We are still short on volunteers, and need additional coverage.
Do not worry if you feel unqualified: you will receive training, oversight, and help from the global team as we attempt to scale up with the userbase. We are not asking for a massive time or effort commitment, just some additional users who can clear the report queue periodically.

CURRENT TASKS:
1. OPERATION MAX REVIVE
Rebuild the board's userbase and activity through simple, but effective methods
1. Post across the entire board
Activity creates activity. Use threads you like, make new ones if topics don't exist. Easy examples are Drawthreads and Friday Night threads, go request or draw something right now.
2. Recruit and recover lost or potential anons
Use this site's OC and features to entice anons if necessary when recruiting, just inform that we are alive.
Here's some sites and links with at least some confirmed anons that can be recruited again:
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/8chotwheels
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/SSAVCH
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/video_games
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/8chmohun
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/8chan_monster
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/GoodLuckEbolaChan
https://steamcommunity.com/search/groups/#text=8ch.net
https://steamcommunity.com/search/groups/#text=8chan
Other sites that might yield fruitful results and have anons (art sites use an account so you can see 18+ content):
https://www.deviantart.com/search?q=Vivian+James
https://www.newgrounds.com/search/summary?suitabilities=etm&terms=Vivian%20James
https://twitter.com/search?q=Vivian%20James&src=typed_query&f=image
https://rpgcodex.net/
https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/
Somewhere on Telegram
Just searching up GG or 8chan-related terms on certain places/sites can get you possible results.
3. Make your own OC/Memes/Content
Doesn't matter what it is even if its just simple edits or full-on drawings or webms, just make it and have fun. Ask in thread for software recs if necessary.
4. Encourage or create fun events, activities, projects, etc.
Think things like 8chanmania, weekly streams, re-translation projects, demo days, or zzz's gaming magazine for example. If you want to do something, try making or reviving it, it can't hurt and these things are great for the board.
5. Use other boards
All it takes for a board to grow is at least 2 dedicated anons using it. Don't be afraid to make a post, check places periodically, shill, or what have you. Don't force discussions to boards, just encourage the usage of them.
2. OPERATION TRAJAN:
Collect and catalog all of the various localization and censorship accounts of past video games into a single repository from these sources:
romhacking.net
The_Cutting_Room_Floor/tcrf.net
Segaretro.org

Souls Thread: I Can't Believe It's Not Bloodborne! Edtion
Let's discuss Soulsborne games (Sekiro, Nightreign and Duskbloods included).
Well Nintendo really stirred the pond by getting From to make a not Bloodborne 2 Multiplayer game. How many of you think the gameplay elements introduced in Nightreign and Duskbloods will shake up future souls gameplay? New content is coming to the Switch 2 version of Elden meme which will come to the other versions.

This is one of the worst games I've ever finished.
>The controls were horrible
>The strength progression was way too easy to cheese
>Money and 99% of items became worthless the second I realized I could just beat up merchants for all of their stock
>NPC AI was retarded in the original meaning of the word
>The game doesn't let you explore on your own—everything is locked behind a quest
>It had the most annoying fetch quests that led you going back to the same places over and over again, etc. etc.
The story was okay and I appreciated the world they crafted, which is why I finished it, but it had an unsatisfying ending. Why is this praised as a masterpiece?

Touhou Thread: Springtime Edition
春ですよー
Springtime is in full swing (and the previous thread is bumplocked), so it's time for a new Touhou thread! Come discuss Touhou Project here.
Who is your favorite Touhou artist, anon? Have you recently stumbled upon any new artists who's work has blown you away?
And of course, what Touhou games have you been playing?
Archive of previous thread: https://archive.ph/EDk6I
>What is Touhou?
Touhou Project is a video game series created by Team Shanghai Alice. ZUN, the founder of the group, is the sole mind behind the games, from the code to the graphics to the music and everything in between. The first game was released in 1997. Most of the games are part of the bullet hell shoot-'em-up genre, where the player dodges waves of beautiful and destructive curtains of bullets called danmaku. ZUN is a massive supporter of doujin developers and has encouraged others to create fanworks based on Touhou Project. This has lead to Touhou becoming a cornerstone of internet culture for over two decades through memes, music remixes, artwork, and fan animations.
>Where can I buy Touhou games?
The easiest way is through Steam, which has most titles from the series.
https://store.steampowered.com/search/?developer=%E4%B8%8A%E6%B5%B7%E3%82%A2%E3%83%AA%E3%82%B9%E5%B9%BB%E6%A8%82%E5%9B%A3&ndl=1
You can also purchase physical CD copies of the games online.
>What Touhou game do I start with?
It depends. While the games are numbered, starting at Touhou 1 and going through the series numerically may not make for the best experience. Feel free to ask in the thread and an anon will help you out.

2d animated games
No pixel art. I am sick of it. I want 2d animation but the only people that do that are vanillaware, ubisoft and the occasional indie. Why aren't big companies making 2d games anymore? Don't even try to tell me that is is to expensive. Studios are wasting 200 million and more per game nowadays. They can afford 2d animation.
I also hate that out of all the big companies the only one doing 2d is fucking Ubisoft. The company that I hate the most. Vanillaware is only AA at most and they are pretty much carrying 2d animation in gaming. Apparently George Kamitani was quite disappointed how the industry super focused on 3d. He therefore started focusing on 2d games, something about wanting to see how the industry would be like had we evolved from pixels to handdrawn instead of 3d. I want to see that as well.
Hollow knight is another good one, and its indie as well. Has a very adorable artstyle and is one of few metroidvanias that isn't fucking pixels. Cuphead is/was an indie game that also has great animation. The artstyle is very unique as well. Never played it myself though, no reason in particular.
I wish I had more examples but I already posted the UC examples in the thread about it and I can't find the gif of rayman blowing a fairys skirt up.
Whatever opinion you might have on any of the games mentioned most of them were successes. UC sold a million, The rayman games sold great (I think?), Cuphead and hollow knight are selling fantastically. Clearly there is a demand for it and yet so little supply.

Onirism
Old thread finally expired, and from searching archives I've heard the halfchan jannies hated threads for the game existing. so let's have a new thread on the French indie third person shooter Onirism.
Discuss
>favorite weapons
>favorite costumes
>has anyone actually played the multiplayer vs. actual people?
I personally really like the rustic boomstick since it can 1HKO most normal enemies at a decent range and 2HKO those that it can't while dealing lots of damage to big targets with weapon swapping. It starts to lose effectiveness in the newest areas though.

The Video Game Industry is imploding
I wanted to make a thread for this since it seems every day there's either a massive amount of industry layoffs or some publisher splitting off. Most recently Toys for Bob and Saber Interactive have split from their previous holders with rumors of Gearbox being sold off or going private after splitting off from Embracer like Saber just did. Additionally 505 have just shut down a bunch of offices in Spain, Germany, and France.
Since just last holiday there have been over 15,000+ layoffs in the video games industry with a lot of companies restructuring like Embracer and Sony after deals with the Saudi's and the Chinese have basically gone sour. This is in addition to games like Spider-Man 2 (2023) costing over 300 million dollars and with the constant failures of live service games, it makes sense why the industry is experiencing a soft crash as it were. It remains to be seen what will come of the video games industry and what will rise from the ashes. I'm expecting to see more smaller publishers pop up while the current publishers will focus on making smaller games with tighter budgets. That being said no one really knows where the industry will go from here.

The often asked question: "I'm new to the series. Where should I start?" for modern FE experience is Three Houses (Switch - 2019) or Engage (Switch - 2023), and for semi old school FE experience is Awakening (3DS - 2012) or Fates (3DS - 2015) or Echoes (3DS - 2017).

>Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE
>Nintendo Wii U (Wii U) - 2015
Set in modern-day Tokyo.
The story follows the members of a talent agency during their conflicts with hostile beings from another world called Mirages. Mirages are based on characters from Shadow Dragon (FE1/FE11) and Awakening. Do not consider this an FE title. This is a spin-off with some FE lore and characters. Only play this if you're a fan of Persona or Shin Megami Tensei games, you're starving for more FE and its characters like Tiki, or you like anime.
>Fire Emblem Heroes
>Google Android - 2017, Apple iOS - 2017
It’s a hodgepodge of characters from all FE games plus a few original characters. There’s an avatar/My Unit, but their only purpose is to perform summons. There is a lot of debate on the canonicity of the game. To make it simple, consider Heroes to be canon within the Heroes universe for now. Feel free to skip this game, if you're not into mobile gaming.

CURRENT TASKS:
1. OPERATION MAX REVIVE
Rebuild the board's userbase and activity through simple, but effective methods
1. Post across the entire board
Activity creates activity. Use threads you like, make new ones if topics don't exist. Easy examples are Drawthreads and Friday Night threads, go request or draw something right now.
2. Recruit and recover lost or potential anons
Use this site's OC and features to entice anons if necessary when recruiting, just inform that we are alive.
Here's some sites and links with at least some confirmed anons that can be recruited again:
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/8chotwheels
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/SSAVCH
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/video_games
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/8chmohun
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/8chan_monster
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/GoodLuckEbolaChan
https://steamcommunity.com/search/groups/#text=8ch.net
https://steamcommunity.com/search/groups/#text=8chan
Other sites that might yield fruitful results and have anons (art sites use an account so you can see 18+ content):

https://twitter.com/search?q=Vivian%20James&src=typed_query&f=image
https://rpgcodex.net/
https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/
Somewhere on Telegram
Just searching up GG or 8chan-related terms on certain places/sites can get you possible results.
3. Make your own OC/Memes/Content
Doesn't matter what it is even if its just simple edits or full-on drawings or webms, just make it and have fun. Ask in thread for software recs if necessary.
4. Encourage or create fun events, activities, projects, etc.
Think things like 8chanmania, weekly streams, re-translation projects, demo days, or zzz's gaming magazine for example. If you want to do something, try making or reviving it, it can't hurt and these things are great for the board.
5. Use other boards
All it takes for a board to grow is at least 2 dedicated anons using it. Don't be afraid to make a post, check places periodically, shill, or what have you. Don't force discussions to boards, just encourage the usage of them.
2. OPERATION TRAJAN:
Collect and catalog all of the various localization and censorship accounts of past video games into a single repository from these sources:
romhacking.net
The_Cutting_Room_Floor/tcrf.net
Segaretro.org

Xenoblade Thread: You will know that Xenoblade X leaked
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.

So I finally got 1&2 after it spending years under the radar for me, I should note I had zero idea of these games besides them being girmdark.
>Game is a horror turn based RPG
>Big point of combat is dismemberment
<Enemies can very easily do the same to you including blinding the party
>Shit is also based on the toss of a coin
>Items are also RNG
<RNG will rape you harder the enemies will
>Grinding much like last remnant will get you nowhere
>Choosing your starting character and knowing to use them is the difference between a good run and bad run
>You will be raped
<In the literal sense
>Sound design is excellent
>Each time you get into combat you feel the insane risk of each encounter
>The Eclipse style monsters and tier events
>Some enemies can be talked to while giving you a thrashing
>NPCs range from insane to tragic
<You can recruit several
>Game might be more obtuse then a Souls game in certain regards
>Piss easy to absolutely fuck yourself over
>Items can be used to fuck over enemies or bypass things in the dungeon
>Multiple endings
I'm going to start 2 soon but I thoroughly enjoyed 1.

MOSAIC THREAD: BRAIN AGE 2: ELECTRIC BOOGALOO EDITION
IT'S MUTHAFUCKIN MOSAIC TIME, NIGGERS!
A little bit of Friday and Weekend fun for the board's new visitors. For oldfags, if you want to contribute, you better do so quickly before the tiles get claimed quickly.
>What is this
Simple. You just claim one of the tiles associated with the chart in the second image, then you draw over/remix/fix/fuck up the tile. Once everyone has finished every tile, I'll compile it all up and we'll see what lovely work we have done.
Today's mosaic covers Brain Age 2, since our last Mosaic (
>>1067478) did so well.
<But I can't draw!
You don't need to be Picasso to contribute. All you need is creativity and/or autism. Drawfag skills are only a bonus.
<But what do I do?
It's up to you, faggot! Just try to be a little more creative than copy+pasting memes on to it. I'll post some examples of past mosaics ITT so you can hopefully draw some inspiration from them.
I'll be posting the tiles ITT after this post. Make sure to refer to their location when claiming them, for the sake of convenience and order.

2025 AAA Gaming Crash
I predict a gaming crash will happen as a result of the failure of GTA 6.
There's not enough consoles out there to support it's sales on a very bloated budget, so it will flop.
I think we will see a ripple effect in the AAA gaming industry, maybe even a crash.
What do you guys think?
The best counter-argument I've seen is that they will make more off of microtransactions in VI's online, but I'm not sure if people will even want to switch from GTA:O.

Video game genres that you dislike and why.
I dislike soulsbourne games because the core aspect of the game actually isn't even difficult, it's just tedium that extends the games run time. For example if I die to a boss or mob and the nearest bonfire I last used was 100 meters away I have to trek the distance all the way back to get my experience and/or kill the enemy that last killed me. What did I learn while treking those 100 meters? More importantly what makes running that far actually difficult? Nothing. You are just being punished with time wasting tedium and going against enemies you had no problem dispatching up to that point. I understand wanting to have a game that is difficult but the core aspect of this genre just isn't. I also don't see the point of simulators. Specifically games like the sims. I don't see the appeal of watching your character do things instead of actually doing them.

The Legend of Zelda Thread
Skyward Sword got a lot of things right. When compared to Wind Waker and Twilight Princess, you have to admit that it is as good or better than both. At least I admit it.
Seriously though, I actually do prefer SS to both WW and TP. I prefer it in dungeons, music for the most part, combat, gameplay, characters, side quests and a lot more I can't think of at the moment. Of the things I'd fix, I wish there were a way to make the "beneath the Sky" area interconnected since the sequence of finding a statue, going up to the sky, flying to the light beam, selecting where to land and then being able to go can get a bit bothersome. Also I wish taking off on your loftwing from Skyloft were as seamless as you do it when you fly from anywhere else in the sky (probably hardware limitations, but I also wish the HD Remaster would have fixed it). Even still, this one is one of my favorite 3D Zelda games and it always has been.

MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
I hate the fairy type. 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.

At what point do you acknowledge a game series to be "dead"?
The main reason I bring this up is because I decided to do a quick look into the Darksiders series and see the people behind it because I was curious if I really "missed" anything having only playing the first and possible second game. And I found it interesting that Darksiders 3 effectively had nothing to do with the crew of the first two games. The "brains" of the series Joe Mad left to form Airship Syndicate and work on Battle Chasers and (More recently) Wayfinder, Timothy Bell was picked up by iD and has been working on the nuDoom games (That explains a lot), and several of the other studio leads bounced off to Sega, Microsoft, or Crytek. And while David Adams and a few other people have stuck around and are still working on the series, I don't remember anyone really being that impressed with the third game.
And this is what brings forward my question, because Darksiders isn't the only series to suffer from this. DMC is going to be handed off to a new team with the depature of Itsuno (After Kamiya and Mikami already left), Halo and Sonic have passed through the hands of several entirely different teams, all of the leading Final Fantasy crew have left ages ago to form Mistwalker or Monolith Soft, Ninja Gaiden is no longer even being developed by Tecmo, Atari is revived by the French after they killed it once already, Call of Duty has none of the original MoH team who have since gone on to work at Epic or EA, Street Fighter has almost nothing to do with it's original creators who have long since left the company to form Arika or shack up with SNK (Before ALSO leaving to form Dimps), and it just continues. I'm not saying any of the new guys are "incapable" of developing a good new game appropriate to whatever series they are working on. The problem I have is just wondering when people are going to let series just finally die out because of none of the people who made the games actually still working there. Start making new games against instead of constantly devoting everything to these legcy series that increasingly have nothing to do with their roots.

Cuhrayzee Vidya
I haven't seen a thread discussing stylish action for a while, let's change that. Honestly I was kinda disappointed with Bayonetta 3, it wasn't nearly as good as the previous two games and I feel basically killed the series seeing as Kamiya left Platinum in order to work at Hamster probably. Still, it's kinda sad that Bayonetta was destined to die a mediocre death. That said as for Bayonetta's twin IP Astral Chain, apparently Nintendo completely owns the rights to that IP now, so hopefully we can see them develop the sequel in house since I would love to see how Nintendo tackles these kinds of games.
Other than a few indie games, there's not really much going on with the genre. The Genokids demo was top notch and I highly recommend everyone here give it a chance, but other than that I'm waiting to hear about some surprise hits like Hi-Fi Rush since that was an extremely pleasant surprise and was actually did better than both Microsoft and Bethesda expected it to be. So hopefully we'll see a new Hi-Fi Rush in the future.
Other than that, I'm sure Capcom is gonna remake DMC1 or DMC3 at some point in the near future, and like I said before Hi-Fi Rush did surprisingly well. So I strongly doubt the genre is dead, but that it usually takes a bit to get one of these games off the ground since Souls is the hot sauce these days. Still, what cuhrayzee games are you playing right now /v/? I'm going through Ninja Gaiden and God Hand myself, enjoying them as always.

FAQ
Where do I get BIOS files, prod.keys, NAND dumps, system ROMs, and other firmware?
https://emulation.gametechwiki.com/index.php/Emulator_files
My PC is a toaster. Are there any emulators I can run?
Most emulators of the 16-bit era (fourth generation) and earlier consoles (e.g., Sega Genesis, NES, Atari 2600, etc.) can be run on any PC, even one with a CPU clock speed of below 1 GHz. higan is the only exception because it's highly accurate and requires a 3 GHz CPU for optimal performance. Other emulators such as Snes9x, Kega Fusion, Mesen, etc. can be run on any PC that can run Windows.
My save states do not work in the new version of the emulator I downloaded. Why?
Save states are not compatible between different versions of emulators, or between different emulators. Don't rely on them. Use real/battery saves which typically can be transferred, even if they need to be converted first.
My game isn't working. How do I resolve problems on my own?
Emulators can have stable builds that are weeks, months, and sometimes even years old. The "stable" version is often just a randomly picked dev (short for development) version, which is why the latest dev versions should often be preferred, as they solve emulation issues most of the time. If you're using a plugin-based emulator, graphical glitches and sound issues could be solved by changing the settings or using a different, better plugin altogether. Newer, more accurate emulators that do not use a plugin system may also be recommended. Try changing the graphics backend between OpenGL, Direct3D, and Vulkan. Sometimes, questions may have been asked and answered multiple times in the past. Check online. If you still can't find a solution, ask. Provide system specs, operating system, emulator, version, settings, plugins, system emulated, game emulated, and the problem itself.

Video Games from your childhood you can't find
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.

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,

Metal Gear Solid
What happened to this franchise? It was once upon a time a very popular and beloved series. Did a zombie game really ruin their momentum? Or was it Hideo Kojima leaving?
I have a lot of great memories playing these games and the only thing they released in the past 7 years are remasters. The remaster collection did great but I can't see why they couldn't make another solid (what a great joke lmao) game in the series for modern fans.
If you ever played MGS1 on the Playstation 1, there was nothing like it. No doubt it catapulted the PS1 to levels it never would have done otherwise.

Why do we need insane T.o.Service crap for a game that has been on steam for more than a decade? The Steam Reviews page for Borderlands is so justified. Why is there Spyware basically now added to a decade old game? I thought it was bad for Minecraft, but this is just as bad if not worse.

Ninja Thread
In this OP i'll be drawing attention to
>Ninja Gaiden Ragebound 2nd Protagonist - Kumori
>Ninja Gaiden 2 Black mods
>The return of Intercept technique to Ninja Gaiden 2004
Many recent developments have happened for Ninja Gaiden that are worth bringing attention to. I'm making the OP about Ninja Gaiden, but Ninja's are a pretty broad category when it comes to video games, so feel free to post about other games that involve ninjas.
<Nioh 2 Sliders code for my Goemon is S-Qkip+DaP4x=z
As of the day of this thread's creation, a new Trailer for Ninja Gaiden Ragebound has dropped showcasing the 2nd protagonist Kumori a Kunoichi for the Black Spider Clan. Seems she and the other new protagonist Kenji of the Hayabusa clan, for the sake of their own survival, will join forces literally, as their spirits have been bound together.
>With upgradable abilities, hidden collectibles, unlockable secret missions, optional challenges, and more, NINJA GAIDEN: Ragebound is a thrilling modernization of the tense, satisfyingly swift battles and precise, skill-demanding platforming the series is known for.
They seem to be laying it on thick that this is a real Ninja Gaiden game, not simply an appetizer for NG4.
In other news when it comes to Ninja Gaiden 2 Black some Glorious bastard finally made the Hayabusa armor from Halo 3 a mod, In multiple colors as well. This has been a very long time coming.
https://www.nexusmods.com/ninjagaiden2black/mods/150?tab=files
If one desires to make NG 2 Black more In line with NG2 360 then the "Ninja Gaiden 2 White" mod exists, to the same Ballance changes that the Simga 2 Black mod.
https://www.nexusmods.com/ninjagaiden2black/mods/30
There are plenty of cool mods for NG2 Black that are worth taking a look at.
Now this last bit of info about NG 2004 is a fair bit old, but it's still obscure, and most people are not informed of these developments.
For those who haven't heard of it before, The Intercept Technique is an ability that can only be found in the The Hurricane Packs DLC for Ninja Gaiden (2004), up until recently this DLC was Quite difficult to actually get access to, as the DLC was designed to be accessed with an Xbox Live connection. If you couldn't connect to Xbox live in NG 2004 you were incapable of starting a playthough of the DLC, the only way to access that DLC offline would be to already have a Save file ready to load into. Now thanks to the fan run replacement for Xbox live 1.0 Insignia, it is possible to connect either an actual Original Xbox, or XEMU to Insignia's Servers, and get access to the DLC properly once again.
The Significance of The Intercept Technique is that it Essentially grants Ryu Royal Guard, by Blocking with good timing, once an Intercept is performed you'll have enough Invincibility to perform your next action entierly free. The Intercept was understandably overpowered, thus it was not bought forward to Ninja Gaiden Black, but it's still a cool move to play around with, so anyone who is a fan of NG1 would likely be Interested in running a play through with the Intercept, just for a change of pace.

Monster Hunter
What do you think is the reasoning behind Capcom launching their games as sudo-live service?
Just like World, Wilds came out incomplete as they release updates with content that should be there on release, but this time much worse.

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

Games where you play as a Merchant
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.

So I don't think it's much of a secret these days that despite
<TAA, with ghosting and trailing
<mandatory upscaling
<framegen
<raytracing and pathtracing
more and more games are shipping out in worse technical states asking for more power while less is delivered. There are a myriad of reasons for this state of affairs but TL;DR something systemic is definitely going on and it's led to ripple effects like gamers buying more PC indie titles, reevaluation of the eighth generation, backlash against Unreal Engine, and the Threat Interactive drama. "buy new GPU" is no longer a valid dismissal since Nvidia's poor showing at CES, with barely an uptick in compute and the push for 75% fake frames and neural texture compression.

Synergy
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1989070/Synergy/
Saw this game had just came out of Early Access, so I decided to pick it up and try it out since it has a cool art style. Was hoping someone else might have done the same, as there's really nowhere to talk about it beyond Steam's forums and that's a shit hole of underage retards I don't want to deal with.
It's a fun game. It still needs a lot of polish, compared to other city/base building type games, but the devs seem to want to develop on it further and keep updates rolling to add content to the game so I'm excited to see that.
Anyone else pick up the game or try it out?

Ghost in the Shell director Mamoru Oshii says political correctness has made western games ‘terrible’.
>Oshii: Political correctness started from the idea of giving legitimacy to the socially weak. There is nothing wrong with that. In a mature society, it is a natural responsibility. However, the problem is that it has taken that as its starting point and made the socially weak into the strong.
>Oshii: They were given priority in getting into school, and priority in finding a job. What’s more, the companies that advised them charged them ridiculous amounts in consulting fees. Game companies ask for hundreds of millions of yen from them.
>Oshii: Basically, it’s based on admiration! If you deny admiration, entertainment loses its reason for existence as entertainment. In the past, even if you said “beautiful” people would say it was discriminatory. Western games are really terrible

/agdg/ for idiots - Awful Games Done Goofily thread
Hello, I am a lazy-assed motherfucker who wants to program vidya but has the attention span of a fruit fly and can not stick to a project for more than a week before giving up and abandoning it. So let's have a thread for people like me to plan out a simple game, slap it together, stick to it, get something done, and show off to each other. We will each follow a general outline, and each of us will add our own flair to it.
This week is prep week. We need two things.
1. a VOLUNTEER to be our guru and decide on a technology platform, and to be able to answer tech questions. The platform must be free-as-in-beer and run on my broken toaster of a computer, and newbies need to be able to use it. I hear that Godot is popular. I have seen some good games made in Twine but have never gotten custom code to work correctly. Other than that I have no idea what games are programmed in these days.
2. we need to decide what sort of simple game we want to make. Do we want to do an Asteroids clone? A Choose Your Own Adventure? Feel free to recommend some simple game from the 1980s or an old classroom assignment. We can point to an online tutorial and say "let's all do that" and let's do it.
Newbies who have never programmed a game before are encouraged to join. This is where you get started.
I will be the incompetent middle management making overall decisions.
This week: get your dev environment set up and play around with tutorials
April 19th: I will announce the project
First week: Start coding your game
April 27th: Give an update on how it's going
Second week: Add flair and finishing touches
May 4th: Show us what you've done, no matter how bad it looks. Give us your crashing error screen. We'll take it and laugh at it together. We've all been there.
In between: feel free to ask "does anyone know how to...?" questions. The quickest way to solve a technical question is to ask on a forum. You will figure out the answer just after the post goes through.

MOOs, MUSHes, and MUDs
Are there any good ones out there? Everything that I tried that was not a Hellshard was clunky, slow, and what you might call "not a game" (just perform the same action over and over for identical combat encounters, indefinitely).
Also a place for reminiscing about the good times in GONDO (rip GONDO). Poast here if we haven't talked in a while.
Hellmoo forks 8ch has played in the past:
InfernoMOO:
inferno.optiquest.org:7777
The good fork of HellMOO. GONDO moved here after Helle got too gay and carebear. All the fun and glory of no-holds-barred HellPVP with some additions - new muts, new weapons, mutation points system instead of slots, keep your journal XP on reroll. Sadly dead most of the time, but it has had occasional revivals.
SamsaraMOO:
moo.samsara-moo.com:7999
Hell but with even more carebear. Mostly socializing and PvE, but it's also where all the Helle refugees went when that closed. Good pop at all hours of the day.
PissMOO:
ipiss.rocks:7155
Remember that really weird fork where you could be a robot and have four arms and it was busted as shit? It still exists, just even more dead than Inferno.
Wayfar 1444:
website at
https://wayfar1444.com/
Not something we've played together and not even a hellfork, but built on Hellcore. Total sci-fi conversion, very cool, closed in 2016 but apparently it's coming back? Does anyone know anything about this?

>Q: How often should I long rest?
>A: Many companion and romance interactions occur when long resting. Some early lower priority camp scenes can also be missed if higher priority ones are queued. To advance companion quests or romances, make sure to long rest often.
>Q: Can I recruit Minthara without going down the evil path?
>A: If you knock her out in Act 1, yes. You do miss out on the sex scene, but otherwise the romance remains the same.
>Q: Underdark or Mountain Pass?
>A: Either, or both. It's recommended to clear both on higher difficulties for the experience and loot. Both connect to the same Act 2 map.
>Q: Is The Dark Urge essentially "Tav+"?
>A: Yes. You get additional content, BUT there are points where, if you've chosen to resist the Urge and/or don't complete quests the "right" way, you'll have to pass additional checks to avoid losing companions.
>Q: Are there any consequences to consuming tadpoles?
>A: No, for the most part. However if you've consumed any tadpoles, there will later be a DC 21 Wisdom check to reject the Astral-Touched Tadpole, which affects your appearance if consumed.
>Q: Should I enable Karmic Dice?
>A: Karmic Dice will avoid streaks of low rolls, both for you and the enemy. It is recommended to disable it if you're specializing.

Luanti thread
I'm afraid to make a Luanti thread because the game is much better than Minecraft. It's the definitive block building video game. (popularity is not a measure of quality). I'm afraid to make a thread and advertise it's existence for fear of it becoming too popular (normalfags ruin everything).
I'm going to make 1 thread about it (per imageboard) and that's it because the userbase is a bit TOO small for my taste and this game could use a bit more players.
>How is Luanti better than Minecraft
-it is a self contained and simple application. The audio always works, the game always runs reliably.
-simple and intuitive Linux and Windows support
-it is a convenient platform for mods. This is a big deal. Mods are a 1 click install. There's been times where I didn't like something about the base game so I immediately went and downloaded a mod and the problem was fixed in 5 minutes.
-Open source for maximum customizability
-every aspect of this game is free as in costs no money.
-no corporate faggotry overlordom from micro$oft
-Online play is simple and intuitive

Can we have a Stalker thread?
I've recently tried out what all the fuss around GAMMA is about and I must say it's quite a fun experience
For people who don't know, it's a customizable modpack for Anomaly (a freeplay mod consiting all areas of the first 2 stalker games) and comes with its own updater and Mod organizer 2 config.
You need the GAMMA launcher fiels wich can be downloaded from theri shitcord, but if you are a boomer like me who doesn't want to make an aacount you can just download this somewhat older build off mediafire and it will update itself upon lauch to the newest version.
https://www.mediafire.com/folder/agyul0e6fbban/STALKER_GAMMA
Then you need Anomaly itself which can be downlaoded here:
https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly/downloads
Unpack both into their seperate folders and then point the MO2 from the gamma folder towards the Anomaly folder and from there it will be basically autopilot.
I enjoyed the A-life in this and how the best parts of the original trilogy are expanded upon, specifically the hobo phase.
Weapon and armor upgrades feel siginifcant but you can even start out with some decent gear since you get a few points to spend on a new game.
I'd recommend tweaking the MCM settings to your liking though, stuff like dropped ammo amount and gear condition based on rank for example.
I also didn't like the brown and colorless look of the default install, reinstalling the grass and weater mods gives several options like spring, summer, autumn, winter etc.

Loli games
With the demo confirming Dragon's Dogma 2 is shit, even beyond lack of loli MC, let's talk about games that do let you play as a loli. Any recommendations for games not on this chart?
With mods Mount and Blade II: Bannerlord lets you play as a loli using base game assets. It's a pretty fun experience. During Early Access they actually had nipples and a barbie doll lower half, but this was changed near the final version. Since the same update made everyone's underwear part of their body, it's likely due to consoles than specifically anti-loli. Anyone know if there's a mod to restore these bodies? I haven't played in a year and I'm hoping for a new land mod to release in a playable state before giving another go with my new GPU.
Fallout 3, New Vegas, Skyrim and Fallout 4 all let you play as a loli with mods (3 also makes you play as a loli during a brief tutorial section). Unfortunately most clothing/armor doesn't really fit your character (at best she'll grow boobs) and only Fallout 4 has a mostly complete set of alternate models for clothing (I think there was also a mod for Skyrim to dynamically resize things but I have no idea what it was). Otherwise it works pretty well and is pretty fun. Only reason to play Fallout 4.
The demo for the new Alone in the Dark is a short prologue starring a little girl in a dress. Has anyone ripped the model/used cheat engine freecam/etc. to see if she's properly modeled or if the devs took the cowardly way out?

Worst video game titles
We often hear about the worst video games of all time, but what about the worst video game titles of all time?
Starting off with two of the most obvious ones
>Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days
That's pronounced "three hundred fifty eight over two". Yes, they want you to pronounce it "over" but didn't bother writing it as an over. It only "works" in Japanese because furigana can tell you its pronounced that way, but its dumb even there.
>Infinite Undiscovery
Either an "undiscovery" is "lost", which would mean total amnesia (even walking, potentially even breathing), or an "undiscovery" is "not a discovery", which means the name is saying everything within is nothing new.
(dis)honorable mention
>Idea no Hi
This one tries to make a English pun that does not actually work. The official name in "Day of the Idea" and 1: While "idea" in standard romanization, "イデア" isn't pronounced anything like the English "Idea" (as in thought) 2: "イデア" is a person, so the definite article here is just Engrish.

Asscreed Shadows delayed AGAIN
This just in, Assassin's Creed: Shadows has been delayed another two months from January 9th to March 20th. This comes directly after the report from "People Make Games"
who I'm not going to link to since they're massive faggots, where one of their support studios "Brandoville" is charged with abusing Indonesia developers to make assets for the upcoming game. Not to mention the outright fuckery going on with Sweet Baby Inc and general disrespect towards Japanese culture, and you have a game that's set to crash and burn when it releases this March.
This is on top of the Guillemot brothers desperately trying to retain control of the company and is trying to go private as the Tencent buyout has currently haulted according to Insider-Gaming. This is ON TOP of the failures of Star Wars, Avatar, Skull and Bones, and XDefiant with some of their failing projects far exceeding 100 million. Finally Ubisoft is likely to go private in 2025 with people within Ubisoft themselves believing that nothing will actually change if an acquisition would take place.
Ubisoft is
FUCKED

Marathon
now that (previous) /v/ is gone I can be honest:
yes I saw the nuMarathon and genuinely think it has potential
I liked the visuals, some of the gameplay, the music and I can tell it's going to build up on the lore from the previous games. also it's making me want to play the older games too just for the previous reason
>it's an extraction shooter
yea I know, always wanted to try that anyway

UMPC/Handheld thread
Old thread:
>>608298
News
>The Rog Ally has released, and it's.. fine. The claimed 2-3x performance boost was closer to 5%-30% and the custom GUI isn't anywhere near the level of the Deck
>The Edion in Osaka talked about last thread has set up a longer-term or possibly permanent Steam Deck display following a presumably successful 'trial market', Japan is now one of the few, if not only, countries to sell the Steam Deck at major retailers
>Computer and hardware manufacturer Orange Pi has soft-announced their first handheld after a leak. It reportedly accommodates both Linux/Windows, the device will either use a 7800U or a RK3588S processor for the higher-end model and will launch in October with three models costing between an estimated 1500元 ($220) and 3500元 ($500), though prices are not final. There is no publicly known name for the device yet
>Gaming analyst firm Omdia estimates Steam Deck has sold over 2,000,000 units so far, having sold 1,600,000 in 2021 alone, and will likely surpass 3,000,000 this year. This makes the SD not just the bestselling UMPC in history, but possibly majority of UMPC sales ever. The firm believes the device "will open the door to a new PC gaming product category"
Thread questions
>What do you own?
>What are you playing on it?

CES 2025 UPDATE
Lenovo Legion Go S will be the first non-Steam device to use the OS.
https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/593110/view/529834914570306831
A big takeaway here
>In addition, the same work that we are doing to support the Lenovo Legion Go S will improve compatibility with other handhelds. Ahead of Legion Go S shipping, we will be shipping a beta of SteamOS which should improve the experience on other handhelds, and users can download and test this themselves. And of course we'll continue adding support and improving the experience with future releases.
So they're now allowing users to download SteamOS directly, though it still sounds like it's a handheld-focused version of the OS.

Lesta Studio, dev & publisher of World of Warships & World of Tanks, seized by Russian gov't; Wargaming & Lesta CEOs arrested
Lesta is the World of Warships developer and publisher of World of Tanks in Russia, that is. Wargaming is the developer of World of Tanks and its Western publisher.
https://archive.is/5uZe9
>MOSCOW, April 26 - RIA Novosti. The Prosecutor General's Office is asking the Tagansky Court of Moscow [for a Russian ban] for carrying out extremist activities an association consisting of Lesta owner Malik Khatajaev and Wargaming.net owner Viktor Kislyy, as well as to recover 100% of Lesta's shares for state revenue, according to court materials available to RIA Novosti.
>"Statement of claim of the Deputy Prosecutor General of Russia to ban the activities of the association, consisting of V. V. V. Kisloy and M. A. Khatazhaev, and the appeal to the state income shares in the authorized capital of the defendants", - stated in the materials. These are the shares of Lesta LLC, Lesta Games Agency LLC, and Lesta Games Moscow LLC.
>The Prosecutor General's Office believes that Kislyy and Khatajaev constitute an extremist association and carry out extremist activities on the territory of Russia.
In the lawsuit, the applicant attached publications with the headlines “The military game World of Tanks is against Russia's special operation”, “How Wargaming survived 25 years - and coped with the war in Ukraine”, “Wargaming launched a charity project with Ukrainian content in games to raise money for reanimation vehicles”.
Stuff like this has been happening in Russia for awhile since the invasion, it started with targeting bakeries and factories at first, but as the war has gone on they've been plundering larger and larger corporations. This has to be one of the most public government thefts.

CURRENT TASKS:
1. OPERATION MAX REVIVE
Rebuild the board's userbase and activity through simple, but effective methods
1. Post across the entire board
Activity creates activity. Use threads you like, make new ones if topics don't exist. Easy examples are Drawthreads and Friday Night threads, go request or draw something right now.
2. Recruit and recover lost or potential anons
Use this site's OC and features to entice anons if necessary when recruiting, just inform that we are alive.
Here's some sites and links with at least some confirmed anons that can be recruited again:
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/8chotwheels
https://steamcommunity.com/groups/SSAVCH

https://rpgcodex.net/
https://old.reddit.com/r/KotakuInAction/
Somewhere on Telegram
Just searching up GG or 8chan-related terms on certain places/sites can get you possible results.
3. Make your own OC/Memes/Content
Doesn't matter what it is even if its just simple edits or full-on drawings or webms, just make it and have fun. Ask in thread for software recs if necessary.
4. Encourage or create fun events, activities, projects, etc.
Think things like 8chanmania, weekly streams, re-translation projects, demo days, or zzz's gaming magazine for example. If you want to do something, try making or reviving it, it can't hurt and these things are great for the board.
5. Use other boards
All it takes for a board to grow is at least 2 dedicated anons using it. Don't be afraid to make a post, check places periodically, shill, or what have you. Don't force discussions to boards, just encourage the usage of them.
2. OPERATION TRAJAN:
Collect and catalog all of the various localization and censorship accounts of past video games into a single repository from these sources:

What racing game are you playing?
recently played Cruis'n World on the MAME emulator. I put a lot of quarters in this arcade game as a kid, but I never beaten it until now.
No joke, the game literally ends in outer space with Bill Clinton in a jacuzzi surrounded by two bitches. One of those bitches is Hillary Clinton in a bikini.

How should gamers fight problems with modern games?
Greentext at least one problem and find solutions to the problem.
1) Bland "brown and bloom" colors and graphics, uncreative, uninviting, and visually unstimulating, that reduce atmosphere, emotional impact, and uniqueness
2) Crunch culture where employees work long hours under intense pressure to meet deadlines and deliver products, causing burnout and decreased product quaality
3) Degradation of the hobby as gaming became international and developers adapted design to cater to broader demographics
4) Digital rights management that requires online server authentication, or negatively impacts game performance, or limits how you can use the game
5) Diversity, equity, and inclusion biasing hiring processes at the expense of skills which reduces studio performance, competence, and morale
6) Excessive DLC that fragments the gaming experience, locking content behind additional purchases instead of including it in the initial release
7) Exploiting, cheating, and hacking online like aimbots and wallhacks, offline players usually know each other which discouraged local cheating due to social consequences
8) Game-as-a-service models, subscription and cloud services for gaming where you (((own nothing and be happy)))
9) Hyper-realism instead of artistic and aesthetic style, making games look generic as they strive for similar fidelity and lose unique artistic identity
10) Input lag making games feel more unresponsive, particularly in genres like fighting games, first-person shooters, or platformers needing precise movements or combos
11) Kernel-level anticheat that violate privacy and increases the risk malicious actors exploit security vulnerabiltiies to infect gamers with malware
12) Limited physical releases where many modern games are digital-only, and companies assume digital distribution, the PS5 Pro even lacks a disc drive
13) Loading screen saturation that frequently interrupts gameplay, wastes time, and breaks immersion
14) Monetization, microtransactions, loot boxes, and gambling mechanics and how developers design games around compulsive spending of players instead of delivering quality content
15) Movie games requiring significant "Triple A" budgets and minimizing player agency by sidelining gameplay and how they interact with the game world
16) Pay-to-win mechanics that let players gain advantages by purchasing powerful items or upgrades, undermining fair competition
17) Reduced challenge to cater to broader demographics as gameplay is de-emphasized
18) Releasing games incomplete with significant bugs then patching day one or over time with frequent updates instead of quality assurance, pre-ordering games encourages this too
19) System requirements where modern games require powerful hardware, making them less accessible, or large large with long download times so customers buy storage to play
20) Woke game narratives and character designs, prioritizing diversity over game quality, lacking positive role models, and abandoning game audiences for (((modern audiences)))

Ecco the Dolphin and Ecco: The Tides of Time remasters announced alongside new Ecco game
Apparently Ecco and Ecco Tides of Times are getting a remaster by Ed Annunziata and most of the original Hungarian team at Novotrade/Appaloosa. I don't know how they're going to remaster the game considering how well the visuals hold up, although I HOPE they don't make everything 3D in UE5 and call it a day. After the remasters are finished they're going to be making a new sequel to Ecco, although they're not working on the 3D Dreamcast game Defender of the Future or it's cancelled sequel, Sentinels of the Universe, which I believe are much more deserving of a facelift and mechanical fixes.
Then again, Ed didn't work on those.

Animated PNG thread - Rebuilt Geocities Edition
Suggested from
>>1031266 in the sexy sprite thread
The idea is very simple: You take your GIFs & convert them to APNG.
Why would you want to do this? Let me explain
>APNG is usually smaller in file size vs. GIF while still maintaining the same quality
>thus, APNG images in posts endlessly loop without having to click on them due to the smaller filesizes.
<GIF animations not so much even with the fewer frames of animation
Based on my testings, here is what I have determined to get working APNG animations on the posts in this site
>must not exceed above 25.00 KB in file size
>must not exceed above above 220px x 220px in image size
Use this website to convert your GIFs to APNGs:
https://ezgif.com/gif-to-apng
Then repost them if they meet the above criteria.

Anon's Bizarre Adventure AKA /v/ makes an RPG maker game - New people edition
Seeing that we have an influx of new users, I thought it is a good idea to bring back this project. (I copied an old OP by one of the anons so I hope they don't mind)
For those that don't know, here’s how it works.
Everyone is taking turns downloading the newest version of the game, making contributions before reuploading it for someone else to work on it. Only one person can actively work on it at a time. This is because if two people make overlapping changes to the database, scripts or switches, they will conflict resulting in one person having to redo all their work. Changes to the map and events can be copy-pasted from one version of a project to another so you’re free to work on new maps and new events if its not your turn and add them to the current version of the game once it is your turn.
It should work like this. OP posts newest version of the map. The first person (Anon #1) to respond to OP stating that he’s going to work on it becomes the active game dev. Once Anon #1 finishes and re-uploads it, the first person to respond to him gets to work on it. So on and so forth. Additionally, whenever you re-upload a new version, reply to the anchor post, it’ll make things a lot easier.
General Rules
>Don’t mess with maps, events or anything else you didn’t make. Although, adding minor stuff like a connection between two areas or fixing bugs and typos is all fine.
>If you’re ok with others editing your stuff, leave a note saying so.
>You’re free to add characters and the like, to the inter-dimensional tavern.
>You’re also free to make changes to game settings, unless its something we’ve agreed upon (we’ll probably do this via a poll)
Current version of the game:
v. 0591
https://mega.nz/file/itd1mCTJ#pgEQ3oQQWOgDCO_VLZGs8m1p_OQABjTj8tZ4YNobvlo
If you have a new version please notify us so that we can add it in the next OP.

Here’s a good tutorial series if you want to learn how to use it. inb4 jewtube
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzqt1PzBxxQ&list=PLzevVXwTX9wipsdJnTsuzUoCLb9v5npat[Embed]
>What about RPG Maker MV?
We decided in the last thread that we’re using VX Ace. We’re not changing this again. Get it out of your head right now. If you made content in MV you’ll have to back port it to VX Ace. It sucks, but we’re not doing any more engine changes.
>Why don't you fucks use version control?
Like RPG Maker MV, we tried that and the project died. Nobody wanted to learn git. It can't be helped. Plus someone needs a
(((premium))) account if we want the project to be private.
>Are you guys affiliated with [PUT ANY OTHER /v/ PROJECT HERE]
No, the group creating this game is not a stable dev group and is only comprised of random anons who get interested in the project enough to start developing is.
>Add X to the Game!
Suggestions are fine, but if you want something added to the game. DO IT YOURSELF. Its not that hard.
>What should I add?
Go nuts, add whatever the hell you like! (However, please keep in mind that if the filesize of this project gets too large it’ll become unruly to work with. So please be somewhat conservative when adding large music or .ogv files.)
>Is OP a faggot?
Yes. Forever and ever.

Monsterous, Dark, & Evil Modes/Forms.
Alternative form in Vidya Games that allow you to assume power with a sinister take and appearance to match. I've been thinking about games that allow you to turn into a monster since I enjoyed playing PSP2I's beast and loved using nanoblast to turn into a werewolf and the rare occasion I managed to use dark nanoblast to extend and become even more vicious. I'm looking for games that give you the feeling of turning into something more feral and vicious. Even better if it's something non human. I guess alternative versions of characters also count as well if the fifth image is anything to go by.

I grew up with that game and the sounds and animations it had were just wonderful to watch and listen.

Playing on Permadeath
Hey /v/iggers.
I recently pirated The Last of Us 2. Wasn't a fan of the first game and the sequel seems to have way too many cutscenes, but I really wanted to try it out for a long time since I heard that it has really good stealth and the game is about as gorgeous as games can look. Anyways, there are a ton of options available to you before starting, one of them being related to how death works; you can set it to where you have the traditional reset at a recent checkpoint, reset at the chapter beginning, reset at the act beginning, or reset at the very beginning. I set it to the act beginning, though this did little to discourage me from inpulsively jumping off a cliff to test whether it had an invisible wall.
I wanted to ask whether you think there are times where it shouldn't be an option and that a game should force permadeath, or if not quite that, some sort of limit to the amount of times you can die like in arcade games. Do you think it heightens tension to an exciting level or to the point of annoyance?

MGSV is peak atmosphere and peak gaming
Look I've played them all (including MSX) and love them to bits. MGSV isn't even my favorite. But it is still one of my favorite gaming experiences.
I still believe it has some of the best and smoothest controls and is a true sandbox. What I mean by that is there are a lot of games that are technically sandboxes, but the level design of MGSV is an actual sandbox as in you can problem solve using every single tool in the game.
When it comes to the story I know it technically has a lot of flaws if you analyze it, but did someone else feel really emotionally attached to everything? It is a little strange that MGSV was a game that kind of made me feel a lot more emotions than a lot of full blown RPGs I've played with a lot of character development.

Not Enjoying Games Anymore?
This is sort of a meta thread, so feel free to remove it if it's the wrong place for this. Anyway, have you all ever become burnt out on video games? I've felt like recently no matter what I play, I just can't enjoy it. I get the initial enjoyment of starting the game that I've been thinking about for a very long time, but I just don't have the reason or motivation to care to see it through, and the more I force myself to continue the game, the more I hate it.
The last time I enjoyed a game was when I was playing through the MGS series. I racked up a list of things I wanted to play or replay because at that moment, I was solely focused on playing MGS. After I finished, I took a short break and decided I wanted to play DMC, since I tried it a long time ago and thought maybe I'd enjoy it on another attempt. I started out liking it, but slowly began to hate it, and eventually I dropped it. I went on to replay Nier after that because I remember very fondly those characters and wanted to check it out again, but didn't have the investment to see past the first few hours. Then a friend bought me Death Stranding, another game I disliked before, but decided I would give another go. After about 5 hours, I lost steam for it. I then tried to play Thief, a brand new game, and while I loved the game's atmosphere and think it's amazingly designed, I quit that one, too, because it just didn't spark anything in me. Now I've been fiending for a Sekiro replay after getting more into samurai films, and Sekiro is one of my favorites, but even now I feel like I'd rather be playing something else, like Ghost of Tsushima or Nier.
On the flip side, I played Shantae somewhere in between those games and was hooked, I loved it, and I'm replaying Morrowind right now because it's a game that's near to my heart and am similarly in love with it. I know I can like games, but for some reason, I just can't enjoy the ones I feel so interested in playing. There's just something missing from me that's not letting me enjoy new games. I've mostly just resigned to doing my other hobbies by now. It makes me very frustrated, though, like something's broken about me. It's as if I like the idea of playing these games than actually playing them. I want to like them, but I just can't.
Have you anons ever experienced this issue? How did you fix it?

I finally beat Aria, Bolt, Monk and Nocturna all zones modes recently, in that order. It felt great, clocking in around ~100 hours of playtime in Crypt. Only got around 20 hours in Rift, the songs on hard difficulty really get
difficult after a point. Charming rhythm games, I regret not learning about them until recently.

I have 100 games on Steam which I figure should last me a long time--outside of a few upcoming sequels/DLCs to games listed, I won't be spending any more on games until I've finished everything here. This is actually doable as most of them aren't super long. Stardew Valley is left out because I'm already planning to play it at a relaxed pace as I play other games.

Mario wasn't a wink at the camera shallow "how do you do fellow kids" attempt at normalizing the worship of corporate tech products. Mario didn't fly round the galaxy in a ship shaped like a fucking NES, his brand was himself. Astro Bot can't even exist in its own internally coherent setting because the setting is literally crossover corporate fanfiction, the setting is the DIGITAL STOREFRONT OF THE SONY CORPORATION.
Also this attempt to normalize mUh CuTe RoBoTS is clearly an attempt to brainwash gen alpha into accepting faceless ai powered surveillance drones into their homes for the benefit of Great Israel. Even the setting of Astro Bot is a corporate psyop presenting a world where machines=good organics=bad. They designed Astro to look like Musk and Thiel's new faceless robot drones that will displace 99% of workers in the next decade, they're priming you for domestication and submission to Palantir.

Help me /v/. I was remembering this one moral choice from saints row 4. I thought it was funny how people would seriously debate this. However my joy turned to despair as I realized, I cannot think of a moral choice that was more talked about.
No seriously, Think about it. People were arguing this quite passionately. It bothers me as I am 99% sure this was just a gag to make fun of moral choices in games. It should not be the most talked about one.

Games with the "Soldier of Fortune" spirit
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.

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.

Dragon's Dogma Online
Dragon's Dogma Online was a free to play MMO, it played a lot like DDDA but with some changes and limitations expected from a MMO meant to run on the PS3, but there was still a lot to see and do in this game, plenty of content, enemy variety, vocations, etc.
Dragon's Dogma Online was shut down a long time ago but there's an ongoing restoration effort and a lot of progress has been achieved in the last months, the game is playable and a lot of quests and features have been restored, however there's still a significant amount of things to restore, despite that there's enough content here to keep you busy for months.
Currently there's 2 private servers one can play on, ddon.org and dogmarising.org, for the most part dogmarising.org will offer you a better and smoother experience but ddon.org does have a bit more people.

428 Shibuya Scramble's creator is crowdfunding a spiritual successor
>428 Shibuya Scramble's Executive Producer, co-director and original scenerio writer Jiro Ishii started crowdfunding for a live-action adventure game where you take control of multiple characters simultaneously taking place on Shibuya
>Jiro Ishii once again will serve as producer and original scenario writer
>The story will be written by Yukinori Kitajima, who wrote BBK/BRNK, Hamatora and Under the Dog
>Game will have Masakazu Arai and Fumio Kitagami (Minoru Minorikawa from 428 Shibuya Scramble) as cast members
>Crowdfunding is an "all or nothing" meaning if the game doesn't reach its minimum crowdfunding goal they'll give all the money back
>It's important to note that this is the second time Jiro Ishii does a spiritual successor to 428 Shibuya Scramble, back when he was working with Level-5 he served as the producer/original scenario writer for Time Travelers for 3ds which also had similar gameplay to 428 and multiple times it's stated to take place in the same universe
>Jiro Ishii is also at the moment serving as the main writer for Depth Loop, the sequel to the visual novel Raging Loop, it was revealed on September last year and it will take place in an underwater facility, other than that no info has been shared

Fallout
You ever had a second playthrough change your opinion on a game? I just did. I realized 2 days ago I had never done a retard run of fallout 1, so I did. Fallout 1 is still an amazing game but all my other playthroughs had a tough beginning but easier endgame. This retard with a knife though was easily cutting through rad scorpions and raiders like it was nothing. It wasn't until later when I tried to fight supermutants that the problems started. Even then the knife wasn't really the problem, it was more about me getting 1 shot by gatling guns.
It did make me wonder about a lot of things. I do not think it is possible to beat the game 1st time as a retard. I have no idea how you would know without meta knowledge that the cathedral is where the master lives. It was also this playthrough that I found out that drugs can stack. You can take multiple mentats and just be a normal person until the drugs wear out. That does kinda go against the spirit of the playthrough but it did allow me to speak to Harold properly. You can also just take 2 rad-x and be immune to radiation. Would have been great to know before I lost an hour of progress to instant death radiation.
I am also amazed by how much dialogue they wrote for the low intelligence players. Some of it I assume was intended for players who were using drugs and got their intelligence lowered. Even then though I was seeing unique dialogue even up to the final boss. I was expecting a bit more of a speech from a man who just lost everything to a fucking idiot with a sledge and a rocket launcher but having anything is already good.
Now I am just wondering if I want to replay 1 again or should I try playing 2? I have tried 2 before and it never grips me like the first game does.

SMW ROMHACKS (and other romhacks I guess)
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.

hello 8/v/ I would like to discuss a topic that was impossible to talk about on deadchan because of certain schizos. that subject is trends in sexualization in vidya, specifically in asian countries. historically japan has had a reputation for sexualized content in vidya. you would look at games like dead or alive xtreme or oneechanbara and think "this kind of game could only be made in japan." lately though it seems like this trend has been reversing. jap games are not as sexy as they used to be. dead or alive no longer has pole dancing. the titties in anime titty games are no longer as big or as exposed as they used to be. many people would blame this on western censorship, but I don't think that's entirely the case. you can see this trend even in games with little exposure in the west, especially in the realm of gachashit. if you look at popular jap games like umamusume or gakuen idolm@ster all you will find are safe and conservative designs. the trend may be most apparent with dead or alive penis vacation. both the new characters and swimsuit designs are noticeably more restrained than what you saw in doax2 and wouldn't be out of place in an idolshit game.
japan has always had a preference towards cuteness, even over sexiness, and I think this current trend is just a continuation of this preference. it may even be that highly sexualized characters were actually because of western influence, and now that the west has become gay and pozzed japan is returning to its natural interests. it's also worth noting that while characters are officially becoming less sexualized, fan art of them is as degenerate as ever. it may be that rather than being completely opposed to sexualized characters, the japs want ones that are presented as "good girls" in the source material, but whore themselves out to old men in fan works. I think there may be a link to this behavior with idolshit fans. they are known for being obsessed with the idea that their favorite idol is pure and uninterested in men, but then do shit like making them touch their cum at handshake events. many currently popular jap games are idolshit themed so it is likely that such behavior is being imported.
now the other aspect of this that I find interesting is that this trend does not seem to be replicated in other asian countries. korea and china have always been seen as simple copy cats of japan, but in this case they seem to have diverged. games like nikke, brown dust 2, and azure lane are full of hypersexualized designs even beyond what used to be expected from japan. characters from these games look like strippers and even have piercings and tattoos. even in terms of personalities characters explicitly want sex and try to jump the player character. perhaps this is also the influence of american culture. it's also interesting that blue archive, which is developed in korea but targeted at japan, is far more conservative than other korean games.
what do you think about this phenomenon? do you miss obscene anime titties? do you think it is a passing fad and they will return? will you switch to gook and chink games if they deliver when japs won't?

This is a digital dm. It can run any campaign you give it
and it doesn't seem as restricted like other chat AIs. It goes along with some weird shit. Fantasy, modern day, sci fi. If you can think of it, it can do it if you give it some form of goal. I haven't played around with this part enough, but I assume you can make it stick to different rule sets or game mechanics if you explain it.
Fill out the top box with the rules and world building. it will generate a paragraph of setting and other characters. You can then tell it what you'll do next or just hit continue and it will keep the story going without your input (often creating actions on your part). If you don't like something, you can directly edit the story text. Just delete a few lines here and there or rewrite it yourself and it parses that text as it continues the story.
If you click generate template on the tracked info, it will keep a track of inventory, stats, character relationships and whatever else you want to write in there like a notepad.

I absolutely hate this garbage and I fucking hate Blizzard for making this lazy awful shit popular.
What I love the most about this color coded RNG bullshit is the fact that not only are you getting the same weapon with different stats, which just waters down the weapon, instead of adding actual variety like a different weapon model with the same moveset, is the fact that you constantly get lower tier colored weapons that have higher DPS than top tier colored ones.
Not even a skin to differentiate these weapons as well, absolutely immersion breaking and lazy to the very core.

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

It's Guild Wars 1's 20th anniversary and the devs dropped the first content update in years just yesterday. Has anyone here been playing?
There's also been some community event going on encouraging people to group up together and go through the base came campaign (Prophecies) in the span of a month, focusing on a few different areas every week.
https://returntogw1.com/
As someone who started playing very late during its lifespan, I don't think I've ever seen the game so alive. it's nice to be able to find randos to queue for missions with.
We could organize something if anyone here's interested in playing through it again.

Flavor of the Month games
This is not a "let's bitch about the industry" thread, we have enough of those. Many of these games aren't even necessarily bad, this is more about those games that are huge briefly, then vanish completely.
FOTM is the vidya version of a #1 song that's on the charts for a week. Some of these games deserve to be remembered, or at least inspected for why they were so big yet had no staying power. Partially, I'm making this thread because I struggle to remember many of them.

It Takes Two to Tango
Alone on a Tuesday night? Pathetic.
SIKE
We all have friends here, don't we? Above all, we have at least one close friend with which we play co-op games with, especially of the two-player variety, right?
What I am getting at is to post some two-player (Co-op) games you really enjoyed, even if you don't have anyone to play it with at the moment. Who knows, you might just find something you and an anon could share? Then NEITHER of you will be virgins!
Obvious example would be Portal 2 which had a very competent puzzle mode for two players, plus some extensive modding capabilities. Another is "It Takes Two" which was made by Mr. "Fuck the Oscars" and it performed pretty well in the box office.
Got any other recommendations?

XSeed: "Senran Kagura Would not Prosper in the West in This Day and Age"
This really needs its own thread because of how right
STUPID this shit is. This is like banning RPGs on the Sega Saturn levels of stupid, all because of retarded twitter/reddit/discord politics. These people can't see outside their little Californian bubble, and it pisses me the fuck off. The console game market is run by people who hate games, that's the only excuse I can think of when explaining this malicious ignorance.
It's been proven time and time again that these games sell as long as there's a good gameplay structure. Even with an above average gameplay structure, Stellar Blade selling over a million copies in the past year alone PROVES that now is the best time to release Senran Kagura
IN SPITE of gaming journalists and the reddit/twitter/discord grooming audience.
Not only that, but the entire mobile market with games like Blue Archive and NIKKE is making millions of dollars in capital. You could make the market that "Oh it's just whales", but I would argue that's not a legitimate excuse when Stellar Blade sells over a million copies and other games like fucking Capes don't even sell close to that. That's not to mention Flintlock that has its numbers inflated by Gamepass only sold half the amount of Stellar Blade with a much bigger marketing campaign.
There's no excuse for this level of stupidity, but what can we do about it? Maybe we can contact shareholders and have them communicate our issues through them? There's no excuse for this level of incompetence, although I'd personally argue that it's maliciousness considering everything I've talked about.

Intravenous 2
I played that game the Jewish man shilled
It's actually fucking amazing
It feels like a natural evolution of Hotline Miami where there's stealth elements added, on True difficulty and above enemies will kill you just as quickly as they do in Hotline Miami but you have noise and light mechanics, which don't just have you avoid detection but actually base the entire combat system on a sort of cat-and-mouse chase between you and the AI. Unless you have low caliber semi-sonic bullets and a good suppressor, enemies will hear you across the map whenever you fire, so you have to constantly reposition in firefights against AI that are always trying to flank, surround or ambush you. But the AI doesn't know exactly where you are, it just knows where it heard the sounds of gunfire coming from, or where radios or other AI told it you are, so if you're fast and sneaky enough even in a gunfight you can take out entire groups of enemies by counter-ambushing their ambushes and rushes
This game genuinely has some of the best isometric gun combat I've ever played
I also like how customizable everything is, even from early in the game you can make some extremely good guns if you just experiment a little. For example you can turn a otherwise cheap shitty single-shot rifle that you have access to as soon as you can buy guns into a VERY strong sniper rifle, or you can deck out some of the pistols and turn them into basically SMGs or pocket-snipers themselves, making them the equivalent of weapons that would normally take up your primary weapon slot. You can slap a drum mag and auto-fire onto a semiauto shotgun and make an absolute street-sweeper, you can deck out early SMGs with scopes and longer barrels and turn them into a marksman rifle. It's great
The actual stealth is really good too, on the True difficulty AI are very responsive to anything you do so, for example, if they notice a patrolling guard go missing they'll start searching the level for you even if they never see a body. There's a variety of devices you can buy for either stealth or loud gameplay but they have very limited uses per level, usually not more than 2-4, so you have to make them count. There's vents, windows, interactive light sources etc. everywhere to the point it feels like an isometric Splinter Cell game if you're going pure stealth
The music is pretty good too. It's not as good as Hotline Miami, but it's good. There's different tracks for different levels of alertness, and a decent selection of music. The combat music is really good imo, it's fast paced and pumped up, it's fun to listen to. It's also nice to know in stealth if an enemy is searching for you because the music suddenly gets more tense
And the game's replay ability is phenomenal because there's a ton of levels, a branching storyline, and the way you approach each level changes completely if you dedicate yourself fully to stealth or to combat
I really like this game, I highly recommend it

Dragon's Dogma 2: CapJews
So it seems that the launch of this game was piss poor due to the bad performance issues and normalfags waking up to the DRM/Microtransactions shit. Still there's a good game to be found, and I hope everyone is enjoying the game as much as I am.
Just recently capcom released a new patch where they added a New Game function in addition to a FPS Lock for console fags. In addition to being able to get your own house earlier in the game, and changing Art of Metamorphosis to 99 instead of 2 in the Pawn Guild, thus eliminating the need for microtransactions altogether.
Sadly it seems the performance issues won't be release until later this year since it seems capcom needs some more time to cook the game and have it working with DLSS3 and other techniques to make the game actually run at a bearable framerate.
Still with all of the complaints they got, hopefully they can have some options to fix the performance issues by using the GPU a bit more in towns. Still, have you been enjoying the game /v/?

Gauntlet
I have been playing a lot of Gauntlet:dark legacy lately and have been having a lot of fun. I think this game is the most "Gamey" out of all of them. The only other games that would be as gamey would be old arcade games that didn't even pretend to have a story. It is simple yes but it is still a joy to explore the levels. I also just love the presentation of it all. The booming voice of the old wizard makes for a great announcer, all the characters are just fantasy stereotypes taken to an extreme. I would complain about the slowdown in the hub but I have no idea if that is on the original gamecube or if its just my emulator acting up.
It is making me wonder why they dont make another gauntlet game. Then I remember that there was one back in 2014 but no one gives a shit about it. Probably wont make a sequel to that either, Arrowhead is much too busy with helldivers. How come buying the bundle is cheaper than buying gauntlet separately?

IKEMEN/Mugen
For eight (probably has been eight. Might be more. I don't remember.) years I've had this shitheap on my storage. I've recently upgraded my maintained 8mugen collection to IKEMEN, and I've thrown a shitload of characters into it over the years. Most, if not all, of the original 8mugen collection is still there. (Second pic is the original screenpack pic to jog your memory.) It's fifteen gigabytes and about 479 characters big.
This means sharing it will be a difficulty.
Only would be worth it if there's interest or any anons around who actually remember this shit. I changed the skin because there was no Ikemen compatible version. Picrel is a bit outdated as some characters that have black slots are bugged and needed fixing. Has a bunch of hidden/ai characters. Latter is completely or mostly unplayable (for humans.) Former is compressed into other characters. (gotta use the 'd' and 'w' keybinds set in the options menu on certain characters to access them. Like Goku. Neat Ikemen feature.)
Also, IKEMEN/Mugen thread I guess.
Quick FAQ
<OP Install specific
>Is [Character] in your install?
I dunno. Flip a coin. It's 479 characters. There's 21 slots left so there is space for more. But it's already fucking 15 gigabytes. Technically infinite AI-only slots and multi-character slots. But they're all bound to one character. So Saber has Saber and Saber Alter bound to her, for instance.
>Why the fuck is [Character] and not [Character] in your install?!
If it's a matter of taste, I don't give a shit. If you want to include a certain roster, feel free. If lots of additions are made I'll upgrade the screen to 704 characters.
If certain characters are shittier than others, suggest/add the better versions to replace the old ones.
>Does everything work?
Good question. Most characters, yes. Most stages, yes. There are numerous characters with small bugs that require text file changes to fix. I'm not even aware of them all.
>Why share this if you don't have a link for it?
Fifteen gigabytes. My upload speed is dogshit so I'm not going to upload it if no anons give a shit. It will take all day for me to upload.
>Why now?
With this burst of activity, maybe someone will remember and will want to continue.
>Could we shit out our own Saltybet?
If I remember correctly, this was originally an attempt at doing so.
>Multiplayer?
Yes. Gotta use the same version of the game. I'm not privy to the details, but the same characters/stages are likely what needs to match.
For update purposes I have a file structure going on inside the chars directory, separating up characters. No real rhyme or reason to this- but typically it terminates at 2.5 gigs or >50 characters. Whichever comes first.
<General
>What is MUGEN?
MUGEN is a freeware proprietary 2d fighting game engine developed by Elecbyte. The engine is written in C and uses the SDL Library, and stages, characters, screenpacks, life bars, and even engine modifications have been made by the community. Although full games have been made in MUGEN, the engine has been widely used to make one's dream fighting game roster and make cartoons fight anime and shit like that. Most "recent" version is 1.1b.
http://mugenguild.com/forum/topics/download-mugen-latest-release-1-1-official-release-8613-105841.0.html
If you've ever seen a shitty youtube clip of Peter Griffin beating the shit out of Mario in a fighting game setting, it was probably MUGEN.
>What about online multiplayer?
Although base MUGEN does not have online multiplayer, a fork of MUGEN called IKEMEN has implemented online multiplayer. (Both players have to have the same IKEMEN full game for online to work properly)
>What is IKEMEN?
IKEMEN is basically the same thing as MUGEN but built newer/open source. Use IKEMEN GO. It's a continuation of ol' Ikemen.
>Cool, how do I set it up?
There are thousands of guides on the internet on how to manually add characters, stages, and screenpacks (drag character folders into 'chars' folder, stage files into 'stages' folder ,screenpack files/folder into 'data' folder, etc.; then edit select.def), but if you want it to be done a bit easier, then use Vselect.
>Does [Character] exist?
Probably. Many, including most niche, anime characters are tiny sprite shitfests (called JUS for easy identification) because that's easy to draw. Gotta use your search engine skills for this one.
>Links?

Going to try to hash out a format since this is very new for 8/v/.
>GFL2, the successor to many anons' favorite gacha circa 2017, is set to come to Global this fall with a closed beta test and prereg being held. (Read: they need that gweilo piggu money.) Luckily, they are cranking up that fanservice, of which I won't post yet because this OP needs to cover multiple titles.
>Unluckily, the CN state censor department has randomly struck a bunch of gachas with notices to sharpie over their character designs, the most notable of which was Snowbreak, enrager of BPD harpies everywhere, and Path to Nowhere. For the time being, Snowbreak has elected to use the localization toggle as a way to technically comply with said censor wave while still giving its playerbase what it wants; its future is still uncertain though as the devs continue to give Winnie the Pooh the finger. It seems like more and more that CN devs need to move off West Taiwan's mainland if they are to realize their creative and financial ambitions.
>In general, the global economic downturn has meant that the gacha market has slowly been contracting on mobile. PC, however, seems to be booming as devs find that players are willing to open their wallets without having to pay Apple and Gulag the provider tax.
>Arknights and Nikke are holding their 5.5 and 2nd anniversaries respectively, with both of them making big stinks about how they have new anime projects in the pipeline, never mind how all people remember from Blue Archive airing is Iori's toes getting sucked.
>Azur Promilia has started receiving age ratings in Taiwan.
>Mihomo has rebranded its Harvest Moon knockoff project from Asteweave Heaven to Petit Planet.
>Uma Musume is gearing up for a global release. When? Not clear. This is for umaanon though.
>Infinity Nikki is making waves as a big open world gacha that Soyny is banking on to get some crumbs after chasing off every Asian third party in existence.
>Persona X, the one with the hag, has been spotted on Steam's database as coming to Global on PC.
>Atelier Resleriana seems to want to apologize for Koei Tecmo's egregious globohomo censorship by parading the cast out for the obligatory summer event with bikini and swimsuit costumes. Unfortunately, it doesn't undo the fact that policore safety shorts are being slapped everywhere faster than pedophiles can slap children's asses.
>Tribe Nine is a thing. Came and went on Steam Next Fest.
>Dead or Alive: Penis Vacation is pushing out Prism onto consoles, but the original gacha still exists in its glory.
>I'm going to go out on a limb and start editorializing, because Netease has the unenviable task of trying to sell Destiny Rising to the gacha demographic and it is hilarious. Yes, I'm sure pronouns are going to help it compete with big titty anime girls.

talk about mods, fan games/passion projects, abandonware, etc. fun and complete experiences that don't cost anything.
mods that "require the base game" you bought for 5 dollars 20 years ago are acceptable, f2p games that have predatory mtx and lootbox mechanics are not.

Over the several iterations of the game, skill descriptions vary wildly. There's also the issue of skills behaving differently depending on the emulator. iROwiki is mostly complete but sometimes it's completely wrong, specially the pre-re version since those are no longer open for editing.

I've been playing the game on my Deck and its been a blast, it's a Space Harrier tribute that has branching paths like G Darius, the game also has a punching gimmick which is pretty neat since it can function as a risk-reward at times, the OST is also kickass.

Moving 4chan themed generals to /vg/
Hello /v/,
Due to the large amount of generals made by people who just copy and paste OPs, we will be requesting that going forward people take these premade threads be taken to
>>>/vg/. The rules will be the same as /v/, and will basically be an extension of /v/. That being said threads like the GamerGate thread, Drawthread, PC Hardware & News Thread, and other themed threads will be allowed to stay, this is specifically for threads like "/xivg/ - Final Fantasy General XIV - DawnTrail" where they have a set template and way they do things and really shouldn't be on /v/ since they're not really talking about the game and they're just copying and pasting the OPs from 4/vg/. I will also be working with the global administration and will be asking them to move certain threads on /v/ to /vg/. That being said, if any particular general wants to stay on /v/, I'm perfectly fine with that. In the end
>>>/vg/ is meant to be an extension of /v/ rather than a replacement. If you're just talking about games and make something like "Cuhrayzee Thread" and a normal post body then we will keep it on /v/. I look forward to working with all of you and making both /v/ and /vg/ the best it can be.
Thank you,

Super Robot Wars
Let's have one of these! Super Robot Wars Y has been officially announced and it's coming all the way onto most current-gen consoles and PC.
""Never played SRW?"" Consider this your conscription notice. Grab SRW V, X, or 30! are all available on Steam, fully localized in English and perfect for rookies. If you're daring, the community has translated a wealth of classic entries for you to explore.
""Never watched anime about giant robots?"" Irrelevant. These games are custom-built to onboard any new recruit into the glorious world of giant mech battles. There’s a 99.999% chance you’ll find something that clicks, whether it’s hot-blooded pilots screaming in unison, sleek robot designs, absurdly cool attacks or your favorite character being thrown in the shed.
""What's that? you don't like Giant Robots?"" Fuck that! You’re playing anyway! Don’t worry you’ll learn to enjoy them. Resistance is futile. Robots are inevitable. You’ll thank us for it later when you’re knee-deep in tactical genius and over the top crossovers.
Oh, and for the Iron Saga, Endless Frontier and Project X Zone enjoyers are also welcomed here!

Guide to a Happy Share Thread
>Requesters
1. Before requesting, search online and even use distributed search engines (e.g. InfraSearch, Opencola, YaCy, FAROO).
2. Look in linked sites at the top of the OP
3. Be as specific as possible. A title, release year and cover art will help.
4. Some links might purposely be misleading by having spaces, lines, keys & passwords split in the post. This includes torrent hashes.
a. If you see a string of characters (e.g. c12fe1c06bba254a9dc9f519b335aa7c1367a88a) with or without dashes, it is a magnet link.
b. If your bittorrent is shit, prepend magnet:?xt=urn:btih: to the string.
c. Find and Replace (sed/tr/awk) is your friend.
>Uploaders
1. Try to make sure whatever you post isn't infected with 15 different Russian crypto miners.
2. Please make sure your files actually work.
3. If your link is password protected, PLEASE provide it. This isn't Cicada 3301, nobody wants to play riddles.
4. If there are any special provisions in playing a game, such as requiring SmartSteamEmu or a cracked executable, don't assume everybody knows that and provide clear instructions.
5. Try to avoid uploading to sites that require an account or throttle download speed.
a. ESPECIALLY not websites that make you jump through hoops to setup an account. Again, nobody likes riddles.
b. Websites that limit you to one download at a time or every X number of hours should also be avoided.
6. No "Oh, you can find that on SLSK" or "This private tracker has the upload!". Don't defer to private communities and don't just tell somebody where the files are, actually share them!
Most importantly,
DO WHAT YOU WANT BECAUSE A PIRATE IS FREE.

Vidya Cheesecake
Before anyone says anything, THIS IS NOT A THREAD TO RAG ON RAZORFAG! I'm just using his post as an example because there seems to be this increasing narrative that vidya is not "allowed" to have any sort of cheesecake or fanservice in the title. And any game that "does" have this content "must" be a shit game by default.
Now personally, I disagree with this take. If a game is good, what exactly is the problem with including fanservice in the title? We're all adults so there shouldn't be an issue. And even then, what exactly is wrong with a game being fanservice focused? Take for example, DoA Xtreme. It's a shameless mini-game collection only designed to unlock new bikinis for the girls, but what's the problem with that as long as you're having fun with the mini-games and basically playing the "male equivalent" of a dollhouse sim. My bigger issue is that it seems like attempts to remove fanservice from games correlates almost with the "same time" game quality took a nose dive.
Now does this mean that "all fanservice" is good. No, of course not. One infamous game guilty of trying to sell itself solely on cheesecake was BMX XXX, and it failed horribly as the game itself was terrible. However is it "wrong" for a game to not include fanservice in some form? I would have to answer yes.
But what do you guys think? What's your takes on cheesecake and fanservice in vidya?

4chan refugee, don't know where to go, don't know what to do. Before the site died, I installed XP on an ancient PC I had lying around for the purposes of making it into pre-Vista gaming rig, strictly offline, of course. Much of my library fits the 98 and XP era, and I managed to get some games installed with GOG's offline installers. The reason why I'm bothering to make this thread, is that I want to know what source port and/or emulator is available to use, that's still compatible with XP. I don't expect much, already have ePSXe, Project64, and DosBox installed, just need to find what fits best. Another thing, I'm not holding my breath on it, is finding out how I can get some of my Steam games working. I heard of Goldberg Emulator, bit I never used anything like it.

Posting the best Kirby game
Just finished a replay of Kirby: Planet Robobot and I need to scream into the void that this game SLAPS. HAL really said “what if we made Return to Dream Land but injected it with mech suits, cyberpunk vibes, and a soundtrack that kicks your teeth in,” and it WORKED.
The robot armor isn’t just a gimmick — it changes based on your copy ability, and every single one feels like a power trip. Jet mode? You're flying through a shmup level. Spark mode? You become a walking Tesla coil of death. The pacing is tight, the level design is clever, and the amount of polish is absurd. Also shoutout to that final boss theme that ascends directly into the heavens and takes your soul with it.
And the lore? Oh buddy. It's Kirby, so naturally the last hour goes from “haha cute pink ball go brr” to “AI god assimilates a planet and becomes cosmic malware.” Peak.
I love Forgotten Land, but Robobot might still be peak 2D Kirby. HAL needs to stop playing and port this thing to Switch already.
Anyone else think this is the most underrated Kirby?

Warframe & Pandering
I just need a way to vent about this frustration. Warframe's 1999 update takes you back to the year 1999 in a timeline where Albrecht Entrati introduced warframes early by injecting the Helminth strains into people at this time. Main group is The Hex. Now we get to the most recent addition to this update. Adding more of these protoframes. And the issue with one in particular.
The warframe Temple & his protoframe, Flare. DE decided they should both be officially "nonbinary". Why? Hell if I know. There's no lore reason & Flare is even referred to as they before he became infected. What further muddies this is his strain created a sentient guitar called Lizzie that is literally part of the Helminth. She refers to herself in plural form because the Helminth is part of the Infested hivemind. So you'd assume Flare is like this because he's part of the hivemind now but as I said already that can't be the case. If you're going to do this kind of thing then at least implement it in the story to have some amount of excuse. Not just shoving it in like Dragon Age Veilguard did recently. Look how it turned out for them.
And just as a bonus annoyance, you still get banned if you refer to Nezha as a trap.

I fucking loathe difficulty sliders. They are constantly used by inferior developers with no balls to make casual experiences that can adapt to the widest possible crowd, and to easily avoid actually balancing and properly, carefully designing all scenarios around the game.
It shouldn't be up to player to choose difficulty. At most, the player should choose an harder special condition mode like Ironman, limited saves, survival mechanics/bars or 1 hit kill runs, but the idea that the game design should be compromised by modifiers into adapting to the player is utter shite.
It's the player that should adapt to the game design to progress through the game, but cowardly developers.
It even ruins the day to those players who aren't retards when the hardest mode is some trash mode with super tanky enemies because it's usually very hard to find the "intended" difficulty mode agreed upon to be what the developers designed he game around.

Cyberpunk 2077
Why the did they nerf this gun so badly? There's plenty of shit that's arguably just as broken as pre 2.0 Comrade's Hammer in the game right now, but you don't see CDPR nerfing those. It went from being one of my favorite weapons to me literally never using it. It didn't need to nuke everything in one hit, sure, but they could have kept the wall piercing capabilities. Thanks a lot, CDPR. Great job. Faggots. Also, handguns kinda just feel weaker overall.

UNBEATABLE demo
https://store.steampowered.com/app/2240620/UNBEATABLE/
https://youtu.be/XwKFOZeJukA
We're really eating good this year, rhythm bros. I enjoyed UNBEATABLE white label a while back, even if it was not really well optimized. I hope devs took the feedback and made things better for this demo. Haven't had the opportunity to play it yet, but I figured I could make a thread about it before I get home and try it later today.
Between this game, Yunyun Syndrome Rhythm Psychosis, Rift Of The Necrodancer, Pastel Parade, Bits&Bops and of course Rhythm Heaven, 2025-2026 are shaping up to be really good years for groovers like me.
YOU LOVE RHYTHM GAMES RIGHT?

WOTR and unity modding
I've been considering trying out WOTR, but my tism demands certain things when I play crpgs related to Classic DnD:
>Modability
I'm not seeing a lot of mods for character options like Kingmaker had. Is modding this not as easy as other unity games, or was modding just not as popular for this title? Are there recommended mods?
>Crafting
I see they added crafting potions and scrolls, but not magic items or weapons. Are the only options for simulating this using cheats?
>The random dungeons
Is Midnight Isles any good, or is it as lazy as the Kingmaker random dungeon crawl was? I don't want to have a character get feared through doors/walls.

We're now in one of the longest gaps between mainline KH games. If KH4 comes out next year, they'll tie the the seven-year gap between Dream Drop Distance to Kingdom Hearts III. I miss major games being a regular occurrence, we've been almost exclusively getting flash and mobileshit for a decade plus now and it does not help the last major entry was a huge disappointment.
On that note, is there any way to even play KHX and its spinoffs anymore? I have no idea if there's a preserved version archivists host, or if they were worth playing to begin with. They had really cute art.

The cross-platform singularity: the convergence of PC and mobile gaming
I've been struggling to make a thread like this because of how to express such a niche topic that gets zero attention. But here goes:
Over the past few years, a certain game Genshit Impact blew up and changed the mobile market completely. A key factor to its success was not only that it was chinkshit BOTW but it was playable outside of muh wife's boyfriend's Switch for "free." Suddenly, the field went from disposable side games played by turd worlders to being taken seriously overnight. And with it came the copycats, and with that came the need to grow and grab more dollars free of Grapple and Gulag's clutches. Thus the PC clients and controller support rolled out.
The advent of Unity and Unreal to Eastern devs, combined with chinks and gooks growing up with always online games and expanding in soft power, while the Nipponese gravitate increasingly towards portability, has resulted in a glut of titles that are available on both PC and phones (sometimes web). As more and more of them come out, some of them, in the spirit of Ross Freeman, convert themselves into packaged games you can purchase on retail. Some mobile devs capitalize off their success on phones to develop real hardcore games.
Meanwhile, hardcore games have slowly adopted the same live service trappings of mobile titles, and handheld game ports are making more money than ever.
<battle passes
<microtransaction shops, lootboxes, and gachas
<deckbuilding
<wikis and metas
<"gameplay loops"
<limited time collabs and crossovers
All the talk about normalfag gamers suddenly discovering indie games is BS as Palworld and Helldivers 2 were both live service games that happened to have the aesthetic of hardcore games. This development is what flash games and handheld titles were leading up to.
My thesis is that games will eventually be designed for both mobile and PC from the ground up, due to the rise of the East in influence, and the future of gaming relies on the direction this development takes, for the better or worse. Ideally all games will start out free, replacing traditional demos, but there will be an option to buy the game outright or play it with microtransactions. Alternatively, hardcore games will be ported to ARM as we are starting to see over the years, with Crapple and Microshit making a huge push with ISA translation.
Pros
>devs essentially have more creative freedom
>low budget and barrier of entry, means a return to the PS2 era of development
>shift to developing for multiple resolutions which helps with preservation as upscaling and temporal aliasing become more popular; something I've seen that is interesting is that some mobile games are designed at a 1:1 ratio so they can adapt to any screen
>smaller gaymen devices are kewl
>grawfix will stop being wanked over and focus will be on battery life and thermals instead
>hot anime babes will eventually cleanse and purify the Jewish rot of the West
Cons
<the live service approach is akin to commercial serial storytelling and most of it fucking sucks, especially with the hero collectors
<mobile gamers are fucking stupid and the mobile market is predatory; there's increasing tribalism over fucking gachas and online shooters like they're football teams
<mobile games tend to have high marketing budgets to try to expand player bases which is not much better than the current triple gAAAy norm
<many mobile games are just rehashes of other concepts, not that that changes much either
<mobile games developed improperly cause heat issues with devices that only have passive cooling
<treadmill work, dailies and external reward campaigns
<devs are also stupid as shit, Alchemy Stars is a 2D gacha that is as big as some AAA games in file size, I started this thread because of how some successful mobile games run like shit and are unoptimized on phones
<mobile gamers understand nothing about technicals
<trannylators

The Last of Us Season 2: Electric Trannygaloo: The Movie: The Thread
The review embargo just lifted for this wonderful series which I know is near and dear to the hearts of many a /v/irgin, so I am making this thread so we can discuss how the TV adaptation of our favorite video game is going!
To start off, here are a few noteworthy articles
>'The Last of Us' Season 2 Review: Somehow, the Best Video Game Adaptation Ever Only Got Better
https://archive.ph/udHG4#selection-1005.0-1005.94
<While the first game is a fairly straightforward narrative that made perfect sense for an adaptation, the second game, The Last of Us: Part II, is a story that felt like it couldn’t exist with the same power in another medium. There are years of flashbacks, multiple changing viewpoints, and some of the most tragic and difficult losses you’ve ever had to reckon with in a video game. It should be a logistical nightmare for any TV series, and yet, with Season 2, Mazin and Druckmann prove once again why HBO's The Last of Us is the strongest video game adaptation ever. At times, the show might deviate from the path, but it all works, even heightening and improving a phenomenal season of television that does justice to arguably the best story in video game history.
>Pedro Pascal Wasn’t Allowed To Play ‘The Last of Us’ Video Game
https://archive.ph/irHu5#selection-1005.0-1005.63
<During a video interview prior to the release of The Last of Us, Pascal confessed that while showrunner Craig Mazin asked for his leading actors not to play the game, he picked up the controller anyway. "My nephews were watching me play and eventually got tired of my inability to complete the level, so they took my controller from me," Pascal told IGN during the video interview. "But then we started shooting the show and living in the world ourselves!"
Go ahead and post about this

8th Generation in Review
Now that gen 8 is basically over, let's have a look back on it.
What defined this console generation for you? This isn't just a gay conversation starter, I seriously can't think of any traits that were unique to gen 8. Gen 7, for me, is defined by colorless hallway shooters, padded open worlds, "cinematic experiences," and shameless weeb bait. Gen 8 seemed just like more of the same, but with a higher percentage of the last two types of games.
Also, what 8th gen games stood out the most to you, either for good or bad reasons? My favorites were Fire Emblem Three Houses, Ace Combat 7, and Unicorn Overlord.

Ports that are completely different games
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.

Vidya based dreams
Have you ever had any dreams based on vidya, anon? Existing games or otherwise. I'll start with one I had a while ago:
>Some sort of custom map, the part I'm in is some sort of long, blue, hexagonal tube with the bottom cut out and leaving a black abyss serving as a killzone, two white platforms lining either side (one above and one below), with doorways giving access for red on one side, and blu on the other (though the distance can be explosive jumped, but not scout doublejumped)
>I am on BLU, playing soldier, on my side of the tube
>Two RED soldiers are on the opposite side
>rocket jumping around, hitting each other uselessly with their melees, exchanging voice lines, typical TF2 interactions
>I whip out the righteous bison and start taking potshots
>miss because it's the bison
>one of the soldiers turns right towards me after my first shot misses, effortlessly steps out of the way of subsequent shots because again, it's the bison
>actually intentionally steps back in front of my last two shots before I have to stop to reload, does the schadenfreude taunt, pain sounds interrupt the audio portion of it
>he whips out his own righteous bison
>we start blasting away at each other
>neither of us can hit the other
>other red soldier whips out his own bison and joins in
>he can't hit anything either
>the other players all start swapping to soldier and equipping the bison
>start flooding into their respective halves of the tube
>in a short time all 32 players on either team are spamming bison shots
>projectiles flying everywhere, with crits mixed in as well
>nobody can hit shit
I don't think I've ever had a weapon I was so bad with that I actually had a dream based on it.

Games Carried Completely by One Non-Gameplay Element
I was recently reminded of some games which, in my opinion, were carried entirely by the soundtrack. Immediately the ones which come to mind are things like whatever Tim Follin produced music for, like Pictionary on the NES, but also more contemporary titles like Skyrim and Mechanicus. Then this got me thinking about the other games out there which got completely carried by some other non-gameplay related element, like the story or the art style. I'm not talking a mix of one thing or another, but something going so far and beyond the rest of the characteristics of the game that it is recognized/remembered as the sole thing the game had going for it. I suppose another example would be Little Witch Nobeta which has pretty forgettable combat and even worse aspects besides, but it remembered because it has one cute girl in it whom the devs are not afraid at all to lewd in their official merchandise and marketing.
Post some other examples which spring to mind, be it for soundtrack, artstyle, or something else - as long as it doesn't pertain to the gameplay.
