> buy the Elden Ring's DLC no fuck goatse ring

>>703 I'll only buy the DLC only if the map is huge

>>702 Really excited now that we're closer. I used some of my paid time off for it, maybe a little too much.

>>722 THIS IS THE DAY, fren! DLC is out, have you played it? I'll install it tonight but first I need to kill mohg to enter the dlc land. have you beaten mohg yet?

meh.

>>694 >i was almost curious if anyone here really played JRPGs, despite literally, indisputably being otaku culture, it feels like nobody on these imageboards really does, or at least they never really talk about them. I play a lot of them and enjoy them very much, but I admit that they can be very difficult to get into for certain types of people, especially if you aren't immediately enthralled by the concept of turn-based fights and extremely long stories. I would definitely like to see more JRPG discussion though. >i played persona 3 portable ages ago, and of course i really liked it, because persona is cool, but (and this is admittedly very petty of me), i feel like the games are getting too popular recently, so i've been getting burnt out. like, i don't think there's any one opinion anyone could have about any of the games that someone has not already had. I don't really know about that, but I will say that the recent remake looks garbage. I haven't even played it but the art style alone is bad enough to make me avoid it for good on top of the fact that it's overpriced and they actually took The Answer from the main game and charged an obscene price for it as DLC.

>>695 >I don't really know about that, but I will say that the recent remake looks garbage. I haven't even played it but the art style alone is bad enough to make me avoid it for good on top of the fact that it's overpriced and they actually took The Answer from the main game and charged an obscene price for it as DLC. yeah this is exactly how i feel. persona 3 really didn't need a remake--did everyone already forget that they already put portable onto modern platforms (and not FES for some reason)?! the more i think about reload, the more and more upset i get...

>>696 I can only guess they didn't port FES because they wanted an obviously worse version of the game to be the "rough and outdated" original and for Reload to "surpass" it with modern graphics. If you compare the original with Reload though it becomes clear that the original is better visually speaking as well as in gameplay. In fact, the changes to the gameplay by adding party control and other additions brought over from P5 is what really makes me not want to play it. There's a reason why you can't control your party or use another character's skills in the menu like you would use your own or why you can't change a character's status without directly going up to them and issuing a command. It's meant to make each character feel like their own separate entity that you talk to and in a game specifically about bonds with other characters, that's beyond essential. All this obsession with blindly "smoothing over" a game to make it easier to play at the expense of immersion like in P3 is what makes most modern games so forgettable.

>>693 I did a playthrough of the portable version like ~5 years ago, and well the game certainly did an impression on me despite the repetitive but not difficult gameplay, i liked the story since i wasn't expecting something like that at the time.

I loved this game. The only downside is how grindy it is and the fact it can get repetitive and really drag on which deters me from replaying it as an adult. I've heard the PSP version fixed some of these issues but at the expense of the cutscenes and some of the 3D environments, which I just can't do without.

>>690 I didn't care for the story other than a few good jokes but I found the art style to be very cute and erotic.

>>691 I find the art style to be very unappealing

>>684 ew wtf?

>>698 fuck me for posting about it, sorry you added so much to the conversation, every positive thing i listed automatically countered by those five letters of discontent

>>699 >you added so much to the conversation, every positive thing i listed automatically countered by those five letters of discontent

It was fun guys but I turned off the server due to lack of activity

>>653 Geez, I was just starting to build my house. Still, it's understandble that paying for a server where nobody plays in is a pure waste of money. But, can you at least share the world save as a memorial?

>>654 Okay... But I will take if out if it overconsumes bandwidth: https://unreadable.info/bck.zip The user passwords were hashed, so theres nothing to hide there

>>655 You probably shouldn't include the logs in that, they have the players' IPs

>>456 love the 'craft

The only games that gives me PTSD from my childhood is Mario Lost Levels

>>248 Monster Ock from Spider-Man 2000 gave me nightmares as a kid

timesplitters 2 on hard mode is the most impossible shit I've never done I thought I was about to die in real life when I beat the wild west mission because I felt my heart unindent my chest when it happened

>>247 CoD:WaW on Veteran.

>>247 Fucking God Hand. There are parts of this game that I was stuck on for days and days trying and failing miserably. When the game drops like 20 of the hardest enemies on you on the last level, I thought it was just beyond me, but I SOMEHOW managed to get through it just barely alive.

>>307 I've just finished Chaos;Head for the first time and it's a pretty wild ride, really fun! As the other anons said, they're in the same universe, but only loosely. Websites like @channel and some occasional references to each other (except with Robotics;Notes Dash as said above) but otherwise don't interact. Id say just pick one and play it, Steins;Gate is just the most well-known of them, but honestly feel any is fine to start with.

>>306 I only played Chaos;Head & Child, Steins;Gate. my favorite of them all was definitely Chaos;Child. chaos head was good and has my favorite girls but chaos child just does everything else the best. the story and the art etc. just a shame there was no nanami or what was her name,.. the other sexy loli girl. norriii, kerpeww! girl. ah she was the cutest. I saw there was a new release of the games for switch a little while ago. I heard it was censored somehow etc. but I don't have a switch. someone tell me what they think of robots;notes and whatever else has come out since :p I'm curious. I was obsessed with this whole series years ago but I've fallen off with it since 2016 about. Chaos Head was always the most cozy for me. playing as takumi makes you feel like you're always escaping real life to play as another person, trying to escape their own life and it really gets you into it that way.. hiding in your little cave and playing online. only to be bothered by a bunch of sexy gurls, stalked by some make a wish kid who threatens you. the game gave me the dream of living in my own little hole in the middle of shibuya one day.

>>589 >someone tell me what they think of robots;notes and whatever else has come out since :p I'm curious I played Robotics;Notes a couple years ago, and man I have a lot to say... Robotics;Notes is inspired by mecha anime. A lot. Back when I read it I hadn't seen a lot of mecha at that point, but I could still tell that it was just a huge tribute to that whole genre. Its story feels a lot like highschool club slice-of-life anime, a robotics club in this case. But then, a whole lot of conspiracy-theory shit happens and it takes a huge turn in a completely different direction. I guess it's sort of the same as Steins;Gate in that regard. Also, there's a lot of references to Steins;Gate. There's a twitter-like social media (sort of like how you could view @Channel threads in Chaos;Child, you can see Twitter posts here, can't really remember what it was called) and you get to see some posts by Kurisu there. Daru gets mentioned a lot and Nae (Mr. Braun's daughter) is a really important character (and all grown up now). I don't really remember the whole story, but it gets really, really deep into the whole Committee of 300 conspiracy. There's even a real mad scientist character here, who's something like the main antagonist. I feel like it's supposed to set up a lot for future VNs in this series, since I sort of remember it leaving a lot of unanswered questions about the organization. Also, there's apparently a regular Robotics;Notes and Robotics;Notes ELITE. The ELITE version is what I played because everyone says that's the one you should play. It looks a little different from a standard VN because all the character sprites are 3D (pic related). It was a little weird at first but I remember warming up to it pretty quickly. Also there's a lot of movies with animation that looks like it came straight out of an anime, so that's pretty unique too. About the other VNs that've come out, I haven't played Robotics;Notes DASH yet, but I hear that a new Steins;Gate VN is supposed to be releasing soon. The name and synopsis is unknown currently, it's only known as Steins:Gate ???. So that's pretty exciting. Also apparently, a completely new VN came out too, called Anonymous;Code. I have zero idea what it's about, but I know that it's in this same universe and not a part of the Steins;Gate, Chaos;Head or Robotics;Notes series.

arimura...

>>307 here, i probably should've also asked which versions of the games should i play as well lol it also screws with me when VNs have multiple different versions, i'm always afraid some version will have content missing or something... i'm writing a thing about 16bit sensation, and that anime reminded me that i still need to play steins;gate at some point...

>>657 Suhweeeeet dawg

>>656 already exists https://www.tomenet.eu/

>>656 How'd it work with the turns?

>>674 tomenet uses real time turns, which in my opinion ruins the roguelike experience. if I had to implement it, I would divide the world between public "mmo" areas (towns and such) with real time turns, and private/party dungeons with regular roguelike turns. pvp could have regular turns with a timer like chess
