>>1311435 Whats the secret to maxing your speed? In the last circuit they cruise faster than my top straightline speeds. Or how to handle cornering that map that is nothing but narrow bridges. As soon as the boundaries at the sides disappear I fall off the map. Slowing enough to navigate it safely drops my speed too much to move out of last place. I found the tuning for for trading accel & maxspeed but it seems like there is something else to it. Playing the 64 version the navigation at the fastest speeds is insane. Having owned the cartridge framerate didn't seem like a problem.
>>1314898 I've only done the first invitational course, but what I know so far... The speedruns seem to rely on luck to get the ultimate or penultimate engine upgrade from the junkyard, and I guess they get to the credits like that, just relying on skill. I half-watched the run from ESA17 this morning, but a closer viewing would reveal more details. As for steering, I've observed that it's pretty weird. Sometimes it seems like I can make a hard turn more easily by tapping the gas instead of the brake. There are a pair of buttons to turn the pod sideways that don't seem to have much effect on actually turning. The ESA runner referred to "drifting" at one point, which is interesting.

Not Enjoying Games Anymore? Anonymous 04/30/2025 (Wed) 06:23:37 Id: d88aab No. 1289861 [Reply] >>1315414
This is sort of a meta thread, so feel free to remove it if it's the wrong place for this. Anyway, have you all ever become burnt out on video games? I've felt like recently no matter what I play, I just can't enjoy it. I get the initial enjoyment of starting the game that I've been thinking about for a very long time, but I just don't have the reason or motivation to care to see it through, and the more I force myself to continue the game, the more I hate it. The last time I enjoyed a game was when I was playing through the MGS series. I racked up a list of things I wanted to play or replay because at that moment, I was solely focused on playing MGS. After I finished, I took a short break and decided I wanted to play DMC, since I tried it a long time ago and thought maybe I'd enjoy it on another attempt. I started out liking it, but slowly began to hate it, and eventually I dropped it. I went on to replay Nier after that because I remember very fondly those characters and wanted to check it out again, but didn't have the investment to see past the first few hours. Then a friend bought me Death Stranding, another game I disliked before, but decided I would give another go. After about 5 hours, I lost steam for it. I then tried to play Thief, a brand new game, and while I loved the game's atmosphere and think it's amazingly designed, I quit that one, too, because it just didn't spark anything in me. Now I've been fiending for a Sekiro replay after getting more into samurai films, and Sekiro is one of my favorites, but even now I feel like I'd rather be playing something else, like Ghost of Tsushima or Nier. On the flip side, I played Shantae somewhere in between those games and was hooked, I loved it, and I'm replaying Morrowind right now because it's a game that's near to my heart and am similarly in love with it. I know I can like games, but for some reason, I just can't enjoy the ones I feel so interested in playing. There's just something missing from me that's not letting me enjoy new games. I've mostly just resigned to doing my other hobbies by now. It makes me very frustrated, though, like something's broken about me. It's as if I like the idea of playing these games than actually playing them. I want to like them, but I just can't. Have you anons ever experienced this issue? How did you fix it?

The industry is quite stale in terms of ideas for now so instead of playing vidya i'm trying to create my own and experiment with things.

It's about time for my yearly replay of FF5. Any ideas for an autistic way to replay the game? Last year I played the game with Bartz only (other than the part where you only have Galuf and Fork Tower where I only used Krile). The year before it was Blue Mage + Beastmaster only.

I don't find challenge runs like Four Job Fiesta or stuff like it fun. But if I ever replay the game again, I'll probably force myself NOT to use Blue Magic and pretend it just doesn't exist. Having to keep looking up spells and enemies and learn the things just eats up too much time and centralizes my strategy too much.

Necrodancer thread (and cadence of hyrule I guess) Anonymous 04/16/2025 (Wed) 09:40:48 Id: 51983b No. 1095298 [Reply]
Discuss Crypt, Cadence of Hyrule and Rift of the Necrodancer in this thread. You love rhythm games and roguelites right?? Brag about beating the game if you did. I finally beat Aria, Bolt, Monk and Nocturna all zones modes recently, in that order. It felt great, clocking in around ~100 hours of playtime in Crypt. Only got around 20 hours in Rift, the songs on hard difficulty really get difficult after a point. Charming rhythm games, I regret not learning about them until recently. Now I'm not sure if I want to actually try to unlock Coda and attempt the ultimate challenge Crypt of the Necrodancer has to offer. Get the games on your favorite russian forum >Crypt https://cs.rin.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=65142&hilit=necrodancer >Rift https://cs.rin.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=125772&hilit=necrodancer

Why are there few games about the Mongol Empire? Anonymous 04/24/2025 (Thu) 03:34:14 Id: d5ddb9 No. 1236110 [Reply]
It's a cool and excellent setting due to the epic diversity of conquest that the Mongols have done. >Unite nomadic tribes to form the Khan. >Defeat Chinese Dynasties that have advanced technology and gunpower weapons. >Utterly destroy Islamic Civilization. >Rampage Russia, Poland and Hungary. >Fight the Egyptian Mamluks. >Fight Japanese Samurai. >Fight against Koreans,Vietnamese, Koreans and Indonesians. >Fight each other through civil wars using their main military and the local troops. But somehow very few games scratch the surface of how epic actual history is.

modern education doesn't discuss mongol history in the west, and the only exposure modern generations got was the episodes of southpark where that one dude built a chinese wall surrounding the town and mongols attacked it repeatedly.

To be completely fair China is very good as assimilating invaders into becoming Chinese. The basic pattern seems to be >attack China >conquer China >rule China >become China

Post them. Rate/hate. Recommend which games other people should start with first. I have 100 games on Steam which I figure should last me a long time--outside of a few upcoming sequels/DLCs to games listed, I won't be spending any more on games until I've finished everything here. This is actually doable as most of them aren't super long. Stardew Valley is left out because I'm already planning to play it at a relaxed pace as I play other games.

Astro Bot Anonymous 04/21/2025 (Mon) 23:54:06 Id: e419bf No. 1200132 [Reply] >>1310310>>1310405
It's overrated overbranded toddler upchuck laced with corpo poison. "Sony's Mario" fucking no. Mario wasn't an overbranded cynical cash grab. Mario wasn't a wink at the camera shallow "how do you do fellow kids" attempt at normalizing the worship of corporate tech products. Mario didn't fly round the galaxy in a ship shaped like a fucking NES, his brand was himself. Astro Bot can't even exist in its own internally coherent setting because the setting is literally crossover corporate fanfiction, the setting is the DIGITAL STOREFRONT OF THE SONY CORPORATION. Also this attempt to normalize mUh CuTe RoBoTS is clearly an attempt to brainwash gen alpha into accepting faceless ai powered surveillance drones into their homes for the benefit of Great Israel. Even the setting of Astro Bot is a corporate psyop presenting a world where machines=good organics=bad. They designed Astro to look like Musk and Thiel's new faceless robot drones that will displace 99% of workers in the next decade, they're priming you for domestication and submission to Palantir.

>>1200132 (OP) I only looked into this game once it won GOTY, and I'm just fucking baffled at how the hell anyone can praise it. In terms of gameplay there's absolutely no fucking depth, it's one of the easiest and simplest platformers I've seen. It just tries to constantly throw shallow theme parks at you with basic gimmicks, minimal exploration, and constant crossovers with dead IPs in the hopes that this will amuse you, and somehow the masses are absolutely enthralled by it. I remember hearing how it had a level that was a "love letter" to Ape Escape, but when I looked at a video of it I was presented with a generic little grassy area with a monkey Statue of Liberty being the only Ape Escape element, which made me think the level was meant to be a callback to the first level of AE2 but there aren't any other shared elements, and then you catch some Astro monkeys, fight some generic Astro Bot enemies, and then do a very basic boss fight against a Spencer bot. That was it, that was the supposed love letter I just can't understand how anyone can praise the game, I liked modern collectathons like Hat in Time or Demon Turf enough so it's not like I'm a bitter old man who hates new games, Astro Bot just seems like it fails to have any significant positive qualities beyond being a functional game
>>1200132 (OP) I watched a playthrough of it. Not only did it feel conceptually like "Sony's attempt at Mario," the aesthetic and thematic scenarios in which Astro found himself looked to me like literal 1:1 theft copies of Nintendo's previous Mario work. I was sort of astounded at how close they went ahead and made levels look/feel like Mario. But the game really is just "look at all the intellectual properties we either own or used to own and shat down our legs due to incompetence," isn't it? I'm honestly surprised there wasn't a Concord level.

It's time gamers, post your: >FAVORITE F-ZERO GAME >FAVORITE MACHINE >FAVORITE PILOT >FAVORITE PILOT THEME >FAVORITE MUSIC >FAVORITE TRACK[S] >BEST LAP TIMES >BEST WINSTREAK IN FZ99 For me, my favorite pilot is Draq and I actually really love the Mighty Typhoon. I think it's one of the best-feeling ships in GX to drive, and has one of the best boost/speed stats as well. Draq himself is just a lovable giant alien dude who's a hardcore fan of F-Zero in-universe and he's living his dream of racing with his heroes. He even practices by playing the F-Zero games. I love this big ugly fucker. Across all the games, I think my favorite track to play on is Outer Space (GX), but my favorite location (and music) is White Land (SNES). Just the idea of racing through a snowy winter planet with a city in the background speaks to me because I've always enjoyed winter, and the city in the background of the SNES game reminds me of the downtown area of my home city during Canadian winter. The music of White Land is just such a fun and happy snowboard ride. I'm miffed we never got White Land in GX because I would've loved to see it. Off the top of my head my favorite pilot theme music is Super Arrow's. For a while I thought it sounded like it was sung by the lead singer of Gorillaz/Blur (Damon Albarn)? That vocalist sounds an awful lot like him.

Games with the "Soldier of Fortune" spirit Anonymous 04/19/2025 (Sat) 11:17:59 Id: c1e91a No. 1145712 [Reply]
It's gonna be a specific thread, but bear with me. Basically, I'm looking for more games with the whole "mercenaries doing mercenary things" aesthetic, with people dropping into areas of conflict for a huge paycheck, and perhaps to end in the cover of the Soldier of Fortune magazine (which also had a video game that I liked a lot). Recently, I decided to play Jagged Alliance 2 for the first time. While I'm still learning the game's mechanics, I'm having fun with it, controlling a bunch of guns for hire with distinct personalities and skills, shooting nigs and be paid in handsomely for it. There were also other action games like Mercenaries, where you could buy airstrikes to bomb well guarded areas. I basically just want games where the setting is a bit like an action flick about poeple who made warfare their job.

>>1234746 I still do with Bannerlord, I spent like 100 hours in a week on that. The late game in Warband was also ass, and that's to say nothing of the original 2008 release. The main issue is that the management aspect is too random for you to get any meaningful progress in painting the map outside blobbing all your units by wasting Renown.
I really liked being on horse and swinging the Executioner Axe. I am fucking terrible at tactics in these games, but there's a catharsis this game provides in turning a dozen of supposed proud warriors into feed for carrion that nothing else truly scratches.
