#

wow so u put everything into sppech and stealth and totally experience the entirety of fnv

#

genius

fathom juniper
#

not entirety
i haven't said that

mortal siren
#

see you just cant accept its a main part of the game as well

fathom juniper
#

what

mortal siren
#

you said because you can technically speedrun the game without killing anything, therefore combat is unnecessary

fathom juniper
#

i haven't said any of those things
nothing about speedruns
nothing about killing anyone (though you can still do that)
and i didn't say that combat is unnecessary

#

my point is that yes - combat is still a part of those games
a part - singular

#

it's not the main thing nor should it be

mortal siren
#

literally 7/ 13 of fnv skills is combat based

fathom juniper
#

because ultimately fallout is and should be an RPG
a genre that's focused on players choice
so if i choose to do something a certain way - i should have the ability to learn skills and get perks and what not to solve a problem that way

mortal siren
#

oh lets ignore all these, who cares about combat anyways amirite

#

because apparently all rpgs must be strictly talking and nothing else

fathom juniper
#

you know what
i'm done repeating myself

#

there's no getting to you

#

what's the point

#

i just hope someone else comes here and reads all of this because it's downright hilarious

mortal siren
#

because you cant accept its always been a hybrid

#

not just an rpg

#

you just have too rigid of a thingking to see the big picture

fathom juniper
mortal siren
#

yes and its a main part

#

i bet you must think roguelite fps dont exists too

fathom juniper
#

christ almighty

digital fulcrum
#

Alright, I'm going to request a topic change to basically anything else at this point, people

twin yarrow
#

if you ask me, i'd put FO4 in settlement sim category

digital fulcrum
#

yes i realise i'm rather late but we're not reviving this topic, alright, the next conversation should be Something Else

twin yarrow
#

does that count?

digital fulcrum
#

i'll allow it lmao

fathom juniper
#

hi sparrow aPES2_HappyWave

#

so

#

did anyone here play portal: reloaded yet?

twin yarrow
#

looking forward to it

#

Someday™️

fathom juniper
#

it's REALLY good

#

i finished it in one 8 hours long session

#

and BOI

twin yarrow
#

tbh, all the hints of possible time travel from P2 always made me curious

fathom juniper
#

did my smooth bren grow some wrinkles

#

yeah

#

i mean - hell - wheatley even mentions the three portal device himself

#

in one, super obscure dialogue line

twin yarrow
#

hopefully will feel the same, there are not much games that made me feel like new neurons are growing in my head as i'm playing

fathom juniper
#

same

twin yarrow
#

first being P1 and Fez

fathom juniper
#

like - i played a lot of portal back in the day
including mods for p1 and p2 (especially after valve released that level editor)

#

and i found out that most maps and mods fall into one of two categories

twin yarrow
#

there were several pretty complicated ones

fathom juniper
#

either 1 - big, epic journeys with convoluted maps, new bossfights and epic music and what not

#

or 2 - just... big maps
with a lot of jumppads

#

portal reloaded does neither of those
all puzzles seem... simple
they don't have many steps
and most of them are literally just one, medium sized room

wraith cradle
#

God the wait for Nier is killing me :/

fathom juniper
#

buuuuuut
then you open the green portal and have to thonk in 4 dimensions

wraith cradle
# fathom juniper and i found out that most maps and mods fall into one of two categories

Have you played this one?

Quite good mod

fathom juniper
#

oh i heard about it a while back
haven't played it yet

wraith cradle
#

My fav one

fathom juniper
#

does it have any new mechanics?

wraith cradle
#

Yes

twin yarrow
#

yeah, that as well

#

also i remember Portal: Prelude for 1st one

#

was quite hard sometimes

fathom juniper
#

yeyeye - that's the one

twin yarrow
#

gosh.. there was a whole fanbase

fathom juniper
#

yeah

twin yarrow
#

memes, fan cartoons

fathom juniper
#

so...
what are the new mechanics in mel?

#

cause i don't see any in the trailer PES_Think

stable kindle
#

let's not refer back to it after a mod has just said move on

tame veldt
#

kk

stable kindle
#

ty friendly

wraith cradle
fathom juniper
#

the latter sounds just like a regular 'ole forcefield

#

as in - you can go through them but can't carry stuff

twin yarrow
#

but if it doesn't get destroyed.. there can be some new mechanics

#

something between that field and solid light paths

fathom juniper
#

yeah i get it

#

but then again - when a cube touches a forcefield and it fizzles you can always go back and pick up a new one
since you can't really softlock yourself in normal portal 2 puzzles

#

so all you lose there is time

#

i dunno - i'd have to see it before i judge it PES_Think

twin yarrow
#

well, there are always many ways to reload the chamber in case of failure in good maps

fathom juniper
#

yeah

#

you know what i would like to see?
a mapset that changes one, basic rule and then builds it's puzzles around that

#

kinda like reloaded adds that time portal

#

like...
imagine a portal mod where you can't shoot portals - instead they're real, physical things you actually have to pick up and carry

#

you could make some cool puzzles around that - like a room where you can't carry them everywhere with you so you'd have to - let's say - throw one of those portals somewhere high and then make your way up there

#

or a mod where portals are linked together in a way that prevents you from shooting them really far away

wraith cradle
#

Also iiirc more goo types

fathom juniper
#

so like - they have to be 30 meters apart or less

twin yarrow
#

guess, 10 years later it's possible to create moving portals now

fathom juniper
#

so you'd be forced to be really efficient with your puzzle solving skills and all the maps would have to be tight

#

moving portals were possible in vanilla portal 2

#

hell - i've seen some mods for portal 1 that allowed you to do that

twin yarrow
#

well, that was kinda.. arbitrary

#

in vanilla, i mean

fathom juniper
#

oooooh that bit bugged the hell out of me back in 2011 pepeLUL2

#

like - valve tripped hard there and they broke one of the most basic rules they established in portal 1
as in - portals cannot be on moving surfaces

#

and then they broke that and made you shoot portals on moving surfaces in literally one tiny puzzle in portal 2 and then never brought that back again

#

come on, guys PES3_SadCoffee

#

oh - here's another one
how about a portal mod that gives you two pairs of portals
one, normal, human-sized pair of portals
and one pair of small portals

#

and the player can go only through normal portals
but cubes and lasers and such can only go through those small portals

#

you could make some cool puzzles with that

twin yarrow
#

also, how about shrinking and expanding devices/portals?

#

like, stuff going through them would change the size

fathom juniper
#

yeah - that too

#

duke3d called - i'd like it's shrinkers back pepeLUL2

#

but yeah - that's my point
there's so many cool puzzle mechanics you can cram into a portal mod

wraith cradle
#

Cannot believe Endless Legend and ES2 are getting even more content

#

Endless Legend is like my favourite 4x ever

junior crown
#

yeah same, insane they get such amount of post stuff

#

also playing ES2 rn

#

got my first actual legit win

#

as unfallen by peacefully overtaking a lot of systems.

#

#

have you seen the new trailer for nier replicant ver 123087502384758093150-91384509-183450983450982340598345alskdja?

wraith cradle
#

Nope. And I don't want to

polar dragon
#

why not?

wraith cradle
#

Wanna go as blind as possible :p

polar dragon
#

I see :D

#

Haven't played automata

#

but im tempted

#

heard that it was really good

tame veldt
#

Is replicant a sequel to automata?

rancid token
#

I think it's the other way around

#

But don't quote me on that

polar dragon
#

so a se-prequel?

junior crown
#

the midquel

rancid token
#

It's a remake of the original Nier

wraith cradle
#

The og Nier is set literally hundreds of years before

rancid token
#

I can't find a single source that's saying that

steady otter
#

hmm..

"Nier: Automata shares the post-apocalyptic setting of Nier, taking place thousands of years after the game's fourth ending."

rancid token
#

I may be confused on what's being said, if so that's on me

steady otter
#

and by the wiki on nier, replicant is set a bit later then the og

rancid token
#

I thought Albino meant that Replicant takes place hundreds of years before og Nier

steady otter
#

"The game opens with a prologue during the summer of 2049 ||(2053 in Nier Replicant)||"

#

"The game then cuts to 1,312 years later ||(1412 years in Nier Replicant)||"

#

either way the og is earlier?

rancid token
#

Kind of?

#

The problem is I can't tell which version of Nier they mean by OG

opal vapor
#

It is. Nier:A is set much later than Nier:replicant/gestalt

rancid token
#

Like, all I'm seeing is that it refers to either Replicant or Gestalt

opal vapor
#

Replicant 1.22 is the same timeframe as original replicant and gestalt

#

OG Replicant was the Jp version, while the rest of the world got gestalt

#

Also why the protags are different (father Nier vs. Brother Nier)

#

Confusing? Yes, but that's Yoko Taro for ya

polar dragon
#

Yeah, Nier is definitely a Square Enix game given how people debate about the genealogy of the lore lol

wraith cradle
#

It's just me trying to clarify something without spoilering

#

Also Nier is a seuqel to Drakengard's 'joke' ending

opal vapor
#

Did you play the original Nier @wraith cradle ?

wraith cradle
#

A friend lend it to me back in the day

VERY back in the day

#

I only managed to reach the first ending so I'm excited after all this years

opal vapor
#

It's been a long time coming XD

#

So many scenes I wanna see in HD

#

If I can stop listening to Popolas music for just a minute and get to actually playing through the story XD

wraith cradle
#

I wonder if they explained better the infamous fishing segment

#

Finished Ever Forward. Quite cute game with pretty graphics

#

Bit short, tho

polar dragon
#

does anyone know a good and recent side scrolling beat em up game?

acoustic jacinth
#

not really into the genre, but streets of rage 4(?)

rancid token
#

Scott Pilgrim isn't recent but it just got a rerelease

plus it has different questions so if you're getting repeats just switch over to the og

scenic wigeon
#

yeah but I'm also trying to save Disk Space

#

I don't have that much space

#

Tomorrow there is a timed demo of REVIII 👀

#

Only on the Playstations tho

broken smelt
#

Kinda wish the demo wasn't timed or only availible for a short period though

wraith cradle
#

The short period I was expecting

#

As the game is two weeks away

#

And the timed play has been a thing with the last 2 REs

fallen sky
#

curse of the dead gods. does anyone know anything about this game?

dire saffron
#

i got it and it actually had a major update like 9 days ago

#

a dead cells crossover lol

#

but its pretty fun. slower than hades and i think requires more skill but is more grindy

#

i never beat it and im not gonna since it just got boring

#

but if youre looking for a roguelike to sink time into i reccommend it, they do some cool things with systems

#

#

The best one

#

It's quite funny playing Dynasty Warriors and Total War Three Kingdoms back to back

#

And seeing non-entities on one game becoming central characters in the other

#

This is specially notable with Wu

In Dynasty Warriors the spotlight goes: Sun Quan>Sun Ren>Sun Ce>Sun Jian

While in Total War is Sun Ce>Sun Jian>Sun Ren>Sun Quan

you missed an exclamation point

stable kindle
#

not really bc ive been koei long enough i know what it all means, but i would say its pretty offputting for series newcomers trying to figure out what game to pick up bc theres like... dw8 xl complete edition which only means its the base and expansion together, and dw7 xl definitive edition which is base + expansion + all dlc, that kind of thing is really dumb and i hate it

#

also theres dw8 definitive on switch. with all the dlc. the steam version is not that lol.

#

going through some stuff regarding Ikaruga (who remembers that gem)

#

and i remember/find out that gamespot's original review for the game was by Greg of all people

#

the score i would've given a bit higher but honestly the meat of the review reminds me why he was always my favourite gamespot staff member

#

he had insight and a way with words

stable kindle
#

im bad at ikaruga but it's been a long time fav bc i really like the environment and music in the game

tough gorge
#

absolutely phenomenal game in those regards and it's mindblowing that hirochi iuchi not only directed the game

#

but also did the entire OST himself

#

and this was his second time ever doing music for a game too

stable kindle
#

nice

#

i have a 1/144 scale model of ginkei somewhere, gave me a bit of grief with really tiny pieces but really fun to put together

tough gorge
#

omg

#

i've wanted those kotobukiya kits forever now

#

they look so good

stable kindle
#

saw it at a local shop one year and was like ikaruga kits???? i need that in my life

tough gorge
#

oh that is amazing

#

even OOB it's not half bad

#

i heard the ikaruga kit itself is actually harder

#

compared to ginkei

stable kindle
tough gorge
#

i suppose i'm not too surprised

#

they're different ships, even if very similar

#

so some differences could've arisen in build

stable kindle
#

depends on how many absurdly tiny pieces it has, that was the main thing that stalled me with ginkei. the rest snapped together fine

tough gorge
#

that's good to know

#

last thing i'd want to hear about is a kit this extravagant having bad pieces

stable kindle
#

hm i see a place still selling them for 4400 yen, that's not bad for as old as they are. maybe one day i'll pick it up

#

this may be straying convo a bit lmao but anyway ikaruga cool game. i never played the original release but had it on gamecube and picked it up on steam when it dropped there

tough gorge
#

nah it's still on topic enough

#

i forgot when my first time playing the game was though... weirdly enough

#

but i definitely picked up on steam when i could

you can refund but that ain't teh same

mortal siren
#

Refund have time limit

tame veldt
#

i think steam says that to scare ya

#

i swear i refunded a 3 year old game i played for 45 minutes

polar dragon
#

erm the time limit is 2 hours

#

and afaik, 45 minutes < 2 hours.

#

though tbf, im pretty sure if you contact support and don't have like 20 hours in a game, probably you can wiggle your way to a refund

tame veldt
#

i just clicked support on the game page

#

boom refund

polar dragon
#

im fairly sure the big retailers have a rating of their customers, similar to how banks have credit score.

#

you can return most things to amazon if your account is in good standings

#

but if you abuse it your refunds probably won't go through

tame veldt
#

that might be it but i've only refunded like 2 games

mortal siren
stable kindle
#

its highly dependant on the game and what your reasoning for refund is. a lot of times they will actually just auto deny you if you're over the 2hr/2 week limit

#

and if you refund a lot lol, that too.

#

i think ive only refunded like one? game in the 9 years ive had my account

broken smelt
junior crown
#

The timer is way more generous than you may think in my experience at least. The refund mostly depends if you give fair enough explanation for it too.

woven breach
#

wait

#

y'all put explanation?

#

I just put "not fun for me" on the reason bar

cosmic vine
#

Well it depends I mostly don't refund games nowadays

#

I mostly buy games if I find the gameplay video to be fun to play , read the review, check the system requiem, gb size and if the game have mouse support.

#

But I would suggest that you don't use too much refund on steam.

There is a moment I scared myself accidentally :p

mortal siren
#

Like 30 min tho

broken smelt
#

Also the limited time availible thing

#

I would have less issue with the demo being timed (still a scummy move on capcom's part) if the demo were availible for more than a super small amount of time

wraith cradle
#

Aren't demos being available until release a common thing?

stable kindle
#

ive never heard of that tbh

lethal drift
#

I'd have thought so

broken smelt
#

The RE8 demo isn't even availible for that long Albino

#

And nah, not a common thing at all

stable kindle
#

most games that have demos dont arbitrarily remove those demos once the game fully releases thonk thats just bizarre to remove the demo

mortal siren
#

coughs pt coughs

stable kindle
#

most games

#

pt in itself was an entire mess though

mortal siren
#

I never got demo discs so never knew what it felt

broken smelt
#

Pt is also a very differant thing
The game associated with the Teaser ceased development and Konami is spiteful

mortal siren
#

Konami have yet to make something lately

broken smelt
#

They made an incredibly dreadful contra game and the metal gear survive thing no one speaks of

stable kindle
#

because theyre both god awful

mortal siren
#

"no one speaks of" they spoke alright, just not a good thing

stable kindle
#

no one talked about the game once it came out and everyone dunked on it for how bad it was lol

#

and thats for the best. leave it behind, its not worth remembering

mortal siren
#

The contra game got like 10 player all time peak at launch iirc, thats how bad it issquirtdevious

polar dragon

TIL Konami made another Contra

Was so interesting people are remaking it in different ways and looks. Although honestly I wish there were less 1:1 recreations, since like I have seen too many square hallways over and over with bathroom to the side.

I AM SO HYPE FOR THIS RELEASE IN 2021!!!

this will be the Knack 2 of Steam

kajshdfkjawhdf it even has a trailer

#

truly a blessed discovery

wraith cradle
#

I can't believe they spoil the ending in the trailer

scenic wigeon
#

yeah I was gonna read that book screw them for spoiling

tame veldt
#

it's only covering chapter 3 of the manga you can read the others without being spoiled

polar dragon
#

I heard the prequel is kinda dark though

scenic wigeon
#

oh that's good

#

the Jesus Christ arc is more wholesome.

scenic wigeon

kinda like Star Wars in that way

have y'all seen the jesus anime this isn't a joke btw

i can't belive they're making a jesus simulator

It’s just fun?

scenic wigeon
#

now if you'll excuse me I'm gonna go proofread my will

steady otter
#

It’s a fun roguelike

scenic wigeon
polar dragon
steady otter
#

I find the combos I can do fun

scenic wigeon
#

maybe because I don't really like RogueLIKES

steady otter
#

I love getting guppy

polar dragon
#

But then one day, I just wanted to play it, out of nowhere.

#

And then it happened again, and again.

scenic wigeon
#

to me it just feels like I'm throwing myself at a brick wall over and over again until I finally beat it

#

kinda like Oregon Trail

steady otter
#

And it’s fun uncovering new secrets

polar dragon
#

It's hard to describe. I miss Isaac when I don't play it for a while.

#

The gameplay eventually becomes zen.

steady otter
#

It’s not like I play Isaac all the time, but it’s fun when I do

#

It’s relaxing

polar dragon
#

Yup

#

It's funny to describe the game as relaxing but it is, after a certain threshold.

steady otter
#

Once you learn the basic patterns it’s easy

scenic wigeon
#

also might have something to do with the visual style, I admire it but it's just kinda too...
disgusting?
I get that's the point and I respect it for that but I can't dig it

#

:(

steady otter
#

It’s when you suddenly find a new enemy it gets hard hehe

Or if you get trash upgrades..

polar dragon
#

Like I said, I hated it at first, but once I get past a certain threshold, it becomes a good game to return to.

steady otter
#

Like exploding brain

dire condor
#

When i wanna relax i just play some gungeon

scenic wigeon
#

okay

#

see, I don't really wanna get through to that threshold if the game doesn't hook me

steady otter
polar dragon
steady otter
#

It’s just pixels to me

scenic wigeon
#

I dunno I've never thought about it and it might be because I'm looking for things to hate here

steady otter
#

I love the art style, but the “blood & gore” just registers as red pixels

scenic wigeon
#

so just take that one with a grain of salt it might be my monkey brain acting up again

polar dragon
steady otter
#

I also love the music in Isaac

#

The ambient noise

#

It grows on you

polar dragon
#

question is, do you take blind items?

steady otter
#

Don’t get me wrong - I hated Isaac when I first saw it cuz the only thing I noticed was all the poop enemies & such (classmates were playing) & it was just not for me

#

But then I folded & tried it & fell in love lol

steady otter

#

brave dude

How do you think I get the stupid exploding brains!?!

real harbor
#

anyone played rogue legacy 2? does that get better?

scenic wigeon
#

also
I think Gungeon would be better if there was some kind of little aiming thing to help you out
kinda like how Hades has a little line to let you know where your Cast will shoot
half the time it feels like I'm not hitting the guys at all 'cause I suck at aiming
although swapping to M&K mitigates this issue

real harbor

Gungeon is a more difficult roguelike then Isaac >.>

It’s somewhat fun tho

scenic wigeon
#

yeah the highlight of Gungeon is undoubtedly the humor

polar dragon
#

you don't get as op in gungeon as often as you do in isaac

steady otter

I just have to get used to guns more - not a fan XD

If I get over that I’ll prolly enjoy gungeon more

kush and teo are just reoccuring thorns in my side at this point, the new apex fights are just deviants but named after something different, and layered gear is great but capcom where my layered weapons

The Village demo seemed weird pacing wise

Either you play a 'fake' scenario or you play the very very end of the plot on the village.

Although seems weird given Ethan dialogue makes it seem he just arrived and he hasn't fought Walter White yet

sleek quiver
#

Is it just me or crafting on RPGs, kinda sucks?

#

It’s like just a pointless layer that if you remove, wouldn’t change much of the game

junior crown
#

Mostly yeah they can be a hindrance rather than well put system.

sleek quiver
#

This will probably sound like a rant but, really, the resource gathering is really proving to be quite cumbersome tbh. Making thing is fine, but gathering the resources isn’t though

tall hornet
#

some crafting systems are good, but most of them are just there because a producer somewhere insisted that the devs should add one because every other game does

sleek quiver
#

Especially when these resources are spread across like 10-20min from eachother

sleek quiver
tall hornet
#

/shrug

#

something like that

sleek quiver
#

I get Minecraft though, Minecraft is about individuality and creativity, crafting is basically a no-brainer I guess. Never played Minecraft myself but YouTube is a thing

junior crown
#

could be but mostly why they are there is to pad out some time between the other gameplay parts.

sleek quiver
#

I understand that, it’s to prevent monotonous gameplay experience, I get that. But then, when you want to craft stuffs, it’s a monotonous experience off of itself

#

You run around between places, gather some materials, then go to a forge

junior crown
#

Yeah nah the crafting systems can be more or so out of place in how they integrate into gameplay.

sleek quiver
#

What I don’t like about how some games do it is that it’s more running than doing things

junior crown
#

I think one of the games that has such great sin is Dragon Age Inquisition. There are a lot of side stuff to do, but they are mostly related for you to find resources in specific places, which is very tedious action.

sleek quiver
#

Doesn’t the game has somewhat of a cult following? Like, heard it was good

junior crown
#

Dragon Age Series is a game series indeed. It's strange honestly thinking about it. It had 3 entries so far and they are all different each time how they go about the combat system or the speech in the dialogue or level design. I say Dragon Age: Origins is quite great, first entry in the series, it can be quite the long journey but the way it starts, how story goes and how the whole systems are managed it's pretty neat. Dragon Age 2. This one is like uh well it got interesting ideas and stories to tell, but it's copy pasted environment of about 6 locations and the way they changed how dialogue is handled and well how the stuff is presented may put off people, but it's alright, just the lowest. Dragon Age Inquisition is a game for sure too, it has open world sort of thing going on, which then it suffers from: the whole raftign system, gathering, side objectives that don't matter much except levelling up and upgrading stuff, doesn't go much into stuff except side missions Like the story is interesting and the environment looks neat, so is the combat neat, but it is a slog to play.

#

So in short you must be really into the series to even imagine trying to slog through stuff. It's strange how the series has three entries yet it doesn't really have a set vision in mind? Like the real time tactical combat presents in each title, but even that is like never the same.

wraith cradle
#

You gotta hand it to BioWare.

You gotta have some self confidence to call the first game of your new IP 'Origins'

#

The first time I heard about the franchise I assumed that was the prequel and Dragon Age 1 was another game

junior crown
#

Yeah they quite had it. Though they sure dropped the ball on quality afterwards in specific aspects and then the whole other stuff. I am honestly unsure how I still should feel about Dragon Age 4

#

Like is there possible hope it will be good or just to expect things be the more sad way and it being meh or worse?

wraith cradle
#

I wish Solas looked different.

As I said once before I can't take seriously a main villain who looks like a lightbulb.

junior crown
#

The rtgameEgg tries to be menacing. But yeah I think what also adds to it is the fact how Solas is like one of the rare types of elves that are bald? like I think there aren't many bald elves in the settings.

#

quick, someone remind me how long stadia has been out

#

this is like... bare minimum oh my god

tame veldt
#

there wasn't a search bar before

#

it was just "hope it's on your recommended"

stable kindle
#

yes thats the part worth ridiculing

#

the fact stadia has been out for.. over a year? and they're only just adding a search bar is just. laughable.

#

that's something that should have been in their storefront from the beginning

mortal siren
#

Search bar is like, fundamental

stable kindle
#

what really gets me is people that want steam to have competition but then steam's "competition" is like. you know. these storefronts lacking absolutely basic features one would expect from an online storefront, and then people go and applaud them later on for finally adding the bare minimum

#

its just sad

mortal siren
#

I dont think stadias meant to be a competitor for steam, its more like they hoping to thrive as the go-to platform for cloud gaming (which already exists and most of them is usable with steam anyways) and failing miserably

stable kindle
#

its not, no, but point still stands about the bare minimum

#

we've had this talk countless times about epic and beaten the horse well into the ground but yet it still boggles me when someone launches some new sort of gaming storefront and its just. incomplete in even the most basic features

#

steam has had over 15 years to get to where it is, for better or for worse (because there have certainly been some.. atrocious decisions with the store along the way lol) but online storefronts opening up in the past years dont have that excuse.

#

there's just no reason for anyone selling games in any format to be lacking such basic things like a cart or a search bar

#

theres zero excuse for it

dire condor
#

I think I agree on principle, but the number of times I've needed to use a cart when buying a game has been very few and far between, if ever.

#

But I don't go sales binging, either.

stable kindle
#

i tend to use it more often when theres a large sale, sometimes i'll hold onto things in cart if i'm still deciding on a purchase. just because you personally dont utilize it much doesnt mean its not a basic function to have

dire condor
#

I did say I agreed on principle.

stable kindle
#

you (general)

#

i should say

dire condor
#

My experience talking to other people agrees that it's largely only useful in specific circumstances like a sale.

#

Again, anecdotal.

stable kindle
#

even so, the sales come around and its not there so what good is it lol

#

i sidetracked quite a bit into a general rant though, im still just. baffled stadia is only just now getting a search bar, ultimately

#

and of course people are in their mentions praising the move and its just like. sure i guess? but why are we praising them for the bare minimum, have more respect for yourself as a consumer

dire condor
#

I thought that "chef kiss" could have been sarcastic, but that's only because I'm thinking along the same lines as you.

Stadia being as botched as it is, not really surprised by this is the slightest

oh yeah games are rolling out pride stuff soonish, on that note lol

#

which i only know about bc of loltwt cracking down on the ridiculous citrine and whatever other colour icons were coming out, and comparing smite and valorant having actual pride flags/icons

broken smelt
#

Smite and valorant doing something neat by having actual pride flags, nice :3

#

Seems like lolwt is scared of colours squirtdevious

polar dragon
#

I play Sea of Thieves with a friend. I flew the pride flag

#

he got upset lmao

stable kindle
#

nah it was legitimate criticism on how riot was refusing to label anything directly as pride

broken smelt
#

Ahh so riot being bad... again

stable kindle
#

obsidian for nb, rose quartz for trans and so on, i dont remember all the colours

#

but its not the first year theyve done it

polar dragon

sad gray for acccceeeeeeeeeeeeee

#

I wonder if riot will explicitly add LBGTQIA+ characters in game at some point ever

stable kindle
#

wouldnt hold my breath on it since tencent has a majority share of the company as far as i recall lol

#

though leona and diana is the closest theyve come, and not just with this icon

#

it was hinted with the battle queens event some months back as well

#

so who knows

#

maybe one day they'll surprise us ¯_(ツ)_/¯

broken smelt
#

Ahh so nothing explicit, got it.
yeah not holding my breath

stable kindle
#

its not really something you can expect from any major player in the industry, and what little we get we have to fight tooth and nail for as it is pensiveclown

broken smelt
#

It's unfortunately true, doesn't make me any less saddened by it though

stable kindle
#

honks my own clown nose

broken smelt
#

But thankfully there is more representation happening even if it's mostly in the indie space

stable kindle
#

indies have always been a way to see content we could never have in the triple a space lol bless

#

imagine being one of those people that only plays major game releases and looks down on indies 🤧

broken smelt
#

There's some sprinkling of good rep in triple A games
Borderlands 3 for example

#

you would think that but ive seen these people often enough lol

#

they were out in droves during game awards and some other fairly big award periods

steady otter
#

just another part of the internet salt supply

broken smelt
#

Yeah the crowd of "my favourite big triple A game didn't win x award, y indie game didn't deserve it (without knowing anything about said indie)"

steady otter
#

ah, that's the uncensored version

polar dragon
#

oh crap lmao]

looking at the one in the bottom right
most discussed =/= good

here is the censored version

these peeps over here complaining about Hades getting all the awards
but when the GotYs were livestreamed everyone was complaining about TLoU Pt2 getting all the awards

steady otter
stable kindle
#

these people act like big babies their precious industry darling didnt win all the awards ever

scenic wigeon
#

even though it did in the GotYs

steady otter
#

that's one of the first things you learn about awards or stuff related to voting - people love complaining about whoever wins

doesn't matter who or what - if they win, they must be complained about

polar dragon
#

also the irony of accusing an indie gaming rigging an award over a AAA game lmao

polar dragon
steady otter
#

ye, that reminds me of when BTS was accused of sajaegi back when they won their first awards..

their company was just about broke so how on earth were they supposed to have the funds to do chart manipulation??

sajaegi is like company buying albums to manipulate sales charts & such

why would you accuse an indie dev/company of essentially doing that to an awards show?

#

some people confuse me

polar dragon
#

I confuse myself

steady otter
#

it's so similar despite it being very different genres

#

it just makes you want to

broken smelt
#

People get super defensive over awards for reasons i will never understand
It's not like the award will change your mind on if you like the game or anything

stable kindle
#

all it comes down to is wanting to be reaffirmed that their opinion is the "correct" one, so their fav game not winning is inherently an attack to them (regardless of the fact that it actually is not). its just silly, if you love x game so much then go play it

broken smelt
#

I was half expecting a "if you love x game so much then go and marry it" 😂

stable kindle
#

the way some of these people act youd think they are in a committed relationship with a game lol

scenic wigeon
#

that would be the best response to these people though

Fight'N Rage is a pretty fun beat em up

This is my first time ever trying the genre and I enjoyed it

mortal siren
#

You havent played SoR4?

polar dragon
#

not yet, I wanted something easy and cheap because I have no idea how to play fighting games

#

f'nr made me want to invest in a good arcade stick box though

#

maybe one day when im rich financially stable.

Street of rage is pretty easy dw, and they even give assists options if u lose

Copypasting from reddit

-Tonsof bugs including missing or placeholder GFX for some of the new features including some new missions or the sikhism religion panel,

-Extremely poorly designed features, featuring 'concentrate development' that allows you to get 7k+ development in your capital easily(50 used to be kind of the maximum you'd ever go for)

-They didn't deliver on the promises they made after the poor launch of Emperor, the previous DLC, including how they were going to fix the AI and a ton of other bugs.. of which they did nothing

-Horrible balance decisions, featuring new monuments that grant you +15% admin efficiency, or one that gives you +10% discipline

-They released it knowing it was unfinished, the gamefiles are even filled with TODOs on unfinished things

oof. paradox usually has a good track record, too

#

though they sell dlcs, not games, looking at you ck, eu, and stellaris

wraith cradle
#

In fact EU4 and Imperator have much worse track record that Stellaris and CK

polar dragon
#

didn't know that, I only played stellaris

once in gu i fought white fatalis and it proceeded to roar 3 times in a row straight, and my only thought was "oh it's doing a khezu"

Question: would any of you say early Paper Marios are overrated

dire condor
#

are we gonna ignore the fact that doom eternal basically ripped off halo infinite naming scheme and halo and masterchief will always be better than doomslayer guy and doometernal

people focus too much on Thousand Year Door, but otherwise nah, they are pretty good, but also people have to let go of other games not being the same as earlier entries.

#

They are still pretty neat games imo

The original paper Mario had the advantage of having an art style that has aged like fine wine

The writing is generally what people say has remained strong across the whole series, even into the entries where the gameplay felt kind of lacking

Village looks fantastic and I'm glad they're pulling stuff from 4

All indicates the structure won't be as straightforward tho. Like Ethan will go and come from the castle and the Village

We'll see if they break the Resident Evil pattern, I'd be surprised but glad
