I like to destroy a lot of the environment in Earth Defense Force 2025 even though it's unnecessary.

I talk to every npc and read every sign in RPGs I've played a hundred times.
Because it feels like getting the "complete experience" as if the game is somehow tracking me not doing those things.

Lately I've been playing a VR shooter with a realistic reload system.
You've got 4 spare mags, and if you reload you lose all the remaining bullets in a mag.
So you have to be careful not to waste your mags by reloading too often, but without being so stingy you run out of bullets when it counts.
And if your gun is empty you have to pull the charging handle to chamber the first round, but there's no good way to know if your gun is empty or not unless you actually run out of bullets while shooting. I often just shoot a couple bullets after a reload to be sure my gun is working.
It's really tricky.

i like to save/quicksave at fun moments so i can look at the thumbnails in the loading screen

>>715926382
Agreed
Shift = Jump
Ctrl = Crouch
Space = Sprint
I hate how game devs have all decided on SpaceJump and ShiftSprint. Always have to flip them.

>>715926879
I rarely rebind the controls to move the characters, Sin & Punishment was the exception.

Forgotten about after five minutes, likely sold for pocket change when I'm trying to buy something later down the line.
Same goes for debuff items as well, typically. DoT-causers get a pass as that's my favorite strategy anyway and I can actually incorporate those into it.

>>715925428
Holy shit I know exactly what this feels like. It makes leveling alts in MMOs very painful.

>>715926893

always helps to make extra sure you save and didnt somehow get distracted and blank out and hallucinate that you actually saved since that action is so routine you might think you did it when you didnt
i think one time when i was a kid i had to do something right as i opened the save menu, probably got something to snack on or something, then came back to my room and figured i must have saved and then continued played and then game over'd at something just after and lost like 2 hours of progress
i think it was ff12

>>715926698
>"realistic reload"
>you lose the bullets in the mag on reload
not realistic
you'd swap mags to another and keep the bullets from the old mag

how the hell would losing the bullets be realistic?
does the character just dump the fucking thing on the ground?
do you have some weird infinite supply of mags and just toss the old ones into the void?
seems very not realistic

>>715926026
I do that, except I don't cheat. If there's a limited resource like a permanent buff candy, a rare full heal or a one use nuke attack I just don't use it as a self imposed mini challenge. It's like collecting trophies.
If I make a game I want to put in a secret at the end that requires sacrificing all the super rare bonus stat potions to enter.

I wish there's more RTS out there where you can find hidden items like in Red Alert, Warcraft 3 and Rise and Fall Civilizations at War.

>>715926802
I like inverted on third person and default camera controls in first person (though most first person games I'd just prefer to use mouse, stick + gyro is pretty nice for whatever supports it). Inverted makes sense when controlling a physical camera, but in first person when I want to look up my stick and eyes go up; the weird concept of "stick on the back of your head" to justify inverted in first person is idiotic

On RPG's, I look up guides online to see how to permanently raise my attributes. I make a note of that and plan my game on acquiring all of them.
In Fallout games, I purposely made low intelligence characters and raise my int attribute with Mentats before talking to quest givers because you have to be reasonably intelligent to acquire quests.

>>715925179
I turned off AA because I prefer being drunk.

>>715942739
I hate this shit. As soon as I stop using those items I have a voice in my brain nagging me about all the gold/XP im missing out on because im not using them.

Achievement hunting in general. Getting into that really flipped a switch in my brain and now I can't play a game without them.

Also I always conquer the whole map in a total war campaign.

>>715925095 (OP)
Any game that has an upgrade that improves how much xp is gained from certain tasks becomes my main goal until I get it. For me the game doesn't even feel like it has started until I have this upgrade and everything before it is just busywork. This mentality has destroyed several games for me and has made me miss out on a heap of early game upgrades that would have made my life significantly easier.

In Elite Dangerous, I sometimes talk to an imaginary crew as if I were a captain in star trek, barking out commands for each action and saying corny one-liners after tense situations. A shame that game doesn't have interactive crew and interiors on its larger ships.

>>715945361
Yeah, feels like there is a lack of medieval city builders that aren't Banished or Banished-clone.

All shooters need Valve-style reloading where you always auto-reload when not shooting but there's no delay when you interrupt your reload.

>>715945010
City builders have zero defense aspects to them. They're too tranquil. It's just enjoyable to create a thriving bastion while also maximizing unit/building defense autism.

>>715945845
why even have a reload at that point if it has no actual effect on gameplay? what a retarded thing to say

I HATE character customization.

I'll always go with the generic "John [GAME]" character if available, and if they don't have that I'll just spam random a predetermined number of times and go with that.

Also I can't stand having to name my character, and will either roll a random name if you can in-game or search online for an in-universe name generator and pick from those instead

>>715925095 (OP)
The best way to discourage this is to have ammunition exist in discrete magazines. I don't think any game has done an ammo pool like that, though, because then you'd have to program in a means of reloading magazines.

>>715925095 (OP)
This is why you should turn on dump unused bullets whenever there is an option to.

>>715947356
In bf4 on hardcore mode you just dump the magazine and lose the unused ammo.

When I was a kid I was at the end of MegaMan Battle Network 5. Like at the least dungeon, but I was on a road trip, so just for fun I started a new game and played through the intro. And out of habit I saved. I overwrote my save from the end of the game and just sat there for like 30 seconds completely still, just wondering how I fucked up so bad. Never beat that game.

The fuck? How do you fuck that up? Do you not use Mouse4 and Mouse5 on a daily basis as forward/back in your browser?

>>715951457
irl dexterity issue, hope you get better soon. I can't imagine playing games without mouse4/mouse5 anymore. Setting sprint to mouse4 changed my life.

>>715949792
well thats just sad

>>715951560
yes well, i use m4. as i said, i don't use m5, nor have i ever had use for it. i think i can safely disregard your opinion because you somehow need shortcuts for your browser which is very funny.

I droppes both Neverwinter Nights at the final boss because I got bored trying to beat them. In fact the first game I couldn't even do the final dungeon because the enemies have such a jump in difficulty and I was a clueless pre-teen who had never played a proper RPG before

>>715951991

Bellwright probably has the best eating system of any open world surivival crafter. It has 3 slots for foods, food give you different health/stamina increases but also different health/stamina regens. So cooked meat might give you more health and smoked might be better for stamina. But most foods also have secondary buffs that are active the whole time, some will increase exp gain, some increase crafting speed or lower the rate you get hungry again.
You can ignore these buffs if you like and just eat what seems good you wont really be missing out on anything, but if you want to autistically min/max you can do.
And villagers you recruit also benefit in the same way.

because you still need to reload when youre at zero? most weapons atleast in tf2 are single shot reloads and if they arent then they either have a very low clip or long reload

I'm the opposite, I love character customization and will spend hours tweaking everything to my liking and researching what weapons and skills I would imagine my character using and sticking to that in any game I can.
Saints Row was great for me because every Boss I've made has a preference for different cars, guns, clothes, radio stations and more so every playthrough feels unique for me.

I still won't replay p5 and couldn't get past the first dungeon in p5r because so much of the game is just a rehash of the same shit from the original.

could be interesting to have a max mags instead of max bullets
once you take a mag out (if it's not empty) you put it in your pocket with the rest. then, later, during some downtime between fights you can just idly have your guy take half-used mags out one by one and take the bullets from some and put them in others so you have as many completely full ones as possible
if you DO end up having to put the half-used ones back in in an emergency, that could fuck you over.
if you find a new full mag but already have max mags in your pockets you can drop the least-full one

would be super autistic but if the game is made with that in mind it could provide some neat constraints, which could make it easier to make clearly-different guns
I like when the various guns you get FEEL really different

the bonus exp nodes are either complete garbage because you have to spend exp skill points to unlock them, meaning it'll basically never pay itself off

Did you even read the thread

>>715972620
Do you not understand the implication of why this bothers me? Do you need me to explain to you?

>>715926867

>need to check back all previous areas and npc after every single mission in fear of missing small changes
AAAAAAAAAAActually it was fun

>>715972714
That's not autism

>>715946245
it's the opposite for me. not really in a crippling way but there's a chance i'll go out of my way to search for a vanity item if i think it looks cool.

terraria's got quote's hat from cave story as an item and i tried farming for that once. it has a 0.4 chance to drop from piranhas, which is kinda strange, but i wanted that thing anyway.

>>715972782
Okay retard here's the same post again for you.
>have to check the entire map before moving on
>the path that looks like a sidepath is actually the main path and a point of no return

>>715972854
It's a bit of a stretch desu wa

>>715973002
You're a perfect fit for an autism thread.

>>715973032
That's why I'm here

>>715972047
but they all come back in the end...

I am going to make a JRPG game where consumables are restored at the end of every battle (or perhaps via some other common way), but are very rare to obtain and can only be used X amount of times per battle. Does this sound appealing to fellow Elixirhoarders? I will try and balance it so you need to use them of course

>>715973352
aren't you supposed to split your characters in three parties and fight bosses with them separately until just before kefka?

>>715973547
Oh I thought you meant pre-ruin when people kept joining and leaving. I autistically grinded for Ultima and high level spells for 12 characters.

>>715926893
Elden Ring did not have a crafting system yes.

>>715973535
yes, story level caps too
if you restore party resources after a battle, including hp and mana, this mean you can have more meaningful battles instead of those random encounter spam attack attrition snoozefests
it's fun when you have to go all out for every fight because the game pulls no punches and it knows exactly how powerful you are heading into a battle

>>715960176
Damn

>>715973856
I thought it was very fun to go and get everyone back, but I couldn't bother doing what you spoilered (i know you don't have to go that far), fuck that. let me plow through everything with my favorite characters.

>>715971370
normal human bean

>>715967790
I beat the soulsborne franchise without using a single weapon modifier consumable because of that. It's like, ok I can use the lightning resin for an attempt, get my shit rocked, and lose it when there's like 5 in the game. Or I can just get gud and not rely on some paltry buff that's not going to make or break the fight

>>715925179
This isn't autistic, this is called being a man of culture and taste.

>>715973942
I only ever used the crafting system once and it was to make rot and bleed pots to give to my mimic for a no fragment fight of the second to last boss of the DLC. I forgot it even existed until that point when I was looking for any advantage.

>>715973943
Health/resources won't restore. Abilities can be used but can only be restored during battle. Still working on how the levelling system will work. Probably thinking of tying some stats to equipment and events.

It's going to be a Mother (1) style RPG with Undertale/Deltarune (maybe SMT) inspired battles. I need to figure out how to make it fun, fun is the most important part.

I immediatly spam cc/debuffs at bosses/mini bosses/elite enemies to see if it's yet another game where that stuff is useless or actually viable

>>715925095 (OP)
If an inconsequential NPC dies I reload and save them
I don't let any NPCs die
Fuck the vampire attacks in dawnguard

>>715975450
I was playing Oblivion for the first time earlier this year and kept reloading to save every single NPC that could be. I even paused and looked up the wiki to make sure it was scripted. When playing Look Outside recently, I also ensured not to kill anyone or get anyone killed after being a bit too late at the start...

>>715926382
C is toggle crouch
Ctrl is crouch lower

>>715945010
Because they always have shit RTS elements

>>715925179
i agree in general, even putting games aside. that pixelated crispy MS paint shit in drawings or animations activates something in my brain.

>>715975450
I tried in Undead Nightmare but by the time I doubled back on my horse since I was going full gallop the npc already turned it pissed me off

>>715925095 (OP)
I take lot of screenshots and keep lot of saves on console so when I die people can see what I went through and check out the most memorable moments

No, I have no friends nor relatives.

>>715926893
They do, but the thing is they just end up occupying my inventory until the very end of the game. I rarely have a need to use them because the game creates their scenarios for people who don't have those items in hand so most players aren't softlock.

They become inventory hogs. I sometimes use them just because I have them and might as well just use it.

>>715925095 (OP)
I won't use my favorite weapon until I fully upgrade it. I'll beat every enemy for 5 minutes with a rusty shitsword +3 while having a Ancient Bloody Dragonbane Greatsword +9 in my inventory because I want that +10 upgrade to enjoy its full performance.
I will replay a boss fight 50 times because I want to beat the boss with style, slicing him one-sidedly in 15 seconds. I can beat it in 2-3 tries if I play carefully and defensively, but I don't want to.

>>715967937
MMOs are different because everyone is expected to use consumables, stop being a disingenuous retard.

>>715977831
Let me have my moment of edginess! I waited hours for a reply and it sucked .w.

>>715963161
Some games have an indicator that tell you you've read everything that npc has to say. I like those

>>715971229
Yeah, my biggest issue with the game was using bamboo shoots as healing potions in my decks and then if I had to pause the game and go talk to my mom they'd turn into bamboo spears.

>>715966809
The tower defense genre arose from someone playing Starcraft or AOE like this and wanting to make it as a separate game.

>>715930527
>Open new game
>after adjusting settings, I close the game and open task manager to see how long it actually takes to close
There's some weird ones that sometimes take a full minute or more to actually clear itself from the tasks. Abiotic Factor started doing that after the hydro update.

Absolute dogshit.

In FF7 original certain NPCs in towns change dialogue at certain times.
Not all NPCs though.

Drives me fucking crazy.

>>715925191
you frighten me

>win fight
>lose in cutscene
>close game and uninstall

When I play open world games, if there is a quest objective across the map, i have to slowly sweep across the map and discover/clear every single location on the way there

>spamming jumps to proceed into level, you don't even go faster or anything

>see nigger npc
>uninstall and refund

>>715986309
I did this in fallout 3 on PS3 and found that the game crashed more often when doing it. I didn't stop I just saved more.
