Is Resident Evil 7 the best FPS ever made? I think it's definitely the best of that whole "slow" genre of FPS.
It shits all over the cawadooties with the sheer amount of its goofy side-content, and the boss fights (even the two fatties at the end of the salt mine) feel like they took everything that was so great about Half-Life enemy encounters.

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

If you really want to, canuck outlet VGP is currently advertising having gotten a reprint in. Would mean LRG taking a cut on though, since it's one of those games IFI just couldn't be bothered to print their own switch physical of (or that perhaps mainstream retailers refused/were deemed likely to refuse to carry).

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.

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

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

Not sure what your problem is but back in those days games had limited color palettes and would have to choose which range of colors they can display at a time. Also, Bureau of Astral Troubleshooters was not made by Ubisoft. It was made by Computer's Dream. Ubisoft just published it. And this game was released in 1989. The zeitgeist was very different back then. Please don't become one of those single-minded idiots who keep mentally circling back to their pet issues even when the context doesn't call for it.

I don't have any advice for playing this game, since I never did. I'm planning to use the Amstrad version, since it was my first computer and they made a release for it. Nobody else here will care about this, but it means a lot to me.

>>279955
It's obviously a palette issue, but back then it wouldn't have been a problem because all games were built around these limitations. Pic is the Amstrad version, in very colorful mode 0. But since I only had the monochrome green monitor, I'd only have seen shades of green, which you can kinda get an idea of what it looks like on the cpc-power page that's linked from here:
https://www.cpcgamereviews.com/b/4/

Also Ubi-soft published some other nice games back then. Look into Zombi and Hurlements, for starters.
