Hey, as lapsed old timey Harvest Moon fans who have not yet returned to the farm life genre post-Stardew, what is the second best farming and dating rpg sim thing, the one that isn't Stardew?

njsykora posted:Story of Seasons is the modern day Harvest Moon, right down to including a bunch of remakes of older Harvest Moon games. You could also look into the Rune Factory series. yeah, we looked into Story of Seasons, but there's a number of them. I have Friends of Mineral Town, I think. Are there strictly better options than that, or is that one fair enough?

Ibram Gaunt posted:It's so cool lol. is there any other industry that has a trade press as fundamentally as strangely antagonistic with the product and the consumer as video games journalists? literally all tiresome psycho online bullshit aside, it's their career path to be advertisers and drive sales. I really can't imagine like, picking up the latest issue of Washing Machine Quarterly or National Parks Review and seeing this kind of behavior on display

mutata posted:I'm sure game journalists and reviewers all walked in to their careers as clear-eyed capitalists, as you imply. well, it's an industry press, correct? I don't really care what they have to say, I am just wondering and am curious if there's other industries out there that have this kind of dysfunction at work. I assume they all might have their own extreme peculiarities.

I really haven't kept up on this stuff in many years. e: yes, this Game Developer website looks far more what I have imagined. I really don't know what I was thinking. thank you! wizard2 fucked around with this message at 16:29 on Apr 14, 2024 |

I never really watched his stuff, but I remember when learning of how Dan Harmon is a genuine shitbird and workplace hazard, one article I found was him complaining about having to stay ahead of the audience because they'd figure out all the plot twists of his cartoon show. I remember him using the term "human render farm" or something like that.

Infinitum posted:Yeah that was me. Their main monitor is off screen with cheats on top, they effectively clone it to a secondary screen in front of them, and their streaming capture software streams the game .exe screen free of cheat overlays; rather than the whole monitor. Pure hosed up Carnie behavior. Nightmare Alley bullshit.

I said come in! posted:Yeah PS2 emulation is really the only way to play the PlayStation 2 era GTA games now. Rockstar hasnt fixed the remasters and doesn't intend to, and buried the original releases for PC and sued anyone who tried to restore them. It is good to see that Rockstar is maintaining the spirit of the games. True personal freedom in the face of the absurd and powerful lies within a life of crime.

Final Fantasy is the best JRPG franchise there is, in this Gamer's opinion.

are there people legitimately annoyed at the Balatro guy's success over the silly code or is it merely "heh! good for him!" I recall the Regency Solitaire II devs seeming pretty irritated lol

I feel that the Balatro guy should be seen as an inspiration to all coders everwhere with big ideas!

HopperUK posted:That's it I'm gonna get back to learning to code and make something. It's inspiring. Why stop at "Hello, World!"? For instance, how about "Hello, World!" but with Yankee Doodle Dandy stabbing your eardrums via shrill PC Speaker at an unreasonable volume? Why not? By learning to code, the possibilities are endless!

All you need to know about Balatro is that it's a top tier Deckbuilder with large numbers and no microtransactions. Naturally, it was already GOTY 2024 for many people back in February.
