[rotund horizon]

[neon vale]

With thcrap

They dont have any bosnian translation and the croat translation is incomplete (the the serbian translation barely exists)

[rotund horizon]

idk how to code,maybe noelbless could help with that

I translate the texts from English to Bosnian and he puts the translation

[neon vale]

The site does it for you i think (unless i read wrong)

[rotund horizon]

I could try

translate all the bullethell th games

[neon vale]

I should learn to code to make one of those meme packs

[pseudo moat]

ive done the incident, its just the doom 2 first episode? lol

[rotund horizon]

EoSD but in in Doom.If Its just the Doom 2 episode 1 then something not right

[pseudo moat]

i mean its got three touhou levels and a bossrush mode that work

just wondering if the incident is always you teleporting to somewhere via the space ppl in doom, the first is just all normal doom enemies, rest worked fine

[rotund horizon]

Of,that's just the opening

Once you get teleported to a forrest,you've entered Gensokyo

[pseudo moat]

[viscid dust]

clear sky broken shit no worky

[rotund horizon]

Ep 1 of the mod is just EoSD but in Doom,ep2 and onwards is when the mod becomes unique

Not just by the story but also in gameplay too

[neon vale]

DAMN

shame its so much

i am not shilling out that much for a single figure no matter how cool it looks

[pseudo moat]

lol they get much much worse, i cant believe what friends have spent

[neon vale]

there are some figures that are literally 400 bucks

[umbral niche]

Tell that to wh40k people

[neon vale]

this one is one of the cheaper good looking ones

[neon vale]

to be fair you can actually play a game with those

[umbral niche]

True

[pseudo moat]

KEK that gets ridiculous, i used to play mtg at a place and played warhammer a few times on their terrain tables, but id never have the motivation to buy an army for that and then have to paint them lmfao

[umbral niche]

I wouldn't have the patience

[pseudo moat]

i barely did

[neon vale]

damn 40k is cheaper than i thought

[umbral niche]

40k fans are some of the most patient yet energetic people

[pseudo moat]

its one of those things like dnd where i had to get talked into it, and bribed basically with an obscene character

[neon vale]

still crazy expensive but cheaper

[umbral niche]

But en mass

[neon vale]

i just dont like minis, if im gonna paint a model i want it to be a decent size

[pseudo moat]

yeah an army is like 300+

[neon vale]

yeah if you're budgeting

[pseudo moat]

and you have to do all the work, and yup i was being cheap lol

[neon vale]

a full army with more expensive units is like 500+

[umbral niche]

300+ figures

[pseudo moat]

sometimes you can buy armies off ppl that are modern enough and not too bad

the big expensive figures i dont think are used to most play?

[pseudo moat]

i used to like doing gunpla

one time in true freedom fashion i got so flipping high playing stalker 2 when i got hit with psy radiation i genuinely thought the monolith was calling for me

[umbral niche]

Of course

genuinely the scariest thing ever when the whispering started i was tweaking

[umbral niche]

I was drunk while playing bioshock once
Never again

[nova zinc]

i am never playing stalker 2 high again

[grim stone]

It’s the only way to play stalker though

[nova zinc]

games so good tho im glad i played the og trilogy like years before, but when 2 first got delayed it hurt me so bad

[umbral niche]

I've been waiting since 2019
I'll continue to wait until 2025 for a game

Last gears game was 2019

I'm using the 416 till I can find the G36 drum

i can listen to most genres but the ones i actively seek out are any kind of gimmick music or any historical/folk music

I usually just use the M701 super with the master key under it and the deadeye pistol

Just felt like a commie today

I would use that if I was more restricted on space
But I can carry 140 pounds of shit
So I like to ball out

I would use the LMG but I can never find 7.62x39

[pseudo moat]

bro isnt popular online, shit - i dont like voice chatting often, otherwise id potentially be banned lots of places too lol but i only talk with friends usually and not randos these days

[twin cairn]

i haven't really used voice since the og MW2 days tbh

[pseudo moat]

360 era we were all a menace tho

[umbral niche]

People don't like me when I'm able to say what I want
Isn't that right based?

[twin cairn]

fr lol

we were CRAZY

shit would get you cancelled nowadays lol

[pseudo moat]

yeah that is based, i think ppl should be allowed to say what they want and its on the sensitive people in a lot of cases xD

[twin cairn]

well theres places for that tbh

[umbral niche]

I disagree
Anywhere is a place for speech

[twin cairn]

speech but not hate

[umbral niche]

Potato, tomato

[pseudo moat]

yes ppl still paly 360 games on one of the xboxs that are newer and me and friends were hacking in mw2 blops 2 and people would still in 2021 send huge hate mail in those

[pseudo moat]

i mean being hate is just that, no need to be hateful typically

[twin cairn]

maybe its because im in early 30s but engaging in hate speech and toxicity seems pretty immature and childish now

[pseudo moat]

it takes a lot of energy to be outwardly mean to some rando on the internet lmao

[twin cairn]

this aswell

[pseudo moat]

oh well entirely, im 33

[twin cairn]

aye im 32

[umbral niche]

Maybe
Maybe not
I just think that if people can get away with hating me for being "normal" which happens
I should be able to say what I want

[twin cairn]

i feel like a dinosaur thinking back to 360 mic days

[pseudo moat]

id imagine a lot of us are around 30s, a ton of the people i talk to have pllayed the og trilogy and those were super niche in their time

i thought i was gonna be playing gamma another decade, im in awe s2 finally exists tho lol

i thought it was gonna get pushed back another year

[twin cairn]

i PRAY tes 6 comes soon i want that game to be good but kinda nervous

[pseudo moat]

get that shit looked at sooner than later before it progresses, youre also old enough to be on parents insurance still too, so get that shit rolling if you got it

[twin cairn]

fr take care of yourself in your 20s trust me

i wish i did

[pseudo moat]

think that or gta 6 will flop? i dont see both of them succeeding lol but will accept one might still scrounge by

[pseudo moat]

yup i did lots of stupid shit that rekt my brittle bones - also partied lots lol

[twin cairn]

GTA 6 will succeed BUT if we are going by starfield i feel tes6 is cooked

[twin cairn]

same

[umbral niche]

Parties are not my thing

[pseudo moat]

that is kinda how im going by it, i see that gta came out awhile ago and all we got from them in that franchise in over a decade is notta - meanwhile bethesda has put out a game a few years ago thats derpy at best

[twin cairn]

i'm much more chilled these days id rather hit up nature stuff

[umbral niche]

Being a damn idiot and one handing a sawn off 12g
Is my thing

[pseudo moat]

fookin based, its not fun really and i wish i spent more time doing other stuff

[twin cairn]

i PRAY starfield is a wake up call cuz man they did NOT cook at all with that game they didn't even turn the oven on lol

[pseudo moat]

well we did get that gta 6 pre alpha leak

[twin cairn]

was it good? never actually looked at it

[pseudo moat]

like uhh maybe 4-5 years ago? but it was supppppeeerrr broken

[pseudo moat]

i bet their are vids of it still lemme c

[umbral niche]

I went to like 3 parties total
The first 2 were kinda boring
And what happened at the 3rd is why I don't party anymore

[twin cairn]

parties can be very dangerous honestly

i dont like being around so many drunk and high people

[warped maple]

@hardy dome

[umbral niche]

True
Then again
Mf that are high as a kite are funny as hell

[pseudo moat]

https://youtu.be/mXkj71mq4Jg?si=YRiGlNpuD5ZE8_K7 its very early

[twin cairn]

fr atleast they are chill but bunch of people doing coke and being all sketchy near you got you like on guard haha

[twin cairn]

thank you gonna watch now

[umbral niche]

I'm not talking hard drugs
Just weed and shit

But I'd rather get drunk instead

[pseudo moat]

dude half my friends just liked access to the people that partied, and theyd setup a laptop or tv and console and just run games in a corner with randos all night, their cool for socializing depending on who your friends are. half my friends were felons and the other half were IT nerds lol

[twin cairn]

fr weeds fine imo

man i miss boys nights we used to play alot of mario kart

[umbral niche]

Damn, sounds chill af

[pseudo moat]

yup thats all i do, might drink on holidays but thats it

[hardy dome]

you should really check the map but also avoid the deep water

[umbral niche]

All 3 of the parties I went to were rowdy af

[warped maple]

Dog its everywhere!

[twin cairn]

i'm honestly an old man now lol i got to bed around 9-10pm unless i have a reason to be up

[pseudo moat]

its early, but it got pegged for being awful, and it like has test patterns in some areas still lmfao

[warped maple]

Id go back but my last save is so far back that I would have to get into their again plus lose a bunch of my loot

[pseudo moat]

i have insomnia and also cant work cuz need hip, so I have been getting my ass beat with not needing to sleep lol

[umbral niche]

Weak
I'll be staying up till 4 till I die
Which likely is soon

[hardy dome]

yeah its the swamps dude you have to go through the less thick areas

[twin cairn]

my job is demanding i cant be doing stuff like that lol

[pseudo moat]

i mean your in texas, if its somewhere safe and remote and you got some trusted friends around - could be good, if you dont party you can also save your friends lives driving their drunk asses home lol

[twin cairn]

oh man haha i hope you can overcome that insomina

[warped maple]

I wanted to try and cheese it it seems the zone cheesed me

[hardy dome]

going through the water is the worse idea becasue some spots are actually TOO DEEP and you will die lol

[umbral niche]

After my 3rd party I was done
First 2 were okay
The 3rd.....not again

[pseudo moat]

they give my ass ambien and xanax and i only take it when i work lol its fun but I need to not roast my brain anymore so its only for really bad days or when im gainfully employed.

[warped maple]

Yeah my game saved as I died in the deep water so I keep trying to run out of the water and get away from the mutant and even if I do there is like no shelter and I die to the emission

[pseudo moat]

parties growing up back in detroit were always dope af, often sketchy tho lol

[pseudo moat]

make many saves!

[warped maple]

Oh god…

[pseudo moat]

they dont take up much space, just casually make a new one always - delete them later, the folder is accessible

[umbral niche]

I quit after my 3rd because
Let's say this
I didn't see the adams apple

[hardy dome]

you need to look at the map, the emission starts once you get so close to the objective and that is also when the chimeria comes in

once you figure out the direction you can zig zag around and get to the shelter at the mission end point

[pseudo moat]

oh right, I mean just take the L and dont let it ruin your fun time imo. Just pay more attention next time lol dw i dont think anyone with an adams apple is gonna sweep you off your feet, you said you dont drink right?

[umbral niche]

I drink..... sometimes
I just really don't want that kind of encounter again

[pseudo moat]

I mean fair enough

[pseudo moat]

yes my friend read it about somewhere and just remoted in and ran the command to make both the folders owned by me and not read only, but i updated and then couldnt save, and my settings were gone

[umbral niche]

If there is enemies in the vicinity you can't save
Also on console your limited by how many hard saves you can make

[pseudo moat]

damn thats a bummer, yall got space, those joints are like 1mb each lol

do u got cloud saves

[warped maple]

No…

[umbral niche]

I know
I have a 3tb Internal SD
And a 5tb external hard drive
I should have 0 problems with storage

[warped maple]

Man the old games didn’t do this to me

[pseudo moat]

maybe enable those if not and they exist - i havent had an xbox since i got launch xbox one and dead rising 3 ran at 15 fps - the newer ones are dope the last gen pro one and the series x are straight

[pseudo moat]

they used to do other stuff tho - hardlocking the game on the screen froze so i couldnt alt tab and blocking ctrl alt dlt

the memory leaks that were deff way worse, thankfully anomally and gamma fixed it all in time but prior it was such hell

[warped maple]

Ok fair but at least I didn’t get stun locked into losing my entire game or at the very least five hours of progress

[pseudo moat]

oh i mean i save like an insane person, also didnt know console had save limits etc

[umbral niche]

Angry FoNV sounds

[twin cairn]

i save so much its crazy

[warped maple]

God real

[pseudo moat]

obsidians that and alpha protocol are so goated

[twin cairn]

i've played to much modded tes games i NEED to save every few min

[pseudo moat]

you gotta, what if i you wanna time travel or try something out etc

[warped maple]

Saving would be great if it actually let me

[pseudo moat]

oh shit thats right your the dude who knows about nolvus and openmw

I'm joking but I gotta go deal with a certain person

[pseudo moat]

[twin cairn]

[pseudo moat]

let alone cared enough to shape skyrim like playdough with thousands of mods, i mean somehow just not in my circles ig lol im big into the souls games

[twin cairn]

lorerim was actually my first entry into pc skyrim modding

[pseudo moat]

they tend to hate more casual open world games for example, another community im active in is pokemon lol just likely not much overlap, then also a lot of ppl our age preffer oblivion

[twin cairn]

i wanna try nolvus once V6 is out and how are the souls games ?

[pseudo moat]

or morrowind, all my friends hate skyrim but i love it modded up right its great

they remade gold and silver and ruby and sapphire, t(those are gens 2 and 3) and then you got two gens on ds and two on 3ds, the above listed are all the best ones

were on generation 9, you havent played in 6 gens and they remade all the ones you did play gg lol swoop a 3ds and mod it if you care to indulge

[twin cairn]

i'll have to pick one up i kinda miss playing nintendo games

i wanna try the remakes of ocarina of time and majoras mask

i'd kill for a 3D remake of oracle of seasons and ages

maybe even links awakening

[pseudo moat]

https://restoration.zora.re/ oot is friging insane and mm was bad but it got fixed with link

[pseudo moat]

theirs a direct sequel to links awakening on 3ds lol

get a new 3ds console, and i can help you mod it, theirs an idiot proof website

[twin cairn]

hell yeah will do i like the sounds of this

[pseudo moat]

will wanna get the new 3ds console and not any of the other models, the 3d is bad or not there

their is an eyetrackign camera on the new 3ds and new 3ds xl consoles, that makes the 3d actually work and not give migraines

128gb sd card will fit anything you could ever want, its one of my favorite consoles of all time

also new 3ds consoles have a second joystick

[rotund horizon]

happy birthday Penguan

[twin cairn]

Clipped this for saving later i'll shop around and see what i can find and damn im suprised they didnt come with two

[neon vale]

bosnian stare

[pseudo moat]

(and are 30% faster and have their own games only for it) also yes, "NEW 3DS" is the worst name ever

like bro really guys?

[twin cairn]

seems like such a lazy name

[pseudo moat]

and it has games that only it plays, and people thought wii u was vague, yes that is the official actual name

[twin cairn]

id have called it super 3DS or even ultra

[pseudo moat]

this the bundle i got tho lol

i got an xl too but its giant and it isnt high resolution, so it stretching the lowish res images pissed me off lol

[twin cairn]

it would piss me off aswell lol

why wouldnt they bump up the res if you're giving a big screen

[pseudo moat]

yeah it is an inch bigger but it just makes everything sorta like blurry, it was a nintendo console, and it was the year before the switch was out, was a lazy middle step but their insane modded cuz of all they do

[twin cairn]

are switches worth it ? i've been out of the nintendo ecosystem since the wii

[pseudo moat]

also no famicom button colors or faceplates

the top of the non xl takes facepaltes

[twin cairn]

those all red buttons

[twin cairn]

left goes hard as hell

[pseudo moat]

oh any size and shape

imma order this one

this ones also cool and clear

when i imported mine this came on it lol its silly

i like this one alot good choice

[twin cairn]

haha my sister is into that silly style

shes got alot of nintendo stuff like that

[pseudo moat]

their like 200 bucks to import, but china ❤️ they are cloning all of them on aliexpress

[pseudo moat]

its cute but not so much for me overall lol they even got one that makes the top a useless alarm clock calender thing

this one also sells for hundreds

these too

in japan ONLY they released like 50ish different ones, we barely even got the non xl console, i had to import mine from japan and then do a region swap to usa cuz i dont read kanji lol

[twin cairn]

holy man you lucked out haha

[pseudo moat]

we got a plain whiteo ne, and two mario ones - also japan got tons, were just impractical americans and like the big ones

its 300 for one of mine here or like 200-250 in japan, and deals can be found

[twin cairn]

you deff got me curious now

[pseudo moat]

local you can find crazy steals tho

my friend got a new 3ds xl for 70 bucks off fb marketplace a few weeks ago

[twin cairn]

damn thats a fantastic deal jan ill have some extra cash so ill shop around and see what i can find marketplace seems like the move

[pseudo moat]

that and craigslsit are where id peep fasho

etsy might even have deals on pre modded ones too lol

but taht parts super easy, ive had people who didnt have a pc and had to borrow one be able to do it

itll also do all the snes and gb and gba games too np

[twin cairn]

hell yeah haha you got me pumped ill reach out when its time and fr? id love to have all those aswell snes games went hard esp LTTP haha but i gotta call it a night now it was awesome chatting 🫵

[valid crystal]

The OG was goated

[pseudo moat]

the og 3ds was awful had baby screens, the sticks broke, the 3d gave people migraines, and it was squared off and uncomfortable lolwut

new 3ds is the best iteration ds/3ds factually, even comes with ips screens lol

[graceful cedar]

I mean I remember being like 8yrs old and going crosseyed playing on my 3DS xD

[pseudo moat]

ig launch 3ds still beat this huge af brick of a console, look at those bad viewing angles on the screens

[valid crystal]

I never had those problems with either of mine

[pseudo moat]

you had to agree to not use it under iirc 11 years old in the tos to use it LOL so many kids got rekt, the later models have cameras that track your eyes like vr headsets do - so the 3d actually works fine

[pseudo moat]

oh this isnt even a me thing, thats universally recieved, hence them remaking it 4x due to complaints xD

[graceful cedar]

I also "had to" be 13 to make a facebook account....when I was 10 lmao

[pseudo moat]

Yeah im just old so was always within those ages just barely, had to be 13 for myspace lol

what in the based accessory

[graceful cedar]

I see 0 actual usefulness from that xD, like what game can u play with 1 hand?

[pseudo moat]

ive owned all the iterations of ds, the launch model was peak in its time, i remember playing super mario 64 ds on it xmas like 2004 lol also its entirely just some dumb thing they made back then, its not useful lol

https://www.reddit.com/r/ItemShop/comments/1g507nt/weapon_ds_ex_nintendos_ultimate_weapon/#lightbox sauce lol

looking closer he I think machined that thing, like dude made the most useless accessory ever

[prisma escarp]

I just ate bologna and a cheese slice between saltine crackers as a sandwich. And it was delicious, but my dignity is gone

[granite rain]

but your tummy is full

[granite rain]

launch model was peak but DS Lite holds a special place in my heart

[pseudo moat]

yeee i got a white ds lite when those launched with a copy of new super mario bros, that summer weekend was so freaking fun!

[pseudo moat]

spicey pickled bologna on crackers with cheese goes so hard, might be midnight snack shiiiiit

Anyone playing PoE2? This game is dope. I never palyed the first one, tried but it was WAY too much for me. As in confusing coming from Diablo. This one though plays WAY more like Diablo2, but more better.

[graceful cedar]

So are these like for planned DLC or something?

[fallen elm]

Have you beaten the game

[graceful cedar]

I'm at the mission "Down below" which I think is the second or third last mission

[fallen elm]

Just keep playing.

[grim stone]

One of them is ||Generators map, the other is the CNPP and the one at the bottom is called Iron Forest, which is probably some DLC related stuff.||

[fallen elm]

HWINFO has a problem with AM5 platform. Example.

All the mins on cores are 0c

[graceful cedar]

weird, on a side note, in HWMonitor, should "Reliable Voltage Limit" always be at 1?

[fallen elm]

In ragards to? I mean like my CPU atm is sitting at 1 volt.

[graceful cedar]

Like I think it's just a 0 or 1 value, it's under Performance

[fallen elm]

I have all that stuff turned off lol. If you're ever concnered reddit peeps generally have good info. From a quick google LTT forums say it's the BIOS hiting the voltage limit. Which is fine. It's supposed to do that.

[graceful cedar]

For the GPU?

[fallen elm]

Same thing I reckon.

You don't want to go over 1 volt by a whole lot if at all if you were gonna OC something.

Vlad Pysarenko.

[thorn cove]

is there any pic of to reference on model?

like on Faust

[idle wadi]

I'm recording some footage rn, so give me a minute

@thorn cove

Not the best photo, but you can just google the actor

[thorn cove]

oki

thanks

[lament zealot]

OMG pookie bear

[idle wadi]

I informed myself on the cast, so you can ask if anything about actors

It's like.. my favourite part of the game Cutscenes, Characters, story..

[thorn cove]

You should make whole list on this bruh

[idle wadi]

It is planned

[thorn cove]

I laff at Dalin's face model, bro is the IRL bootleg Zelensky

[idle wadi]

Some characters have even three actors.

[lament zealot]

Mr. Ward is basically Jeff Bezos

[idle wadi]

Fun fact, his face model (Leonid Zakharenko) actually played The Stranger (who you know now who is) in E3 ru dub.

[lament zealot]

NPC in the mid-late game be like: “hey so we sent a couple of rookie stalkers…”

The rookie stalkers in question:

https://tenor.com/view/stalker-stalker-clear-sky-clear-sky-monolith-monolith-exo-gif-13594799489985857333

like why are they ALL in exos man 💀, this is getting ridiculous

[thorn cove]

Strelok's new face kinda looks like Vladimir Makarov some reason, are they tried to use Roman as model (Makarov's VA and face model)

is there any info about this

[idle wadi]

I dislike the fact their equipment gets better as you progress the story. Not as you venture into more dangerous areas of the Zone. bruh.

[lament zealot]

That’s the case in CoP as well

[idle wadi]

His face is modeled after the same actor as before.

[lament zealot]

Pretty sure enemies have better equipment in “higher tier” areas

[idle wadi]

Why, GSC, why

[thorn cove]

I dunno, or my eyes is lying to me

[idle wadi]

Enemies get better equipment as you progress the story.

[lament zealot]

It’s just that it’s much easier to notice the flat boost in gear after progression

[lament zealot]

I think that it’s both ngl

[idle wadi]

You will start seeing a lot of Exos in all places, even Zalissya lol

[lament zealot]

At least in Stalker 2 anyways

[thorn cove]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[idle wadi]

It is, but in my opinion this shouldn't be the case. It makes no sense imo, but it is fine how it is I guess

[lament zealot]

Stalker 2 has the same problem of “shotgun is the best gun ever”

Sure you COULD use an RPK and burn through ammo OR you could use 1 shotgun blast to the face to put down pretty much any human enemy in 1 shot

Make sure u have impact resist artifacts tho, or else they might cheese you

[idle wadi]

Eh.. it isn't

[lament zealot]

As for heavy mutants, just do the CoP strategy of switching to slugs

At least that’s what I do, anyways

[idle wadi]

Dnipro is best weapon for any scenario. It is kinda too op imo lol

[lament zealot]

Eh, it’s not bad but I haven’t used it much. Not a fan that I need to shoot exo dudes in the face like 5 times

I need to find a mechanic that can upgrade “tier 3” weapons

need my saiga to do even more damage

[idle wadi]

Get higer Pen weapons

R701 can one shot enemies with Exosuits in the head. Dnipro can 2-3 shot the.

I am actually shocked by that ngl

In a game set in an irradiated wasteland filled with anomalies, mutants, and boneheads ready to turn you into gore, it's the bad words they're concerned about

resident evil 4 or smth Idk I never played the games

[simple prairie]

overall im also really worryed that if ubisoft falls, other gaming studios will become effected like that crash in the 1980s before my time

[pearl fractal]

[viral sandal]

I was going to tell you before that, sadly, EA Games is a superior place in the game industry
All those years milking gambling addicts in FIFA and other sports games made them incredibly rich.
Also, Tencent is bad, I also agree.
I'm not afraid of other game companies falling. Ubisoft falling is their own fault. It won't translate to other companies

[wispy knot]

seal vid i found on youtube

[torn fable]

Most companies have failed AAA games at this point and are pivoting to microtrans and mobile especially

[simple prairie]

but it was bound to happen sooner or later, ubisoft became too big for their own good so the old saying goes "the bigger they are the harder they fall" so to are EA, sims 4 was horrable compared to 3 i think they killed the sims off... i think

[quick rune]

I cant find a dedicated server for this so im going to put it here. I recently downloaded anomaly 1.5.3. version and it all installed ok but when I tried to create a game it went to a loading screen and then it crashed. Does anyone else have a similliar problem or a solution?

[torn fable]

EA failed battlefield, mass effect, battlefront, dragon age for example and we can't expect a decent sequel

[sweet stone]

try the ANOMALY DISCORD

[quick rune]

i didnt find a discord specificaly for anomaly

[sweet stone]

that was made FOR ANOMALY that you can find VIA GOOGLE

also on the moddb page

[torn fable]

Its true EA can get free money from sports games, but that's because the games themselves and the players inteligence are at the level of phone games

[quick rune]

I apologize just as I hit enter on the previous message I found it, Thank you harris

[sweet stone]

[torn fable]

None of the companies are going away they're just gonna make pointless phone games (Although might be available on PC and consoles) because that makes more money while they cost much less to make
While not making new games for their actually good series because they just can't because of their structural bloat, new "ideas" and incompetent management

[fervent prairie]

@viral sandal so what games in your opinion have characters like that? Because where do you draw the line between "This character exists to be the gay stand in" and "This character is just gay"*

[simple prairie]

ew mobile games will never play them my computer would not like that xD

[mossy fable]

They definitely upped the detail

[simple prairie]

rtx off/on xD

[viral sandal]

One of my favorites videogame characters is Ellie from The last of us. She is lesbian, but that is not the only thing that defines her.

[thorn cove]

[torn fable]

I think stalker 2 did it pretty well with how lens is missing a leg but no one bats an eye, there's no speech when you meet him where he says "im just as good as anyone else despite being disabled" and then beats some ableist guy. He's just disabled and you can head about how in a side convo if you want

Or how there's just some black guys they're just black nothing about how they're heros because of it

[mossy fable]

@simple prairie the left is PS1 graphics the right is the remaster graphics

[viral sandal]

Yes, most AAA games just want to milk you. Luckly, indie game are there

[fervent prairie]

Which is fine, but I have never personally seen the strawman where the opposite happens in a video game ever. It happens in TV, sure, but I can't say that I've ever seen it in a video game. And I'm a fat greasy balding man who's played a lot of video games

[mossy fable]

Also for being a guardian it wasn't very hard lol

[fervent prairie]

Right but where's the lesbian character who is defined by being a lesbian?

[viral sandal]

They repeated the same formulas until exhaustion. I don't know what they expected.

[torn fable]

First thing I think of is saints row, also a game that used to be good and now has failed

[fervent prairie]

Which character was defined by their sexual preferance, ability or gender? Yeah there was cringe writing. But was it really "woke" as in trying to push an agenda, or was it just cringey millennial writing. The problem I have with the word "woke" is that it doesn't seem to have a meaning anymore. Back in the meme era of 2016 when it was funny to shit on armchair activists, the phrase honestly meant something. It usually referred to someone who was trying to pretend to be more socially aware than they really are to benefit their position in their social caste/class.

Now, you have entire spreadsheets that are very popular that boil wokeness down to "there is a black/gay/trans character therefore 'woke'"

same with sims city which is very sad, honestly ill never buy another EA game again unless they change their ways and actully become like their old selfs in the early 2000s ... which will happen sooner or later...

More than likely I think not, they will all pivot toward the easier, less risky and cheaper profits after their expensive failures, new (Nor smaller like gsc) companies will have to make the good games

That was the first thing my friend noticed too.

[mossy fable]

Clearest example would be using Raziel

Yeah. Let’s not forget PlayStation just had 2 big flops in one year. Concord and the horizon Lego game

Especially since the Soul Reaver has a glow as well that bounces off objects

[wispy knot]

Only paying $12.42 for a entire large stuffed crust pizza delivery

Stop talking s**t about us!

[mossy fable]

The game definitely predates that

[wispy knot]

Overcharged could've been great

But they screwed it all up

[fallen elm]

The lego game came out at a terrible time, I reckon it'll steadily sell copies as time goes on. It's lego, it's Horizon, if you're a Sony fanboy you're buying it even when it's on sale. Concord wouldn't get anyone to buy that game even on sale. Hell that Unknown9 game or whatever can't make sales either. That games screwed. It's onl sale atm on Steam for like 25 bucks still has less than 100 reviews.

[torn fable]

Certainly a astounding failure but LoU2 I consider a pre-failure too (Good sales, but not considered good, most likely dooming the series)

[urban coral]

How about a true LEGO game?

LEGO Universe

[hazy marsh]

Short term financial successes generally give companies a precedent. LoU2 long term didn’t do much as a whole, we still got a tv show. All that happened was their unannounced multiplayer project was canceled

[pseudo moat]

after all these yeaRS, FINALLY GOT A GOOD DARK THEME IN VLC!

[simple sage]

object279gaming has been warned

Reason: Bad word usage

[torn fable]

Starfield is another example of pre-failure, sold very well because people didn't know, but it's mostly disliked and very few plays it
Bethsda are no doubt aware of it and thats why they priced a medocre DLC that should have been part of the game pretty high, and they won't make any good DLCs for it at a reasonable price in the future

[hazy marsh]

Oh yeah like after concord. Play station releases will change.
Especially because of how long concord was in development and the blank check they were given. You can bet they’re not gonna give anymore blank checks to game devs. They’re already mad with bungie. Horizon zero Dawn LEGO game flops, and concord burns.

This year is not good for the PlayStation sector of Sony

[fallen elm]

I think the Starfield hate was over done. When Streamers/Influencers start crapping on something it becomes the fun thing to do. Starfield wasn't a bad game other than the performance. It's a typical Bethesda RPG.

[stray osprey]

I just don't feel like paying more than $10 for starfield though

[hazy marsh]

Because Bethesda fans have that one thing where they keep returning to an abuser. Literally Bethesda puts out this horrible slop and people like me gobble it up while complaining on how bad it is.

[torn fable]

Well I'd say it has the decline and lower quality expected from a Bethesda game in 2024
I kinda enjoyed it, but I can't really say it's good.

Evening stalkers

[hazy marsh]

Yo

[viral sandal]

I've may been too literal when I expressed myself. Those characters may have some other characteristics, but the way they are showed to the player really feels like an inclusivity template.
Regarding some games with this type of characters I remember that Overwatch had at least one, I can't remember which one.
If inclusivity is done right, when it fits the context and the characters have something else to say, it's good. Good example of this are the characters in Cyberpunk 2077.
Seriously, I really don't care if a person if gay, black or transgender. For me they are people and I respect them and I talk to them as any other person.

What even happened with the Outer Worlds, anyways?

[hazy marsh]

Bethesda is a has been.

The problem with them is they’re not up to date with the industry, modern upgrades, and the current generation.

Everything they’ve done after fallout 4 just feels behind.

Best way to phrase it is, fallout 4 feels like the first time they actually took the effort to make their games feel new, after that everything felt like it was just a 2016 game with a new coat of paint.

[urban coral]

It kinda just disappeared after less than a week

I just have a different definition of it in my head. When I say dead, I’m not ignoring the fanbase and community. I’m just saying “I think the game series is dead because they aren’t interested in making another installment or expanding the universe.” But abandoned is probably a better word for it

[fallen elm]

You believe that?

[umbral niche]

God killzone on the ps3 was so good
Same with resistance

[torn fable]

Well spending a lot of time with it, the design contradictions are jarring. Main story is all about new game+. This is the central focus of the game. It would make sense to have a story like stalker2 where there is some choices to make that affect things. But it's not - All the quest lines are designed to let you get 99% of the experience in one playthrough, with no significant choices to make that affect your future gameplay, except one (crimson/UC) that just kinda breaks half the enemies in the game... But that's the only choice, you can do everything else and join all the opposing factions.

But the point of the game, the whole main story is still to replay the same thing, to get more powerful, although you have already seen all the content and gotten all the gear.

[bitter spruce]

what even is killzone

[fallen elm]

You really think.....they aren't going to make another Killzone game... xDDD

Don't believe everything you see online. MASSIVE W when you stop doing that.

Apparently we are getting a new Metro entry

[torn fable]

Then there is the outpost system that doesn't make sense with this at all - making them is slow, grindy, much slower and more involved than any game before, but I guess it can be comfy. Having NG+ to reset missions so you could have something else to do in-between would be a good idea, right...? Except you lose them on NG+, so you have to choose if you want to have missions or outposts and once you choose outposts you better stay.

[hazy marsh]

Well then what can we say about the state of the series? That it’s going to come back?
Because everything suggests it isn’t

Valve is no better than EA, they are busy milking free money from other peoples games and microtransaction loot boxes, that's why they have no reason to make HL3 or another good normal AAA game. They are ahead of the curve actually!

So even if you didn’t get a steamdeck.
Proton is a love letter for the Linux community. No more jumping through stupid hoops just to run a game because you don’t want windows bloatware and spyware.

Sure as most PC gamers who run on windows don’t have a reason to care because it doesn’t affect us or what we do.

The only thing that's going on with Valve is them being taken to court in the UK/Europe or something. Nothing in the US.

[torn fable]

They're not doing it out of the goodness of their heart. They know that with steamOS-s compability layers (cause nearly no one is going to make linux native games any time soon), it's not going to be compatible with pirated games, competitors online games (tencent, EA) and player-friendly options like GoG...

[pseudo moat]

they need to go try those other launchers and get back to reality, its just better objectively and it was there first.

idk about monopoly, I play games only available on other launchers those other launchers are just nowhere near as good so I don't use them outside of locked content

[gray jetty]

there not doing anything to stop other launchers from taking market share

[simple prairie]

yeah i think so, somthing about censorship? didint really look into it ill do so now though

[torn fable]

It's basically like making their own OS, like a iphone, securing all the profits. Yes you CAN work around it but the people that arent already using GNU/linux cant and that's who it's for

[pseudo moat]

i do a lot of gog solely cuz i can buy it and then dl without a launcher but steams the only launcher i mess with, well i do got that red launcher for their games, but it gave you free shit in withcer 3 and cyberpunk lol

[gray jetty]

Other launchers just flat out are terrible

And hence no one uses them

[hazy marsh]

But if you’re going to talk about what valve has or hasn’t done, at least make sure to discuss where a lot of their money has gone. Because protons development has had a lot of money sunk into it, as it the “near impossible task”

And don’t forget they didn’t have to make Proton. Not every handheld you see runs on proton. Most others run on windows.
They really didn’t need to use proton or invest in creating it.
And actually creating it wasn’t profiting them either. They’re not getting money for making proton. Every other handheld usually uses windows.

[fallen elm]

You're talking about the hyper-cringe hyper-sensational stuff about nazis being PLATFORMED (boogey man words) by Valve for lack of moderation on their forums/discussions....

this entirely, they are just plain flat out the best at what they do, due to how long they been doing it. I made my first steam account in like 2004 lmfao

[gray jetty]

As Gaben him self said piracy is a services issue

[elfin jasper]

I'd be interested to hear about censorship but I'm honestly v. glad about the pre-release stuff. The number of dead-in-the-water games I have on steam alone is absolutely insane. I understand that it hurts RU gaming companies due to their weird pre-release tax laws that allowed War Thunder to effectively pay 0 doll hairs for 10 years of "development" but at the same time the majority of the rest of companies don't benefit from anything like that

[pseudo moat]

for hl2 collectors edition? i was mad and so were my uncles and the internet at needing a launcher, but it was worth it long term

[gray jetty]

Well I may have only been 2 years old in 2004 but

Still steam just is the best

[hazy marsh]

People call them a monopoly even though they’re a monopoly because the other platforms suck. Xbox sucks, Ubisoft sucks. Lists go on. It’s irritating how badly set up the other launchers are and how much you take steam features for granted.

GoG is a running list of games that you can openly pirate. A lot of reason people are go hard on Steam as much as they do is the service, the environment and people like myself have been on Steam since it's inception. 20 year badge bby.

I was watching the initial D remaster and they really downgraded the story but it probably was to keep it under 2 hours. The art is definitely better but they changed some VAs for bunta but Takumis va is still there. Couldn't get into the second movie because I just recently finished rewatching the first second.
