After playing Donut County this week, it's time for a new installment of what game should Morgan (finally) play:
A: Inside
B: Night in the Woods
C: Dust: An Elysian Tale
option with the most reacts wins
royal kestrel
It was really cute, the sound was great, and it was beautiful. I tend to like my games to be a little mechanically and narratively deeper, but next time I have a couple hours to kill I would certainly play it again and probably achievement hunt hehe! After playing through on Steam I kind of wish I had bought it for Switch so I could enjoy it on the go.

oooooh sweet!! ive been on the fence abt buying it but maybe i should give it a try sometime!!

Inside is another good game. Short but with a really interesting message.
Their first game Limbo had a ending that hit harder I would say

@faint panther thanks for passing the source image by
it's not traced at all, it's the original image just made transparent.
then edited a bunch
most of the stuff i edit i grab from random discord servers so i never really know sources
so you could say it's one step below traced i suppose
lunar flicker
oh also here's the transparency thing if you want a cool transparent thingie
it'd be really funny if it was traced though since the thing on her shoulder seems to be kind of a watermark since it contains "don"
i wonder if someone ever accidentally traced a watermark thinking it was supposed to be in the design

velvet void
The main reason I love indie games is the fact is that they're personal. There is no big investors or 100 employees to account for. The end result is something personal, something that the edges werent sanded down for fear of not being able to reach a large audience.
Dingalong really did create something personal with Lisa and I love for people to at least experience what he created.
lunar flicker
Oh yeah
I love indie games for a lot of reasons, one of them is that it feels like they're mostly doing it as an artform, not as a profit
a lot of AAA games these days are just money cows
north hamlet
When you think about it mainstream media in general needs to have broad appeal to get enough money back to be worth it so it makes sense for them to be pretty ok for a lot of people, as opposed to amazing for a handful of folks
lunar flicker
I absolutely get that, it's a business, but still
velvet void
Yeah that's what I mean. Theyre big companies and companies need to turn a profit.
They go after what sells
And what sells Is the same yearly, regurgitated drivel that has been done a thousand times.
Although some companies do still pull through

Yeah, thankfully

I find it darkly amusing all these giant publishers claim to need all these ways to make more money with each game and yet, Supergiant has yet to release a DLC, three games and is going strong
velvet void
Well the scale is very different

Well supergiant is much smaller and dont need to pay as many people as ubisoft or EA does
Tho i fully believe that EA is a scam

when youre charging 60 bucks, they needs to be a lot more in your game

It's budgeting, which appears to be a lost art

I do understand the scale for Pyre and something like Destiny is very different but that isn't an excuse to business bad

Its also the publishers fault, they tend to push the games out before theyre ready
candid sparrow
(Looking at EA and mass effect andromeda)
lunar flicker
dont make it something that should be in the base game
tardy anchor
also depends on whether ur goal is "get rly rich" or "have enough to make another game" ig
lavish anchor
The goal for most people is probably the second until they get bought out and the IP is farmed for cash
lunar flicker
EA wants to make all of the money tho

if ur established n kno ppl will buy no matter what, you put oit unfinished stuff n try 2 milk for more money

I never figured them out back in the day Kam! I had friends with them, but I felt like I was getting robbed of the full game experience
tropic garden
i borrowed action replays from my daycare friends lol

Although I assume my friends who saved their allowance for a Game Genie are the same ones now spending money on microtransactions to get through DMC 5 faster

and uhhhh killed my pokemon ruby cartridge...

you have to flip through the menus in a very specific order or the game crashes gkjdfgdf

"The Game Genie sold with a booklet of codes for use with various games available for the system. However, new codes continued to be developed and new games were released after these booklets were published. To address this, Galoob created a paid subscription service where subscribers would receive quarterly code updates. In addition, Galoob also ran ads in certain gaming publications, such as GamePro, that featured codes for newer games."
Game Genie was also the original subscription model 😂

I definitely subscribed to Nintendo Power, but more so I knew which games to rent. They didn't publish cheat codes!
tropic garden
nintendo power was before my time, sadly
my go-to was gamefaqs...the era of the internet
i had, i kid you not, a large carboard box full of printed FAQs and cheat guides from gamefaqs that I would pull out whenever I sat down to play playstation games
the days before mobile computing...
couldn't just. bring my laptop into the living room, no sirree
tardy anchor
i did not have like....any internet resource knowledge back in the day so i had to go to toys r us and buy the huge book about the game

i played pokemon crystal on an emulator recently (till nintendo took it down lmao) and it was AMAZINGLY fun

I had read the oregon trail lets play and i was like "i gotta check this game out"
sullen comet
@@royal kestrel I played emerald (I think it was) on my browser.
velvet void
@candid sparrow that's what I'm hoping for, however, people seem to forget the silent majority exist. Any profit from this and Capcom will keep it. For now I'll just wait on it until the game releases and see if they keep to their word and the game isn't a grind fest without it.
tardy anchor
hey you know what was a GREAT old game? imagine master chef for nintendo ds
THE ART WAS SO CUTE....
candid sparrow
never heard of it
tardy anchor
tbh if u ever have opportunity to play it, you should

I've never heard of it either!

@fading bobcat hopping over to offtopic- what exactly are u trying to do there?
fading bobcat
Work in Eikaiwa
English as a Second Language Teacher
Entry Level work pays avbout 3000 USD a month
benefits and sponsorships, healthcare and living help included
I've found that I've got a knack for Japanese and I'm good at explaining some of the more culturally confusing aspects of English
I used one of Yoko Taro's games, SINoALICE, to essentially bring my skills in Japanese from Illiterate to "Conversationally Capable" in about 11 months
tardy anchor
ohhh neat!!
fading bobcat
Knowing Japanese isn't even a requirement for the job
it's just a good way of getting recognized
and hired ahaha
tardy anchor
really? id imagine itd be nessesary 🤔
fading bobcat
No, they believe in Total Immersion
Eikaiwa literally means "English Conversation"
Your JOB is to talk in english
there's part time work available at various cafes and tutoring gigs all across the country
Eikaiwa Cafes are a business that's been booming for about 10 years
when I graduated High School in 2008, I'd considered doing the job, but I didn't think the industry would go anywhere
now it's a solid option, and honestly the only really good one I have going for me
Illustration is wonderfully fulfilling work, provided I have professional working partners willing to pay real money for the very real work I do
but it is NOT stable income
and I'm looking to climb out of the Hobo Gutter, not make my bed in it.
Um but I should probably continue this here in offtopic

Magic the Gathering ain't no children's card game, it won a MENSA award in 1990
It's the most complicated rules-lawyering card game I've ever had the joy of mechanically dissecting.
But I stopped paying money for it and just play the digital version now. The art direction is impeccable and it's what made me want to be an Illustrator
but I'm almost 30 I had to rein in on extraneous spending

mtg is the most extraneous spending

tropic garden
"zine" is short for magazine, they're self-published collections of art, poetry, and/or writing that are usually distributed on a small scale
the internet has made it much easier to put zines together and sell/distribute them, so they've become a popular format for fanartists to collect fandom works
