>>1052279 So it's specifically the apngs that bother you? Got it. I'll post those even more then.
>>1052279 >>1052176 Schizo on the loose
>>1052272 Who is the "Platinum Sponsor"? I don't recognize that reference.
>>1052272 I want to impregnate Phoebe several times over

>>1052377 p sure its the ol' yahtzee standard; no idea what the fuck a platnum sponsor is though
>>1052377 Ask and discuss in the Drawthread where the drawer will see it. >>1052296
>>1052380 Looks like it, thanks.
Kohlchan is a gay imageboard full of 3DPD gooners
>>1052377 see >>>/vb/6954 for context the joke i tried to make was that the pc master racist is not-so-covertly funding 8chan and the dei activities
The guy made a speech at game awards and the usual suspects are frothing on twitter
>>1052206 tanks anon
>>1052388 Of course they are pissed. He pointed out reality. You can't do that.
>>1052388 Who is he? If he's at Larian Studios wouldn't the usual suspects on twitter love him for Baldur's Gay?
>>1052385 to ruin the joke further, organizations often have sponsor "tiers" for those who fund them. example: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/about/members . you can see this with youtuber or kickstarter patrons too. It's just having a large share of the stakeholder pie
Anybody else get suspicious whenever a huge number of people say a game is really, really good? >DUDE YOU GOTTA PLAY BALATRO >BROOOO TRY VAMPIRE SURVIVORS >ELDEN RING IS THE BEST GAME I'VE EVER PLAYED IN MY LIFE It brings me back to the overwhelming hype around Bioshock Infinite when it released, and that game fucking sucks. The same phenomenon happened with Far Cry 3 to a much lesser extent. It reminds me of the Robert Graves quote. "A remarkable thing about Shakespeare is that he is really very good in spite of all the people who say he is very good." In my experience, when a lot of people like a work of art, it's probably good; when a torrent of people obnoxiously fellate a work of art without pause, it's probably very flawed.
>>1052707 >It reminds me of the Robert Graves quote. "A remarkable thing about Shakespeare is that he is really very good in spite of all the people who say he is very good." In my experience, when a lot of people like a work of art, it's probably good; when a torrent of people obnoxiously fellate a work of art without pause, it's probably very flawed. That's the attitude that I've always had subconsciously, but I could never quite explain it. I tended to dismiss it as a form of Contrarianism.
>>1052707 There's also some games like Doom that i can't stand playing for more than five minutes but some people marathon. Personal opinions exists, in addition to bots and plants. I assume i will like absolutely nothing until i see some gameplay and maybe try it myself, except in the case of Elden Ring i just assume it's Demon's Souls 5.
>>1052707 I do the same for overly hyped movies and tv as well. If people still like it a year or two later then I may check it out. >Vampire Survivors I finally got around to trying Vampire Survivors and I was falling asleep while playing it. A crappy porn knockoff version of it I played was more enjoyable.
>>1052707 If the huge number of people's too huge for the game's sales. I also get suspicious whenever a huge number of people say a game that's really good is bad.

I know this has been discussed to death, but it's bizarre to me how hard Xbox gamers nostalgiafag. These people only ever circlejerk about the 360 as if the rest of the industry hasn't moved the fuck on, always with green avatars and usernames like XECUTER or TheXenith, basing their entire personalties on a brand that hasn't been genuinely relevant in over ten years. COD, Gears and Halo, forever. "Surviving on Summer 2007" indeed.
>>1053084 Nintendrones on steroids.
>>1053084 >how hard Xbox gamers nostalgiafag Honestly look at what their offerings are now/have been. Even if it was shit back then, it was still miles better than what they have had in recent years. I'm not shocked that they desperately wish for the old days now.
>>1053104 Maybe they could just get a PC like everyone else and stop clinging to a platform that even Microsoft has said is dead.
>nostalgia Expressing yourself unironically with some 1960's Frankfurt school psycho-babble like "nostalgia", simply means you're captured by the "nostalgia" of hearing these BS arguments when you were the dumbshit kid and believed them. Perfectly in line with your favored "art" form circling the drain, and being nothing but a latest hit of dopamine that you're already getting bored of as it hits. That's why you can say a game doesn't "hold up" if it only appeals to people who BACK THEN approached the WITHOUT YOUR bias. The incidentally would have been young because back then you didn't rotmax through college until you're 24 and finally pick up the attention span to finish even a single game and not a let's play either. Shakespeare fans seething because they're nostalgic for being literate. Of course that's only the fake fans, who only read the written adaptation later on and not the stageplay.

>>1053113 Consolefags are retarded, what can you do. >>1053171 >Do you mod your games? Quite a few games I wouldn't play without mods. Some that need the mods to even be playable these days. That said, I can't stand setting them up anymore. I've gotten tired of setting up the perfect mod list and then slowly but surely getting the correct load order/compatibility setup to play without issues. The end result is usually worth it, but the process is tiring and it puts me off playing some games now. Also on this topic, I want to take this moment to vent that steam workshop bothers me. Buying a game on GoG or something and then realizing 90% of the modding community only uploads on Steam Workshop is a frustrating experience. Steam doesn't even have version control or anything like that for mods either unless you physically move/alter the files manually. Also still has issues where updates to mods can just fail yet say they are up to date and make figuring out issues even more annoying when you don't realize right away that steam oops'd a mod or two with their bs.
>>1052707 My main issues with Elden Ring were that the open world was too big and it didn't feel like I was progressing naturally like it was the case with the Dark Souls trilogy. I could give it another chance when it's likely to be ported on the Switch 2 (which would give me an easier time to play in short bursts too) although I'd rather have DaS2 or DaS3 on the platform there.
>>1053359 >it didn't feel like I was progressing naturally Same, I like to roam around and explore as much as I can before proceeding to the next area but I kept stumbling into much higher level areas without meaning to and getting my shit pushed in. I am very certain I fought Rahdan severely underleveled without meaning to, and this was before he got patched to be easier. I saw you Patches, you pussy fuck, you kept porting out the second the fight started, every time. I made it to the big city before dropping it back in June.

>>1053171 I make mods tbh
>>1053365 Which mods?
(24.56 KB 303x335 dread (2).jpg)

>>1053372 I made one for Luanti before where there is 2 new guns, I want to add more guns but I need to figure out the stupid issue where the gun direction is angled wrong like it points downwards instead of the front like how every other game does, then I added a means to have infinite resource through a crystal salinizer then a crafting table which uses traditional crafting method instead of minecraft crafting system and stone transformer table. I did also made a weapon mod for GZDoom where you can play as Renamon with like around over 20 weapons to choose from. I haven't made any progress recently because of my depression.
>>1053375 This is what happens when you make mods in Loo Auntie.
>>1053375 >I haven't made any progress recently because of my depression. Damn, well I hope your situation gets better.
>>1053376 but Luanti respects my freedom and it uses babby Lua language instead of Java >>1053377 (checked) Thanks man.
