[quiet abyss]

Mark 5 iirc?

[muted hearth]

👀

🔥

[quiet abyss]

Camaros are certainly prettier

XD

[muted hearth]

Not a fan

Big ol blindspot

[quiet abyss]

A golf is built like a fucking pebble mate

[muted hearth]

If you’ve ever driven one

[raven swan]

All of them look the same

[quiet abyss]

Lasts forever, but ugly

[muted hearth]

You know Camaros aren’t it

At all

[little depot]

I want a really riced out mini

[quiet abyss]

I said looks not function

[muted hearth]

Yea it looks like shit too

[timber oxide]

Ew, don't

[quiet abyss]

They look better than a golf

[muted hearth]

You can get a 5.0 stang

And look wayyyy better

[timber oxide]

Just get a non-riced out mini

[little depot]

But funny

[copper vapor]

kill 3 squads in a raid
a 4th squad appears

[quiet abyss]

Honestly mustangs arent worth their price anymore

[muted hearth]

Personally it’s dodge > ford > Chevy

Don’t crucify me

Pls

[copper vapor]

I didn't have enough ammo for so many people lmao

[raven swan]

I want a maaniken edition lancer

[muted hearth]

This CL55 I have was my dream car since I was young

Now it’s boring as shit

[quiet abyss]

Ah dodge, the number one vehicle to drop important parts for no reason

[muted hearth]

I want a dad mobile now

[quiet abyss]

Fucking hate dodge

[timber oxide]

Best I can give you is a normal Lancer

[muted hearth]

Jeep SRT me

Can’t afford a trackhawk lol

[quiet abyss]

As reliable as a fucking luty

[opal star]

Tell you what, $1,000,000 for my D11.

Thats to say dodge is shitty

[little depot]

Cash only.

[quiet abyss]

Yes

[little depot]

That's gonna be a pain in the ass

[quiet abyss]

You get the forest under the guise of helping your son

[obsidian sun]

oh yeah ?

[timber oxide]

I think my friend and I actually built two gazebos instead of saving Timmy

[quiet abyss]

Oh yeah? Lets see what the flesh totem i made from their friends has to say about that! disgusting gore dripping sounds

[slim magnet]

i've been playing this game for like 16 years and just now decided to hover over defense to see what the game says it does

16 years thinking it was physical damage reduction

[quiet abyss]

[hexed kernel]

i meaaann

[slim magnet]

i could've never thought it was a dodge roll

[opal star]

Alright, $200k down payment cash upfront. $12.3k monthly after for 7 years. 6% APR.

[verbal lodge]

almost flawless 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩🟥🟩🟩🟩 9/10 | 2025-10-04 | https://scrandle.com

[slim magnet]

yes i know physical damage reduction exists in some runewords and uniques but it could've just been its own separate stat

like fire absorb vs fire res

[hexed kernel]

have you seen yestardays scran

[hexed kernel]

no i mean both ultimately reduce the damage you take so it's not that big of a deal

[verbal lodge]

sometimes they do troll votes like that and it pisses me off

[slim magnet]

very true

[hexed kernel]

every friday actually

[slim magnet]

all is good with the world

fuck this guy too

[quiet abyss]

So neat thing in sons of the forest

You can effectively duplicate items with a shelf

As long as the items are in stacks

Like ammo for the shotgun

When placed on a shelf

Any stacks under 10 will be rounded to 10

For instance you have 11 shells

When you put those on the shelf, you end with 20

[obsidian sun]

🥀

[copper vapor]

peak

[quiet abyss]

You can switch ammos with shotgun, so you can load 8 buck shot, put the extra 2 away, which the. Gives you 10

Really confusing to type out

[thin bobcat]

Made the same mistake

[quiet abyss]

Easy to show

[thin bobcat]

That burger does not look good and honestly, the other dish is like 4$, why tf would I choose a burger like that over it

[obsidian sun]

indeed

ameritards saw burgers and nuttted in they pants

do people look at the prices

sometimes it doesn't even make sense

[thin bobcat]

I do because I ain't gonna vote for like 2 sushi rolls for 40€

[obsidian sun]

you get 2 good meals
one is 0.50£ the other is 7.20

and the 7.20 one wins

[thin bobcat]

I mean, come on, it looks like Bonnie Blue's pussy after the 500th man

[thin bobcat]

Yeah it's just retarded

The prices are completely ignored most of the time

[opal star]

That's a MF shovel.

[thin bobcat]

Like bro, this is a paint bucket with chicken pieces, it ain't worth 17.50 British Pounds

Chicken looking soggy as hell as well

[hexed kernel]

competitive scrandle when

[forest acorn]

wait until you learn that attack power is hit chance and not a dps modifier

i meant technically it is a dps modifier but not straight damage

[wild vortex]

17.50 and they give you the same bbq sauce my school cafeteria gives

LMAO

[slim magnet]

but d2 doesn't have attack power

that's d3

[pliant meteor]

[thin bobcat]

surely they could jsut have a competition to make some posters and hand those out as prizes

[hearty wyvern]

3skin packs the rest are earnable in game :p

And the skins are like

A week old

It's better than tabors skins too :p

[slim magnet]

i never got the hype behind gunfighter for ready or not

it's a mega nothing burger for me

they have so many damn skinpacks

[slim magnet]

but that's it

[forest acorn]

oh is this not tabor

[hearty wyvern]

It's exfilzone

It's better by alot

gotta buy ingame currency to buy the skins

[hearty wyvern]

No?

It's just the normal currency

You earn in raif

Raid*

[forest acorn]

what are contract dollars

[hearty wyvern]

Raid money

You go in get high value sell it for 100000 contractors dollars

Skins are 100000 ish per can and each can has 100 uses

[forest acorn]

ngl this seems like complete ass compared to tabor

[hearty wyvern]

There's no way to buy any currency with the game

[hearty wyvern]

[forest acorn]

and it has the cherry on top of being a poorly optimized ue5 game

[slim magnet]

cs just for the extra 3 gas nades

after the breach shotgun nerf

[tiny pivot]

tbf i think gunfighter ruined me because im dependent now on it

[slim magnet]

the breach shotgun deserved the hit but i'm still bitter about it because it kinda killed speedrunning

[tiny pivot]

i just carry cs gas so when a guy i tied up is pissing me off i just throw one down next to him

[fluid trout]

Turn the room into the equivalent of an outgoing pipe in a Nestle plant

[tiny pivot]

how good actually was the breach shotgun tho?

i just use the ram

or C2 if ik there's a threat inside

[slim magnet]

5~6m range for a full force swing and like 10m for the doorknob to successfully break off

[tiny pivot]

ah that's why

[slim magnet]

it was super easy to complete a lethal obsession in under 90 seconds non lethal, even solo, by using the breach shotgun

even on people since it almost never kills

[tiny pivot]

sadly i don't have friends to play with so the AI does everything with me

[slim magnet]

i also play solo 99.9% of the time

[tiny pivot]

and from what i can see their distant doesn't really change

[slim magnet]

and even go true solo by hosting a private multiplayer lobby

[tiny pivot]

do you have the AI use it or just you?

[slim magnet]

you have to try patrol officer playthroughs

[slim magnet]

[tiny pivot]

aren't those the pistol only solo clear

His Brother is also mentaly retarded from the crash and bikes through the whole of germany with his famous Coca Cola bottle

honest to goodness, was at the college to do one of those community outreach thingy and the guy shadowboxed for like 4 hrs straight if the security guard is to be believed

all I know is, he was shadowboxing when I went in, still shadowboxing when I exited

[obsidian sun]

don't they get the full price tho

[carmine laurel]

?

[obsidian sun]

when steam does discounts do they get paid pennies ?

[carmine laurel]

it doesnt matter how much of the cut they get, the meme is an indie dev being upset that "steam" put their game on 90% sale

when steam sale pricing is always decided by the publisher of the game

[thick plover]

If game is two dolla

They get like

Dollar 60

[obsidian sun]

yea ik
but when steam does the sale
do they get paid 10% or the full 100%

[carmine laurel]

steams cut always applies afaik

[thick plover]

Steam takes 30% i think

[carmine laurel]

no

[thick plover]

I forgot

[carmine laurel]

30% is old

its on a range

more sales = lower steam cut

[obsidian sun]

other than the cut

what im saying is
if a game is 10$ and it's on 90% sale
does the dev get the 10$ - the cut
or 1$ - the cut

[carmine laurel]

obviously 1$ - cut

how would you get 10$ - cut if the purchaser only spent 1$

[obsidian sun]

but steam decides the sales

[carmine laurel]

steams not going to pay you 9$ for putting out a discount

steam doesnt

[obsidian sun]

really ?

[carmine laurel]

steam asks you if you want to put your game on sale

and you decide if you will and how much

[obsidian sun]

ahh

ok nvm then

[carmine laurel]

its never steam doing the pricing

[quiet yew]

who actually thinks that

[obsidian sun]

the meme posted implied that

[quiet yew]

oh

[carmine laurel]

the meme is also by a dev trying to blame steam xD

[quiet yew]

of all the corporations to blame
steam

[obsidian sun]

tbf tho it's hard getting paid from indie games unless they explode

[carmine laurel]

yeah but thats not steams fault

[quiet yew]

it's like walking into a room filled with mostly war criminals, spotting Jesus in the corner and then hanging him

[carmine laurel]

steams biggest claim to blame in games being hard to explode is that they make it too easy to list a game

[pallid sapphire]

Just make a good game and its a no brainer if people think its good

simple

[obsidian sun]

im not blaming steam

[proven tundra]

[obsidian sun]

im just pointing out

[carmine laurel]

ye

[carmine laurel]

Like I said here

its hard to blow up as a random indie because theres 40-70 new releases a day

[obsidian sun]

and you really can't set high prices either if you want people to buy

[carmine laurel]

simply listing it isnt really enough

[obsidian sun]

rock and a hard place type shii fr fr

[carmine laurel]

you get max 4 hours on the new releases page

[quiet yew]

no no no
you gotta make a battlepass and always online features that require constant resources/maintenance

[obsidian sun]

i heard that half the budgets are usually spent on marketing

[carmine laurel]

smart indies will schedule their games release to coincide with an anticipated AAA release

since then the new releases will slow down in fear of being overshadowed

[obsidian sun]

this is simply not true

[carmine laurel]

giving you up to 20 hours on new releases tab

[obsidian sun]

i always find great games on steam with like 5 reviews

and the games are 8 years old or some shit

[carmine laurel]

making a game is the easy part of selling your game

[quiet yew]

name some for me

[carmine laurel]

if people dont know it exists, you wont get sales

doesnt matter if its a 12/10

[pallid sapphire]

Weird cause most stuff i find is garbage and not good in my eyes

[obsidian sun]

lemme check steam
even i forgot

[obsidian sun]

yea if you get 20k games a year ofc most of it trash

[quiet yew]

there's a good reason most games are forgotten

[proven tundra]

What do your German eyes see Lafe

[obsidian sun]

i lost the text document
it's joever

i pay the price of not whishlisting games

[pallid sapphire]

What i wanted to say in this day and age its not hard to market your game and rn a german youtuber pumps and publishes a lot of roguelikes that are pretty good like 9 kings and deadly days roadtrip

[obsidian sun]

it is infact hard

[pallid sapphire]

You could fucking market your game on tiktok and get a lot of peoples attention

[carmine laurel]

No

Sorry laff, but the fact is that people do try this

and 90% do not get traction

[proven tundra]

If it were that easy why does it not happen

[pallid sapphire]

Cause theres to much slop

[obsidian sun]

9 kings was carried by other youtubers tho

[proven tundra]

So it's hard then?

[carmine laurel]

Same for Peak

same for waterpark simulator

same for those digging games

you gotta have money to get them marketed or you gotta hope someone is gonna try your no name game and make a video of it

[pallid sapphire]

yes because one of the publishers is one himself and used connections

[proven tundra]

Luckily I have a very specific niche and there's not a lot of new releases to sort through

[pallid sapphire]

besides him pushing it himself

[pallid sapphire]

My niche is Ace combat and even that got a big fanbase now

[obsidian sun]

well that's a different case

[quiet yew]

and if he didn't have them it would be hard

[pallid sapphire]

Beta decay

[carmine laurel]

The average person doesnt have connections to high profile youtubers xD

[pallid sapphire]

it does absolutely NO advertising at all and just blew up by people promoting it on Youtube

[proven tundra]

Lafe I hate to say it
But you're making Sab tier arguments rn

[obsidian sun]

^

[real aspen]

kill yourself

[pallid sapphire]

Fuck

[carmine laurel]

No game that gets promoted on youtube does no marketing

[real aspen]

[quiet yew]

yeah
because it got lucky
do you think every single indie game gets this treatment?
fuck no
99% are swept under the rug

[upbeat verge]

alo chat

Im back home

meow

[carmine laurel]

if you get someone just like "today I'mma try this brand new game no ones ever heard about" out of the blue

[obsidian sun]

if that was the case we wouldn't be listing this few games

[pallid sapphire]

If every single Indie Game would get that treatment it would mean that every single Indie game is the GOAT

[proven tundra]

[carmine laurel]

then theres an email and likely a payment on it

[obsidian sun]

the only one i trust is iron pineapple

[pallid sapphire]

You can only win if you dont make a game at all and get practical skills like building a house

[obsidian sun]

so true

[proven tundra]

Just be rich

[carmine laurel]

I dont, any channel known for playing a type of game gets constant requests to play new game in that niche

Like fooster plays survival and horror games

[proven tundra]

Re roll if you didn't get nepo baby start

[upbeat verge]

Just steal

[pallid sapphire]

If you throw that more often at me it makes me overthink my statements more

[carmine laurel]

and every time its a new game he's playing, its a straight up "the dev asked me to give it a try"

[quiet yew]

of course the bulgarian says this

[obsidian sun]

he does say when he finds it on steam or when it's recommended / dev sent him a copy

and he does pretty honest reviews

[carmine laurel]

[obsidian sun]

i agree with 99% of his takes

[proven tundra]

Normally you're just aggressive
But rn you're making contradictory statements
It's easy but not really it's actually hard but it's actually easy

[real aspen]

what if we made it so there are only like 300 games made a year

so every game would get some spotlight then

[carmine laurel]

what if we killed you with hammers

[real aspen]

how? you ask

simple

[real aspen]

everyone kill 20 other people

[pallid sapphire]

Why hammers ?

[real aspen]

skeleton

[pallid sapphire]

WE kill him with Spoons

[real aspen]

by making each person kill 20 other people so there are simply not enough devs left to make more than few hundred games a year

[broken mountain]

flawless plan

Extremely slow innefficient murder with a spoon

I'm on a day off so I'm gonna watch wolf of wallstreet for the first time

just ban creating new games
gaming peaked in the 2000s anyway

[carmine laurel]

we were having a productive talk about game marketing but now sabs here with his nonsense

[obsidian sun]

this one is specific to sound

[carmine laurel]

also you're an actual retard if you think games from the year 2000 are the ultimate peak

[broken mountain]

Lafettie has a green card to being biased, because his based opinions overshadow the shit ones

[carmine laurel]

boy I love my games where people were still arguing about the use of WASD as movement keys

[obsidian sun]

big rigs over the roads racing released in that period

oh I forgot Fortnite surpassed everything already

it's always getting better depending on what you play

clearly AI generated

[carmine laurel]

we've always had bad games and we've always had great games

remember when they literally tried to bury that one sonic game that sucked so hard?

[quiet yew]

umm ackhually
100 years ago, we had neither

[broken mountain]

The worst opinion I've heard is that I am a part of the modern day gaming problem because I bought and enjoyed stalker 2

[obsidian sun]

2006 ?

[carmine laurel]

nah older

[real aspen]

[carmine laurel]

the fuckass big cartridges

[broken mountain]

I did

[quiet yew]

problem? not really
dumbass? yes

[real aspen]

good

[obsidian sun]

i mean he did enjoy it

[broken mountain]

I cant enjoy a game even though I find it great

[carmine laurel]

its entertainment media

[broken mountain]

because its "objectively" bad

[carmine laurel]

the point is to find ones you enjoy

[broken mountain]

[carmine laurel]

regardless of if its good or bad

[obsidian sun]

it's not objectively bad lmao

[pallid sapphire]

If you didnt play Atari you got no taste in gaming at all

[carmine laurel]

mfw the entertainment medium entertains

[broken mountain]

[pallid sapphire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pmPjsBDN9Xw

[broken mountain]

I didnt find it great, but it was entertaining

[carmine laurel]

yeah, the point is to have fun

sure we love 10/10 stories

[quiet yew]

you can
it doesn't make it actually good
I can say POSTAL 2 is my favorite game but it doesn't excuse the fact that it's a barely functional pile of shit

[carmine laurel]

but theres a difference between a masterpiece thats not enjoyable and a mid game that you can dump 400 hours of fun into

[broken mountain]

Well, I dont rate games because of how "objectively" great written everything is, but because of how much invested I was into it

[obsidian sun]

i base it on how i felt
no need to write a fucking article pointing out what i liked and what i hated

everyone wants to be a critic

[carmine laurel]

my rating system is simple

[obsidian sun]

" i enjoyed playing this game"
" erm buddy name 1 good thing about it "

[carmine laurel]

"did I have fun?" if yes = "tell other people who like what I like to play"

[raven swan]

I'm returning from my side quest

[broken mountain]

I like pointing out things I like and dislike, but I aint gonna compare 2 different genres to eachother to prove that one is better than the other lmao

[raven swan]

Perhaps an upgrade is in the cards afterall

[obsidian sun]

yea

[quiet yew]

I mean
if you enjoyed a game but cannot write a single good thing about it, I'm not sure your brain is functional

[broken mountain]

Literally "RDR2 is better than dying light the beast", when one focuses on realism and the other on being arcade-ish

[real aspen]

i cant even point out what i like or dislike on spot

[obsidian sun]

i felt good playing the game
that's 1 good thing about it

[carmine laurel]

fam, literally having fun playing the game is 1 good thing about the game

[real aspen]

i kinda instinctively like or dislike something without much reason behind it, be it games or movies or anime or books

[carmine laurel]

and literally the most important good thing there is

"why did you play X"
"I liked it"

easy

[broken mountain]

you can make a silencer out of a cat, thats 1

[quiet yew]

sure but in a review, it doesn't really mean anything

[upbeat verge]

Not a bad haul chat

decent dvds

[raven swan]

A what

[obsidian sun]

as i said
everyone wants to be a critic

[quiet yew]

exactly
I meant something like this

[broken mountain]

postal 2

[obsidian sun]

im talking about the average person not critics

[broken mountain]

you can grab a dead cat and make it into a silencer

[proven tundra]

[obsidian sun]

"critics" should be put in a warehouse and torched alive

[raven swan]

That's sick (derogatory)

[quiet yew]

I mean yeah, if I spend my money on something I better get a right to critique said thing

[carmine laurel]

You can either want to see organic reactions to a game that someone enjoyed, or think that games journalists should be taken seriously

[broken mountain]

[obsidian sun]

you're not getting me
im saying that people demand you write an article if you enjoy a game

if you want to critique go ahead

[quiet yew]

who demands that

[carmine laurel]

the guys who get paid to make reviews arent trusted by gamers, but the gamers leaving a "its a fun game" comment get asked to write a critiques

[obsidian sun]

retards usually

[quiet yew]

iirc, steam doesn't have a minimum review length

[carmine laurel]

didnt you literally say it here #╟❓general-offtopic message

[broken mountain]

Ngl reviews barely mean shit to me because game preference is more personal than objective, I'd rather buy it and either continue or refund if I dont like it

[pallid sapphire]

i still have to see these "unique" quests

[quiet yew]

a single good thing =/= a 5000 word article

[obsidian sun]

i usually look at gameplay videos if i want to try a game or not

[carmine laurel]

yeah and saying its fun to play is a single good thing

[raven swan]

That's enough torch the game journos talk
