Asscreed Shadows delayed AGAIN Anonymous 01/09/2025 (Thu) 19:25:58 Id: 8de81b No. 1059141 [Reply] [Last]
This just in, Assassin's Creed: Shadows has been delayed another two months from January 9th to March 20th. This comes directly after the report from "People Make Games" who I'm not going to link to since they're massive faggots, where one of their support studios "Brandoville" is charged with abusing Indonesia developers to make assets for the upcoming game. Not to mention the outright fuckery going on with Sweet Baby Inc and general disrespect towards Japanese culture, and you have a game that's set to crash and burn when it releases this March. This is on top of the Guillemot brothers desperately trying to retain control of the company and is trying to go private as the Tencent buyout has currently haulted according to Insider-Gaming. This is ON TOP of the failures of Star Wars, Avatar, Skull and Bones, and XDefiant with some of their failing projects far exceeding 100 million. Finally Ubisoft is likely to go private in 2025 with people within Ubisoft themselves believing that nothing will actually change if an acquisition would take place. Ubisoft is FUCKED https://archive.ph/wip/ZhFH8 https://archive.ph/wip/luh03

Post about games that you just FINISHED Anonymous 03/01/2023 (Wed) 04:03:05 Id: 4f157e No. 790791 [Reply] [Last]
I seem to be getting the strange feeling more and more that the Anons who keep posting about the games they're "playing" never actually finish those games. As in they just drop the game after a certain point and lose interest in it for whatever reason (Even if it's a great game). So, to remedy that, let's have this thread, where Anons boast about crossing off another title on the backlog. And, to guilt all the other Anons into doing the same.

>>1055736 >Characters incessantly repeat themselves in a carousel of repetition, like you're too addled to have heard them the first time. Because people addled enough to play with trash like Dragon Age: The Veilguard ARE too addled to have heard them the first time.
>>790791 I finished the two Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance games. The second game ends up with the setup for a third but it never happened because Black Isle was shut down (the inspiration for my "Vidya Necromancy" thread). The first game was rough around the edges. The entire third act didn't have a proper hub where you could replenish supplies and even recall to a place of safety until well into it. I played as the Elven sorceress because she had nice tits, and her spells and fragility made me play differently from my usual unga bunga melee builds. I had fun, even if it was unpolished in places, but some of the bosses were just damage rushes while spamming potions. The second game was much better, a real 9/10. The only thing it needed were, again, boss fights that weren't shit, especially in the latter half of the game. There are more characters to play as in the sequel (including a human cleric with even bigger tits than the elf) and I played as her for my first (and probably only) playthrough. If I do play through it again I might play as the drow, who has smaller tits, because despite being a nigger she is a monk who specialises in hand to hand unarmed combat, and I find that interesting. You spend the majority of the second game traveling in and out of Baldur's Gate, unlike the first game where it's only the first act of three. It makes for a nice consistent hub and allows for the side characters to be more fleshed out. There are side areas in the second game too, allowing for more exploration and sense of adventure, where the first game was just a linear set of dungeons with little deviation from the narrative line. All in all I'd rate the first game a five or six out of ten, and the second game an eight or nine. Three stars and four stars respectively out of five I guess. Back to playing KOTOR2 and enjoying another great developer who had the unfortunate fate of surviving until modern times and becoming a flesh-wearing shambler of its former self. RIP Black Isle and I wish you were put out of your misery Obsidian.

Most of the tumblr disco elysium liberal love is love excess everything is good audience don't even know the difference between VN and RPG. They play shit like Life is Strange because its marketed as an "interactive experience" rather than a shitty VN. Same with disco elysium which is a half baked rpg with dialogue crammed in to replace gameplay, to make you feel smart instead of having actual substance.

Sonic the Hedgehog Anonymous 10/15/2024 (Tue) 09:45:27 Id: 824c4a No. 1027938 [Reply] [Last]
With Sonic X Shadow Generations coming out in less than a week, now is a good time for a new Sonic thread. Personally I'm quite excited for the game, and am surprised it hasn't already leaked since it usually leaks around this time. Although I'm kinda disappointed we haven't seen a proper Adventure remake yet, hopefully this game will be good and will lead to good things as time goes on. Oh, and hopefully we'll get a Shadow remake that's actually good this time. I doubt SEGA has the balls to make that kinda game in the modern age though. Are you looking forward to Shadow Generations? Do you think we'll get more Sonic stages as DLC? Or will the game just be average and a waste of money and the cycle will repeat itself all over again, even though Frontiers as a modded game is solid. Still, this is the thread to discuss anything and everything Sonic the Hedgehog! please don't porn dump, I'm looking at you Bui

>>1061342 >the more I come to the conclusion that the people who actually follow these stories are unironically mentally ill. That's the reason why there is only one Chris-Chan, and there is a reason why autistic childs like Sonic THAT much
>>1061338 >You're supposed to feel bad for Lanolin. Well I don't. If you live in a world where a shapeshifting serial killer exists, one who likes to infiltrate shit and has done so in the past, you don't just brush that off. If I were there and Whisper's 'Mimic sense' went off I would be standing there next to her with everyone else at gun point doing the Macready test on everyone at the base until we smoked him out. And as far as Sonic being Rider X goes there's three possibilities you should think of 1) Sonic knows something and is trying to stop a villain, 2) Sonic is being Mind controlled, or 3) that's an evil duplicate of Sonic (imagine that! or something similar (perhaps Mimic for example). It shouldn't be so hard for a leader to parse that. The goddamn retarded hawk from the Babylon Rogues figured this out almost instantly. If you are not smarter than he is you aren't fit to run the military wing of the Restoration; you're fit to be the janitor.
>>1061345 >There is only one Chris Chan Do you not know Lazerbot? Do you not know Tamers12345? Those guys are amazing. I'm big fans of their work. All three of them. Tamers might be my favorite as an artist, but Chris Chan is the most fascinating as a person. Tamers beats Lazerbot for me, personally, but I don't want to leave him out. He's pretty damn good. >>1061346 Yeah obviously you're right, but you're forgetting one thing. The story is written by a feminist, so to her, you must always like women. Women are always right, even when they're wrong.

Not games where you play as a necromancer, but reviving dead or dying studios. Which studio would you restore to life to get their potential unlocked? For me it would have to be Black Isle. This would give us proper sequels to Baldur's Gate 2, Fallout 2, and Dark Alliance 2, as well as everything they could have done with the Aurora engine after that.

Surprised no one here brought this game up, it's an interesting little indie game. It has honestly one of the worst main characters I've seen in a while, not like in a cringe way or a cartoonish way. But someone who'd exist in real life and pull this shit bad kinda way, Jimmy is a genuinely terrible human being.

Vehicle simbiosis games Anonymous 01/12/2025 (Sun) 14:57:54 Id: b0d4ab No. 1060279 [Reply]
I'm looking for games were you have a simbiotic relationship with a vehicle as a gaming mechanic. So not simply a lore point, both in-vehicle and the on-foot parts of the game are dictated and done by the player, not something like Front Mission Evolved where you getting out of the mecha was a cutscene and you had no agency over it nor driver 2 where getting out of the car had no use aside from some small easter eggs. I'm talking about games where both are seamless and done at the player discretion and both are interesting, expected and important to the gameplay. I know these 6 games and i love each one of them (okay, maybe not RESQ, but it still has it's place in my heart) and i also played most of the Blaster Master series too. Is there any other game like that? exploration heavy games would be even better. Things like Subnautica and Outer Wilds might apply, but they are very combat averse, so i dunno if they should.

>>1062263 He could if it was an actual law. In fact, the presence of an ERA would be a guaranteed argument against the draft since the draft a sexist provision that only applies to men. Meaning the draft either needs to include women or be abolished. Also it would result in DEI being destroyed across the nation because the text of the ERA states: <Equality of rights under the law shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or by any State on account of sex. <The Congress shall have the power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article. <This amendment shall take effect two years after the date of ratification. Notice how it doesn't say "Equity", which is an entirely different word and concept. So imagine all the hilarity that will happen if Trump were to demand that Congress actually revisit ERA with the intention of passing it, in it's current form, and becoming a national amendment, and how all the baizuo, Neo-Cons, and Feminists will lose their absolute shit and try to destroy the amendment because it means that they can no longer play their Gnostic games.

Worst video game titles Anonymous 01/01/2025 (Wed) 00:06:43 Id: 09dc29 No. 1056183 [Reply] [Last]
We often hear about the worst video games of all time, but what about the worst video game titles of all time? Starting off with two of the most obvious ones >Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days That's pronounced "three hundred fifty eight over two". Yes, they want you to pronounce it "over" but didn't bother writing it as an over. It only "works" in Japanese because furigana can tell you its pronounced that way, but its dumb even there. >Infinite Undiscovery Either an "undiscovery" is "lost", which would mean total amnesia (even walking, potentially even breathing), or an "undiscovery" is "not a discovery", which means the name is saying everything within is nothing new. (dis)honorable mention >Idea no Hi This one tries to make a English pun that does not actually work. The official name in "Day of the Idea" and 1: While "idea" in standard romanization, "イデア" isn't pronounced anything like the English "Idea" (as in thought) 2: "イデア" is a person, so the definite article here is just Engrish.
