>>2051794 That'll be cool when it releases in 2027.

>>2051445 That's exactly what I did, warding only, heavy emphasis on survaibility. I even used the valhahla chestplace mixed with spooky for endgame to take advantage of its improved defenses. The thing is that ultimately you still need to invest a lot on summoner-centered accessories (even if warded) which means you'll be playing a shittier true melee character with a mediocre DPS that just so happens to be passive (wow!) and that forces you to stay relatively closer to bosses due to the whips having a limited range, unlike with projectile-centered characters. Minions are really just worse projectiles that can't pierce enemies nor hit far away targets.

>>2053105 >passive Eh? Use a whip bro, the whip is pretty strong and most whips have a pretty strong secondary. Like the snapthorn puts a dot on enemies and the firecracker inflicts on fire and when a minion damages them they explode for extra damage. Durandal has the largest range of any whip, but I dun think it has a secondary effect. Not only do the whips grant your summons extra dmg but they're pretty fast and they can all benefit from autoswing, provided you have it turned on. If you don't, I would have to ask why not.

>>1905441 So that's why Sybert started casting a lot of Zero Hour matches?

Launchrails magnetized.

>>2051462 Theres's a Gauss on my tank

>>2044606 oh

>>2044064 >>2044088 I'm still optimistic for it, but I'm going to wait until they're early access. I liked the promotion for the Dark Ratatan they put out though.

>>1436662 Skip the MMOs for people meeting. Unless it's something really niche like >>1437892. I mean unless you're really, really into WoW or something? MMOs are a dying genre, almost all of them suck or have some bullshit quirk that's going to leave a nasty taste in your mouth and the people who play them these days are generally insufferable. You're making compromises before you even get into the game to find people you're probably going to hate. You can still find fun people in community servers or simple matchmaking games, but again, you want to go more niche and older. Anything current and popular is filled with bottom barrel trend chasing faggots. You won't have a good time.

>>2047076 MMOs also attract hyper autists and people who take things far too seriously. I've had a pretty fun time playing with and meeting people through Phasmophobia. Maybe it's something to do with only having up to four people and also needing a lot of communication to do well, but it seems to attract a fun demographic instead.

>>2047102 This is the way. Monster Hunter was like this. It still can be, but it suffers from it's success. If you can meet just one or two other people to play games together like this you have it made.

From https://x.com/KirbyInformer/status/2002040605476602068 >The latest Kirby Air Riders “Race to the Finish” event has been canceled. Once we have more details we will let you all know, but there is a bug that was causing matchmaking issues for the regular City Trial mode. The event will be rescheduled, but no date has been given. You could get a Santa hat in this event before they cancelled it, but they cancelled it after half a day, so I missed it. The event was supposed to last to the 26th.

>>2033036 got the hat >inb4 it's super rare because they never redo the event

>>2046005 https://x.com/KirbyAirRiderJP/status/2003344829208756224 The event changed, but the chance to get a Santa hat is back! I'm going to play right now. If I'm not mistaken, there's only one year of events planned, so they might repeat. But I'm not taking that risk.

Also I've recently discovered that the HD port of the first Donkey Kong Country Returns is trash, especially since it was rushed made by a small shitty company that makes nothing but shitty low budget games. Probably because said company was the cheapest for Nintendo. Meanwhile the Switch port of Tropical Freeze was made by Retro Studio themselves, which is why it's a great, faithful port.

They could at least make him like at the gag manga where he's slightly cutesy designed and goofy while still keeping his cool attitude from the DKC games.

>>2042974 >marrying everyone https://www.nexusmods.com/skyrimspecialedition/mods/21625

>>2044156 >switched engines Oh that's an absolute death knell for these kinds of projects. Especially when so much of its tech stack are Unreal plugins. From a brief look into it, they're creating their own engine because of issues with UE5. Were LeFay still alive I'd be very excited, he had a lot of experience writing bespoke engines, but with his passing the main tech devs on the team have never even shipped a game before, let alone written an engine.

>>2044745 >Oh that's an absolute death knell for these kinds of projects. Aside from 100% of Take-Two's management decisions, that's also what killed Kerbal Space Program 2. Specifically, switching BACK to the engine from the original, which had crippled the original game and made it impossible to implement the features 2 was initially being created to implement.

>>2000043 Forgot the archive link: https://archive.is/tV6Mx

One thing that's really retarded about normalfags view on the Vita and it's library is the whole "why would you want to play these games if they are on other systems" argument. The Vita does have a lot of ports from other systems on its library, but that's the whole appeal. It's a handheld console, for fucks sake. Normalfags don't complain about this when it comes to the PSP or the Switch. I understand why that is, since the Vita doesn't have big titles in regocnizable IP's which is why it's great but it's still the only system where you can play a lot of those titles portably while also still being able to fit it in your pocket. I hate normalfags so much it's unreal. >>2000043 >>2000057 I remember hearing about that for the first time too, it would've been a nice fit for a system. Speaking of games that would be a nice fit for the Vita, is there any titles that (You) wished got a Vita port/release? There's a few I wish would've gotten ported: >Ultra Street Fighter 4 >Tekken Tag Tournament 2 I get Namco was going through a rough financial phase, and Capcom already ported SFxT, but both of them would have been perfect on the go. >Ace Attorney (literally any of them) They would have looked great, and would go along nicely with the Dangan games. Same for: >Monster Hunter Stories >RE Revelations 1 >RE1make >RE 4 >Viewtiful Joe 1+2 >Okami >DMC (Although the lack of extra triggers would make this a bit hard, maybe just 1 would work)

>Have an autism becase of how much I just fucking hate Western localization shenanigans >Made it my job to go out of my way to specifically get Japanese versions of games >Download the Japanese version of Digimon: Cyber Sluts - Hacker's Memory to my Vita >Fire the game up >Discover the main menu offering the "option" to play the first game >Figure it's probably just some "Previously On..." option, like the digital comic in the PS3/WiiU versions of the Mass Effect sequels, of the catch-up videos seen in Tomb Raider Underworld >No, it's the full fucking game!!! >Wondering what's going on >Decide to look it up online >Turns out localizers managed to strike again https://archive.ph/um6WH <The story-select menu likely defaults to Hacker's Memory because this compilation actually was aimed towards people who played Cyber Sleuth first, at least initially (and the subsequent Switch and PC ports did nothing to change this). This game's history is a bit of a mess, but to break it down..... <Cyber Sleuth releases on the Vita in Japan. <Sony prematurely brushes the Vita off as a dead system in the west, causing Cyber Sleuth to be ported to the PS4 when it got localized (there was still a Vita localization, but it was digital-only). For a time, this PS4 port would be exclusive outside of Japan. <Hacker's Memory is released in Japan for the PS4 and Vita, with Cyber Sleuth included as a compilation. With this, Japan gets the PS4 version of Cyber Sleuth for the first time, and players of the original Vita Cyber Sleuth could use cloud saving to transfer their old data (and the whole compilation comes off being geared towards those veteran players as a result). <Hacker's Memory is released in the west for the PS4 (and digital-only Vita again), but it doesn't have Cyber Sleuth included. This robbed the west of features like being able to transfer Digimon between the two storylines in post-game, and being able to play Cyber Sleuth with the new Digimon and a few quality-of-life updates (though for what it's worth, they at least made it so you could complete the entire medal collection and get all evolution items in Hacker's Memory alone). <Complete Edition gets ported to the Switch worldwide and Steam outside of Japan (I have no clue why, but some Bandai Namco games on Steam, while technically available in the region, lack Japanese language support). This is essentially the compilation version of Hacker's Memory that Japan had on the Vita and PS4 all along. Hell, the Japanese Switch version doesn't it even call it "Complete Edition", since it is just a port (though, I'm guessing the reason the Playstation game was titled "Digimon Story: Cyber Sleuth - Hacker's Memory" wasn't so much because one was a side-story to the other, but more because it indicated both games in a collection, another thing that the western Playstation release sorta botched by keeping the title the same).

>>2044152 You skipped the conversation where I was already asked and explained this before. I already mentioned the gameplay is good, but gameplay isn't really what makes me be interested to finish games if everything else isn't at least a little bit decent. Also the first game was special for me for more reasons than just fun gameplay, it's not unreasonable to have expected the sequels to maintain that. I also forgot to talk about the soundtrack for Going Commando, I want to say its quality is similar to story, functional more than impressing. I have 3 R&C1 OSTs in my game OST playlist, I struggle to come up with one to add from Going Commando.

>>2044179 >You skipped the conversation oh I read that but I didn't know you were the same user. I got confused by the IDs being different. though I made several posts in this thread yet I have a new ID too so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I also loved the soundrack to Going Commando, but I'll agree that the soundtrack of 1 was better

>>2044346 >I got confused by the IDs I'm guilty of that too. In any case, I should find time to revisit the series in 2026 with Up Your Arsenal. I'll check back here then.

>>2039774 What don't you like about DMC3? It's literally one of the GOATs of the PS2 era

>>2044291 I don't think the game is bad or anything. I will say I did beat the Switch version with style switching so and other anons I meantioend this too said I should replay it without style switching, so I'll take their word for it. I really enjoy the combat and how free you are to experiment with it, but the main thing that's stopping me from loving it is the level design. Forgive me if I don't explain it the best, but I wish it leaned a bit more into the action parts over the adventure. DMC1 also had adventure elements, but I felt like it was better suited for that game since the combat didn't have as much going on (as well as what >>2041743 mentioned). The combat of 3 is the best part of it, and I wish the level design made you experiment and adjust to it more with more frequent encounters instead of going from light puzzle solving and light backtracking to combat arenas. Basically I wish it was more like a beat em up. And a little shorter.

>>2044417 Understood, I was just asking out of my own curiosity.

Outside of CSRIN is there any good site to pirate DLC content for use with creamapi?

>>1476937 >Sony Vegas Most certainly Rutracker is the best choice, just type it in search. But one of the version i use takes control of your mouse to input keygen, and that can be blocked by antivirus. Other than that for manual cracking consider what's here: https://1337x.to/search/sony+vegas/1/

>>1601832 >>1601837 appreciate these anon thank you

>>2028487 Won't they just use the same engine?

>>2014584 I'm assuming the game (or most of it) takes place in Dylan's mind. It seems like he's purging the Hiss that's infected/possessed him with the help if that thing that Jesse stabs him with in the one teaser. Either that, or Jesse stabs him with the thing, it purges the Hiss from him, he wakes up, sees that the Hiss got out of the Oldest House (which the first game said was VERY bad, thus the lockdown), and uses the thing he was stabbed with (either an altered item or a something new that best girl Emily invented) as his primary weapon.

>>2012042 >The first control was a pleasant surprise for me and just a solid action shooter game >The first control >a solid action shooter Get some standards holy shit. 99% of the enemy spawns are hordes of generic soldiers (but with red eyes) and suicide bombers, there are more enemy types but many of them (such as the big soldiers in EOD suit) are woefully underused for no clear reason. 99% of your damage output comes from "telekinesis" so tacked on it doesn't even require you to actually look for props to throw: the other powers are just not worth depleting the same magic juice that could be dedicated to more telekinesis spam = more damage output, the shield in particular is not worth using ever outside of a single special enemy that is encountered TWICE across the whole game. The gun can switch between 4 forms, none of them particularly satisfying, none of them competitive with telekinesis: gun forms also start gimped and you must engage in a pointless grind-a-thon to get them into a somewhat effective shape. Ammo regenerates on its own, magic juice regenerates on its own, health does not regenerate on its own and requires you to damage enemies and then move closer to pick up health drops: this encourages playing in a safe and boring way. Early game had some neat platforming but getting clever with it mostly results in reaching invisible walls, you can kinda use telekinesis to build prop staircases but it's barely functional and clearly not intended, halfway through the game you get flight which opens up access to areas you never ever could have remotely approached without it and that contain nothing of value. The setting is cool until you realize it's almost entirely smoke and mirrors and the cool paranormal stuff will not actually show up, you're stuck with the Hiss aka some hyper-derivative hivemind/possession/corruption that isn't even remotely unsettling or interesting. The graphics are ok until combat starts, then it's SFX spam 24/7 all over the screen, moar particles = moar better, fuck your fps and fuck being able to see what's actually happening. Control was a pretty clear cut signal, Remedy was FUBAR and they'd never make a good game again.

>>1958829 I would agree. it's a good game, but the hype around it was big for no reason. there are other good adventure games that nobody even mentions

I'll post some I found this year Can post more from my library its chock full of shit like this have a bunch I've collected throughout the years

>>2028633 Oh neat you fixed my brain glitch, thank you

>>2019838 >That is genuinely refreshing Agreed. I can't even remember any other media that doesn't immediately shit on religion every chance it gets (only thing that comes to mind is Netflix's Daredevil). The religious religion vs cultural religion is definitely a part of it. >>2019838 >I'd love to see more stories like this one, I think we overdid "religion bad" as a premise. We have to see again the good of religion and faith. People will see the good again, when times get harder and they slowly realise all their materialistic ambitions are just that, momentary and devoid of real transcendent value, and can be taken away in an instant. But that's a different topic. Anyways, you might want to know that for some reason the dev is making a Chapter 4. I don't believe the game needed it and as such I don't particularly have high hopes.

>>1995899 >It got a 6.8 user score on metacritic and the combat is just the same slow combat shit over and over, with no enemy variety Well that's awful. I have not kept up at all with Silent Hill since the time of Downpour, and as far as I know every single one of these recent projects has sucked. Being relegated to panchinko machines was probably a more respectable legacy for the Silent Hill series.

>>2027773 The real problem with modern silent hill games is the combat which has been an issue from day 1. The story and whatever is good but the combat still continues to be a pain to get through. Playing them on casual or easy mode alleviates that concern, but it's really just a brute force method of getting through the problem. Konami needs to get some Capcom developer to take care of the gameplay for them.

>the mediocre normalfag pandering coomerb8 weebshit one Not even worth a (you). >>2027396 >Personally as someone who immensely enjoyed Xenoblade 1 through 3, I'd rather Monolith worked on an original IP or a new Xeno title since I'm not fond of the direction Zelda has been heading in since BotW Same here. I can understand if people liked BOTW and TOTK, but the new formula has not only gotten stale now, what with most games being open-world now including fucking Mario Kart of all things, but it's also slowing development of new mainline Zelda titles since Nintendo needs to design a huge ass open-world for the player to explore and fill it with little collectibles that they'll scour the entire map for. Yes, I know TOTK just reused BOTW's main area, but they still made the Sky Islands and the Depths. Not to mention whatever changes they made from BOTW to TOTK to make it different. They should just go back to the OoT-SS era of Zelda design as that tended to be a lot tighter and condense than the newer games, but sadly that'll never happen because normalfags are eating this shit up. Hopefully, with the narrative now starting to turn against Nintendo and the open-world design, they'll let the open world formula rest for a while.

>>2027932 >the mediocre normalfag pandering coomerb8 weebshit one What better for the current disgrace that is Zelda. I miss Xenosaga and its 40min episodes. I miss everything in Legend of Zelda but her ass.

>>2027932 The post actually wasn't bait, it was my genuine opinion. If you think it was shit that's fine. Jannies gotta do it for free as usual though.

>>2024495 So it turns out he's been nerfed, and I'm just playing an outdated version. In my game magic was worthless because he had CE reflect. He's had this removed because he was already essentially indestructible. More recent downloads should give people a fighting chance if they're magic only.

>>2023591 It's funny that one of the better parts of the main quest is a detour because Delphine is retarded enough to think the Thalmor somehow summoned the dragons when you literally see Alduin bringing dragons back. The main quest really is retarded.

>>2024546 Even if your spells do work on the pre-patch version, his HP regen is so crazy it outspeeds the actual damage.
