just played bioshock for the first time and holy shit, its like the best game ive ever played. the story the gameplay all were amazing, new video games just domt have the same feel yk? why? what happened to video games in the last 20 years? i mean not only is it a good game but a potent critque of capitalism and ayn rand

>>46838
Is it a real game? I thought it was a series of water pipe puzzles.

>>46838
>Criticizes Ayn Rand and capitalism
The creator is a radical centrist hack so it's a actually a (liberal) critique of Israel

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!

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.

That's exactly why I pick the immersive crafting mods in vintage story, so that I don't have to use a menu and can just assemble things together in the world

>>46202
True but print playthroughs were big, first game I played was some domestic puzzle game… with a guide lol. Not to mention older psychotically trial-and-error text adventures. Must have been made so by publishers to sell guides.

>>46217
apples and oranges that came out 16 years apart

>>46183
The Median Mod of Diablo 2 had some cool crafting recipes in the horadric cube but it got out of control. I kinda assumed they were copying stuff from World of Warcraft or something I dunno never played it dunno how it compares to modern games either.

>I Made A PVP Smithing Game
>For the past 8 months, I have been working on an online multiplayer game called A Smithing Game. In this game, you smith weapons and fight other players with them. Let me know what you think of A Smithing Game in the comments or by leaving a review on Steam!
https://store.steampowered.com/app/4541460/A_Smithing_Game/

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!

Anybody playing ebb esoteric?
Obvious inspiration from Disco Elysium and DnD, with more overt political tones.
I haven't played much past the intro, but the socialist path seems to be just social democracy, whereas the revolutionary path is as a bourgeois revolutionary

>Every year that rolls on I hate DND more and more.
Tolkein:
<"Now goblins are cruel, wicked, and bad-hearted. They make no beautiful things, but they make many clever ones. They can tunnel and mine as well as any but the most skilled dwarves, when they take the trouble, though they are usually untidy and dirty"
Tolkien fanboys:
>"nooo you dirty Palestinian tunnel-digging goy cattle can't dehumanize ME!!! Calling my DSA friends who play tabletop games 'small soul bugmen' is the real fascism. Our colonialism is in the past, we're all woke liberals who are better now [CITATION NEEDED] and we totally don't define our entire personality around our anarcho-neoliberal utopia of sex slave trafficking. Actually all my DSA Trot friends agree that Jeffrey Epstein's Ukrainian holes consented, our real problem is the Stalinist authoritarianism that resisted our colonialist oppression of those Russian orcs and goblins who us PMC Zionist redditors are disgusted by"

>it's literally New Vegas
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.

>>46473
>Tolkien fanboys:

Real ones know that your characterization of orcs and goblins is more nuanced than your cherry picked quote.

>>46471
Sounds like it would get boring after a while

This game was very good, I enjoyed it a lot. Highly recommend to everyone.

>>46471
Now I'm curious, show me your greatest hits



 

Materialist explanation for Videogame voice acting STILL being fucking shit even after decades?
American dubs of Japanese games are probably the worst offenders of this.

valve can't stop just adding Jerma to their games.

>>46743
>theater actors doing VA do better job than VAs
No shit? A lot of american VAs are self-taught people who did voicework in shit like abridged series and newgrounds animations. It's not taken seriously like in japan where IIRC they have schools specifically for VAing alone.

FfXII had theater actors and it's VA is peak.

>>46743
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.



 

Imagine getting pornomogged by two shitty gacha games that released sooner than your slop
I thought this was the game that would shift the vibes forever

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.

>>46731
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.

So is house telvanni SUPPOSED to resemble israel/israeli culture?

They’re a group of supremacists (largely but not necessarily ethnic supremacists, since any race can join but their ranks are mostly dark elves), they keep slaves, and a lot of their buildings are named “tel __” (tel aviv?)

>>46711
Yes, also dark elves were persecuted and genocided elsewhere. Obvious parallel

>>46711
they are more like a pro-mageocracy coalition of nobles. that's what the great houses are, essentially clan networks of land owners. they aren't distinct from the rest of dark elf society as their own country, they are a faction within it.



 

Will there still be a class system in RPG videogames after the revolution destroys capitalism?

I think classless is the better option for tabletop rpgs and single player videogames but class systems do add a lot to multiplayer coop. It also depends on how the class system is done. I like how FFV and FFT do them.

Bump.

>>39445
Yeah, obviously people will have talent or preferences for one way of doing things in general but you won't be locked into one 'class'

I like the way zangband's "realms of magic" (http://www.thangorodrim.net/zangband/docs/magic.html) act as specializations for wizards, clerics and hybrid classes. While Death and Chaos are mostly pure destruction and Life restoration, Sorcery, Nature and Trump mix in a lot of utility and flavor.

>>40798
There will be neither. Communism is a classless society, no we are not keeping your 'scientific' classes, they will be liquidated just like every other class.
