i remastered my M1912 originally meant to update my mod:

https://www.nexusmods.com/newvegas/mods/94026

but unfortunately the modder behind the framework i was using for the mod, has a lot of drama going on with some other chuds Xilandro and Hitman and they make compatibility with his weapon framework mod impossible for the stupidest reasons.

so i thought of porting it into PAYDAY 2, but it just got updated to the new 64bit engine

so we're gonna have to wait to see this anywhere because i'm also going through like trans menopause and i literally feel like i'm dying so.

>I want to use a very light-weight LLM to provide very short but organic dialogue about the context they're in, such as the objects around them, what the player is doing and so forth.
maybe you could combine normal-ass decision trees with LLMs, i think a good approach to experiment with would be to procedurally assemble prompts, and then pass them to a tiny LLM and show the result to the player. it's basically dialog trees with extra steps, but maybe there's something cool there i dunno.

btw you wouldn't be the first to bundle an AI gen model, inzoi has stable diffusion built in to make custom assets. the results are horrible shit but it's there. dummies are trying to cancel inzoi for this for some reason

>>47471
>for some reason
>the results are horrible shit
sounds like a good reason

>>47473
ok i said "for some reason" but actually they are not mad at the lousy output but because they thought the stable diffusion model was an inhouse inzoi model and not, uh, stable diffusion, and they thought that was "more ethical". it is actually just a useless feature.

damn i wish i cared about small sized youtube channel's quixotic crusade against whatever entertainment medium they feel has slighted their dumb politics, unfortunately i need to watch the vinny vinesauce weird cat games video instead because it's at the top of my frontpage

1) your brain is as poisoned by culture war as the guy who made this video
2) /v/tards are moved by nothing but spite for whoever they perceive to be the "normies" and will come up with any reason to hate anything associated with them. their words are insincere hot air and do not need any attention

Morality is a spook or something.

i dont think they have crippling debt, if it's anything like the US military they were probably pretty posh to begin with: since piloting has a high barrier of entry, then pilots are usually people who come from well-off families who can afford to dedicate themselves to the entire process. so it is kind of an "art-imitates-life" thing – fox withdrew from corneria's army and even convinced slippy to do so as well, to start his own career in the private market, which is kind of what happens in the US: fighter jet pilots are extremely scarce because they often leave for PMCs or commercial airlines (which strained the US bombing operations in iran). this scarcity seems to be the case for corneria's army as well, since general pepper is desperate to fill in the ranks with extremely expensive mercenaries. if anything fox is a ruthless businessman, deliberately mooching off corneria's army after receiving training from them, and then double dipping by charging them for the favor of filling in corneria's ranks, fully knowing that corneria's defense army is lacking in fighter pilots. if pepper wasn't an imbecile, he would lock his ass up and then make it punishable to defect from the army.

Playing Stalker Anomaly because Stalker 2 is apparently anti-soviet and piece of shit in general

I played it for the first time about 6 months ago. Got the "bad" ending and was then too lazy to go back and keep playing for the other endings. It felt like a weird cross between Half Life 1 and Fallout 3. It was very linear, but also kind of "open world." There's factions but it's super easy to permanently piss them off. Duty was on my ass every time I was in the Bar area and I had to save scum and keep killing them until there was a mountain of corpses outside the bar. I didn't like all the backtracking to do side quests, which for me is the main thing I usually do in games like this. I did like the realism of the firefights which was ahead of its time. Guns felt correctly inaccurate from a distance and taking out random unaligned stalkers in their little hideouts was riveting. The anomalies were sometimes interesting but usually really annoying. I found myself selling the artifacts instead of wearing them, because I preferred to have a lot of guns and health packs.

You probably might want to skip Clear Sky if you didn't totally fall in love with the first game, but Call of Pripyat improves upon SoC in almost every aspect, I swear. The basic idea of the game and mostly the engine is the same of course.

While I find your analysis of the game pretty much accurate, I don't even know why but I think STALKER is my favorite game series ever? I've spent 140 hours in SoC alone. I think it's the atmosphere. And mods make the games more open-world so you can waste away days playing

Stalker 2 is just trying to ape Metro instead of actually embracing what was good about Stalker

no one knows about this indie game, OP

Portal 2.

Portal had an ominous atmosphere with Aperture Science largely being a mystery, with it being uncertain whether they were as unethical as the test chambers would suggest or whether it's a result of GlaDOS taking over.
Portal 2 completely destroys that mystery by repeatedly insisting upon itself that Aperture Science was extremely unethical.. but only out of stupidity, then Valve makes Aperture Science a self-insert for their 9001 VR tech demos.

I get they weren't going to get through a much longer game without some kind of story that elaborates on Aperture Science, but the writers made every single aspect of Aperture Science goofy and wacky and lol robots ftw.

And then they had the barefaced cheek, the fucking bollocks, to complain that "the cake is a lie" was overdone, unfunny and had to be excluded from their wackiness.

half life 2 no, but definitely the episodes and alyx

All Final Fantasy games. I haven't played a single one which ddn't have a totally ridiculous story. All Persona games too for that matter. 200 fucking hours of high school cringe dialogue simulaton stuffed with the most boring combat system ever made by any human being.
I demand total jap game dev death NOW

VA-11HALLA, Logic Bombs, Underrail, Colony Ship, Age of decadence, anything made by a /v/irgin.

Wtf is "save rooms irl"

bazinga

Decoration style with emphasis on candles, wooden crates and old-timey typewriters. Usually soothing background music is listened while drinking red cocktails or taking a nap in such spaces.

I can see how "Kishotenketsu" is pretentious if you just mean to say a "story without a villain". The "engine grain" refers to how games made in the same engine tend to look similar, especially if devs don't fiddle much with the defaults, and I think it's an OK word. One must have a super-human sensing for when people are being pretentious if that word triggers something, though I can imagine such a person existing. But "invisible walls" is just self-explanatory. And "sound chip", wtf?

>>47420
doesn't 'sound chip' refer to older consoles that had a dedicated sound card, like the sega genesis' yamaha ym2612?

I'm honestly just waiting for the next Sonic game, there's nothing else that really hyped me in the last 1 or 2 years.

gta 6, persona 6, cassette beasts 2002, Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave

>>46734

those are not my games, those are just the top page games with most mods in Nexus :T

i remember being really hyped for Skyrim in 2011
then playing it in 2016 and being like "this is just a frozen desert :T"

then i installed a shit ton of sex mods and it was when i realized that i didn't like having sex in videogames, til i started playing as a woman named, you guessed it; "lilith"
but it wasn't as immersive, so i casually tricked my parents into telling me the name i would've had if i had been born a cis female.

And it was "Sabina", and i loved it so much i just legally changed it to it :)

Gears E-Day looks fun

DELTARUNE CHAPTER 6!!!!!!!!

why does everyone in this mod's loading screen looks like they want to die?

No anime

This is either a painting of the middle ages or something heavily inspired by this, and European medieval painters were not good at faces in general. It's a question for art historians really.

I wish I could play even bigger battles in this.

Bro, in fable 3 you essentially have to become a landlord or you cannot get all your citizens to survive.
Half the damn game is landlord sim.

This looks like Fable 1 if it got fed through an AI filter.

Peter Molyneux is the king of hacks, and those people are always smarmy capitalists promising the world only to go away with money bags while the cucksumers are left empty except for disappointment. It completely makes sense that this Fable is like that because he gave that degenerate DNA to the game. Remember that "Curiosity: What's Inside The Cube" shit was a huge scam.

I interpret it as you need to nationalize the land to finance your military defense without otherwise fucking over society.

Still, it would have been much better if the game operated with real resources & industrialization & militarization were real issues with tradeoffs (including needing to crush at a few large landowners & capitalists to get ahead without fucking over the majority of the population too much).
