I seriously cannot understand how monster hunter games are still the only games with a coherent ecology for their over worlds. From a developer standpoint, they shouldn’t be hard to implement—at least on a highly superficial level. Just separate neutral mobs from hostile mobs based off a zone so players have a choose between venturing off into places with dangerous territory vs venturing to hunting grounds. Ffs, we already have level bands and levelled areas, how hard is something like this to implement? I’m not even going deep on this like with realistic day/night cycles or mob migration. This is purely the superficial stuff.

So-called gygaxian worldbuilding was actually the norm in rpgs before the advent the of the jrpg corridor.

I hate one page dungeons. All the prep work of keying your own dungeon, none of the fun creativity. Vidrel has such a point about some GMs wasting time prepping pointless factoids that only interest them. I know a guy like that with binders upon binders of notes for an RPG setting nobody will ever play in, and on the off chance they do he's going to bore them to death guaranteed.

>binders upon binders of notes for an RPG setting nobody will ever play
Now make such an arcane TTRPG system, that would be challenging or near impossible to run irl, the game logic of your indie CRPG. Problem solved!

monster hunter has it relatively easy because the big monsters have overwhelming protagonism and it kind of opaques the rest of the small creatures, they just program a few simple routines for the big guys, some interactions with the aptonoths or whatever and that's enough to sell you on the fantasy of a real breathing world.

not surprised at all that the studio raising funds for Azov is taking it out on small indie game devs

you can't even see the game store page at the moment anymore

give these people a hand and they'll take an arm

All they care about is owning the libs and being racist, both of which you can do in Disco Elysium.

How the vast the sea stretches from Mother Base. You can feel the absolute loneliness that Venom Snake is experiencing at this moment, after having to kill all of his comrades.

Lol


 

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.

Anyone still playing the game? For me swiftplay kinda saved it. Only fun mode to play right now, wish they would just return twisted treeline.
What champs and modes do you guys prefer?

Anyway, alk about the game

quit but i have always had two big problems with lol

1) soloque isn't league, the game is balanced around 5v5 franchised pro teams to get sponsorships from state farm and mastercard

2) engagement based matchmaking, but not how everyone else complains about it. idc that it "keeps your winrate 50/50" or whatever. its the LP clamping that is the problem and has been since like season 2. it keeps you below your actual elo for ~300 games which with queues and dodging is 300 hours a season. so even if you are gold plat whatever it will keep you in the division below your actual rating unless you play 8 hours a day and then it just resets after however many months. this is to increase playtime and drive skin sales. they even hired psychologists and openly admitted designing the game to fuck with you because frustration counts as engagement

and thats why solo/duo is more like fantasy football or madden than an actual esport. taking it seriously as a competitive game with intent to improve is a mistake, which would be/is fine if you know that but that isn't how its marketed

>>45024
True. I talked about this here >>42127

Adding voice chat and making ranked flex the main queue would solve the first problem. True ELO would solve the second one. Riot doesn't want to fix these though. It's broken on purpose.

its just total ass to end every season with a 55% winrate in division one and losing promos 6 or 7 times in a row due to rng shitters ruining games. if you extrapolate out for a few hundred more games(hours) you would eventually win your promos and be sitting nicely at 50% winrate but it would probably just be because the other team got the shitters that game and a result of banging your head against a wall until it breaks not actually improvement. feels real bad and its not like there is a lack of shitters at higher ranks

There's going to be a turn-based, text-based simulation of the world starting at the beginning of January 1981. To quote from the rules, "Players join as countries, parties, cabinet members, army officers, guerrillas, individuals, or most any other position they can think of."

Here's a link to the thread explaining how it works and what roles are currently taken: https://eregime.jcink.net/index.php?showtopic=21199

just why?

>>44926
Why not? It's easily the most convenient for discussion between players.


 

How are we feeling about it?

I am cautiously optimistic from the all the gameplay footage released. It genuinely looks like it will be a fun multifaceted game.

i will wait for playable ainu

filtered

>>44778
this. the UI is godawful and games buggy as hell but this is a good game. their best release since vicky2 and imho its not even close

>>45029

End of the day I think that's the basic take-away.

The game is fun to play and has a lot of potential but will need extensive patching for ui improvements, game balance & things just making sense.

I think it will probably take a few months for the later two and a year or so for the former.

t. OP

i feel like im just sitting afk for the first 100 years waiting for the real game to start

>>43713
Nope, you gotta wait for EUX for that.

>Steam Machine
>updated Index now called Steam Frame

So they're making a console but they are calling the machine and frame "PC" because they run steam OS, and calling it an "open ecosystem."

Is it worth it to get one of these 8bitdo controllers over something like a ps5 controller for pc?

>>45007

only when it's not a PS controller tbh

i can make muscle memory of the button prompts but i associate the red button with O and when i see an X i think of the button in the bottom

i know where the Xbox buttons are but my brain still can still get confused in the heat of the game

>>45008
Yeah they're a fraction of the cost and they're pretty good

>>45008
I have one and it's basically the only way to have cheap controllers with more buttons than normal

>>45008
The dualsense is a garbage controller without hall effect or tmr, and it has a shit battery life. If you want a high polling rate and gyro you buy a more expensive third party controller.
