im just surprised that theres is such a huge economy aroudn it that people farmed rewards and valve changed how it works

[outer pollen]

They removed the jester?

[trim rock]

No more clowning around

[outer pollen]

wtf why that was the only award I’d give out

As in a decent amount

[orchid prism]

Curseforge

[verbal nymph]

it's a start, noice

[trim rock]

I don't want a forge that curses me

[bleak pike]

Tbh I don't get the hype tho

[orchid prism]

Me either but it has a fanbase clearly.

I never cared about it back then, and I don't now. It just feels like a other take on MC that I am very done with at this point.

Also not a fan of the Brits behind it, save for that one tune.

[trim rock]

Minecraft but actually made for modding is probably something a lot of people desired

[orchid prism]

Not being made for modding hasn't stopped MC from becoming just that.

[compact oriole]

its another minecraft

i think thats literally just it. minecraft is like top 3 on active players or smth?

its insanely huge either way

[fathom swift]

Its closer to 3d terraria

[hardy merlin]

Combat-focused and tons of boss fights?

[compact oriole]

but terraria is already 2d minecraft

[nimble current]

looks like a weebier minecraft to me p much

[compact oriole]

so thats why its so hyped. it all makes sense now

[nimble current]

tbh it kinda would

[compact oriole]

i was only half kidding ye

[orchid prism]

Ugh... I could never get into Terraria. It's fun and all until the bosses enter the formula. Just don't enjoy that aspect at all 😄

[trim leaf]

I've been done with Minecraft for many years but Hytale feels different enough that I'm enjoying it

[compact oriole]

ive not played minecraft in ages. how does hytale feel different to you?

is movement/fighting better for example?

[hardy merlin]

So... uh... cosmetic sets you get in higher tiers you can also like make yourself like skins in Minecraft?

[trim leaf]

Yes, it's just a lot of QoL things that makes it feel more fresh

[fathom swift]

I haven't played in a while but it's usually modded when I do. Endgame bosses are usually some form of bullet hell

[trim leaf]

Combat in general is more dynamic and less stale than it is in MC

[hardy merlin]

Where "Activate Windows" watermark?

[mellow garden]

Some of us can afford operating systems

[scarlet marlin]

yes and no. I think its great that theres new content but its also a lil bit too late. I dont know if I can get myself back into and log back into my island after like 5 years

[scarlet marlin]

so explain the hype about the game? is it like RPG minecraft or?

[outer pollen]

Mansen showed me how to get rid of it

[verbal nymph]

does the game have magic?

[outer pollen]

It's pretty

[mellow garden]

I’m personally ready to see what I missed out on back in the day.

[mellow garden]

Yeah, I sold my Switch 1 fairly early into the pandemic so missed out on this one.

[outer pollen]

the character customization is cute though

[bleak pike]

Reminds me of tinkers construct

[orchid prism]

Minecraft - But focused on mining and crafting.

[scarlet marlin]

damn animal crossing during covid was PEAK

[scarlet marlin]

I guess the blocky mine-craft vibe is just not for me. but enjoy the game <3

[small comet]

soon pokopia

[outer pollen]

It has a very very long way too go for sure

[small comet]

i wish VS or hytale had tinkers like smelting and casting

[outer pollen]

Are we getting a full physical cart?

[mellow garden]

Yeah, my sister played a lot of ACNH back in 2020-21. Same for Stardew Valley as well.

[small comet]

i sitll dont know what lures them

[scarlet marlin]

I DONT HAVE A SWITCH 2

[small comet]

isnt it digital only?

[mellow garden]

Haven’t played Stardew Valley either. Although I’ve played the coop Stardew Valley board game.

[small comet]

oh sorry i got 2 must have been yours that i received

[outer pollen]

I know they have that shitty game key cart

[mellow garden]

No, there’s a game key card.

[scarlet marlin]

i wouldve loved to receive one for free

[small comet]

digital only yes

[scarlet marlin]

nintendo sponsor me plz

i give u wooting

[mellow garden]

[small comet]

honestly id trade a switch2 for a lekker edition or signed tenz 80he (if i dont get one myself)

[scarlet marlin]

[outer pollen]

Did you see new tickets for Tama Uni Raquel?

[scarlet marlin]

how about a switch 2 for jirachi pouch

jk

[scarlet marlin]

yeah I did! my girl esther bunny get some love! saw that she's grown in popularity in JP

(its a korean character)

[small comet]

if it was the limited edition jirachi handbag with glow in the dark? maybe id do it

[small comet]

sounds like you said digital only with extra steps

[outer pollen]

[small comet]

have to say for me switch2 was worth it already

[small comet]

theres pigs?

i only found boars so far no pigs

[outer pollen]

First time seeing one lol

I really want fishing

[small comet]

also having a hard time finding iron... i only find copper

[small comet]

theres fish traps

[hardy merlin]

Okay, you got me, I'm buying it

[outer pollen]

apparently it runs good on the steamdeck

[small comet]

it runs good on too many things lol

[orchid prism]

Just like Vintage Story then, heh.

[trim rock]

When it looks like that it better perform well

[small comet]

i still question why the crap riot basically shot this game build in the wind

[hardy merlin]

There's still no controller support, so I'm not gonna try on Deck

[small comet]

have you seen minecraft

[outer pollen]

foxes as well

[trim rock]

Yeah I have

[hardy merlin]

Okay, MC foxes win

[outer pollen]

I think the foxes should be a tiny bit smaller imo

[outer pollen]

I've only seen copper myself

[scarlet marlin]

are u gonna kill it

[small comet]

i found iron by dumb luck when digging my mining post

[mellow garden]

My guess is monetisation

[outer pollen]

it attacked me ;-;

[trim rock]

They wanted to integrate Vanguard and it won't work well with that engine for whatever reason

[outer pollen]

The goats are cute

[small comet]

i like the upper torso zombies that sometimes run around at night

and the eldrich horrors flying around

[outer pollen]

apparently there's like a magma frog thing that's really tough

[small comet]

it hasnt seen me yet

[outer pollen]

Found the @proper basin s

oh yeah i killed a few of those

also killing baby animals doesnt drop loot

[timber topaz]

Rn there are so many issues w the api; for my server I had to remake the hytale server jar multiple times

[compact oriole]

theres some hytale fans here whove been playing

idk if i can trust it

[cold anvil]

ACNH 3.0 update is out

Unsure if the switch 2 version is also out

[mellow garden]

I believe that’s tomorrow

[quiet vault]

Why would a car that is already in the game right now be a preorder exclusive for the next title

[mellow garden]

Yeah, it’s something as tomorrow on the eShop even for digital.

[cold anvil]

Very not true lol

WAIT

WHAT

YOU ARE VERY TRUE

WHY WOULD YOU GIVE IT TO ME IF I CANT PLAY YET

[orchid prism]

[mellow garden]

Gaming discourse is going to be wild when Nintendo and Sony inevitably go fully digital.

Remember when you’d get physical copies early

[outer pollen]

Best frame ever

[narrow junco]

very pretty

[orchid prism]

Warframes have way too many things going on. Hard to focus on detrails.

[hot spire]

go deeper

[small comet]

there was sheep in there once

[verbal nymph]

should've build an electric fence

[small comet]

nice that mods are per world and can be toggled on and off per world as well

this whole server side modding has benefits i didnt think about before

[bleak pike]

Guessing you were hungry huh

Did mod makers have early access or are they insanely fast

https://www.curseforge.com/hytale/mods/easywebmap

[ivory dune]

Huh, is this like minecraft 2?

[mellow garden]

Perchance

[hardy merlin]

Minecraft without Microsoft

[orchid prism]

Fancraft.

[small comet]

insanely fast because hytale comes unobfuscated so mod makers can just easily make mods

also most of the game supposedly also uses the plugin system itself meaning you can just check how they do stuff

[hardy merlin]

They were also very open about mods before the game even released, so some modders could easily create assets

[small comet]

yes some very select mc modders got early access

[bleak pike]

Ye I saw macaws furniture

There was no way they managed to make so many mods so fast lol

[small comet]

eh blocks are supposedly super easy to make

[hardy merlin]

Slap some clay into the mold, fire in ny random kiln and you have a brick

[small comet]

im a bit sad the mod i showed earlier in the screenshot doesnt work rn

i really want to know what blocks im looking at

[hot spire]

yeah that should be a stock thing

[hardy merlin]

probs still will be, it's very early access after all

[small comet]

im more hopeful than before release that theyll hold to their word so yeah community feedback will prob bring that

[iron oak]

I’m quite nervous that they would make character customization like a dlc

[small comet]

not like it matters much imo

if its just cosmetics they can do whatever they want for all i care

[outer pollen]

I'm happy with the current packs

Like enough to hold me over for a long time

[hardy merlin]

As long as there's no fuuuuuuuin battle pass

[small comet]

yeah

[outer pollen]

Hopefully we get FOMO time limited stuff

[hardy merlin]

I don't mind paying for some cosmetics, but at least respect my time

[outer pollen]

i jk

[hardy merlin]

I'm gonna bite you

[iron oak]

🙁 I hope note

[iron oak]

Have they said they’ll add paid packs (besides the stuff within the tiered game versions)

[hardy merlin]

They are still looking into monetization and they'll consult with community they said

Eh, it won't be as egregious as Bedrock at least

[iron oak]

I just hope customization would be really good. I’d love to be able to dress up as different anime characters.

I loved that about Minecraft the ability to basically be any chapter for your skins

[hardy merlin]

Betcha some MS executive had some sleepless nights because of skins system in Minecraft and how much money they could've made out of that, but community would've eat them alive if they started charging money for it

[iron oak]

Oh certainly

[bleak pike]

Weeb

But tbh java was a blessing and Microsoft would probably abandon it if they could get away with it

[cold anvil]

Like how they abandoned legacy edition….

For a shitty mobile port..

And made said mobile port worse…..

[hardy merlin]

Pocket edition was peak

[iron oak]

I’m okay with them having higher tier backer exclusives. It’s an incentive to help fund the game. I just don’t want to be charged for cosmetics like every other game.

[sinful cobalt]

YES

[cold anvil]

Yeah it was :(

[hardy merlin]

I still remember how people were excited for 0.2.0 which added survival

[iron oak]

My best memories was when I played pocket edition Minecraft.

Ah when I was a wee lad, and you had to survive the night.

[cold anvil]

If I wanna play minecraft on the go I’ll just play Nintendo Switch Edition, I refuse to support bedrock

[verbal nymph]

I like the console port pre the bedrock stuff. PS3 minecraft is very nice.

[bleak pike]

Tbh bedrock on mobile is very good

I don't see the issue with them abandoning PE

[cold anvil]

Yeah legacy edition

[bleak pike]

What's so good about legacy edition

[iron oak]

Nostalgia?

[verbal nymph]

limited world size, which means I can't get lost and everything is just within reach.

[bleak pike]

I remember it being shit

And limited

[cold anvil]

Crafting is awesome, runs better, less issues, minecarts are 2 times faster

[verbal nymph]

and nostalgia

[hardy merlin]

Common codebase = a ton of bugs

Mini games were fun tbh but custom servers are better

[bleak pike]

Except Xbox account

Or ps account

But ye that's true

I guess

[iron oak]

Oh my god the mini games were so fun

[bleak pike]

Pretty sure you don't need an MS account on bedrock

[hardy merlin]

Oh, Xbox account requirement sucks
Microsoft must Microsoft

[bleak pike]

For Xbox

[cold anvil]

Accounts that you were already logged into ????

[iron oak]

I remember going to a friends house and we’d hop on his Xbox one and play mini games.

[cold anvil]

I mean yeah

[bleak pike]

Ok I just realized what I typed

[cold anvil]

And 4 player co op split screen!!!

[bleak pike]

Either way

Rose tinted glasses xs

[cold anvil]

Would you be saying the same thing if they all of a sudden got rid of java?

Yeah java wasnt all that different its just rose tinted glasses

[bleak pike]

Java didn't have shit limitations XD

[cold anvil]

Because it was made for weaker console generations!!!

[hardy merlin]

To be fair smartphones then were weaker than smartwatches now, so...

[cold anvil]

I’ll forgive mojang if they make minecarts 2 times faster

[verbal nymph]

can't wait for ps4 emu to get better, cause ps4 legacy edition seems to be best one with it having large world, and latest update (up to village and pillage)

[cold anvil]

100% sure there’s a modpack for java that bring everything back from legacy on modrinth

Up to the latest version of java too I think

[cold anvil]

Yeah all other versions stopped at the ocean update

[small comet]

i remember playing mc pocket edition on my xperia play.... ran like ass despite the like 250x250 or less map it had

also funnily enough the only mc i played besides java

i never played bedrock or the newer pocket editions back then

[hardy merlin]

When 0.1.0 still didn't had touch controls because it was Xperia exclusive

[cold anvil]

Pocket edition was one of the first versions I played as far back as like 2013

Then I got the ps3 edition as a kid

The grind continues

[little cape]

come home your family misses you

[mellow garden]

Anything for the queen

[small comet]

ok i did a dumb and installed the mod wrong

[cold anvil]

Only thing I’m mad about is the 1000 battle win grind I’m gonna have to do

One way to stretch the game I guess

I am going to get my moneys worth of every single penny I spent on this overpriced game.

Waiting for paycheck

[bleak pike]

you can reseve name without paying?

[hardy merlin]

Yup, you could ever since they allowed people to reserve names
You just had to do account, then they'd send you token like a day after

[bleak pike]

TIL

[hardy merlin]

Very cool to be honest, you could reserve your username and then wait until game releases to see how it looks

[bleak pike]

Creative mode is weird

[hardy merlin]

[iron oak]

Are you able to still?

[hardy merlin]

I think so

[iron oak]

coolio

[hardy merlin]

They'll tell you that you need a token, so you just have to enable newsletter and you should get a mail a while after with a token

[iron oak]

So I go on the site and find something that says reserve?

Can I do it from phone (pc out of commission)

[hardy merlin]

Sure, you just have to make an account

[trim rock]

Yeah but note that it might only stay reserved for a few weeks

[hardy merlin]

Till February 1st, then they retire reservation system

[sinful cobalt]

so quick question am i able to use all the functions of my wooting keyboard on cs2 with no consequences ?

[orchid prism]

Not without getting kicked for using SOCD

[iron oak]

I really hope the hytale team adjusts the player face. The eyes freak me out

[compact oriole]

theres no way this is real, is there

[hardy merlin]

https://www.reddit.com/r/MonsterHunter/comments/1qcy3hn/mh_wilds_bad_performance_mystery_solved/

Very likely that DLC check has been coded in like an hour and nobody checked that it impacts performance

Curse you Hytale for getting my favourite VS content creator to give your game a try 😛

And Hytale still looks like a vaseline smudged modpack for MC. There I said it 😄

[small comet]

not like it matters much what it looks like rn

[orchid prism]

🧢

[small comet]

ok baseball cap to you to? idk what its supposed to mean

oh its like tipping fedora i guess

[hardy merlin]

https://www.merriam-webster.com/slang/no-cap

[small comet]

ah mansen agrees it doesnt matter then. ok i liked my tipping fedora interpretation more

[hardy merlin]

There are people who make Minecraft-styled Hytale texture packs already

[small comet]

i mean there will prob be asset swaps to make it have mc char models etc as well

and prob also asset swaps to make it have vintagestory models

(although i feel like the VS swap if it ever happens would make also just make it look like an MC modpack)

[hardy merlin]

Looking cool though

[small comet]

have to say outside of mobs i dont really mind

[ivory dune]

The 64x has no like....life

[small comet]

and for mobs its only that some look too uncanny valley but given there was no dev progress for years until they decided to consolidate all development branches into 1 EA build, its fine

[compact oriole]

posting the cap basically means "BS"

[small comet]

that i dont get then

[compact oriole]

well no cap means true, and cap means not true

[small comet]

ok. dont get why he calls bs on it

its an over 5 years old playable tech demo

[orchid prism]

The opposite in fact.

The way the game is presented is highly unlikely to change dramatically. Most players are unlikely to ever add a meaningful amount of mods.

[small comet]

hm yes just like minecraft 11 yrs ago i guess

crap actually almost 16yrs ago.... way to feel old

[mellow garden]

Soon™ for ACNH Switch 2 edition

[orchid prism]

Minecraft still looks exactly the same as it did a decade and a half ago. 😄

[small comet]

yes and everyone installs no meaningful amount of mods at all

modding is actually dead for mc

[orchid prism]

Most don't in fact. That's an industry wide truth.

[mellow garden]

I’ve played enough modded MC to know vanilla is better.

[small comet]

so we are all in agreement

[compact oriole]

has anyone played mh wilds coop? is it still really annoying to play the story together as it was in worlds? iirc in worlds you needed to have the exact same progression or smth

[pure bear]

It's a bit better, but theres still the occasional "x hasnt watched cutscene yet" shit

[hardy merlin]

In MH Rise it was so much better in co-op

[compact oriole]

ive never played any mh before. when the agme is fixed up more or maybe with some dlc release id prolly give it a shot

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, in World you had to be on the same mission and you had to watch cutscene alone until game said it was possible to ask for help from other players
In Rise you just both had the same cutscene playing
But no idea about Wilds

[pure bear]

yeah waiting for the dlc is not a bad idea. The expansion is always the best MH

But i would still recommend to pick up wilds+iceborne in a sale, it's a good game and you get it cheap

that way you can also tell if you like MH

[hardy merlin]

World+Iceborne

[compact oriole]

i actually do own worlds and maybe iceborne

never really played it tho

[hardy merlin]

What do you mean, next thing you'll tell me that you didn't like Rampage quests in Rise

[pure bear]

they bad

[pure bear]

wilds is not too dissimilar and tbf many people liked it better aswell, so definitely give that a shot first

[hardy merlin]

Rise is more arcadey than World and more similar to older Monster Hunters, World is more new and dark-soulsy, but still a great game

[pure bear]

i dont get why people call rise more old school

Ur flying through the air at mach 3 it's closer to EDF5 than old school mh

I'm just sad that wilds really has no staying power

i dunno even why, I want to like the game but it's just... not grabbing me

[hardy merlin]

Because it is more old school than World

[pure bear]

in which aspects?

[trim rock]

In MH game design

[hardy merlin]

Rise is more arcadey and World is more dark-soulsy
I'd say that Rise was more similar to what I played on PS2 and 3DS than World

[trim rock]

They need to bring back attacks being on the right stick for the true old school experience

[pure bear]

oh no

007 First Light (@007GameIOI)

We are providing today an update to the PC system requirements for 007 First Light after the community flagged some inconsistencies in an earlier version of the listing.
︀︀
︀︀The earlier mistake was due to an internal miscommunication leading to an older version of the specs to be shared. After a thorough re-examination and additional testing, the recommended RAM has been corrected from 32GB to 16GB, VRAM values have been updated, and the minimum CPU line has been fixed. Additional performance targets will be shared closer to launch.
︀︀
︀︀We’re sorry for the confusion this caused and appreciate everyone who brought it to our attention. The updated specs are now live on our store pages, and we’re looking forward to sharing more of 007 First Light with you ahead of launch.

[iron oak]

I like the 32x quite a bit.

[pure bear]

yeah 32x is good

64 is uncanny valley

but tbf thats the same with mc texture packs

64x ones always looked odd to me aswell

[mellow garden]

I’m hard stuck naming my island as you can’t change it 😔

[trim leaf]

I think I used 128 last I played MC. Are theses for Hytale available as mods?

[scarlet marlin]

yeah thats the hardest part ;p

[outer pollen]

Johner's Island

[scarlet marlin]

and choosing the island layout

although you can change it along the way but that takes aloooooooooooot of time

[mellow garden]

Mandatory tutorial before you can save. Already enabled the cloud saves in-game as well.

Back to work for a bit though, then I can really sink my teeth into it.

Only 30 FPS even when docked on the Switch 2 edition. Not a huge issue as the resolution is good.

60 would’ve been nice.

[outer pollen]

That's weird

[vapid lintel]

oh yeah I love janky 30 fps on a shitty nintendo handheld, that totally is the 145 IQ end of the bell curve

[outer pollen]

straight doodoo shit

[orchid prism]

What a load of barnacles (I don't know the game)

[outer pollen]

It's Monster Hunter Wilds

They brought back an old "favorite" monster and back in the game it was introduced in there was underwater fighting. So they tried doing that but genuinely it's just evading underwater now? Like fucking stupid.

[maiden tulip]

moumouland

[maiden tulip]

Imagine thinking adding water levels to videogames is good

we all know water levels are BAD

fuck

Water levels

[pure bear]

its only part of the fight hto 🤷‍♂️

[outer pollen]

I enjoyed them in 3U

In 3U you'd actually fight them

not whatever the fuck this is

[pure bear]

treat it like an extended quick action sequence or sth and its not that bad

yes its meh but thats the compromise to get lagi ig

[outer pollen]

Most useless thing in this game

I'm glad we got MH Rise

The only good thing we've gotten

[maiden tulip]

rise is fun

i tried the demo for wilds and i didnt vibe with it at all

[outer pollen]

Cause MH World was ass and the casualization of the series

[mellow garden]

I called mine Etheirys which just happens to be the world that FFXIV takes place in

[compact oriole]

maybe she really wants to see your artifact tho

[vapid lintel]

I prefer the low poly version

[hot spire]

it looks so bad XD

[narrow junco]

world/iceborne >>>> rise

sorry but its true

[ivory dune]

How does it look bad...

It's literally the lara from the games

Even the glasses got used

[orchid prism]

Looks and feels are two different things. I am not super confident in her acting abilities.

(I am also tired to death of TR, so I couldn't give a shit either way 😄 )

[vapid lintel]

540 polygons is all you need

[ivory dune]

Yeah, fair, but saying her cupsize is too small (comment section) is absolute incel behaviour

[ivory dune]

I agree! I grew up with TR 1 and 2 hehe

[vapid lintel]

Twitter is garbage, yet Twitter's comment/reply section is orders of magnitude worse

[outer pollen]

Me if I was crazy

https://tenor.com/view/giygas-cat-melon-cat-psychotic-gif-25770926

[narrow junco]

i bounced off rise hard

iceborne is peak

[iron oak]

Her boobs are not triangles like the video game. My immersion is ruined.

[ivory dune]

Fair point. Have a nice day

Pun intended

[outer pollen]

World killed the series by turning it into the baby game we have now

Sunbreak did a good job of cementing itself as probably the greatest game, I put it above 4Ultimate and that’s saying a lot

[narrow junco]

i think world is really well done and has some of the best combat the series has ever seen

tho you could argue that it may be a touch easy at points

but at the same time all the mfs that complain if the game is "easy" complain as soon as they cart one time that a fight is unfair

[outer pollen]

I’ve been playing the series since Freedom Unite but I think I just prefer something that isn’t World and Wilds

I played both and genuinely don’t know how fans of the series can enjoy them

Based Rise wasn’t the greatest but Sunbreak was amazing

[narrow junco]

never got to playing sunbreak cause i disliked base rise so much

i think the fights etc in world/iceborne and wilds are fun, tho idk about some of the structure changes they did with wilds

some of that stuff feels a little weird

[hot spire]

yeah considering its larger than the last actress to play lara

[ivory dune]

Who cares

[outer pollen]

Lara is just a tough character I feel

2013 best

[hot spire]

you literally brought it up fam. The 2018 film was based off the reboot, and is the best of the 3 lara films. The new movie is also based of the reboot and the animated show

and the biggest change of the reboot was reducing her bust size lol

[ivory dune]

I meant it in a derogatory who cares way. I don't think characters breastsize is important in a characters design

[hot spire]

you may not, but most people do care.

[ivory dune]

Which is a problem, we don't care about james bonds privates, why should it be fair to not do the same to a woman

[hot spire]

its literally the reason the changed it so drastically in the reboot, which was to separate the characters.

[ivory dune]

Wait, my sentence is all discombombulated

I think we're saying the same thing btw

[hot spire]

bust size =/= junk size. It would be more compared to chest or bicep size on a male lead

[ivory dune]

It wouldn't, because bicep/mens chest is "allowed"

Whereas womens breasts are still "not allowed" in public spaces

[hot spire]

so are busts

yeah they are, we arent talking about nipples here

[ivory dune]

What

[hot spire]

unless youre in a super religuois encalve where cant you show off a bust?

[ivory dune]

The two are intrinsically linked. A man can have bare chest at the beach

A woman is generally not allowed yo do such

[hot spire]

but again bust isnt bare nipples, youre missing that

[outer pollen]

Now it all makes sense to me Jarvan

[ivory dune]

I think you're missing my point actually

[bleak pike]

I love 2013 so much

[cold anvil]

I thought this was really interesting

https://www.kkinstagram.com/reel/DStXLU0jPhc/?igsh=MXh4amg5NTY0N3NkaA==

[outer pollen]

They did such a good job with her

Curious to see what Shot is typing

[verbal nymph]

It does. Just go outside or remember the general shape of a person, you'll see that the even the most basic outline of their side/front gives you a way to recognised a person. If every character body proportions are the same, it'll look like they're clone. Also like, imagine seeing something is a fictional world, when going live action, I do also expect the proportions to be around the same. An extreme example would be to suddenly see Lara being a really thin person.

[ivory dune]

It's objectifying.

[cold anvil]

This rhythm game looks insane https://www.kkinstagram.com/reel/DSHC2VUDxwk/?igsh=cDU0bGM3dG43em1i

[narrow junco]

Who cares about consistency

Link has looked different in every single game and nobody complains

[compact oriole]

well at least lara isnt fat, ugly or male in this. im honestly more concerned with the writing. hopefully its not a shitshow as the netflix anime was

[narrow junco]

Tomb raider has been rebooted more times than the batman universe

[compact oriole]

i only know the actress from got so i cant really tell if she will do a good job

[narrow junco]

I sincerely hope they make the next tomb raider game about larry croft, lara‘s incompetent fat slob stepson

This whole discourse is so stupid and should not even be entertained tbh

[compact oriole]

to hope that the writing is good shouldnt be entertained?

[ivory dune]

Writing and hoping she can act is fair tbh

[compact oriole]

but ye people almost always start raging when the live action adaptation doesnt look 1 to 1

was the same shit with the witcher

"Superman is supposed to be geralt??? why is it not that 1 cosplay guy that looks like geralt"

ngl i wasnt on board with him either. until i saw him in the role

[little cape]

to be fair henry is an amazing actor

[compact oriole]

ye and hes hot af

[little cape]

what netflix did to him is unforgivable

[little cape]

Cavill, I mean

[compact oriole]

if you ask people what the perfect man looks like most people imagine him

he won the gene lottery

[narrow junco]

He was a shit superman tho

[ivory dune]

He was late for filming because he was raiding in WoW

[compact oriole]

well its a shit franchise so it fits

[narrow junco]

Not really his fault probably

[quiet vault]

fh6

[compact oriole]

ive never watched a single super man movie. i find him so boring as a character/hero

[verbal nymph]

Hmm, train

[bleak pike]

Sameeeeeeee

[narrow junco]

The new one‘s pretty good but yeah in general he‘s not super interesting

[bleak pike]

He's so overpowered too

In such a lame way

[compact oriole]

rock doesnt only beat scissors, it also beats super man

[bleak pike]

Homelander is so fun to watch because he's a parody of a stupid hero

[outer pollen]

That’s the whole point though

[bleak pike]

Ye but it's so boring

[outer pollen]

He still chooses to hold back and do the right thing

[compact oriole]

homelander is such a great villain

[outer pollen]

If I had that kind of power I’d be destroying countries

[compact oriole]

LOL

we found our resident villain

[bleak pike]

Omni Man is probably a great example of this tbf

[outer pollen]

Especially if I lose in a game I like, I’m taking that anger out on an entire city

[bleak pike]

But his character feels way more complex than Superman

[narrow junco]

If i had that kind of power i‘d doomscroll at superspeed

Maybe even hyperspeed

[bleak pike]

If I had that power I wouldn't be too worried about being disabled anymore

[outer pollen]

He was done so well honestly

[bleak pike]

However picturing my legs flapping while flying is amusing

[compact oriole]

i think if one actually has that kinda power itll kinda evolve into how saitama in OPM feels

[outer pollen]

Then we’d have Super Lulu and Super Charlie

[narrow junco]

I mean at that point just use telekinesis powers to walk around normally and nobody would know

[bleak pike]

Well we are on about superman here tbf

[cold anvil]

Wtf. Is this real!?

[compact oriole]

why doesnt xavier do that, now that you mention it

[narrow junco]

Telekinesis hero always at half power cause he needs to control all the bones in his body

[bleak pike]

https://youtu.be/uUcJoheLuNc

0:12 lol

[bleak pike]

Comes to mind

[hot spire]

he can, he likes the chair

[compact oriole]

i mean, it does kinda seem like a waste of powers to like make yourself move as if you were able to walk

[outer pollen]

I think he’s just chill like that

He does walk after house of m though

Then

back when "open world 3d rpg" was a distinguishing feature bethesda had sth, nowadays they're less than run of the mill just living on brand recognition

and funni haha bugs

[nimble current]

starfield turned out so lame and then they had to double down on the lameness with a just as lame dlc

[pure bear]

yeah it will be ass

[nimble current]

to really drive the point home

[hardy merlin]

ew

[pure bear]

ngl i forgot it even has a dlc so little did i hear about it

[nimble current]

lmao right its just as low effort as the main campaign

but they added a vehicle!

so you can explore the completely empty planets faster

[hot spire]

it has dlc?

[orchid prism]

Yeah they did a DLC about those spooky people that Andreja is part of or something. Couldn't find a reason to care.

[cold anvil]

Starfield was a waste of time, they couldve been working on fallout 5 or idk finishing es6

they were running into a wall with their abilities making skyrim and everything post that has been mostly running on empty

They had the money and resource to fix it and turn it into a No Man's Sky story. But they didn't.

[outer pollen]

I was working a lot of overtime during that period

The place I was at provided lodging and food for free

[cold anvil]

$1k spent on genshin stil….

[outer pollen]

I regret that so much

could have spent it on a better gacha

[cold anvil]

LOL

[sinful cobalt]

but Uma

[bleak pike]

I spent like 400 euro on black desert online

I did however sell my account and at least recouped it.

[orchid prism]

Look on the bright side. You're not Where Winds Meet whale levels.

The party boats go for somewhere around 30-60.000 USD depending on Gamba rng.

[sinful cobalt]

[orchid prism]

At least it becomes a social thing for real. The few who have boats are well known in the community.

[bleak pike]

The whales are popular?

Time for a hunting party

https://tenor.com/view/охота-hunting-ремесла-crafts-black-desert-online-gif-12765147299780083420

I miss black desert so much but it was like an abusive relationship lol

I played on a private server for a week and realised I was getting addicted again

[outer pollen]

I hear the combat is really fun

[bleak pike]

It really was

I couldn't tell you how it is these days tho

[novel estuary]

I've been pretty overwhelmed when I tried it a few months back after years. All the micro transaction gambling stuff blinking...

[orchid prism]

I'm enjoying Winds' relatively casual approach. Unless I want to start getting sweaty and do hard bosses in multiplayer like its an MMO, I log in and play maybe an hour on average each day. With content dripfed every few weeks.

Just received a new rework of some weapons, so my fan is a ton of fun now

[bleak pike]

Oh I stopped playing in like 2017 I think

[trim rock]

The new WWM version no longer lets you kill dogs, 0/10

[mellow garden]

I like how they’ve integrated online play into ACNH but equally there’s so much dialogue to just unlock the feature.

[orchid prism]

Welp.

[serene orbit]

Only 400 for an account? 🤔

[serene orbit]

It has the best combat out of any mmo to date

[bleak pike]

Nah 500

[serene orbit]

Few years ago most accounts went for 1k+ what was your gear at?

[bleak pike]

2017

I had an accuracy build with TET gear

Kutum/Christ I forgot the dragons name

[serene orbit]

Accuracy build

Kutum or nouver you mean?

[bleak pike]

Kutum offhand

Nouver main

[serene orbit]

If it was tet boss gear in 2017 i think you couldve gotten more than 500 ngl xD

[serene orbit]

Kzarka then

[bleak pike]

Oh ye that's the one

The thing is I had a lot of life skill too

[serene orbit]

Yeah we’re now on sovereign haha, but its actually really healthy rn if you wanna try again

Lots of catch up mechanics

[bleak pike]

Master trader, whatever was the highest fishing, hell I had a +4 cooking outfit lol

62+

My gear was lacking in some areas which is why the value was dropping

[bleak pike]

Are you NA or EU?

[serene orbit]

Eu

[serene orbit]

Master trading at the time is kinda insane ngl

[bleak pike]

I stopped playing not long after Kamasylvia

[serene orbit]

Thats still quite “recent” i think no? Idk

I actually dont know lmao

I also played since 2017

[bleak pike]

Do you not remember the whole AP Vs EU meta shit back then, NA were "AP monkeys"

[bleak pike]

2017

Lol

[serene orbit]

Yeah but even then accuracy was barely worth it

[bleak pike]

It most definitely was but it was towards the end when the meta shifted

Especially on archer

[serene orbit]

Archer was just full ap goat

1 tapping everything until nerfed into the ground

[bleak pike]

But again I kinda stopped playing properly, focussed on my master trading etc

[serene orbit]

You should pick it up again

[bleak pike]

Because I got sick of paying for fucking

Value packs

[serene orbit]

Try 1 month at most then quit if u dont feel it

[bleak pike]

Master trading was basically tax evasion

And my little elephant through the desert

[serene orbit]

I did sea monster hunting lol

[bleak pike]

I did that too!

[serene orbit]

Then it got nerfed cuz of exploiting

[bleak pike]

Was fun but buggy af

What server were you on?

[serene orbit]

You mean when there was still jordine and stuff?

Or whatever it was called

[bleak pike]

Ye

[serene orbit]

Pre merge

[bleak pike]

Ye

[serene orbit]

I dont remember ngl

Cuz first year i played on and off striker but didnt go hard yet

Then 2018 is post server merge already i think

And i started playing quite hardcore

[bleak pike]

I was an officer in a region war guild, I was basically useless but they kept me on because skills outside the game

Man, that game made me so toxic

[serene orbit]

I played nw hardcore lel

[serene orbit]

Haha same man, no moderators either

[bleak pike]

I don't exaggerate what I'm about to say.

I was training a tier 8 horse and the tree spirit boss popped up so I thought eh why not.... Some fucker killed my horse for no reason and I was so livid, having a death on a purebred basically meant it was a dud now!

I hunted him down constantly till he switched servers... However I put in global chat I'll gift pearls if someone can tell me the server and location of said name.... I hunted him down on 6 servers! Then he disappeared.

Probably the most toxic I was in that game but I was after blood

[serene orbit]

Thats tame man

[bleak pike]

One time someone kept killing my friends at pirates and I got so annoyed I just kept killing everyone I saw there lol

This island is mine now.

Just because one person was being a nob lol

[serene orbit]

Pirates/Sausans era we were exterminating guilds

Like 40k kills to max 10k deaths

[bleak pike]

Lol

[serene orbit]

Per guild

[bleak pike]

I wasn't that bad, I mostly kept to myself and joined wars

The last 8 months I probably retired my swords for life skills

I was making bank with trading

[serene orbit]

Drama was amazing, got a lot of lifelong gaming friends through it

[bleak pike]

I made the mistake of transporting crates on a node war server thinking I'd be safe since everyone is focusing on mode wars.

Nope

Lost me 100m on the spot

[serene orbit]

Back when 100m was crazy

[bleak pike]

Ye

It was painful

[serene orbit]

Now its up to like 6b/h at the new spots

[bleak pike]

My friends still make jokes about how I was screaming about my crates being destroyed in voice lol

I do miss it a lot

[serene orbit]

Play it lol

[bleak pike]

But I know I'll get addicted again

I always do try to replay it

And it's just an unhealthy relationship

[serene orbit]

Theres fun dungeons now too, but they have to add way more

[bleak pike]

I got my account back, for some reason the dude said he was done with it and just gave me the login lol

[serene orbit]

Lol

[bleak pike]

A few years after

But the nob sold my tier 8 horse

My stallion

Ma baby

That was called ||ElRetardo||

I was um... Not very creative with horse names, I think I named one pos

And names like bred for glue

[serene orbit]

Now you get free t10

[bleak pike]

Or along those lines

Ye I saw

Very different game now

I played on a private server for like two weeks in 2021?

I enjoyed it but again, addicting, it was becoming my life.

[serene orbit]

Which one?

[bleak pike]

Gamez

[bleak pike]

[serene orbit]

Oh lmao

U know sneeky?

[bleak pike]

Rings a bell

Idk why

[serene orbit]

Generally nr1 guild on pservers

[fading spade]

You can build the Pole Transportation System in Hytale

You can interact with anything from any distance away with the repair kit in your hand

So build a lot of poles as far apart from each other within render distance
Put a stool on them

Instant teleportation

[haughty whale]

any osu pro tryna coach me

[small comet]

the early access game has bugs?

damn

i never imagined

[fading spade]

[trim rock]

No way

[small comet]

[novel umbra]

That remaster ain't that old

Also goddamn kyle katarn is in there, the biggest badass in the entire star wars franchise, altho he is legends now

[outer pollen]

You mean Star Killer A the biggest badass

Before he got nerfed

[novel umbra]

actually debatable if full power star killer or katarn is stronger

I mean dark forces is about katarn gunning down half the death star to steal it's plans, and that is before he becomes a jedi

In knights academy he then proceeds to learn just about every technique and fighting style there is for jedis, mastering everything

[outer pollen]

Does starkiller rip the star destroyer out of orbit or just guides a crashing one?

https://tenor.com/view/starkiller-powerful-strong-gif-19380530

[delicate orbit]

what game is that

[novel umbra]

Black desert
