Diablo II was shit Anonymous 08/08/2019 (Thu) 00:23:30 [Preview] No. 11824 [Reply] [Last 50 Posts]
Daily reminder Diablo II was a dumbed down skinner box designed primarily for multiplayerfags while Diablo I was a dungeon crawler that started out as a more action focussed take on Roguelikes. Every 'Diablo clone' since then has actually been a Diablo II clone taking all the wrong lessons about an addiction loop instead of quality gameplay.

They both were Shit Controls: The Game. Why compete?

Not an argument. Diablo II added the ability to infinetly grind in SP and the ability to run so you could infinetly kite superior enemies. The entire game devolved into mindlessly killing trash mobs while you farmed the handful of potential loot sources for worthwhile equipment. Compare this to D1 where levels didn't repopulate and you had to live and work with what you got like an actual goddamn dungeon crawler.

Even if you dislike both there are clear gameplay differences.

Third Person Shooters Anonymous 08/07/2019 (Wed) 12:45:10 [Preview] No. 11725 [Reply] [Last 50 Posts]
TPS are reliably the worst genre. Every other genre has at least 10 games you can call all time classics but what is there for third person games?

>Max Payne
>Mafia 1
>Vice City or your favourite 3D-era GTA
>Binary Domain
>MDK
>Armored Core?
>Saints Row 2

And that's your lot. You could stretch it and include Red Faction: Guerilla and maybe one of the Battlefront games 1 is better, 2 is overrated consoleshit unless you mod it but even then you're 1 short of 10.

Aside from prerelease MacWorld expo floor footage shot prior to Bungie cutting the LAN feature Jedi Knight offers a glimpse into that, though it does admittedly feel a lot more floaty than the stiff, solidly grounded combat of Oni.

Was that based on the surprisingly fun Punisher film? The one where his entire family gets fucked on an island. I enjoyed that.

Anybody hyped for Pokemon swish and swosh?
The series died for me with Gen 5, the heavy implementation of 3D Elements into the series.

Gen 5 wasn't too bad but Gamefreak can't code in 3d worth shit so SS is going to be garbage. It's one of the reasons they're loading it with waifubait more than the usual fare. They know people will buy it just to ogle their virtual girls and not give a shit about removing gameplay.

WHAT THE FUCK MAN?! Fucking stormfags, it was meant to be a fucking larp. A FUCKING LARP. You don't fucking kill people and fucking joke about it you mentally ill fuck. What a fucking retarded psychopath. Most of you people are good fucking people, and don't deserve to be associated with a piece of shit like that. Yes we make jokes about Hitler and Jews and Blacks, but it's the same shit as the satan shit in the 70's. No one deserves to die, because of their race, religion or their genitals. This is a fucking load of bullshit. I'm not gonna change anything, because one fucking psychopath doesn't represent you guys, but holy fuck what a mentally ill fucking retarded cocksucking piece of shit. Either way fuck this crazy piece of shit.

Meta/suggestions thread Anonymous 08/07/2019 (Wed) 12:53:09 [Preview] No. 11727 [Reply] [Last 50 Posts]
Looks like we're here for the duration. I doubt 8chan is coming back any time soon and even if it does it'll be temporary. Given that how about a thread on improving this board? I'll start:
1: some actual interaction with the moderation (a permanent meta thread for example)
2: reduce the maximum number of pages at least until the board gets faster. Halving it would help avoid a bunch of dead threads.
3: a basic visible rules page or sticky

And ditto for improving endchan itself
1: somewhere to interact with whoever's running the actual site, like a non-shit /sudo/
2: either posting where to find the board moderation logs or adding it to the software endchan is using.
3: a general upgrade to the default css of endchan to be less fucking terrible

And for the love of god add a missing file image so the catalog doesn't look so broken. It's incredibly easy to forget to re-add an image after you fuck the captcha up. If you can't do that at least require an image for new threads.

General discussion about virtual reality headsets, games, software, and how its overly expensive but also unlike anything on the market.

I have been enjoying Pavlov since its custom game modes have gotten pretty good and it reminds me of Gmod before all the children came.

Virtual reality has been a dumb gimmick for some 30 years now and in that span it hasn't once justified itself in making a genuinely great game. Maybe it's time to wake up? It is only useful for masturbation sims.

Mixer vs Twitch Anonymous 08/05/2019 (Mon) 16:43:04 [Preview] No. 11565 [Reply] [Last 50 Posts]
Im not even a streamer watcher, but the polemic with that Ninja faggot have made me discover Mixer. And I must say that, compared to the few time I went to Twitch, it worked better than Twitch. But that my small experience with both sites.
Because maybe I start using one of the stream sites (Watching some streams is not bad to enjoy), I want to bee sure if Mixer is all that good, or if anyone here thinks Twitch is better. Mixer only problem at first look is that is in the hands of Microsoft; But still Twitch with is retarded policies doesnt make it appealing. So redpill me on these sites. Or is there any better (And populated enough) alternative to these two sites?

It's the same reason people watch sports, it's entertainment. Most people suck at games so they get to watch someone who's a lot better than them play, or someone who is funny. That's basically it. And the chat is usually just shitposting or game discussion.

As for your question, mixer seems to be much faster. The streams load in <1 second as opposed to about 4 or 5 on twitch. Also mixer automatically shows you the past ~30 or so chat messages when you first join. That's all I've noticed, I watch a couple osrs streamers occasionally and checked out mixer.

I happened to get a new PC
(don't ask, assume it was a gift)
and realized I don't even know any games that would require this much power.
What modern games, that can utilize an RTX 2070, aren't total trash and are at least worth pirating?

This, hard. Most of the meaningful dependency is now on CPU.

Play MOOM on 4K Ultra-Nightmare. It's actually pretty good.

Other than that look into emulators with Vulkan renderers. Nshittia's Vulkan support may be inferior to AMD but you've got a fucking 2070 so you should be able to handle RPCS3 just fine.

Or you could sell it and get a Vega/5700 to join the linuxgaymen master race

I mean, I played through the fucking Fable 3 and Re:Zero (and it's the same game after all).

Right, thanks for the reminder.
I also accidentally have a purchased copy of minecraft; but I played through it and various modpacks too much already.

Off the top of my head, Kangdom Come: Deliverance, Divinity OS II, ELEX, Metro: Exodus, EDF 5, Ashes of the Singularity, Sekiro, Nioh, Forza Horizon 4, Soul Caliber 6, DMC 5, Yakuza 0/Kiwami, Ace Combat 7, R2make, etc.

Also, there's sims like DCS or X-Plane, but if you're autistic enough to enjoy them, you probably already play them.

If so, what do think of it? I personally think it's hilarious how it performs better through Wine on Linux than native Windows.

Lots of games do that, mostly older ones. Windows can't even stay compatible with itself because lolmicrosoft.
