It seems I missed a lot of content since then, like Velkhana getting added to the game. Also downloaded some mods to make the game slightly less annyoing. (Prism bird mod specifically, having to chase birds around for full HP is the most ridiculous idea these guys came up with)

Speaking of mmos I tried OSRS after the talk of it here and I have a weird observation. It almost feels...Christian? And by that I mean in a Tolkien or CS Lewis way where its a fantasy world almost completely devoid of sexuality or sex appeal. This is common enough in books but fantasy games usually know how to appeal to their audience.

SVO, phone inventory looks to be the same as Jap's but with a few unused combinations and more consonant clusters, very, very few conjugations, nothing too crazy there. The really cool part is the opening emotion sounds at the start at the sentence and the ones below. Six dialects, with New Testament of Pastalie being unusable by anyone who's not a Reyvateil? What's its relevance? As for its romanization, uppercase or even numbers being used in broad transcription isn't particularly rare, like /niQpoN/ or *h₄órǵʰiyeh₂.
The special uppercase is reserved for Pastalian, whose verb roots have empty slots in which emotional sounds are inserted (a lot like Semitic roots). So, in hLYUmLYUmOrO, the root is h.m.m.r., to sing, and what is inserted is LYU-LYU-O-O. It's singing
aggressively , I gather. The dialect also has a unique subject marker in which another emotion can be added, x., that's the xA/xI at the start of the sentence. Didn't understand what's up with the non-letters and binary stuff, though.

>>108654 The Pastalie dialect is unusable by anyone who isn't a specific breed of Reyvateil
Going a bit into the detail for the binary stuff, Reyvateils are essentially semi-cyborg girls. The magic in Ar Tonelico all happens via the titular Ar Tonelico, a massive tower stretching all the way to space.
In a nutshell, the tower absorbs sound using some special magical stone/crystals which can release what's essentially magical energy. The tower processes and amplifies the energy by a lot of magnitudes.
A reyvateil, when singing, connects to the tower and transfers her feelings to it. The tower translates and processes her desires and transfers energy to the reyvateil, letting her use her magic.
It's a pretty common trope these days, but the tower is a product of advanced science (mixed with magic), and reyvateils, at least the original ones, were lab-born specifically tailored to connect to the tower.
Basically, rayvateils are a manufactured race that have IP addresses and they can connect to a massive super magic wand which brute-force grants them magic.
The pastalie dialect is (spoiler'd just in case)
a heavily modified hymmnos, made to be used with a different tower-like device which serves its own custom modified sub-race of Reyvateils called I.P.Ds It's worth spending hours in the wikia if you're a lore fan. There's so much technical detail to it all you'd almost think they just yoinked it from a real world concept or something.

>>108726 I remember that this was first leaked/teased sometime around 2020 so hopefully with a full trailer out now that means its fast approaching its release date. There was a whole lot of cut content from the original because they didn't have enough time, so I'd love if this one could be the dream vision they had for the original. Like one of the things I noticed in the trailer is that it appears there's people riding a griffin, and unique and organic fast travel methods was one of the things that the devs wanted to put into the original. Hoping the world snake makes it in.

>>108111 I really like Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory.
It's a free (and now open-source) 2000s multiplayer FPS game. It's available on Splash Damage's site, Steam and there is also a 3rd-party enhanced (but 100% compatible) version called ET Legacy. In Enemy Territory, you choose a class (each class has something special, Examples: Soldiers can choose MG42 (and some other special weapons) as their weapon, Engineers can plant landmines and dynamites and Covert Ops can steal uniform from dead enemies. Dynamites are also used for some map objectives (like you need to blow up a gate or something). Of course, enemy engineers can try to disarm your dynamite, so your team has to protect it. There are also more things that make each class special. There are also a ton of maps and mods made by the community.
I recommend you give it a try if you like FPS games. It's free! And it also works on Linux (you need the 32-bit aka multilib version to play most mods).
Links and Tips:
>ET Legacy (recommended and easiest option): https://www.etlegacy.com >"vanilla" Enemy Territory: use Steam or download it from https://www.splashdamage.com/games/wolfenstein-enemy-territory/ >Find servers: either use ET Legacy or https://et.splatterladder.eu/?mod=serverlist >More links: https://github.com/etlegacy/etlegacy/wiki/Useful-Links Note1: If you choose to download ET from Splash Damage site, you also need to download your personal etkey from http://etkey.net (place it in your etmain folder, also do not share your ETkey to others!). I recommend you get ET: Legacy (recommended) or the Steam version, so you don't need to manually generate a etkey for these. I recommend you use Vanilla/Steam version only if you get problems with ET Legacy.
Note2: The "vanilla" version of Enemy Territory and the Steam version require that you run 1 console command in the game. You can open the console in game by pressing the key under your ESC key. Press it, and type /seta r_primitives 2
Otherwise you get bad performance with modern GPUs! ET Legacy doesn't require this setting. To apply this setting, you need to reopen ET. If you want to mute voice chat aka vsays, you can also type this in the console: /seta cg_noVoiceChats 1

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DFJNz7lNDVk New armored core gameplay and it looks amazing. The map is already the biggest its ever been in any AC game. Permaflight from FA is in, and considering the scope of the map I think it makes sense. I still can't tell if lock-on is confirmed or not, still seems like it could be tied to FCS as it has been for traditional AC games.
Only thing I don't care for is the melee combo you see at 1:59. This is the only thing I'd say has a real so*ls feel to it. Other than that I'm very excited, hope we get PVP info soon.

Looks a lot more Hack and Slashy than slow and sluggish soulsy, and I'd be extremely welcoming of a nicer melee than what the prior games had because it's probably one of my biggest gripes with piloting a mech. If it actually feels good to attack with melee then that's just an added bonus to me.
Also dear god the seamless transition from melee to backing out into ranged to charging in with a rocket and cancelling a boost to melee from the side is so sick looking. I can't wait to play it.

Has anyone seen the pikmin 4 stuff? Its weird to me. Im a hardcore pikmin fan, so I'll probably buy it on launch anyway but... I dont like the ideas of the new pikmin, part of the appeal was the hard sci-fi nature of the world and the concept of them is too wacky, and it's not like Pokemon either, they havent really run out of botanical/eusocial things to do with the species. Feels like they went with kid appeal over spec evo.

>>110045 The original plot was the your spaceship crashes on an unknown planet and you have raise up an army of these little pikmin guys to find the parts to your spaceship before you run out of air and die. It's a mix of resource/time management, puzzle solving, and micro-managing combat against bigger creatures.

https://www.youtube.com/live/Vvah-HfhkYc?feature=share&t=7570 Exilecon occured over the past couple days and it was absolutely insane just how refined the systems of PoE 2 seem to be. The combat has been fine tuned to make sure that melee has more maneuverability such that it can actually be a more suitable alternative to range, they have a dodge button with no cooldown that can allow you to cancel casts if you're in a pinch, and just everything about the new skill system is wonderful.
https://www.youtube.com/live/Vvah-HfhkYc?feature=share&t=9589 Potentially one of the most epic showcases in the event was the way in which you dual-spec weapons. Not only can you allocate certain skills to be used by your first/second weapon exclusively, but the weapon slots even have their own passive points that can be swapped between whenever you switch weapons. It's really shaping to be the pinnacle of ARPGs and the culmination of all the lessons learned over the last 20+ years of ARPGs. It makes Diablo 4 a muddy puddle on the gold-paved road leading up to its release. With this, Baldur's Gate 3, and Hollow Knight the future of gaming seems to be almost entirely back within the hands of gamers instead of shithead business major execs that run AAA companies.
As a side, in addition to all the amazing improvements in PoE 2 they're not even trying to be greedy with it. All the microtransactions you've purchased in the original will be available to use in both games if they're not hyper-specific to the workings of only one of them. Meaning that all stash tabs carry over. With that in mind I also upgraded the /qa/ guild's stash space, if anyone wants to play next league with it I'll be on and ready to invite anyone.

>>111801 On the topic of the next league for PoE, it seems pretty settled that we'll be playing on ruthless. So if anyone wants to try that mode out this season should be a great time to do so. Also if anyone wants to play or get started in PoE in general it should be a fun time as well. We have at least 4 people in the /qa/ guild that are fair enough at the game that we can somewhat guide along people that aren't as knowledgeable, and we'll all probably be contributing whatever to the guild chests such that gearing should be a bit easier for those that may have a rough time once they get to mapping (although I'm not sure how fast we'll get to mapping in Ruthless since it'll be my first time playing the mode as well). And if /qa/ friends with no guild just want a nice guild with good stash space to put their stuff in we'll be open to inviting them as well, as I made sure beforehand that we'll have a
sizeable amount of it.
Also the new league starts on the 18th of August so there's some time to read up on it or do whatever you want in the meantime (like play Baldur's Gate 3) before it comes out and we play.

Ahh, at last I understand. I had been seeing images and drawings of this Plum girl (far right in image) in speedrunning threads and now I can see why. She's a character for a 2D sidescroller indie game called Chenso Club advertised during ESA and I guess she was very well received and she even has her own twitch emote tied to it. I'm kind of curious how this happened and how it's tied to ESA. Was it advertised during Winter ESA and then this time for Summer ESA there was a Plum emote ready? I'm not sure.
The designs are pretty bland and generic indie fare, but perhaps by accident they made a smiling witch girl and she easily rose above the typical ambiguously brown and badass archetypes that make up the rest of the cast. Anyway, here's an ad playing during ESA and she has her own catchy song while no other character is acknowledged. It would be nice to imagine more Western indie developers learning from this and actually making cute characters, but that seems unlikely.
https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1881982938?t=11h7m49s The game looks kinda fun, but I'm not sure I'll ever play it.

I started playing Library Of Ruina after finishing Lobotomy Corp. The game is insanely hard for me because it uses deck building as a core mechanic. Its because of this the fights feel extremely satisfying, but I feel mentally exhausted after certain fights. I still wish it were a VN though because I have to keep stopping and the story and world building is really amazing to me. Also like someone pointed out the soundtrack is amazing and gives certain scenes so much emotion.

there is an Akiba's Trip anime, i think it's really good, but it's not connected to the games at all outside of a handful of references. i'd say it's worth a watch.

Anonymous 09/05/23 (Tue) 16:47:31 No. 113505
>>113504 I think that the Japanese don't have the same view on race that we do and so most of the time when they are designing characters they aren't actually giving thought to things like that.
And furthering this is the fact that the Japanese themselves have a lot of different skin tones, well even white people do really, Nemona could easily be white, though that probably was not factored into the design either.

Last time it was 50% off, but this time it's 60% off and I bought the Miku Diva game that got a PC port.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1761390/Hatsune_Miku_Project_DIVA_Mega_Mix/ Sadly I've heard there's no fun interaction stuff in their rooms like previous games, but at least people have been modding stuff into it like songs and stuff. It uses denuvo so there's no way to pirate it. This is the last real Miku rhythm game to me since they now exist as gacha on smartphones. Miku fitness on switch looks fun, though.

Current game I've been playing is Lobotomy Corp. It's fun and has a nice difficulty curve to it, but I really wish managing agents was better. You have to tab through different departments for different agents, and you can't simply see your entire roster at a glance which makes it a pain to see the health of all of your agents since their health bars overlap on the map. It's exacerbated when you have dozens of little retards roaming around and you also have to pay close attention to each because they can just instantly die if you assign them to do something at the wrong time (fucking fairies).
For a block game, I've been playing Vintage Story on and off since it got introduced to me through a game night thread. Compared to Minecraft it's got a lot more detail and care put into it, and the actual building of things blows Minecraft out of the water with chiseling being a feature, but there's really only one "boss" so to speak and one dangerous dungeon like area currently. It's definitely lacking in terms of late game stuff, and the "hardcore realism" progression of things might be a turnoff for some (e.g. you knock slag off iron blooms to make ingots and steel is made through a multi-step cementation process). The QOL is top notch and you can open multiple chests/containers at once which is great. No Touhou little maid equivalent mod unfortunately.
>>124248 Medieval 2 is always a good fallback, and last great Total War game in my opinion. Sure there's Shogun 2 which is good in its own right, but it just lacks the sheer diversity as all the clans share the same unit roster; it doesn't have that kind of replayability. Also it's very moddable which cannot be said for any of the new Total War games.
Anonymous 05/16/24 (Thu) 08:03:50 No. 124506 >>124507
>>124505 As far as the battles and RTS play goes Shogun 2 is really good, and older TW games let you move units without generals. I don't like the campaign as much since it's all too samey after one or two playthroughs. The clans are functionally identical save for a unit or two and everyone has the same goal of taking Kyoto and becoming Shogun. Whereas in Medieval 2, England plays very different to Milan in both goals—take northern Europe and succeed in crusades vs take the Mediterranean and become the new Roman empire—and unit roster—knights, cavalry, and longbows vs militia, crossbows, and lots of guns.
If as you said, Shogun had more Asian units to fill out rosters it would be a lot better, maybe with Chinese and Korean pseudo-factions who you can trade with that have one or two cities at the very edge of the map over the sea, but really I think it's greatest strength and greatest weakness is its narrow scope. The Sengoku period is a really cool period in Japanese history and good grounds for a Total War game, but because it's limited in scope it suffers due to the aforementioned homogeneity. If we had a Medieval/Rome style Total War game where it spread across Japan, China, Korea, and bits of southeast Asia like the others do for Europe/North Africa/West Asia, it could be great. It would have diversity of cultures and units, and a big playground to take part in if you want to be a map painter and conquer everyone.
Either way it's something we can only fantasize about because Total War games have become hero shittery, Warhammer, and stores to sell more DLC.

>>124507 >it's limited in scope Poor wording on my part. I meant for what we have in Shogun 2. Cool period, but it's only Japan sans Hokkaido. Korea technically was on the map because it had to physically be there, but no gameplay significance. It's also worth noting the first Shogun game did have a Mongol invasions scenario where it's a "what if they didn't all die in a storm" alternate history deal. It was a game focused on it's premise and namesake, as such there was no room for anything else.
In looking around I found the Morning Sun mod which basically adds what I think the game needed and goes over exactly what you said here with the Imjin war and adds room for the Ming Dynasty alongside other peripheries like Mongolia and Tibet. It's ambitious and pushes the engine, mainland Asia doesn't have much terrain detail the game cant render settlements and trees far away at the edges of the map due to bugs.

You should never play OJ to win because it's an exercise in frustration. Treat it as a bonus because otherwise your plans will get unraveled and you may get angry when something cheap happens. The game is built to support epic comebacks will frustrate you to no end if you take it seriously. Kind of like Mario Kart, but to a far greater extreme.

Started playing Environmental Station Alpha recently, and got to the first ending and a bit of post-game. It's a small indie Metroid"vania", much more Metroid than Castlevania. The graphics in it are a bit of a adaption curve since they're quick pixel-y and blocky, but I was able to get over that just fine since the gameplay itself is great fun.
Anonymous 05/24/24 (Fri) 02:49:58 No. 124853 >>124855 >>125002
>>124752 So this is pretty cool. I've been doing the postgame for a bit now and the game really shifts from a typical Metroid-like to a more mystery puzzle solving game. In the station there's a terminal which you'll find that initially (assuming you haven't found any yet) has nothing on it, but as you collect data diskettes scattered across the world it'll fill up with artwork of various zones or other pics. Many of these diskettes are hidden behind secret walls or switches you need to at first be vigilant in taking note of the area to find, but are easy enough to not be impossible if you just look for them and are perceptive of oddities in the areas. Once you find all the diskettes there's a special room that you may notice also keeps track of them that leads to one of the final and also most important upgrade in the game that opens up movement a ton and lets you access any area fairly easily. One important upgrade you may miss early on if you're not insane like me is
below a sea of acid in the earlier section that has no bottom that you can swim under to find a rough map that gives a rough idea of where sections are. It also allows you to access new locations/areas that you previously couldn't out in the main world. Including a couple very important areas that are crucial for achieving the 'true' ending. One's a platforming challenge that the game really fucking loves sending you to over and over again that's a bitch of a platforming section which instakills you if you touch any of its spikes and leads to a special place with another ending. To initially access this you'll find it kills you a lot if you try reaching it, but you need to go into your status menu and use the up/down arrows to disable specific upgrades that is making access to the challenge impossible. From now on you'll want to keep this in mind because there's a fair bit of times in the postgame that you'll need to be switching up what upgrades you have active or not (especially in one far later room where something changes based on what you've activated). The other's a station that you may have found the teleporter to before during the main game but were unable to access because getting to it requires you have that final upgrade. It's got some puzzles in it of its own but are fairly simple to figure out compared to others, some mechanics that require you read to figure out why you're dying, and a boss that is a real pain in the ass and is also required for the true ending.
Aside from those two areas there's also those newly accessible locations you couldn't reach before in the main game I alluded to before. The most important of which is a platform that houses this Eagle that tells you the most important line for the postgame, I'll spoil it a bit since it's crucial towards progressing anything but all the aliens speak in a certain cypher. This cypher is also present elsewhere in the game too, especially as you get further into it.
The Eagle tells you to LEARN THEIR LANGUAGE WELL of the friendly creatures you'll find across the station and then right afterwards says the exact same thing in alien cypher. If you compare the two lines and write down these substitutions, you can then use them to decode other text of similar nature and then figure out the other letters by filling in the blanks where they appear. VERY IMPORTANT: Make sure you write down every single message of this coded text because most all of them tell you of the locations of some sort of key or activation switch you need to find and the hints can be somewhat cryptic and sometimes the solution non-euclidean. It may also be a good idea just to keep track of in another sheet/note the logs you come across in the main story too so that if something is referenced in the codes you'll find a reference to it from before as well.
A good tip to keep in mind if you're stuck, especially on the pillars section, is that there's no empty spots in the main station. If you see a spot you haven't been to within the main station that's enveloped by other areas and you can't clearly see there's nothing there (like when going through a tube across stations) then there's a 100% chance that area has something in it you're not yet privy to. Also make sure to note all weirdly distinct rooms you come across, or at least their map coordinates, like 02,19 or 21,21. These are the area codes of the station that you'll see on your map whenever you open it up and correspond to the X,Y coordinates of each and make it easier to find your way back to wherever you mark down since the whole map is a grid. These markings you make may be important for the final puzzle that has you going back to some of these notable spots to perform a specific action, which is the one I'm on now and I really wish I'd had this idea before since I've just been backtracking and going around everywhere to try and find where I remember specific areas being since I know mostly what these sign location hints are referring to but not where exactly they were.
With the addition of all this intricate puzzle solving the game easily jumps up to a 9.5/10 I highly recommend to anyone that likes a game which challenges their brain.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/2914150/Yunyun_Syndrome_Rhythm_Psychosis/ It's a rhythm game where you play as an anonymous poster and the character makes bad posts as you play along to old denpa songs and I'm a bit surprised that they got some good ones. (just watch this video attached the post). The presentation made it sound like it would potentially be "controversial" with the girl you're playing as spreading conspiracy theories and other typical anonymous chicanery associated with certain undesirables in anonymous communities.

>>126363 >The artwork in the game is quite nice for an indie studio, Blasphemous is probably better and so is Hollow Knight, but it's on the nicer end Blasphemous is a bit better, yes, but that's a very high bar since it has some of the best spritework ever along with some SNK, Capcom and ArcSys titles. Indie games with intricate spritework are an extreme rarity. Most are low effort stuff like Undertale or ESA (sorry, but that's true, it looks like a NES game). You should definitely not treat it as a commodity.
>Hollow Knight I'm not a big fan of Hollow Knight's artstyle. It's too simplistic and the environments look kinda samey in my opinion. They have a nice variety in terms of gameplay/exploration and stuff, but they are visually similar to each other. Can't really compare it to sprites either. I wish it had more weapons besides just the nail as well.
>On the world design however, I do have some things to touch on. This is probably the weakest aspect of the game Yeah, the map is small, it doesn't have many secrets and it's pretty straightforward. I was not a big fan of the time wasting 'puzzles' either. The Metroidvania progression however, was handled pretty well unlike the first Blasphemous which people criticize a lot for not really following that formula. I think it's because they wanted it to be kinda like Dark Souls where you can go to a lot of different places at the beginning though, but Blasphemous 2 does 'fix' that and it has a more classic Metroidvania-style progression. People who compare Hollow Knight to Souls need to play Blasphemous since it's way more obviously inspired by it than HK. It's Catholic Dark Souls set in Spain basically (the devs are Spanish).

Only really hard one was the one platform you needed to jump on 50 times to make fall because there's no hint for it or indication of what you need to do and you just need to search it up.
The Dark Souls sorta world you describe of Blasphemous sounds nice. I like having a more open exploration that allows me to approach the game in a variety of ways from the start, and I wouldn't say that Hollow Knight is far off from that approach itself. I've nearly platinum'd it and have beaten it so many times I can say that without a doubt it's the most interconnected and flexible world of any metroidvania I've played. Unless what you mean for "classic" metroidvania isn't the world being somewhat more linear in nature and refers to something else.

I'm probably going to play it when the update launches, but I don't know if I will play with Kissu or not. I had a lot of problems with my connection last time, it's probably something to do with the fact that I am Australian. I'm not sure if it's an issue that Palworlds can fix or has fixed.

>>129162 Oh, that sucks. It shouldn't be something that requires that speedy of a connection since there's generally little interaction with other players. Any movement based ability like charging was absolutely horrible and I think anyone other than the host had that.
It seems like there's generally been stability/improvement patches for servers and stuff now and then so it
might be better, but I can't say for sure. The main draw in multiplayer was seeing the other bases, Palworld's basic gameplay doesn't really favor playing together unfortunately. Well, maybe that "raid boss" thing does.

>>129523 Unless you were playing with money on the line there's no reason to get mad at a tourney.
Also if you're getting frustrated with jong then you should stop focusing on trying to rank up so bad. I got close to master a couple of months ago but I ended up on a kuso losing streak and got demoted back to e2. I notice I play worse when I'm tilted and there are some days where it feels like the flow just isn't there. So now I try to play a game a day and if I lose I call it there. This of course means ranking up will take forever, but there's no rush and I feel much more enjoyment out of mahjong as a hobby.
In other words, take it easy.

e3 - t9 here you swap your 2p pair for a 7m pair
e4 - t6 no reason to keep the 6p, and you got pushing by tsumoing a ryanmen, good riichi though just haps

East is really difficult to play, but if you can roll people who are not good at it you can get lots of points.
But when everyone is good, losing a hand or not winning a hand results in you needing to play more aggressively which compounds bad luck. So you play more defensive until the game deals you great hands by a bad RNG seed.
