What game would you play, if you were stuck in a Groundhog Day?

Stein's gate?

bruh wtf does that even mean?
boomer really thought everyone has seen this old ass movie kek

>>713438754 (OP)
I'd get into Dwarf Fortress

I'm currently playing through FF7, so that.

>>713439039
Damn.

How is it? Did you get past the first thirty minutes?

>>713438754 (OP)
How many women did he rape once he realized what was happening?

>>713438754 (OP)
the game of brutal rape

Fortnite: Battle Royale

rape

>>713439153
Not many, because when he realied it he was already in the final loops. About to die.

>>713439153
all of them

>>713438754 (OP)
>play vidya during a groundhog day loop
>can't save progress because everything resets at the end of the day
Age of Empires 2, or maybe Galactic Battlegrounds. RTSs with skirmishes in general are probably the way to go, or arena FPSs. Maybe Quake Live or something.

>>713439153
Is it morally wrong to rape in a groundhog day situation?

>>713438754 (OP)
Probably some roguelite or something because I'm assuming any progress would get reset at the end of the day.

>>713438754 (OP)
I'd pick up Fortnite streaming and see how many viewers I can get in 24 hours on a fresh channel.

>>713439413
You know he spent at least 15 years in that time loop, right? He learned 2 languages and became a master of the piano.

The same one over and over again.

and this movie? kinda time travel

>>713439848
I don't remember shit about this movie anymore.

>>713440225
I honestly only remember it cause I rewatched it like 3-5 months ago and remember specifically paying attention to it. But he was in there for a LONG time.

I'm currently playing through FF7, so that.

It would need to be one you can finish in a day, since your save would reset at the end of the day.

>>713440712
Outer Wilds, the legit way

>>713438754 (OP)
I'd just go on a rape spree

>>713438754 (OP)

Probably just any competitive online game because I would still get different games despite the day being the same and I would continue to improve despite the day being the same.

>>713438754 (OP)
Sonic Mania

See, I posted the shit 2D Sonic but I don't have faith anyone would catch it so I explain the joke. Lol

>>713438754 (OP)
>Groundhog Day
I would have regular rape days
Regular murdee days
Regular kidnap days
And even regular nuclear days, where I achieve some massive weapon of destruction and kill everything on site.

>>713438754 (OP)
just go to the casino no video games for me

>>713439848
learning 2 languages is feasible in a couple of months, the piano he just needed to learn enough to impress the townsfolk

>>713446029
I don’t think I could do that because I’d think “what if the loop stops after I do this?”
The loop stopped because he did insane good. But what if doing insane bad ends it too?

>>713441265
>>713439153
There's a problem with the rape theory. Is that the loop was caused by a witch to teach him a lesson. The idea might have been scrapped but it's the only explanation provided to us for the plot of this movie.

Had he raped anyone, or done anything incriminating really, the witch would have killed him on the stop.

>>713449012
What fucking witch?

>>713449130
ligma balls

>>713438754 (OP)
I have a bunch of arcade and NES games on my pc, so I'd just play all of them.

>>713449012
I doubt it. Doesn't make sense, the point was to teach him a lesson. That would defeat the purpose. A lil rape doesn't matter when the day gets reset. Plus he does bad stuff, he lies to the woman to fuck her and he steals money and kills the groundhog. Where is the line supposed to be drawn?

Better explanation: if he's irredeemably bad then he's already in hell, if he can learn his lesson and become truly good then he deserves to be free.

I'm here to make a new post.

>>713449130
It was going to be the original explanation for the time loop but they decided to leave it out of the final cut.

>>713438754 (OP)
Half Life probably

What game would you play, if you were stuck in a Groundhog Day?

Too early for flapjacks?

it'd have to be something you would enjoy replaying from start to finish in one day, every day, for presumably years on end.
THPS3 is an easy pick for me

>>713447916
He had fluent conversations, and for the piano he was improvising incredibly fast boogie-woogie. That's definitely something alone that would take 3-5 years of constant practice, and the languages a similar time frame.

>>713438754 (OP)
Has to be a short-ish game with zero progression or one you could beat in less than 24 hours. Probably some roguelike game like Isaac.

>>713438754 (OP)
Total War Warhammer 3, it's pretty much got infinite replay value.

Stein's gate?

>>713438754 (OP)
Does my progress reset everytime the day resets too? Because if so I'd have to go with some arcade style game or a roguelike like Heavy Rain 2 or Dead Cells.

>>713438754 (OP)
Tetris or anything that can reset daily.

>>713438754 (OP)
i'd alternate between videogames and a violent rape spree

>>713453080
I'm trying to spread out of my comfort zone genres, can you give me a sales pitch for this? and do I actually need to know anything about warhammer?

>>713438754 (OP)
What would suck if I were ever stuck in a Groundhog Day scenario is id be too paranoid to take advantage of it, worried that the loop would end when I tried

>>713438754 (OP)
An ability to invoke groundhog day at will would definitely be one i'd want the most if i ever had the choice.

>>713438754 (OP)
Is this the best movie poster of all time?

I'd pick up Fortnite streaming and see how many viewers I can get in 24 hours on a fresh channel.

Majora's mask, so I could play a time loop in my time loop.

>>713454857
Rather than a full on loop, what I'd wish for would be some sort of pseudo time-freeze pause menu
Feeling like shit and enormously tired? Pause, sleep to your heart's content and resume feeling fresh
Someone's saying something so extremely stupid it deserves to be carefully dismantled and humilliated? Pause, mull it over, resume and repeat until necessary, your conversational dishonesty doesnt mean jacksquat if I can call out every single weaseling attempt
A difficult test you need time for? Pause and get all the time you need
Self defense? You better catch me with my guard down because I'm gonna abuse pause buffering as much as I possibly can, even if I have to fight for weeks in frame by frame
Can I interact with stuff nearby around? firstly, rape, second, make notes for everything, always carry laxatives on you the moment you want someone to get gone
There's probably far more bullshit you could pull, but all this is already more than enough

>>713449012
The loop Is actually caused Ned Ryerson. He is in fact the Devil and uses the timeloop trick to acquire Phil's soul. It's why the loop only breaks when he buys his 'health insurance'

Bill Murray has never been funny. There is said it.

>>713457440
>t. Chevy Chase

>>713454309
It's a 4X with RTS battles. It's got tons of content, endless mods, and if you enjoy the game it will provide hundreds of hours of entertainment.

>>713456114
Do you age in the time pause? Cause then if you pause too much youll be aging faster than everyone else

>>713457791
I'm curious about 4x but never dipped my toes on them, is it a good introduction to the genre?

>>713447916
American's have to go against their natural superiority to speak like moon men. It takes longer than that.

>>713454309
Disregard the anon saying its a 4x, you cant win the game or even progress in any meaningful way without fighting

>>713439153
A lot.
Oroginal script says he spent 10k years in the loop. I assume at that point you have done way worse than just rape.

>>713457863
I'd say that if you can rest in pause that would mean your metabolism is still kicking and you should age and get hungry
But then we'd get into the "balancing" territory of having a superpower, which would make it "fair" to use, but also gay, so I'd say no, but its not like I'd get to choose in the first place.
Or that it would ever happen

>>713448926
Now I want a sequel with these premises
>BloodDog Days

>>713458037
Total war is 4x in the sense that it has "diplomacy" and you need money to to buy troops and you need to explore the map to kill the other factions. In reality all Total war titles are 1X (fighting) strategy games. TW:WH3 is the latest but its the worst in my opinion. Its solely propped up by GW paypigs.
Its cool to watch your army fight though, this is true through almost all the titles, even warhammer ones.

I kind of feel you would be stuck to just short games like rouge likes or multiplayer games since you'd never be able to play an RPG since all your progress would reset the next "day"
Then again I think multipayer might become predictable too since you'd be fighting the same players every"day" too.

I think gaming would get boring fast in a groundhog day scenario.

Maybe her butt hurts

>>713458104
Oh I think I'm fine with that, but I dont really know anything about 4x, other than eyeing stellaris and being discouraged at trying to figure out how to pirate DLC

>>713449012
>or done anything incriminating really
he stole money from an armored vehicle, drove Phil off a cliff, duped a woman into having sex with him, punched Ned in the face, let the old soup man die multiple times before he started helping him, went joyriding on the railroad tracks. Did you even watch the movie? He did awful things. Not to mention his public suicides that must have caused mental scarring on dozens of people.
If him doing bad things got him permakilled someone was not paying attention.

Shadow of Memories

>>713458729
I have over 1000+ hours in it. Im highly autistic and playing that game just clicks for my brain for some reason.
Its not fun, especially since the last update kinda gutted and reworked everything for the worse.

>>713458729
If you’ve ever played HOMM think of total war as HOMM but with real time combat

>no matter what you play, all progress will reset at the end of the day
unless it's an online game where you do not care about progression or items there is not a single game that would interest you for more than a week in groundhog day.

>>713439490
Maybe old school RPGs with password systems. The issue would be remembering the password.

>>713459057
I wouldn't.

How long could you realistically spend in a groundhog day before you run out of shit to do and go insane?

>>713459291
The scariest part would be the loop suddenly ending after I've done something unforgivable

>>713459035
Silly anon. I've always been here!

>>713459364
considering doing 'the right thing' doesn't seem to matter at first, I would probably try to kill myself after about a month or so.

>>713459550
But then you'd just wake up.

>>713438754 (OP)
A game with a password system, duh.

>>713459403
I just know I would go full on degenerate if I simply could do whatever because there were no consequence.
But not knowing what would trigger the loop to end is a gamble.

>>713459403
Thing is how would you even know when a loop has ended? like if I die a million times and just come back but one day for some stupid reason I die and I stay dead due to the loop ending I feel like I'd never want to die anyways in a loop

>>713438754 (OP)
League of Legends or Dota 2
Playing mobas is basically groundhog day, you repeat the same shit on the same map over and over, you never progress, you never get any satisfaction from it, yet you're doomed to repeat it

>>713459624
I wouldn't know that the first time I did it though.

>>713459364
Less then 6 months. Probably alot less for most people. A feeling of isolation would quickly settle in after coming to terms with the loop. You'd probably also experience a schizophrenic break after slowly seeing nothing as real since your actions can't affect anything.

Majora's mask, so I could play a time loop in my time loop.

>>713438754 (OP)
Literally any online game. Playing the same matches over & over again, I'd be able to know what everyone else is doing before they do it & absolutely dunk on them. I'd be able to spot cheaters, and be able to prove it the next day.

What's the best "Loop" movie?
I know groundhog's day is considered by many to be the best.
I rather liked Edge of tomorrow personally.

>>713438754 (OP)
How is this cover so bad?

What game would you play, if you were stuck in a Groundhog Day?

>>713459939
Edge of Tomorrow doesn't get enough credit.
Cronocrimenes (Time Crimes) is a great Spanish film about a guy who accidentally goes back in time about an hour, and through a series of events traps himself in a timeloop trying to stop someone from murdering his wife.

>>713459364
I think I could go for decades. there's a lot of shit I want to learn

Its funny how this entire thing is looked at like a curse, but you:
Never have to pay rent again
Money replenishes every day
Can play games constantly
Never age

Its just like real life but better.

>>713460924
your save file would reset at the end of the day

>>713460924
no new games come out

>>713439540
>Is it morally wrong to rape in a groundhog day situation?
It is, because the suffering happened.
If you don't find it morally wrong, you can just justify every crime in reality, because one day the victim will be dead, and that just erases the memories like in the movie.

>>713461458
I've got a pretty substantial backlog, even if you only include games that can reasonably be beaten in <24hours.
Once I work through that I'd have beaten video games and could move on to other interests. Maybe basket weaving.

>>713459939
EoT is pretty good, until the loop ends
Then it's kind of meh
Pic related is my favorite

>>713461315
And? You'd still remember you played it and you literally have eternity, you could probably finish most games within 24 hours

>>713459939
This is probably the best Hollywood action film of the last 15 years

>>713461458
Even if you were somehow stuck in the 80s when this movie too place you'd still have a ton of games to play. If it were current times, you'd never get through them all.

fuck every woman in town like he did

>>713438754 (OP)
rape

>>713438754 (OP)
I'd try to cause as much mayhem as possible
Not, like, rape and murder everyone in the town, that's easy
But manipulate politicians into starting a war, maybe break into nuclear weapons control and just end it all

>>713460924
its a curse cause you dont progress, its all reset

>>713462032
but you dont get backlog, its the exact same game every day with little variation

>>713462531
You wouldn't be able to do most of that. In the movie the outside lines were down and the roads were closed off.

>>713462558
The fuck are you talking about. You can buy, pick and choose a different game whenever you want unless you start the loop with zero money but then you could just take it.

>>713462836
You don't need the roads when you have the Internet
Wasting limited time on travelling is impractical anyway
Most of it comes down to tons of social engineering, I think

>>713447916
>>713439153
The real question is, how long did he last before he just started executing the piano teacher? There's no way he bothered with that "actually advanced practicing" excuse for multiple years.

>>713460924
It's fun until you wake up at 300 years old trapped in the same town, on the same day, and have become bored with everything you ever wanted to do and can't die.

>>713462884
You need to beat the game in 24 hours.

You can really tell a person has never watched the "A Nice Place to Visit' Twilight Zone episode.

>>713462945
>In the movie the outside lines were down
Hey dipshit, if the lines are down you don't have internet. The whole thing is that you're cut off from the outside world, which would also mean no cellular internet either.

>>713439039
That's one of the worst games you can pick, unless you're fine replaying the same first 24 hours of the game each time.

>>713463330
Yes, i've seen it. But this is hardly the same thing.

>>713438754 (OP)
I said it before.

The ending is unrealistic. I think someone did the math - he re-lived the same day way too many times. At least several thousands times. That is an actual definition of hell, and for him to keep his sanity at the end makes no sense. If I were him, I would kill myself the next morning; not only because I would woke up with Andie MacDowell in bed, but because I wouldn't risk the possibility of it happening again.

>>713463179
Yes and?

>>713459939
Happy Death Day is pretty dumb, but a deeply fun movie

>>713463416
It's exactly the same thing. You eventually get bored of everything and lose it.

You're fucking retarded.
The guy in a nice place to visit gets wishes, groundhog day is a simple time loop where anything he wants he still has to go out and try to get.

ebonization of blood
blood being 80 black slang very close to brother

>>713463695
Imagine the Looney Troons shit in care homes in the future.

>>713463440
he didn't keep his sanity, he literally went through an extended period of trying to kill himself over and over

>>713463440
>That is an actual definition of hell, and for him to keep his sanity at the end makes no sense
In the strictest most literal sense it makes perfect sense, as he wasn't fucking off and being insane.
Insanity is doing the same things over and over again expecting different results. He was doing all sorts of shit, like learning languages, picking up instruments, etc.
It'd be like calling you insane for doing an NG+ run of a game even though you went for a totally different build.

>>713463993
You're thinking of a different episode. A Nice Place to Visit is the one where the cardshark dies and thinks he went to heaven, does the same thing over and over at a casino until he gets bored, says he doesn't belong in Heaven and asks to go to the other place, and the devil finally reveals he already is in the other place, laughing maniacally as the guy tries to open the door.

>>713464063
Yes, at first. Then he learned how to play piano, doing ice sculptures with a chainsaw, and other shit. He went from being a bitter person, to suicidal, and ended being a changed man who suddenly enjoys life - after spending an "eternity" in the same loop.

>>713464169
AVA BRAUN, HELP ME

>>713464169
We're talking about the exact same thing. You don't remember when he wishes for money and a stacked girl who won't quit and gets it?

The point is he got bored because everything requires zero effort.

>>713439153
Rape, none. But he probably learned how to seduce a lot of them.

>>713464321
I guess I did forget about the wishes, but it's at least a combination of zero effort and repetition, not just zero effort. I mean, he's locked in a casino after all.

>>713464357
No, he definitely raped and murdered.

>>713464295
right, like, the idea is that even insanity is eventually worn down by the infinite flow of time, and that the only eternal value that can withstand it is caritas

>>713464130
Insanity is quoting Far Cry 3.

>>713438754 (OP)
arcade games
progress doesn't matter
I won't have to memorize passwords
no waiting for cutscenes

>>713464524
Are you basing this on "nah, it's totally what he would do" or was there a line at the end that implied it?
Because the only one I recall him killing was himself, and maybe the groundhog.

>>713464729
Insanity is thinking Far Cry 3 came out in 1981.

>>713464664
no, blood is an african american vernacular slang term
it is a term of endearment that implies the other person is of the same blood/in the same "family" as them
it's often used for younger black kids "young blood", a cultural tool used to instill a sense of community

>>713458668
So it would be best to fall back to a previous game? how are the previous ones regarding QoL/jank?

>>713451761
It was the best that it was left out but I do think it's a decent enough explanation if you want to get autistic about it but this lil romcom

>>713464841
I think we've failed to establish if in this scenario we're all trapped in 1981 or current day.

>>713458870
Wasn't he naked when he an heroed or am I being memory holed?

>>713464802
>Are you basing this on "nah, it's totally what he would do"
Yes. He was there for 10-30 years, eventually you're going to do a bunch of evil shit when stuck in a loop.

>>713443367
You'd never climb

>>713464984
I'm saying the quote that Far Cry 3 steals regarding the "definition of insanity" first came out in 1981 and has since then been misattributed as a thing that Einstein said (he couldn't have since he died in 55).

>>713465127
when he electrocuted himself in the bath, i think

>>713465131
If you are stuck in a supernatural loop its probably best to not do evil stuff

>>713462531
That's happening right now without being stuck on one day.

>>713464802
What if killing someone (other than himself) is the condition to end the loop and and he has to live on as a murderer?

>basically every sci fi/fantasy series that goes on long enough has a Groundhog Day episode
>they’re almost all bad
Except stargate, it was great
And xena was pretty decent

>>713465195
NTA
I'm think he was in a blue robe or some shit. Or pajamas.

>>713465263
Not really. But also at some point once everything's lost meaning, being evil for evils sake is much more boring than self improvement.

>>713465349
>Not really
great argument thanks

>>713465312
Didn't he kill the guy in the car when he killed himself?

>>713465263
You say that now, but what about on repeat #976445?

>>713465425
You never made an argument in the first place.

Everyone keeps saying rape but he could just buy the most expensive prostitute to bang, get the experience, then rewind and get his money back.

>>713465329
for me it's Red Dwarf

>>713439490
If you think that's bad imagine trying to save any work on your computer

>>713465440
IIRC he kicked the guy out before driving off a cliff.

>>713465529
And then rape her next loop.

>>713447916
it depends on the language. an English speaker could probably learn conversational German or Dutch within a year or two, but languages like Chinese would take significantly longer.

>>713438754 (OP)
>if

>>713465263
If you're on a supernatural loop without context, and you realize your situation, the safest thing to assume is that it was caused by some crazy fucker wishing ill on you, which would imply there's no meaning to anything you do, so you could do absolutely whatever because it will ultimately not matter at all.

>>713465795
God has done some fucked up tests, anon.

In one of those days I would nuke china

>>713465907
>tests
He literally let a man suffer a great deal of misfortune just because he had a bet with the devil.

>>713465795
>the safest thing to assume
my point is you can no longer assume much, and it's best to play it safe, i think "its probably a witch curse" is quite a leap, but i get your pov

>>713466014
Which is hilarious because hes omnipotent and would know the outcome of the bet and the suffering it would cause and did it anyway, making him evil.

>>713465907
Yeah and for shit like that many people forsake and forget him, so if you were to be in a timeloop you'd only turn to god and his whimsical rules as a last resort when everything else has failed

>>713459939
The manga was so much better I never want to see the movie again. I haven't read the light novel, might do that in the future.

Prove that you're not in a loop right now. You know how.

ALttP randomizer, FF6 Beyond Chaos randomizer. Could always generate different seeds so I would never run out of unique ones to play.

Awfully generous and specific number there. If someone is dedicating their entire days to something knowing they can ignore their commitments, maybe a few years. It’s also shown that damage to his body doesn’t persist, so he might be able to stay up for the whole day and wake up not feeling the consequences.

That's easy enough anon. I'd have a winning lottery ticket.

Anyone here played this game?
It's a game where you are stuck in a time loop and have to solve a mystery but it's apparently pretty mediocre

It also features voices by James McAvoy, Daisy Ridley, and Willem Dafoe

Absolute brainlet fantasy. You have 16 hours, that's it. The best you could to is convince a mayor of a small city to imprison the homeless.

Once the loop ends you'd have to live with the fact that you committed suicide/murder/rape; even if the victims wouldn't know it, you would. That's why it's impossible to stay sane.

Was In Stars and Time any good? Looked kinda gay but I heard it's a time loop game.
