MOBA is the most boring genre ever made. Might as well play solitaire.

>>1040486 not quite as boring as walls of text

>>1040486 >played as a custom game in WC3 and SC1/2, nobody has any problems with it <after it became mainstream its now the worst thing ever

>>1040429 See the problem all has to do with the wifi & I decided to set it up right next to the router to test the connection. I go in & it won't even connect. Finally just now I try again & it tells me to reenter the password. Now all of a sudden it works. I'll just have to watch it to see if it stays connected now.

>>1040428 What's your wifi chip? AX200 Intel has shit tier bluetooth, idk about internet.

>>1040470 Qualcomm FastConnect 7800 Wi-Fi 7 High Band Simultaneous (HBS) Network Adapter. It's built onto the motherboard itself. I was able to sustain a connection for about 2 hours now after restarting the router. Have to test it upstairs away from the router next to see if that fixed the connection or proved I need to get a better range with a better router or an extra adapter. Internal or usb.

>>1039757 The mayor quest line is an interesting one becaus it extends beyond money to systems of power in my understanding. The people (AI) in control are beyond the monetary system into direct levers of power much like arasaka is in controlling mortality. It kind of extends beyond the dictorum of economics driving power.

>>1039793 It's an abusive relationship as the game puts to you.

>>1039214 >>1039213 Those numbers confirm that ubishit is gonna die soon.

UT99 is now legally freeware and allowed to be shared according to Epic Games apparently, so to celebrate I made a server: play.redchanit.xyz:7777 I'm a noob to UT99 so I only know the iconic maps, so the mapcycle currently is CTF-Face, DM-Deck and DM-Phobos.

>>1039768 nvm idk how map cycles work in UT so it has every map apparently, it's not obeying what I told it to use so I guess it just goes where it wants. I'll figure out plugins or whatever later

>>1039768 >>1039779 Gamenight when?

You know it's bad, when even Microsoft does a better job at remastering an RTS than Blizzard.

>>1039430 Unpopular opinion. I'm a long-time Warcraft 3 veteran, and I think Reforged isn't so bad. They patched a lot of the issues with launch for multiplayer. I really like how they brought back older UI designs from The Frozen Throne for Reforged. I like how they have an option to use the Classic models as well (I always prefer Classic over Reforged, so glad there's an option to revert a few of the changes). My only complaint is how they changed the lobby chat for custom games...

I do not understand why they keep pushing the "WC3 but with better graphics" meme when we already have HD graphics mod packs, they did what the community had done before but butchering the original character design in the process. Reforged HD units look like dogshit. Just re-release the original game but with better modding tools and let the community do the rest.

>>1039381 If that's their goal it won't even work, Valve doesn't hire people unless they have considerable experience in the industry or are VERY talented, and Nuclear Monkey these guys are not. That was the studio behind Narbacular Drop, who would be hired by Valve to develop Portal

>>1039295 >They all praise the UE5 choice but cry about the performance/stability + requirements as if it had nothing to do with that decision. Performance and Stability aren't the biggest problems with UE5. The biggest problem is that it's a canned game engine that's dead simple to use. Anybody can learn it and slot into any development team who uses UE. That's part of it's appeal, but the flip side of that coin is that by abandoning in-house developed engines you end up with a generalized can of shit that can't really do what you need your game to do as well as you need it to. It also squeezes out talent, because it's hard work to create a game engine to spec for games that haven't been created yet - and having a studio full of people who know how to use your companies own proprietary game engine means you'll retain talent to a much greater degree and that talent will be more highly paid with better benefits. The whole reason why you're seeing such a push to unionize in game development now is because talent is being pushed out in favor of outsourcing development to a shitload of outsourcing studios - who themselves are getting pump and dumped as soon as the game ships. You don't see Unionization for high-skill labor, because those skillsets are themselves leverage against corporate mistreatment. You only see unionization take hold in low-skill jobs, which the game industry has largely become. Meanwhile we get very pretty AAA games that run like dogshit, play like dogshit, have dogshit consistency between assets/environments, are full of bugs, and are overall just sterile and lack any spark of creativity. A lot of people blame the publishers for that, and it's not like they don't bear a good measure of the blame - but this trend towards canned game engines and the flooding of the labor market with low-value employees is a major factor as well.

>>1039551 Would the move to canned game engines not be a result of publishers or the other financial backers refusing to fund the development of propriotry engines for their games as a time and cost saving measure? I would also argue that, if the answer to the question above is in the affirmative, the flooding of the studios with low skill employment may be a knock on effect of studios seek to pay their employees as little as possible and as such they shed all the talented developers to begin with. I mean I've heard stories about how the industry is nortorious for underpaying devs (especially the maths guys you really need to develop an engine) way under market value for the skills they have.

So... does that mean we'll get the Dragon's Dogma we deserve even if it's called something else like... Drake's Defense, Leviathan's Lessons, Wyrm's Will or something like that.

>>1039195 What, two shitty companies with one of them being propped up with government money?

>>1039157 Yeah, DMC5:SE not coming to PC is insanity.

>>1038738 >All my favorite Dreamcast games have better versions on other platforms. Okay, everyone else disagrees.

>>1038738 Wrong and gay

>>1038738 I think the sonic games are supposedly better in dreamcast. I would also assume that the HOTD games where better there as well. I think any arcade game was suppose to be better on the dreamcast though I am not sure if that is due to using the similar hardware or I am just thinking of the SNK console. IN a unrelated note are people still playing online using the dreamcast or they are just using emulator for multplayer play?

>>1028261 >Impressive levels of shit taste <5 seconds later, recommends a fucking horrible kusoge that only him and his cousin (the creator), played

>>1021306 Okay gamers, pardon me for the tardiness on the November GotM thread, I thought I'd be much freer by now but I still lack many of my personal belongins and it's been tough keeping up with the site. Now, the supposed winner of the poll is a game called Pseudoregalia (PC), however I have some reservations about making it the official one. On the one hand, it checks out with the fanservice bit, even if it's specifically for one kind of fetish, plus it does have the most votes. On the other hand, it's extremely fishy how it has amassed so many despite usually most games winning at the 10-12 votes thresholds. If you people don't mind, I'll still put it up as this month's game for the next 15 days. However, I'm open to hearing out any complaints and working out some sort of compromise. Plus I still have to find a cracked version of the title in question, so there's that. In the mean time, have next month's poll to mull over: December's Long Haul! https://poal.me/7yo83j This month we'll celebrate those titles that take absurdly long to beat, let alone 100%, or that take place over the span of an extremely long time, be it years, decades or even eras. Pick any game, as long as it meets the criteria, it can make it to next month's thread!

>>1038837 >it's extremely fishy how it has amassed so many despite usually most games winning at the 10-12 votes thresholds Most "winners" are extremely fishy. >However, I'm open to hearing out any complaints and working out some sort of compromise Let Mark choose the game each month.

>>1038906 no she is not

>>1038904 Krimbo kim?

Was waiting a bit to see if anyone else would post any festive images for the thread. Nobody else did, so found some of popular lasses from the thread for the last two slots. Sorry to the Haydee lover though, I couldn't find an image of her in something festive that wasn't the promo art for Haydee 2 with the ugly human face. New thread >>1040342

>>1036653 That's some pretty cool trivia anon.

>>1036653 >Jodi Benson >Ariel (The Little Mermaid) at least they didn't cast nuAriel as Eva in the remake

>>1038619 That Somalian pirate from Captain Philips with an Ariel wig isn't too much uglier than Halle Bailey.

>>1032347 Don't know about vr roguelikes but Ancient Dungeon is my favorite vr roguelite and probably favorite vr game all categories. At least it's the one I've put most hours in. But of course, it's not a roguelike and of course you do spend most of the time in an ancient dungeon.

>>972785 Is it only the Meta Quest 2 or is it all of the headsets out? I heard that you need a Meta account for the 3 and 3s and requires your phone to actually use it. If that is the case I would buy it from costco to at least try it out.
