Does hoi4 run well on Mac?
I have an old-ish Macbook and I was wondering if it would run ok on it and if so, does it also work well with moding? I want the play tfr

Anonymous 08-05-26 22:14:45 No.46797

how old? if you have an intel mac you probably can just nuke macos and get windows 11 or some linux distro and run hoi4 just fine

Like 2015, also it kind of belongs to my mother, it only works if it’s constantly plugged in so she just got a new one. I don’t know how important it is to her, like if she has important stuff on it, so I don’t think I should change its operating system

HAI! ITS ME ERVA!
Im prob gonna get my post removed and banned again for this, but I have no friends and I must yap!
I like l4d like alot, be wary tho; I play with stupid amounts of mods, so much in fact that Im trimming them down as of late, I intend on getting rid of half of them.
Most of the mods, like pretty much all of them are server side, so you dont need to do anything.
Other games are allowed too.
AND FRIENDS ARE AWESOME!
I also really want to play halo/terraria with someone!

Games the chuds tricked you into buying Anonymous 24-01-26 22:25:30 No.45643[Reply]

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.

It's a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation and the devs skirted it perfectly just enough to be polarising as the game is. just because you're beautiful/sexy doesn't mean you necessarily have to 'be' anything personality wise, people are mad because they have their preconceived notions and project it onto the game and weaponise it in the culture war while the devs laugh to the bank.

>It's a damned if you do, damned if you don't
it's really not. i just think it's hacky characterization and reminds me of marvel movies (which also have AAA-tier bodies but everyone is inhumanly asexual). the game was released and then went away without pain or glory, really, and the drama around it was vastly overstated by a 60 year old pedophile who spends too much time online. they could have done either thing.

Why would you have to care about the character "acting" attractive? This depends on the personality of the character and the culture the game is produced in.

Helps with immersion, if she dress like a slut and is one.
Then the problem becomes obviously that you can't have both pure virgin waifu uwu and extremely sexual woman in the same archetype without it being ridiculous, which I think is a bigger problem than having it be "too empowering" for the woman, because both of those are the market for gooner/waifu game and you want to hit them both at the same time

Crafting Mechanics in games Anonymous 28-02-26 03:42:26 No.46183[Reply]

Post examples of different systems for crafting and discussions of crafting mechanics. Most games just do the simple "collect enough materials and click on the thing you want to make," even the ones that are ripping off minecraft, which actually was pretty novel with its 3x3 grid.

See, this is what I'm talking about. Crafting is the focus of this game and it actually has you doing things in the world to make the items instead making recipes in a menu. This game has you actually hit the weapon you're crafting on the anvil and it affects the stats!

Fallout New Vegas treats political ideology as the material base of modes of production, ideology as in the things you physically do and build, not just the highest superstructure of writing a name in a ballot box.

In Japan doing enthusiasm is seen as good customer service due to effort required, whereas in west forced enthusiasm is seen as bad. It's not gooder or worser it's just different. Both have an internal logic.

Can we take a moment to appreciate the voice acting in Soulsborne games? Like yeah most characters have like 10 lines max but they're all perfectly acted like if it was a Shakespeare play.

Judging by the fact that they are the only AVN Devs I support on Patreon, BlenderKnight's Hooked! and Naughty Road Productions' Light of my Life and The Velan Reach are probably my favs. Other AVNs maybe appeal more to my kinks but the quality that these two devs produce is unparalleled, in my opinion. Of course, I have my own hangups that prevent me from enjoying a great deal of AVNs, namely not liking most Daz 3D/HS models nor a great deal of 2D art, so your mileage may vary

Wait, Shift Up does 3D stuff too? I guess doing live2d stuff for Nikke is a stylistic thing.

Idk OP, what's the plot of Stellar Blade? I heard Stella Sora has a decent story to it. Gachas tend to be books with gameplay attached, so it's gotta have a good story for people to care.

It's cuz stellar blade doesn't have replayability since it's a singleplayer story soulslike which means people have to actually get gud but when they do, there isnt much else once you complete the game. Gacha is slop of the slop for the sloppiest of slops.
