lets hang out posted:This seems to be messing up with transferring existing saves to their new location so if you're in the middle of the game you might lose progress. Might be caused by the update instead of the dlc, I dunno. They're working on it, probably.

TOOT BOOT posted:What's your connection to the router like? It's possible for your local network to be a bottleneck. Connection is grand, connected via ethernet to a wifi extender on wifi 6. As i said, speedtest gives me near max speed. It's just steam that seems to throttle things.

using hitbox's SOCD to force Neutral for a split second faster than a thumbstick can snap back to Neutral is really cool but also never comes up in the skill levels I play at (casual, no clue what I'm or anybody else is doing)

Ciaphas posted:has the original campaign been changed much, or maybe the original slugcats themselves? (controls, mechanics, whatever else) I don't know, doesn't seem like it but all the pre-release stuff has focused on the new characters. There are some new/modified rooms, bug fixes, loading screen tips, and more tutorial popups around, but I haven't heard of any substantial changes to the 3 existing characters. Think all of the new regions/creatures are exclusive to the new slugcats campaigns. I've only seen bits of a couple of them. They start in the original world, maybe with some changes due to when they occur in the timeline (yes, there is a timeline), and you're free to piddle around there with their unique abilities, but they each conclude their respective campaigns in huge new locations specific to them. They're gorgeous, extremely high effort, and there's basically nothing of them in the trailers. It's wild. They've patched the save transfer bug now btw

Hey what's a good Survivors game? I liked Vampire Survivors a lot and just played through Soulstone Survivors. I gave Brotato a shot and I like it but it doesn't have enough meta progression for me.

Magic Survival is very fun, but unfortunately it's only on Android. If you wanna survive away from the computer that's a good bet though.

It's not altogether unlike older games like, say, Crimsonland comes to mind. Like a Crimsonland but you don't have to aim. You know what I love about Crimsonland? The guts and bodies stay there. Give me more games where they don't fizzle away. I want to see the destruction I cause!

I loved Rain World back in the day but I am legit unsure if I have the emotional strength to revisit it, but I'll definitely be grabbing the expansion down the line.

well continuing my streak of playing any possible games besides the ones i picked up for christmas, i played through the chorvs demo. the dogfighting is extremely my poo poo, but i can tell the "story" is going to annoy the poo poo out of me if i ever pick up the full game. my one major request is the UI guy who decided that enemy and mission objectives should both be marked with the same shade of translucent gray hud marker, just a diamond for one and a triangle for the other, that are extremely easy to lose sight of when there's a load of lasers and poo poo blowing up on screen, should eat a big piece of dookie.

I only know that because I played Magic Survival despite almost never playing phone games and got kind of addicted to it for a while but no one I mentioned it to wanted to play it because "you don't even aim!!", then right around the time I was getting burned out with it VS came out

It feels like I've been waiting for skyblivion since 2011 when skyrim came out. Dunno if development started then but it feels like it. Also been waiting for skywind and morrowblivion. Don't think any of them ever came out. Guess rebuilding entire giant games is a huge task or something

Big fan projects like that rarely ever make it to the finish line, for obvious reasons. A passion project between a small team of like minded people with no budget or direction is admirable but prone to failure.

If you're at the 2 hours mark and you don't like it, or anything else for that matter, just refund the thing. I personally felt it was amazing and worthy of being a thread favorite, but if it doesn't click it doesn't click, don't suffer through games you don't enjoy.

otoh there were plenty of times when I apparently had the info to ID someone but didn't actually have the faintest clue; I don't think that's at all an "incorrect" experience to have. You learn how to see the info you were missing and then you can go back and fill in the blanks. It's also okay to just never figure a few things out, because you can "cheat" by using process of elimination (exploiting the fact that it will confirm when you have 3 correct entries filled out).

there are a few tricks i had to learn from others. for one, if someone is in one scene but gone in a consecutive scene, they probably fell overboard and drowned.

I just beat Chorvs yesterday, and objectives are marked in red or yellow in the full game at least. I didn't have any problems figuring out what to do or where the enemies are. Game's fun! It has a great sense of progression as you go from prolonged dogfights with a few basic enemy ships to taking out entire squads in a blink of an eye. When you're asked to do something that isn't blowing stuff up, it's boring though. Like "pick up 5 boxes scattered about" boring. The story is....there. The core gameplay slaps and was fun enough to see me through it.

credburn posted:Oblivion was probably the greatest hype-to-disappointment plunge I've ever felt. Coming to the game predisposed to over a decade's worth of negativity, I had the opposite reaction to Oblivion a few years ago. Not that it didn't have a billion issues, but there was a lot to like, and I think Skyrim was a regression in some respects even. (Undeniably, though, mods let me ignore some of the rougher edges.) Runs kinda crap though. It could really do with an engine update. Rinkles fucked around with this message at 08:20 on Jan 20, 2023 |

Ciaphas posted:i'm 1h50m into finally trying out obra dinn and i'm 90% sure i've completely bounced off of it To be honest, I feel like the blur/unblur feature was meant to tell you the times when you can't ID someone, not to make you think that you have to ID this person now because the game says you technically can. There are plenty of characters where it's very reasonable and normal to not ID them until long after the game unblurs them.

For one of the biggest ones that made me feel really dumb, since the game unblurs them really early: (job) the helmsman is possible simply because (reason) the sketch you have from the beginning shows him at the wheel at the execution, and the crew manifest says there's only one helmsman onboard. That's literally how it expects you to figure it out.
