>Ask the question "Could the SPD stop the Nazi party?"
>Develop a game with nearly 80 branching paths in the timeline for the player to explore
>The Nazis still comes to power, Germany creates Mecha-Hitler at the end of the war, and the United States gets nuked no matter what decision you take

Looks cool I'm gonna try it out.

>Try to "save german democracy" larp game
<Appoints paul levi instead, allies with the KPD, form a united front agaisnt nazis, demolish hindeburg and schleischer, and form the SED instead.



 

Post in this thread every time you play a new game and rate it, I'll start, currently playing Dread Dawn, pretty jank and honestly not that good but I'm desperate for more zombie games to wait until PZ 42 comes out. 6/10.

>I think this point would be missed if they made active politics the goal of the game
Nah, the game endorses plenty of politics. Only in the mind of its liberal writers is it not political. There is literally a dialogue between jill and her boss somewhere about the lax laws in night city enabling extensive human experimentation and it's said this led to better healthcare being than anywhere else despite private ownership; pure lolbert wank!

>>47799
Anon, where does "active politics being the goal of the game" mean that there is "no politics"?

I don't think it's contradictory at all regarding your point about lax laws. You *could* have better healthcare in terms of technological advancement by way of human experimentation + private healthcare, but just as much you'd live in $40 ramen corrupt society with ridiculous rent. There is no reason to believe this is an endorsement of said society as much as it's world building.

I finished Demon's Souls and now I'm playing Bloodborne on shadPS4 since you can do that now, it plays really good, but I dunno, even though this game is more demons souls than the other souls games, I think from soft never quite managed to do whatever they managed to do in DeS. My final game to complete my FromSoft cycle is probably going to be Shadow Tower Abyss, since it seems like it shares lots of aesthetic DNA with DeS

how 2 kill a fly

self-dubbed(by the author) as cyberpuke aesthetic.

short-ish game. approximately 1.5 hours. a little gimmicky but overall pretty fun with quirky characters. if you get tired of the main gimmick(which you might, but its still worth experimenting with), there's an assisted mode that highlights relevant text. the main gimmick is you're a flesh automaton slave who can only repeat what has been said to you. So if a guy says FILL SUCKZ to you, then you can say FILL SUCKZ to the next guy. Wish you could say more shit to people as otherwise its a straight forward puzzle game using context clues to figure out what to say to people. 6/10 game but was fun

every server i have to share with american players they're either cheating, trolling, immediately detaching themselves off the game whenever someone tries to take it serious, literally being too high off their fucking brains to even know where they are, or just downright begging for attention with racist rants or in the case of queers, just turning the whole server into ERP

and the most "hardcore oldfag" gamers spend more time complaining about videogames than playing them

so what is even going on with americans and videogames?

>>47796
In the context of the mp games I personally play, people of Russian nationality tend out to troll or cheat more.

>so what is even going on with americans and videogames?

Yuo are delusional if you think no one in millions of american video game players derive any joy from playing it.

From "Mud, Mud, Glorious Mud…", first printed in Micro Adventurer, Sept 1984

https://mud.co.uk/richard/masep84.htm

>ONE OF the features of MUD is that if you type LOG at it, it copies all output to a file so you can peruse it later at your leisure. Hours of endless amusement can be had by looking at other people's LOG files which they have left lying around.


>Consider the plight of two of our very first externals, who played from the USA back in 1980. One of them had been in before, but his friend hadn't, and fortunatdy for us thought you had to LOG into the game to play. This meant all his activities were recorded for posterity, unbeknown to him.


>Also in the game was Niatram, one of the system operators (who can't spell his name backwards). He decided to loom up on this second character, follow him around a bit, then kill him. This he repeated several times, gaining plenty of points in the process. Finally, the newcomer was at his wits' end.


>"Who's this Niatram character?" he asked his friend. "He keeps following me around and killing me!". "Yes, he's done that to me before", came the reply, "I think he may be dungeon generated!" At this point Niatram appeared, and out of despair his victim quit, rather than be killed yet again by this "artificial person".


Truly, a milestone of gamer history. Also

>And, of course, you WILL be able to play on your micro, although not the same way as you do at present. In the current arrangement, you buy (a likely story!) your cassette and run the software on your own machine; when MUD goes commercial you won't be able to get a copy anywhere in the shops. What you will be able to get is some sort of package explaining to you all you ever wanted to know about the game, and access details on how to contact the host computer over some network. You follow these instructions and there you are, in a game with 100 other people, who are also sitting at home playing on the mainframe via their own micros. The only cost is that for the network (telephone, cable or whatever) and around a pound an hour peak times for the game itself.

Let me know if you have other interesting links. I have this faggy kind of dream of finding and binging a wiki that just collects "history from below" stuff like this about particular games/genres/scenes. The site in the OP has some stuff like that but not as much as I'd like


>>47767
I think your idea for a site sounds really interesting, because as the number of entries grows, you would also have to sort them chronologically and establish different diverging and recombining strains of internet culture. Like something that quotes sources on arpanet-era university networks, usenet, 90s dialup, cracking culture, the pre-FANG internet and our favorite basket-weaving forums in a grand multi-narrative epic of the internet as we know it. Or you know it could be just another wikipedia clone.

What happened to call of duty, it kinda became opposite of what it used to be. The games feel completely bloated now and they completely lost that original, classic identity that made the older titles so good.

>>47636
Call of Duty was always absolute garbage. I’m grateful that the 7th-generation era of generic military shooters remains dead—today and forever. I’d take the current era of Rollslop and gachaslop over going back to that dark age. Nostalgia is fascist.

Im telling you

Nowadays modern cod is meant for children if you pay close attention to it you can see it

>>47792
>if you pay close attention



 

I hate all of it. The fans, the retarded looking oversized armor. Most of all I hate that it’s heavily focused on the American military. You never get to play as the Russian orcs or anything. No you always play as the US marines. Because it’s meant to be pro us military propaganda. Just like Starship Troopers hides behind fake bullshit “anti war” veil that doesn’t mean anything because it’s still a pro us military movie. Do you get to play as the bugs in the Starship Troopers game? Nope. Yeah it’s all chinlet us military propaganda. Same with that gay Helldivers game.

Thoughts on Arknights?
Kinda surprised there's not already a thread about this, there's so much politics crammed into this game's story I'd imagine people here would have interesting takes on.

A phenomenon I have witnessed

I don’t even have to explain how it weird for people like shartyfags to like a violently beautiful lady😍🥰ed out game like deltarune

Is this something that shartyfags just like to do? I’ve also seen it strangely with TADC as well, not that I care even a little for that shit

How ever so peculiar

>a violently beautiful lady😍🥰ed out game like deltarune
Was it really? I know how the fanbase is but if you play the game casually I don't remember it being that in your face. There was the gay guards. They wouldn't care about the fish/dino lesbian ship. The mew mew thing came later and was a secret. Maybe I forgot it's been awhile.

Anyway this reminds me of when people wondered how so many MLP fans could be right-wing ancaps/fascists when the show supposedly goes against that. It's funny because when it 1st came out some conservative media called it feminist propaganda, then some years later right-wing fans said it was based because it had monarchy and ethnostates. I also remember some lefty claiming it was conservative catnip because of the rural, semi-pre industrial setting. Lefties can ONLY love cities, industry, and pollution, okay?

>>47750
Oops nevermind for some reason my dumb brain read deltarune as undertale. Even then I don't see why they'd care about the susie/noelle thing either. I haven't played the latest chapter yet tho.

People on this site are so obsessed with looking clever that they'll twist themselves into pretzels trying to frame "why do queerphobes like a game stuffed with unambiguously queer characters" as a ridiculous question lmao.

>>47702
tbqh based on Mother 3 he seems like a vibes-based anticapitalist who wants to RETVRN to an imagined past where everything was simple, what Marx/Engels called "reactionary socialistm", looking backwards, not forwards

>>47752
A lot of anti-gay people don't tend to care about lesbian stuff tho unless they think the chars are ugly.
