>What the heck is this
/indie/ is the general for all indie games, such as Age of Decadence, A Hat in Time, Axiom Verge, Baba Is You, Battle Brothers, Card City Nights 2, Cave Story, Civilization, CrossCode, Cultist Simulator, Darkest Dungeon, Darkwood, DashBored, Dead Cells, The Desolate Hope, Disco Elysium, Environmental Station Alpha, FTL, Hollow Knight: Silksong, Knytt, LISA, Lobotomy Corp, Loop Hero, Machinarium, Middens, Monolith, Monster Train, Noita, OFF, OneShot, Rimworld, Rain World, Slay the Spire, Starsector, Subnautica, Sunless Skies, Underrail, VA-11 HALL-A, Yume Nikki, etc., as well as other games that just don't fit in any other general such as Atelier, Pillars of Eternity, Rayman, and Valkyria Chronicles. /jrpg/ is welcome. Idle, roguelite, shmup, 4x / RTS / city-builders, and RPGMaker games are cool too.

Mobile or consoles, Flash or Unity, freeware or early access. This place is a home for the indie game community and indie and obscure games that don't have a home. So be free to talk and share all your hidden gems, forgotten games and starving devs here.

>Can I talk about games that already have a general?
We mostly discuss games that are not popular enough for their own threads, however, all indie games are allowed. So talk about them if you want, but don't overdo it since you already have other generals for that.

Any game that makes you write spread sheets that aren't Factorio or Eve Online?

>>526689130 (OP)
any of you remember playing a flash game about a tv that could swing around like spider man using its electric cable?

It is not safe to exit the pod.

>>526690556
This is why I always have a gun on me.

See if you can solve this to complete both objectives and take no grid damage. Took me a full 20 minutes but I got there. Will post the solution a bit later already fucked up the run and lost it on the next island.
The Highlighted (right) mech shoots a shell that pierces and pushes the first enemy, then does the same +3 damage to the next thing it hits.
The middle mech can swap the positions of any two units on the battlefield other than itself, but it has to be laterally next to one of them to do it. Three tile move range.
The left mech fires a remote controlled bomb unit to the selected tile that you can then move around and detonate, dealing 1 damage to all units laterally. Both three tile move range.
Lowest enemy has 1hp, the wasps have 2 each, top enemy has 3hp. They each deal 1 damage. The wasps have 1 attack range, the other two have infinite range in a straight line.

So what does /indie/ think about the OFF prologue?

>>526693718
too hard I'm going on break

>>526693718
>>526700321
Wish I'd thought to add the indicators for tiles like with chess, but thinking of the far left corner as A1:
>Lobber to D4, fires a bomb down to D6
>Swapper to D3, swaps the Lobber with the right hand Wasp
>Penetrator to B4, shoots the first Wasp into the second Wasp that hits the frozen building, leaving the first Wasp on 1hp
>Bomb moves between the two 1hp enemies, blows them up
>Swapper bodyblocks the shot from the top enemy

>>526702220
Any damage. Enemies also take damage from being shoved into inanimate objects or each other, it's worth noting.

This almost looked like exactly the perfect game for me ATM, but then you find out it's incomplete, schizo, furry shit. Fuck. Back to the drawing board.......

>>526732365
yeah furfaggots need to die.

>>526724958
Are you thinking of 4 to 5? Pretty sure 5 already had that.

Been playing Monster Train 2. It feels like such a perfect sequel in many ways, I actually worry a little for StS2 since this raised the bar and I don't think spires sequel is going to live up to it. Deployment phase fixes almost every problem with MT1. The fact that all the old clans and exiled champs just show up out of nowhere is the cherry on top.

Fuck you

>>526733873
My only complaint is I wish rooms and equipment got legit upgrade options, being deployable is only useful if you have excess ember, and combining equipment is useful but fairly luxury option. I'm guessing there's just not enough of them to really justify it, hopefully they add more, especially for old clans.

I wanna play Wayward Realms NOW.

He did initially but not so much nowadays

I'm gonna go look for some screenshots of his escapades so I can share some lols here, I swear to God I'm not making this shit up

>>526712862
Workers and resources is pretty obtuse.

>>526732365
what are your issues with it other than it being furshit?
there are easily 50+ hours of gameplay right now if you're worried about content

Almost pirated Hades until I found out they race swapped a bunch of characters for no reason.

>>526737880
I thought that demo was a EA thing. How long until it's out?

>>526741971
NTA but it is extremely brutal and RNG dependent

I like anthos so that's the only reason I bothered to check it out, I don't consider myself a furry through cause they're all mega degenerates

Goodbye. Good FUCKING BYE, I am DONE!!! FUCK ALL OF THIS!

>>526747739
it plays differently compared to most roguelites, there's no set gear progression because you can get any item right from the beginning of any run which makes it very varied
but there's also crafting that allows you to get the essentials from common materials found everywhere until you upgrade them for something worthy. it's not great, but it's good enough to keep you going until then.
it is hard as fuck though, and that's one of the reasons why it's great

Worst case nobody will reply or someone will call you names

>>526768714
it doesn't have a general on /vg/ but you should be aware that it does have a general on /vst/, though games that only have a general on /vst/ are often discussed here without controversy

Damn, I've definitely hit one of the grindy parts of Fallen London.
Gotta beat my head against the preparation for the duel, but my chances aren't too good, so I keep getting wounds, which I need to slowly heal by going back to the Dept. of Menace Eradication to earn some gold to pay the doctor. And all of this eats away at my action cap in minutes.
I'm wondering if it would be smarter to do some easier checks to level up my Dangerous, but it feels like a waste of time, since easier tasks give less XP

Cool thanks. A shame 80% of this board is just shitty generals of the same reskinned gachaslop. Despite /vmg/ being a thing.
Anyway I never played Warband and I was having a lot of fun with Bannerlord until I reached clan tier 3 in 9 years and realized there was nothing left to do other than a rinse of repeat of map painting and boring inventory management. Sons take way too fucking long to grow up leaving you with the same 5 companions for the whole playthrough.
Also I have the impression that the devs actively hate their fanbase. Starting from the useless patches completely killing the thriving modding community to a DLC that adds fucking boats instead of improving the core gameplay.

>>526770416
>shame 80% of this board is just shitty generals of the same reskinned gachaslop. Despite /vmg/ being a thing
I think the worst part about it, is how it brings less active threads like this to the brink of being bumped off when there are stretches with less activity.
Never played Bannerlords so can't talk with you about the rest of your post.

>>526766058
It's !notwh40K. So you will get other kind of space elves.

>>526770416
Anime has always been a thing on here since the site's beginning, gacha is just the next evolution, shitty as it is.

>>526775284
yeah 2d sidescrollers are the special prevleged child of the indie sphere getting lots of the praise when they all end up feeling samey. We complain about gatchaslop yet there's hundreds of 3d Indies and AA's out there. It's gotten so old, I've started to ignore 2d games and boomer shooters cause they're so oversaturated.

Can't ever have enough electrical substations

>>526770416
>Starting from the useless patches completely killing the thriving modding community
Wait, what did they do?
>to a DLC that adds fucking boats instead of improving the core gameplay.
They added boats finally? They were a thing from Warband. They also got meme'd to hell back when I played ("WHEN BOTES?") because the devs were basically doing jack shit for updates except minor bigfixes and shit like that. I last played 5 years ago and decided to put it down until they'd actually added some shit.
I kinda wanna come back and roleplay as Battanians, but I also don't wanna bother unless the game's more functional than it was back in 2020.

>>526780675
>Wait, what did they do?
As you said 10 years of shitty minor bugfixes and useless crap like weather and minor balance changes. Despite that there is still a huge modding community that could make the game even better if Taleworlds just fucked off.
>They added boats finally?
It's a DLC. Should've come out this month but it was pushed back. Also adding the Nords as a new faction and some random shit to the base game like stealth and crouching.

>>526750731

>invisible walls

>>526733873
>The fact that all the old clans and exiled champs
I really didnt expect this. I figured they make us use the new champs
I also like that there's only 10 covenants in MT2 compared to 25, really cuts down on grind

>>526770416
Gachaslop are all kept up by unironic paid shills, one protip to easily distinguish legit threads from shilling ones is the OP pic, 99% of times if its a lewd/echi pic its almost insured to be a shill OP since its a blueboard that should be sfw but they get given a free pass, probably due to bribery.

>>526793564
Also forgot to add that another red flag is if they keep the thread numbered, they do that so its easier to search specific archived threads for data mining and customer research.

>>526793780
>if they keep the thread numbered, they do that so its easier to search specific archived threads for data mining and customer research

Is that why that degenerate incest fap bait game gets a number? I forget what it's called, coffin of Andy and idk.

Worse then the gatchaslop, I hope the devs get killed

>>526770074
>which I need to slowly heal by going back to the Dept. of Menace Eradication to earn some gold to pay the doctor
you can buy healing potions at the bazaar
so long as you're not posi they're pretty good, after that they're kinda rubbish
same with nightmares and suspicion
depending on how you feel your best gain rates are checks just below 90 or, for more menaces but a bit more stats, under 60
or below 40 but at that point menaces tend to become a pain in the ass

If you are a hollow turd fan and want wannabe souls again then no it's not good. It's about exploring, figuring out what the fuck exactly is happening there and planting a lot.

>>526799408
I have to agree. It's not even high medieval realism with plated drip but a low medieval setting with chainmails and goofy helmets. Then again there are mods for that, even some overhauls that will turn the game into GoT or Warhammer. Which is why I'm so anal about the devs breaking them with useless patches.
Unfortunately there is no game that scratches the Mount and Blade itch combining battle simulations, RPG mechanics and a kingdom simulator.

I really liked the vibe, the looks, the non-linear progression, the secrets and the RPG elements.
But I also hated that 2/3 endings are complete dogshit, the unbalanced spell and ranged combat system, the agility stat that increases your walking speed, and the main characters being furries and anime.
If the dev was not a faggot it could have been 9/10, so do any of you have any suggestions?
>just play kingsfield
All the old fromsoft game emulators lack proper mouse support which makes their controls feel kind of shit on PC. I tried Shadow Tower Abyss 2 and quit after defeating the second boss because of the awful camera controls.

>>526930312

THAT'S TWO TIMES THIS FUCKING HAPPENED NOW

>>526931005
I tried Morrowind, but then quit because the gameplay was not that fun. In my experience I just went around trying to find healing potions because there was no other way of healing, and found out that the first two settlements have in total like 5 healing potions. Then I asked friend and he told me the only way to play the game is to spec into alchemy and make your own potions. I decided then to stop playing because I don't want to play a game that you have to read wiki about and plan your build before you even start. Sure I like when the game does not hold your hands, but looking up most optimal skills on a wiki just to play the first few hours seems kind of too much for me as someone who likes to play games blind and learn from errors on the same savefile.

>>526936054
you heal by resting
you heal with restoration magic
you heal with enchanted items
I don't know what to tell you but I didn't need to read wiki to build a character

>>526937912
Weird, because when I tried to rest, I only restored stamina. I was playing on my friend's PC so maybe he had some hardcore mods or something because I remember that I needed to rest to be able to sprint again, but still walked third of the world map on 1/6th of the health.

>>526939856
in vanilla you regain health by resting. you can rest almost anywhere, including dungeons full of hostile creatures
there's normally an "until healed" button in the rest menu

Look it's (you)

>>526936054
I couldn't get into Morrowind either Anon, I'm no stranger to old games but Morrowind felt so, idk, stunted? Over ambitious for its time? Obtuse? Felt as if it came out 5 years too early, hard to put my finger on while I exactly didn't like it

Oddly enough I enjoyed Daggerfall more thinking about it

>>526693718
I love this game, but man I've had a single bugbear about it for the longest fucking time time and I really wish they'd changed it with Advanced Edition.
Pilots.

I want the last instance of any given pilot I chose to save, to actually stay saved. That's it.
What I mean by that is I want to be able to switch my Kai Miller or Mafan or whoever else for Gana or another pilot, without losing the saved moveset of the previous pilot if I want to keep them. Getting the right two skills on a pilot takes half an hour if I'm lucky and it just really discourages me from trying different pilot combos or new things, because I don't want to lose the guy I put a bunch of work into getting the right skills for. It's frustrating.

>>526930312
So, again, any more suggestions aside from Morrowind? Perhaps something modern but larping as retro, like Lunacid? There is no way there is only Lunacid

>>526958285
maybe system shock

>>526947891
>FAST ASS

>>526958285
system shock had a remake that's 95% accurate to the original dos version in terms of how it plays, mechanics, and so on. I played through the original system shock "enhanced' (basically just making it play on modern systems) and you can pull the strategy guides from like 1995-1996 for everything from map layout to item locations to weapon stats. The stuff the remake added was positive- a better inventory (cell based as opposed to this weird list), weapon mods, item recycling for money (pick up trash items to sell basically), and some minor map changes to better suit the fact 3d room over room stuff is actually much more viable. Even added a thing where if items fall out of the map from wonky physics, there's a lost and found I think on the maintenance deck that'll house it because maintenance drones found it weird it was floating outside.

Sonar Shock is like a straight rip of the mechanics from system shock 95, but modern. Give that a look too.

this is a whole general dedicated to memegames, we know they're shit

I got some bad takes from my brother.
Disco elysium is "pro-abortion propaganda". The communist are actually fascist (so he joined them), he did not like that the game made fun of fascist with gary (he's the only fascist he met), the moralist and ultraliberals are actually communist, rene is a communist because he's black and "friend with a jew" (gaston??), henry is the reincarnation of dolores dei's husband and also dolores dei herself as a symbolic representation of the holy trinity with kim as "another aspect of dolores dei's life", he saw the game as a metaphorical retelling of the story of jesus christ superstar with a bit too much "homosexual propaganda" for his liking. He really did not like getting punished for taking drugs or drinking. He still rated the game a 7/10.

>>526993160
is your bother by chance, a utter loser junkie who you hoped would realize he needs to fix his shit by experiencing disco elysium?

>>526993730
No, he's a loser who is actively ruining our country by falling upward no matter how incompetent he is. I did not talk to him about disco elysium, he found out on his own and gave me his bad takes on his own.

>>526994093
can you ask him how the fuck disco elysium is pro-abortion propaganda? the only mention of abortion I remember is the dream ex telling harry she's glad he aborted his kid. which is in no way a good thing

>>526994205
Because poverty, cuno, cunoesse, your ex, the claire twins, the mercenaries story. Basically he sees poverty, disabilities and man made tragedies as pro abortion propaganda. He sees harry as the bad guy of the story (which is one of his only arguably good takes), also his ex doesn't exist and it's all hallucinations of harry's past life as dolores dei. His main evidence is the phone call you can make to your ex which to him proves that she never existed in the first place. Nevermind the fact that you can literally ask your former friends and colleagues about your ex. So since harry is the bad guy and dolores dei has a glowing "womb" (it was her lungs but whatever) and aborted her child, it means that the "jesus" of that world is pro abortion. Nevermind the fact she is pregnant with another man's child in that very scene.
Basically cherry picking and general "silent hill circumcision" insanity.

>>526995358
I think you should kill your brother.

>>526995358
Who's your brother's dealer? They're slinging some good shit, I want in.

this game and this webm are made by the kind of person who jerks off to fluffy pony comics

What is this starbound-looking furry game you've been playing for weeks? Looks safe-edgy as fuck.

>>526999020
Gunsaw, made by the same dude who made the 2d survival one in the same style that people sometimes discuss

the op of that gif seems like a crazed gore fapper or a child who thinks it's funny though

>>526993160
>He really did not like getting punished for taking drugs or drinking
fuck does he mean punished? the stat boosts from them are insane
the health hits, i guess? that's pretty nothing

>>527002326
Punished by his peers for being drunk on the job. He doesn't like that Kim and Jean call him out for drinking and doing drugs.

>>527003379
sounds like he hated it when it got too close to his lifestyle

Said I'd try the Big Catch a thread or two back, didn't like it initially but I've mellowed out.
Put about 7 hours into it, overall it's good, keep coming back to it, not sure I'll 100% the demo but I def still got some playtime left

But holy shit, this game is brutal, you'll be trying again and again and again and AGIAN on certain area's, like the absolute gauntlet you run to get up to this area. I feel like it's so much, wall running is the worst, your character drops like a rock.

Give it a try Anons, if you're in the mood for another 3D platformer demo check out Glyde the Dragon, far more Spyro inspired but it scratches the itch.

>>527008745
Never play xcom

>>527009326
idk about fallen london but a lot of reported failures in XCom are due to the fact that the game saves the random seed and people are surprised that reloading doesn't allow their failed check to work

>>527009326
but its got that snake lady in it
thats all I know about it but snakes are cool
and ladies are cool

>>527010091
it has what's called streakbreaker code I believe. If you're doing too well, the game forces you to miss shots. If you're doing badly, you'll land ones you have no reason to land. It also works for enemies, though. I've had rocket launchers go at 90 degree angles sideways to off my teammates in the tutorial because none of the other shots missed, and a sniper that never ever landed shots unless they were completely impossible and would result in saving someone's life.

Also, don't play xcom unless you pirate it, it's published by 2k and their EULA has updated so that they can harvest data at root level, and if you use a VPN to screw with the physical location tracking it's considered abuse so they can ban your account from playing it. Modding is also considered a form of cheating so enjoy your ban.

>>527012656
>If you're doing too well, the game forces you to miss shots. If you're doing badly, you'll land ones you have no reason to land
That sounds like one of the worst mechanics ever conceived.

>>527012656
Eggscome needs an account now?

>>527012796
You forgot that it applies to enemies, meaning if they're doing poorly (IE-you're doing well), they'll land stupidly impossible shots. This is not just bad luck, it is actual design because the devs concluded having it be normal was too easy.
it also keeps the failures/success stored per save, so you can't savescum either. If you try again in a different way it'll still count as a miss. I'm pretty sure there's mods to remove them, but it's been a while, I forget which ones they'd be in.

>>527013279
>You forgot that it applies to enemies
No, I'm aware. That's just dreadful game design either way.
Building your game around dice and then constantly(secretly) loading the dice is horrible. It makes all the rolls feel meaningless whether it's a genuine roll or not.
These people should never have made a game in the first place if that's true.

Motherfucker!

>>527013248
check the reviews on steam to see the fun bits. It's worse than installing epic games store.

>>527013858
Fucking 2K. First Civ, now this.

>>527012656
What? I have literally never heard of that. Only that the game fudges the dice rolls in YOUR favor on easier difficulties, and it's plainly editable in the game files. And I'm pretty sure the tutorial is entirely scripted, all hits and misses are predetermined. Unless you mean the intro mission when the tutorial is turned *off*, in which case it's a completely normal mission.
Also, why would they consider modding a bannable offense if there's a robust modding SDK and integrated Workshop support? But other than that you are correct, pirate only, their launcher is an absolute shitheap.

>>527014459
Nope, the rocket in the tutorial can and does miss occasionally, makes taking out the ones in the far building take a lot longer. I laughed a little when it took out my teammate on my first run with the blast, which is where I put the game down for like a year before coming back to it.

as for modding, it can interfere with the data collection (IE- remove it with a mod) which is the only reason the EULA update exists. It also contains forced arbitration clauses so when they sell your data (also part of the EULA that they're allowed to sell everything they collect), you have no legal recourse. Hell, they can even collect your chat data from MP and use it to sell you stuff you might be interested in.

>>527015096
also remember this isn't just for xcom, it's for ALL 2k published games. Borderlands, Bioshock, Civ, even fucking Duke Nukem. Funnily enough from earlier in the thread, Spec Ops: The Line as well. So no really big losses I guess, but the important part is its all encompassing across the publisher so make sure you clean up your shit.

>>527012656
Can't remember what game it was, but I've heard of one that lies about it's hit percentages, because people are shit intuiting probabilities, so it nudges the numbers in your favor in the background

Should I play factorio or rf3? I'd play rf goa but I don't feel like paying 70€ right now.

Jagex is not doing well it seems. Bunch of firing, their newest game lost most of the dev team, event cancel, official private server canned.

I'm about 1 hour in the new rune factory and I already like it a lot. It's different from the rest of the series but the farming is much better than 5 and it has some really good control and art direction.

Replaying Witcher 3 and I gotta say, the treasure hunt armor recipe collection quests have got to be my least favorite.

>games stoped being fun again

>>527165262
I've been stuck a rut like this too, where I'll boot up steam but not feel motivated to actually start a game and just scroll away on here or YouTube, by the time I'm done it's bedtime.

However, I think I'm starting to feel motivated again, and it's partially because I'm trying a bunch of new vidya. I've been on a 3d platformer kick for the first time in over a decade, I posted >>527004015 on my PC and while I thought it was flawed, I still got close to 10 hours satisfyingly out of a free demo.
I got others I wanna play too, Gecko Gods is a puzzle platformer that's demo came out during next fest that looks fun, and I highly recommend that Glyde game I mentioned in my linked post.

So Anon, the TL:DR is to just find something outside of your comfort zone that looks interesting and play.
Sure you're making a bigger backlog, but who's to say you won't stur up more motivation to clear that out too?

Anyone here tried Corru.Observer?

>>527180062

>>527179891
>just scroll away on here or YouTube, by the time I'm done it's bedtime
Exactly
I've gotten really into Witcher 3 recently, but put that on hold today because I'm also reading the books and I'm getting into territory where I might spoil myself on the latter so I'll wait until I'm done.
So now I'm back to not really knowing what to play.
Usually a small break goes a long way for me.
Though
>TL:DR is to just find something outside of your comfort zone
is a nice take too. Maybe combined with a break, who knows.

*burp*

Gunvein any good?

>>527182000
I jump into retro stuff occasionally, find weird things that just don't apply to nowadays games. Arx Fatalis (after the community patch) has a shockingly good magic system, letting you cast basically anything at any time without having to access a menu. You can figure out higher tier spells without aid by just experimenting with runes, because they're phrases in the language of magic. So create fire will light your campfires and torches, create fire projectile does what it says on the tin.

The Crusader: No remorse has a bizarre control scheme but once you figure it out, it's great. Every room turns into a puzzle on how to best murder your enemies.

That game you’re describing sounds a lot like SOMA from Frictional Games.

>you come across text logs and audio diaries scattered across terminals, PCs, and emergency devices—many of them documenting the personal and romantic dramas among the crew.
>as you explore blind (using your scanner/helmet to identify surroundings), you slowly realize that almost everyone else is either dead, fused into machinery, or gone entirely.
The relationship drama subplot woven into those logs is a major theme, and the isolation fits your description exactly.

>>527215661
thank you for asking grok anon but its not SOMA

I'm getting into slay the spire and I'm running into an issue with bosses where the only way I can beat them is save scumming and it feels bad. What I mean is my build is technically capable but the deciding factor is just luck of the draw. Like maybe one turn I'll discard a damage card to get a defensive card to block an attack, but that affects the draw order and then 6 turns later the boss has 5hp left and kills me. If I save and quit the fight and do everything else the same way except I trade blows with him, then 6 turns later I kill him with 2hp left.
I understand it's a roguelike and the randomness is part of it but it really sucks to lose a run because "oops you had a 50/50 shot of drawing the card you needed but you didn't and you die now". It blows my mind to see people who have 50% win rates on A20 when I'm struggling on A9. I come from Risk of Rain 2 and I was pretty comfortable on E8 and when I lost I could look back and say "well I shouldn't have challenged that elite. Or I should have taken that red bull instead of that dagger". But when I lose in spire it's just "oh I shouldn't have taken that one card 45 minutes ago because in act 2 I could've got an upgraded version and smithed something else"

>>527212719

I just took the opportunity to see if the AI would get it right. I actually wanted to create a thread about it (AI trying to guess games based on description) on /v/ for a good while, but it'll probably die in less than 20, so i can't be bothered. Other names AI-chan spew out:
>Still Wakes the Deep
>Under the Waves
>Silt
Though the AI recognize there are missing elements from the description in all of these games.

>>527215785
In his defense I also immediately thought of Soma but it didn't make sense with "blind" thing. Also Iron Lung but that doesn't have what anyone would call "AI image recognition" either

>>527216450
Didn't realize there'd be competition in finding a specific one in this niche type of game haha

What goes bump in the night? Why, /indie/ of course, externally overshadowed by gatcha slop since forever :(

>>527244503
Eternally*

Holy shit I can't even bump right today

I've played the new rune factory for 7 hours and I can say that it's pretty good though it's very much a spinoff rather than a proper rune factory. It's much more action oriented and a lot of the more farming game aspect are simplified. So it's more "Guardian of Azuma: A Rune Factory story" rather than "Rune Factory: Guardian of Azuma". It's still much better than 5, it's not a very good starting point for the series though.

Bump

Got side-tracked by another game but I'm back to playing cyber-knight. Still in the early game but the pacing feels on the slower side. New harder mission types, longer story events and new mechanics like head hunters crashing my missions keep getting trickled in so it feels like I'm still on a tutorial despite how developed my characters are. I do appreciate that the stealth system isn't just a binary stealth/loud if I get detected and don't dispose of an enemy in that turn, but instead it more just pushes up the clock before they send big enough reinforcements or additional defenses that I've practically lost the missions. All the classes feel good too, well except for the sniper. It still does good work but with how bad some maps are in terms of line of sight and when there are far superior stealth options(3 other classes have a way to hide or outright dispose of bodies) the damage doesn't feel like it does enough to justify the opportunity cost outside of actually fullblown combat missions. Might need to play around with multi-classing them

Wait, is it the crackling one? Iirc, in my case it was due to a conflict between two drivers, cant recall which ones exactly tho sorry.

I tired every fix under the sun until by some miracle I found a forum thread where some guy mentioned offhand that for him it was caused by some random minimap mod that I also had installed.

>>527292681
The 1.0 is a merely formality, lel, game already had full content a while ago. You can even read the "patch notes" to confirm it. Combat system is cool in theory, but ends up being too limited due to the grid where you attach skills and passives being 3x3 and the skill links are just horizontal/vertical, no diagonal. It was cheap on my currency, so I was satisfied by it, solid enough but definitely not something I'd say it's a must play for fans of dungeon crawlers. I'm disappointed the cheevos aren't retroactive.
You can check Steam reviews for a more in-depth explanation of the combat system. Dungeons are pretty simple and straight-forward, no real fancy gimmick or puzzles.

Jump Ship Demo with 3 friends is decent fun.
Looking forward to see what kind of content they'll have for the main game

Maybe it changes with experience but our playsession has been chaotic as fuck. Can't imagine this level of chaos being fun (or manageable) with absolute strangers.
>>527331529
Yeah, I'm an absolute sucker for any game that gives me realistic 6DOF movement and unfortunately this ain't it. It's very arcadey and at times wonky as fuck. I haven't flown the ship yet but watching my buddy do it looked like it'd be pretty simplistic.
It's a losing battle man, this type of realism probably just doesn't have the necessary mass appeal for devs to bother with it.

Got pic related on steam, and it's been enjoyable so far. Very cute artstyle, nice music, fun mechanics. Worth the pricetag IMO

>1.0 just dropped

are you ready for the the biggest bag posting of our time /indie/?

>>527348327
I really dislike how this backpack game (is there a name for these?) went for the "real" time PvP angle. I feel like the turn based stuff has more strategy, PvP makes the issue even worse, you never get to see what you're going up against so it's more like fancy rock paper scissors and hoping you chose the right counterplay items.

>>527349043
its about cramming up as much synergy as possible while getting as much vertical scaling as possible (getting better items as opposite of just increasing in quantity, because you run out of space).

>you never get to see what you're going up against so it's more like fancy rock paper scissors and hoping you chose the right counterplay items

while there are items to counter specific stuff, there is so many builds now and the skills add some diversification inside the builds themselves, I mean, builds don't focus on a single thing as hard as they did in the past, so this seems to be a non issue. I would point out the rng of the shop, if I wanted to complain about the rng, on high ranks you start going against builds who just had the most perfect curve and the right picks at right times, it gets ridiculous sometimes.

>>527350592
It's been a while since I've tried it out, so I'll trust you that build diversity has improved. I still feel like just having a preview of your next opponent would be a good idea, letting you set up actual counterplay and giving you a reason to keep powerful but niche items in your storage. Sort of like a sideboard, if you know MtG.

>>527301805
got me to dwell on if I wanted to actually dev.

>>527351313
wouldn't that make it way too easy? I mean, we are playing against "ghosts" of other players, just saved builds on their database, its not real time, so these builds don't have the chance to adapt against you, it seems a bit unfair.

>>527351872
Sorry yeah, forgot to add that I want it to be actual real time PvP. They can limit it to a certain bag or a number of swaps or whatever, I think having two people competing against each other is way more fun than fighting against what might as well be bots.

>>527351872
Also to elaborate a bit more, I understand the devs probably didn't go that route because they would need actual servers, which carries even more risk than other indies. This is just me rambling about personal preferences. I'll probably give the game another shot sometime anyway, the core idea is still fun.

While Void War doesn't have a mind control system, it does have mind control spells. Here's a tip: If your commander can teleport and gets mind controlled, make absolutely sure they didn't teleport onto the enemy ship right before it blows up. Pic unrelated, it's too early for Void War fanart to be a thing.

Is it fun to asphyxiate/burn people to death in the game?

For me it's just my wildly unrealistic ideas I get every now and then. But then realize that I don't have have the skills or patience to dev not even to mention marketing
I struggle even finishing my own little coding projects, can't imagine myself finishing a game, no matter how many cool concepts are locked in my head.
Plus I'm 100% convinced it's a case of vastly underestimating how hard it actually would be

>>527376982
Sorry to hear that.
I'm currently quite happy with my Logitec LIFT but I realize vertical mice aren't everyone's cup of tea

>>527384338
nta but barely any stores carry vertical mice so I haven't been able to find one to like :-[

>>527384470
Yeah, I had to order mine.
I started out with picrel. It's a cheap piece of trash that broke after like a year. Can't even tell you what it's called, because everyone and their mom rebrands it as their own, probably comes from some factory in china.
But I wanted something cheap just to see if I like using a vertical mouse in the first place. And after I found out it works for me I went for the more expensive Logitec.
It's a bit of a learning curve but you get used to it surprisingly quickly. The only thing that's a problem are shooters that require VERY precise aim, because your wrist is in a different position and fine movements are a bit harder. Or maybe I'm just bad at video games
But other than that I hardly even notice I use one.

Depend on the context and ambience, I personally feel like they always fit very well in games where you control a vehicle (because it imitate the matter-of-fact way military comms are), especially scifi setting where one could easily write off the weird elocution as just the translator program for alien language sacrificing natural pronunciation for the sake of fidelity.

>>527376982
I feel the same whenever I want a mouse that isnt wireless, either dirt cheap crap that last half a year or muh gaming mouse with 6 buttons including one that change the mouse sensibility which is mostly just annoying. Got I hate the wireless gimmick, these things dies so freaking quickly and eat batteries like its nothing for no real gain in comparison to a wired mouse.

I'm unable to enjoy Rain World whenever I've tried. Can I get some recs? Been playing Marathon, sorry were closed, signalis, hylics 2 (but bored me)

>>527397098
I use wireless for my notebook, because wires are a pain for portable stuff, but other than that I agree, and its so hard to get something basic and high quality that is also wired.

I got some G something (403 I think) mouse from logitech long ago, and it comes with some discret leds AND rubber on the sides, dirty sticks on the rubber, its a pain to clean, the rubber also deformed with heat (using it under sunlight near a window), absolutely disgusting.

Meanwhile, on another G something version (wireless), of similar quality, they removed the leds (to save battery) and the rubber (to cut costs, most likely) and it feels so much better to use, except its wirreless, the fucking irony. Why they can't make just make something like this wired? Remove some extra buttons to save costs while at it.

>>527399315
I'm in the same boat.
The whole environment simulation should be right down my alley, and I've had genuine moments of joy during the game Evading the big bird by scurrying into little tunnels But somehow the game just doesn't click with me...maybe because the last two times I've tried I've semi softlocked myself.
My latest blunder was Making it through some swimming challanges to end up in a spooky dark place that seemed like I wasn't supposed to be there yet. However escaping from it required completing some even harder swimming challenges that I couldn't complete

>>527399315
Do you like doom standalone? Because I could recommend Wolfenstein; blade of agony which is a very well made free standalone doom mod, has 3 whole feature lenght chapters as of now iirc. There is also Ashes ; 2063 which has a post apocalyptic vibes where you are a scav trying to survive.

In term of gameplay, if you like going fast, I recommend either Haste or Crumble.

>>527403517
No, actually. I hate fast stuff, I tried Ultrakill or whatever its called but its too fast and it looks ugly to me, I liked cruelty squad a lot but just watching ultrakill gameplay gives me a headache
>>527401887
I never get past the first area honestly, its pretty, I should like it but nothing clicks

>>527394406
Its like darkest dungeon but its slay the spire, you can let your characters really go well off of each other too

>>527216035
You'll get better as you play more. It's worth noting that your deck is set at the start of the battle, so savescumming doesn't mitigate RNG - it just lets you play the same cards in a different order. If you win a battle after savescumming it means you made a mistake the first time around.

Covenant 10 in Monster Train 2 is crushing my balls in a vice. How do I git gud?

>>527403867
Do you like a kind of game in peculiar? Might as well get a hint before I start giving random titles.

Go try the Gecko Gods demo on Steam, /indie/. Obstacles feel less arbitrary a-la "complete this insanely hard jump bro" when you're able to climb everything, yet it still manages to feel good. There's no saving and the camera control is kinda wack though.

>>527404903
You generally need three things to win:
>a way to kill beefy dudes and bosses
>a way to kill squishy backliners
>a way to keep your dudes alive
Different clans will be better or worse at each, the most straightforward example would probably be the woke plants. Animus of will is a great scaling carry to demolish tanks with buffs like razorsharp edge, husk hermit will hit all those pesky utility guys in the back with sweep, and all your healing spells are great at keeping alive whatever tank you choose. Sometimes things won't fall neatly into any category, like a unit with high regen and spikes isn't going to clear out tanks and healers, but it's great at dealing with attacking backliners and bosses. Hard to give more advice without knowing what's troubling you.

>>527405547
My favs are marathon, system shock 1 (but i hate 2), tactical shooters, killer7, adventure p&c games, old rainbow six, cruelty squad, deus ex, i also can like stuff like the bpd girl game or such, i can like most things but if i dislike something i can never get to change my mind on it

>>527410860
Yeah, Awoken + Lazarus seems to be the overall best combo (easy regen, easy rage on the animus, spikes when necessary), although I've also had good luck with Underlegion + Melting and Luna + Stygian/Hellhorn.
I'm usually crashing out against Seraph or the fight before Seraph. The big 440 HP dudes kill me a lot; it seems like if I prioritize survivability my DPS is too low and if I prioritize DPS my dudes die too early. I've got the fundamentals down, I took MT1 to Covenant 15 or so, but I keep getting fucked here in MT2.

oh good now AAA games cost 80 bucks
def gonna make wanna buy more games

>>527415457
If you're dying at seraph or right before, you probably need better scaling. Could be from having too bloated of a deck, could be not getting good upgrades on units, could be not taking enough risks early to be able to reap the rewards later.

>>527418609
After losing against Seraph again, I think I'm making my deck too big. Maybe I should take the card draw ember after the second boss more often.

>>527420105
You should look at your deck and how many cards are going to cycle. So the spells without consume, the units you can't place down, the blights, etc. The goal is to get it down to the number of cards you draw each turn, but that's usually difficult. If you can manage it though, you effectively have holdover on every spell, which is nuts.

>>527251084
Why do the ingame control options have 3 different firing modes with customisable rate/burst pattern then?

>>527417763
Anon, it might be time to take to the high seas then, I don't much at all but up here in Canada I'm starting to see games going for $100, arrrrr

You could do it for Indies too, sure it's not as morally justifiable but hey, sometimes you don't got the dosh, and you can always try before you buy too

>>527376982
For me? Its the Master MX. Although it probably falls into the ugly brick category which you want to avoid.

>>526733873
I was so hyped for this game.
Won at cov 10 with all combos in MT1 pre-DLC.

But fuck me, cov 10 MT2 feels impossible.

I went back to Slay The Spire Downfall mod (the one that lets you play as the Chapter 1 and 2 bosses)
The Watcher fight is ridiculous with how much damage you might need to tank mid-fight, she raped me
Also might be a bug since I could've sworn the damage she was supposed to do this turn was enough for me to tank but then she just did 25 more OUTTA NOWHERE
The mod probably failed to take her stance chancing into account when displaying damage numbers during one of her later attacks
Or maybe I just had a shitty Guardian build, but I did put one hell of a fight and got her to like 10 HP

>why yes, we will make our demo for the game the slow ass intro where the mechanics are beyond basic and you're bombarded with exposition

why do devs do this. just lost all interest in MIO memories in Orbit

>>527411507
A Hat in Time (comfy 3d platformer about a girl recollecting lost sandclocks and collecting hats)
Selaco (fps, may be a bit too fast paced for your tastes)
Monkey Island games series (cult classics of p&c genre)
SWAT 4 (fps where you control swat squad during realistic missions, just pirate it, its pretty much abandonware because fuck giving money to Activision (current owners of publishing rights).
Cultic (relatively slow paced fps where you play as a cop in the 1960's looking for missing persons then shit happens).

cov 25, in mt1, but not the last divinity

>>527411507
system shock 1 had a remake that's 95% accurate to the original, but better inventory, you can mod weapons, money is a thing and the trash in the area can provide it, and they did something questionable with the regen bays per deck only needing to be active on the hardest mission mode. They even got back Shodan's voice for extra lines. You're only missing out on that stance "spectrum" thing they did, it's now just crouch and lean.

Citadel/Beyond Citadel. Beyond is the better one. Realistic weapon handling (jams, manual cycling of pump, lever, and bolt action, etc., lets you manually increase fire rate but you can fuck up and cycle out live rounds), leaning/pie-slicing is kind of necessary especially early on and you have to account for bullet drop per weapon.

>>527437939
>Selaco
Had this for a while. Like I told my friends, wait for the full release and sail the seas for it. Whatever their final asking price is, it won't be worth it. It's made on the sourceport of gzdoom, modified, but that were the problem comes in. Most of their time is attempting workarounds for basic shit, like to get something like room over room to work more effectively or have enemies realize glass is transparent and can be shot through. Still haven't figured out how to reliably make it so when you're sliding you don't hard stop on a random loose floor tile, of which are literally everywhere. Their devs have had meltdowns over various stupid things which they always delete on top of it, but since it's an established pattern (if you've been there since the beginning anyway...) you should be wary of the very real possibility they have "the big melty" during their own perceived crunch time and just turn that last stretch into slop so they can be done with it.

>>527408219

I'm with the other anon, though, cov 10 is a huge pain in the ass. Silence on enemies is such a fuck you to basically every strategy.

Not every game needs a whole keyboard mapped with buttons to play, I've found games where you go fast to be incredibly fun, it's likely because of the moment to moment high octane feedback of going fast as fuck.

I tried the Vindictus Defying Fate demo and holy shit NPC's do not stop talking. Then when I finally got past it the gameplay was just so generic. I couldn't be bothered finishing the demo

>let me just rob all your coins and give you a bunch of random shit

honestly, I don't think I like that much of these new classes, mage is a pain to organize the inventory and the items are bit more complex. I need to try more of the bags and the class items tho.

>>527457962
>mostly positive
That means it's shit like you say.

>>527464043
the problem with the review system is obviously that someone isn't likely to purchase a game if they think they won't like it, so the review system has a massive positive bias that gives almost every game a positive review score to some degree unless it's just an irredeemable fuckup of a game
the best you can do is take a positive review and imagine it lower by 20-30% to accurately gauge what the popular reception would actually be, games with 90%+ positive review scores are the only ones that have anything close to a guarantee of quality

I might not have been able to get to the Nexus, but I'll take a true ending. God, the Rift Waker turns the game into a fucking slaughterfest.

NTA, but I could never be fucked to look into specific recording software, always use windows game bar for footage and screencaps, takes up a lot of space with footage though, is ShareX and by extension .webm worth it? Pardon my ignorance and laziness

>>527492096
I dunno man, If you want a quick and easy way to record low file size webms then ShareX is definitely worth it. It's free anyway.

OBS let you stream, but also record, and have a replay buffer (aka press + to immediately save the last 30 seconds of gameplay).
And also let you fuck with sounds to record comment or not, or add an overlay.

>>526689130 (OP)
Has anyone managed to conquer other dimensions in Conquest of Elysium? I've always gotten my ass kicked, especially by the archon.

>>526689130 (OP)
Wtf does a synergy weapon mount do in starsector?

In Bannerlord is there a way to see anything in night battles? Its way too dark, no turning up the brightness is not a solution since it will be too bright during the day.

>>527498291
I haven't bothered conquering entire dimensions but I've defeated the Great Archon and many other boss NPCs there. The Great Archon is probably the strongest NPC especially because of his troops and fortifications.

I'm not liking a hat in time, it feels imprecise and the camera sucks which are two things you shouldn't have on a platformer, is it just dated?

>>527499524
>probably the strongest NPC
Yeah, I figured as much. He's the only place with three different walls. The only dimension I've ever conquered has been the Plane of Water.

>>527498464

I guess its a different vibe, some peoples prefer high reactivity and quick thinking/spray n pray, while others prefer to be slower and more methodical. Personally I enjoy boths styles of gameplay, the difference in pace allowing for a varied experience with both its own boons and flaws.

Id say its relatively easier to get a dopamine rush from sychronicity in a fast paced game over a dopamine rush in a slower paced game resulting from succeeding in a calculated strike.

>>527441332
Also id deffinitely recommend Citadel, both the original and sequel, as they are slow paced and genuinely good fps, the only issue id say is that bosses might be fast paced but they tend to be easy to deal with (take less than a minute to kill if you keep firing at it)

>>527457367
If you liked Haste gameplay, I can recommend Crumble, relatively similar except its more about swinging around using a hook while this in peculiar is but one out of four "special" you can use in Haste.

gave seraph terminal super aids with an 8 turn boss rush, my quickest yet by like fucking 3 turns

>>527493206
OBS is great, my only gripe with it is I can't save screenshots as jpg, or automatically downscale them like I can videos, so instead I get fucking 7+mb png's I have to convert to post. Most other shit won't even record HDR screenshots right

>>527477272
AAA (game devs and IPs) are more like used up escorts with washed out, lifeless, vacant,drug addled eyes who are being worked to death by gang banging pimps (megacorpo publishers) and dragging them behind the shed to be shot the moment they start underperforming and being unable to repay the plastic surgeries that made them look like artificial bimboes no one desire.

In comparison, indies are more like street corner girls, some are just naive girls who want to share joy and pleasures whom you want to protect from the harsh truths of the world before they get broken by abuse and self neglect, while others are std ridden riders of the societal cock carousel who will pocket your wallet, spit in your face and call you a fool for thrusting them, only for you to hear at a later time they died of OD, suicide following bankruptcy or are now a shells of themselves being pimped out to whoever willing to pay.

There are also exception to the norm, like the crazies (indies who self destruct over retarded drama), shameless exhibitionists (porn game makers), and scums selling refurbished blow up dolls claiming they're the same as real ones (ai slop and asset flippers).

>>527514138
Hey thanks anon, looks interesting. Downloaded the demo

>>527498464
Allows you to mount energy, missile or synergy weapons.
Composite is for missile, ballistic and composite. Hybrid is ballistic, energy and hybrid. Universal is universal, duh.
The reverse is also true, a synergy weapon can be mounted in the three relevant mount types.
Note that downsizing works differently for those mounts, a large synergy can mount large energy/missile/synergy but only medium/small synergy.

I just realized that I am still on a 128Gb SATA SSD. I could probably upgrade to some nvme shit with more capacity and move all my games to the SSD, but just the thought of having to deal with hardware and then install everything again.....

>>527529149
Literally nothing. I think you get gems if I remember right, but that's about it. The only worthwhile place is the Nexus. Technically I conquered that too, but I don't know whether or not to consider it a plane.

>>527535635
You don't have to do any of those things, though.
Zomboid is the most customizable post-apocalyptic life sim game on the market.
CDDA would be a notable contender but its devs keep being retarded and making it worse in every way possible. Including, but not limited to, hiding world customization options.

Rain World, Rivals of Aether, Pseudoregalia, Atlyss, etc, giving furry games a good name is gonna be flushed down the toilet because of schizo shit like >>527511826

>>527537517
Never even head of those except Rain World which is shit.
Furry games are shit. Scav doesn't stand out.
Good name? You gotta be shitting me.

>>527535635
Unironic skill issue. Learn how to properly run and hide, break sightlines and don't sprint into downtown areas, and cull small groups to give yourself breathing room. And stop fucking with the sandbox settings, 9am is the default start time, it shouldn't be dark out when you spawn.

The intention is clearly to make the player feel bad about letting the bugger get that depressed in the first place, it even makes cute noises in game when they get hurt, it works on me.

Although I admit the shotgun callosotomy feels a bit excessive, maybe the dev is intending it to be a drawback of having a gun on you? I almost wanna go into his discord and ask the thought process, maybe tonight.

>>527539725
It's already a challenge to even get Expie to miserable, unless you're intentionally doing everything wrong, or going out of your way killing traders or something

btw, been playing more autonauts. I had forgotten how wood hungry industry and mk2 bots are in this game.

>>527537778
sounds like someone is afraid to have fun with something with an even remote relation to anything anthro. Have you tried having an indie thought instead of being a textbook example of collective reasoning?

>>527537517
Not completely accurate. The sex pests are the problem, like with anything really. If you put a troon or their ilk in the game as a major character it's going to suck just as much as a furry game that's a loose excuse for a fetish. Scav is probably going to suck because it'll have so many ways to depress or kill you because it just fascinates the dev rather than being a fun mechanic.
Stuff like Selaco just has asshole devs with melty's and banning naysayers in their forums for calling them out on their shit, Atlyss had fat fetishists losing their mind over a character proportions bug to the point it openly split the community between ERPers and people that actually enjoy the game because it's good. With that split defining things better, the development appears to be going a lot smoother now by all the videos getting posted.
Get rid of the sex pests and the game will develop into something better on its own.

>>527559103
>The sex pests are the problem
I agree with petty much everything you said, the constant and unending obsession furries have with being crazed sex fiends has forever damaged their hearts and minds and the perception outsiders have of them.

I really really fucking hate it too, people hate anthros because this shit has been happening for over 20 fucking years, feral is commonplace, the most insane and immoral fetishes are ignored or worse justified, and they have the gall to act like victims. People are never going to be able to take anthro games seriously because they associate it with crazed sex fiends, and who's fault is that??? We're seeing Scav adding more insane deaths bordering on fetishistic, and Atlyss is made by a porn artist, and those are just the thread relevant examples.

I just wanna enjoy anthro animals because I think they're cool, not cause I'm a degenerate, but ig we can't have nice things.

>>527564874
the thing that's worse about Atlyss is the guy did this specifically to get away from the porn and made a good game. The furries melting down over a proportions bug secured the idea the "service" is intrinsic to the game, which it absolutely isn't, the game stands very well on its own and you don't have to make a chonk character to enjoy it. They infested it so hard he built a self-isolating feature into it by having lewd servers seperated from the main ones.

>>527565895
>the guy did this specifically to get away from the porn and made a good game.

So he makes a fat fetish furry game and uses the excuse "but you don't gotta be fat though", and then gets surprised when it's infested with fatso's?

>>527541553
said who, you and your shill discord?

>>527537517
Stop comparing actual good games like Pseudoregalia or Atlyss with furtranny slop like rain world or scav

Play rift wizard 2

>>527570161
because steam is the only platform people notice shit on, provably so by this very thread that has nothing but steam links.

>>527570161
Iirc Steam comission is 30% while itch io is 0 to 10%, its understandable that an indie dev would favor itch early on because it allow for better money flow and once its completed or in a more seviceable state them put it unto steam for more coverage. Also depending on the stage of development it might be too early to put on steam, as peoples tend to be understandably annoyed if somesthing stayblvon EA for "too long" on steam.

should i give him a 360 shield? he gets flanked A LOT

>>527575179
Probably wont do much good, as the ship is designed for hit n run and flanking so chance are the AI will get flanked anyway because it rush into the blob and not use the rushing ability effectively. Alsi iirc it has abysmal turning speed so its very easy to get outflanked.

>>527535635
>Spawn into pitch blackness

Anon, unless you specifically chose to modify the worldgen stats, pretty sure you'll always spawn when there is electricity and during the day. I cant even think of anywhere youd be able to spawn that leave you in pitch darkness. I think you are making shit up.

I didn't really understand the hype around Ultrakill, but the second V2 fight sold me. That was rad as fuck. I love this game.

>>527535635
This guy won't survive a zombie apocalypse.

>>527535635
Quoted for truth. Project Zomboid is overrated as fuck, and is only popular because redditors are desperate to pass as "real gamers".

>>527587657
zomboid is popular because its the only game doing what its doing.
No CDDA doesn't count, its devs are even more dumb gay and retarded. also ascii is a hard normie filter and ascii games simply do not exist to them

I've only gotten up to A9 but I had my first rotating streak and I'm pumped about it.

>>527588206
1. nobody plays cata without tiles
2. nobody cares about normalfags

>>527590528
1, then why isn't there a default tile set already?
2, normalfags are the only thing keeping dumb retard devs in check, without normies they will run down their retarded little autism rabbitholes and endlessly waste dev time

>>527590697
Isn't Ultica the default tileset? I prefer Chibi Ultica btw.

As already mentioned,
>Normalfags
>Playing ascii games
Anyway, almost everyone heavily against the devs' creative direction probably already moved to Cdda Bright Nights.

>>527564874
>associate it with crazed sex fiends, and who's fault is that??? We're seeing Scav adding more insane deaths bordering on fetishistic
are you so shocked by the shotgun suicide that you cannot accept it as a gameplay mechanic?
is receiver 2 a self harm fetish game or whatever you want to call it because it does the exact same thing in an exact same way by literally forcing you to shoot yourself if you don't do well enough?
>a game about gun safety makes you commit intentional suicide and it's fine

>>527572579
Did the patches improve the game much? I haven't played since right around release and felt pigeonholed into needing to do only one thing or die (stuff that procs instances of damage into instances of other damage types). The patchnotes look like a huge number of buffs, so hopefully that gives more room to freely experiment.

>>527603801
>stuff that procs instances of damage into instances of other damage types
Well at the end of the day you're still building synergies to break the game, the type you described is pretty common but you can get creative with it. That run for example was built around drain pulse with the summon cat on kill upgrade. Since the cats reincarnate, you get to kill them for more cats, and with restless dead you get skeletons as well. Dark harvest basically lets you spam those spells forever. Found an early sprigganmaker, which just adds to the spam. The summons alone don't do much damage, but with necrostatics, chain lightning gets super buff. Add the shield upgrade and now it also chains to allies, granting them a shield for more durability. Then you have sonic shielding, which deals damage and silence when shields break. It's like 5 different damage types so very capable of handling immunities, and the summon spam provides some defense as well since enemies can never reach you. I don't think you could really call it the same as say, my last run where I was spamming 30+ wizard summons, despite both being summon builds. They have superficial similarities but function very differently.

>>527595318
>a game with a laundry list of suffering that has multiple layers to said suffering, and wiki pages just to explain all of them, where shotgun suicide in all that misery porn is a mere bullet point

There's actual retards that believe false comparisons like this right? There have to be.

>>527606857
>and your IRL fingers being so stupid you shoot yourself
outed yourself, you didn't play the game
there is literal suicide mechanic where your character presses the gun against their temple without your control

>>527572579
what about rift wizard 1?

>>527608163
2 is an upgrade on pretty much everything, unless you really liked shrines or a specific build that got nerfed.

>>527564874

You can disable the tiles in the tiles release and play with ASCII. I prefer it.

>>527607940
>mind control that can be beaten is the same as a full pain and misery system which is constantly fed by all the other systems in the game
>conversational gotcha's make me smart
are you twelve

>>527609308
i also sometimes disable tiles when driving long distances because ascii vehicle rendering is still better looking

but that doesn't change the point
all major cata forks have tiles and they're on by default
and not only *a* default tileset but a ton of tilesets to choose from

>>527610267
yes, they are essencially the same:
both are events which can be avoided by performing a specific set of actions, either reactively (unloading your gun in the last moment;hitting yourself with opiates/antidepressants) or proactively (learning to recognize bad tapes;learning to keep your mood high), the only difference is complexity, but the end result is the same - you get a bullet to the head because you didn't play your cards right.

I finally beat Cov 10 on Monster Train 2. I used Underlegion and Stygian Guard - got lucky with Bogwurm's Heart and almost all the extra space went to the bottom floor. My endgame setup was an Anuki, the guy that applies decay (doublestacked for decay 4), the guy that summons funguys, a jack in the box with 3 stewards in it, and the "summon funguy on non-troop death" room on the bottom floor. I used Madame Lionsmane with +2 Decay and +1 summon troop on incant. My bottom floor tanked Seraph the Corruptor solo, applying over 150 decay to him before he died. Feels good man.

>>527623662
no, it's a more of a slow-burn tactical game where action usually means that you've fucked up. there are weapons and you can use them, but no flamethrowers.
i won't try to shill it but i'll say that if it's your exact kind of autism - it's really fucking good. very complex health system, unforgiving difficulty, learning-by-observation, dynamic scenarios and much more. if you like games like noita, rain world, solo barotrauma (usually with mods), cataclysm (or vast majority of traditional roguelikes) - there's a very good chance you'll like it too.

>>527621226
yes

>>527629350
Is it fun to play solo barotrauma? is there AI now?

the dopamine that this gave gives is just unreal
Act 1 was mediocre (relics are good, cards are terrible). Picked Slaver's Collar over the +2 Miracle boss relic since my curve was terrible
Act 2 was weird since normal fights didn't hurt as much (thanks Anchor) but I had 0 block/damage output. Spent all potions and rests over elites, had to dodge 1. Boss went about as bad as expected, but I squeezed out a kill. Ended the act with unupgraded Mental Fortress, Lesson Learned and Fusion Hammer since I needed the energy.
Act 3: barely got any upgrade with Lesson Learned due to annoying spawns (+ I have no meditate). Spent all gold in 1 shop before burning elite (wasn't even good buys) and barely survived the encounter. Last rest gave upgraded Tantrum, which was a massive improvement.
Act 4: got unupgraded Talk to The Hand and an upgrade pot. Took 40 from the elite fight. Seemed doom since I have 0 damage output but then they dropped cultist potion.
Final boss: took 0 damage from all the good shit the game dropped since last act 3 rest.

>>527629734
i know a guy who really enjoys it but i think game looses on too much shit by playing it solo. the atmospehre is different though.
ai bots were there for ages, but they're dumb as rocks and will often kill themselves, your sub, waste your medicine, forget their divesuits and even sometimes will manage to miss on turrets and shoot (you)
so, average public server experience i guess

>>527629734
I tried it once in singleplayer and got halfway through a campaign before I realised I hated it, so I'mma have to say no to that.
No idea if AI's been improved since I last played.

Is there such a thing as "long form roguelikes"? I have over 2k hours in sts, ror2, and balatro and I love the way those games work but it's still frustrating sometimes how the difficulty scales so much so fast. But it makes sense because the runs are only 30-60 minutes.
I was thinking, are there any games that have those roguelike build crafting mechanics but in a more traditional RPG that takes many hours or maybe days to beat?

>>527638467
tales of mal eyal takes like 25 hours to beat for the main campaign and 8 hours to beat for the orc campaign but no crafting, just killing monsters
DDA and Qud are probably meant to be played for months

>>527638467
>that takes many hours or maybe days to beat?

>>527643302
this seems excessive, like I get you're supposed to keep the guy happy and heathy and you're meant to feel bad, but still, isn't a gun supposed to be a pure gain and you don't have to worry about the thing blowing his brains out with it?

>>527662839
nothing in this game is pure gain
you always have to balance everything, at bare minimum there's weight and volume cost, and at worst some items you carry around can kill you if you aren't careful (not just drugs)

>>527663581
it is just a torture sim, that is probably the fetish of the dev

>>527663963

why people are losing their shit so much over gun suicide while being way more lax to more conventional "splitting your own throat" methods of suicide. if anything, guns are more humane

NTA, I've tried the game and it's not, you're supposed to do good, but it really does feel excessive at times, even if the rational is making you feel bad, the suffering the PC can endure can be constant and overwhelming if you get a bad run, and the game is barely done, who's to say what kinda shit we'll see when its finished?

I think I'm gonna go into the devs discord tonight and snoop around, see his messages, who he keeps close, the game CAN be fun, but he gives me bad vibes and it wouldn't shock me if I found out if a few gore fappers enjoyed playing it

deflecting, answer the anon's question, like fuck at least name 2 or 3

i just tried it because of your shilling, it is obviously a fetish for the dev, otherwise why use furry things? why have them cry in agony. It is obviously something sexual.
The question remains, is it even good? And it is not out yet, so i don't know but i wouldn't expect a porn game to be mind blowing

I'll add DayZ, Disc Room the main objective is to actually find all the ways to die and Buckshot Roulette, also any platformer with fall damage.

Honestly the it all depends on how you define "suicide" and it "being a game mechanic". You can kill yourself in any game that has HP or survival meters, so at what point does it become a "game mechanic"?

The game ends with the player sacrificing himself, but otherwise there's no suicide as a mechanic although you can mercy kill your buddies.

In the case of some of the dark souls games there's at least one sword that you can literally stab yourself with until you die.
In cry of fear there's an enemy that "attacks" you by causing your character to shoot himself in the head if your equipped gun is loaded.
In dead space 2 there's the eye needle machine that if improperly operated will fatally stab isaac to death and the QTE against nightmare nicole that is revealed to actually just be the marker influencing isaac to shoot himself with his gun

>>527671359
In the case of dark souls the Seppuku art is just a buff, there's no extreme suffering like Scav is and you can only KYS if you try too, you always come back after death too, same with becoming hollow in DS3

In fact a lot of the games mentioned are far less embellished with KYS'ing, it's either just there or you have to go out of your way to deliberately off yourself

>>527671359
>In cry of fear there's an enemy that "attacks" you by causing your character to shoot himself in the head if your equipped gun is loaded

Actually one of the most slept on gaming achievements

>>527680856
At least not outside the discord, but the discord is sfw.

>>527668728
imo "being a game mechanic" means the player can do it as an available action rather than a consequence, from the ones I listed DayZ's is probably the most obvious one, Disc Room is arguable, and buckshot roulette death by suicide is a fail state.

>>527629734
Bots are...usable. You need to babysit them on bad subs, forbid them from interacting with any cabinet that has medicine, and probably have to get the mod that allows them to respawn after a mission. But they're passable meatshields for on-foot combat, are better turret gunners than the average multiplayer rando, do their assigned jobs reliably if rigidly (as long as pathfinding doesn't break), and are essentially extra lives for you. Definitely need an assistant dedicated to putting diving suits back though.

>>527664473
There's some medical game I recall where you can either save or kill a patient through various health complications. A patient can get depressed and suicidal and may even kill themselves immediately resulting in a loss/win that way.

>>527664473

not a roguelike

>>527667440
>>527668003
There's also Kill Yourself, which is a little game where you have to find various ways to become an hero within an apartment.

>>527684806
Good point on Buckshot. A lot of the games listed have the suicide as a fail state that arrives quickly, like a single attack or a trap, not a full slow burn system that constantly pushes the player character toward it. With Buckshot Roulette, the entire game revolves around manipulating the result and possibly being forced to gamble on it, a decision that you can incorrectly judge, making it a solid mechanic. You don't even need to ever turn the gun on yourself either.

If you wanted to die you'd be dead. What you really want is for your life to suck less, which is achievable, even if it never reaches the puerile fantasies you dream up for yourself. The majority of people are, if not content, relatively satisfied with the life they lead, and there's nothing so special about you that prevents you from feeling the same.

I'm enjoying this "game"

>>527701504
>If you wanted to die you'd be dead.
Yes, but there can be many reasons for that, one of them, to not make my poor mother suffer. I was already hard enough on her to lose my father.

>What you really want is for your life to suck less
You are right, but we don't always get what we want.

>which is achievable
doubt.png. life experience tells otherwise and please don't give me empty platitudes.

>the majority of people are
I am almost sure this constitutes some logical fallacy. Other people being X or Y doesn't change how I feel about my life.

>>527702936
>there can be many reasons for that
Not good ones. If you plan on committing suicide, it follows that you either don't believe in an afterlife or don't care about there being one. If there isn't one, your consciousness ends at the moment of death, and the feelings of anyone around you become irrelevant as you will not experience them. If there is, the pain of you killing yourself will likely still be felt by your loved ones wherever they end up, meaning there's no reason to wait until they die. While you may think you're being noble, in reality you're simply robbing yourself of happiness while also refusing to take meaningful action to end your suffering by either improvement or death. No one can make you suffer other than yourself. You choose to be unhappy.
>life experience tells otherwise
This is actually a logical fallacy - you can interpret it as appeal to tradition. Something being true in the past does not necessarily make it true in the present or future. That said, anything can be a logical fallacy with a little wiggling. You're thinking of argumentum ad populum, or appeal to popularity, but I'm not saying that most people believe that happiness is possible, therefore you should too, but rather that most people are not suicidally unhappy, which is a verifiable fact.
>we don't always get what we want
Nobody gets everything they want, but that doesn't make it a binary situation; you can get some of the things that you want. Getting some of these things is better than getting none of them, which is what you're currently doing. Assuming you are not terminally ill, mentally retarded, or otherwise disabled, there are actions you can take that will improve your quality of life and thereby your overall mood. You probably regularly reason your way out of doing so with some manner of habitual nihilistic thought, but playing through a scenario in your head is not representative of what will happen in reality, and you probably recognize that on some level.

>>527707640
To add a final thought: you're using your own thoughts and beliefs, which are actively making you suicidal, to attempt to figure out what you should do with yourself. To borrow a platitude from 12-step programs: you can't fix your broken brain using your broken brain. It is natural to humans to prioritize being correct over basically anything else. It's a common issue to get stuck in patterns of self-defeatism due to this. It is not an issue that is unique to you and it is not insurmountable. Therapy and/or meaningful action can and will break you out of your depression.

Boy Scav is quite a game.

>>527699679
Anon, suicide is for the weak of both body and mind, don't do it

But if you're truly honestly bound and determined too, please, take some or multiple degenerate scum with you, horrible vile people that won't be missed or martyred

But ideally, don't kys

>>527707640
>If there is, the pain of you killing yourself will likely still be felt by your loved ones whereve
What if there isn't? Curious how you don't explore that hypothesis.

>No one can make you suffer other than yourself. You choose to be unhappy.
Love this victim blaming. Of course, it all boils down to it at the end, all the arguments and mental gymnastics until now, they all have been just about this in their core. Curious how people who argue against suicidal people online are mostly like this. They try to pass as being positive, unbiased and delay it a bit, but try to argue a bit and soon it becomes clear: they just want to say its all your fault and you should feel bad about it, you should suck it up, stop being sad in front of them and stop reminding them that bad things exist, that is it, that is all that the arguments boils down to. That is just being condescending and beating a dead horse, you are never going convince anyone with this. I am not even going to comment on the rest.

>>527701891
>>527703230

neat, I feel less lonely now while playing through my backlog. Thanks anon.

>>527641007
Anyone?

>>527711501
>victim blaming
You are not a victim and you have not been victimized. Being alive is not a persecution. The reason people tell you that you are doing it to yourself is because you are - consider the common variable in the times you've been told that. Your problem is mental and you are the only person who can control your own thoughts. You have an emotional reaction to this because you are aware that it's true, which means that you're wrong, which makes you scared, which makes you angry. I don't care if you live or die because I don't know you. I'm arguing because it helps me to identify my own thoughts and beliefs about suicide, which is of interest to me because I've attempted suicide multiple times and keeping my thoughts aligned against further attempts is in my self-interest. I can tell you from my own experience that revelling in your misery is non-productive, and no matter how unhappy you are now, you will become even unhappier if you continue in this way. In short, I'm not trying to condescend to you, I'm expressing the thoughts that prevent me from killing myself while also keeping me semi-functional as a human being. If you consider the argument you might find it useful. Good luck to you.

He clearly said that his intent is to help to organize his thoughts by describing his own beliefs and opinions, not to prevent anon from KYSing.
Anyway, let's all end this off-topic shit. Recommend me some depressing games.

>>527716995
signalis
silent hill
dead space

>>527717371
I think Dead Space and Silent Hll feel more tense and anxiety-inducing rather than depressing. I don't know Signalis.
I was thinking about story heavy games about war or dystopian settings.

>>527717649
>war or dystopian settings
IRL (a roguelike)

>>527716995
ULTRAKILL is pretty depressing if you look for the secret bits while also being extremely fun. For more just straight misery porn I'd suggest Milk Inside/Outside a Bag of Milk, To The Moon, and Papers, Please.

Are we trauma dumping and talking about killing ourselves again? I suffer from a serious mental illness and it really sucks. I can't get therapy because of the stigma. So I cope by playing video games.

>>527717753
IRL is not roguelike.
>>527717774
I've played Ultrakill, not a fan of arcadey fps and its aesthetics though.
Milk Inside/Outside a Bag of Milk seems interesting and obviously I've already played Papers Please.
To The Moon filtered me when I was younger, maybe I lacked emotional maturity, I don't know if I can sit through it now.

>obviously I've already played Papers Please
Nigga thinks he's some kind of local eceleb in this dead thread

>>527718609
I just think that Papers Please is a very unique and fairly popular game that most people here would have already tried at least once.
Do you have some kind of mental illness?

>>527718136
Ultrakill got a graphical remaster iirc, though I didn't play before it. You might like the way it looks better now.
Sorry for the kind of basic recommends but I couldn't really think of anything else that fits the bill. I mostly play gameplay-y games.

nigga actually asks for game requests then responds with "obviously I've played them" then tell people they are mentally ill
Just get a trip so I can filter you

It's called joking around lil bro

>>527718609
Everyone interested in indie games has at least tried Lucas Pope's games..

>>527701891
Is there a cute girl character?

>>527716995
What Remains of Edith Finch

>>527716995
Narcissus.

>>527731342
Narcissu?
I think this was one of my first VNs. Planetarian was better.
There's a Narcissus on steam but It looks like an outdated top down shooter. And I don't think it's depressing at all.

>>527731772
Narcissu, yeah. Played that game when I was sad (not depressed, just sad), and by jove it didn't make me any better.
I have yet to try Planetarian, I got it on Steam while it was free. My first was Higurashi, I still love the mix of comedy and horror.

What is this death screen? Do I just go back to the main menu?

>>527716995
beyond citadel. It's surreal as hell and melancholy.
Humanity is basically dead, the survivors are mindfucked, the few survivors that aren't mindfucked and help the player character get completely obliterated into some ashes and smoldering gristle, and she smashes the remaining standing military of humanity by the end of the game because it's blocking her from being re-united with her dead brother which she loved just a little TOO much.
That and the death animations can be pretty depressing too, they were actual a point of controversy the dev had to comment on.

>>527739890
I feel like it's important to mention that's absolutely a softcore guro porn game.

>>526689475
I ended up using a spreadsheet for Medieval Dynasty because I wanted to build a self sufficient village without me having to micro it all the time.
Unfortunately it feels like that's not the vision the devs had for the game so there are (or at least were when I played) very few tools to monitor your production chains

Scav is so hard. Any tips so that I don't die to wrong jumps or traps? I can't see where I'm going and glowfruits aren't enough.

This dog has two rows of teeth like a shark

>>527742563
this game hates rush. think twice before you go anywhere, thrice if you don't exactly know where and quadrice if you know that there's a threat
glowfruits are good. carry more than one if you aren't comfortable, so you can throw them as glow sticks.
look for better light sources, there are ways to get them consistently on every layer. you can break lamps in drop pods and grab the lightbulbs don't put it in your mouth
learn common uses for all plants.
learn common crafting recipes. instead of speeding time up when you're exerted - check what you can make with what you have.
equipment priority: light - containers - medical items (gauzes, dressings, splints, etc) - food/water - drugs - utilities - everything else.
move at a moderate pace. you waste resources if you are not doing anything, but you risk too much if you move too quickly.
don't fixate on crates if they're too much trouble to get. spending 10 minutes to break a crate with a pack of candies in it is not worth it.
learn movement tricks, there are more than you think.
learn inventory management and medical panel tricks too.
cursor is your friend. use it all the time. you can use it to check if there's ground on any point of your screen as long as you're conscious.

>>527750153
How do I lessen equipment decay? Should I drop bags before sleeping?

>>527753187
>How do I lessen equipment decay?
I think getting wet causes stuff to degrade much faster, but you kinda need to get wet to stay cool in certain layers or whenever you dig.

>>527754186
Though water/oil is pretty much everywhere so it's hard not to get wet, and you need water to clean up.

Lobotomy Corporation has its cold/depressing bits, where people suffer and that is it, there is no "cosmic justice". Its sad, bittersweet and beautiful in way.

One of the reasons I disliked the direction they went on the sequel, with the librarians living comfy lives and having slice of life moments and they made a gacha later, fuck pm.

>>527716995
I am sorry anon, but he keeps brings "his thoughts" that someone else life is X or Y, that the other person thinks this and that, its worth nothing saying he is just "organizing his thoughts" if he does something completely different right after.
