Finally, some good fucking food (maybe) Anonymous 04-11-26 22:32:40 No.48565[Reply]

Recently, fantasy media has been doing diversity in the absolute dumbest and laziest way possible, which is to continue to do European-based medieval fantasy and just make all the characters (including the magical creatures) a completely random smattering of all ethnic appearances and calling it a day. No explanation for why a backwoods medieval farming village appears so cosmopolitan it makes New York City look like an ethnostate. And no recognition of non-European cultures either, it's just straight European fantasy and all cultures and people are treated as European with their appearance being purest tokenism.

But with the Elder Scrolls deciding to put the next game in Hammerfell, land of the Redguards, we have an opportunity to have a fantasy world based on non-European cultures with a largely black and brown native population since the Redguards are based on North African peoples. Its an opportunity to show that you can have a successful fantasy world based on non-European cultures with a mostly non-white population, and the right will no longer have the justified complaint that its shitty worldbuilding (and, despite culture war contrarianism, I think everyone knows that the aforementioned trend IS shitty worldbuilding) and they will be forced to fall back on naked racism, which will cause them recede back into their corners of society.

But all that depends on the game itself actually being good and with modern Bethesda that is a big question.

Only Oblivion really went for the full rainbow cast approach, but I expect that the game will be set around the wider Illiac bay rather than just Hammefell at least in part to dilute a Redguard majority/plurality with a bunch of Bretons and other races in a Wayrest/Daggerfall melting pot because a majority black NPC game would be a more difficult sell.

Alunyagrad 2.0: Minecraft server Anonymous 02-11-26 23:12:19 No.48548[Reply]

We have a new Minecraft server! Here's how to join.

Join the Matrix chat.
Get through the Antechamber.
Request access to the Minecraft room, in which case you'll be added and further instructions will be provided.

The server is cracked, running Drasl for account management. This means that despite that, custom skins (and capes) work. The world is backed up regularly, so don't bother trying to grief. We also have Simple Voice Chat on so you can chat with nearby players or have a group chat depending on what you're doing. Otherwise, we're sticking as close to vanilla as possible and keeping the modlist slim. If there's any QoL changes you'd like to suggest, feel free to do so here!

We have a community base for newbies to get set up and running. Be a good comrade and contribute where you take, though, so it can stay useful for others.

We also have it connected to town by rail, where most of the houses so far have been built. Feel free to choose a spot and build your own, or do it far away if you don't care. :)

I played it for the first time about 6 months ago. Got the "bad" ending and was then too lazy to go back and keep playing for the other endings. It felt like a weird cross between Half Life 1 and Fallout 3. It was very linear, but also kind of "open world." There's factions but it's super easy to permanently piss them off. Duty was on my ass every time I was in the Bar area and I had to save scum and keep killing them until there was a mountain of corpses outside the bar. I didn't like all the backtracking to do side quests, which for me is the main thing I usually do in games like this. I did like the realism of the firefights which was ahead of its time. Guns felt correctly inaccurate from a distance and taking out random unaligned stalkers in their little hideouts was riveting. The anomalies were sometimes interesting but usually really annoying. I found myself selling the artifacts instead of wearing them, because I preferred to have a lot of guns and health packs.

You probably might want to skip Clear Sky if you didn't totally fall in love with the first game, but Call of Pripyat improves upon SoC in almost every aspect, I swear. The basic idea of the game and mostly the engine is the same of course.

While I find your analysis of the game pretty much accurate, I don't even know why but I think STALKER is my favorite game series ever? I've spent 140 hours in SoC alone. I think it's the atmosphere. And mods make the games more open-world so you can waste away days playing

I'm playing it rn, the devs are are a bit chauvinistic about the war iirc which may have led to some russian chuds thinking they live in the soviet union seethe but the game is quite fine even if I would have hoped for something better. I don't think it's anti soviet, or all the franchise can be read as much… After all it echoes the IRL Chernobyl incident which was caused by scientists and engineers overconfidence, a poor safety culture, too much secretiveness and general mismanagement. Which are themes that are in all the games, 2 comprised, with all the experiments going awry, the military constantly failing to take control of the situation, a secretive group scheming in the background and so on.

Legacy of the Chinareich Edition

The other one filled up again so I might as well recreate it. For all those interested this is the big thread for all your Hearts of Iron 4 and modding related content, mostly modding because let's be real nobody plays vanilla anymore. Specifically alternate history. From Kaiserreich to The Fire Rises, mods from this shoddy game set in alternate timelines seem to really do numbers. And create serial killers.

So most recently the latest update from vanilla broke every mod's nation selection screen. You simply hate to see it

the stories in gta games are serviceable and are not meant to be taken seriously, and they signal this to critics by making them literal hodgepods of hollywood movie plots and references (carlito's way, boyz n the hood, heat, whatever), it would come across as rather derivative if taken seriously, but because the references are worn on the sleeve, the actual story is interpreted as secondary to the simulacra of doing crime in a big city

I think this is a challenge that has to be solved top-level, as a design philosophy thing. Look at the recent Zelda games and how they handle things interacting through a "chemistry" system as they call it. If you start from considering how all the different pieces interact instead of designing them separately as their own systems, it keeps everything more cohesive.

The dev team at the engineering firm I worked at designed an application for the engineers to use which had a bunch of smart keyboard shortcuts, and documents outlining how to use them, and nobody uses them, instead choosing to do everything with mouse. So this is true. Also I think a lot of people never use keyboard shorcuts because they never learned how to type in school, and so, for them, keyboard shortcuts are actually slower than using the mouse, because they have to search around the keyboard for keys they can't feel out from muscle memory… another thing that's very depressing is the generational gap in designing everything around PC vs. designing everything around smartphone and tablet.

Why don't Russia and China make games where you fight USA/NATO with cinematic campaigns?
I would love to play that.
Video games are the most efficient ways of delivering propaganda and you can tell just by how much controversy they generate and the youtube video essays rebuttals that come afterwards.
Only the west is taking advantage of this. Meanwhile China is trying to get on the west's good graces. Even Russia with its shitty philosophical Atomic Heart bullshit didn't cut it.

No. They must make Chinese COD where you do Black Ops shit like blow up Data Centers and Liberate an ICE facility, followed by a TNO The Fire Rises-style civil war missions. Trust me, American slop consumers would love that shit. I could write the campaign and in any decently run universe I would get an Oscar for it.

Anybody got any ideas how the anti-imperialist countries can make COD-like games?
Only based game developers out there are the ones that made Knights of Al-Aqsa.
