Squilliam compilation thread – The End of E3gelion Anonymous 06/10/2024 (Mon) 03:39:45 Id: ed8325 No. 978559 [Reply] [Last]
> -1085 days until E3 Since it's summertime and E3 is officially dead and buried, I'm making one final Squilliam compilation video. Any Squilliam ideas you've been sitting on, this is your chance to get them in. Let's take a moment to remember the time every studio used to gather in one place to present their latest and greatest, before everyone started holding their own little conference no one cares about. If you have any memorable moments of past E3s, good or bad, post them in this thread. For old time's sake and so I can put some of it into the video. >I'm a newfag and what is this? It's been an 8chan tradition to make OC from a template based on Squilliam from Spongebob getting a heart attack. Download a template, open it in your favorite drawing/editing software and go nuts. When you're done, post it here (in a reply to the right anchor post to help me keep track of it). >How long do I have? I'm aiming for Sunday the 23rd of June as submission deadline, the video will be released sometime after that. >Can [board] on the webring participate? Of course! Whether it's a video game board, or just a hangout board interested in making OC. All I ask is that you help me find it by cross-posting your stuff here and linking it to the proper anchors. Feel free to share in your post what board you're representing. >What song are you going to use? Walk Away by Dokken >Is there gonna be a mosaic? Yes, see the later post. Try to make your squares E3-related if you can, this is about the death of E3, after all. >Are we never gonna see another compilation again? You probably will, I hope to make another one with a new template next year. I'm not making any promises, however.

MONSTER HUNTER THREAD: (Breath of the) Wilds Edition. Anonymous 10/29/2024 (Tue) 06:51:04 Id: 6c0959 No. 1032729 [Reply] [Last]
So the beta for MonHun Wilds is out and I've played it. It's OK. I'm not a hardcore Monster Hunter fan, I only played World and Rise up to the end of the story and didn't go for any post-game content, but this is way more casual-friendly than the previous entries. The camera now locks on to the monster instead of just centering on them for a split second. I could spam attacks with dual blades and interrupt at a moment's notice with the dodge roll, so I didn't have to pace my button presses. The wound feature is pretty cool. Basically you just attack one body part over and over until it glows red, then enter focus mode with L2 and press R1, and you do a super move on it. Focus mode lets you basically strafe and finely aim your attacks like it's a third-person shooter. The new support creature, the seikret, is cool. It automatically follows the monster's scent once you're on it so tracking the monster is now piss-easy. I only did the first hunt against the giant toad, I turned it off after that. There is another hunt you can do afterwards but I wanted to get back to the Romancing Saga 2 remake. Overall, I think I would play it. I expect hardcore MonHun fans will be pissed at how baby-mode it is now though. I'm nowhere near a seasoned veteran and I played it just like Dark Souls and that worked fine for me. YMMV.

Ports that are completely different games Anonymous 03/25/2025 (Tue) 16:29:20 Id: 150ba4 No. 1082590 [Reply]
A really interesting phenomenon prominent during the 2000s, but existed outside of it. It wasn't uncommon for a game to launch on 5-7 different platforms with each version being a completely different game, this was especially common for tie-in games. Though I'm less interested in that, and more interested in the games that were something else entirely. Be it a different campaign like Quake 2 N64, or just an entirely original game like the GBA Daikatana Zelda-like. I'd like to hear about more of these I'm unaware of.

>>1082759 Then I'm thinking of the other sequel to Jurassic Park that wasn't The Lost World. I must have been thinking of The Chaos Continues. That's the good one. Would The Chaos Continues count as sort of like a port of Rampage Edition? Would Turtles in Time count as sort of the same game as Hyperstone Heist?
>>1082773 Rampage Edition was it's own thing and it's good
Dragon Quest XI for 3DS seems to be more soulful than the UE hogwash than the main game is. Too bad there's no english patch for it.

>>1075935 Update I've gotten to Drangleic, and I'm now doing the Sunken King DLC. I take back everything I said, dogshit hitboxes, absolutely shit level and game design and doesn't even clue you in where you need to go or where to get some items and most late game stuff is absolutely awful unless you're using Faith/Magic.
>>1081917 Here I am, sitting around in some damn fog waiting for this shit to blow over. Damn it’s been a day, and then I get this garbage dropped on me. Well, best to start from where I left off, God knows I’ve got plenty of time to kill. So, after a short rest near that collapsed tunnel, I took the truck and drove back into that small town. Figured I’d look for more supplies, medical supplies mostly and see if I can find some kind of pocketknife or kitchen knife. No such luck, but I saw the most peculiar thing, a burning one of those fuckers. Shot at him and he exploded. Damn glad I didn’t try to engage him with that pitchfork. Guess I’ll keep that in mind if I see any similar freaks like that. With not much to be found outside of some more food supplies, I went onward down the road to whatever I would find. At least I have Roger to keep me company in these trying times, certainly better company than any of these macacos could ever be. And find something I did. Came to some kind of larger city, though it wouldn’t be so easy getting in. Saw a police barricade out front… thankfully no local cops though, living ones at least. Blew one of the bastard’s head off with a shotgun, he also had a damn gun still in the holster on his belt, very useful. With my new firearm and some bullets I found, I began searching the town. Man this place had a lot of useful stuff, but was rather large. First I went to some café and found a knife behind the counter. Finally, something those damn monkeys didn’t steal to weaponize against each other or the undead, it was a bit dull though. Went to search a smaller clinic next, found some painkillers and some sleeping pills, useful for later, though I swore these things off a long time ago, I won’t hit rock bottom again if I can help it. Then raided the police precinct, nothing but corpses and even stranger walking corpses. One of the damn cops turned near-invisible and tried to dart around me. Another tried to spit some garbage at me. Took care of them both but it was awful and got hit pretty hard. Nothing some painkillers couldn’t fix though. I also found a helicopter, though it seemed to have no fuel. Had half a mind to take it and fly off, but I don’t know how to fly a helicopter for one, and for two I wouldn’t know where to go or which way to fly, and no guarantee I could take enough to last out there in such a thing. Might come back there later though, it’s a useful thing. Kept up my searching and ran across a fast food place… big J’s or something? I saw a zombie making damn burgers in there, not even a joke. Maybe they keep some muscle memory from when they were alive? It makes no difference to me though, maybe even makes it even better for how awful it was to deal with these subhumans while alive. Not a half bad burger either. Eventually came across a museum too, seems people took shelter here and got overrun, the main generator was fried but found a portable generator and took it back to the truck. Sun was starting to go down, but got a great view of the bay with a wrecked ship out there. Might investigate it at a later day. With how late it was getting, I figured it was time to travel through and out of the town, and that’s when shit hit the fan. The fog came. As night fell, a chilling fog rolled in. If I wasn’t in a damn horror movie already, I was sure in one now. The undead I could see gained strange red eyes, piercing through the fog. They also became much more restless. I sped through town, not keen to stick around amidst the louder groans and wails I kept hearing. Truly awful stuff, makes me worried what exactly this phenomenon is. I’m sure it will pass with time though, but here I am waiting a good ways down the road, hoping this weather passes soon. I’m sure it will, but I don’t want to tangle with those walking corpses when they’re like that. Maybe that’s what took out those people holing up in the museum? Who knows? I’m certainly not sticking around to find out. With this time to kill I set up the portable generator properly, anchored it to the truck so it won’t slide around in the bed, guess I can use it as a spare gas tank for now. Hope this fog clears up soon. If it takes too long I’ll just get some damned sleep.

Finally have the change to play Rusty for the PC-98. Really good game if you haven't tried it yet. Reminds me a lot of Rondo of Blood which is funny considering this game came out before Rondo. Been using a Sega Genesis controller to play this game it feels perfect. Have yet to complete it considering how bad I am at the game for being an impatient fuck.

Valve has just released the source code for Team Fortress 2 Anonymous 02/19/2025 (Wed) 00:11:55 Id: 52877f No. 1072658 [Reply] [Last]
Not sure if anyone here still actively played TF2, but this news is HUGE. Basically Valve has just released the source code for Team Fortress 2, making mods that much more interesting. They also updated the game with a bunch of fixes and features. Personally, I hope this leads to having servers that can go over 64 playable characters for maximum chaos, although I'm not a game developer/modder, so I don't really know how these things work. articles in question: https://www.teamfortress.com/post.php?id=238809 https://steamcommunity.com/games/TF2/announcements/detail/511824321138655315

NIHON FALCOM THREAD: Forward Relentlessly Edition Anonymous 11/18/2023 (Sat) 02:48:20 Id: 3d9289 No. 908347 [Reply] [Last]
I was hoping to make it to the shareholders meeting before the old thread got bumped off but it looks like we'll miss it by a couple of weeks. >Latest News -Falcom's 2024 title is all but confirmed to be Kuro No Kiseki 3. We don't have a title or any details yet, though, and likely won't until the shareholder's meeting in December. -Ys X released on Playstation systems and Switch. As of now, no PC announcement has been made. CLE likely will make one going by their track record, but who's to say when. Durante and his team will eventually make one too, as the norm is now for them to release the Japanese PC version and patch in the localization later. Either way, we likely won't see fan translation efforts until a PC version materializes. Thankfully, the Switch version will at least mean easy access to the Japanese script, which was a major problem when trying to translate Kuro 2. Speaking of... -Kuro no Kiseki 2 has had it's main and sub scenarios translated. That is to say, main quest, side quests, events noted on the map and connect events. Most NPCs are still machine translated. This is following Kuro no Kiseki 1 which was completely translated down to the last NPC. This was all done before NISA even officially announced their Kuro localization. As long as they remain three years behind, this should stay the norm. >Fan-translations Kuro no Kiseki 1 Translation: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1nN-39bcBkES4Wg-3-rGlRqTARuQhGybB?usp=sharing Kuro no Kiseki 2 Translation: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/120XMXZinIOWUvzyFZj4bZRYBSoZGMChO?usp=drive_link Hajimari no Kiseki Translation (NPCs incomplete.

Games where you play as a Merchant Anonymous 03/19/2025 (Wed) 20:35:26 Id: 07e6fa No. 1080891 [Reply] >>1082576
Games where you engage in mercantile activities, preferably fantasy/historical rather than modern businessman shit. Not the same type of fantasy. Recettear is a pretty classic example and involves you running a shop in a fantasy JRPG world. Port Royale 2 is a great game set in the Carribean where you play as a merchant/Privateer going around the Carribean selling shit to different towns and nations, engaging in wars, hunting pirates etc. Unfortunately, it does not really allow you to be a pirate. The economy is pretty complex from what I've seen and many games do not get to the same level as this one.

Xenoblade Thread: You will know that Xenoblade X leaked Anonymous 03/14/2025 (Fri) 21:21:04 Id: 0c0d80 No. 1079549 [Reply] [Last]
Wanted to make a quick thread considering that Xenoblade X just leaked out and that Xenoblade 4 is an inevitability considering how successful the series was on the OG Switch. I do wonder how they'll approach the series going forward and if they'll just build on top of Xenoblade X instead of the Klaus trilogy. Perhaps we'll get Xenoblade X2 rather than Xenoblade 4 all things considered. Either way I've heavily enjoyed this series and look forward to see where Nintendo and Monolith Soft take this series. Especially now where we've reached a point where the story of Klaus is basically finished and that the series will basically have to do what the original Xenoblade did. Should be interesting to see what happens. >Favorite Xeno Game >Favorite Waifu >Favorite port

I'll assume we're self-aware here, enough to know when we have personal bias when it comes to games we played in our youth. You might hear a game you enjoyed is considered not that great, or even outright bad by the majority of people. Perhaps you can understand that point of view, and see they make correct points, even if those points aren't enough to detract from your own personal enjoyment. That's how it is for me at least. Growing up I enjoyed a lot of games that wouldn't be considered worth playing now, but I open this thread not quite talking about your own personal growth in terms of how you view games, but to consider the people who can't do that. The people who still grasp their Nostalgic memories and view them as objective fact. >I loved it when I was 7 so that means it's a masterpeice. I thought about this topic since I was playing the recent Star Wars Bounty Hunter PC port. Now I enjoy Bounter Hunter so I thought sure I'll give it a go again, but unsurprisingly, being a 2002 Star Wars Attack of the Clones Tie in game, it's a bit rough around the edges. Even back in 2002 it wasn't a game to be impressed by save for the fact Jango Fett managed to look cool, but it's a medicore game without much replayability. Hence why I haven't replayed this game in over a decade possibly two decades even. It's still about as enjoyable as when I first played it, so not like i'm disappointed. But for whatever reason I looked at the Steam Reviews and came across first pic related. >"Absolute Masterpiece" Fucking Bounty Hunter of all games is a Masterpiece to this guy? Is this the only game he has ever played? Does he have no higher standards? Did he Jerk off to the Sith final boss chick a lot? No clue. His Steam profile is Private, so can't even judge him for more beyond this one review. That's all we got to go on. This made me think I've seen this kind of thing Numerous times, over the years. You find a youtube video covering just about any game that's old enough, you're gonna find 1 guy who says >"Now this game was epic, They need to remake it! And it'll be something like fucking Disney's Tarzan on the PS1... in fact... Yeah, 4th pic related. Talking about Tarzan on PS1. >Best Classic game I think it's a bit of an interesting Phenomenon, the unfiltered unrefined thoughts of a random person that Highly praises something that's not worthy of such high praise. Really it's harmless, but you can't help but question it. When it's possible, a person might be willing to die on a mole hill if you were to challenge them, because they don't know any better.

However that's not going to stop a lot of shills or coping Progressivesfrom from declaring that you're "remembering things wrong" because they cannot allow people to remember that things used to be better. Because we're suppose to be "moving forward", so any attempt to point out that standards have regressed destroys their narrative of "toxic positivity" about how much "better" things are in CY+8. Now I'm not saying that "everything" has regressed, there are some aspects about today that are far better than as recently as a decade ago, just that a lot of metrics have regressed on what's deemed to be "acceptable".

>>1082367 >there are some aspects about today that are far better than as recently as a decade ago Like what? Do you realize a decade ago was only 2015? The last thing I can think of that legitimately seems pretty convenient is cell phones. Not smartphones, cell phones. But even then, I remember an era before cell phones, and everything was fine. Maybe better. Video games sure haven't gotten better since the popularization of the cell phone in the early 2000s. I guess I have to assume medicine has gotten better, but with the coronavirus, maybe not. The internet? That sure as fuck hasn't gotten better. That peaked in 2007 at the latest. >>1082401 This. Somehow when I was a kid I missed out on games like Zelda and Castlevania. Decades later I went back to them, and it was such a great feeling to have games that were new to me, yet worked with the trends and styles of their eras. It was even better, because instead of waiting years for each one, I could play dozens in a row. It was great. By finding good old games, I can almost travel back in time to the eras they're from.

How does the diceroll work? Anonymous 03/19/2025 (Wed) 20:54:22 Id: 276c9d No. 1080894 [Reply] >>1081054 >>1082372
Simple question. Take your favourite RPG and tell me how the to-hit roll works. You may also tell me how the damage works if you can. I have been thinking a lot about this lately. Most Games do not explain to you exactly how the dice works. The reason I started thinking about this lately is my recent run of Kotor 1. First time i played the game it was pretty hard, Second time though was after I had started TTRPGs and this time I actually knew how the dice works. I know that 2-16 is just 2d8 damage (which is also what a lightsaber does in star wars:sagas). I know that a +1 to will/fortitude/reflex saves is actually really good. It completely changed everything and made the game so much easier to play. Now however I am just wondering why other RPGs do not explain the dicerolls. Every TTRPG will explain what a d20 is but most videogames wont tell you exactly what the strength stat does. For any dragon age fans, can you tell me what 40 strength means? Probably not, I can tell you what 20 strength means in D&D though. On top of that I am also wondering why video games wont tell you what the campaign is focused on. I am sure you have experienced a game that requires 1 stat more than any, quite frustrating having to make new characters. On the contrary, Most DMs that I have played with will tell you what their campaign is going to be about and what characters you should and shouldn't make. When you roll a new character in fallout it doesn't tell you that it is going to a combat focused campaign.

>>1080894 >I know that 2-16 is just 2d8 damage But, do you really? Do you know that 2d8 means that your most likely roll is 9? That roughly one out of every ten rolls will either be a 8, 9, or 10 (independently)? That half of your rolls ought to be between 7 and 11 (inclusive)?
>>1081054 Yeah I do know that. The average of a dice can be calculated by adding together all the numbers and then dividing by the amount of numbers. So 1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8=36 36/8=4.5 So if we have 2 eight sided dice then we get 4.5x2 which is 9. You can also just take the number in the middle of the dice. The number between 4 and 5 in this case.

>>1080894 >Shadowrun You roll attribute + skill amount of dice. Note each dies result individually. Reroll 6's and add the new roll to the old result. You can rerol la single die multiple times if you get multiple 6's (so 6, then 6, then 3 would be a result of 15). Compare your dice roll to a target number. I.e. how many rolls do I have about target number of X. Number of success indicate greater degree of success. (more damag,e better dodge, more damage soaked, better prices in negotiation) Editions vary slightly on average target numbers, modifiers (and there is a lot of modifiers), and under which conditions 6's can be rerolled. >This is a sane system. >Some might say people play Shadowrun because, or in spite of, the system, but some ppl are pussies who can't do math.

Last thread is on page 12 and beyond the bump limit, but eroge marches steadily onward. Just at the beginning of this month, Monster Girl Quest:Paradox Part 3 finally released, making the game complete unless I missed something about them extending it to a 4th part. Available here, https://www.dlsite.com/maniax/work/=/product_id/RJ01114724.html I do not yet know where to pirate it, but I'm sure it will crop up one of my usual sites around when translation is finished. Still being actively translated, you can follow translation progress here, https://arzorx.wordpress.com/ Given Part 2 took 3 months from the date of release, I except this one take at least that long, if not at least 4 months, as it's larger. In the meanwhile, I'm sure there's anons learning JP that may still enjoy the game, or may even want to contact the current team to contribute to the translation in the coming months. Also mentioned at the end of the last thread and currently in development with a free demo is Princess Reconquista. Play a (totally not) Central/South American Princess and fight off your white (totally not) Spaniard conquerors in a pixelshit action game. Makes the mistake of losing being the method of accessing many scenes, but you can also tempt your enemies and watch other girls get BLEACHED. https://sorry-carl.itch.io/princess-reconquista Last thread >>819339 https://archive.is/CEm8b Someone else archived it just 8 hours ago. What a coincidence.

>>1080929 Not everything is rape but Corruptions of Champions? Though it might be more than you're bargaining for. It has a big modding community, I'm unfamiliar with it (only touched 2 mods) but you should check it out regardless.
>>1081166 Everyone knows CoC I think, I've tried it already a long time ago.
