what game should I play? I've never played a MH? also is hunting horn good, it'sa weapon I really want to try

>>62287
My friend played through monster hunter world with the hunting horn.
Though I assume it's more of a group play weapon.
I'm trying to get into world again, but it's probably the most boring of the recent ones from what I have heard.

yea you're gonna wanna avoid wilds.
it's so easy i only fainted 3 times maybe 2 and made it to HR 50 or something before i quit.
it's below a phone game mechanically it's for succubi or something.
it's also like 10% of the content of freedom unite or 4u which should be evident since i got hr 50 in like 3 days it just came out lol.
also the ugly npc's talk literally nonstop like they never stop talking they interrupt your gameplay to talk. and do that RDR thing where they make you get on a mount and slowly walk somewhere so they can talk at you. mh fell for the cinematic movie game psyop

>>62287
freedom unite and 4u are the only ones worth playing, world i know a japanese guy who bought it as a joke and just laughed at the ugly wire bug handhold trash then returned it to the store.

I would risk saying that Paradox games due to their nature have a lot of replayability potential

>>62292
which one are your favorites? i would love to see you rank the ones you played from least favorite to most favorite.

>>62294
>from least favorite to most favorite from ones I played
>Europa Universalis
I just hate the mana as a concept, I find the events to be absurd and I only play it when I play a megacampaign
>Imperator:Rome
it has fine mechanics with the exeption of families and family holdings, but it is pretty much impossible to play tall. Also, the AI Rome always does the worst bordergore- I've never seen them conquer mainland Carthage (Or any medium-large southern state) but they often conquer beyond Rhine and Danube
>Hearts or Iron IV
love the production and division autism. Fighting is ok. I could even stomach national focuses, but the problem is boredom during peacetime. I know this is a war game, but there is almost literally nothing to do before war starts but wait. Also, the fact that 1/4 of the mechanics is tied to DLCs is scummy
>Darkest Hour
iirc correctly it is modified version of Hoi2. It is the definition of simple but fun. It as more tech (up to 1960s) than Hoi4. Same probelm with peacetime. Fewer provinces means that that it feels too much like a boardgame than a simulation.
>Crusader Kings 2
I think I'm the most familiar with this one, as I have over 600 hours in and still haven't played 10% of all content. The main problems are too much time (almost 700 years long campaign with earliest start) and all-or-nothing type of gameplay. Both of those things mean thta when you accomplish your goals you just wait till the end date, as playing suboptimal means losing all progress to some AI character, and they run player kingdoms to the ground. I also think that mechanics fail to represnt the period faithfully, especially earlier dates.
>Victoria II
When it comes to the gameplay, I like the idea that a lot of things are controlled indirectly, in contrast to previous games. It is closest to a "simulation" a paradox game have come to. Time period is both good and bad- industrialization is fun, but the political landscape means Europe looks the same every game unless something crazy happens like Bavaria becoming a Great Power. I would also change some aspects of RGOs and goods, as the way it is handled in the game Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Can someone recommend me some nice minecraft servers to play? I have pirated version (PollyMC like anon from here recommended)

>>62180
Creative mode is like playing with Legos. Survival mode is nice because you try to survive, explore and you never know what will happen. It's a nice feeling of freedom.

>>62180
it's strategy. following step by step every needed requirement without dying until kiling the dragon or the wither. It's planning but also being patient…

Quite annoying quests. Even more patience is needed after the updates, but mods help quite a bit. If mods were professionally taken care of by Mojang, they could outclass every other single genre of game: it can imitate any.

I can barely find any lapis lazuli. They are rarer than diamonds.

>>62281
aahhh, yeah. That worst than stupid update…

>>62278
Pikanetwork, Jartexnetwork, you might have fun on UltimisMC

>>62267
oh ok

Issue number 9 out now!

>>62272
nice

>>61956
I think I have gamer burnout

>>61983
I tried playing it but it seemed a bit too hollywood for my liking. Original SH2 had way more unique soul. It is the main problem with remakes. They become soulless or at least get a different one.

Finished playing through Mouthwashing.

Was a lot more linear then I was expecting.
It was more a vehicle for the story then a game imo.
On the one had I feel like I probably missed a lot because there are a fuck ton of hidden achievements somehow, but on the other hand I don't really feel the urge to play it again.

Thank God I waited until Robocop Rogue City was less than a tenner, though even that was a bit too pricey for an incredibly bog-standard fps with handful of maps intersped with a few hub-maps and a couple of novel gimmicks like the ricochet shot and robocop marking enemies like in the film. The AI is retarded, enemies stand out in the open while you blast them and does not improve as you go through the game, so it's basically like a shooting gallery.

When you're not shooting people you're walking on foot to talk to people and issue parking tickets with tedious A-to-B sidequests.

The story was like an episode of a robocop cartoon, just constant referencing of the original two robocops, ridiculously blunt "satire" that makes you appreciate how well the over-the-top satire was done in the original film, cheap voice acting with many of the npcs voiced by a handful of people. Peter Weller gives the appropriate amount of effort for this.

It's not a bad game, just a low-budget one with a license. Modern day "gamers" are retards giving this 8s and 9s are out of their mind, this game is 5/10 which is an okay score because scores don't start at 7/10. If this game came out 10-15 years, it would warrant a higher score.

>>62207
I agree with you on the rating inflation thing.
It's one of the reasons I prefer a "out of 5" scale for ratings with effort, and simple thumbs up thumbs down for low effort normies.

Because of gaming media being payed to inflate reviews, for most sites and review aggregators 7 is actually average and anything 5 and below is differing degrees of garbage.
So they functionally already have a 5 point scale.

Then again I fully admit I am very bias because I grew up watching X-Play as my primary source of game reviews during my formative years. They used a "out of 5" scale.

Played through one of the endings of MiSide

It's more feels than thrills for me.
For a horror game, besides a few jumpscares, most of the "horror" was just really sad. Like emotionally sad, not sad as in I was disappointed.
It's really good, but as with most of these types of games, I REALLY wish the movement speed was faster or I could run all the time instead of just scripted segments, because slow walk speed is and will always be something that irritates me.

It's frankly unbelievable that just 2 dudes pulled this game off. It's really well done, well polished, and unlike most horror games I have played, I didn't run into a single unintented glitch or bug meaning it's really well polished.

Oh, and for those wondering if it has any "adult content", the answer is no. Which actually relates to the subtext of certain aspects of the game as well as the themes in the plot.

Now to play it two more times to see the other endings and unlock more stuff.

I have no idea what your are talking about.
The silent hill games are old as fuck and so is the vast majority of the fan base.
It also doesn't seem to particularly attract trannies, compared to a game like Undertale or Celeste.

I think you are just trying to be inflammatory for attention.

>>61904
iirc it was a mercy kill because she was terminally ill, but he still felt remorse afterwards

I've only played the room but I stopped playing after encountering those dogs with the suckers

>>62274
was silent hill scary?

All the expansions cost premium currency. They might bundle some in the free package (I thought the barebones game was already free so I would expect them to), but they definitely won't give you the newest content for free. I think subscription is only $5/mo and you get a small stipend of the currency every month. Another bad thing for F2P is that you have storage caps on all materials. I don't know how harsh they are, but I presume they're very limiting.

Little tip: search for steam on google and click on news, there is always a new about a game being given away for free

New game from the dev of Baba is You is free to claim until Wednesday

https://hempuli.itch.io/mobile-suit-baba

It's a hybrid of Baba and Into the Breach. Played about 10 levels and it's pretty fun so far

>>53882
Why not? Marvel Rivals is F2P and fun.

>>62271
F2P doesn't count and isn't what this thread is about.

VF5 released on steam yesterday.
Been playing it since release.


While I greatly missed proper VF action, and appreciate finally having decent online play on PC, I am still kinda disapointed.
The single player modes are gone beside arcade and practice, meanwhile it's already a wait to find matches and pretty limited numbers of people online, both in ranked and in rooms.
Meaning that it likely won't be very long before the online mode is mostly dead exept for wantabe pros.

When a fighting game has a decent single player mode I can still play it for years even when the online is mostly dead.
Without a decent single player it's only a mater of time until the game is dead.

I hope that they include a robust single player mode to vf6 when it comes out.

>>62213
Full price or wait till discount?

>>62236
If you aren't already a vf super fan I would highly recommend just waiting until vf6 comes out.

The steam version is pretty stripped down for online and tournament play.
It quite literally is the E-sports version of the game.
So if you aren't already good at the game and ready to sweat hard with people who have a decade of experience, you are in for a bad time.

It doesn't have the expanded practice modes or single player to really get good at the game. If you aren't already experienced you are just going to constantly get bodied in the online modes until you get frustrated and quit.

retrokill someone?

I have made a small town in sim city 3000 using smallest map size. I like sim city 4 but I go back to sc3k from time to time

I still play 1.16, I also have 1.19 but i don't like the new map generation so much and copper is pointless

I also replaced and expanded all of the music with stuff like fearofdark and xyce, I like the old soundtrack but it gets repetitive

>>62250
My nigga have you never listened to any of the original music or are you just that fucking dense.
