>>2060742 Arguably even before the collapse, the Federation had become a slowly building apocalypse. Their science had created some absolute monsters. >>2061026 If you don't count it as part of the War in Heaven, there was the enslaver plague in the ancient past.

>>2060739 >Apocalyptic events in 40k >War in Heaven (Apocalyptic for the Old Ones and arguably the C'tan, created the Eldar, Orks, and Necrons, also might have birthed Chaos) >Rebellion of the Men of Iron (Apocalyptic in scale, was so horrible that AI was banned afterwards unless you count Nu-Squat lore) >Fall of the Eldar and the Dark Age of Technology (Created Slaanesh and lead to the downfall of the Eldar empire, also cut humanity off from all it's colonies) >Great Crusade and especially the war against the Rangda (Wiped out a lot of post fall human empires and minor xenos, but the Rangda gave as good as they got and took multiple legions to take down) >The Horus Heresy (The big one for the Imperium) >The war of the Beast (Still somewhat canon even if it's stupid in places, proof Orks are more than just comic relief) >The coming of the Tyranids (As explained later, but especially the Octarius War showing that Tyranids and Orks can fight each other to a standstill with both sides growing stronger and stronger, and no matter who wins the Galaxy loses.) >The Fall of Cadia and the Great Rift (Half the Imperium cut off from the other half and free reign for Chaos to raid, not to mention Magnus and Mortarion making empires in Realspace. So that's at least 8

I am going to play god eater as well but something I noticed is that its the game this woman is from. She was super popular around 2015. disappeared after that. I wonder why.

https://voca.ro/1hW6SDRq9RyR I have no idea where else to post this, I wouldn't even call it complete

Is the 100 player server back up? It went down yesterday

>>2010891 Dick thieves better leave Heavy alone >>1601294 I've heard people complain about Deadlock because it's too focused on the special abilities instead of gun fights. Thankfully TF2 doesn't suffer from that.

>>1817647 Lance's limit breaks in 3 suck ass, even at max upgrade and favorable weapon and element weakness it does less damage than his normal spells

There was this racing game game that was pretty much "Audiosurf but flash", named Vector (something). Highly recommended.

Can't beat the classics

>>2070817 Third game's got a patch now, iirc it still lacks subs on cutscenes but the rest is TLed.

>>2071867 Thats nice, hope it relases sometime soon so that i can play through the trilogy

>>2071125 >I am unsure where you saw anger in that Anon, this is /v/!

>>2070271 Guess it's time to recall what I've played over the past year Last title was yakuza 1, plenty of fun but haven't gotten myself to go farther than the opening cutecene and graveyard section of the second one yet Prior to yakuza my focus was on ps1 racers, specifically ridge racer, rage racer and mille miglia The first title was gta 4 together with it's dlcs, this kept me occupied for a long time

Let's see what I can remember >The Legend of Zelda: Echoes of Wisdom Pretty good top-down Zelda game. My favorite maybe since the Oracle games, actually. And I generally prefer top-down Zelda. A bit too easy, and I actually wish they used the gimmick of the game not intending you to do combat yourself more. Letting you switch forms, even if somewhat limited, made it too easy. Still pretty great though. >Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Never played this until now. Got it for my birthday and beat World of Light, which was cool, but it was no Subspace Emissary. Aside from that it's Smash Bros. with more characters. I'm not enough of a smelly pedophile to care about the differences beyond that, but Smash Bros. with more characters is cool. >Sonic Origins Plus >Both versions of Sonic Spinball Also got this for my birthday. I wanted a collection like this for years but refused to buy it because the physical edition actually had a bunch of the content as free DLC instead of on the cart. Bullshit. But it's a fine collection. I know people bitched but if I wasn't taking bad business practices into account I'd have no major complaints. I just wish Sonic Spinball and 3D Blast were included. And Chaotix. And R. (Yeah it's Saturn but it's the last Classic Sonic game). They included the Game Gear version of Spinball but not the Genesis version. Anyway the collection gave me an excuse to actually beat the Game Gear version, which sucks, but I did it. And actually before I did that it motivated me to go and beat the Genesis version, which I have enjoyed since I was a kid but could never beat until now. The game is way too hard, especially the final boss. But now I did it, and then I even beat the shitty Game Gear version which actually has a few sections (including bosses) which are pretty different. Also of course beat the rest of the games in Origins Plus, but I had done that before. I guess I hadn't beaten them with all the new character options though. Tails and Knuckles in Sonic 1, Knuckles in Sonic CD, Amy in everything. Kinda cool. I could have beaten many more games this year if I hadn't beaten all the classic Sonic games like five times each. >Sonic Colors (DS) >Sonic Generations (DS) Underrated games. They're Sonic Rush 3 and 4, and people like Sonic Rush, so I don't get why they ignore these. In fact, I'd say these are better than Sonic Rush, but not better than Rush Adventure. Not even close. But still, pretty good.

>>2069046 >>2069061 especially since half chan keeps banning anyone that makes a thread about it. Steam might not even allow its release because of all the cum . I doubt they'd pick a fight with Capcom but gabe doesnt give a shit, his retards will still but his slop and clap while he buys another billion dollar yatch >picrel women votes do not matter. cancel women

>>2069061 >This game with all the coomers, gooners, loli, furries, normies ... all have a common interest. One side will identify themselves as the little girl because they're a bunch of sorry ass manchildren, the other wants to wear the little girl's skin and pretend they're preschoolers while getting fucked in the ass. It'll be a fucking insta-cult classic, guarantee.

I hope between Pragmata and Onirism that this kicks of a little girl game revolution in vidya.

>>2066614 best to start with 4U/GenU to wean off how post World-Iceborne gameplay changed it then get back to playing FU on the PSP. G's only good if you've played any classic MonHun games before

I encountered something strange today in Rise. >HR 3 enters the lobby >Party member posts quest at his level and invites him to join >He asks "how?" >Thought it was weird that he ranked up at least twice without learning how the quest board works but explain it to him anyway >Quest begins >He runs to the wrong monster alone, cuts off its tail, breaks a bunch of pieces, kills it within 20 seconds of encountering it >Look at his equipment >Default sword with blast element and 50,000 attack power >He plays dumb about the whole thing, pretends nothing is out of the ordinary Is this guy cheating? Is there some pay-to-win gear available somehow? What's going on here?

>>2070279 >Is this guy cheating? Yep. >Is there some pay-to-win gear available somehow? Nope. The closest thing is the welfare gear that Capcom releases with each expansion (roughly equivalent to endgame sets) and which lets you bulldoze through the base game to get to the DLC. I can't remember what it is in Rise but in World it's Defender gear. >What's going on here? He's cheating. Cheating is piss-easy in MH, but there are, broadly, two kinds of cheater. The first and less common one is like the one you described; they give themselves insanely OP gear and go clear quests in thirty seconds. This is stupid and gay. The second and vastly more common type are people who use cheat engine as a content unlocker to give themselves unavailable FOMO items and microtransactions because fuck Crapcom for having the absolute chutzpah to ask you to pay $5 for emotes and it's not like they can do anything about it anyway. Between the two are charms; on the one hand you have people who say that charm farming and fishing for that last little bit to fully optimize your build is part of the game and other people who say "I'm not about to spend 50 hours grinding the same quest over and over again for an RNG item" and who give themselves godroll charms to skip the grind. As far as I'm concerned both sides have a point so make up your own mind.

There are two historic reasons for unions: 1) Firm management are being comic-book villain levels of evil by making the work unsafe (government regulations has fixed this) or keeping the field chronically underpaid (replacement migration has enabled this, but unions won't fix it). 2) Negotiating increases to the pay scale commensurate with the inflation rate so the value of the job's labor stays somewhat uniform. That's it. Anything else is grift and corruption. When videogames became a really big and bloated industry, the undertalented faggot nerds who grew up wanting to be involved in its development need to create mechanisms so they can't be shitcanned easily. That, to me, is corruption. Wanting moderation jannies, voice actors, and fucking QA testers that do the work of monkey to be categorized as developers is more of the same. Create more pork positions these niggerfaggots can secure for themselves and their friends.

>>1990895 Well yeah, the entire union push was really started by Jason Schreier and how he tries to push that onto the rest of the industry. The guy is a corrupt weasel through and through.

Unions are a textbook definition honeypot for creating an artificial labor aristocracy. One can even see this in North American film production in how centralized and concentrated connections that still dips right into tax credits and tax breaks in specific places like Georgia or Vancouver. Been also hearing that politicians are also trying to repeat this with giving tax breaks for Netflix and others to create production studios in New Mexico. And no, the image of egalitarianism and equality for all is a long-outdated fabrication from the 1960's that the parents of boomers fell for. One can really see the true colors if one asks the more "radical" side how they feel about police unions. Some will try to argue that it's not the same, but police unions are both mechanically and functionally indistinguishable from an organization like SAG-AFTRA or AFSCME.

Sometime next year I'll do one more FE12 H4 ironman, this time without reclassing. This will make the earlygame a lot harder but it should still be manageable if I feed Kris stat boosters. Eventually I should end up with a decent team. I made images to summarize my unit recommendations for H3 and H4, in case anyone is planning on playing FE12. Some brief explanations >Kris H3: It's nice to have a high defense unit and you don't have many options for axe users so I recommend knight -> pirate -> general -> berserker. In H4 he's even better because he can reclass to dracoknight. >Catria I make her a second juggernaut, ending as a paladin. >Staff users Merric can double as a combat unit, the rest are staffbots. I usually train an extra staff user to at least B rank before benching, just in case. >Caeda Needs energy drops but is otherwise great as a sniper. High luck + supports allow her to face enemies with killer weapons. In H3 you'll want her to do dracoknight stuff sometimes, e.g. chapter 19, whereas in H4 Kris can cover that. >Palla If she promotes at level ~15 for chapter 7 she can stay on your endgame team as a dracoknight or swordmaster. Or you can bench her later on to make room for someone else. <H3 >Ogma

And then they had a fierce "swordfight" together ❤️

Playing through Pokemon Colosseum for the first time. I have to say, it's a lot better than I expected. I'd thought that the relative lack of catchable Pokemon would detract from the experience, but it's actually been the opposite: you have to think about how to make the most out of the limited pool of Pokemon you have on offer at any given point. Catching opportunities feel a lot more tense as well, though Shadow Pokemon suiciding is annoying. Additionally: more Pokemon games need cute extremely breedable human companions

>>2029997 >you have to think about how to make the most out of the limited pool of Pokemon you have on offer at any given point. Catching opportunities feel a lot more tense as well, A very overlooked aspect of these games outside competitive. Unlike in many other party based rpgs, team composition is especially important for utilitarian progression such as puzzle solving and gear farming in the main game. There are a few instances of utility such as HM moves, hoard battle EV & EXP farming, and even hunting for some rare Pokemon. What is it with Pokemon where it feels more cumbersome to have party member with utilitarian based abilities outside of combat? >>2008212 >Shortstack Tinkaton. One of the reasons why I like that little dwarf pokemon.

I thought this MMV was very good so I wanted to share it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2JqwKm2lWrM

>>2065336 >holy fuck i wasn't aware It's very subtle since she's early in her growth. >but that smile just makes me want to cuddle with her and pat her head I don't know if a loli being that pure and lovable is just that rare or if my mind is too clouded by the laughter I gain from the perverts; Io, Andira, and Bai.

>>2065392 >>2065336 Yeah, Yaia is really cute and huggable and it greatly overrides the horny factor. Can't see why people wouldn't find charm in her and just hate on her because "oppai loli", but I've seen dumber things so it is to be expected. Same with hate on short races in general because "muh pedos", just find such arguments dumb. Really hope such debates don't flare up. >>2062659 >kernal level anti cheat Can't blame them for this one, though it seems an odd inclusion at a glance, moving some of the applications functions and data to truly clientside rather than it all being web-based means extra security measures are needed to mitigate cheating. Also probably a legal/shareholder thing more than a protection thing. Old fart shareholders can't into security so don't understand how unnecessary kernel-level protections are for most games, and just demand them anyway because everyone else has them and see them as a security standard. The only thing I really don't get about this steam port is mandating new accounts when it's going to have parity with the existing version. Makes no sense.

250/300 draws on the current spark and its going so poorly i'm dying inside.

>>2066491 Is there a particular reason why you picked the DS version of Devil Survivor instead of the 3DS one, or was it just the first image you found?

There are tons of other games I could name, but these ones have a solid place in my heart. I’ve replayed them countless times, listened to the soundtracks hundreds of times, and played them during certain pivotal moments in my life that I still remember crystal clear to this day.

>>2067575 I didn't really think about it since I generally group the versions together. I'm a bit more familiar with the DS version and my most recent playthrough was on DS so that version came to mind first, but the next time a thread like this comes along I might post the 3DS version. Similarly with Ninja Gaiden I sometimes replay Black and sometimes replay Sigma.

4jeet keeps deleting these threads, fucking sucks because it was a decent study group compared to pisscord troons.

I don't play a lot of shmups but I recently got hooked on Thunder Force IV. I feel like it's a game that holds more appeal to casual players like me than it does for dedicated shmup experts, since it doesn't require you to react quickly or to make precise movements. The screen is rarely covered with tons of bullets. Slowdown can be an issue depending on the version of the game you're playing. TFIV has a good variety of stages where you blast through a constant flood of enemies, switching between five weapon powerups to use the optimal weapon for each situation (the basic twin shot is also relatively competent, if you lose the associated upgrade). Some stages have obstacles to move around and other gimmicks that add variety. Not only do you need to move all around the screen, the screen itself scrolls up and down in some stages as you move. I liked the process of gradually figuring out which route I wanted to take through the stages and how to approach the enemies. The boss fights were also pretty cool. I guess I can't really convey why it feels good to play through text, anything I write sounds pretty typical but I found this game particularly addictive. I went from struggling through normal mode to 1ccing maniac and never got tired of the game along the way. TFIV is very generous in giving the player extra lives and 3-hit shields (maniac mode even gives you two more shields than hard mode, imo it's a bit too much). Even if you die and lose the ideal powerup for a situation there are usually other viable options. I went with the stage order 2 -> 1 -> 4 -> 3. On hard mode this is by far the best but on maniac it's arguably better to play stage 1 first to pick up useful powerups that make stage 2 easier. Still, I prefer to frontload the difficulty and it gives me a reason to use Snake in stage 2. This stage order relies on a couple hidden powerups there's a hidden shield in stage 2 (top of stage immediately after missile pods first appear from background) and there's a hidden Free Way at the start of the underwater sequence in stage 1 (immediately move to the bottom right) Overall I think it's a good game, and while I doubt it holds the same appeal for shmup experts I think most people would enjoy flying through the stages and blowing stuff up. And the music is great.
