>>1125037 (OP) Let it be opt-in rather than opt-out. The most recent example for me is Baldur's Gate 3. When I do things my companions like, they all of a sudden proposition me for romance. I don't like that. I get having some be the ones to initiate, but it shouldn't be every companion all of a sudden wants to fuck me because I killed a bunch of druids and tieflings. I still like the game but the romance in it is badly done. No Wyll, I wanted you to teach me to dance, I do not want to have gay anal sex with you. Wyll's so fucking bland I thought they were trying to give him some quirk

>>1293004 True

>>1293004 This one is the only one that makes sense in a game narrative, avoids what >>1184178 describes and puts the romance to be integrated in the conclusion of the main conflict of the game

>>1443199 There was a show called "The Middle". One of the characters was called Kenny who only ever had his back to the camera and use to play PC games. I think I saw Starcraft 2 and Sins of a Solar Empire on occasion.

>>1440464 >Payday 2 Easter Egg in JW2 There is also a Payday 2 poster in Hardcore Henry, in the stoner's room.

>>1445083 And one of the Hardcore Henry characters (the coke addict) is a playable character in Payday 2. Man did Overkill ever fuck up the Payday franchise, (and this is going way before Payday 3)

I was saving these up for a big post then I forgot about them then I remembered, anyways check out Magical Nut Ikuno-chan. Because god knows these galge are endangered.

>>1440387 CHave some empathy, nip competition is otherwordly. All leading to a loveless marriage with a limp corporate slave who probably fauns over underrage waitresses in fetish wear at restaurants. She has every right to throw a fit, yet I find she takes it with maturity all things considered. >>1439988 Oh ok. I get what you mean. I guess the game cheats and makes all the characters loveable to me because most have some trauma that makes me overlook quirks I might dislike in people.

>>1440387 You didn't play the game did you? It's okay if you didn't, you are not missing much.

The idea for this character is INSANELY messed up >be a planetarium owner >your daughter wants a new dolly >lure some airheaded banana obsessed girl in >brainwash her into thinking she’s a dolly >have your daughter play with her like a dolly >some detective and her pet mushroom enter >the “dolly” is said detective’s friend >end up getting exposed and go mad >slip on banana peel and get rightfully sent to jail <because nothing says rated E like some planetarium owner kidnapping a child and giving her to his daughter as a new dolly

>>1431289 The Script Extender that has been made for literally every Bethesda Gamebryo game that allows more things to be done than the base game scripting, retard.

>>1414171 Just flush it down the toilet now

>>1422053 not that I know of, I assume there isn't enough autistic interest yet considering the work required. more so when the game can be played by yourself for the most part already, with no subscription required (base game is like 5 bucks and even includes morrowind iirc). stuff like dungeons/raids and pvp couldn't properly replicated with bots anyway

>>1439831 >>1440948 If you want to go down that road you can also consider whether playing original arcade games out of an arcade environment is a change in difficulty. After all they were designed to have quarters plugged into them to increase the credit count.

>>1440346 doom's stock binds sucked checkmate, faggot

>>1441430 Not as much as your mom triple fagget.

>>1385055 Unfortunately not.

Not much fanart on pixiv yet, but it's getting there slowly.

>>1218391 (OP) For some non-space games, take a look at Barotrauma & Sunless Sea which has more of narrative focus. If you find Sunless Sea interesting, pirate it, because key devs were ousted from the company afterwards, and they went on to found Weather Factory (Cultist Simulator, Book of Hours). Sunless Skies goes to show that they were key devs because, apparently, that game's not very good.

You left this pretty open, so I'll suggest Pulsar: Lost Colony, which is basically FTL but (mostly)multiplayer and 3d. https://yewtu.be/watch?v=AENwIX76xvM&t=93

reviving this thread to talk about Void War i like it but goddamn is it annoying to lose your boarding team to random bullshit or even bugs

>>1419123 (OP) >nigger Nah.

>>1437134 Just about to post this

>>1419123 (OP) Mechanically it sounds vaguely like the Superhero League of Hoboken. In Hoboken, you still play the superheroes - but it's more of an Adventure Game with some RPG elements tagged on. You control an entire team of superheroes and as situations arise you have to pick the best member to solve it. So instead of items to use to solve puzzles, you have seemingly useless "Mystery Men"-like powers to use in novel ways. So who you pick to be part of your team at any given time will determine what missions you'll be able to progress through.

>>1435076 I never played either of those myself, how's Everything or Nothing? >>1435134 PC port was unfortunately done by Gearbox, who bungled it hard. Console versions are fine, though.

>>1436851 It's not a PC port, it's a completely different game running on Goldsource.

>>1436923 My bad, could've sworn it was a port.

>>1388394 (OP) >Do people actually enjoy Diablo and games like Diablo? Seems like it, considering they've been making these games for more than two decades now.

as a casual who doesn't care much beyond beyond clearing the game on all three difficulties, the minmax grind sounds downright masochistic and miserable. the runeword grind alone makes me wanna puke. i don't know who could possibly enjoy farming equips just to make number go up, especially the one thing i don't like about games like it is that without number crunching/wiki autism (e.g. distribute your points exactly like this or you lose dmg) you're at a disadvantage. of course devs inevitably end up balancing stuff around the wiki autist minmaxers so you end up being forced to partake in it, skipping the discovery/experimentation phase and skipping straight to the endgame.

>>1436745 This is all caused by the synergy patch. Diablo 2 wasn't as heavy with farming to just progress. When we got the synergy patch they had to bloat the monsters stats. I remember when I was slowly making my way through Act IV Hell on a concentration maul barbarian and then downloaded the new patch and he could only hang in Nightmare due to how fucked the gear scaling became. This is partly why I enjoy Diablo I more than II. You can get by with either the items you find naturally on your descent, or find some magical gear to purchase from Griswold or Wirt. There was also a reason to pick up every magical item. People claim Diablo II has superb itemization, but there's only certain magical items they are looking for so most items that aren't normal won't be picked up. In Diablo I every magical item can be a potential upgrade. Sure there are less modifiers on magical items in Diablo I, but there is always excitement in finding any blue item. There was a run in which I did Hell with a Saber because it spawned with a high enhanced damage percentage and chance to hit which out did other weapons in damage regardless of their items higher base damage. I won't be picking up a blue short sword in Act IV/V normal in Diablo II because there's almost nothing that can spawn on it that'll out do other weapons types I've unlocked as I've progressed. Then you can compound that with early rune words that give modifiers that blue magical items simply can't give like crushing blow or open wounds, or a flat out +1 to all skills. Sadly ARPGs took the grind item treadmill from Diablo II rather than being one and done in a play session of Diablo I. I guess that's to be expected, more games are geared towards keeping a player playing the game across many years rather than being a concise session that the player might revisit in a year or two and spend a week on.

Seriously, hearing the Jailer say >Here in the jail we punish >Or at least we're meant to >I'm supposed to be intimidating >GRRR Completely killed any immersion I might have had in this world. 300 neurotic quirky side characters all at the same time just fucking killed it for me and it's a shame because outside the first Merchant you find (which has a lore reason for being quirky) the game took itself seriously. Should we write a meaningful well thought out character? No fuck that! Just make him autistic and completely out of place! It's ok, it's optional!

>>1428223 The writing is just of overall shit quality. One dimensional NPCs (hi, I'm a guard, here's my life story and a quest that goes along with it), flat side quests. I've read more interesting quests in MMOs. The lolrandom humour's best example is the quest where you get an explosive package in order to blow open a sealed tomb. Inside you find an undead cook who is obsessed with cheese. Completing the quest line gives you a spell that turns targets into cheese.

>>1436353 The issue isn't even the concept, you can do that silly stuff without shit writing that doesn't take itself seriously. Why can't these faggots just be genuine? Why does everything have to be sarcastic and quirky and shit, fucking hell.

>>1345709 What a strange crossover.

>>1249040 (OP) I don't like seeing girls be hurt. Not good games.

Have you played Dead Space Sabotage? It plays much better than DS1 though not as good as DS2. There is no dumb turret section for starters.

>>1431357 Was that the mobile game?
