Are there any games that evoke the same feeling as Made in Abyss? That sense of exploration and delving into the unknown

>>715363824 (OP)
megaman legends dungeons did this for me

The game was straight ass, bro. The manga and anime are great. Shame the creator is an unironic pedo.

Etrian Odyssey series

>>715363824 (OP)
Outer Wilds is great for exploration and mystery but it lacks characters and action, so depends if you want that

Etrian Odyssey games, but with a lot less body horror, and actually you can come back to town any time you have the chance.
Fear and Hunger 1, but its a lot less cute looking at, its even more hyperhostile, and everything its less interacting with the Dungeons themselves and more like interacting with the gods to get interesting shit.
After that, maybe the Made in Abyss game, but despite having plenty of soul in it is a shovelware of a mess. The cutscenes and voice acting, and some interactions are amazing, but unfor it feels like it needed a lot more polish.

>>715363939
true, it makes it hard for me to recommend the show to normies. I just choose to ignore the pedophilic shit in the show for literally everything else about it

>>715363824 (OP)
Rainworld.

The feeling of helplessness doesn't really translate to most games with exploration.

>>715363824 (OP)
Torchlight 1
Outward (to an extent)
Noita
MMOs like Albion or Runescape that put your items on the line evoke a similar feeling for me.

>>715363824 (OP)

I'll throw the first Subnautica game into the mix. Before you realize the leviathans are toothless and basically will never kill you it feels just as hostile, and the fact there is no in game map makes exploration and discovery the main draw of the world.

The Forest (and maybe Sons of, haven't finished it yet) is another one with a hostile world. Less interesting to explore, even though exploration is really important as well.

Pleb tier opinion. The village was gigakino, the only issue it had was the slow pace of chapter releases.

>>715371037
>Series went downhill after one of the best arcs in all of fiction
Well yeah doesn't mean it isn't still good

The Abyss is a metaphorical vagina.
The gate past Bondrewd was the cervix.
The story is about birth.
Maiden Abyss.
The author talking about how he stuck his dick in the hole was a big hint.

>>715371264
Riko was born in the abyss too
It's pretty obvious

>>715371264
Blobputa is getting kind of stale as a gag though she is still cute.

Trying to decide how much work I should put into this concept, and you guys are probably the best people to ask:

TTRPG game, maybe make it vidya if I can ever find enough motivation to learn how.
The concept is a rip off of MiA. Players would be "foreign sanctioned delvers". People working for foreign governments, given special permission to delve in the Abyss for artifacts to send home. Players would largely be scummy criminals and expendables, since no one wants to send proper people into the murder hole. Players have an artifact quota they need to meet or their license is revoked (read: they're either abandoned on the island or just killed). Oorth also gets first dibs on artifacts they bring up. But the players also need some artifacts to make delving easier. Having to balance those three competing interests to get deeper into the hole to make ends meet. Maybe they lie to Oorth or their government handlers about what they brought up. Maybe they find something truly spectacular and try and smuggle it off the island and home to show all those assholes who's boss. All while also trying to survive the murder hole and its wildlife (I have a great concept for a terrestrial bobbit worm hiding in a rock formation encounter).

Would you play this?

>>715365018
>Torchlight 1
Really? Cartoony Diablo goes places? I've played it, but I don't remember a thing except the pet mechanic.

>>715371037
I agree. Season 2 was a waste of time, I could not care any less about the city.

>>715371380
I'm pretty sure everyone is waiting for a proper MiA-like. I'm not sure about the quota, makes me think of lethal company

ADOM

>>715371827
Kino...

>>715371264
more like a black hole
so it's a big gaping asshole

>>715371801
The idea is more like Reccetear. Where you often want to discount good items to the adventurers so they can clear better dungeons for you.
Its about forcing the players to have to make choices about what to keep, what to give up to the quota and adding an element of subterfuge as you try and keep your best stuff from being sold off or shipped back to the motherland. I might scrap Oorth's cut if it was vidya though, too many moving parts. But in a TTRPG where lying and concealment is more freeform it would be easier to keep.

Below is a somewhat mediocre and flawed game (I still think it's worth playing) but it has a similar base structure to MiA and has a similar oppressive feel, just without any character interactions or explicitly told story.

>>715363824 (OP)
Xenoblade.
It was the main inspiration for MiA after all.

>>715370052

>>715369356
I think there's a truth to this.

>>715363824 (OP)
>nobody posted Noita yet

I'm making a game with GBC style graphics (think pokemon goldish, slightly more higher screen space/resolution, think PC98) that's a combination of zelda/metroidvania and immersive sims, topdown, about exploring antarctica and nearby islands

it might be pixelshit but I'm hoping it can capture that feeling of isolation and exploration that old games used to have

>>715364983
Yeah Rain World really captures that feeling of exploring an alien world with a living breathing ecosystem where a single mistake can spell death, but observation and preserverance will reward you with mastery

>>715382195
That sounds great, Anon. Good luck.

>>715382195
i feel like GBC style graphics implies a very zoomed in perspective which would make it harder to get a scope of the world compared to an NES/SNES styled game, but then there's Void Stranger that made due with a game boy-ass style.
Godspeed anon

Yeah, he wouldn't have been able to work so hard if he wasn't getting something out of it that he couldn't get elsewhere. A good artist is someone that wants what he can't have, and as such will go to great lengths to create something that embodies his yearning. It's his muse, so to speak.

>>715371141
seriously
while the chapters were coming out it was super confusing but reading/watching the village in one go was pretty cool

>>715363824 (OP)
Made in Abyss was literally inspired by video games that evoke the same feeling. Specifically Cave Story and Xenoblade. Pic related.

I think Hollow Knight is the purest video game mirror of MiA though.

>>715369356
Lewis Caroll, Nabakov the list goes on

prepubertal gynecomastia

>>715383579
I just don't see how Cave Story is in any way similar to it. As for Hollow Knight, partially yes and no. Delving into the mines, caves and the abyss evokes a similar feeling but the rest pf the game just isn't there. I would also add Ender Lillies' Verboten Domain into this category.
I would still say S.T.A.L.K.E.R. gives off the closest feeling to what MiA game should be, despite having next to no verticality.

>>715384129
only dudes get gynecomastia
you probably mean macromastia

nanachi's nice smelling dick and balls

>>715379890
>its just a boring anime dungeon crawler with no world or atmosphere
Not that guy, but when I first played EO1 and got to floor 21, I literally exclamated "Holy shit!" when I saw the name of the stratum and it all clicked.

The games definitely have a story and atmosphere.

>>715384327
>only dudes get gynecomastia
yes
>you probably mean macromastia
no

>I just don't see how Cave Story is in any way similar to it

Then you must be pretty fucking retarded since the main MiA cast is directly based on Cave Story's cast. Mad scientist in a funky helmet who turns a little girl into a cute rabbit monster, ring any bells? I mean just look at it.

>>715363927
Megaman Legends was a direct inspiration for MiA

>>715385543
Etrian niggers, is the entire series like MIA or only some games? I want to start with 3HD since its the easiest to boot and has way better reviews than the first two

>>715372565
if you've played nethack, it's very similar, but it starts on a fixed overworld map, and you can visit towns & go into different side dungeons.
there's an increasing background radiation that gets stronger the deeper you go, and it also gets stronger over time. getting corrupted mutates you in various ways, eventually leading to death.

>>715388472
They are all similar but ideally 1 is your first game if you haven't been spoiled by the twist. 3 is the second best starting point especially if you already know

>>715363824 (OP)
the past 2 days I binged and read all of made in abyss out so far
I have lore questions for people more familiar with the series
-I'm kind of confused by the curse. It gets I guess clarified later but it feels a bit different than how it was portrayed earlier in the series. Do you get afflicted with the curse any time you move a certain amount vertically or only in certain points in the abyss? It seems like any real verticality fucks you up but earlier in the series we only really saw people get nauseous and shit when they were ascending like OUT of the abyss as opposed to constant nausea the entire climb out
-Do all people who "lose their humanity" due to the curse of the abyss become blobs and only people who receive the blessing become narehate? Or can you retain your higher facilities on your own ad just have to be lucky?
-Is Riko considered a full on white whistle now that she has one? It might be a silly question but I saw it as more of a promotion for people who are really skilled as opposed to literally just owning a white whistle? Because frankly she's just been hard carried by Reg and that doesn't seem fair
also as an aside everything that happened with Prushka and Faputa/her mom was fucking ROUGH. That is legitimately some of the most tragic shit I've ever seen.

>>715388691
Alright, thanks, Imma fuck off then before I get spoiled

>>715367939
the titties are only for Reg, sosu

>>715388907
Just to clarify when I way 1 I mean the original not untold. For some retarded fucking reason atlus puts the majority spoiler in untold opening and the entire story segment they reworked also spoiled it. HD is the original with a coat of paint which is why I am assuming you brought up 3

>>715368894
>Nanachi's sacrifice meant nothing, she got healed by a mcguffin
didn't goopy guy say that Nanachi is basically an invalid from now on and he'll never be able to actually walk normally again? I feel like that'll have bigger story significance

Ah yes, I love 5 minute intros
I love being forced into tedious pseudo-cinematics interrupting my game
I love holding forward while the camera pans around in some epic way like I haven't been here a dozen times already wasting 10 more minutes of my time

It's like someone took the tedium of going through the depths in rainworld more than once to ascend all other cats and made it the entire game.
Oh well, if nothing else at least the intro being 5 minutes of just staring at a camera slowly pan into a ship at sea is sincere about what the game is like.

>>715388846
- Nanachi explained the curse, speedreader-kun. It's basically like layers upon layers of invisible mist (some people like Nanachi can see/sense it) and in some parts of the abyss these layers are thinner or have holes in them that you can pass through safely.
- Most become blobs or die, but they don't all become invincible I-Have-No-Mouth-And-I-Must-Scream vegetables like Mitty. You can also become a narehate via other means, like most of the original inhabitants of the narehate village.
- Riko has a white whistle so she is a white whistle. But it's not like anyone outside the abyss will know about it given how deep they are, unless bondaddy went back to the surface to gossip.

>>715388118
Tsukishi said Xenoblade in the artbook

>>715383579
man its kinda obvious in hindsight, the rabbit people, the monsters, the cyborgs, the teamwork of the duo... How haven't i made the connection before

>>715382195
we need more games in frozen areas

>>715390181
I know how the curse is layered, I must not have explained my question well.
What I mean is that going up and down in the first layer was seen as pretty normal and we didn't get basically any shows of any of the red whistle being nauseous unless they were directly leaving the abyss where as in the deeper layers they show that you're basically fucked if you have to climb a particularly steep hill. Is the first layer just so insanely thin and full of holes that you can reasonable do whatever you want there? I guess it'd make sense as the first layer but it just had me confused for a decent portion of the manga, since for the first couple layers I had assumed they were mostly fine unless they hit particular, like, boundaries.
And yeah, I know Mitty is only immortal because of the blessing, and that there are narehate that exist without getting the blessing, but I'm asking is it possible for just 1 person without the blessing of the abyss to get inflicted with the curse and not completely blob out or just die? Like in the illustration of the effect of the curse at the beginning of the manga just shows some dude getting like fins on his head and moving on, is that something that is actually possible or without the blessing you just turn into a gross mess and/or die

>>715390635
Because if he says eo they unironcially have a case for lawsuit

>>715391240
Its right in the first explanation of the abyss.
Each layer down gets progressively more taxing to ascend for any amount of time.
The first is just nausea, which is why they send kids into it to fuck around.
By the time they're in the cups of giants its bleeding from all orifices. Which is why it was so risky for Reg to ascend after Riko got poisoned by the porcupine.
BoneDaddy's layer shouldn't have been survivable, and after that any ascension starts turning you into a lump.

There is a bit of wiggle room, between Nanachi's senses and just going really slow it seems like you can manage little hills and quirks of terrain. But just a flight of stairs is otherwise enough to activate the curse. There's a full panel explaining it somewhere.

>>715388846
The white whistle thing is a bit of a subversion.
Initially the whistles are framed as nothing but a rank thing given as nothing but a status symbol to reflect your prestige. But the true nature of the white whistle shows how the relation is actually inversed. With the context of how they are obtained, naturally only the most experienced and wicked explorers would get their hands on one. This is also the shock moment that makes Riko see her mother in a different light for a moment since it became clear to her that even she had to go through the process despite seeming "good hearted" unlike Ozen or Bondrewd.

>>715363824 (OP)
Found a game about delving and you have to do it with little to no visibility, the community is on each other's throat on not blatantly spoonfeeding anyone. The dev quit though so it's an abandoned game.
Yes i was talking about roblox map.
