the ezio trilogy is so good

subtle flint
#

ezio trilogy is my childhood

tardy kayak
#

i had it on 360

#

same

subtle flint
#

me and my brothers played so much brotherhood so when we traveled to rome we knew where we were and stuff

tardy kayak
#

damn what

subtle flint
#

we for exampled recognized castel sant'angelo

tardy kayak
subtle flint
tardy kayak
#

getting the armor in brotherhood is really rewarding

subtle flint
#

the brohus or whate?

true vine
subtle flint
#

brutus?

tardy kayak
#

btw what do you think about revelations? i played it years ago but i dont remember if the game is that good

subtle flint
#

i remember that it was a big change from brotherhood

stark prism
#

if you really think about it purple and orange is basically the same color

subtle flint
#

theres a bunch of new things but i like it

#

i also feel like you can feel / notice that ezio is getting older and more sluggish

#

or thats just my imagination making things up

tardy kayak
#

maybe i should play it again

subtle flint
#

go for it

stark prism
#

falsehood

tardy kayak
true vine
subtle flint
#

ezio trilogy huntresschef

#

i also really wanna play the "new" god of war

#

the OST is amazing

stark prism
#

remember to drink at least 7 water every minute

#

osmose at every given opportunity

tardy kayak
#

7 water?

stark prism
#

if anybody notices, depart

true vine
#

cheese

subtle flint
tardy kayak
#

7 bottles? 7 liters?

frigid cosmos
#

yes 7 water. Do you not understand?

stark prism
true vine
#

tardy kayak
#

i have so many questions

true vine
stark prism
subtle flint
#

i wanna experience playing Kratos

tardy kayak
stark prism
frigid cosmos
#

Lmao i do that constantly

tardy kayak
#

getting that was really hard for a 7 year old

subtle flint
#

really was

subtle flint
#

but its quite honestly sick

true vine
cedar trench
#

Simo up what crimes will he commit

stark prism
#

to fixup the mentality one must think about the last time there was a moth under a streetlamp

#

and commence the inner glimpses into the space behind it

subtle flint
#

the armor of altair is also sick

#

the armor of altair is THE assassins creed armor

tardy kayak
#

OH

#

that one

subtle flint
tardy kayak
#

that was drip

true vine
tardy kayak
#

still is tbh

subtle flint
#

really is

true vine
stark prism
#

arson is for losers

subtle flint
#

playing assassins creed without hidden dagger feels so wrong

stark prism
#

simo aint one of those

true vine
tardy kayak
#

after i did pretty much everything in the ezio trilogy i started playing AC4

tardy kayak
#

getting the ac4 armor is soooooo

subtle flint
#

i tried the new valhalla game but the only thing i did was just gambling and drinking

#

walking around with the apple of eden was such a badass moment

tardy kayak
#

tbh the only games that i tried after ezio trilogy was ac4, ac rogue, the one with the brothers and thats it

tardy kayak
subtle flint
#

oh no i meant in the older games

tardy kayak
#

oh yea

subtle flint
#

iirc the apple got destroyed

tardy kayak
#

i never played ac1

#

wait nevermind the eden's apple scene was in ac2

subtle flint
#

ye

#

for some reason i really hate desmond

tardy kayak
#

fuck i want a better pc and money to buy the entire ac collection on steam

#

good times

subtle flint

JONNY PeepoSipSpin

gilded adder
#

Sam shroompog

subtle flint
#

has jonny played god of war?

gilded adder
#

no

subtle flint
#

damn

#

have you played the old Assassins creed games?

gilded adder
#

I have not

subtle flint
#

jonny missing out big time

tardy kayak
#

the council shall judge yours act

subtle flint
#

jonny is cool so is fine tho

tardy kayak
#

ok

#

btw is ac1 good?

marsh ibex
subtle flint
tardy kayak
#

NOOOOOOOOOCNONONONO

marsh ibex
#

Your answer will affect your modhood

tardy kayak
#

that game...

subtle flint
#

but if youve played ac2 and beyond its hard to go back ig

tardy kayak
#

welp as a kid i never tried to understand the lore so i'm good to go

#

i only remember that everyone who hold the apple of eden becomes giga chad

subtle flint
#

iirc the side missions is just rinse and repeat

#

i would reccomend only doing main story

tardy kayak
#

noted

gilded adder
marsh ibex
#

good

subtle flint
#

jonny and joker, what are your childhood games?

opaque sigil
#

ac1 is not nearly as good as its sequels

gilded adder
marsh ibex
#

also a DS rabbids time travel game

gilded adder
#

This is what made boys into men.

subtle flint
#

i remember i had a gameboy advance sp and i used to play this finding nemo game

#

also a link to the past i think

subtle flint
opaque sigil
#

don't be weird

subtle flint
#

i also remember we used to have a 8-bit system

#

thats probably in the basement vibing somewhere

opaque sigil
subtle flint
#

i never had a wii growing up

opaque sigil
uncut citrus
#

i only had a wii

#

and computer i guess
but even then, after the wii

subtle flint
#

8-bit system, xbox-360 (with kinect pog), pc

#

idk what else, a gameboy advance sp i guess

cerulean sable
gilded adder
#

I remember watching a lot of Patapon 1, 2 and 3 gameplay on Youtube

subtle flint
gilded adder
#

Those games always seemed so cool

cerulean sable
#

ofc it was cool it was goddamn Patapon

#

the best army management sim since Total War

gilded adder
#

Maybe I should "play" them sometime. feelspkman

cerulean sable
#

but Total War wishes it was Patapon

alrighty aftere Celeste i am close to adding a no Earthbound rule here

jonny I don't think anybody cares about emulating games for obsolete systems feelspkman

gilded adder
wary imp
steady sage
cunning geode
#

yes.
but not the one I linked

subtle flint
#

lol

cunning geode
#

however the one I linked is my favorite wii game of all time

#

so too bad

gilded adder
#

Also, Ttacco, I was looking around and doing some research and I got another Qud story for you. Apparently, you can become such a powerful esper that a transhumanism society starts hunting you down because you're abusing the laws of the universe and they don't like that. God, I need to play this game so badly.

wary imp
#

Wii U is an underrated system

cerulean sable
#

lmao yeah

#

Qud has so many of that nitty shit

cedar trench
subtle flint
#

i feel like kenshi is suchj a cool game if you get into it

opaque sigil
#

holy shit has this qud game literally been in EA for seven years

formal karma
#

Hey Tammo I got my ink

opaque sigil
#

nice

gilded adder
cerulean sable
#

i did get into kenshi for some time because it gave me the same Mount and Blade vibe, my favorite was a 15vs 8 duel between a bandit a my group on some chokepoint near a river

steady sage
cerulean sable
#

my only issue its grindy af

subtle flint
#

mm

gilded adder
opaque sigil
#

I'm not criticizing I just think it's kinda funny

gilded adder
#

I know, I know.

#

Just talking

cerulean sable
#

this is the type of complexity that will most likely never happen in some graphical game

#

not arguing about "superiority" and that shit

cerulean sable
#

but rather the tradeoff of lacking graphics vs content

gilded adder
#

What's crazy is that the game still looks better and more stylized than most other traditional roguelikes

cerulean sable
#

which is where traditional roguelikes exel

gilded adder
#

That I've seen at least

#

Like it has a unique vibe and charm to the aesthetic that I really like

cerulean sable
#

yeah unfortunately a lot of traditional roguelikes can be kinda plain or pure ascii

subtle flint
#

does anyone here know of long gone days?

#

thats a no im my eyes

formal karma
#

That sounds like so many games

subtle flint
#

Long Gone Days is an RPG about modern-day conflicts, language barriers, and the human cost of war.After being deployed to his first mission, Rourke leaves The Core's base for the very first time, only to discover the dark truth about the operation he's part of and the consequences of deserting an inescapable war.Communication is Key: As Long Gon...

Looks interesting

subtle flint
#

i remember playing it a while back and really enjoying the story

cerulean sable
#

heres another ascii based roguelike made by a single dude as a hobby and you can make ascii stylized

gilded adder
#

Nice

subtle flint
cerulean sable
#

not really

#

its top down

#

the radius is your light

#

and theres the typical abilities and shit

subtle flint
#

looks cool

cerulean sable
#

the dev was basically just showcasing his changes here hence he teleported

gilded adder
#

Everything is turn based for most, if not all, traditional roguelikes so you can think about each move you make before you make it

cunning geode
#

i like oldstyle stuff but ascii is a bit out of my aesthetic zone

#

doesnt click with me

cerulean sable
#

and by think you mean find a narrow corridor, funnel them and then slaugther them one by one

cunning geode
#

let alone an ascii rpg

gilded adder
cerulean sable
#

which is why i also cant play Dwarf Fortress without a tileset

cunning geode
#

yeah i looked at it and it looks like something a lot of people are gonna enjoy

#

but I just cant play those games

#

no interest

subtle flint
cerulean sable
#

that is fair

#

the steam release looks better at least

cunning geode
#

i would have lots of fun watching people play them though

cerulean sable
gilded adder
#

Yea, I was about to say that there's a Steam version in the works for Dwarf Fortress

subtle flint
#

rimworld looks cool

cerulean sable
#

Rimworld is good but its basically DF lite in terms of complexity

gilded adder
#

I think DF might be stretching it for me cause you have to manage a whole society zote I like focusing on my one character.

cerulean sable
#

Rimworld feels auto generaty even with their characters

subtle flint
#

DF?

cerulean sable
#

think of Dwarf Fortress as an ant colony sim

gilded adder
#

Dwarf Fortress

subtle flint
#

ohok

silver oak
subtle flint
#

war of the ants

#

is this dwarf fortress?

uncut citrus
#

war of my eyes

silver oak
#

War of 80s TV

zinc oar
#

GG

silver oak
#

Or before probably

subtle flint
#

factorio looks so cool but it also looks hard to learn

zinc oar
gilded adder
#

I've had some friends who were into Factorio

cerulean sable
#

also Dwarf Fortress trading mechanics is pretty good

silver oak
#

I, uh, like Google Earth

cerulean sable
#

they send a Liason first, then they talk to you
then you can make demands of what you can export easily or what you need the most

like say for the human will first show what they need the most so you can easily get more money for those types of materials, then you can give your demands of what YOU need so the caravan will prioritize bringing more of it once they arrive BUT ofc theyre gonna slap a slightly bigger cost to it

#

and you generate so much wealth that the next goblin attack you get is composed of 80 strong men filled with really powerful units so yeah grats your run will now end

#

learned that the hardway

subtle flint
#

sounds cool NODDERS

cunning geode
#

its a clever game

cerulean sable
#

wish rimworld has more interactions with the outside

#

right now the factions feel like theyre just there

#

i did already talk about the Dwarf Fortress cat bug right?

subtle flint
#

iunno

silver oak
cerulean sable
#

tldr

Bug was happening where random cats were dying randomly
Turns out when dwarves drink at taverns they spill alcohol on the floor
Back then unit of measurement for water was "1 unit" with no point difference
Cats would walk around taverns which means theyd get alcohol on their paws
Cats naturally lick themselves to clean themselves
Since liquid is by units, 1 unit of alcohol is enough to kill their livers due to their small body:weight ratio
Cats then die

cunning geode
#

incredible

subtle flint
#

literally awesome

silver oak
#

This bug is how you know your game is too complicated

cerulean sable
#

the guy is going to try and simulate life

#

which is why its at version 0.40 which iirc means "40% of simulating real life"

cunning geode
#

well when your game is visually like navigating radar the gameplay better be good to compensate

cerulean sable
#

lmao yeah

subtle flint
#

what happens if the game goes to version 1.2

cerulean sable
#

DF bitches be like "this gameplay is fire"

cunning geode
#

also there is a lot of freedom with expanding gameplay and weird quirks to the max

silver oak
cunning geode
#

good luck simulating evolution properly

cerulean sable
#

tbh i dont think were gonna see 1.0 with Toady still living so theres actual talks of concerns if his death will includes open sourcing the project

#

i know it sounds uhh

#

morbid

cunning geode
#

no that makes a lot of sense

silver oak
subtle flint
#

yeah makes sense i guess

cerulean sable
#

but considering HE only has access to it and hes like 50, there are talks and concerns for a failsafe option

#

because seriously losing something like this forever IS gonna be sore

subtle flint
#

yeah

silver oak
#

How long has it been in development

cerulean sable
#

since 2005 i think

#

August 8, 2006

#

apparently

subtle flint
#

kekw

silver oak
#

Would you have been older if it had been 2005

subtle flint
#

depends on when in 2005

burnt topaz
#

thats still longer than some peoples life spans in this discord

subtle flint
#

yes

cerulean sable
#

because i still remember bugs where mass is calculated but volume wasnt
so you could put infinite amount of stuff inside a container which will proportionately increase its mass

so a guy would kill some enemy, put their body in a casket, then use that casket as a makeshift hammer, then hed kill someone with it, put their corpse inside, then rinse and repeat

eventually the casket got so much mass that hitting someone with it is enough to jettison them into a million pieces across the map

burnt topaz
#

scary

subtle flint
#

me exact thought

silver oak
#

Woah amina pick name

damn.

#

sep

cerulean sable
#

yeah again game is super detailed which is why im willing to give it a pass despite its permadeath nature vs to more modern roguelites

silver oak
#

I’m in the middle, may

subtle flint
#

fuck you amina ghlGRR

cerulean sable
#

no offense to them, modern roguelites are more focused on action but for me the interactions of stuff in traditional roguelikes is what makes it appealing to me

burnt topaz
#

hey its your birthday soon though, just a few more months!

subtle flint
#

!!!

cerulean sable
#

features such as fire interacting with folliage would be an afterthought on these games

cerulean sable
#

hey tbf

i never got into traditional roguelikes until 2012

I'd like to see a passive tool that's like a good version of heavy blow

#

let me explain

subtle flint
#

kinda cool, just sitting, reading peoples theories and speculating

tall juniper
vivid belfry

this tool would give increased knockback, but only to hornet's dash attack. Additionally, enemies would take extra damage upon impacting a wall or another enemy

heavy blow but good

I'm intrigued

vivid belfry

increases the knockback of only the dash attack and makes enemies take bounce damage from hitting walls or each other when struck with said dash attack

Meh.

but i held on to it since its a good refrence either way

#

I have my own concerns for Silksong if I'm honest, mostly around how differently Hornet is set to play compared to The Knight.

subtle flint
#

i mean, i guess that it gives the game a bit of charm

coarse leaf
#

I'm not a fan of how Hornets Needle seems to play in the Trailers tbh, or how long and winding her jumps seem to be.

instead of making a second game with the exact same moveset and shit

this being my point

God of War did that for 5 straight games.

the souls series

And it never once got old.

Prince of Persia, The Souls Series for the most part.

#

Games having the same moveset with minor additions from past games isn't boring - that's how video game sequels have mostly worked for going on 2.5 decades.

serene chasm

very true

SS follows the same basic moveset just tweaked

Regardless, The Knights dead and gone so we have Hornet.

My only gripe with Hornet is how aerial she seems to be in the trailers, and how imprecisely she controls compared to The Knight.

Listening to it rn, inspirational lyrics, keep at it folks, lifes hard and bullshit gladeline 👍

I'm sure it'll be fine once I do play it - I have every intention to buy it after the masterpiece that HK was - but rn I'm skeptical.

Everything looks....looser, than it did in the last game.

hornets moveset is different so it would probably be easier to weave in and out hitting them through theyre shields and blocks and stuff

HK looks more precise in my eyes

coarse leaf
nimble pebble
#

Well, the issue I feel sometimes with formulas is yeah, it's cool when you invented one, and it works people like it and when people play future titles they know what to do, the problem is when the Formula is copied to oblivion by other companies and especially the original company in question, there tends to be no more element of surprise in anything because actions are predictable which some people will find drab

coarse leaf
#

She seems to control a lot more imprecisely than The Knight ever did.

#

But maybe that's just trailer footage.

grave snow
nimble pebble
#

The Knight was very static in movement

grave snow
#

man I can't wait for silksong speedruns

subtle flint
#

i can

coarse leaf
#

If HK did one thing right, and to clear, it did almost everything right, but a big one was controls.

The Knight controlled VERY precisely and on a dime.

#

He didn't move a centimeter you didn't tell him too.

nimble pebble
#

It was more a very precise brick

coarse leaf
#

Hornet from trailer footage seems to have that Rockstar effect going on where she keeps going on and on and on even after a button has stopped being pressed.

subtle flint
#

it might be more precise from what we think

coarse leaf
#

Very floaty.

#

Maybe, I hope so.

#

It's the one thing giving me pause for SS.

nimble pebble
#

Hornet's moveset is catered to comboing the shit out of things

subtle flint
#

and also she has the different crests and things so there could possibly be some setups that are more like the knights

#

more preicse and more of hornets style of fighting with the long dashes and weaves

coarse leaf
#

I just hope it's more than we saw from her as an enemy in HK.

subtle flint
#

i would think that of course it is

coarse leaf
#

Personally I want hornet to flip that needle around and use it like a club.

#

Give us a charm to do that.

subtle flint
#

thats what its looking like it is right now

marsh ibex
nimble pebble
#

If Hornet can fly off after striking an enemy there's a fat chance you can immediately enter an input to turn around and strike again, like I said her moveset looks heavily catered to comboing

#

Well, that's how I see it anyway

subtle flint
#

she could have crests where her attacks are more careful and precise and other crests where they are more powerful / carefree

coarse leaf
# marsh ibex You can’t assume how a character controls if you haven’t played them yourself

Footage though. I'm not gonna assume much of anything, but I will observe what I'm shown - Hornet seems to be alot more aerial than the Knight ever was, even outside of Combat, and moves in the air horizontally more than he ever did. I'm not saying she's the least precise controls in any video game ever, but she certainly looks more floaty than the incredibly precise, do as I say and not a nanometer more, stop on a literal dime Knight.

wary imp
#

I really want to ping for oblove, but I can’t

#

Which is fine....she's clearly going to play differently, I just hope the controls are still tight.

why no

That is definitely true. Hornet is all about the air combo combat

this crest seems to give the most hk style combat

wary imp
#

I really want a LGBTQ right now

coarse leaf
#

Also I'll be real for a minute - if The Knight wasn't dead at the end of HK, I would 100% want him back for Silksong over Hornet.

I'm not a huge fan of when game sequels change the main character or swap up combat styles and controls significantly.

Most of the reason I'll be playing Silksong is because of just how much a grand masterpiece the original HK was, and I have faith Team Cherry, far more than almost any other studio in existence, including AAA ones tbh, can pull this off.

#

I actually do prefer games keep the same style of combat between sequels.

nimble pebble
subtle flint
#

it would be really cool if the crests are customizable to the point of having unique builds with the precision and strength

grave snow
#

over hornet? lurkersweat

coarse leaf
#

So this, changing of literally everything to Hornet doesn't sit right with me.

wary imp
#

I’m hungry man

coarse leaf
#

Historically that's not been my cup of tea.

nimble pebble
wary imp
#

I want a lettuce, guacamole, bacon,tomato, and quantum physics sandwich

That was always the plan. Hornet was meant to be a playable dlc character with her own story for HK

subtle flint
serene chasm
#

That grew into Silksong

coarse leaf
wary imp
subtle flint
#

still, opinion based but yeah, i understand what you mean

coarse leaf
#

Again, I still look forward too it and I'll still be buying it off GOG and Steam (one for DRM Free, one for Achievements) at launch, but I'm now and always have been very iffy on making Hornet the lead for the game.

serene chasm
nimble pebble
#

Also it's because TK's story is done and Hornet's story is beginning. We should count ourselves lucky we get a sequel, TC have already discussed exploring their other ideas for games Post-SS the fact we get more HK content is a blessing and something actually planned (like tools) and not added 2 months before release (charms) will likely be much better

coarse leaf
#

Not because of anything Hornet herself did, just because I prefer that sequels control pretty much the same as prior games in the series.

nimble pebble
serene chasm
#

well we didnt know that

nimble pebble
#

At the time no

#

But Leth confirmed it quite a while ago, as he suggested SS being a game during the HK development which TC agreed with Leth

Based on the Median price of $15 USD and the around 4-6 Million copies of HK sold over all platforms HK has grossed around 45 million to 90 million with the high and low balling before taxes and paying the various platformers their cut, but TC have mentioned they live comfortably but would never "Go buy a Ferrari" as that's not really their interest, they don't want expensive extravagant things they want to make games and for people to play them

nimble pebble
coarse leaf
#

For the record though, I do think you can save on a lot of development costs when your entire staff is 3 people, your game needs 0 advertising off the back of your last mega hit, you're probably re-using the same equipment to make SS you did to make HK, you're working almost entirely from home, and most of your costs are from already millionaire devs whose biggest expense is probably eating from home.

nimble pebble

#

Point is though, it's not like they need to pay for a studio, workers, janitors, other staff aside from a few VA's you can probably hire off of Fiver, they're probably using home computers (if very, very powerful computers probably), don't need to pay for advertising at all because the games already mega famous, etc etc.

Their biggest expense probably literally is their individual food budget.

I can't think of anything hardware wise they wouldn't already have from making HK.

Why would you pay for advertising for a game that's already so famous it has basically the only Discord Server for a single player game that's still active about 5 years after the only game in the franchise launched.

Not even games like God of War or Tomb Raider have communities are strong and as fervently looking forward to the next game as HK.

Of course they aren't taking Millions but it's not cheap to employ people either

#

Not in this industry

Kieldor, Leth is the PR/Marketing director, reason you don't see him doing much on this front is because people are already doing his job for him by spreading it like wildfire by word of mouth so he can work on other aspects of his job

# nimble pebble Why were you in 95 servers

I wasn't. I was in 194 servers. And my last account was basically as old as Discord itself, more or less off by about 2 months from the time the service started.

Nitro boosts you to 200 servers joinable isntead of 100, but after the rebrand I stopped supporting Discord, so after I lost Nitro I would have had to leave 95 servers manually - which means deciding which 95 servers I could live without manually, and going through each extensively, etc etc - or I could just have the account fully deleted, open a new one under the same name, and just rejoin all the servers I was actively in to begin with.

subtle flint

trying to get comfortable in a new server scares me

Despite the whole "it takes seconds" thing, that's not actually true. It's a huge decision and a gut wrencher. And I would've had to do it 95 times to get under the 100 server limit.
