Mafia: The Old Country came out today Anonymous 08/07/2025 (Thu) 20:46:01 Id: df7e3e No. 1639510 [Reply]
Not sure if anyone has played it or is planning on playing it, but I wanted to make this thread to discuss this game since 2K basically just shit this game out without any marketing and treated it as a Mindseye rather than a game they had any faith in. It's a 13 hour-ish linear AA game that's currently on Steam for 50 dollars, and I'm quite interested in giving it a go. Reviews seem to range from 98 to 60, so as with Tranny Age, they're unreliable. If anyone ends up taking the bullet feel free to share your experiences with this game. Otherwise feel free to discuss the series here. link to the game for the richfags/moralfags: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1941540/Mafia_The_Old_Country/''

DONKEY KONG Anonymous 01/16/2025 (Thu) 20:38:12 Id: f555e3 No. 1061714 [Reply] [Last]
D K DONKEY KONG Which is the best Donkey kong game and why is it tropical freeze? More importantly, how come Nintendo hasn't made any DK games lately? I have pretty much given up hope of a 3d collectathon like 64 but having Retro hammer out another 2d platformer can't be too much of a hassle. Maybe just have a new studio make a whole new kind of DK game? There is a lot of things you can do with DK and his extended family.

It'll probably take like a year of not running Steam on that before it wakes up and counts something else.

Final Bosses in vidya Anonymous 05/22/2025 (Thu) 00:50:24 Id: a8256e No. 1388500 [Reply]
After beating a game with a very solid final fight, I was thinking about how much the last boss of a game can enrich or sour your opinion on the overall package, so I want to talk about good and bad final bosses. Things that can make or break a final boss that are worth discussing are: >Gameplay Ideally a final boss is the truest test of your skills in the game (aside from Super Bosses in some RPGs), that push you to the edge and force you into using mechanics you may have ignored throughout most of your playthrough. Ex: <Isshin <Sans <Vergil >Music/Presentation Self-explanatory, a final boss can't feel special without memorable music or arenas to fight them in. Ex: <Armstrong <Gwyn <Sephiroth >Story Depending on how much a game gives a shit about story, the final boss can be a cathartic or emotional capstone for the rest of the game. Ex: <The Boss

Exusia, aka the Chief from Armored Core 5 was the shining beacon in an otherwise so/so game. The game really felt rough around the edges, and the struggling framerate and muddy graphics didn't help, as did the generic story about toppling muh generic evil dictator. But then this glorious motherfukker comes out of nowhere, derails the whole plot, and just kills people left and right. He's so obsessed with fighting the player that he literally betrays his employer, aka the dictator who you fight through most of the game, then kills him in a suicide bombing attack that kills one of your closest allies (Leon), he turns one of your other allies against you (RD) and then he shows up in the game's finale in an alien mech that defies everything you've seen in the game so far, and the last battle is just you versus him in an apocalyptic hellscape. Story-wise, he literally saves the whole game on the merits of just being a fun asshole to hate and fight. Gameplay-wise, his fight is a fitting conclusion to your mech skills, and is a decent challenge. Music/presentation wise, this is why Fromsoftware is at the top of their game. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XnvqcSKho5w https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wKJtEGLSkFc

>>1637708 You think thats bad? Then name the final boss of F4. Spoiler: there is none.
Never really had a final boss "redeem" a game for me. If I'm liking the game the final boss either raises that good factor even further or tanks it a bit but doesn't ruin the game. I've had some final bosses ruin games for me though. Final Fantasy 3's final boss is some right bullshit that forces you back three hours because you didn't know she had a gimmick and used the wrong damage type on the wrong add, combined with the difficulty curve in that game being a sharp spike right at the end and it's just not fun. DS3 was a game I was very mixed on when I first played it and only soured on over time, but the final boss music being REMEMBER GWYN REMEMBER PLIN PLIN PLON and being sad garbage to end an experience combined with the last phase being less of a challenge save for the one five hit move cemented my dislike for the game and it's nostalgiabait horseshit. Thought I'd get a cool amaglam boss of all sorts of character builds but no, had to have some damned DS1 nostalgiabait in there as if we didn't have enough of that during the rest of the game. There are some final bosses that I thought were really awesome but don't get enough credit for their quality, though. Like Remnant II's final boss, Annihilation, having the really cool reality-switching thing and relying mostly on audio cues while remembering what's coming next, all while the phases keep switching in time to the music during the second half. >>1637708 Autumn pisses me off in a ton of ways. Much more than just being "some dude in a trenchcoat". He flip-flops on his ideals and motives constantly not as a character point, but due to retarded writing and wanting to force him into being a villain but still giving a passive way out of his final fight because past fallout games did that. If you actually wanted his Enclave to be a force trying to take the wasteland and rule it, give an evil or neutral karma option to join him when he kidnaps you started by giving him the correct code instead of having him dome you for it, and don't make him shoot a random passive scientist if his goal is to have a good rep with the wasteland and act as the benevolent dictator of such. If you want him to be an irredeemable piece of trash then go all the way with hit and don't have his motivations flip at the last minute. And make his final fight an actual hard one like Frank Horrigan and the Master were, not some jobber with a 10mm pistol. FO3's got a ton of problems but how they don't let you side with Autumn's Enclave is a big one for me, because for all intents and purposes he should be considering it with how much of a one man army your character has been, and since his goal is domination and not some purity shit like whatever Eden was smoking. >>1638944 A reactor that you interact with is the final boss. If you want to be more generous it's the black-armored Synths in the non institute routes, and General Maxson in the Institute one. Black armored synths with barely any more health than normal combat ones and a dude in some power armor who's no stronger than any other power armored BoS fuck, I might add.

Do you guys think it's weird to prefer the original versions of the Mega Man games, if only because they work the best with romhacks? The X Legacy Collection just doesn't have any way to play any of the hacks, like X4-5-6's improvement hacks, or the Zero Project for X3.

SMW ROMHACKS (and other romhacks I guess) Anonymous 04/05/2025 (Sat) 21:00:25 Id: 97fd86 No. 1086469 [Reply] [Last]
Any love for Super Mario World romhacks around these parts? It's my favorite Mario title and 2D platformer in general by far for the tight movement and fast gameplay, and romhacks have made this shine. Here are some hacks I really enjoyed: >Pic related Pretty easy overall with the exception of a few secret levels but the game looks amazing. All the sprites are hand drawn and the music choice is nice. You've probably played it if you're ITT but if not do it. >New Super Mario World 1: The Twelve Magic Orbs Powered-Up Specifically the Powered-Up version as this is an update to an older hack. So many cool custom power ups in this remake and unique levels that take advantage of them. Long, but worth 100%ing. The final boss will make you cry (with frustration). >Super Mario World: The Secret of the 7 Golden Statues Another hack with cool custom power ups and some really tough levels. Some annoying areas but still a great hack overall. >JUMP 1/2 Definitely the most creative hack out there that's not total nonsense. This game can be very difficult at times but each stage or couple of stages introduces a new gimmick. I dont want to give anything away, it's way more fun to work your way through this sadistic adventure yourself. 130 exits, many fun but many very challenging. >Akogare My own personal kaizo autism. Never finished it due to losing my save file but I completed around 30 exits and got some switch palaces too. Normally I was never down for kaizo but I tried Akogare and after I completed stage 1 I couldn't stop. The game is beautifully designed, and even when I was trolled by the dev I wasn't mad because I was having fun doing the stage anyway. Not for everyone, but a great personal challenge. I could go on. But please Anons tell me about your love for romhacks and post your favorites as well.

I did ever since it was introduced, because it was strictly for gameplay balance reasons and Game freak never really succeeded in making the type feel natural compared to Dark or Steel. On top of that, it lessened the reward in raising slow-grower Dragon type pokemon. The investment and commitment they needed gave you a strong mon that was close to invincible but now some random can switch in her snubull and cancel your outrage domination.

>>1635401 Gens III and IV also had plenty of replacement Pokemon. But the problem is that some are replaced while some old ones are just there like before. Either replace them all or keep them all. Frankly, I don't give a fuck about new Pokemon, at least if the new ones are just replacements, which they always have been, with maybe the exception of Gen II, where you could get basically all the old ones, and the new ones were largely to promote gimmicks like the day/night cycle, or the new types. Rather than removing old ones just to replace them, I'd rather they just stuck with the originals and just give me new adventures with them.
>>1636637 I didn't like how Gen II handled new Pokemon, they should had gave us the options to use new mons too without any insane gimmicks. The fact that Misdreavus is locked behind end game, the new ghost type pokemon is outrageous. Pokemon from Kanto to Johto with cross-gen evolutions + unused beta mons should suffice. The issue with this mindset is that it can be stale. There's nothing wrong with giving new mons the highlight. Especially when there's something as good as Hydreigon or Spinda.
>>1635401 >unique originality is overrated. shit just needs to be good. just because something is original does not make it good (or bad) >inspiration another meme buzzword people toss around to defend rehashes they like. just like rehash is used to criticize knockoffs one doesn't like. it's always like this: if I like it, it's inspiration. if I don't, it's shameless plagiarism

Video Games from your childhood you can't find Anonymous 05/07/2025 (Wed) 10:37:56 Id: 28a1d9 No. 1327277 [Reply] [Last]
Last thread I talked about a game I played as a kid I couldn't find, it was Magic Dream (Волшебный сон), a Russian kids game on CD from 1997 by Nikita Online. How my father got his hands on this I have no idea, as I live super far from Russia. https://1c.ru/vendors/nikita/MAGDREAM/MAGDREAM.HTM I recently went around searching a game from my teens I played when I first got an Ipod Touch and was somehow able to find it despite modern search engines being mostly shit. It's was 2009-2010 game called Destroy 9, by a sole gook Jongha Back, via his company NaomicSoft. I can't even find gameplay footage of it anymore https://apps.apple.com/fj/app/war-game-destroy-9/id550881679 It was a complete clusterfuck of a strategy action game where you produced and controlled units in real time in a 2D view with tons of SFX on screen. The localization was so bad I don't even remember what the objective was. There were like 6 versions of the same game as well with slight differences. Just complete insanity to the point I thought it was a fever dream The gook is still making games and his blogspot is still open, https://naomicsoft.blogspot.com/2010/04/destroy9_18.html Ask anons about games you don't remember or the ones you did end up finding here.

I remember this strictly from my childhood and I've played these two games very rarely butbI prefered one over the other by a lot when I was a child. 1st one was an breakout/arjanoid clone that used a very metallic and industrial aestetic while it used a radioactive symbol somewhere either for the ball or for the cursor, but that might be misremembering from stalker (which I haven't played) 2nd one us strategy game featuring very very caricatures of farners, knights and such,dunno if it was a fantasy or not but I know the gameplay was bassically a tower attack game where you move units from one base to another in predestined paths dunno how the actual game type it is called and if you know It'd help me. Might look deeper into it then internet by actually taking a look at grandpas computer if they are still there since I own it now

After losing his father, he become a cop, and is unable to solve his old man case, then he find a girl and she end up dead along the way without being able to prevent it, and then his best friend end up betraying him for his family and at that point, he cling to the hope that he could at least find closure on Bradley to not hit beyond rock bottom, just to realize that after writing that letter, Bradley ended up dead as well. For a series of games where the mystery happen across mundane places, people and situations, Hyde was a really tragic character.

With Sonic X Shadow Generations coming out in less than a week, now is a good time for a new Sonic thread. Personally I'm quite excited for the game, and am surprised it hasn't already leaked since it usually leaks around this time. Although I'm kinda disappointed we haven't seen a proper Adventure remake yet, hopefully this game will be good and will lead to good things as time goes on. Oh, and hopefully we'll get a Shadow remake that's actually good this time. I doubt SEGA has the balls to make that kinda game in the modern age though. Are you looking forward to Shadow Generations? Do you think we'll get more Sonic stages as DLC? Or will the game just be average and a waste of money and the cycle will repeat itself all over again, even though Frontiers as a modded game is solid. Still, this is the thread to discuss anything and everything Sonic the Hedgehog! please don't porn dump, I'm looking at you Bui
