Hello everyone,

I recently started playing the Steins Gate VN, has been an enjoyable mean while, while searching for something related to the series I found out about the reboot. It seems the developers plan to copyright strike anyone who uploads or streams the game.

How do you feel about that

I'm hijacking this thread to share the post credits scene. People are saying this voice is shun from occultic;nine, who's supposed to be one of the main characters in the upcoming steins;???.
I barely remember occultic;nine though, so I don't really know what that means

been playing darksouls for a while and took the mage, I can kind of get the magic weapon ability. But having gems that reinforce your weapon to boost int damage? I never understood that when str and regular reinforcments would do the same. especially when magic weapon is now blocked from being used on the int reinforced weapon.

to me, magic in souls games in like magic in elder scrolls: it's there for flavour, but there are objectively better builds

I've only ever played through Dark Souls once. I've seen people online claim that magic is really good, but I played a Strength/Faith character so I have no idea personally.

>>63619
Not the OP, but assume you mean Skyrim specifically? I don't have much experience in TES1, but in 2, 3, and 4, magic is very powerful and basically becomes god-powers at high levels with enchantments.

I think there is just something “magical” about old games, like someone’s great ideas put in to the limitations of a early 2000s game engine that was handcrafted by a passionate nerd. I think limitations and those unique oversights/bugs were really what spawned great games.

These days it’s just like every single game is extremely high fidelity. We have more than enough resources to throw at anything now, there are almost no limitations, things are homogenized, most everything is running in Unreal or Unity engine.

It feels almost like the frontier of gaming is over, all that’s left is businessmen producing calculated slop over and over again, sequels on sequels. Devs these days aren’t building their dreams, they’re just building a paycheck.

What do you think? Was old really better or is it nostalgia

IMO, a lot of games of GameSpy era *that has been hackd to circumvent the GameSpy ties* are good and probably still active communities (hacking such games takes skill mind you)

same story with still mentionable old games like


* Age of Empires II
* Heroes of Might and Magic III
* Kosmicheskiye Reindzheri (e.g. Space Rangers)
* i dunno, Star Control II ?
* XCOM !!!
* Interstate '76 Nitro Pack counts, I suppose

I'm not sure I can call them "better" really… I mean, look at how much money and production values the industry has nowadays. I do subjectively tend to like them more though, mainly because of the hardware limitations forcing titles to be shorter and less bloated, often focusing on a difficult couple of hours without saving, or little saving, and overall simple 100% requirements. Nowadays my time to play is small, and when it comes I often don't have the energy, focusing on something short and sweet, simple loops where it's all about replaying the same levels until I get good enough at them to finish the whole thing in a sitting…

It's ideal for me.

The truth is that devs actually used to play the games they made.
It's like the early YouTube years, when people used to make videos just got the sake of it.
You do feel the difference.

I've been playing some 2015 games that I had to stop playing because of a game-breaking-bug that literally keeps me from advancing. When developers had to release on physical media there was a higher incentive to polish and make sure the game ran properly. Now it feels developers hardly play their own games anymore.

This is a good recommendation. I played it and read the manga and I would recommend it a lot. I would recommend it almost enough even to samefag in order to recommend it twice.

In this thread, ask other wizards for game recommendations.

I'm starting a new thread to look for wizards who played lots of city building games. I'm looking to get immersed in one of those games and I mean I want to completely forget this world exists. I don't have a preference for theme, though I would prefer not to play anything medieval. However if you played ton of these games and the one you think it's the best happens to be medieval themed I don't mind, let me know. Thanks in advance.

Any wizards playing Dwarf Fortress? In spite of being an unofficial /wiz/ game (being on at least three banners) I haven't seen it being mentioned here.
Do you play Legacy or Steam version?
Since when?
Do you prefer to play Fortress or Adventure?
Do you have one main world you play, or do you just make a new one after being bored with your current fort?

Being in control of a whole colony stresses me. I'm ashamed of my failure.

It's been many years since I played. The last big update I remember is the addition of taverns, guilds and music instruments.

Started playing it recently after it was on sale. Seems cool. Steam version, only fortress so far. Still trying to figure things out. At some point I had wild boars appear in my fort, which started fighting with the dogs there, causing there to be blood and boar corpses all over. Then the corpses started to decay and leak miasma (because I didn't know how to designate a trash area for corpses) which made everyone sick and vomit everywhere in addition to the blood and corpses. Seems like a game I can sink a lot of hours into, lots of depth and weird little niche mechanics you will only find by accident.

in 2009 DF was significantly responsible for me having to repeat one course for my final year of study, and the only game I have ever played 28 hours without interruption.

Sadly that world lost compatibility several updates ago and I lost the attachment to the game I once had.

Fun :tm: things i've done:

100 z layer tower built up from a 30z level map wide aquifer
Tropical island using a water elevator to cap off a volcano and build out stilted houses
Polar Bear based economy in the frozen biome with no stone

Factorio took over that particular brain bee for me, but DF was fun to be in for a long long time.

 No.63622

interesting repplies. For me DF was boring from the moment I found out that you could just make a bridge and it would stop literally every enemy. theres no challenge whatsoever, buring dwarfs manually is annoying, the building and designing a base is boring and ugly, you can make perpetuum mobile from the watermills or whatever. So I dont like it.

I wonder how well does the new Hitman games hold up. I grewn impatient for stealth while getting older and never went back for them. I have only played the older hitman games and only finished the very first one.

 No.63616

>>63614
The map and mission design in the World of Assassination trilogy is a lot better than the older games, but the trade-off is that Instinct and Opportunities/Mission Stories hold your hand way too much. You can certainly ignore Opportunities (and you pretty much have to if you want to SASO each mission), but the game is designed around Instinct as otherwise you will constantly walk into guards and enforcers that you have no way of pre-empting otherwise.
I also miss being able to customise weapons and upgrade gear, the unlock system in WoA doesn't scratch the same itch.
One minor thing that annoys me about WoA is that if you're disguised as a guard, other guards won't notice that you're carrying the wrong weapon. They used to in Blood Money.

I want to play neotokyo° but no one plays it…there's this steam group that organize parties every weekends and gather together to play the game. I also want to do the same but with my fellow wizzies: I want to create a group on steam and schedule so american wizzies and europeans wizzies and aussies wizzies play all together, so we could all play together. I was thinking of sunday, no wizzies work on sunday

what do you think of my idea? I think it's a good idea

Seek out the Active NEOTOKYO Players Steam group. It may be of use to you.

Games may go on on Fridays, but no promises. The game can at least be played on default and High settings assuming a Windows machine. Linux distros depend, but should be fine.
