so much of the hub map in that marvel game is just, vast open world garbage that the side stuff expects you to interact with. gotta collect those orbs and pick flowers for your next slink and scout out date spots

Vermain posted:yeah, like, the problem with RPG hubs most of the time is that they're either incredibly boring or so disconnected from the rest of the game that they may as well just be a menu. majula's not only incredibly gorgeous on every level, even in DS2's dumpy-rear end lighting engine, but the whole idea of a bunch of broken people coming together in an old ruin and finding new sources of meaning is perfectly in tune with DS2's themes Yeah and the music is perfect https://youtu.be/Z9zUkNBGVhs?si=qouCTsSUJiCT3Js1

A good hub like Majula can be the most memorable thing in a game. Midnight Sun's hub was terrible because it looked and played like a generic store purchased asset and had no character whatsoever.

im playing midnight suns now. love the gameplay but theres too much bullshit between missions. writing swings between 'fine' and 'worst pits of the mcu' largely depending on how funny the writers are trying to be.

Majula was pretty ugly honestly. A bunch of dead trees and shacks. The only pretty part is the sunset. Put a sunset on Firelink Shrine or pretty much any outdoor area and it'd be just as pretty.

Firelink looked like it was made with N64 assets. The Nexus was much prettier.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=doaQC-S8de8 very weird that kurosawa went to all this trouble for no reason. frankly seems like a waste of time when you could just plop a camera down in field during a sunny day and let 'er rip

Still kinda hold it against Majula that it accidentally led me into a midgamr area and away from the intended first area I think I actually beat dragonrider before I realized it wasn’t supposed to be *that* hard

And yet the dark souls 1 graveyard/catacombs/newlondo gets a pass. Hmm. Interesting.

Heide's tower is still a beautiful area despite most of DKS2 looking pretty bad. The approach to Drangleic was also sick.

Infinitum posted:Magic the Gathering Roguelike sounds like a fun concept that'd probably work with the right dev One of my all-time favorites. It plays using old magic rules since it only has the first like four sets in it, but it's a shockingly well put together game. Just loving remake it wotc!!!!!!

if anyone wants to try Shandalar, since it's a game from 1997 it doesn't run on current stuff without jumping through hoops, this video helped me install it on windows 10: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2ElS9C7qik&hd=1 StoryTime posted:But how do you make people pay $1000 / month for cards if they just get them from towns and quiz events and beating monsters???
