Has anyone here played space station 13 or 14?

Its this job simulator where you and about 50 other people try to keep a space station running while it is attacked by various antagonists from traitors, to changlings (which is basically the thing meets parasyte), to of course, revolutionaries which the attached image is describing.

the revolutionaries aren't actually communists, though. It is implied to be a color revolution set up by an enemy coorperation. the collapse of a 'third soviet union' is mentioned in passing in the backstory.

it's not clear how one builds this for Linux or if it's even possible. I guess one can use mono somehow? the documentation only suggests being used by VScode

Tetris effect

The Old World

Severed Steel is a pretty fun and easy movement shooter I played recently, seems great for drug gaming

In no particular order:

BeamNG.drive - Driving sim with very realistic crash physics and lots of mods. Plenty of way to goof off.

Baldur's Gate 3 - But it can be very complex and overwhelming immediately if you're not familiar with D&D 5E's rule set.

Cruelty Squad - First person shooter with a unique art style

Dave the Diver - Kind of like Motherload meets Diner Dash. Wasn't for me, but many people seem to like it

Dredge - Story-heavy fishing game

Subnautica - Open-world survival, but in the ocean

Embr - Co-op or solo firefighting game
Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

PowerWash Simulator - Pretty self-explanatory. Has surprisingly deep lore buried in the mission descriptions. Very satisfying to play.

Operation Deep Sneed edition

Made a new thread since the other one is full. You know the drill folks, gather here to discuss and/or complain about Hearts of Iron 4 and all the alt history mods that make the game relevant. From green natpops to sicko mode Savinkov we've got a lot of exciting stuff coming in the next Kaiserreich update, one which will make the LKMT look like pre-rework Germany by comparison. But dont worry TNOomers, you're getting some new content too! After a year and a half and three focus trees that only last for four years, we finally have something new and that's…

…three years of fucking Antarctica

i tried as a beginner on hoi4 modding to maybe develop a skeleton tree for amazonas PCdoB brazil, but i feel soo overwhelmed and annoyed by modding on this game and slightly angry i couldnt see a focus tree, tried also CWtools

if you have vscode then hoi4 mod utilities could help with that, has a focus tree visualizer built in

gonna try that, thanks
i have yet to design a focus tree skeleton for brazillian communists in TNO then a timed decision minigame for adhemar, democratic lacerda and the hardliner military paths

ive done the focus tree, now i gotta make the events, decisions and other stuff to make it playable/triggerable and achievable, which i need tips, tried to pick TFR's alikhanov opposition minigame but it is too hard, plus writing the decisions feel more important than events

Roman Polanski came to mind. Watching his movies you'd think he's a person with a lot of compassion and empathy for victims of sexual exploitation of any sort. Knowing what he did in life legit feels like a plot twist.

i hate every company but i love some games

Like legitimately enjoy? or enjoy despite it's flaws?

does wanting to enjoy but ultimately having such a bad time due to how incompetent the company behind it is, counts?

if no;
>every single VALVE game




 

I feel like we need to discuss why MMOs as a genre were never good, but how they were also fucking amazing. This is all due to when MMOs became a thing.
Most if not all MMOs people actually care about were from the early 2000s. They were all pushing the boundaries of capitalism over video games with either a subscription or whatever the hell is wrong with the korean industry, but, and I must stress this, but…they came out during the ONLY MOMENT they would've been successful.
They were social spaces, social WORLDS in fact, they were by definition larping sims. In an era where that was still a new thing. From 2003-2012, MMOs had THIS as their main wow factor. This is also their only staying power in media ABOUT video games, their sense of community and ability to break barriers…of course, all those external pieces of media also made it about how MMO players were losers, but nontheless, that was why they became a genre.
After social media became a permanent staple of human life, MMOs had practically no point anymore. Most of them were already garbage gameplay wise. This is why we all want classic wow, or classic maple, or the return of wonderking (which, by the way, looks like actual garbage, to my dismay).
We didn't "grow out" of MMOs, that is what idiots with no argument say to shut you up, the WORLD outgrew MMOs, and sadly, we have been conditioned to not be impressed or enamoured.
>what the fuck are you saying OP??
I'm saying what I mean, anon. Maybe I was groomed by this industry to endure capitalism, but DAMN IT, there was a time talking to someone as your personal chibi avatar was cool and FUN! Now it's a fucking bore, I cannot understand why anyone would play an MMO in 2025, almost all of them are bad wow clones.

>bad wow clone
funny considering wow is probably the worst of the currently popular ones in terms of gameplay

>>44755
Honestly discord in particular did a lot to gut the social aspect and accelerate the breaking up of the community into cliques. Either way it's probably just my autism but Maplestory is the only one that ever grabbed me. I still play it. The upcoming winter update looks really promising.
Also, like war, capitalism is fun when it's a video game, i figured mmos were more like closely regulated market economies via a central body (the corp running it), not necessarily a free one. Or is there a difference?

Anyone ever play the goat, OG Tibia?

I just started playing (technically resumed as I had one low level character from years ago) Warhammer: Return of Reckoning, the fan resurrection of discontinued Age of Reckoning. Completely free, daily peak population at around 1000 players, very comfy feeling that brings me back to Burning Crusade era WoW, but with more PvP focus. I dont even bother with any optimal play, I just slowly do all quests I encounter for the sake of roleplay.
I think it is this pressure to in accordance with meta that is the biggest thief of joy for players, having everything documented, all figured out, destroys sense of exploration the old MMOs had, when you couldnt just find a youtuber who figured out the mathematically optimal way to play.

Anyone getting the summer eternal anthology?

I've seen some posts talking about how amazing the games are and I want to play them. I don't know if I should get the original 3 separate games or the legendary edition, any suggestions?

Just play andromedia genius. Its the last one they made and duringvthat short window of xbox one before video games are trash

>>45832
I mean other than outriders and once human of course. Then even i had to get a working version of once human to even exist

>>45825
Yeah, despite that disappointing ending, I do think they're worth a playthrough. Post ME3, the only game that ever got close to scratching that old Bioware itch for me was Baulders Gate 3.

I don't know if >>45832 is trolling or not, but definitely avoid Andromeda, it's only maybe worth a try if you already finished the original trilogy. While the combat is decently fun in Andromeda, everything else is below average.

>how amazing the games are
Mass Effect is a series where you play as a woke NATO cop who works as a PMC manager to maintain the homogenized-globalization interracial fascist project, focusing on the continuation of the eugenics Malthusian sterilization of an ethnic minority who refuses to integrate into the cosmic Jeffrey Epstein finance imperium

>The genophage is a significant plot element in the Mass Effect series, particularly affecting the Krogan species. It is a bioweapon designed to control the Krogan population due to their aggressive nature and overpopulation issues.

>Purpose and Impact
>Population Control: The genophage drastically reduces the birth rate of Krogan, making it difficult for them to reproduce.
>Political Tool: It serves as a means for the galactic government to manage the Krogan, reflecting themes of power and control.
>Neoliberal Themes
>Resource Management: The genophage exemplifies neoliberal ideologies by treating populations as resources to be managed rather than as individuals with rights.
>Militarism and Governance: The use of the genophage highlights the intersection of military power and biopolitics, where the state exerts control over life and death.

<The virus was meant to keep the Krogan population in check to prevent them from starting a war they'd likely win due to their superior numbers. It is a highly sensitive subject for all involved, but is it the right decision to cure it? There is a lot to factor into the choice of curing the genophage

I imagine Jeffrey Epstein's emails with Bill Gates or Elon Musk talked about this sci-fi genetic engineering neoliberalism about reducing the number of Africans or whatever

there's no good endings in dark souls because miyazaki was in his emo, misanthropic era in dark souls. humanity is an incomplete pile of curse that cant help but be burned to a crisp. the counterpart is the age of stars in elden ring, which is miyazaki in his happy optimist era, and that's like the dark ending if humanity wasn't a pile of misery. the only exception is usurpation of the fire which is humanity steals the fire for themselves, prometheus style.

>>43012
elden ring is not slop bro

I'm sure a protag that sacrificed Anri just because som lady gave him promises of great power is a VERY benevolent lord

>>45619
People overstate Berserk's influence on Miyazaki. Like, yeah there's some direct references like Artorias and the Logarius Wheel on Bloodborne but his biggest influences have always been Western fantasy books and obscure tabletop RPGs.

Like actually violent, i want ludicrous gibs and screams.
even if it's a bit cartoony like Team Fortress 2
i just really need to see my enemies blown to chunks.

doesn't has to be a shooter either tho i really like shooters
bonus points if it has mods to get new weapons
5 posts omitted.

What are some games where you can be violent in ways that aren't outright lethal? Sure it's cool looking when an NPC explodes in a shower of gore, but give me some games where if a character gets shot in the leg they start limping or something. Give me something that makes the violence feel more grounded and impactful instead of just making the NPCs meat piñatas.

>>45902

>Kenshi

<you can cripple/destroy and lose limbs entirely to a point where you'd need prosthetics
>Escape From Tarkov
<you can cripple enemies and they'll limp, groan and pant until they die
>Fallout: New Vegas
<see https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/84262

>>45902
dwarf fortress goes pretty in depth with injuries and limb injuries/outright limb loss

>>45916
Yeah but it's a nerd game.

>>45920
What video game taking the time to simulate that isn't? Also both Fear and Hunger games have limb loss and other injuries as mechanics you have to actually consider when getting into fights or just exploring around. There's also bushido blade for an example of a game that isn't turn based. Don't know how I forgot them.

With the amount of shill threads about Stellar Blade I kept seeing on 4chan /v/ saying it was a "decent action game" I ended up buying it along with some other games for my brother's birthday last year (at great expense as it's a modern video game and all). He never touched it so I finally gave the demo a go myself to see if it was worth the hype.

It was a Sekiro-like. and not even that great a one. It almost seems like it was hyped to shit because it had attractive girls in skintight suits and almost only because of that. I had more fun with Devil's Third of all games.

So what specifically is your issue with her essay?

>>45754
This picture is inherently flawed because the only people who watch Gura and her current persona Saba are literal pedophiles who prefer the one on the right. Saba even got in trouble because she pandered to them with an exposed stomach emote and had to remove it after people rightfully pushed back.

unironically enjoyed burst's story and the infinite combos you can do, to the point i stopped caring about the coombait entirely. the last entries of the franchise leaned way too hard into it for my taste. i don't even know if they have a story to speak of.

>>45759
>do americans go to college just to make this videoessay slop
Unironically yes, and this bullshit predates YouTube video essays by decades. If anything, YouTube just popularized the popular American academoid pastime of overthinking slop entertainment.

There are people to this day who think the movie Alien is about rape and feminism. They even got the creators to "confirm" it (decades later.)
