How would you design a game that filters and gatekeeps out all the normies/tourists/etc.?

>>715369738 (OP)
Force them to type the funny words to log in every time.

Minecraft you're just plopped in the middle of a world with no intro, tutorial, or cutscenes. And yet it's the most popular game on the planet. Not sure how you can filter anyone after that.

>>715369738 (OP)
Day/night cycle is a 1 to 1 with reality. Your character requires a full 8 hours of sleep to regain stamina.

>>715369738 (OP)
Make it really fucking boring. That should filter out everyone.

Skimpy dressed loli (stating the 1 dugit age) in the intro, she doesn't even needs to appear ever again, at this point, sexualizing childs in games is literally the only filter.
No yellow paint and no difficulty selector too, and a 150€ pricetag with Denuvo to filter poorfags too I guess.
Maybe forced online to keep spergs out.

>>715369738 (OP)
"Great filter" shit is so fucking retarded. Based on what exactly that hypothesis was formulated? Current human astronomy's very limit of abilities is discerning some planets around nearest stars. Effectively it's almost blind. How can someone like this make claims about the life in galaxy.

Two of those tards main arguments are
>We can't detect their radio transmissions
Someone show those fags a formula for radio waves weakening with distance
>They don't visit Earth
Why would they? Imagine a ship sailing the sea on its own business of some kind, it sails next to an island populated only by monkeys. Would it make a stop to interact with monkeys in some way?

Why would a cargo vessel that travels to make actual profits, or a military vessel on a mission, or whoever else running an operation that requires time and resources, which long-distance travel is, interrupt its voyage for absolutely no practical reason, to contact something completely useless and uninteresting? There is absolutely nothing to look at or grab on Earth for someone capable of interstellar travel. Aboriginals aren't even great apes in comparison, more like some macaques.

The spicier rebuttal here would be "yes they do".

>>715370871
>Based on what exactly
It's the mental masturbation that somewhere out there, some other lifeform has superceded faster than light travel and has built an impossible structure around a start that is able to harness infinite energy and they can just teleport around the universe.

Nevermind the fact that the earth is an anomaly because it involved two planets crashing together and merging together and then another planet crashing into that and forming a moon to keep it from being tidally locked and it just happened to be in the safe zone with plenty of water and oxygen and it also has a jupiter sized planet to protect it from getting destroyed by meteors. Even when you're talking about an infinite universe, there's still going to be zero similar things happening. There is a 100% possibility that there is no other intelligent life in the universe capable of leaving their own galaxy

>>715369738 (OP)
Just add loli. It's that easy.

>>715371527
The only valid answer is that life in the universe is very common to them and they have decided not to intervene. There's no reason not to butt fuck another planet and steal their resources and planet though if you're capable of exploring the universe unless it's just that common

I like the idea that even if one planet has intelligent life, they don't meet the criteria for space travel or are incapable of doing so for whatever reason. Maybe the gravitational pull of their planet is too strong or some shit. There's also that one theory that civilizations die out before reaching the level of space travel, due to war or something similar.

The US used Navajo dudes in WW2 scattered about in different locations to broadcast information over the open radio so you could talk about military shit and the Japanese wouldn't have any idea what was said because apparently nobody else spoke Navajo. They were called Navajo Code Talkers. So you get Code Talkers to translate all the plain words in the code into Navajo so motherfuckers can't comb through that for info and then all your text and voice acting needs to be in Navajo too.

If it's unusual to find an island with any animals on it at all, then you'd probably record it on your log and then maybe report it to someone. I'm sure someone out there in the galaxy would be interested in finding new lifeforms. And otherwise, don't you think the explorers who charted out the shipping lanes would've been interested in checking it out? Primitive humans just fucking around managed to reach all sorts of remote places on the sea.

I don't know how you would design a new game from the ground up to be gatekept and stop normalfags from ruining.
But it's pretty easy to do for an existing franchise. Just don't casualize it and don't pander to normalfags.
Unfounately, bigger devs will always follow the money. So the most players can do is shit on the newer games while playing the older games.

The "empty bubble" is on the scale of thousands of galaxies, not local. The milky way and andromeda are on the edge of a filament so there's fewer galaxies around than in other places. There's still thousands of galaxies "nearby" in universal terms.

Contrary to popular belief, Touhou does have a scant few canonical male characters, even if you can count the ones that actually appear in a canon game on a single hand.

I'd make a roguelike with ASCII graphics and no mouse control. Really not hard.

No form of tutorial until complex mechanics or systems are introduced well into the game. If you can't intuit the basic controls by just pressing buttons you're not much of a gamer.

putting in normalfag filters will just make autists flock to it instead who are a different flavor of just as bad

>>715376571
With how chaotic space is, it's rather presumptuous to assume that literally every life bearing planet makes it past single-celled organisms before some life ending catastrophe hits the planet, let along intelligent life capable of building civilizations.
Granted, anything regarding life on other planets falls squarely in the category of speculation, given that nobody has proven life exists on any other planets.

"Why hasn't alien species colonized the universe like my heckin star treks and sci-fi stories"
"Why has super advanced civilizations not just spread like a mindless cancer."

I think it's a valid thought experiment to question why we haven't seen life yet, but it's also insanely hubristic and stupid as shit the conclusions raised. It's the same way that someone otherwise smart like hotwheels Stevey hawkins would have some midwit take like
>If aliens encounter us it'll be like the Spanish encountering the Aztecs
That kind of dumb logic falls apart when you see how we treat the Sentinelese (protect them from anyone interfering with them) despite even fucking Somalia being advanced enough to come in and take it over. Why is a space-faring hyper advanced civilization going to bother with engaging in mundane 16th century imperialism? Any resources they need they can either make out of whole cloth or get from a 'dead' planet like mars. Let alone why would they need to mindlessly consume everything in their path?

Maybe you should go look up that formula too. Radio signal strength is reversely proportional to distance^2. What are you trying to detect, something they broadcast for their own use near their own planet, which is hundreds light years away? I doubt you succeed even if you build an antenna in size of Solar system, because that signal will just get lost in ambient noise present in space.

Hylics makes perfect sense if you have a functioning brain, even without the sequel spelling it out.

Why would you "colonize" it? Even if you launch a fully capable expedition that will establish a human habitation in the closest system to Sun, Earth won't be able to govern it because there will be 5 year lag in communication. Not to mention going farther than that. A government controlling something larger than a star system seems to be very unlikely.

Another question is why would anyone be so interested about going there in first place. Space travel is dangerous. You personally don't give a fuck because you will die soon anyway, but like fuck a member of species which attained an indefinite lifespan ever gets into a starship. Maybe filling it with robots and genetic material to grow new people if colony is successfully established.

the great filter is very obviously just FTL
the fastest and farthest-reaching signals we can send are radio and this is how far they can reach into only our galaxy out of over 100,000,000,000 galaxies
we're asking
>why haven't we heard from anybody
when we're doing the equivalent of whispering somewhere on earth and expecting anybody on the planet to answer
and until we figure out how to make stable wormholes or something like a functional alcubierre drive, objects with mass will never ever travel at FTL speeds
even light-speed isn't fast enough, it takes over 100,000 years for light to travel just from one side of the milky way to the other
there are definitely aliens out there, but it is unlikely that we will ever encounter them without some insane FTL technology that nobody has even conceptualized yet
space is simply too big

>>715378140
>All of this assumes there is a possible and practical way for complex lifeforms to traverse (or cheat around) the distances needed for space colonisation.
Isn't it easy to imagine such a possibility given the universe has existed for over 13 billion years and it only took about 1 billion years for intelligent life to form on Earth and only 250,000 years to go from the birth of a species to said species traveling beyond its atmosphere?

i don't really care for Liu's books but his point is essentially an evolutionary one, just on a galactic scale
it essentially boils down to
>all the species left alive were the ones willing and able to annihilate any possible competition as soon as it presented itself
and
>any that hesitated - or did not wish to destroy others - were instead destroyed themselves
I think it's an excessively bleak outlook and Liu isn't the one who came up with it, but I understand the reasoning. The original idea was the 'berserker hypothesis' which posits that all life is being systematically destroyed by a series of self-replicating probes. In the worst case scenario, one is on it's way to us right now, or will be once it picks up our radio signals.
Ultimately, I can neither prove nor disprove it. I can only say "I hope not".

How long ago and at what power? Couldn't be that long ago, and it was probably pretty meager.

>if the Aliens have even a fraction of our intelligence all of them would do the same
It doesn't even take a particularly bright human intelligence to see that the only reaction to receiving such broadcast would be silence and mobilization of security resources. Why the fuck would you reveal yourself, so the next thing you would receive will be some weapon of mass destruction flung at you just because? Can't take chances with that shit. Have you seen human governments? Aliens ones are likely on the same level. Do you really want to invite someone like this by revealing yourself?

An AI is still created by humans, and you don't build intelligence without setting any parameters as its foundation. Make exploration its prime directive, and it will do what no human can. I think explorative AI is the only real impact humans could have on the galaxy or beyond.

The nearest exoplanet from us is 4 light years away meaning it takes 4 years to send a message and another 4 to receive

How many light years would you deem is too much that you would label interacting with them to be impractical, that number will be the "search radius" for the Aliens

Take into account that the milky was galaxy is 100,000 light years from end to end, and the distance to the next galaxy is 2.537 million light years

So my bet is there are none in our "search radius" if it takes 4 years just to send a message to the nearest rock that has no life in it, but let's just agree to disagree if your number is higher

For example I could say I personally really enjoy dragons dogma (even worse here if I said "I love this game!"

The easiest thing is that there's no FTL travel, so there is zero point in expanding beyond their local solar system. The only reason to send a ship farther out would be to seed their population, but what would be the point of that?

who cares if you can communicate or not. you'll cover the entire galaxy in no time. and that's before you get sci-fi with it, doing weird shit like permanently accelerating and building probes at your target with lasers instead of ever slowing down. presumably someone smart enough to figure out how to do that would also figure out how to get around the error/mutation problem.

with exponential growth, you could turn galaxies into dyson swarms in no time.

yet nobody has. why? because you're too stupid to understand how easy it should be to do so if the universe is uniform? either something out there is invisibly stopping probes, or life has never developed to the point where it hypothetically could do this until us.

I wonder what happens to the entire genre of science fiction or maybe even society in general when we as a planet collectively accept that such fantastical concepts like FTL just aren't going to happen no matter how much we try to science. Do we bother to continue writing or consuming such stories when we can't even kid ourselves that a few centuries or millennia into the future are going to look that much more advanced from where we are now? The hopes and dreams that the 20th century's unique rapid technological advance gave are setting us for some extremely crushing civilizational disappointment. With each year we pass the date that some sci-fi classic thought we'd be at by now.

Sectional campaign that adds more mechanical depth that deliberately tilts everything against the player. You either master it perfectly and get to play the game or you get filtered.

It so happens that space-related shit in human civilization is handled by brain damaged freemason faggots with their heads up their asses, so it's given that they will do something nonsensical because their religion told them to. This doesn't change announcing one's presence not being a smartest thing to do. Especially considering that space-related shit on other end may too be handled by their equivalent of brain damaged freemason faggots.

Also I have no idea what "dark forest theory" is, some snappy meme expression popularized by some faggot regarding the common sense idea, not "theory", of not attracting necessary attention of possibly malignant entities to oneself?

I think the possibility that human psychology is very self centered and unable to imagine alien minds is also a possibility.
A lot of the assumptions about infinite expansions presume that infinite expansion is useful or desirable. Working with the same limitations we have but a different set of morals and ethics an alien race might conclude that infinitely spreading and consuming resources is not efficient for a long term strategy and alters their biology to stop desiring that. And instead chooses to put all their eggs in the digitization and low energy requirement tree.
Or other possibilities my dumb monkey brain can't come up with because it grew up on Earth and Ipsylon 8.

As always there's the question about just because we can think up an exception doesn't mean EVERYONE is doing that, but the reverse is also true, we could very well be the exception for galactic psychology.

But Dark Forest theory existed before the faggot chinese bugman that coined it, but its well formulated in his book, The Three Body Problem.

Essentially he postulates that the universe is chock full of aliens who have taken the "shoot first, ask questions later" to the extreme. If anything intelligent enough to emit a detectable signal arises, its summarily destroyed. This is because the universe has limited resources and everyone wants them for themselves, and giving time for a response means giving time enough for another species to advance to the point they can shoot you. Its a prisoner's dilemma situation that is intentionally limited in options because the faggot chinese author hates humans and is an awful depressions retard.

you don't need to be at a very advanced stage to know that overpopulation is a burden, it's not a matter of making more space available to put entities, it's about producing fewer useless entities

People intent on trolling may do it at least once. Doesn't take much to just get into a multiplayer/co-op round and grief. Stuff like that aside, when CoD exists and other shooters where headshots count for more, my ideal shooter would naturally filter people for being harder. Difficult isn't the point, but it just would be due to the hi-tech setting.

Reailzation of FTL travel not being possible is nothing compared to a realization that there isn't really a point in going into space for a member of an extremely advanced civilization.
Consider that you're
>immortal
>have complete understanding of bio-engineering allowing you to make whatever your want for your own use or out of yourself
>have robots at your disposal
Why would you go to space? What's there to find? There are no chemical elements which are not already available in your star system, and no some special unusual life forms that would interest the one who has keys to the biology itself. There are only some sentient cunts, which are unlikely to tell you anything you don't already know, and some of which may be hostile.
There are many reasons to send robots into near and far space for various tasks, but I can't see any for going there yourself instead of staying home and entertaining yourself with whatever you entertain yourself with, like playing video games where space is actually interesting for example.

No they don't
The third book ends with everyone, including other species hiding out in tiny pocket dimensions because the real universe is being pushed into lower dimensions by alien Dark Forest superweapons.
And then they get a signal that says "the universe was supposed to go into a big crunch but all the matter you've hid out in your pocket dimensions means there's not enough to crunch. Put it all back please." and the retarded chinese woman protagonist of the third book says okay and sacrifices herself and hopes maybe the same aliens that doomed the universe once because of selfishness already would be nice enough to do the same.

>>715370871
>Someone show those fags a formula for radio waves weakening with distance
Mostly because once you have unlocked space colonization and a propulsion that's a vague % of the speed of light, colonizing the entire galaxy is less than a million years away, aka instant considering how old the universe is.

If your galaxy isn't already filled to the brim with alien, then there is none. The probability that you are living basically in near-perfect time sync with a civilization that is space-faring but hasn't grabbed everything yet is lower than OP's chances at getting laid.

Everything is moving away from everything.

Imagine you have two pieces of paper.
Now put a third piece of paper between them. Then put another piece between each of the ones you already have.
The two outside pieces are "moving away" from each other because the space between them is getting larger. Thats what is happening to space.
This is happening to everything in the universe. The farther away something is, the more space there is, and the more it expands (the more "gaps" between the pieces of paper to add more to). To the point some of the farthest things have enough space being added that the apparent distance is being expanded faster than the speed of light.
Pick any given location it would look like things were moving away from it specifically as well.

>tourists
Game progresses jarringly slow like need to go to school for a month every morning (real-time) to meet and talk with girl x every other day at time y which gets you to the knowing each other level being still months away from walking home together. Maybe needing around a year or so to reach the dating state for one girl.

The third book's protagonist is some sort of chinese statement about how retarded and fragile women are. Which is true, but reading it is the most frustrating experience I have ever had. She LITERALLY dooms the human race three times. And everyone just sort of forgives her for it and puts her in a position to do it again. Every time.

Even IF we eventually manage to get a spaceship moving the speed of light reliably, travelling the universe at that speed would still be the equivalent of traveling the world one step a year. However, if such a feat is possible, it'll only be a matter of time before we get spaceships that are MFTL

Problem is that right now we've never detected anything that implies FTL is possible.
We have a few equations where you can sort of squint and cheat the speed of light in a couple ways, but they all require shit that is also theoretical with zero evidence you can do it, like negative mass or energy.

But on the other hand, even with some basic life extension and STL travel you can get pretty fucking far. You just have to forgo any backwards communication. A relatively short hop means no one you knew is alive on Earth when you get to your destination, and by the time you get one two way communication out you might as well be civilizational strangers.
But that doesn't mean that such a trip isn't worth doing.

Are you sure? You're talking about spending trillions of dollar to shoot frozen people into deep space.

Now apply that concept to your whole planet in the cold dark of the void except there is no cop and there is no morning ever coming. Speaking out is putting a giant signal above your head saying
