What is your opinion on proliferation of porn games on mainstream gaming platforms?

Like when I first saw shit that I am used to downloading off F95zone popping up on Steam and GoG I got weirded out, but then I though about it and its probably for the best, maybe this will encourage higher quality games rather than shovelware trash dominating the industry currently.

VNs aren't games

Bastard bonds is ok but there's not really much gay content and the gameplay gets old like a 1/3rd thru the campaign
It feels like a good foundation of a game but there's just not enough content for the expected playtime. It's a shame we'll probably never going to get a sequel actually using the potential of the concept.

Steam has fallen.

>>30422
I swear this guy is pumping out a game each month

>>30422
how do you even play these? Do you just click stuff to activate animations?

>>30424
Basically yeah. It's about as erotic as bumping Barbie and Ken together.

Everybody should play such a thing at least once. A new WarioWare will release November 2023.

Just played through WarioWare Get It Together for Switch and it's not bad, but WarioWare Gold on the 3DS was massively better. And not because the number of micro games is now smaller, as some people are saying. WWGIT has the twist that you visit a micro game as one of several characters with drastically different abilities (some can fly, one can teleport etc.) and it makes such a huge difference that it practically amounts to a much higher number of different micro games than what a direct count tells you. Another thing some people say is Gold was better because it had variety in controls like touch screen stuff and this one is only analog stick plus one button, but it seems just as many people found the constant change in controls in Gold annoying (though it had modes available limited to specific schemes).

What makes WWGIT the lesser entry compared to Gold by a significant margin are mainly two things:
1. The relatively low amount of bonus stuff and game modes, especially in single player. You unlock a "Variety Pack" of ten games, six of which are multiplayer only for no particular reason.
2. The high randomness even by WW standards which makes playing for score extremely frustrating. It shouldn't be a surprise that they did not tightly balance the difficulty of the several thousand possible combinations of this character & that micro game, but what is remarkable is the size of the discrepancy.
It would have been trivial to mitigate both problems.

Space-taxi guys can shoot in one direction sideways & fly around freely. Ninja girls can shoot in one direction sideways & constantly jump and can only be steered left and right. Take a guess who does worse on average (should have a charge-up ability for the shot to make up for that). 9-Volt zips around automatically and you can't make him change direction unless you hang on to something. Couldn't they have made it so that the stick modifies his movement just a little bit to make him bearable, jeez. Wouldn't even use him if he had a 1-up mushroom in his pocket. Penny has a cumbersome control concept made even worse because it uses button toggling to hover in place instead of button holding. (Oh and why doesn't any character know how to duck? Clumsy bunch.)

The game makes yoPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

McPixel kinda fits the bill, especially the latest episodes but it is generally more like a point-and-click trial-and-error game than a microgame.

There is actually a series of games which predates WarioWare: Bishi Bashi by Konami. Don't think many people outside of Japan have heard about it.

>>29897
Neato!

There's the usual mode in Get It Together where you can play a single micro game over and over. I can report that the counter for rounds for doing that goes to 999, then just stops and the game just goes on. How lame. I think this mode would be better with these changes:
-no extra life
-big speed bumps at 50 & 80
-score should not just be rounds, add a fractional digit behind the round counter
-the screen should just explode and end it when you get through round 99.

It's better than Fallout 3 in almost every way except the world itself. Bland and mostly empty space, no random encounters or anything worth exploring that made the capital wasteland fun and unpredictable. The New Vegas Strip is too small and boring. I'll admit that Obsidian has nothing on Bethesda in terms of immersive and atmospheric worlds (Ahem, The Outer Worlds). Yeah, yeah it was made in only 18 months. We need a remake of the game for this reason.

Oh yeah, pic related.

I mean arguably Bethesda and other devs have been trying to do that for years and failing lol

I think also the truth is NV wouldn't be considered that good if it came out today, the easy wins have already been accomplished and we're not kids anymore, we have higher standards

>>30376
Why wouldnt it be considered great? Its not like since 2010 there has been a bounty of great open world RPGs raising the bar. Even in vanilla state its one of the best RPGs I played, and modded it might be the best.

>>30378
I dunno, I tried playing it a year or two ago and it just felt not that great to me, now that I'm not a kid the repetitiveness and poor combat really stands out more

the ray tracing mod for Half Life 1 has been released! Not gonna post a link because it's gonna look like spam(?), but you can find it easily. i'm really enjoying playing the game again with a new coat of paint

Why not just play black mesa?

To display some of the ingenuity of Ohshima, and his unfortunately scorned cohort Naka, we must look at the Box Fox. The Box Fox is a powerup from Balan Wonderworld that has gained infamy; yet, the source of its infamy is entirely the incompetence and slow-mindedness of e-celebs.
The player will acquire the Box Fox powerup in the 4th level on a cliffside abound with slopes, at which point they will be told that the Box Fox will randomly transform them into a box. Almost all players will then start walking backwards down the slope, at which point they will be turned into a box and slide off the cliff to their death.
The humor of the moment is unmistakable. The Box Fox is based on the shapeshifting kitsune of Japanese myth, known for their pranks and mischief. To kill the player in such a comical manner is befitting of their nature. The player will lose, at the very most, 30 seconds of progress, due to the Box Fox being discovered very shortly after a checkpoint. The player will lose nothing but the Box Fox powerup itself.
So why did the internet at large mock Balan Wonderworld for the Box Fox? It's simple. Low IQ people don't like a joke being made at their expense. The concept of a game killing them for a joke is too far, especially in a game like Balan Wonderworld which most of them were already predisposed to hate because of its reputation and dogpiling at the time of release. Rather than identifying the Box Fox as a clear joke, they instead ascribed it to poor design, due to the aforementioned low IQ. That being said, if a powerup like the Box Fox were in Mario Odyssey or some other Nintendobab game, they would have posted about it on Reddit on mass numbers praising it for its wittiness. Herein lies the idiocy of Balan Wonderworld's critics.

A pretty common but good taste. I wish my PC was not so shit and I could play any Dark Souls game without it being on the verge of exploding.
Also, Twisted Metal definitely needs to make a comeback and maybe do a crossover with Carmageddon.

>>30294 thx for the compliment even though you kinda called me a basic bitch ❤❤❤

I don’t get the writers decision to keep vault tec and the enclave as separate factions, or even not make the first antagonists of the first games explicitly the corporation. They’re the first roadblock to the health and longevity to a substantial portion of humanity, they’re responsible for most of the major innovations used by settlers, raiders and officers alike, they should’ve been the first major faction.

>>30329
"Ongoing drills in completed Vaults slowly created a cry wolf effect: Turnouts for the drills fell as the years went on, limiting the Vaults' future role in ensuring the survival of humanity.[Non-game 10] However, even if they didn't, the shadow government decided against Vaults being shelters for preserving humanity.[Non-game 11] After establishing control over Project Safehouse, they subverted it to their own ends. Rather than act to save humanity, Vaults were built to test their population as part of the Societal Preservation Program.[30] Only 17 of the Vaults were designed to work properly as control Vaults.[31] The 105 other Vaults featured a variety of scenarios, ranging from annoying to downright lethal, to gauge how humans acted in these scenarios for their own, nefarious purposes.[Non-game 12] Some were not provided with enough food synthesizer for their population, others had only men in them, or were designed to open prematurely. The purpose of this experiment was to gather data for the Enclave's own projects, the exact purpose of which is unclear.[32]"

Tldr: Vault Tec was taken over by the enclave who only intended to use the vaults for research purposes, they didn't care about them beyond that. Vault Tec was just a corrupt corporation that wanted to make money out of making vaults, they either didn't think the war would actually happen or didn't really care and just wanted to make money.

>>30332
God this would be such a satisfying way to conclude that faction if not for the fact that that kind of realism in fallouts writing was consistent across all the games.

I only appreciate dark story telling in games when the aesthetics match the writings tone. The environmental design is fine, but the character designs are so fucking bad and cartoonish. Just like the entire fallout series where the lore is painful and dark, but every NPC wears power ranger gear and borderline BDSM equipment for clothing along with using goofy looking firearms, rather than wear the mass produced nylon and cotton clothing proles internationally use on top of using standard pistols, assault rifles and everyday blades for self defence.
I get that Kenshis different but man it gets frustrating to see.

one day i will have a PC that can run this game

I've almost "beat" the game once but it started getting unstable once I headed to the ashlands. Southern Hive raids were spawning when they weren't supposed to and the game would crash when they'd get near my outpost, importing didn't fix it and resetting the world state completely was too demoralizing to consider. Maybe another time. My favorite part of the game is doing assaults on minor outposts, it's just chaotic enough with some bonus objectives like freeing slaves without turning into a slog like the late game where enemies just keep getting up over and over and you have to individually confiscate all of their weapons and med kits to make sure they can be easily KO'd again. Taking out the Southern Hive was also a ton of fun because you're so deep in enemy territory and the hostile patrols are relentless.

>>30277
Fallout's aesthetic is meant to be retro futurism meets Road Warrior (at least until 4) and Kenshi's is sci-fi samurai, they aren't meant to emulate reality and doing so wouldn't make them better games, thematically or in terms of gameplay.

>>30281
It would be really satisfying to see the aesthetics match the writing like in rain world, cyberpunk and dark souls 3. Players are less likely to feel completely disconnected from the world they take part in when what’s visually communicated to the player matches up with the world around them. It also helps make serious moments in the games stories feel a lot more organic than feel out of place.

David Cage was 100% right on this one, they are failure of game design. Both immersion braking and challenge trivializing, because what are you going to do when you loose the game? Hit the reload button and continue like nothing happened.
I recently finished Battlefleet Gothic: Armada, and just now rage-uninstalled its sequel, and these two games perfectly illustrate why game over screens are bullshit. In the first game, you loose the game when you loose 50 systems to enemy (and also final mission I guess), other than that you can fail any single mission and continue the game, but of course, now having to deal with consequences of your failure. You failed to protect a system? You get debuff until you reclaim it. You failed to protect a system in one of the story missions against Planet Killer? You get debuff, but no way to remove it because there is no longer a system to reclaim. Failed to keep artifact out of hands of Chaos? They are more aggressive now. Got your ship damaged? Pay to speed-repair then or make do for couple turns without it. Even if the story is basically linear, it still lets player build their own narrative this way.
Now in Battlefleet Gothic 2, whats that, enemy decided to focus fire and blow up your admiral? Eat shit, game over, reload. Nothing, no consequences, just bad taste in your mouth. And there is no reason it had to be this way. Even if he just respawns, you still at very least get punished by loosing a ship. Or have player pay for having him respawn, of reset his level, give him some negative trait, anything.
Anyway, because I am a retard with no self control, I am currently trying to recover the deleted save files so I can reinstall the game and continue. I am going to make my own "game over" free houserule, reload right before the battle, delete my fleet, and continue from there.

/v/irgin rage lmao

Guys I have problem:

I played a game about a guy who’s a piece of shit unlikable character. Now me, being a cool intellectual, I understand perfectly fine that art doesn't have to be likeable. An artist can create unlikable main characters in order to make a point. I enjoyed it ironically. But later I read an interview and the dude who wrote the story for the game actually thinks the douche main character is actually cool. So it turns out I wasn't playing a good game at all! I feel violated.

Can you help me out here. I need some donations so I can buy the copyright to the game IP and as the owner of the IP I can then declare that it is official canon that the character is a douche and NOT cool and so my own coolness hymen will be restored. Thnx.

>I can make him write multiple paragraphs
secretly you know that I am right and you are wrong

>>30183
I watched Mandalores video and read some steam reviews, and apparently its only Chaos campaign that is like this, and others are better. Suck so much, Chaos barely ever gets presence in games as anything other than antagonist, and even those couple times it does ends up poorly implemented. Total War Warhammer had similar issue, where Chaos campaign was generally considered to be borderline unplayable until the 3th game came out.

>>30150
I know it is not what you are saying exactly but also from a decent story writing perspective it is important to let the consumer experience failure as a part of the story, these kind of game over systems, progress only when winning, often only encourage the same old stale power fantasies hat honestly should be grown out of before one hits 19 years old.
In my opinion at least.
