I sometimes watch an anime or read a manga about MMO video games of some sort and it has made me interested in the concept. Obviously as NEETs we should have advantages that other players wouldn't have that come from being able to spend a lot of time playing. I've never really played any multiplayer games, and when I did, I never interacted with anyone in them, just playing them like single player games. I wonder if MMOs could be a decent substitute for actual human interaction and companionship. Does anyone have any experience with these? What do you think about them? Worth playing for a wizard?

anything is better than working for goldshekelstein. MMORPGs is for people who have a slave mentality and love to trick their brains into thinking that they are working and accomplishing something great, what's more funny is that the userbase is mostly wagies, so after long hours of work, they cope by being in some fantasy scenario doing mindless chores and quests.

Funny you should mention .hack. I just decided I would start watching the TV series. I'm not sure I'm gonna make it though. I'm part way through episode 2 but damn it is shit so far. Feels like the producer took too much acid or something. This might be a good thing to try before I get into an actual mmorpg.

Dark Souls 1-3, Bloodbourne, Sekiro, Elden Ring, and the last 3 Amoured Core games a pretty much easily accesible for anyone who hasn't touched any of them. Elden Ring has the same skill ramp but it comes slower due to the less linear nature of ER.

 No.61068

>>61065
ER is easiest and by far the best. If you dont want much challenge you can just over-level yourself by doing other content first.
The difficulty is overstated if you played old games. It's only difficult if you compare to casualised modern games

I watched about 6 hours of livestreams of this game from new players and those who are top rank and in-the-know with 'the meta'. Every second of it looked the exact same. It plays like freaking Cookie Clicker. Our average racing game offers more environmental differences, challenges, and new gameplay elements than HellDivers II

 No.61415

>>61414
what exactly is this meta? from my experience this is what i use

laser gun
smg pistol
50% survive death medium armor
laser backback drone strategem
autocannon sentry strategem
rocket sentry strategem
railcannon weapon strategem

no one really uses anything i do aside from the lazer drone backpack, because it's completely busted and you'd be dumb to not use it. you can run away completely disengaged from combat and still be killing things, do terminal stuff/activate hellbomb and have it guard you from little guys. kill missions are different and everyone just brings turrets and mortars usually which is really the only sensible way to beat those

I bought the Umihara Kawase trilogy on steam, playing the first game, the grappling hook mechanic is kinda weird, but it's great once you get used to it. I like the sprites but the backgrounds are so ugly

 No.61440

I love this series. I've played every game. It's funny, I don't mind the gameplay that much. I do enjoy it but what makes this game endearing to me is the atmosphere and music. It's interesting how the relaxed environment contrasts with the brutal difficulty sometimes, there are incredibly challenging levels in all of the games. The first one you're playing now is one of my favorites. The 3D ones and the newest entry Umihara Kawase Fresh lost a little bit of the magic imo but I still had a lot of fun with them. I hope you're enjoying it!

I quite like the pixelated photos they use for the backgrounds, maybe it's an acquired taste or something. I remember finding it a rather odd artistic decision but grew to like it.

Yeah that pretty much sums it up. I played it until I fully upgraded my house and then I lost all interest. I should probably delete it because I have to admit to myself I don't care enough about the story or the gameplay to finish it.

I have played on and off for a long time but I'm too much of an autist to even fathom the idea of grouping with others for certain content such as dungeons and raids. It makes me far too anxious. I just play solo for the most part.

Legends arceus was the only mainline pokemon game I played since sun and moon, and it was alot of fun. I'm excited for this too.
It's cool that they're revisiting older generations and doing new stuff with them outside of just remakes (Reminds me that people are still asking for gen 5 remakes for some reason, as if those games even need to be remade). And Kalos is definitely a region that deserves to be explored more.

Still no new PMD game, though. That's disappointing.

MMO's will NEVER be good again. If you don't enjoy the trash that is popular now (Modern WoW, FFXIV) then you're not the target audience for them anymore.

Dragon's Dogma 2
Eiyuden Chronicle: Hundred Heroes

Ghosts of Tsushima PC port
Selaco
Elin
Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance
Super Monkey Ball: Banana Rumble
Skald: Against the Black Priory
Visions of Mana

What games define you? What are the games that left an impact on you, that you'll never forget? It honestly didn't take me long to figure it out for myself. An honorable mention and 10th would be MGSV for me as well.

Not him but I enjoyed those games as a kid largely just because it was "platforming, but you can fly"… I was a sucker for that. There's a flying power up in mario galaxy that I loved even though you barely get to use it. I guess if you can just fly everywhere it defeats the purpose of platforming but eh it's fun.

Neverwinter Nights has just about infinite content considering how long it's been out. There are a ton of user-made campaigns and servers for that game. The servers often called "persostemt worlds" or PWs are basically small MMORPGs. I played a mod based on an original adventure by Gary Gygax "The Keep on the Borderlands", which I think is pretty fun for giving a new character a test run. Also the character building is very in-deprh since it's based on 3e rules.
