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.

>>1244194 Would have been a lot better if they didn't just treat it as a tech demo. So many neat features in an undercooked game. >>1145839 Not amazing, but not bad either. I never tried the sequels though. Definitely more fun in co-op. >>1158486 I enjoyed blasting shit too much to try stealth. That and I liked the voice actor they had for Mattias. Next time I replay it, I'll have to try her out.

>>1146426 >>1145784 >>1145984 These games have nothing in common. They are just You vs an entire army type game. Infact I say pic related satisfies that requirement more than yours RIP Pandemic studios

Play Vikangz Conquest, niggers.
>>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.

It was just a board to roughly recreate the late 2000s-early 2010s era of 4/mu/, mixture of anons and the occasional tripfag. ARF was probably as close to successfully recreating The Dicklick Brigade in terms of consistently posting abject aural shitposts, amateur flailing, and the rare crystal of competency. IMO, later 4/mu/ projects switched erratically from undercooked WIPs with a meme sample or two, to annoyingly self-serious bullshit like The Meme Friends. I would post a link or an image, but one can just search the name up on RYM and get a result. Most chanboard music projects didn't really get much notability beyond The Death of Pablo.

I fell for the meme and thought they just made movie games but after bingeing their catalog I think they might make some of the best third person shooters around. Amazingly paced with great arena and encounter design, especially in Uncharted where the scavenging around for different weapons was a big focus. If anything I got kinda sad after exhausting all the content in their games cause nothing else really scratches the same itch at all.

>>1293265 It does seem to still be updated, however there are some FAQ bits (on Discord - I'm so fucking sick of Discords being the primary vector for accessing projects, especially fan/free ones. Toss it on github or another git service, offer a torrent etc. Discovery of a project is garbage when its in a Discord primarily. If it wasn't for someone updating that Steam Group with active invites etc.. it would be hard to find it at all! ) that show it has added new content. Unfortunately, it appears that >Chapters 9, 10, and 11 >Simon, Yoko, Fuma characters claim to be not included because apparently some previous dev working on them left, got DMCA'd or otherwise took it all with them. Is there any effort to remake what was lost? I'm glad its still updated and there's new custom content beyond the original game, but I'd think it would be imperative to see about trying to get the missing chapters and then characters back.?
>>1291319 Circle of the Moon also has a function where it shows when attempting to strike an enemy that drops a particular card, as well as an index of ability combinations. I've not played Dominus Collection yet as I'm working through Advance, but it really does seem to be the "definitive" way to play the games and they've added a fair bit of QoL features as bonuses like what we mentioned.
>>1303178 >Is there any effort to remake what was lost? The people left in the project have no idea how the project works; they are trying to reverse engineer it, but to no avail. It makes a lot more sense to just fresh-start the project in some other engine, or the same engine. Basically, yes, the people left are incredibly incompetent or at least they simply lack the experience or knowledge to know how to fix the damn thing. Which also means: >Toss it on github or another git service, offer a torrent etc Github is one of the most counterintuitive pieces of software I've seen in my whole life, and that's coming from someone using it daily for projects. So if they can't figure out how the game works, I very much doubt they may know how GitHub works.

Xbox embracing $80 games and $600 dollar hardware - Price increases globally. Anonymous 05/01/2025 (Thu) 13:56:18 Id: 5da729 No. 1296378 [Reply] [Last]
>With games hitting a maximum of $80 later in the year, Microsoft sources confirmed to me that, games will still be priced on a scale to reflect their scope, as is the case today. Smaller games could still come in at $50 or less, for example, while AAA big-budget titles like a new Call of Duty are doubtlessly going to hit that maximum price tier. https://www.windowscentral.com/gaming/xbox/microsoft-reveals-global-xbox-price-increases-for-consoles-accessories-and-even-games

Here are some of my favorite reactions in the game. I am so happy I finished 428 and the Time Travelers 3DS fan-translation a couple months ago. These aren't spoilers of the game, just avoiding possible spoiling some funny scenes in general.
I don't know why they are using this site instead of kickstarter. But I hope it does well enough.

How would you go about designing it?

They keep nerfing champions that use mana. Mobi's should've been buffed, not nerfed. Anyway I've been playing since the start of season 2 and I've gone from Emerald 4 to Emerald 2. Only had one game so far that made me go, "Damn, these players are good". I was playing Taric support, landed a very close flash+stun on a Janna near her tower, Lux and Jinx were rotating but still a quarter of the map away. As soon as I landed the stun, 1 second later, Lux ult, then right after, Jinx ult lands. We got the kill. Had to ask who are you people.
