OP's pic reminds me, I need to finish Rebirth even though this "reimagining" starting with Remake has been pretty disrespectful of the original and extremely stupid in some ways (when Zack throws a big slab of rebar and concrete to down a helicopter in the opening minutes of the game it was just so retarded I almost turned it off right there heh). It has its based aspects though too; good voice acting, music, design and visuals in general-and its sense of humor really shines at times. Controversial game.

>>92503Lol, did you review it like 6 months ago or whatever? I remember reading something you or someone else posted. I played quite a bit of DRG:S. I watched a clip of a guy playing the game and he started talking about how it's all about luck (maybe both "luck" and the actual attribute "Luck" or w/e) and I thought what he was saying made sense and so I chased the high rarity rolls every time I could. Anyway I played that when it came out but haven't played in months or something. I guess I must not have actually bought the game (just torrented). Dropping $10AU to buy it is no biggie. I thought it was fun for a while, fun grind and skinnerbox gameplay loop whatevs.
Roguelites can be really addictive, like I mentioned before Against the Storm is crazy addictive, the new fishing DLC even more so it seems.
No.92530
>>92519Yeah, I had an autistic meltdown about it in an older thread. They really should close the gap between rarity values a bit. Common being a fifth of legendary is terrible. I don't like some of the new achievements with this update either. There is one for picking luck 5 times in a single run. At best, I've been able to select it 3 times. Another is for killing 3 hoarders, also in a single run. Pure RNG bullshit like the rest of the game. The trampolines on the newest map are fun I guess.

There is a new PvE MMO called Brighter Shores that just released into early access. It's made by the creator of RuneScape and appears to be similar in a lot of ways. Apparently, skills are semi-gated between "episodes". You only grind them on the episode they're from and they have little impact on episodes outside of their own. I'll have to play it a bit myself and figure out a better way to describe it.

Playing some more Brighter Shores. It's pretty fucking bad so far. I'm running around looking for someplace to sell or store all these fish I caught (items have separate banks and shops based on what skill they're associated with). The map is also segmented into separate cells almost like Bethesda games. You can see linked cells, but you have no clue what is in them until you enter. I went into another cell while looking for how to deal with my fish without just dropping them and immediately entered combat with a strong enemy that I was unable to flee from and subsequently died. This game also seems to just be clunkier than RuneScape overall. It's pretty much RuneScape but bad. There was a joke MMO that was around for a little while called Genfanad that was purposefully tedious since it was a parody of RuneScape and even that was less annoying than this has been so far.

No.92892
Well, I can safely say Brighter Shores is dogshit. The few parts of RuneScape that were fun, like acquiring expensive items and finding silly dialogue, are missing from this. The design philosophy behind this game was to make RuneScape but replace what charm it had with more tedium. RuneScape isn't known for looking pretty either, but it has more character than this pile of shit.

Wondering if it's worth making a highly simplified WYSIWYG 3D editor similar Unreal Editor, Unity Editor and Godot Editor, where you can just click and drag stuff in the viewport and save the changes. (I refuse to use an existing engine, I don't care if Godot is open source, for instance a 2011 laptop with a Core i7-2677M, 16GB RAM and SSD remains perfectly capable today but couldn't run Godot games due to lack of OpenGL 3.3 support, and Direct3D9 is perfectly sufficient for my needs). The old-school way of just making a debug build where you have on-screen info overlay, in-game console, debug mode keybindings, HUD above all game objects and so on just seems a bit cumbersome in the development workflow. Maybe I'll give it a go, if I don't complete anything functional within a few days then I'll just have to settle for the debug build approach.

>>93312It's a cool idea in it's own right. It's not an issue if you were to make it yourself, but one thing I hate about game engines is that placing objects via UI makes it difficult for me to think about it in code. You spawn a thing and it has it's own properties and script attached to it automatically, but it's hard to know where it belongs or what parameters it has. This was especially a problem for me in Godot where the documentation is often bad and sometimes it was just straight-up bugged, or I might end up having issues just because I didn't check/uncheck something in the UI.
No.93332
>>93312Nvm figured it out. Doing both sort of. Editor tool will be more like a level editor w/ 3D grid that loads terrain models and object models to adjust and save the quantities and locations of all these objects, triggers and camera locations and will export all this data with unique identifiers into a JSON file. For now I think logic/scripts/events should still be hardcoded in C++, I'm not yet convinced about Lua and whether there would be any boost to my productivity in the long run to use it so that scripts are also embedded in these JSON files, will have to research more on that.

After taking 7ish hours straight to unlock the first offline farm for alchemy (level 20) on a second character, Brighter Shores is still just as shit as I thought it was after the first couple hours (at 25 hours now). They did a couple small QoL updates, like letting you do the first interaction with nodes in a single click instead of the minimum two clicks they had at launch and adding minimal minimap movement (both of these are stock controls on RuneScape lol). This shit has the tedium of an office job, yet is somehow even less stimulating.

I see zero benefit in using Lua to handle the game scripting portion instead of hot-reloading C++ DLLs.
Initially I made the following assumption in the typical development iterative cycles where you're modifying changes in your code and testing them in-game:
Typical Lua script reloading iteration steps
1. edit code
2. save lua file
3. click game
4. press reload script hotkey
Typical C++ DLL reloading iteration steps
1. edit code
2. save C++ file
3. click terminal
4. recompile dll
5. click game
6. press reload DLL hotkey
A theoretically 50% faster workflow seemed enticing for me to use Lua. Increased productivity from a streamlined workflow is advantageous, it adds up when you're iterating like hundreds if not thousands of time over small changes (e.g. adjusting character model position coordinates in world space). But now I'm realizing I still need some way to check whether the Lua code I write or modify is syntactically correct, with means using a linter like luacheck, thus negating the supposed fewer steps benefit of Lua. So I'm settling for using C++ for everything, not just the game engine's core functions and data structures.

You can't disable the mature language filter, by the way. Pretty comical for a rated M game about humanity getting mass raped and murdered. Really hate how speech has been getting cracked down on more and more over the years when blocking and filtering have been around forever. People are pussies and want to feel better about themselves by lording a tiny shred of authority over others for any petty reason whatsoever.
Also I'm NA, if that matters for latency.
No.93625
>>93623>You can't disable the mature language filterCan't remember how that worked in classic. I found that it's still pretty permissive about what you can name yourself, both in terms of vulgarity, and how it doesn't really care about what keyboard characters you use. You can use different languages, underscores, whatever.

No.93626
>>93625I don't recall there being a filter (or at least it could be toggled if there was), though my memory isn't great. I had a WoW GM strike my account probably around ten years ago because I was being racist about the players (from the Ragnaros realm, i.e. beaners who are notoriously terrible at the game) my friend and I got matched with in a dungeon queue
in a private chat they couldn't even see. The random players all reported me because I pulled the whole first room in Azjol-Nerub as brewmaster (which is what I did every time I got the dungeon without issue any other time) and died after kiting everything for a couple minutes because I never got healed and beaners can't into interrupts. Pretty sure the healer was backpedaling toward me at one point. Anyway, it's just funny how I got kicked and mass-reported for an entirely different reason than what the GM bitched me out for. I opened another ticket and got another GM who reversed the action of the first one and apologized. Just funny how some retarded GM was personally offended by what I said to my friend in private regarding our dumpster group.

No.93629
>>93627>Revolting what WoW became after wrathWrath was probably the easiest WoW ever got (which is why so many people complained about Cataclysm actively requiring CC), it's just that Azjol-Nerub was a leveling dungeon at this point in time.
>Nothing more comfy than being a healer, laid-back in the background, choosing who lives and diesIt's a bit stupid, though. Not like it was a pull that takes big heals to clear. I've healed that same pull easily back during Wrath and after it, and brewmaster could AoE kite very easily due to how keg toss was designed at the time. It was spammable, slowed and generated threat as a ground target spell. Monks also had a good mobility spell called roll which had two charges on a short CD. Ragnaros/Quel'thalas/Azralon players are just legitimately retarded due to being brown and from countries with abysmal educational systems. They were known as the bane of LFG.
No.93640
>>93629I might be jumping in at an odd point here, but I remember when I was looking to do dungeons (I think?) and I was a mage with green gear, and I remember people being pissed off specifically that I was wearing green gear, and I would get kicked or something for it, and so I would actually equip blue or purple gear, which actually sucked worse than the green gear, but I would equip it just so people would stfu (and that parties would accept me), and then I would switch it out. At least something like that happened. I feel like I have a detail wrong. Can you switch gear out like that during a dungeon? I only played Burning Crusade for like 6 months, was nolifing it. Funny thing to happen though, I mean I'm pretty sure my green gear was better than the blue gear I had, but people just seemed to think I was bad or not helpful because of my gear. Maybe they were right idk. But it was interesting anyway... Also maybe I didn't fully understand how aggro worked. I think I'm definitely done with WoW though tbh regardless, it's too much of a time sink, with Dota or Against the Storm I can do a game for an hour or a few and I feel like its over and done with.

Not sure about getting into PoE. I think you need to pay real money for more storage and not having extra storage is supposed to make the game a lot more tedious.

>>93689Blame the players. A lot of people get upset when they can't get a "true ending" 100% playthrough of a game. That's why they removed limits on joining guilds as well. In skyrim you can be guild master of every single guild in the game and none of those duties ever conflict with one another.
"Time sensitive" tasks in games are even more poorly looked upon. Look at how many people disliked majoras mask for example in comparison to oot. MM is a superior game in almost every respect but people didn't like that they couldn't dick around forever, and that their "progress" got reset.

So BG3 only got all the hype because of the bear sex meme, right? Because anybody who's actually played the game knows it's a buggy, poorly written, unfinished mess, right? God awful experience, the worst I've had since back when I forced myself to play LoL. Apparently there's an update coming next year but it's not to fix anything, it's just to add new subclasses which nobody asked for. Not even all the subclasses, just one per class.

>hey bro come here>wanna learn some magic bro>damn that magic was like, poof, gj>btw you feel really intimate with gale right now>despite the fact that he's an ostensibly heterosexual man who's previous lover was female>my dude stares longingly into gales eyes>break it off, rest of the scene plays out really awkwardlyGenerally I've found the game pretty good at telegraphing when a romantic encounter was going to happen, but that one blindsided me. Unfortunate. Feels like the romance system was tacked on at the last minute tbh, and you can see why they did it because it seems to be all people can talk about when they talk about the game. I think the game is genuinely good, like the combat is great, the plot is engaging, the characters are fun when they aren't trying to get in your pants, but the romance crap gets under my skin.
>half-elf princessMassive bitch. Hate every interaction I'm forced to have with her. I can't think of a single character I'd want to bang other than maybe Karlach but I'd need some resist fire potions to slam that tiefussy.

>>94088>the combat is greatIt can be. Sometimes the game likes to blindside you with total nonsense, and because you can't trust autosave it's a risk of losing a disgusting amount of time if the ten enemies with three attacks rape your party to death to the last save point. I ran into some real bullshit in the Underdark, when I entered into it from the Goblin stronghold. I thought I was clever getting around the death laser, but then almost immediately got absolutely fucked by the mini-beholder that's just kind of chilling on the side. Never did manage to kill him, ended up sneaking my way through the whole of the Underdark out of paranoia. And then I got to Grymforge. Fuck that fight. Maybe I'm a retard but it took way too long to figure out how to kill all of those Duergar without killing the Gnomes in turn. Except that at the end of the fight, the rolling ball of fire I summoned rolled into one of the Gnomes on its way to me for whatever god damn reason and I couldn't shake the agro. So I ran my characters to the portal then portal'ed back, thinking they'd have calmed their shit. Instead the whole place was empty and the big baddie I was there to kill in the first place had his corpse sitting out in from of the pile I was supposed to blow up. THEN I went to the lower area to the forge and got surprise merced by a horde of devils, THEN I went to the forge itself only to get surprised by the boss. I had more issues Grymforge than I did the rest of the Underdark or the Shadowfel-touched place afterwards. Or at least I did until I went to storm Moonrise, which is where I am now. What really bothered me was that Hagrid or whatever his name is told me that it was safer going into the Underdark than it was taking the mountain pass. I went back through the mountain pass afterwards and despite some issues with ghouls and the silly Gith demigod, it wasn't that bad comparatively.

The then hobgoblin did this pushback attack and knocked her flying off a platform into a pit of spiders. She had to fight her way clear from the pit while the rest of the party fought a desperate battle against the rest of the goblins.
Was kino as fuck.

I feel like video games are a form of art, and a very important part of modern culture. The experience of playing a video game and sharing it with your friends is a kind of modern day mythology, like telling stories of heroes and adventures around a campfire in olden times.
Maybe it's more accurate to say, video games want to be art, but they're treated like products. Corpos don't see them as anything other than a throwaway item to be consumed and forgotten about, or alternatively milked mercilessly with all sorts of gambling systems and dlcs and reboots and other scams until there's just a husk remaining. As long as these KIKES have their claws on video games, and can claim that they own cultural symbols and have the right to destroy them, these tragedies will play out again and again.

This shouldn't prevent MO2 from opening, but it causes a lot of conflicts for Bethesda games when one folder is named "meshes" and the other folder is named "Meshes" for example.

I'm retarded. That Elden Ring expansion I mentioned is actually a standalone co-op roguelike thing. If that sounded cool, or at least didn't sound stupid enough, it won't have PVP at all. A good 85-90% of the fun in these games is the spontaneous PVP. I loved these games because they reminded me of leveling on WoW PVP servers in years past. The enemies were already fucky sometimes, but having a real bastard or two enter my world to fuck my shit up was exhilarating (besides when they were obviously hacking with flying, impossible spell spam, infinite HP, etc. of course). Invading was also fun since it was often 1v2 or 1v3 and taught you how to deal with multiple player enemies in these games. To make a game entirely devoid of the essence that defined this series is a very strange design choice to me.

1. Gaming has always been looked down upon by the Linux community.
Here is Linus Torvalds on video saying he doesn't care about video games:
https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1d44psi/ive_just_this_linus_video_where_linus_basically/He's made similar statements before about that. So has Richard Stallman. If the de facto CEO of Linux has this attitude, which of course rolls downstream, what type of community do you think Linux would have?
There's also a segment of the Linux community that does indeed game, but whenever you point out any issues with compatibility and user-friendliness they plug their ears and scream "SHUT UP, YOU'RE A M$ SHILL! SHUT UP! M$ WINDOW$ IS WORSE! TYPING IN THE TERMINAL AND HAVING TO TYPE YOUR PASSWORD FOR EVERY SINGLE THING YOU DO IS WAY MORE USER-FRIENDLY THAN CLICKING NEXT A BUNCH OF TIMES ON A GUI INSTALLER!!!! HOW MUCH DID BILL GATE$ PAY YOU?!!"
You can find those freaks on gamingonlinux.com/forum, reddit.com/r/linux_gaming, Ubuntu forums, YCombinator, Phoronix and so on.
2. I explained over here how Linux fundamentally is not designed for gaming, especially for building native ports (as opposed to relying on Wine/Proton, (which emulates the necessary parts of the APIs of Win32, Direct3D9, Direct3D11, DirectSound, XAudio2, XInput and so on, all of which by the way are STABLE unlike Linux equivalents, meaning they are unchanging and expected to continue work in future Windows versions of updates):
https://8chan.moe/v/res/1045288.html#q10483473. Unix was a multi-user OS created by AT&T to be sold to businesses, universities and services and was specifically designed to run on mainframe computers which cost at least tens of thousands of dollars. Mainframe is what they used to call servers. The kind of software or more commonly "scripts" that was made for Unix was seen as throwaway and not expected to last forever (in terms of compatibility based on its dependencies), in other words it's like it's always "unfinished" and expected to be broken at some point. The Linux community faithfully follows that tradition, with a "free software" ideology on top of it.
4. Commodore 64, PC-98 (Japan), AmigaOS and MS-DOS is where all the game "demoscene", game "hackers" and modders have been, and now Windows is the last remaining place for that. These are home PC-oriented operating systems in which software developers design software with user-friendliness in mind, often with a GUI installer. Unix, which Linux is a clone of, was never home PC-oriented, and it shows in the inherent design as well as the attitudes of its developers.

>>95292To be fair, blender is actually usable now that normal people know about it. You're broadly right though, and I'm not arguing. I want to say it's just autism, but no. I think freetards/linuxsisters actually intentionally make things difficult to use.
There's two angles to this. One is financial: open source developers don't get paid for their product directly. However, they
do get paid for "software support". I think the most egregious example of this is the X windows system in linux, which has an instruction manual the size of a rack of encyclopedias. It's utterly inscrutable to normal users, but the person who made it knows how it works, and can sell zir troubleshooting services. STI also ran a software support scam for tinyboard, which is a similarly terrible piece of software.
The second issue is purity seeking/exclusivity in the free software community. These people enjoy having a "secret club" and making their software more accessible would allow more people to enjoy it. Learning to use awkward, inferior programs is a sort of hazing ritual for joining the linux cult, along with ordering thigh highs and taking estrogen.
