#

i liked the graphics but i was shit at the gameplay

#

i can see why people wouldn't like it cuz people have different tastes

winter yew
#

Oh definitely, the game and concept of the game really did come across as interesting to me. Actually playing, meh.

like if you don't like 3rd person shooters

willow crypt
#

It could be a good series or a movie

winter yew

Yes, 100% agreed with that.

#

there are some reeealllyy old games like Doom and Half Life 1 ported to VR, is it worth playing this ugly stuff or does it look better on VR?

#

although looking at games like population one or pavlov, they look ugly as fuk on youtube, but im starting to believe everything looks better in VR

cinder vessel
#

...it's worth playing them in general imo, just due to their impact

#

personally i don't feel like VR adds much to either since they just weren't made with it in mind

#

Pretty sure I played a little of Doom in VR and while the more free camera movement was nice, if memory serves, it wasn't like it was graphically any better

quakequest, quake2quest, lol I gonna have to try them,

oh cool

i love this ship

primal loom
gaunt dust

used to hate it only because of its red interior color

snow zenith
#

Ye, I mained the Krait when I wasn't using the Corvette for... literally anything else.

gaunt dust
#

it pissed me off because it doesn't exactly match paint jobs that aren't red

#

but i've learnt to live with it

#

still wish it was just black or dark grey though because that can go with anything without looking odd

#

Also that paint job is supposed to be white but odyssey apparently fucked up the colors

From the team that brought you the legendary Gothic and Risen series, comes a glimpse into the story of the upcoming open world RPG: ELEX II.

Unite the free people of Magalan against a looming threat. The Skyanides are coming and want to change the face of the planet forever. But some people are not so easily convinced…

ELEX II is coming soon...

also elex 2 is sort of surprising

#

og outcast was very interesting

#

never thought to had seen a sequel

cinder vessel
#

hopefully it's more colorful than the thumbnail suggests (on mobile atm so haven't watched yet)

winter yew
#

eh?

#

your mobile phone display must be making it quite muted

Man

#

Outcast was so fun

#

Definitely will have to check out the sequel, I knew they had it in the works, Id just forgot

winter yew
#

reading up on it the sequel originally got cancelled

cinder vessel
winter yew
#

typical of youtube to have done

#

it looks good otherwise

cinder vessel
#

I compare the original Outcast from 1999 with the remake Outcast: Second Contact from 2017. The remake has much better graphics (no more blocky voxel graphics which were nice back then), but the sound is worse, at least in my opinion. The music is still epic. But the original cutscenes are much better.
The atmosphere of Outcast at that time was...

▶ Play video
#

I hadn't looked into how much the remake was...Well, a remake.

winter yew
#

miss the world being done in voxels

cinder vessel
#

Also ngl, the CGI cutscenes > the cheapo 2D cutscenes with...Minimal animation.

#

I get that they likely went with the 2D cutscenes for budget reasons but they just look worse imo.

winter yew
#

yea those cut-scenes feel cheap

cinder vessel
#

I'd have just had them do the stuff in-engine instead, probably woulda looked better, but also mighta cost more

winter yew
#

all budget seem to went to the ingame render and overworld

cinder vessel
#

gotta give'em kudos, they do appear to have tried to stay faithful to the general environment designs

#

character designs as well, give or take some complexion change

austere lance
winter yew
#

yea its not as jank with the animation and the worlds look way better now that we can replicate what voxels was able to do in 1999 with today's high poly counts

cinder vessel
#

have you played MW5 yet @austere lance?

austere lance
#

A bit, I did the first mission

#

My mech kinda got half destroyed cuz I kept stepping on things, and I couldn't figure out how to fix it for my next mission

cinder vessel
#

😅

#

I started into Battletech and just got inundated with The Lore

#

That whole franchise/series is so riddled with the stuff

silver sparrow

I wish state of decay 3 was coming on console

Or 2

cinder vessel

2 is on consoles tho, isn't it...?

cinder vessel
#

🤔 how many chapters is deltarune going to be anyway?

winter yew
#

I believe five
Sounds like he's planning on releasing the game as a complete version later, instead of releasing individual chapters.

cinder vessel
#

mm, i'll wait and check it out at that point then i think

winter yew
#

You'll be waiting awhile, he sounds a bit tired tbh

cinder vessel
#

that's cool, i've never played undertale nor chapter one of deltarune anyway, so i'll forget about both and probably find them in a better place than at the height of their fervor

winter yew
#

Undertale has been out for a long time, I didn't play it until a couple years after its release. It's a fantastic game, I wish I had played it sooner

#

Toby fox creates beautiful tunes 😩

#

Freaking adore his music

cinder vessel

I think I saw where they collaborated with the person that did music on Celeste for ch. 2

i'm convinced either Prey (2017) is dark magic or it doesn't actually register graphics settings changes completely until a full game restart, because somehow it runs pretty well on my PC but isn't using my GPU much

Which game is this?

Stonefly

I've not heard of it. I'll take a peek at it.

#

Ooooh Creature In The Well devs.

willow crypt
#

hehe yeah Leon mentioned they did that as well, which i still need to look up

winter yew
#

I've wishlisted, I was sold on the first sentence explaining the game.
Stonefly is an action-adventure RPG in which you pilot a tiny robot mech.
Hell yeah I want to pilot a tiny robot mech.

#

I really like that art style too. 👌

willow crypt

i think you will enjoy

thorn dawn

their focus is put squarely onto pachinko

Gotta love a game dev that has shifted to casinos

charred badge
winter yew
#

pachinkos are not casinos no mater how you look at it

willow crypt
#

gross casino games

#

or gambling crap in general

winter yew
#

closest thing i can compare pachinko machines to are those mobile games with insane predatory tactics to get you to buy into gatchas for png files

gaunt dust
winter yew
#

you dont win any cash prizes, you instead pay into the chance of progressing through

charred badge
#

You put money in, and after showing some pointless action it tells you whether you won

winter yew

thats not how they see it over there

charred badge
#

I'm sure there's a technical legal distinction to get around laws

winter yew
#

applying western values onto asian culture does not work

charred badge
#

There may be a different culture around it, but it's still a specific type of game

winter yew
#

slot machines do exist there but its not the money profiting machine that they are here in the west

charred badge
#

Instead, pachinko is?

#

Konami seems to do just fine off it

winter yew
#

their markets work vastly different

charred badge
#

How so?

winter yew

for one thing pachinko parlors are not run by casinos but instead ran by who the business leases the machines off of

the business owners of said parlors can be connected to that yes

@winter yew the 45 min Streets of Rage mix was obscene

both streets of rage and revenge of shinobi was composed on synthesizers that are close to the hardware found on the sega genesis

I still want a G-police and hardwar remaster

so he was able to compose music that would play back near 1:1 to how he visioned it

G Police would be great

@winter yew you heard any of the Wangan Midnight soundtracks?

winter yew

i have

#

good shit

ive heard most of his work so where the only things that id be stumbling to recall would be his more obscure contributions

charred badge

Apparently the hardwar ai was absurdly good for its time

Not so much the combat, but the background sim

cinder vessel
#

I think I remember seeing copies of G-Police all over the place...Was it pretty good?

It's a future helicopter chase/combat game

I remember it as frustrating, but I had a terrible stick

cinder vessel
#

ah well frankly, could use more silly fun flying combat games

charred badge
#

Level based, had some sort of story.
I'm very foggy on that aspect

cinder vessel
#

is like me with Blaster Master: Blasting Again

#

or Colony Wars

winter yew
#

The game made use of cutting edge technology such as force-feedback joysticks and controllers, 3D sound and Direct3D Hardware Acceleration and was largely well received. Critics noted that the game's graphics were some of the most technically impressive of the time. Overall, however, critics had mixed response for the graphics, as the demanding graphics resulted in poor draw distance; in particular, the PlayStation version struggled in this aspect. In general, the gameplay was favourably reviewed, with critics praising the solid, enjoyable missions, though there were complaints regarding a poor control system and unfairly high levels of difficultly.

that Rugrats game I played through a bit ago had the weirdest camera controls

yea no control over that

Yeah but required

And MH used a similar scheme

also ape escape used l3 and r3

On PS2

winter yew

so you had to absolutely use the dual shock on it

dual analog only had them for thumbstick calibration

Haha

not even joking tbh, Ape Escape is where I got a feel for dual-analog sticks

Gran Turismo was really good too

cinder vessel

I tried other games where it was optional and it just didn't work to me at all

that was to abort the mission and to avoid getting a game over

wtf

#

okay now i know what not to do with my og xbox

shadow tartan
#

There were some really cool Virtual On Mars sticks for Dreamcast too

winter yew
#

jpn only

#

and yea like wtf

charred badge
#

It was a pretty interesting control scheme, and made logical sense

winter yew
#

dreamcast gamepad was clearly not made for that game

charred badge
#

Flipping the toggles to start the machine was pretty satisfying

#

And having a gear shift

#

Popping wheels out at top gear, and then immediately toppling from turning too hard, lol

cinder vessel

i wish there was a new aesthetic take on future cyberspace stuff like with some of the ol' Phantasy Star/Virtua On stuff

a relic of the past to remain there

shadow tartan

This thing

cinder vessel
#

pewpew

winter yew
#

yea jpn only

shadow tartan
#

I don't have it anymore sadly

#

My Dreamcast is the Japanese Ver 1

winter yew
#

thing you need to understand with both the saturn and dreamcast is that games would have a list of peripheral that it would be compatible with at launch

shadow tartan
#

With the old Japanese man on the back of the box 🤣

winter yew
#

it needed to be read at boot

#

so if you had the wrong controller when the game fires up unintended results will occur

charred badge
#

I mean, there are official PS4 and xbone flight sticks

shadow tartan
#

They are shit

#

Jk

charred badge
#

Heh

shadow tartan
#

I had the PS sticks too

charred badge
#

I'm sure they're fine entry level things

winter yew
shadow tartan
#

I just kept getting peripherals

charred badge
#

I had the giant orange gun for saturn

winter yew
#

i never needed to get a jpn dreamcast

charred badge
#

Virtua cop, man

#

I had that game memorized

winter yew
#

no point when i would use region swaps on the fly

shadow tartan
#

And I needed to play games at launch in a language I didn't understand

shadow tartan
#

And Confidential Mission

winter yew
#

i would if i wanted to like idk play the prototype of the cancelled game called geist force

shadow tartan
#

We had a running joke about that and Shenmue 3

#

Then Shenmue 3 became a thing

#

We had a folder on a server called Shenmue 3 just to see how many people went snooping

winter yew
#

oh boy

charred badge
#

Ugh, shenmue 3.
That turned into a pretentious mess

Love this channel

shadow tartan
winter yew
#

even had that been real there are many factors as to why thats not legit

#

you cant run gd-r on a retail unit for one

#

it has to be a dev kit

#

even a dev kit wouldnt necessarily would had read the data off of it

shadow tartan
#

I was gonna take a pic of the Dev kits I have here but after being told I would be fired for things I don't want to risk it

#

Still have an RVT-H with builds on it...

winter yew
#

most games you find for dreamcast are stored on an internal scsi hdd inside the dev unit itself, not a gd-r

shadow tartan
#

Yeah unless you're testing streaming from the disc on final versions

#

Thank fuck nobody has to do that anymore

winter yew
#

virtual disc drives exist for a reason

shadow tartan
#

Have to test physical

winter yew
#

not everyone had that

shadow tartan
#

It was a requirement for SEGA

#

Even on PSP

winter yew
#

yea before sending out to q/a definitely there was no way around it

#

but like i said not everyone had to do that

shadow tartan
#

QA has all the mastering tools

winter yew
#

usually it was on the publisher that had to do that

shadow tartan
#

Always publisher, it's certification stuff mostly

#

So you get a list of critical bugs if things don't work

winter yew
#

as with the case with like every company that made games for that thing

shadow tartan
#

PSP?

winter yew
#

oh im sorry thought we were talking about the dreamcast still

shadow tartan
#

Dreamcast was hell

winter yew
#

sony had it streamlined enough to had made it less of a hassle

#

ive once seen what you needed to get from sega to make anything for the platform

#

yea fuck that id go bankrupt over night had i did any of that

shadow tartan
#

Well it's company money

#

Sometimes you can get kits on loan for a lower price

#

Not often though

winter yew
#

it wasnt like a few things you needed to buy

shadow tartan
#

Yeah I know

winter yew
#

it was every single thing that you needed to start making games was an individual module

shadow tartan
#

And when they come back missing things

#

#

"Asset tags bitch"

winter yew
#

cryptic af

#

i am aware of how much of a pita they were to 3rd parties

shadow tartan
#

Nah they would send kits back missing controllers or power units

winter yew
#

oh god

shadow tartan
#

Devs would

#

And then you have to email someone who takes a week or three to get back to you about where the stuff is

winter yew
#

pain

shadow tartan
# winter yew pain

Pain is when you have to deal with someone who says it's an issue with a game, when the power button is held down a game hard locks

shadow tartan
#

Or

#

An artist

#

winter yew
#

where the hell are they hiring these asshats?

shadow tartan

He's an amazing artist

But they shouldn't walk up to a producer with such vague info

winter yew
#

wow

shadow tartan
#

Allow me to stop everything from happening

winter yew
#

un-fucking-believable

shadow tartan
#

This guy found a bug on a street

#

There was over 200000 bugs by this point

winter yew
shadow tartan
#

Oh wow

cinder vessel
shadow tartan
winter yew
#

thats cool

austere lance
#

That camera makes me 🤢

winter yew
#

yea the looking down part is disorienting

#

everything else looks great

cinder vessel
#

does look like they have the FOV a bit high too, which may not be helping

austere lance
#

I can't go above like, 90 FOV in FPS's

winter yew
#

for me it depends on the game

#

most of them id have set at 110

#

some games will break at 120 so id like use a custom fov instead

#

if its dependent on your aspect ratio horizontally id go for something lower to emulate a higher fov on a smaller width

#

now if its arbitrary like nms i will just disregard whats normal and max it out cus at this point 110 will just be just below 90 and tbh its the closest im gonna get

#

also id use a lower fov had i been playing on a game console and a larger display (my pc is smaller so im up close)

austere lance
#

I play on a TV, so anything higher than 90 looks weird

severe copper

Planet of the apes worth watching

austere lance

Which one

severe copper

The orginal

austere lance

From the 60s?

willow crypt

i like the original one and the newest ones

severe copper
#

Yes

willow crypt
#

it is definitely worth watching

severe copper
#

9 thanks

#

Is it the one with police monkeys

willow crypt
#

i don’t think so

#

that may have been the one with Mark Walberg

austere lance
#

Yee

severe copper
#

I remember seeing the end

#

When I was younger

#

And there was police monkeys

#

Idk which movie tho

willow crypt
#

lol

#

2001

severe copper
#

Should I watch that one?

willow crypt
#

no

severe copper
#

Why

willow crypt
#

i mean if you have nostalgia from childhood go ahead

#

but it’s not a great movie

severe copper
#

Like what was bad about it

#

I’m just curious

#

Was there just a bunch of plot holes

willow crypt
#

from what i remember, it was just kinda cheesy

#

and Mark’s acting was pretty cheesy

severe copper
#

Oh damn

#

Wb the original

willow crypt
#

it’s a classic and a must watch

severe copper
#

Like Jurassic park

#

And Star Wars

willow crypt
#

yes

severe copper
#

Ok

#

I’m watching it rn

#

I need more good movies

#

I also watched

#

The hobbit and lotr

#

Star Wars

#

Jurassic park

#

Is Godzilla any good

willow crypt
#

eh it depends on which

Skip 1998 at all costs

severe copper
#

Is the planet of the apes book good?

proper drift
#

So, what's broken in Space Engineers for me is pistons, rotors and hinges. There is a setting called Share Inertia Tensor that helps prevent grids from shaking themselves apart. I'm not able to enable that setting, so building certain types of grids (ships, rovers, mining platforms, etc.) is impossible for me.

@willow crypt is beneath the planet of the apes good

willow crypt
#

@cinder vessel watched some Blaster Master gameplay, looks fun! I could see a modern day version of this game being a blast

#

in a way, Stonefly is similar

#

also looked into Creature in the Well and while i really like the concept, it looks like a rage quit game and i don’t think i’m up for that. This game can be quite difficult but it feels like its focus is primarily on exploration and sort of a meditative experience, whereas CITW seems more like a difficult dungeon crawler

might i say Google translate has improved drastically

idle saffron

Thanks

willow crypt
#

that worked pretty wel

idle saffron
#

Been an uphill battle

willow crypt
#

l

winter yew
#

still far from perfect

bold crag
#

the Google translate i know would have garbled that sentence beyond recognition

winter yew
#

yea for german maybe its gotten better

willow crypt
#

it’ll be neat when we can have little devices that translate everything for us immediately so we don’t have to learn languages

bold crag
#

those exist already they just aren't that good

willow crypt
#

yeah i assume they’ll need more time

winter yew
#

want something cringe just look up the many translation patches done with google

bold crag
#

it surprises me that Google orders the words correctly

#

so that it's a good sentence structure

#

but yeah i agree german might be a rather well tested example

#

also my phone has google translate integrated in my keyboard which is rather helpful as a non native English speaker

winter yew
#

i do more translations with russian and japanese so those are where id say has not improved in the slightest or at least gotten worse

bold crag
#

do you translate from Russian to Japanese?

winter yew
#

nah either of those to english

#

i have 2 good reasons for both

bold crag
#

anime and online gaming?

winter yew
#

for japanese yes

#

however for russian its a different reason

#

i used to be heavily dominant in the doom modding scene and when i got to run several discord servers the troublemakers there would almost always be of russian descendant

#

i bet you can see where this is going

bold crag
#

russian are a rather unruly bunch

#

unruly is being generous

winter yew
#

its in their nature to be trolls

bold crag
#

"arschgeigen" would be more fitting

winter yew
#

their understanding is if someone doesnt take too well to the trolling, keep on pushing it cus its fun to them

bold crag
#

russians don't give a damn

winter yew
#

thats something that any web based ai translations wont tell you

bold crag
#

yeah i am rather good friends with a Russian

#

trust me russian and german are fantastic curse combinations

#

and also russian are rude as their default setting and they always unite with other russians

#

The Saints Row reboot is respectfully better than any of the previous games in the franchise.

#

Personally, I think these games were fun the first time they came out, but I'm not going to stand in the way of history. I still like the games and I will probably enjoy the reboot. It's just the name "Saints Row" that really makes me itch.

#

It doesn't sit right. It feels more like Agents of Mayhem 2 than a SR game based on the trailers.

#

I'm sick of old school gangster games because the 90s and the 2000s are long gone and dead. Nobody born in this generation will understand them.

#

Old school SR fans are the worst because all they do is whine that the new saints row reboot sucks and reminisce about how the old games were better. I saw a YouTube video of the community totally out of control at a recent build event for the game and had to turn it off because I was about to lose it.

#

"This is so much better, way more quality than the originals, why are you showing it to us like this?" "Shut up! We don't need you to tell us about it!" "I didn't say anything, this is all your fault."

#

Okay I'm done, and yeah, this is the game. But a fucking video from the people who are actually going to be playing it?

#

Look, I love Saints Row as much as the next guy, but the attitude that we'd all be better off if it was back in 2000 is sickening. Here's hoping they do a much better job with the second one. [Polygon]

#

UPDATE: The Saints Row Reboot tweet has been deleted, replaced with "It was a mistake! Never again!"

#

UPDATE 2: Just got word from THQ that they were not actually tweeting from the site. THQ PR Jason Allender is assuring everyone that the tweet was never sent from Saints Row website, but

#

Saints Row reboot is better and Saints Row 2 fans are just mad because they can't do anything. These guys were screwed over so badly by the original game.

#

If you think like that you may be correct but I am afraid I need to focus on what they have delivered. The Saints Row 2 Remake is nearly complete and from the demo shown at PAX Prime this is a huge step forward from the original game.
