling of a RPG that isn't hack & slash slop, where the game has actual fucking gameplay outside of fucking combat and your stats and skills matter for more than fucking combat, for a long-ass time, so this game has been a right breath of fresh air for me. The game is basically a point & click adventure game but with actual RPG mechanics on top. You pick one of three classes and then you get to pick between cranking up your stats and adding cross-class skills to your character, allowing you to do new shit. Every weapon has its own tricks and combat moves and if you aren't a warrior you should contemplate avoiding combat until you're strong enough. Some content is gated behind skills, some of it behind stats, and some of it is restricted by character class (warriors can use better weapons and armor and sorceresses get the best combat spells and I dunno what rogues get). You level up stats and skills by practicing them. Use some common sense for how to raise a stat and you will figure it out. Use a walkthrough if you fail at life. Seriously, check this shit out and play it (no I am not some kind of 12-years-late shill for a free game). I recommend you immediately crank up the difficulty and avoid using the map, as it's too fucking handhold-y. The game starts on easy mode which is for scrubs. Also there are bonus bosses on highest difficulty.

>Advice on building or upgrading
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.
>Motherboards
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.
>CPUs
HTPC(4K60)/Web Browsing: 5600G, 14100/12100
Vidya: 7600, 7500F, 12600K, 12700KF; budget: 5600, 12400F
Overkill vidya: 7800X3D; alternate: 14600K/13600K
Workstation: 7950X, 14700K, 7900X; budget: i5 13500
AM4 upgrade: 5600, 5800X3D
Avoid iGPU-less CPUs, 5600X (if it is more expensive than the 5600)
>CPU coolers
Air: Phantom Spirit EVO/Peerless Assassin 120 SE; budget: Freezer 36 Air
Liquid: Arctic Liquid Freezer III
Avoid liquid coolers with a single 120mm fan.
>RAM
DDR4: Zen3/AM4 - 2x 16GB 3600 MT/s CL18; for locked "non-K" 12th/13th/LGA1700 - 2x 16GB 3200 MT/s CL16
DDR5: Zen4/AM5 - 2x 16GB 6000 MT/s CL30; for unlocked "K" 13th/14th/LGA1700 - 2x 16GB 6400MT/s CL32
Slower kits are also fine, if much cheaper. Just make sure you check the benchmark comparisons.
Note that the sweetspots are bound to change with the upcoming Zen5 and Meteor Lake processors.
>SSDs
Avoid: outdated Samsung 970 Evo Plus, cheapest poorfag NVMe SSDs.
https://ssd.borecraft.com/
>GPUs
Avoid: GPUs that were used for shitcoin mining, 4070 Ti, 4060 Ti, 3050, NVIDIA GPUs in general if you're a Linuxfag.
1080p: used 3070/3060 Ti, 4060/3060 12 GB, 7600/6650 XT/6600 XT; budget: 6600; poorfag: used 2060

Production: 4090, used 3090; budget: 4060 Ti 16GB; poorfag: 3060 12GB
>12VHPWR
DO NOT USE ANGLED 12VHPWR ADAPTERS
Fully seat a 12VHPWR connector in its socket, otherwise the connection can melt.
>PSUs
Avoid: untested units, Bronze/Silver rated (assuming you live in yuroland).
Not worth buying a new PSU unless it's ATX 3.0 compliant.
Aim for 50-75% PSU utilization at full system load.

>Case (from $ to $$$)
mATX: I don't fucking know.
ATX: Lian Li Lancool 216, Lian Li Lancool III, Fractal Torrent.
AVOID: 'Silent' cases, fanless cases, Corsair 4000D airflow, Montech AIR 903 Base (awful stock fans).
>Monitors
Avoid: panels with less than 120 Hz refresh rates, without a single DisplayPort input and Variable Refresh Rate technology (G-Sync/FreeSync).
Check professional reviews for any monitor before you buy at sites like TFTCentral, pcmonitors.info, Monitors Unboxed, or RTINGs.
The bottom tier monitor for any decent gaming build has a 144+ Hz 24" 1080p IPS panel, of which there are many on market for around $125 (some great ones go even as low as $100).
Aim for a panel with low response times and perceived motion blur mode (Black Frame Insertion).
1440p 27" high refresh IPS is a common target for many new builds. 1440p is relatively easy to drive with even mid-range graphics cards.
Decent 2160p (4K) gaming monitors start at around $500.
OLED monitors have good HDR (including infinite contrast) and nearly instant pixel response times. However, potential burn-in is an important consideration for OLED monitors.
TL;DR: They all suck.

DOMINOS, RISE OF THE PIZZAMAN MAN
It's so nice, they had it twice edition
Well what is this "Dominons" is it safe for my kids?
Fuck no, that little autistic faggot is going to be screaming about the overpowered jews from his bedroom at 3am.
Dominions is a fantasy turn-based strategy game created by two dudes. One of them is a teacher.
The game combines a simple presentation with an extremely wide array of strategic options, including over 3400 units, 1100 spells and 400 magic items. Turns are resolved simultaneously,
It has simplistic graphics but is easily moddable and extremely deep.
Dominions is set in a fantasy world that draws inspiration from historical nations, cultures and myths. You will not encounter the elves of conventional fantasy in this game. Instead you might lead a nation of vanir from old norse myth. Aztecs, romans, israelites OY VEY!! , greeks, kievian rus and lovecraftian horrors are just a few of the inspirational sources of the game.
Basically, it's an autist’s wet dream of a strategy game.

https://illwiki.com/dom5/start
>Blitzserver for hosting games
https://beta.blitzserver.net/games
This game is a hell of a learning curve but if it tickles your autism you are in for a treat. The game is split between 3 "ages" Early, Middle, and Late with nations rising and falling as time marches on. This includes the units they posses, magic they can use, and spells available. There's a ton of nuance into how you can play with the most powerful statement being "it depends".
The game is playable in singleplayer mode and I've been told the AI in 6 is good for a knifefight in a phonebooth but the game really shines in multiplayer. Much like Kenshi, getting your assbeat makes you more powerful when seeing what a living breathing person does to you. It's taught me the value of mages, thugging, super combatants and what kind of retarded blesses you can do.
There are a lot of concepts in game to wrap your head around such as thugging and item creation, including the intimidating stats screen for a unit. But don't let it stop you, the game is complex, not complicated.
And if you don't want that just play Mictalin with a hellbless and go to town before you burn up as a glorious phoenix.
There is currently a ZZZchan game up and I'm sure anons would be willing to join more if asked. Don't be shy to ask about concepts in the thread.
Go now my son, play Dominions, make mistakes, learn, and rise to become the true pantankoman!.
I never beat the final boss fight in FF7. I just couldnt do it no matter how hard i tried so i looked up a guide and bred the most op chocobo to get the most op attack in the game only for me to almost lose again. I won but i felt no accomplishment.
I got lost in Chrono Trigger early on and didnt know how to navigate anywhere so i had to look up a guide.
I played Counter Strike Go for over 1500 hours.
I never got a nuke in any of the Call of Duty games.
I couldnt beat the Dark Souls 3 tutorial boss.
I have looked up several puzzle solutions just because i couldnt solve them after a few minutes.
I bought Battleborn
Archive of previous thread: https://archive.ph/K9xml
The purpose of this thread is to document and discuss Nintendo's recent actions towards censoring third-party games released on their platforms. As in, games that Nintendo has demanded that companies alter despite having no participation in any step regarding the game's development and release. This point on the subject needs to be emphasized because of two reasons.
The first is that people try to deflect such censorship practices for the purposes of so-called "regional differences", such as different regional laws and restrictions on game releases. This is not that issue as these are games that may have been released previously in the region sometime in the past decade or two, or the game is still being released unaltered on a competing platform like PlayStation or Xbox that still follows the same restrictions and/or even has their own. Second is that, despite censoring their own games, Nintendo actually has a history of leaving third-parties alone regarding what content is allowed to be inserted into their games, a topic I will be getting into in the following post. Regardless, if you JUST want a list of “all” instances of games being censored on the Nintendo Switch (And the upcoming Switch 2) regardless of reason, I suggest that you look at these two following links:
https://archive.ph/S0pfk
https://archive.ph/oaP9T
But why make this an issue? Back in 2019, Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa made the following declaration in response to a question about restricting content present in video games released on Nintendo’s systems: https://archive.ph/RkxJm
>Q11: Regarding restrictions on expression. Some other platforms have their own restrictions other than third-party organizations such as CERO. How about Nintendo?
<A11: Nintendo entrusts a third-party organization with the task of providing objective ratings for its own products and third-party software prior to its release. If the platform operator arbitrarily chooses to do so, it would seriously impede the diversity and fairness of game software. The parental control function also allows for restrictions to be put in place.
In addition to this statement, Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser recently made the following statement less than a week ago: https://archive.ph/nrYHD
<We always want to attract the best talent we can and retain that talent. We also believe it’s important for that talent to be diverse in terms of their backgrounds, their experiences, and their understandings because our players are diverse. So we strive to have diversity that reflects our players in our organization.
In some ways, it mirrors a similar statement that Sony had made back in 2018 when they were in the middle of their own scandal for censoring games released on PlayStation: https://archive.ph/X2wGz
There are also indications that this is an official policy coming down from Nintendo proper in Japan, based both of the list that you’ll see below (That includes Japanese exclusives and Japanese versions games being effected) and other people researching into the matter confirming details with other industry insiders: https://archive.is/ApYH8#post-1477584
On top of this, there are other strange policies going into place such the obscure region-locking of the Switch 2, which has one version exclusive to Japan (And Japan alone) and another version for the rest of the world, including regions neighboring Japan like South Korea and Taiwan receiving this “worldwide” version of the system: https://archive.ph/I9KmI
And thus, it is the purpose of this thread to make people aware of Nintendo’s actions regarding this entire matter. What you choose to do with this information is up to you.
Now that that is out of the way, here is a list of third party games known to be censored and/or had their release canceled on Nintendo’s systems. This will be sorted by year of announcement/release, with the effected titles being listed in alphabetical order:
>2022
<Hot Tentacles Shooter (Canceled)
https://archive.ph/rAxny
<Duel Princess (Pulled after release)
<Massage Freaks (Canceled)
https://archive.ph/akc2e
This year is considered to be an "outlier", with some arguing that these releases should not be considered a part of Nintendo’s recent actions given the large span of time between them and later events happening. I disagree on this matter, and think they should be included since they are effected by the exact circumstance being described, but I wanted to make this consideration known.

>What the fuck is this?
XPiratez is a total conversion for X-COM about naked musclegirls, stealing shit, kidnapping people and getting dogs killed. Also liberating the world from the dead hand of the Star Gods, but details.
>What the FUCK is this?
It's effectively a whole new squad tactics game in the OpenXcom engine. Forget (almost) everything you know about X-COM because every mechanic has been upgraded, tweaked or replaced in some way. You're sleazy pirates who know almost nothing about the fucked-up world of XPiratez, so taking enemies alive is much more important, the tech tree is massive and damn near anything can and will show up at some point. Lordfag is frankly insane for doing this but godspeed. Screen sharing is handled with noVNC on a dedicated server and chat is a cytube room, so all you need is a relatively recent browser to get started. Just show up and you'll be assigned a gal/catgirl/peasant and maybe a dog or two to pilot.
Everyone else is also free to do the usual ad-hoc emulator netplay fuckaround threads have been known for.

HOW TO INTO PIRATEZ
>Read this, it's outdated but still gives you the gist of what makes Piratez unique: https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Strategy_(Piratez)
>no seriously, read it
>your choices are uber gals, catgirls and peasants
<ubers are the "default", strong, tough and have 80ish TUs at game start and get free night vision, but on catgirl route (what we're doing) every one is precious because casualties are very hard to replace
<catgirls have better TUs, skills (especially Firing and Reactions) and a punch that does lethal when everyone else does stun, but are significantly less beefy than ubers
<peasants are X-COM rookies with everything that implies, but they're cheap and the only thing you can recruit on the catgirl route early game so you'll probably be forced to play them at some point; try to take grenades and a bow since throwing is what they're least bad at
>pirate dogs are disposable scouts and item caddies that run fast and have enough reactions to spot enemies before they get gunned down by reaction fire, but don't underestimate their TU-draining bark and melee bite
>no seriously they're disposable, total dog death is almost a prerequisite to a good mission, that said try not to get them killed too early
>normal X-COM battlescape mechanics apply, so don't run off into reaction fire turn 1, remember your own reaction fire requires TUs, etc
>melee works in this game, but it works a lot better if you attack from behind
>take atombeer or moonshine for energy recovery and vodka for fatal wounds as soon as they become available, energy actually matters here and fatal wounds will dumpster your gals' stats and keep them in the hospital for weeks afterward
>take bandages (or bandage kits if they're available) to treat other units' fatal wounds
>this includes downed enemies with the blood drop icon over them, they're almost always worth more alive (big exception: zombies)
>remember to equip armor (click on the paper doll in the equip phase) before you start the mission; lordfag will usually tell you what to pick but if not pirate and sailor are rarely bad choices
Controls:
>Ctrl-click to run (costs less TU but more energy)
>Middle click for extra info on pretty much anything
>Q to search on most inventory and list screens
>Number keys to center camera on spotted enemies
>Arrow keys or WASD to pan camera
>Holding ALT while hovering over a weapon in the inventory will show the calculated damage for the current unit
>Q/E in battle to use left/right weapon
>I for inventory (also works on screens that usually wouldn't allow it)

i haven´t played something as tedious since Castle Sentinel´s Dungeon in Daggerfall...
i guess all you have to do to sell a shit game is to pretend its an art project and use the "Narrative" buzzword untill libcucks eat it up and make 90+ videoessays on it huh?
discuss similar experiences, or yell at me for not kowtowing to the cultural zeitgeist, pick your poison
Post your shitty gameplay and get bullied by other anons.
Talk about some proper nippon Visual Novels! Whether you're playing one right now or a novel you've already completed.
No fucking english parody shit allowed!
Take your doki doki and shove it up your faggot ass!
>Eiyuu Senki
I dont know how but it took me 116 hours to beat it. I only skipped the optional dungeon. Let me just tell you that it was a long fucking week of suffering playing that game. Just nonstop talking from the characters in different scenes and just when you think it will stop it just keeps going. Then you go into battle again and then you're in for a long fucking talking session again. Rinse and repeat for the whole fucking game. Theres like maybe 6 or so sex scenes (probably more it was like 2 years ago i beat it) and to even get a sex scene you need to conquer someone and that means a fuckton of battles and a fuckton of talking. I spent a week straight just fucking playing this shit and by the end of it i was pretty much mindbroken by how long and shitty it was. A week of nonstop fapping/sweating/boredom and just waiting for it to end. Another thing that bothered me was their faces. If you look at the cover art you can see how the faces are designed. Their chins are like triangely and pointy and it makes the characters look retarded. Look at this screencap i took from one of the faces in the cover. It looks like she has downs syndrome! So theres that. I dont know what else to say. People say that Eiyuu Senki Gold is supposed to be alot better but it looks exactly like the original game.

A thread to post and discuss your favorite soundtracks in videogames.
What have you been listening to lately?
I've been listening to 3D Sonic games OST. Crush 40 gives all of these games a pretty good soundtrack. It's usually what I end up remembering when playing sonic games.
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.
SOULSLIKES
Which is a name I hate but it's sort of become a way to describe the Demons souls, Dark, Elden, ect, flavor of games. So fuck it, I'm going to use it. This also includes non Fromsoft titles that are in a similar vein.
With the current DLC for ER on the way I've taken to actually trying to beat the game. I find that what happens is that I play it, get bored of my build, then try another one. Recently since picking it back up I've stuck with a dex/fai build and I'm enjoying it enough. I'm tempted eventually to do a build around just using those Carin sword sorceries and not even bother using a weapon but I'm sure I'll change that a few times before I settle on another one.
I got to Radahn and he is slapping my shit because I forgot to level VIG and now I have to go see that one bitch and rebirth or get good but I think there are a few more things around that I can do to get some souls runes to pump my vig up a few points. I don't know how many anons here play but I've always thought it would be fun to try and play together, or at least do a boss or two.
Speaking of the Soulslike older from titles are Kingsfield and ShadowTower are more than welcome as well as are any other recent games that have come out emulating them, or older titles that are the same. Just talk about gaymes.
The thread to post the things
that really make (You) think.
Very simple question:
What do people actually want out of film and TV adaptations of video games?
This concept has been tossed around for the past going on almost 40 years, and it seems like no one can really answer what makes something a "good adaptation". The "closest" I've seen is Anons parading around Postal as being the "best" film adaptation of a game ever made, but that movie was terrible. Mortal Kombat is another "good" one, but it changes significant aspects of the game's plot. Some of the one's I've liked, there was Angelina's Tomb Raider, Anderson's RE series, Prince of Persia, Double Dragon, Need for Speed, and The King Of Fighters.
What are other Anon's takes on the "good" adaptations that have come out? Or what makes a "good" adaptation?

This isn't an art board. Give the Drawfags their time to do their thing and leave the thread-making to them.
Anyone attempting to make this thread in a newfag/cuckchan/low effort manner will be met with disdain and mockery.
Modern technology in gaming is such a farce if PS2 games looked like this, I don’t think we will ever see another jump in graphics as big as PS2 was
Instead of frowning at the future, How about we celebrate the past?
One of the best years in videogames turned 20 this year, and I figured, Why not make something special for it?
There's this video that compiles footage of multiple games from that era, but I think it could be improved upon.
For one, it's 16:9 instead of 4:3, and it's missing some games. It would also feel more special if it's homemade footage instead of existing walkthroughs.
So just grab Unregistered Hypercam 2, or better yet, record your CRT TV with a shitty camera while you're playing a 2004 game:

Tabletop and Board Games
Want to play board games and play video games at the same time? Now you can.
Thread to discuss and schedule/play board games that could be played through tabletop simulator or other board game simulators.
Hosting is as easy as just opening a lobby and getting the game's workshop item.
if you prefer to play board games through other platforms, like Tabletop Playground, Board Game Arena, or game's digital editions, feel free to talk about it.
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).
That's all I got so far. Maybe I'll do a script or something.
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.
Suikoden I and Suikoden II HD remaster dropped and it’s the best time to get into it, feel free to discuss the other games, tell us how you got into the series, share screenshots and moments.
Also Konami announced that the series will continue depending on how well it sells. So be hopeful.
WHAT ARE YOU PLAYING
In this thread a bunch of random autistic people from the internet talk about games they've been playing, or plan on playing.
Then they complain about them or recommend them to their fellow autists while occasionally posting anime titddys.
Myself? Videogames? Of course not, never touch the stuff.
Well ok, if you insist.
Recently I've gotten into Pathfinder Wrath of the Righteous. Previously I was playing Kingmaker but due to my horrid indecisiveness and mental illnesses I always get bored of my class. Also Kingdom management is kinda boring with occasionally far reaching consequences that can fuck your save over later in the game. In all likelihood I'll probably jump back into it one more time at some point but until then, WoTR. Wrath I've enjoyed, it puts you into the action a lot sooner and while crusade mode is boring it's not a dealbreaker. Also you can become a Lich which is pretty baller. It's also on GoG which means its F R E E.
I then also started another yet another Starsector game with the intent to do something different like join a faction right from the get go and not do the same shit I always do. I then proceeded to do the exact same thing I always do, but I'm having fun. I modded the game to shit and want to try out this new ARMA factions storyline. Apparently you help them reclaim a planet. The factions fun, uses mechs which feel great to fly around in and you also get a qt pilot from the faction. With Rapesector installed you can hug and even h*eadpat her. There are also a few other mod factions with something like "storylines" which I would like to get around to playing. That or just build up a fleet and brutally rape their OCs, either way I have a plan.
So anons, what have (you) been playing?

Guide to a happy share thread
>Leechers
1. Before requesting, search online and use distributed search engines (e.g. InfraSearch, Opencola, YaCy, FAROO).
2. Look in CheckBeforePosting, and the archives.
3. If a password is required check the archives, especially the source thread if it's listed.
4. Be as specific as possible. If you have the cover art of the file you want, post it in the share thread.
5. Links to files will purposely be misleading by having spaces, lines, keys & passwords split in the post. This includes torrent hashes.
a. If you see a string of hex characters (e.g. c12fe1c06bba254a9dc9f519b335aa7c1367a88a) with or without dashes, it is torrent hash (remove dashes).
b. If your torrent client is shit, prepend magnet:?xt=urn:btih: to the string.
c. Find and Replace (sed/tr/awk) is your friend.
>Uploaders
1. When in doubt, upload. Ask questions later.
2. Upload to multiple hosts and keep a local copy if space permits.
3. Obfuscate your links; encode them in base64, and/or indirectly link via a private paste bin (e.g. zerobin.net) to confuse bots and web crawlers.
4. Protect your uploads with a password, key, or generator. Rename the files something random (e.g. their checksums). Maybe even pad files to the nearest GB or so to confuse content identification engines.
5. If your connection is stable, it is extremely advisable to self host using anonymity tools like Freenet, I2P, Gnunet, distributed NNTP or MixMinion/Mixmaster.

How to use emotes
From the README of https://github.com/wootguy/emotes :
Type ".e list" to list named emotes.
Type ".e off" to stop your emote.
Type ".e <name> [speed]" to play a named emote.
Type ".e <sequence> [mode] [speed] [start_frame] [end_frame]" for more control.
<> = required. [] = optional.
<sequence> = 0-255. Most models have about 190 sequences.
[mode] = ONCE, FREEZE, LOOP, or ILOOP. Doesn't have to be all caps.
[speed] = Any number, even negative. The default speed is 1.
[start_frame/end_frame] = 0-255. This is like a percentage. Frame count in the model doesn't matter.
Just like that shitty thread about anon journaling his game, I will also do one. But i will make a shitty game, because I have never made one before. Also I have a job so the time allocation will be tough, but it will be a good challenge. If you see me miss a single day report, you are allowed to call me a nigger faggot. The tools and programing language,...uh im thinking alright.
The entire point of this thread is to prove that other faggot is not commited enough to making games, but I will. Thank you for listening anons, I will do my best alright.
One of the best ARPGs and and also one of the game that got Tencent's foot into the Western market is getting a sequel. Since this place is so slow, I park a thread here.

Three years of zzz edition
Monday nights at 7PM PST/10PM EST
What's the Jackbox Party Packs?
The Jackbox Party Packs are games in which you can play with
people in a single room or stream them live with others around the world. They can range to coming up with witty punchlines and jokes in Quiplash, creating strange T-shirts in TeeKO or wondering what the prompt is in Drawful!
We're watching this shitpost of a movie tomorrow night at (4:30pm PT/ 6:30pm ET/10:30pm UTC) on https://cytu.be/r/OverlookTheater
Come join us if you have nothing better to do than shitpost with anons while getting drunk and eating pizza.
We're also watching other unrelated movies after it, if you don't care for brown bricks in minecrap.
I don't think I've seen a single /gsg/ thread on zzz since day zero and I decided I've had enough of waiting for someone else to make it. The one on smug, which you can find here https://smuglo.li/vg/res/1231.html , was made a staggering four (4) years ago, only got 200 posts and the last was made 11 months back, so I think it's time we get our own and hopefully get not glacial levels of activity.
So, what are you playing? Still playing Parajew shit and incesting your entire family in CK2, blobbing in Vicky or has anyone been as far as decided to trying something new more like for a change?
Speaking of Parajew, the latest HOI4 expansion "Arms Against Tiranny" dropped a few weeks back adding a few more mechanics, which should've been in the base game to begin with but are instead, in typical Parajew fashion, locked behind a paywall, like slightly more in depth supply networks, transports, a barebones international arms dealing market and new focus trees for Scandinavian countries. I decided to give it a spin and pirated it for the 15th time and I'm now playing an (read: restarted a dozen times because I keep getting repeatedly fucked over by one thing or another) a-historically focused campaign as Shittaly trying to gigablob the entire universe and it's not going particularly great. Here's a recap of the events so far:
>wrapped up the nigger correction expedition just before March and justified against France while in the middle of it still
>knocked out the frogs by mid 38 after a rather slow and sloppy war, which I won 1:5 ratio, and yoinked all their navy which included 7 juicy BBs, 1 CV, a couple dozen light and heavy cruisers and over a hundred destroyers and subs
>barely managed to nick the the strategic Moroccan half of the strait of Gibraltar by declaring on nationalist Spain, sneaking in from France, making a quick push through an ever narrowing strip of land before it could get gobbled up by the other sides of the civil war and then nailing the peace conference just right to demand it and other minor bits of clay
>took less than a month and almost no casualties
>I'm starting to look at Uncle Adolf or the UK when fucking Marxist Portugal decides to declare war on me out of the blue
>they're landlocked so I just lmao naval invade them with not even a full army of nigger irregulars and own them in 3 weeks
>them being Marxist unfortunately translated to them also being in a faction with the USSR and now I'm at war with them but we are too far to fight
>meanwhile
>Germany is Germanying along doing typical somewhat historical path of annexing Austria, and then going to war with the Czechs and the rest of the balkans because they all decided to be in one faction
>Poland commies are about to win a civil war
>The UK and Japan have been doing fuckall
>Yugo balkanized
It is now almost Christmas 1938 and I'm preparing to invade Turkey from French Syria so I get access to the black sea and the Soviet border, also setting up some defenses in Portugal and the French/Spanish border because, since they're commies, I expect them to join the Soviets and the war as soon as they finish mopping up the anarchists. I'm not confident I can win against the soviets because I really don't have either enough divisions on the field or manpower to last, but they did fight a civil war so maybe they're not doing as well as usual.
Look at my blob in pic related 5 and post caps of your own blob or border gore or whatever. Also the infograph is several years out of date, it could use a revamp if anyone feels like doing free work.

DOMINIONS, RISE OF THE PACHINKO MAN
Well what is this "Dominons" is it safe for my kids?
no
Dominions is a fantasy turn-based strategy game created by two dudes. One of them is a teacher.
The game combines a simple presentation with an extremely wide array of strategic options, including over 3400 units, 1100 spells and 400 magic items. Turns are resolved simultaneously,
It has simplistic graphics but is easily moddable and extremely deep.
Dominions is set in a fantasy world that draws inspiration from historical nations, cultures and myths. You will not encounter the elves of conventional fantasy in this game. Instead you might lead a nation of vanir from old norse myth. Aztecs, romans, israelites OY VEY!! , greeks, kievian rus and lovecraftian horrors are just a few of the inspirational sources of the game.
Basically, it's an autist’s wet dream of a strategy game.
>Dom6mod inspector: This lets you browse units, spells and items in the game
https://larzm42.github.io/dom6inspector/
>Dom6wiki: Mostly up to date information on Dominions 6, may have to reference 5's wiki
https://illwiki.com/dom5/start
>Blitzserver for hosting games
https://beta.blitzserver.net/games
This game is a hell of a learning curve but if it tickles your autism you are in for a treat. The game is split between 3 "ages" Early, Middle, and Late with nations rising and falling as time marches on. This includes the units they posses, magic they can use, and spells available. There's a ton of nuance into how you can play with the most powerful statement being "it depends".
The game is playable in singleplayer mode and I've been told the AI in 6 is good for a knifefight in a phonebooth but the game really shines in multiplayer. Much like Kenshi, getting your assbeat makes you more powerful when seeing what a living breathing person does to you. It's taught me the value of mages, thugging, super combatants and what kind of retarded blesses you can do.
There are a lot of concepts in game to wrap your head around such as thugging and item creation, including the intimidating stats screen for a unit. But don't let it stop you, the game is complex, not complicated.
And if you don't want that just play Mictalin with a hellbless and go to town before you burn up as a glorious phoenix.
Go now my son, play Dominions, make mistakes, learn, and rise to become the true pantankoman!.

I am having an existential crisis so I decided that I need to make a game. However, I need you guys to tell me what kind of game to make.
Post your ebin game idea in this thread. Anything goes, but I won't spend more than a week or so on it. I will post the game and source code when I'm done.
They flood the market with all of these cruddy child-labor-built controllers. making it really hard to find legit controllers. Wii remote "Replacements" are the worst, Especially when family members can't seem to comprehend that one first party remote will be cheaper in the long run, than buying ten third party remotes that break within six months.
Now I feel a lot better for getting that out.
This is a thread that we’ve had a few times on 4/v/ and I want to see how it goes over here. Talk about Bionicle video games, the series overall, and the upcoming Masks Of Power.
New update!

DIGIMON DIGITAL MONSTERS
Well with Time Stranger on it's way and me wanted to get back into digimans I feel the need for a thread.
I don't know if there are any digifags here but it would be nice to see.
Played digimon world 1 and eventually beat it, I have no idea how the fuck little tommy and hiro were supposed to figure this shit out because I had a guide and didn't feel like I knew what I was doing. After the final boss my Metal Greymon took a massive shit and then died. I considered the game complete and despite having to do the dark areas was done with my playthrough.
I've tried the Re:digitize a few times on the PSP but never got super far in into it. I would like to try and beat it at some point especially since there is a newer version that came out for the 3ds. I have next order but want to attempt to beat Re digitize first.
Lastly there is Cyber Slueth and Hackers memory. I would say that Hackers memory has a bit more of an engaging story even if there is that twink that goes crazy for you. They could be a bit of a slog at some points but the story and the cute girls kept me coming back.
Now discuss digimon, or hate on it. God I hope Time Stranger is a good game, and like not good for Digimon, like an actual good game.
Chinese Man Sues Gaming Firm For Depression After Getting 4,800 Virtual Slaps
https://archive.ph/20250411005356/https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/chinese-man-sues-gaming-firm-for-depression-after-getting-4-800-virtual-slaps-8107018
>A long-time Chinese player of an online video game has dragged its developer to court, alleging he slipped into depression after being virtually slapped 4,800 times by in-game goods.
>Thousands of "slaps" in 'Three Kingdoms Kill Online' reportedly humiliated the man, who goes by the name Qiaoben and has been a fan for 15 years, reported the South China Morning Post.
>Mr Qiaoben claimed that during one game, he found his opponents would toss things such as eggs and straw sandals at his avatar, adding he'd get a virtual smack lasting longer than 90 seconds.
>He said he was hit with these items over 4,800 times in the last six months. Mr Qiaoben mentioned the encounter was humiliating because every player in the game could see these attacks.
>"Every time I am hit with eggs, I feel my self-esteem is harmed and I get depressed," Mr Qiaoben added.
>Players can either purchase the eggs and straw sandals for a nominal fee or get them for free during in-game activities.
>He claimed that the gaming company "allows" and "tolerates" gamers to throw these insulting objects at one another while making money off of the sales.
>Mr Qiaoben allegedly complained to customer support several times, but his concerns went unanswered. With no other choice, he chose to sue the business and demand damages.
>A spokesperson for the game developer earlier said these interactive elements have always been included in the game but intended to implement restrictions to control how they are used.
>The company also guaranteed to assist with Mr Qiaoben's lawsuit's legal proceedings, which has generated significant online conversation within the gaming world.
>Many players admitted to using these products as a means of vengeance after losing a match. Some even discussed ways to "save face" following a loss by throwing eggs repeatedly.
>Three Kingdoms Kill Online, created by a Hangzhou-based business and launched in 2009, takes place during the famous Three Kingdoms era in China (220-265). Matches run 10 to 30 minutes and feature four to eight players competing against each other.

Nintendo Boss Responds to $80 Mario Kart Price Tag with “Variable Pricing” Philosophy
https://archive.ph/20250408210106/https://thatparkplace.com/nintendo-variable-pricing/
>Last week’s reveal of Mario Kart World as an $80 digital title for the upcoming Nintendo Switch 2 sparked heated discussion across the gaming community. Coming in at $10 more than the already-increased $70 pricing standard, many fans expressed sticker shock at Nintendo—especially when paired with the Switch 2’s $449.99 retail price.
>Now, Nintendo of America president Doug Bowser (yes, that’s really his name, get it out of your system…) has weighed in, offering insight into the company’s evolving pricing strategy during an interview with The Washington Post.
>According to Bowser, Nintendo isn’t establishing a new universal baseline, but instead embracing what he called “variable pricing.”
>“We’ll look at each game, really look at the development that’s gone into the game, the breadth and depth of the gameplay, the durability over time and the repeatability of gameplay experiences,” Bowser said. “Those are all factors… So I think you can anticipate that there will be variable pricing, and we haven’t set a benchmark.”
>In other words, not every Nintendo game will cost $80—but some will. And Mario Kart World, the follow-up to Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, which sold over 67 million copies, is considered by the company one of Nintendo’s flagship offerings deserving of the premium tier.
>Not Every Game Will Hit $80
>Bowser pointed to the newly revealed Donkey Kong Bonanza as a prime example of Nintendo’s tiered approach. That game will launch at $69.99, aligning with what’s become the standard price point for top-tier titles on PlayStation and Xbox.
>Nintendo has experimented with pricing differences before. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was the company’s first $70 game, while its predecessor Breath of the Wild remained $60. Remakes like Link’s Awakening stayed at $60, despite major overhauls.
>“It’s more about what we think is right for our content, what is the right value for the consumers as they come into our platform,” Bowser added.
>A Brief History of Variable Pricing in Video Games
>While some consumers may see this new Nintendo pricing model as a break from tradition, the truth is—this is actually a return to how things used to be.
>1980s–1990s (NES, SNES, Genesis era):
>Game prices varied wildly. You might pay $39.99 for one title and $79.99 or more for another. Pricing was based on factors like:
>Cartridge size (More memory = more expensive manufacturing)
>Special chips (like the Super FX chip in Star Fox)
>Popularity of the IP (Final Fantasy and Chrono Trigger launched at premium prices)
>Retailers and publishers had far more flexibility back then, and gamers generally accepted the differences.
>Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild
>The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (2017), Nintendo
>2000s–Early 2010s (PS2, Xbox 360, Wii era):
>The industry shifted toward standardized pricing to streamline marketing and sales. Most major console releases were priced at $49.99, and eventually $59.99 when the HD era started.
>This move was driven by retail simplicity, consumer expectations, and a broader casual audience familiar with uniform pricing for movies and music.
>Modern Era (PS4, PS5, Switch, etc.):
>In the modern era, uniformity became the default—$59.99 was considered standard. Only recently have publishers returned to variable pricing.
>As we mentioned before, Tears of the Kingdom came out at $69.99. PlayStation first-party games (e.g., Demon’s Souls, Spider-Man 2) were also priced at $69.99. However, indie titles and AA releases are often priced between $30–$50.
>Spider-Man 2 Peter and Miles
>Miles Morales and Spider-Man in Marvel’s Spider-Man 2 (2023), Insomniac Games
>Now, Mario Kart World at $79.99 signals that Nintendo is comfortable charging more when it believes the content justifies it.
>So while the price may feel high compared to recent years, this isn’t unprecedented—it’s a reversion to an older, more flexible model that prioritizes development scope and content value over uniformity.
>Supporting a Diverse Ecosystem
>Bowser also confirmed Nintendo’s commitment to the original Switch ecosystem, which now boasts over 150 million units sold. There are no current plans to lower prices for the original models (Switch at $299, OLED at $349, Lite at $199), but Nintendo is watching consumer behavior closely.
>Mario Kart World Rail Grind
>A screenshot from the trailer to Mario Kart World – YouTube, Nintendo of America
>“Not all of them may be ready to jump to Switch 2,” Bowser noted. “Hopefully with time and with the right games, it’ll be compelling for them to want to come on.”
>Launch Still on Track Despite Preorder Delay
>Bowser’s interview took place just before Nintendo delayed Switch 2 preorders, which had been set to begin April 9. The decision was made to assess the impact of new tariffs announced by President Donald Trump, which are prompting many companies to revisit supply chain and pricing logistics.
>The Nintendo Switch 2
>The fully revealed Nintendo Switch 2 console – YouTube, Nintendo of America
>Nintendo reiterated that the Switch 2 will still launch on June 5, and preorder timing will be updated “at a later date.”
>The Bottom Line
>While the $80 price point for Mario Kart World may raise eyebrows, Bowser’s explanation offers valuable perspective. Nintendo isn’t shifting to a flat $80 model—it’s adopting a tiered, value-based strategy that reflects development effort, content scale, and replay value.
>Mario Kart
>A screenshot from the trailer to Mario Kart World – YouTube, Nintendo of America
>And for those who remember the days of $70–$80 SNES carts? This isn’t a price hike. It’s, for better or worse, a full-circle moment in gaming history.

Ok, niggers, post all your new or updated shit here. If you don't know what logo to use, consider using this or something similar. Thanks in advance for the contributions and definitely thank you for all the quality work done for the previous two boards, hopefully this is the last.
I don't like this sub-genre of games, whatever you want to classify them as.
I don't like them because they do nothing well. The gameplay always sucks; the stories are boring and the exploration isn't that enthralling.
Gameplay is self-explanatory, but I much prefer exploration in other types of games. In BioShock, the sense of exploration was very intimate and resulted in a very detailed environment. Exploring always felt dangerous, immediately rewarding and most importantly....focused; the same can be said of the Prey remake. They also have more interaction with the environment. In BioShock, you might have to melt some ice with your fire plasmid to get through a secret entrance or something like that. Even in third person games, I like exploration a lot more in something like Darksiders. In Darksiders, you use your abilities to find secret areas with rewards and these areas feel synergistic with the design of the level, instead of just being some meandering diversion.
And as far as the stories go that I'm sure people will disagree on, these games always have a sense of mundanity to me. They don't have any distinctive characters that become embedded in pop-cultural consciousness. Final Fantasy has a wealth of characters that perpetuate inside peoples' memories because those games are focused on a tight narrative and allot its inhabitants more attention and detail.
This is why I prefer oldschool BioWare games like the KOTORs and Jade Empire. They allowed for some exploration, but kept up with the theme of RPG gameplay and as a result, crafted tighter, more focused narratives with more distinctive characters. While Mass Effect isn't open-world like the other examples in my images, it's more bloated and tries to combine shitty cover shooter mechanics and things of that nature in a poorly assembled mess that results in boredom.
TLDR: I don't enjoy games like these because they're unfocused, bland and mediocre in the majority of their individual elements because they're trying to combine parts that don't fit that well together.
Look, I know I’m not the only one with younger relatives or their own kids on this board. What do you try to play with them? Are they lost to the endless ipad garbage or are they receptive to good games? Do you try to get them into weird shit you liked as a kid or just whatevers new/good? Does every kid know all about minecraft or fnaf despite trying to keep it away from them? They all do
I’ve had good luck with giving them older handhelds to play with or real open stuff for them to mess with like teardown or doronkowonko. Pic related is cause kirby games also work real well.

With the release of Dragon Dogma 2 itsuno immediately resigned from Capcom and started his own studio. This was the first clue that there’s definitely something. So what could’ve ticked Itsuno-san off?
At first I had completely nothing and probably we will never know officially, but some internet users noticed Monster Hunter Wilds reused some Dragon Dogma 2 animations, and since it released 1 year after they clearly were developed at the same time, not only this Dragon Dogma 2 looks better than MHW visually, as if the team of MHW was actually dedicated to DD2 at first.
https://youtu.be/gSdOVoved0Q
https://youtu.be/KBeA9HETRyM
What also struck me about the state of DD2 release is how barebones it was, like it’s not a sequel at all, like they stopped adding content midway and went to release it as is.
Now you might think it’s all ramblings with no concrete evidence, but here’s a catch, the producer of MHW is the son of Capcom’s CEO and founder Ryozo Tsujimoto. So you can imagine how he can get his way. also people pointed out that it’s very hard to get wine in DD2 and could be a reference to the Tsujimotos being stingy since they own a vineyard
So the scenario probably goes like this
>Itsuno gathers a team to make an open world rpg game called DD2
>MHW development starts a year after and they take resources and developers from DD2
>Itsuno feels insulted and disrespected more so since it’s the Tsujimotos
>stop being involved in the game but stays to make sure it doesn’t get cancelled
Makes sense to me atleast. Don’t get me wrong I still think Itsuno was partly at blame because 100% he could’ve released a better game, but he got too fee up with capcom that he fucked over his fans too in the process.
I shure do love me them crpg games.
What CRPGs are you nerds playing?
Currently I'm jumping between Pathfinder WOTR and RogueTrader. I find WOTR better than Kingmaker so far but I'll probably end up attempting to finish a playthrough of Kingmaker after I beat wrath at least once.
Mods reasonably bumplocked the other one since it was just a bunch shitflinging and obviously made with that intention in mind so here's my attempt to make one
As you know, 4chan went down and it will not be coming back for at least a couple of weeks and it's uncertain if it will at all, so to all the newfags, welcome. I will try my best to give you an idea of what to expect from zzzchan as well as some general information. As the other guy said, here's to hoping the mods spot me since this is the most active board and it's where this is most likely to be seen. A thread similar to this one but made by the admin himself can be found here >>>/meta/4978 so you can use that if you want to talk to him directly. The previous thread, if you want to catch up is here >>273796

Hope that covers it. Now video games please.
I've been trying a few nude mods, namely on the DOA Xtreme games.
It just feels lame and it's ironically enough, not as erotic as swimsuits and bikinis.
Take a pair of tits for example. For me at least, they tend to look more appealing when they're pushed together by a nice bra. It leaves more to the imagination.
Not only that, but the clothing brings them out more, while providing a nice, varied color palette.
That color palette is also important, because now that every character is naked, you can't tell them apart as easily, as when each one of them is wearing a unique piece of lingerie, each tailored for their personality.
Which is another negative, since collecting the vast amount of swimsuits is half the fun for a lot of these games, like GalGun, DOA and Senran Kagura.
I don't know, I think I just prefer the vanilla experience if I'm honest.
But what do you think, anon? Do you usually install nude mods in your vidya?
DOOM
Other retroFPS and retro inspired FPS can come too.
I'm legitimately surprised there is no Doom thread on the catalog, lets rectify that, shall we?
Post some DOOM.
Post some WADS.
Post some of its COPYCATS.
Post some other retro FPS like DUKE. I need to check up on the DNF restoration project
Post some new takes on an old formula like DUSK and all that jazz.
Post about the communities because GOSSIP is also fun.
Are you Mappin? Post that TOO
If you can map, offer assistance to young mappers, or make fun of their lack of skill. I'm not your dad
I myself have started to get back into Doom and have been skimming the Cacowards for some gold. I also need to beat Ashes 2063 so I can start on its second game, Through the Ashes. There was also the release of Reelism 2 a little while back which I have mixed feelings on, still worth playing though. I've also always considered making a list of gameplay mods and wads that complement each other well such as Rampancy with Highway Acceleroid Booster for muh robot theme. Lastly I like to just slam random on Doomworld and see what comes up. After this long you know there is some buried treasure just lurking in those archives, or its just fun to see what some random guy made 20+ years ago.
I have some of the older SoyouwanttoplaysomeDOOM infographics if anyone wants them for posterity or just can't be arsed to find them on the web.
NOW LETS FUCKING DOOM
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 game? Well now its considered a redemption arc something something. Basically some faggot youtuber made a video about how the developers are innocent and didnt deserve the hate and how the game is actually good now and now every dumb fucking normalfag parrots that shit.
I think i could maybe include Spec Ops The Line here aswell. I dont think anyone thought of it as more than a mediocre third person shooter when it released but in the past couple of years theres been a massive shift in opinion on how its somehow this DEEP game. The pretentiousness. These people sound exactly like the art people that pretend there is somehow some hidden meaning or something DEEP in some piece of shit. Its annoying because these are clearly not good games and yet people come to believe they are good because other people said so.
Here have a picture of the DEEEEEEEEP thought process behind the retarded pretentious developers behind Spec Ops The Line. Wow so DEEEEEEEEEEEEEP
The 7th generation kind of sucked for a large list of reasons, most of which had to do with ushering legions of normalfags into the hobby and connecting consoles to the internet. However, in hindsight the generation both lasted for a very long time (eight years from the release of the X360 to the Xbone) and marked the last time any console manufacturer would attempt to make a device that looked nice and let you do anything neat with it. The X360's HDD being easily removable and being stylistically consistent with its form factor is practically the product of a lost art compared to the modern spate of black and white rectangles that let you:
- Connect to the internet and buy live service microtransactions
- Post things to facebook with your always-listening microphone
- Fuck yourself in the ass if you want to change the hardware
I had a Wii throughout the 7th gen so I missed out on a lot of the X360's lineup and never got to interact with things like the Xbox Live Arcade when they were in their prime. However I recently got a fully modded X360 with the RGH set up and Aurora custom firmware installed, so exploring the back catalogue will be as easy as dragging and dropping files.
What must-plays are there from the X360's catalogue that I can't get anywhere else, or that would just feel better on the console?

You wanna know what really grinds my gears? When the dialogue ends in a game but you have no indication that it ended. You just end up standing there like a retard until you press a button and realize you can move around. Oh yeah and also, I hope whoever invented those segments where you walk behind a guy while he talks chokes on a peanut. You're never the same speed he is and you have to stop every 2 seconds.
Use this thread to complain about stupid shit you see in games; no matter what it is.
No thread on the catalog so I'm making one. Mainly for the classic grid-based party dungeon crawler but other games are welcome too (not like it's a genre with many proper titles and it already peaked on PS2).
Trying to keep this thread to third party games, censorship that is not the result of localizations or "regional law", and censorship that only applied to the versions released on the Switch (2) (That includes games that experience different levels or instances of censorship compared to other versions). If you want the extensive list of "all" instances of Switch censorship (Regardless of the circumstance), here you go:

Remember that back in 2019, Furukawa declared this: https://archive.ph/RkxJm
>Q11: Regarding restrictions on expression. Some other platforms have their own restrictions other than third-party organizations such as CERO. How about Nintendo?
<A11: Nintendo entrusts a third-party organization with the task of providing objective ratings for its own products and third-party software prior to its release. If the platform operator arbitrarily chooses to do so, it would seriously impede the diversity and fairness of game software. The parental control function also allows for restrictions to be put in place.
I'd argue that Nintendo has since abandoned this policy.
How was the last game you played? What did you like or hate about it? Why?
Previous thread >>88859
"You know exactly what went on behind those closed doors" edition.
Discuss the games, your favorite or hated rom hacks, leaks, etc.
I mainly wanted to start this bread back up to catalogue some of my favorite shit from the Freak Leaks. Unfortunately most of it got nuked at this point because, and I shit you not:
>only dripfeeding it to his discord
>uploading everything to jewgle drive as opposed to just torrenting them (which people later did, better late than never i guess)
>the leaker taking his sweet time uploading everything because he had to comb through it and make sure nothing was related to the newest Pokemon games because of "spoilers"
<and yet, he somehow still managed to release ALL of game freak's employee info, business cards, even plans to build a park in celebration of the 30th anniversary
But I digress, we ended up getting a lot of fun shit from it. From some higher-res art and even Holon from the TCH, Game Freak answering WPWYF, Arceus being on some Jungian shit, a scrapped Pokemon musou-ish game that i entirely forgot to save footage of but surely it's archived, the Ruby/Sapphire remake maps being taken from fucking mienkraft, and tons of scrapped proto builds and even various concept arts.
In terms of shit not Freak Leak related, two fan projects I can heavily recommend are Pokemon Odyssey (it's Pokemon with a shitload of Etrian Odyssey references) and the upcoming Cobblemon mod for mienkraft, which even lets you make your own fakemon. Like you can just take existing mobs from old mods, toss their models into blockbench, punch some numbers and make it a fakemon.
Post games that have appeal, places within games, good UI designs, animations, shaders, characters, art styles, soul, etc.
Let's have a Silent Hill thread. I've finished the first three Team Silent games now.
Did they really have to kill Harry? Bastards... It's not fair.
Been a while since we had one and I've been thinking about it again so it's time to talk about some Monster Hunter.
What are ya...
PLAYIN?
HUNTAIN?
MAINING?
CARTIN TO?
Or do you hate MonHunt and want to bitch? Well friend, come on over. We have room in this thread for many opinions, even wrong ones. I myself haven't played in a while. Rise didn't catch on with me the same as the other ones did. I hate the dogs, to much going on with all the palicios and everything during a hunt. Maybe I should give it another go.
Also maybe we could get a hunting group together again. We did it a bit for portable 3rd and it was pretty fun.

I don't know how to make a game, but I'm at the point where I've gotten far enough in learning how to program that I can start to learn how to make my dream game. This thread is my public log. I'm going to make exactly one post at the end of every day summarizing my progress and replying to other posts. If for whatever reason I do not make a post, I will try to follow up on a subsequent day.
>Background
I would describe myself as a beginner programmer with some competency in C and in the process of learning Python and C#. I also feel that I have a decent natural artistic and mathematical sensibility. Beyond that, there isn't much else, and rest assured the start will be slow-going. I will be sharing the names of books, videos, online course, and other resources I use and try to upload what I can if there are interested people.
>Goal
My goal is to produce a decent, non-2D indie game within the next five years. At the moment, I have not typed a single line of code for any game project.
>Ending
This thread will end for likely one of three reasons; I have missed my deadline, I am unable to continue for whatever reason, or I am successful. In the last case, the more I get done the less I will share about the project aside from some demos.
See you tomorrow.
>The two-hour Summer Game Fest live showcase will take place on 6th June, 2025, beginning at 2pm PDT/5pm EDT/10pm BST. It'll be hosted at YouTube Theater in Los Angeles, with ticket sales opening up in the Spring.
>Summer Game Fest: Play Days — the event for press to get hands-on time with upcoming games — will take place over the following three days, 7th to 9th June 2025. According to the press release, "more than 40 of the gaming industry’s top publishers" will be taking part.
>Additionally, Day of the Devs: SGF Edition is also back, and will be streamed live immediately following the main showcase on 6th June. Day of the Devs is a non-profit organisation that aims to shine a light on smaller scale titles heading to various platforms.
who's streaming & who's watching the shit games fest and most importantly why
Old thread is at the post limit and I feel like this is something the major boards should be made aware of. Esther M. Aronowitz is back. Apparently he's been attacking cakechan by posting gifs and videos on dead boards that have innocuous thumbnails which then turn into CP after a few frames. He gives the files couple hours to stew and then reports them to domain registrar or whatever else upstream he can find. You may want to prepare countermeasures in case he turns his attention here.
The main reason I bring this up is because I decided to do a quick look into the Darksiders series and see the people behind it because I was curious if I really "missed" anything having only playing the first and possible second game. And I found it interesting that Darksiders 3 effectively had nothing to do with the crew of the first two games. The "brains" of the series Joe Mad left to form Airship Syndicate and work on Battle Chasers and (More recently) Wayfinder, Timothy Bell was picked up by iD and has been working on the nuDoom games (That explains a lot), and several of the other studio leads bounced off to Sega, Microsoft, or Crytek. And while David Adams and a few other people have stuck around and are still working on the series, I don't remember anyone really being that impressed with the third game.
And this is what brings forward my question, because Darksiders isn't the only series to suffer from this. DMC is going to be handed off to a new team with the depature of Itsuno (After Kamiya and Mikami already left), Halo and Sonic have passed through the hands of several entirely different teams, all of the leading Final Fantasy crew have left ages ago to form Mistwalker or Monolith Soft, Ninja Gaiden is no longer even being developed by Tecmo, Atari is revived by the French after they killed it once already, Call of Duty has none of the original MoH team who have since gone on to work at Epic or EA, Street Fighter has almost nothing to do with it's original creators who have long since left the company to form Arika or shack up with SNK (Before ALSO leaving to form Dimps), and it just continues. I'm not saying any of the new guys are "incapable" of developing a good new game appropriate to whatever series they are working on. The problem I have is just wondering when people are going to let series just finally die out because of none of the people who made the games actually still working there. Start making new games against instead of constantly devoting everything to these legcy series that increasingly have nothing to do with their roots.
Welcome to the fourth and final week of this gamenight month.
The third game to conclude it is...
Game 3: Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3
>Jabroni Brawl: Episode 3 is a free multiplayer Source engine game featuring an enormous variety of game modes, weapons and maps.
>It draws heavy inspiration from various forgotten Half-Life 1 mods, plus anything else we can think of.

>The game keeps resetting the texture quality to ultra
Try creating a text file in the `jbep3/cfg/autoexec.cfg
containing a line with: mat_picmap #quality`
Where #quality must be one the following numbers:
2 for low, 1 for medium, 0 for high and -1 for ultra.
For example, for medium quality you can use mat_picmap 1
>My GPU usage is high
Try limiting the max FPS count with the fps_max command. For example, fps_max 100
You may add this command to your autoexec.cfg file in a new line.
Another victim of troonlation. Will it ever stop?
Do you go for the classic "NIGGERMAN" or do you get creative?

I got a bunch of stuff from Nippon:
>Idolmaster Live for You! Limited Edition
>Famitsu Xbox 360 February 2007 issue which comes with an Idolmaster poster, a 360 Onechanbara skin (It also came with a EDF3 skin, but I decided on the Onechanbara one), and a DOAX2 calendar (you swap the cards as the year progresses).
>Marie Rose mousepad
>The first Project Diva and 2nd for the PSP, which I also got, but my battery hasn't arrived.
>PS4 Taiko no Tatsujin Session Dodon Don! Bundle
I'm also getting an N64, but it hasn't arrived yet. I'll show it when it comes.
Thinking about getting a K-On! skin for my PSP.
what are your best VR experiences? be it games, tech demos or Nature Films.
I've just finished Silent Hill 2 remake in VR and it was freaky, UEVR I salute you.
There was an issue I've had to deal with in my last MP game of OpenTTD (which was a few months ago by now) that I've never been able to solve due to lack of time and being an actual retard. What you're looking at in the pic is a very, very basic sketch of what I have to contend with.
So, I wanted to connect several industries (about eight or more) into a single port. Then I wanted to use that port to create farming and engineering equipment to boost the productivity of those industries to increase the production of both primary and secondary products, which would then double or even triple my income and network stress. The problem is... I don't know how to design a station which
1) would have enough throughput to satisfy up to 40 to 50 trains in the INPUT lane and
2) did so without wasting a dozen km2
Signalling is also an issue. The most sophisticated trick I can do is stacking trains in overflow depots and that's it. All the complicated logic stuff just goes over my head.
If you have any tips on how to build better stations, balance cargo, or signal my railways better, I would appreciate it.
ITT: Games you used to play, but can't anymore because they're either defunct, or changed beyond recognition.
Tell me about them, and reminisce about the good old days
>They really just called it Switch 2
Predictions?
I'm probably too optimistic, but I expect the name and very similar design to bite them in the ass, like with the Wii U.
It will absolutely not sell as well as the switch without another chink-flu and Animal Crossing.
Maybe it will all depend on the games, remember those? What do you think is going to be the "console-seller"? A new 3D bing bing wahoo and walking-sim Zelda?
since /v/ ain't coming back anytime soon why not have a dmc thread?
I want to play 4th gen games on my PS3 but the DS3's d-pad sucks.
What's a good third-party USB controller with a great d-pad?
I wanted to get a defender since it's specifically made for the PS tripple but it's like 50 bucks.
I noticed a while ago that even indie games aren't safe from being bad. I don't mean shovelware tier bad. I mean not living up enough to their standards type of bad.
Hello Neighbor for an example.

>What will the game be like?
A simple, short puzzle/adventure game presented like a VN and inspired by old Flash adventure/"sim" games. We'll be working in Ren'py, and the game will mostly be slice-of-life comedy and light romance with some cheesecake or ecchi.
>You've barely done anything in the last two years!
The GitGud repo needs updating, but despite writefag's periods of absence there has been solid progress made on character designs and illustrations.
- Base Libbie and XUE (the mouse girl in the swimsuit) have all their expressions done.
- Maff's expressions are mostly done.
- Concepts/sketches for Art and Kiki are mostly done and their designs are practically final.

The blue blur himself.
>Sonic X Shadow Generations
Pretty good. I wish we got a stage dedicated to Shadow 05, and more bosses, but for what it is, It's awesome.
After replaying it so much, playing base Generations takes some getting used. Being able to turn in an instant feels way more natural. I still love base Generations, but I love the new control scheme in this and Frontiers.
The budget increase from Frontiers is quite apparent. While I'll always miss the stylization of the Dreamcast era, the game does look quite good. This was also, as far as I know, made by the B-Team, so I'm excited to see what the new, bigger A-team will make, probably in the sequel to Frontiers.
The bosses were great, specially Mephiles and Devil Doom. I love the new format of making Act 1 fully 3D, and Act 2 fully 2D. If they make more boost games, they should stick to that.
I liked the story too. Not as dramatic as I thought it would be, from the Dark Beginnings prologue, but still able to take itself seriously.
All in all, a great step for the franchise.
>Sonic the Hedgehog 3 (2024)
Much, much better than movie 1 and 2. So good.
The closest comparison that leaps to mind is a 90s Dragon Ball Z movie. Not only because of the Super Saiyan climax, but the movie itself is very fast-paced, action-packed and doesn't allow for much room to breathe, for better or for worse. I'll gladly take it over the wedding scenes in 2 though.
Some people find Ben Schwartz's Sonic "cringy", but aside from a couple of jokes, I liked both the voice and character. It feels like it has gotten better as the movies go on.
The CGI is gorgeous to look at, specially in the big screen. The difference between this and the first movie is night and day.
Shadow's story was great. You can tell he feels conflicted on what to do throughout the whole movie. He never feels evil, just, again, conflicted, as he should, consumed with anger by Maria's death, and pushed to vengeance by Gerald.
Speaking of, Jim Carrey was the star of the movie. I didn't expect Robotnik to have such an important role, and such a great arc. I hope they bring him back for 4. Hopefully as an AU version of him from the bad future, as to not ruin his sacrifice in 3.
I really hope 4 is at least better than 2, even if it doesn't reach the same heights as 3. I have hopes they'll let Amy have a crush on Sonic, but that hope may be foolish. We'll see.
>Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds
Not much to say at the moment, since it isn't out, and I didn't play the network test.
Just that it looks leagues better than TSR. It's obvious that we're out of that safe, watered down, meta era of the 2010s, when even a racing spin-off has more interesting gimmicks and stages than most of that decade.
They're also adding other SEGA characters, so I can't wait to race as Kiryu.
Can't wait to check it out.
Also, did you know Chris Chan is traveling to Finland and fucking his girlfriend by selling terrible chinese plushies on his Etsy and making aprox. half a million bucks.
Do you guys like these types of games? I love em personally. Recently I've completed:
>Touhou Luna Nights
Really good, with nice visuals and audio plus unique mechanics that were used to their full extent.
>Record of Lodoss War Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth
Pretty much the same evaluation as Luna Nights, non surprisingly because its by the same studio.
>Gal Guardians Servants of the Dark
Fun combat, solid sprite work, charming story and characters, pretty open ended exploration due to intentional sequence breaking but unfortunately blatantly unfinished, probably gonna be mitigated with post launch patches, still a good game despite the flaws.
Gonna go back and finish up Bloodstained Ritual of the Night's Classic Mode II soon and then after that I'll play Blade Chimera and Nine Sols. Speaking of Bloodstained though, when do you guys expect Ritual of the Night 2 to be officially shown off? I was betting it was gonna be at the Switch 2 Direct considering the fact that supposedly all of the Bloodstained games sold the best on Switch 1 but it wasn't there, maybe at this year's not-E3?
Nothing better than shitposting with friends with 3 idle games open in the other tabs.

The questions (You) have.
The thread they deserve.
A thread for strategy games in real time, like rts's and rtt's. RTS's, in particular, have had a resurgence in the last few years. Ambitious games are being released. A lot of them are remakes, but still, they're interesting. Stuff like Age of empires and age of mythology aren't dead ip's any more.
There are exactly three (san) mechanical engineering survival games.
One is gives you meningitis.
The other is (s)crap.
The other other VR one has no multiplayer.
Mechengsurvbros, when will our time cum?
Welcome to the third week of this gamenight packed month.

That should be fine, just make sure to close any crash dialogs in order to continue.
>With Wine, the game's performance is very slow.
If your card is compatible with Vulkan, try installing DXVK. Running winetricks dxvk in your prefix should do that.
This was one of the few 4chan /v/ threads that didn't suck ass when it gained some traction and I want to see if we can do the same here.
Post games you think will be cool, shill that niche game no one knows about and let anons say mean things about your tastes.
Post vidya merch.
Any you own?
Any you would like to own?
What's the rarest merch you've seen?
I, personally, would like to have one of these Um Jammer Lammy plushes. She is so cute.

Last thread here >>176775 https://web.archive.org/web/20231126140709/https://zzzchan.xyz/v/thread/176775.html hit the bumplock limit a few days ago and is one post away to hit the reply limit. Given how we've had 3 consecutive weekends worth of videogames to some extent it's crucial to create thread here and now to keep the ball rolling.
Now that I've got that out of the way, in hindsight, what the fuck happened to gamenights in Sleepy? Looking back on the archive, to the few catalog pages saved from 2020:
<GAME NIGHT VOTE/PREPARATION THREAD >>1004, ran from September/October 2020 until February/March 2021 (~5 months), saw at least 12 gamenights in that period of time judging by catalog screenshots and discounting gimmick threads and static servers
<Game Night Organization Thread >>176775, has run from November 2022 to November 2022 (1 year), has seen 10 gamenights in that timeframe, 4 of these being in December last year and 3 of them being this month
I know the coronahoax was hot in between 2020-early 2022, but that's no excuse for the gamenight drought we've been suffering this past year. For comparison, just as a reminder for how gifted this site used to be a few years ago, in that Autumn 2020-Winter 2021 timeframe it saw gamenights for:
>JKA
>Co-op campaigns for Doom, Sven and DX
>SRB2K
>Mechwarrior LL
>S4 League
>Empires
>Dystopia
>Joint Ops
>AI War
Just in that small period of time, and that's ignoring the more niche shit like the GBA Mednafen autism, the netplay Pokemon Stadium 2 fuckaround, that Vintage Story server, the Soku tournament, the Wurm saga or those gimmicky Doom WADs that were run from time to time.
Seriously, what the fuck has happened? Did all the hostfags vanish into thin air? Did they all quit the Internet for the remainder of their lives? Did they get a life? Do the only faggots remaining here think dedicated servers are black voodoo magic and their moms will die in their sleep if they learn to fucking host? Are >we going to get our shit together and put together a bunch of fun games on the weekends for old time's sake, or are gamenights as a concept as good as dead?
Post about games that make dick hard and/or your heart soft.
Complain about never ever eroges, talk shit about nip games for being technically inferior if your game is slow as shit at least don't let it crash from speedhacks fuck, talk shit about western games for being thematically inferior, recommend some decent eroges, and so on.

For example, let's take that statement in reference to what $20 was back in 1992. According to inflation data relating to the CPI, $20 in 1992 is worth $45 in 2024. But that's not the only metric because we have other standards of value. For example, there's commodities. The price of gold in 1992 was $750 an ounce, and is currently worth $2,700 in 2024. Applying that to the game's "standard", that $20 should now be worth $72. But we also have silver in addition to gold, which cost $4 in 1992 (So five ounces worth equals $20) and has now grown to $30 (So that $20 is now worth $150). Meaning that you should "never" pay anything above of $150 for a single game.
But this could also be in relation to everything that came with the game as Monkey Island also came with a manual and a little "extra" toy. By today's standards, such content is reserved for "special edition" versions of games, meaning that everything that I just mentioned up above ONLY applies if you're buying the most complete package of a video game. And that a game lacking such content is worth a fraction of that price. I'd argue that you should reduce the price by a third if it's just the game and box (So $100), and probably reduce it all the way down to 25-33% the original price if it's just the game (So $35-$50).
But Monkey Island also launched for a price of $60 when it originally release. Meaning even LucasArts admitted that their game prices were "too damn high" and was worth only a third as much as they sold it for. Which means that $150 is now $50 again.
Or is it just an overall rule that $20 should be the stopping point altogether and no questions asked? Or am I greatly overthinking this joke?

4chan isn't coming back for at the very least 2 weeks, this is from the admins themselves so you'll be here a while.
Your daily reminders:
>Mark Mann owner of 8chan.moe/v/ is a jewish narcissist scumbag who has lied to everyone just to feed his ego.
>Acidman (Cole Lamberson) admin of 8chan.moe, is a 53 year old fed collaborator who has IRL FBI friends and got anons arrested on multiple occasions and his site is a monitored honeypot just like 4chan was.
Both of these "people" are dark triad scumbags with massive inflated egos and they feed off of gullible idiots who foolishly worship them like they're actually worth more than dried shit. They will try to charm you with pretty words and champion themselves as heroes of free speech but they're just telling you what you want to hear because they're psychopathic manipulators through and through. Don't be a goy. You have been warned.
It's been a while since I've seen people talk about the original shooter genre, so let's have a thread dedicate to that. What's some of your favorites from this line of games? For me, my favorite was always Galaga Arrangement because of the enemy patterns and the music.
I don't know how to start this so uhhh

Hoping the mods will spot me this one because we’re competing with the honeypotted 8chans for the attention of the wider chanbase here, but hi. I’m making this thread because there’s no pin here for newfags after the Grand Unified Soy Extinction that just took down the greatest festering axe wound of an image board on the internet. Zzzchan is obviously better than 8chan’s twin hollowed-out corpses that are being paraded around as an alternative like Insane Clown Posse’s Jeckel Brothers, reflecting a positive and negative conclusion both solely meant to irritate you, so we need to know how many anons chose here over there, and the sooner, the better. Please say hi and talk about video games so I don’t get banned.
What could be the possible reason for the break up with Sony this time again? Is it that rumored tv show a long time ago? Did Miyazaki want to buy the ip from Sony as they did with Elden Ring? I don’t think it’s related to refusing to make a sequel, otherwise they would’ve atleast released a pc port.
Fromsoftware making a Switch exclusive is one thing, but calling it “Duskblood” is like a fuck you Sony.

Additional notes
Special thanks to the two Anons who helped setting this up.
Fire Emblem three houses, the best game in the series and what basically revived it, was outsourced to Koei Tecmo, IntSys didn't touch it, and it's why Engage is hot shit.
Here, take a look. These are the credits of the last few major games going back all the way back to Tellius. A couple of things that stuck to me the most was the following... this name
>Synthese Co., Ltd
With a little bit of digging I found that this corporation is an outsourced corporation that's in charge of writing scenarios for games. Notice how all 3 people from this company who worked on Fates returned for Engage plus one more guy.
It's listed as Scenario Writers for both Engage and Fates, both games whose scenario is lead by Nami Komuro (the one everyone claims ruins the games). in fact take a look at Fate's credits
>Main Scenario, Revelation's path: Yukinori Kitajima
Apparently THIS motherfucker is primarily the one who wrote Revelations supporting my theory that at some point the game was split into parts and added Rev way later in development. What are the games under Yukinori and the Synthese's team as script writers?
>Senran Kagura
>Senran Kagura Burst
>Senran Kagura Shinovi Versus
>Senran Kagura 2 Deep Crimson
>Senran Kagura Estival Versus
>Senran Kagura Peach Beach Splash
>Kandagawa Jet Girls
Jesus christ, this explains Kagerou of fuck even her name in Fates
Fates and Engage were written by the people
who made Senran Kagura.
And what is Synthse Co Ltd, you ask?
basically idea guys.
You've got a ludicrous sum of money and you lurk /v/. Therefore, you decide to buy a proper game studio to create a game tailored to (You)r tastes. Where would anon put his money on? Have you got any ideas you want to see fully-fledged into a game? Potential sequels, gameplay suggestions or a new riff on a tried game formula; if you've got the autism start typing.
Lately I've been picturing what a proper sequel to Toy Fighter would look like. I really enjoy the idea of a 1-on-1 Virtua Fighter clone where every character is the oddball one and design meshes as poorly as a shitty figure collection. Problem is, character design on the original game is pretty bad. I can only imagine what a game with a similar premise would look like if they hired competent artists to design the roster.
The hobby and figure market, including toys for children as opposed to toys for manchildren, is heterogeneous enough to land on plenty of different niches; sort of like how previous Tekken leads decided on unique and novel character design before Harada took over creatively starting in Tekken 4. It's a shame that fighting games did indeed go down the path of no-fun-allowed, tryhard character design faggotry instead of plain fun.
I'll start with a few ones:
>Nero
Because Dante was apparently too manly, so that faggot Izuno had to make his own twink version of it.
Probably went like this:
Izuno: "Dante? Nah, he's way too masculine, let's make the same character, but lame and gay! And i want him to become the new protagonist of the series!"
I think that Izuno guy was alright when put in charge of game mechanics, but he was complete shit at character design.
>Viola
Because Bayonetta needed to be replaced after only 2 games that came out so far apart, and after the fans waited so long for a third installment, they surely must have been tired of her, right?
>And they came out with that shit.
Here's your new protagonist, bro!
Probably killed the series for good.
>Yakumo
Ninja Gaiden 4 isn't even out yet, but i already hate this character.
Yet another case of: "Main character is too masculine, let's replace him with a twink faggot" by retarded Jap devs who think you get old as soon as you get out of high school.
And the first info about this character already killed any excitement i had about about Ninja Gaiden 4.
>‘Ninja Gaiden 4’ Director Confirms Sequel Will Focus On New Hero Yakumo"
>the series’ upcoming fourth entry will be shifting its narrative focus to a new protagonist
https://archive.is/Mcv4n
Can be indie, triple-A or whatever.
These four are the only ones I can think of. Maybe that new Sanic racing game, but there's only been a teaser.

I just finished Sonic X Shadow Generations. Twice in fact.
It has the best gameplay and level design of all the boost games. Base Generations is more dynamic sure, but it's also harder to see what is going on at times, so I prefer this approach. I like the controls more too.
The writing is the best it's been since Unleashed. I'm so glad we're out of that meta era and the stories can take themselves seriously again.
If this is what Team B can do, I can't wait to see what Team A can pull off. I'm looking forward to see what they do with Frontiers 2 now that they have a Yakuza budget.
Overall, bery gud. I still need to go back and S Rank the last stages and collect everything, and so on, but right now I want to play the Sonic Generations "remastered' part and see what they changed dialogue-wise. Good and bad.
Now that SF6 has been out for a while, people are beginning to look forward to Tekken 8 and other assorted titles to carry the fighting game torch into 2024. I'm not sure how much there will be to say about those games when they come, but in the meantime there are a couple topics which I figured bore discussing.
>Them's Fightin' Herds will end active development after 2 additional characters. Story mode is cancelled.
I went trawling through the Steam and developer forums for this announcement to see what the community reaction was, but there wasn't much helpful. I was able to find some statements from the developers from as recently as the start of November where they promised story mode content would come for free at a later date.
>Rivals of Aether 2 asks for $200,000 to help cover costs going into 2024 . . . after investing more than $2 million throughout development
<"We want to make the best tournament-level platform fighter."
<they currently have $570,000 with 17 days to go in the crowdfunding campaign
Obviously game development is hard, expensive, and risky, so asking for more money throughout development can sometimes be necessary. But I can't help but feel as though hyperfocus on the competitive scene is what always ends up killing games that aren't named Mortal Kombat.
Radio silence for 3 years and now suddenly it's out.
Is it shit? It has Denuvo so it'll be a while before I get to play it.
Demake. There was so much that could've been done to make Persona 3 the best in the series but Atlus was cheap about it.
>Dark hour nights transformed into Palaces
>Strega gang get more content and appear earlier
>more SEES events like that one time beach trip
>Social links for Akihiko and Junpei and Ken
Hi you faggots what do think of this 2B? Isnt she … uhhh … cute? Im planning to have her at the office so the other nerds will drool over how cultured I really am. (◕‿◕)╭∩╮
