I was kind of intending this thread to be a storehouse of replies for

<hurrr but who would work without profit motive???? you ever thought about that commie?


where fans have for one reason or another put in a great deal of time and effort to maintain or recreate digital experiences.

For example, I stumbled on some videos for a fan recreation of TIE fighter which, from the clips of it, looks really neat. It seems like video related is a mod based off of another mod for the million year old X-wing Alliance engine. I need to look further into it and see if it's built off of the original game, or its own standalone deal meant to mimic it.

Then there's also Tamriel Reborn that seems like it isn't just a remake of the original, but actually expands on the original Morrowind, I guess to add back in all of the content that had to be cut. Apparently they've been going at it since 2001.

Then there's DOOM, which has just had an insane amount of work done on it and with it since it was released. It's actually pretty amazing to see what people are capable of doing with it after so long.

I don’t know the relation of this mod with a similar project, but I tried Mantella with kobold and xvasynth and it works with both text and mic.

Just imagine the millions of dev hours that could have been used to create cool and fun single player games that instead went into yet another fucking moba/battle royale/open world survival/mmorpg

>>35933
(I know everyone is entitled to like the kind of things that they like but many/most of these games are nothing but snowclones with no original ideas whatsoever that do nothing but try to turn their players into addicts)

The book-accurate bugs were communists wielding weapons as strong as the federation. The average warrior bug fought using lasers and coordinated swarm tactics similar to the tyranids. The bugs had badass warships too and were fully capable of developing a cool space-bug logistics system across the galaxy.

The movie nerfed the lore so fucking hard. We could’ve been riding around with nuclear-armed orbiItaly-dropped power armour fighting planet destroying cybernetic communist space bugs man…

This shit hits like watching the second renaissance of the animatrix compared to the slop that was the movies. You only realize how much was lost when you even get a taste of how much better things could’ve been.

No, I was talking about how shit starship troopers the movie and the video game starship troopers extermination are in comparison to the book.

The original book series straight up defined nearly every sci fi trope. Power armour, space marines, drop pods, laser weapons, alien empires, humanity as a space faring empire, handheld nuclear weapons, and so much more. It had its own vibe created solely by McCarthyism that lacked subtlety and felt fucking cool. The bugs are both a communist and legitimate threat. Something I haven’t seen in ages in other anti-socialist anti-communist propaganda. Coincidentally, the bugs are fucking cool. They have lasers man, lasers.

>I was talking about how shit starship troopers the movie and the video game starship troopers extermination are in comparison to the book.
Then why is this in /games/ and not /hobby/?

>>38531
Extermination is the game, and it sucks dick compared to what it should have been.

>>38528
Why do you find specifically the anti-communist part of it cool? Yeah the nuclear power armour is cool, that doesn't mean the fascist part is at all.

>>38541
You know how the enclave is so stereotypically American that they become genuinely funny strawmen archetypes of what McCarthyists were like? Yeah that’s what I think the Terran federation is like.

Zealous, fanatical, and completely incompetent.

I don’t know how, but most video game developers tend to program NPCs the same way in shooters. NPCs all have a tendency to move around in random patterns when shooting a gun and they seldom seek cover.

In real life, people move far less often and far more predictably in gun fights. Most people tend to stay generally still when shooting and only change positions when an opponent has lost sight of them or if they’re fleeing suppressive and or open fire. Game developers have much more to gain by programming NPCs to behave realistically. After all, shouldn’t programming such predictable behaviour be piss easy?

One last thing, make sure the fighting happens at a distance. Keeping enemies spread out ensures that the player is constantly having to decide who to shoot at and is having to constantly adjust their aim. This effect can prevent the fighting from feeling like a game of whack-a-mole.

>>38593
I'm saying if you want to experience realism try ARMA you keep talking about like RPG shooters and shit.

>>38594
In ARMA the shooting is based off real life engagement distances so you are usually so far away you can't really hear the gunshots. Just a lot of crack crack crack of supersonics blasting past your head. But 99% of gamers don't want a realistic gunfight experience.

>>38595
Aight

>>38593
>Adding all those interventions to the gunplay design should encourage movement and thinking when aiming and shooting to break up the monotony.
The problem isn't the lack of realism but rather that most AAA slop is in this bleak grey area between boomer shooters and tactical shooters. People realized this and so we had boomer shooters' surge in popularity. It's all CoD's fault, it made everything too casual, both boomer shooters and milsims both encourage movement and thinking but arcadey military shooters rely on the spectacle alone. And you can do nothing about it, that's just trends.

Realistic gunplay would have the player rushing between cover repeatedly under fire while trying to cooperate with your squad who are doing the same thing, meanwhile the enemy sits in positions playing whackamole. Remember when designing levels that it takes less than an hour to dig a fighting hole, less than two days to dig a trench shallow system.

Genesis was the best 16-bit console. Shame the American Genesis games were garbage, SEGA of Japan should've provided better tools for Western developers than what they got. Japanese Genesis games are freaking amazing though.

I cannot imagine playing vanilla versions of these games, like, the games are meh. PC and Xbox Series X supremacy.

Scratch that, Series X can't into modded SA2 because it can't run x32 apps.

Any shooters that ONLY feature guns and artillery? I don’t mean in the sense that either the player or the enemy has access to guns. I mean that only ranged warfare involving guns and artillery is present throughout the entire play through. I hate melee combat and fighting opponents that are forced into coming near me to land a kill.

I never got a melee kill in insurgency, its not that good, but I did get a kill by running into a door and hitting a guy behind it

Shit like this is why I made this thread btw

Squad 44 is a gun only fps. There's vehicles and stuff too but you need a full crew to man them effectively. Its WWII themed. Squad is the modern war version



 

I've been so bored recently and I need some games to play, any super chill games?
I don't like shooters, horror or games that require too much brain usage. good example is House flipper and A little to the left
PC and switch games, still figuring out how to emulate switch games though

thanks for anyone who helps out

You're welcome. Oh, you can also play Knuckles' and Big's stages and some minigames like tamagochi, pinball, whack-a-mole and bumper car racing in modded Sonic Adventure DX (use SADX Mod Installer). Get yourself a 100% savefile on GameFAQs so you won't have to unlock anything through playing action stages (the horror). And change the voice language to Japanese (this is important).

Satisfactory is very comfy
You build factories and manage resources and items, upgrading and unlocking new machines and stuff.
Right now its the christmas event so you can build trees and decorations right now.
This is my main factory, I have a tree that dispenses gifts hooked up to a few smelting machines.

The OP asked for something that doesn't require too much brain power.

>>38571
I play this game while I am extremely high, you don't have to plan things out that much.

>>38573
Even when not high my designs end up being a cluttered mess, yours looks nice though

Have you played it? It seems to be really popular. To me, it looks kind of generic and cluttered, and I think I'm tired of the superhero genre and all of their constant quips and (attempted) witty one-liners. That being said, I'm going to install it and try it out for myself. What are your thoughts on it?

These games are just awful. They are in the same category as games like Fortnite or Overwatch in their cancerous influences on the gaming industry. “Soulslike” games are soulless garbage. They are not “hardcore” either. Every single normalfag streamer plays these games. It’s like the same popularity as Call of Duty. You see the cancerous influence of Souls in new Star Wars and Zelda games where your character moves like a slow fatass and you have to deal with this retarded stamina meter. These games fucking suck. We already had difficult sword fighting games like Ninja Gaiden and Shinobi but these faggots act like Souls is some innovative masterpiece when it’s a steaming pile of garbage. What about the artsyle of these games? It’s boring as hell. This loner knight shit is really getting old now. All these games look exactly the same. I’m so sick of this shit.

Rising storm 1 let you play as the IJA vs Marines
Rising Storm 2 let you play as NLF and PAVN vs the US and South Vietnam

>>38462 (me)
But at least the missions are fixed in the SA1-style mission mod so Sonic and friends don't just tolerate your bullshit or demand you to check every corner, the amount of enemies/allies you kill simply increases/decreases your time limit.
