Playing on Permadeath Anonymous 04/29/2025 (Tue) 14:48:07 Id: 2758ee No. 1286214 [Reply] [Last]
Hey /v/iggers. I recently pirated The Last of Us 2. Wasn't a fan of the first game and the sequel seems to have way too many cutscenes, but I really wanted to try it out for a long time since I heard that it has really good stealth and the game is about as gorgeous as games can look. Anyways, there are a ton of options available to you before starting, one of them being related to how death works; you can set it to where you have the traditional reset at a recent checkpoint, reset at the chapter beginning, reset at the act beginning, or reset at the very beginning. I set it to the act beginning, though this did little to discourage me from inpulsively jumping off a cliff to test whether it had an invisible wall. I wanted to ask whether you think there are times where it shouldn't be an option and that a game should force permadeath, or if not quite that, some sort of limit to the amount of times you can die like in arcade games. Do you think it heightens tension to an exciting level or to the point of annoyance?

>>1774798 >Permadeath only fits when the punishment stays somewhat limited, which is why you see it mostly in roguelite nowadays Not really. Try playing a new game self imposing on perma death and watch how much you change your own behaviors. It's a fun experience. Again, you're too much of a casual and need to be hand held into your own decisions, even design choices. I've skimmed over the rest of your post and you're arguing that dying isn't usually your fault in most games? lmao.
>>1775866 >Try playing a new game self imposing on perma death and watch how much you change your own behaviors. Yes, change, to play more meta and optimize the fun out of the game, truly a great improvement. >Again, you're too much of a casual and need to be hand held into your own decisions, even design choices You act like someone who has found a hammer and starts thinking you can use it on everything to good effect, it's not the case I've done deathless in several game (incidentally since I was speedrunning) and frankly it's usually not quite as interesting as you make it seem, just rote memorization and optimization, if anything it's usually baby's first challenge run. >I've skimmed over the rest of your post and you're arguing that dying isn't usually your fault in most games? lmao. Nigga, challenge yourself by learning to read first.
>>1286214 Playing linear games with permadeath is just boring, having to go through the same shit can demotivate you from playing a game. The reason why permadeath works in roguelikes and sandbox games is because restarting is fun, seeing new things, getting different stakes all makes restarting fun

<aka "they're gonna take you to the present, where your screen is fucking unpleasant" the thread >aka grafix discussion bread So I don't think it's much of a secret these days that despite <TAA, with ghosting and trailing <mandatory upscaling <framegen <raytracing and pathtracing more and more games are shipping out in worse technical states asking for more power while less is delivered. There are a myriad of reasons for this state of affairs but TL;DR something systemic is definitely going on and it's led to ripple effects like gamers buying more PC indie titles, reevaluation of the eighth generation, backlash against Unreal Engine, and the Threat Interactive drama. "buy new GPU" is no longer a valid dismissal since Nvidia's poor showing at CES, with barely an uptick in compute and the push for 75% fake frames and neural texture compression. Discuss this hot mess.

Mount & Blade: Bannerlord Anonymous 05/24/2025 (Sat) 22:11:43 Id: 90886b No. 1398413 [Reply]
Are there any mods that make new clans that spawn into campaigns not just the faction leader + {'s clan}? Seems like such a trivial fix they already have a random clan name generator when starting the game. Not setting life and death off is also kind of funny but offspring are usually set to minimum height/weight and nobleman/women seem to have a 50/50 chance of having either gender's clothing so you end up with deformed men in women's clothing and so on. I used a mod to manually create better looking nobles but I don't get how they aren't fixing stuff like this I mean they're going to release DLC in a month and it's still neglected like this.

I am once again shilling for E33. Play it, it's good! The prologue hooked me right in. adding more from 991671 since like he said, it's a bit of a lame OP. Kind of a lame OP, could have put a bit more effort in, but I just finished the game and would like to talk about it, so it's better than nothing. Overall, I very much enjoyed this game. There are certainly flaws, which become most apparent in the latter part of the game, but I don't believe any of them can completely ruin most people's experience. So much has been said about how great the music and the aesthetic of the game are, but I'm most impressed with how the characterization and ending was handled. It's clear that one of the main ideas the writers wanted to convey was that there were no true villains with evil intentions involved with the plot, and they definitely succeeded in expressing that.

Nintendo will host a Nintendo Direct broadcast on September 12 at 6:00 a.m PT / 9:00 a.m. ET, featuring approximately 60 minutes of updates on upcoming Switch 2 and Switch games. Considering its length I assume it'll be a big showing with a ton of games, hopefully some good third party ones as well. I kinda wanna sell my Switch 2 since I use my Steam Deck more these days, but I'm hoping this Direct will give me a few reasons to keep it LIVE NOW USA Stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWIEv_aksvo JPN Stream: https://youtu.be/B4ZOlKAGdx4
