Just played NORCO and liked it a lot. Set primarily in an alternate future version of the real refinery town of Norco, Louisiana, where AI and robots are more commonplace. You play as a female protagonist who returns to Norco after discovering her mother died of cancer, and a mystery unfolds. Very atmospheric game with writing that is both good (prose and story setup) and kinda bad (story resolution). It's occasionally creepy but also pretty funny and made me laugh out loud a couple times. If you liked games like Backbone, Night in the Woods, and Kentucky Route Zero (haven't played this one personally but they're both Southern Gothic), you'll probably like NORCO. I've also seen comparisons to Disco Elysium due to the literary descriptions and general atmosphere.

I've been playing SIGNALIS for about six hours and I absolutely love it so far. The inspiration from Silent Hill and Resident Evil is obvious but it still has its own aesthetic and atmosphere. It was developed by a mainly two-person team (a man and woman I THINK) and nearly all the characters and enemies are female. It's full of literary and art references in a way that feels purposeful rather than pretentious. Plus it's decently challenging, with a casual mode if you prefer.

Any other Geometry Dash nonas here? I played lite in middle school but I recently bought the full version on my pc and have been playing non stop. I would like to become a god at it someday. It does get pretty lonely when the community is mostly twelve year olds and man-children, though, so it would be nice to make friends from here that play the game. If you haven't played it but like rhythm games, you should totally check it out, the lite version is free on ios.

Anynonna picked up The Knight Witch yet? I started playing it a few days ago and already can't put it down. It's a shoot-em-up metroidvania bullet hell with some of the best writing I've encountered in a game lately. And our character is a 35 year old married woman!! I can't remember the last time I played a game with a female lead older than her late 20s, let alone a game where we don't lose our spouse in the inciting tragedy.
The gameplay itself is challenging but there are cheat codes programmed into the game if you want an easier time getting through levels to experience the story (I've had three cheats equipped since partway through the tutorial, but I'm bad at vidya.) I'm in the third act of the game and excited to finish it, but wanted to share it with all of you first!

how do you guys feel about the mgs1 remake rumor? I feel like konami will probably go through with it since it seems like they're trying to reboot all their old IPs. I will probably watch someone stream it out of sheer curiosity, but I don't see it being as good as the original. Not necessarily because kojima won't be apart of it (tbh, it annoys the fuck out of me that people always ignore the fact that there were multiple writers and the localization team did a lot of heavy lifting) but i just dont think it will have the same charm. especially if they don't get the same voice actors we would get a glorious HD rendering of solid snake tho, so it might be worth it just for that

https://hshop.erista.me/ to download games. You should be able to find whatever language version you want. If the region of the game doesn't match your 3ds (for instance playing an English game on a Japanese console) you'll need to use a homebrew app called Luma Locale Switcher to change the game's region to match your 3ds. It's pretty easy to use though! I had to do that because I have 2 Japanese 3ds consoles (why does JP have the best special editions orz)
Though some games are "global" meaning they aren't region locked!

I don't play a lot of games lately, and mostly it's old as fuck shit that I've played for 10 years straight (M&B, CK2, modded HL), but recently I've been thinking about buying a gaming laptop (I need a laptop over a PC because of reasons). The problem is, I don't think that it would be a worthwhile purchase. I can get a regular laptop for a way cheaper price than a gaming laptop, but I don't play a lot of games (especially modern ones), so obviously I don't need it that much. On other hand, a regular laptop has an absolutely shitty video card, so I sure it will struggle running most games. What do, nonnas? The price is considerable, but for some reason I really want a good gaming laptop, but for what? Playing FNV for millions of times? It's difficult to choose. I don't like playing games anymore, but sometimes I like to spend an evening playing a session of CKII, but spending twice as much on a laptop is a bit too much for me for something that I do only occasionally.
For the record, I'm choosing between ASUS TUF Gaming F15 and ASUS X515. With the later I also can buy a drawing tablet on top of that, which I also need. Sorry if off-topic, but it still kinda gaming related, so…

I'm also like you, I prefer playing older games (FNV is extremely cozy, ain't it? You better be romancin' Joshua). I say as long as it can handle games up to, say, Skyrim-era, and can handle a game that could have dozens of mods, you'll be fine. I prefer laptops over a PC myself, I've been using them for 10+ years now. I managed to play Mass Effect 2 on a shitty Macbook that had taken a beating during college, and I was happy as a clam.

I finally beat SMT5 and went with the law ending. I managed to do almost all the side quests except the one that requires beating Shiva because fuck that, I got all the mimans and amalgams, and I found the last boss fight to be way easier than the second fight against Zeus because I didn't get the true neutral ending. Fuck Chiyoda, easily the worst part of the game.
Anyway, I'm now going back to Pokemon Legend Arceus, which I started months ago and I'm now done with the tutorial and I'm given missions here and there. I'm still at the very beginning of the game though. How long is it if I want to 100% the game? Is it possible to complete the pokedex without trading, since it's a spinoff? I'm guessing it's still an easy game like the rest of the series compared to SMT, because I took a long time beating SMT5 but it was still very intense.

>>267446the dex isn't too hard to fill since it inly has a few hundred pokes. pretty sure you can finish without trading, there's an item you can buy to evolve pokes like gengar that normally evolve by trading.

I bought the La Pucelle/Rhapsody combo pack port for the switch and it's very fun so far. La Pucelle has some coomer elements but I like the main character from what I've played so far. I've been absolutely loving Rhapsody and would have been obsessed with it had I played it as a little girl. The only real nitpick I have is with the musical numbers which I feel could have been improved by making them a sort mini rhythm game segment.

Hi nonnies, would you recommend Monster Hunter Rise for a casual gamer? Someone recommended it to me and it's on sale on the nintendo eshop for just under $40 right now with the sunbreak expansion+dlc. I don't usually play games very often but my top two switch games are ACNH and BOTW.

They made games like Freddi Fish, Putt-Putt, Pajama Sam, etc. The video went over the demise of the company, and I was so fucking pissed when I learned about a game that they were making at the time of their demise.
"A Gas Pocket Adventure: Aliens Ate My Cookies" is picrel. At the time of its development, H.E. was bought by Infogrames, the French video game publishers, and Infogrames was losing money and looking to cut corners. They laid off 40% of H.E.'s staff (in a really shitty, impersonal way too), and then they cancelled "Aliens Ate My Cookies". Their reason? "Infogrames did not have faith in a game featuring a female protagonist." FUCK INFOGRAMES. FREDDI FISH WAS A GIRL YOU FUCKING FROG SCROTES

>>270846I was going to keep playing Pokemon Legend Arceus but I got distracted by Persona 5 Royal. I wanted to just be done with the first arc/the tutorial and put it aside for once I beat Pokemon Legend Arceus but maybe I'll do the reverse instead. I played P3P and P4G a decade ago and loved them, then played a bunch of other, much harder Megaten games so now I'm just half-assing everything because I know I'll beat this game very easily on normal. I played the original at an acquaintance's place long ago and only did the first two arcs, and it was annoying as fuck because the guy was annoying himself and we only saw each other from time to time so just going through that part of the game took months. I'm already having way more fun right now.
By the way, I accumulated a lot of gold coins in my Nintendo account so I decided to buy a year of Nintendo Online subscription with a discount. I still play ACNH from time to time, and I have a bunch of duplicate DIY recipes, if anyone would be interested in visiting my island. I posted codes in the AC thread a few months ago when I used the free trial and some anons came and took a bunch of recipes, clothes and pieces of furniture so I'm sure other anons would be interested as well.

Is the story as botched as Fates when it comes to translation? I've seen rumors about that.
>I'm kinda sad I bought this for full priceShit like this is why I'm asking about the game. It looks like shit and it's not like the gameplay is different from the previous games. Did you buy a physical copy? Because if that's the case, at least you could just sell it later even if it's at a loss. I think I'll just replay Awakening, Birthright and Conquest and just stick to that, and maybe try to beat Sacred Stones once and for all instead of buying this one.

The animations and 3D animations do look better I'll give it that. My biggest pains are the art direction. All the female characters look like they're from fucking Whoville.

Moids are screeching that this is a girl game now because of treehouse localisation and the male character designs, but they don't have an ikemen look at all to me.

For FE Fates people were complaining that the localization made sincere scenes between family members and friends look retarded because of memes and removed DLCs but retards thought we just wanted to have the petting minigame back and that everything else was intact.

>>271681This is definitely not a good thing. If you let a localization studio do whatever they want, they will eventually make changes that you also dislike. This time it was a change that you supported, but next time it might not be.
But this is actually not a good thing for you. Unlike anime, video game overseas sales actually matter. This shit is weird, even for japanese standards. And I think FE is a pretty well known franchise right? So it's not some weird weeb obscure game. In that case, it would be better if western audiences saw this and spoke against it en masse. If western audiences make a big deal about it, the japanese company would feel more obligated to avoid this in the future.
I'm pretty shocked at this and it's a shame it will remain hidden to most western players. Even in anime and manga, you do not normally see lolicon relationships unless you are specifically reading or watching lolicon manga/anime. I don't understand why they would think this was a good idea.

>>271625I think that Anna wouldn't be as much of an issue if her type of character was a new introduction specifically in the installment intended to appeal to younger audiences. But because FE has had an ongoing issue with weirdly sexual loli designs, I take umbrage with her presence as a romance option.
In Rune Factory 4, for example, I don't have a problem with Kiel and Amber being romancable. Some adult players to find their romances uncomfortable, but I think that the argument that they're there for younger players is completely plausible.
Anna… I don't think so. Not when designs like Nowi and Nyx (love her writing, but really think they could have still gotten the point across with a different design) exist.
No. 271798
>>271779I would have mentioned him if I weren't responding specifically to the possibility of excessively young romance options being present as an option for younger players, in which case the sexual designs of Nowi and Nyx are what most makes the likely intent of loli/shota characters' repeated inclusion clear.
This is also why I said that Nyx's writing isn't the issue for me. It's difficult to defend her design to those who are made uncomfortable by it because at the end of the day, it IS a preteen girl's body in extremely revealing clothing. It's made clear in the game that her complex about her appearance isn't just because she's a womanlet, she really did stop aging very young as a result of her curse.

Like, you'll have Yukari having nearly the same backstory as the MC and relating to that so they gradually become closer but her goals are her own from the beginning and Mitsuru and Fuuka act normally with the MC and you can date them if you want, meanwhile Aigis' purpose to be the mandatory "uwu I'm forever devoted to (you), MC-kun" waifu even in the main story. The whole appeal of this series is that it's about random teenagers (and adults in P2) being stuck in shitty supernatural situations, and then they shove a fucking waifu robot in the middle of the game. Teddie did the whole "I want to become a real boy" archetype way better since he's a shadow and is important since the very beginning of the game so he doesn't feel out of place at all and he gets plenty of development
I can't stand his voice in English though… Other than her and Marie in P4G I don't think I dislike any of the main Persona characters nearly as much. I'm at the beginning of P5R though and if Morgana won't shut the fuck up he'll be on my shit list as well. I'm surprised the girl exclusive to P5R isn't shoved down my throat just yet like Marie and I started the second dungeon now.

>marieoh god you reminded me how much i fucking hate marie. literally the epitome of a character shoved in there for moids. i feel like persona 4 was worse with the pandering in a lot of ways - rise comes to mind as a fanservicey character thats just there to simp for the mc.

>>271854Fire Emblem has always been sort of degenerate and Nintendo has had a long and exclusive relationship with it regardless. It's the bizarre double standard around what parts of it are accepted and the way its embraces compared to other comparably bad media that stands out.
IMO the main shift nowadays is that FE has become less "degen as an aspect of its identity" and more "degen geared specifically towards profit". But that's a lot of stuff nowadays.

TLDR the velvet room attendant is specifically supposed to be the opposite sex of the mc and I don't think they'll change that. I also love Theo and I especially wish Atlus would just add a femc again like just about every other silent protagonist/self insert type jrpg has

One of them is literally just Kaneko's self-insert because a bunch of devs put themselves in P2 kek. However the Persona series takes place in the same timeline/universe as the Devil Summoner series, and Igor's equivalent is Victor and his assistant in Soul Hackers is Marie or Mary, and if anyone played Soul Hackers 2 I'd like to know if she shows up in that one. These two, Igor and all the Velvet Room attendants starting from P3 are named after characters from the Frankenstein novel iirc, I assume it's to reference the fact that they're not human but very similar to humans.

fuukas voice is annoying af and she's kinda bland (ik its a common opinion), fuck ken for obvious reasons and also his route with femc is disgusting, everyone else is ok.
p4 i don't really like anyone that much but for ai. ai is really underrated imo. marie is a guilty pleasure cause i like tsunderes. but everyone else i find either kinda bland or annoying. the friendship dynamics are good outside of the links tho which makes up for it.
p5… is the worst. i didn't actually enjoy any characters social links. i feel like they could've done a lot better.

Girls with ridiculous big ass self harm scars and men in wigs and clothes that don't fit is apparently peak diversity these days. Are we still supposed to believe troons are an oppressed class while having enough power to get these companies tripping over themselves to accomodate them? What makes these updates so bad is that they're forcing it on people. You just can't deactivate dumb pronouns and shit and now you have this.

I'm normally pretty bad at Souls games/souls-likes but I've really been enjoying Death's Door. It has everything I thought I hated about this type of game, i.e. challenging boss fights with phases, waves of enemies attacking you all at once, savepoints that make you trek back to the boss room and so on, but the game is so much fun that I can't get mad even when I'm getting my shit kicked in.

>>274453I think most people dislike the story for wrong reasons. It's either becausz a youtuber told them to hate it, because the translations made some specific characters ooc or very weird, or because they don't get Asian cultural references. For example the MC is supposed to be partially inspired by Buddha and that's why she (idgaf I played as female Kamui) seems too nice and too pacifist given the setting but that's the whole point. And she was born in the invisible kingdom which is basically hell from the story named "the spider string", and the final boss in the third DLC route wears a Buddha mask but the translators tried to make that place more like Ancient Greece because they thought Ancient India and China were too complicated for the American audience I guess. And Kamui is very OOC in Birthright because of said translation and acts like she likes revenge and killing people, and male Amerifats loved that shit because they could finallu self-insert in a character that "looks cool".
>>274475In FF7 everyone acts a bit more sassy and sometimes they're way more rude because 12 years boys in the 90s probably thought it's "cool" so you have Tifa calling Barrett a retard in English while in Japanese she's telling him to stop saying something that will bring them bad luck something like "don't jinx it". In FF8 Squall is way more sassy than in Japanese. Imagine if the Persona 3's wasn't just an introverted teenage boy but would also routinely shit talk others outside of the social links.

>>274414Absolutely BASED. I did remember about a year ago Syn Sophia put up job listings for an upcoming fashion game via Twitter so this is definitely what came out of it. They borrowed a lot of menu aspects from New Horizons it looks like or they're using a similar engine. Whatever it is… I hope there's multiplayer and the ability to wander around with other players and not limited to just sharing clothes. I wonder if any influences from Stylit will show up.

I’m in an FC in FFXIV Crystal. It’s mostly women in their 30s/40s and some men (but they’re typically respectful). We use VC to talk whenever we raid or whatever. Anyway one day out of the blue a new member joins with this obvious voice filter and starts talking about ERP. Out of curiosity I checked “her” twitter profile and he’s a “kinky trans puppygirl”.

>>274695Nta, but
nonny me too. I stopped playing after the Stromblood expansion was over and I never felt any better. In the end the community part was the only reason why FFXIV got ruined for me.
We had a FC with a big chunk of normies, cool women and men and then one of them turned into a MtF (long story short, he was an obsessed stalker of a woman who he thought was e-dating him (she wasn't), raged to the infinity and turned into a tranny, thinking he would get a gf that way, in the end started grooming mentally ill men (which were rare) on our fc into troonerism so he 'wont be the only one uwu'. After years he gave up and started dating another tranny).
FFXIV community q ended up being a bit worse because of that rage-baby streamer Asmongold, i remember how in xiv chat everyone would talk about nothing but him and wow, it was disgusting. I can only imagine how bad it is now.

I got a used copy of Engage and it’s the worst FE I’ve played.
Skirmishes scale with your highest leveled character, so training your weak units is a pain. Every chapter throws three new characters at you that outclass your old ones. They changed the way you acquire skills too, now you need to grind SP to get basic skills like Vantage. Paired endings are gone for some reason.
You fight the same irritating bosses over and over again. They even have multiple health bars because of “revival stones”, like they’re playing on Fates Phoenix mode. Oh yeah and they tell you their sad anime backstory before they die, that’s good writing, right??

I recently finished playing Who's Lila and I have such mix feelings about it. I enjoyed the first hour or two. It was fun making silly faces and slowly putting the pieces together. Learning something new with each exchange of dialogue. Then I hit road block. I didn't know what else to do. I've exhausted all the possible dialogue with different reactions.
The problem was I picked up the game without realizing it had some arg elements. You had to download a separate DLC and open up links scattered around. It was kinda cool ig? But even with all more efforts I got frustrated and decided to just google up what I needed to do. Some of things were simple like finding a passwords through a schizo document or the game's cover art. But other times there were things like changing your laptop date to witness an event that has happened in the past but it felt so stupid. You were already jumping between different time periods in game. Why did I have to do it for this specific event?
Having to read a walkthrough to get to the rest of the endings really soured my experience. I found much more enjoyment through simpler endings. I really loved learning about what type of person Tanya was before Lila killed her. Finding out about her insecurities of failure and how it effects the people around her. That human element was what encourage me to find out how things turned out the way they did. I love everything, from the ludicrous philosophies, the beautiful music and strange abstract art. but oh god did the arg elements make it unnecessarily complicated. It made everything such a drag.

NONNIE I finished Disco Elysium and i know it's corny but that shit changed my life.
I want to talk about it but I plan on doing a second playthrough. I just love it, the vibes, the look, the weird ass writing. Someone said it was made by people who didn't speak English as their first language? IS that true? Is that why the writing felt so "Unique" and "whimsical"? I don't know it gave it style. At first I made my Harry a Super Star Facists cop, lol. I always try to be a huge asshole.
I'd feel bad because when I met the
Racist Lorryman, Kim kinda scolded me and I love Kim from the start and I loved his voice actor. So I didn't want to make him mad but also didn't want to be fucking scolded for trying to be an asshole, however, he didn't really scold that much I feel like despite how cartoonish some of the characters were it also felt like they were real people. Like Kim basically seemed to think My harry was a huge racist (he was), and retarded weirdo (he was) but saw..something good in him. I thought at first he'd just hate me and seee nothing good in me because of how racists I was. I don't know what that says but it's definitely more "Human" then just the extreme way I'd expect it to go.
My favorite quest in the whole game is how I ran into the working class woman, literally pestered her about her husband, thinking it was going to some fucking dumb thing, where her husband WAS a drunk. It stayed at the back of my mind. Every scrote I met after that I wonderd if they were his husband. Only to find him dead from a tragic accident. Then having to tell her. That moment was tense and I had to do it twice because my computer died where I had to talk to her about it. The fishman's island or whatever it is called seemed so hopeless but also beautiful. I loved how comfty the little shacks were. You could tell that they were really loved and cared for. I don't know theres so much I love.
I also hated elizbeth, I hated everyone in the hardie boys, they annoyed me. Especially Elizibeth, I did not care theyDied in my playthrough most of them. Maybe i'm just heartless but lord I disliked them##

>>272216the adventure game Mystery of the Druids.
The protagonist Detective Brent Halligan is tasked by Scotland Yard to solve the skeleton murders, a grisly series of murders where skeletonized (it's a real word!) bodies are showing up across London. Halligan is picked not for his ability, but rather because he's the only person in the department left. In fact, everyone else in the department seems to dislike him for some unknown reason.
You soon learn why. Halligan is what can only be described as a beetle-like person, with no consideration for anything beyond what's currently his task. He is utterly grungy, has a 600 dollar debt at the local pizzeria (that he regards as a point of pride), used to smoke a carton of cigarettes a week, his office looks like a bomb went off, his shelf is full of conspiracy theory books, he has a habit of 'borrowing' things from his coworkers and never returning them, and made life difficult for everyone in the office by putting an arrest warrant for Prince Charles after Diana's death 'as a joke'. If you make the mistake of trusting Halligan or being friendly to him, you soon find out he will stab you in the back with zero mercy or hesitation in order to reach whatever his current goal is.
One highlight of the game is the part where you have to do a phone call. See, Halligan had a habit of making so many long-distance calls for spurious reasons that the police department now prevents him from making outgoing calls. So, he decides to use a pay phone to call in a lead for his investigation. The problem is, Halligan has misplaced his wallet, doesn't know how to find it, and nobody in the department will give him change because they hate his guts.
So in true Halligan fashion, what does he do?
Well, he finds out there is a hobo right next to the phone booth he wants to use, with some spare change. Halligan proceeds to steal medicinal alcohol from the Scotland Yard's crime lab, mixes it in with some apple juice he had on him, and offers it to the thirsty hobo as 'apple schnapps, from Detective Halligan's home distillery'. He steals from his police department, poisons the hobo, then proceeds to rob him blind, all so he can use the phone booth.
It's absolutely brilliant.

>>275826>there was proof in the books Dumbledore was gayIt's a bunch of implications that's easy to catch if you're old enough to know how the media treat gay people (because Rita trying to imply Dumbledore was a pedo targeting Harry constently after his death) and if you have a little bit of media literacy, which many of these people lack. A bunch of people guess that he was into Grindelwald correctly way before the confirmation in that one infamous interview, including the fan who explicitely asked about it to begin with, and the real question after that was "was Grindelwald actually reciprocating his feelings or was he manipulating him all along?" Although some people are maybe young enough to know about Dumbledore being gay from the interview BEFORE reading the book long after it got released, and many people only know the movies and are to this day whining that "muh childhood ruined" or whatever. If I managed to guess that by myself when I was like 12 or 13 years old as soon as the last book got released there's no excuse for anyone else I don't give a fuck. Although I was raised on 90s CLAMP manga so that probably helped kek.
tldr; Dumbledore is definitely gay in the last book for his evil ex-boyfriend but people don't know how to read or only watched the movies to begin with.

Any farmer here played the Far Cry 6 Insanity DLC? I have a lot of mixed feelings and wanted to talk about Citra specifically and the misogynist tone surrounding the her portrayal and how they handled the subject in general. I really hoped she wouldn't be so one dimensional, we get a little glimpse into her motivation and yeah Ik it's supposed to focus on Vaas and he's an unreliable narrator (which everyone seems to forget) but still. I can't quite put this into words, on one hand I like the vagueness and there is some nuance to it but on the other… Idk it feels like they tried to redeem Vaas by essentially blaming her for fucking him up and not caring about why she is fucked up enough to do it in the first place. I wish they explored their mutual trauma more because we clearly see that there is something wrong with her too and she has moments of weakness. Yeah, she manipulated Vaas and made him more fucked up but when her character is so underdeveloped and fetishized it feels like a misogynistic femme fatale trope when it's clearly so much more than that.
But mostly, I dislike how people reacted to it, I saw this woman on tumblr talking about how much she hated her and how she's so evil and all that shit and then go on and post about how cool she thinks Buck (the sadistic rapist who bought a slave) is. Like… It's so clear that if Citra wasn't a woman people wouldn't be saying shit like oh, she's the real villain on Far Cry 3! Because she's clearly worse than a human trafficking mass murderer trying to wipe out the natives or the Australian rape ape. Yes, she's a villain, but she deserves as much nuance as Vaas. Aside from that I liked how they explored Vaas' character.

And yes, you can play the third game first, is easy enough even 13 year old me was able to beat it, lol. RF1 is more difficult, you have to be careful during early game because you can die easily, and if you faint in a cave it's game over (that means, you have to start from your last save, you don't go to the doctor or anything.) Getting money is also more difficult, in my opinion. But RF1 has best girl Mist, and I have to say I quite enjoyed that the game was more challenging that RF3 or RF4.
They only started adding a female protagonist in the 4th game, so if you are not interested in playing as a male character that woos the girls in town, don't bother with the DS games. But I have to say that the majority of bachelorettes are not annoying ugu waifus, so I'm sure you can find one that you like.

There's a line Eido said something about the humanity-fallen conflict and some lore pieces that made me go "oh ok the writing room has nuance" but I don't think it really translated much into the storytelling/game and I doubt the politics of the last city will ever get mentioned again in-game. Ikora basically did whatever she wanted and the citizens that had issues with it were just sidelined but any story about refugees is bound to be complicated.
I don't care if a story wants to portray progressive or conservative sentiments just as long as it's well written which for the most part Destiny's lore and story is at least to me.

I've seen prices range from $95 to $150 for used ones in good condition. I bought a special edition one for about 200 dollars on mercari but it came loaded with games on it and already homebrewed which is nice.

>>276642I got a New 3ds as gift from my bf a couple years ago, never owned one as kid / teen, and I really like it! I think emulating is really easy and obviously cheaper, but I love the feeling of having a physical handheld console I can use anywhere rather than sitting on my PC. I think it would be better to buy one now rather than later, as the prices will only increase as time goes on. I love having a hacked console with custom themes and free games. I like 3ds more than Switch for handheld gaming as the Switch is much heavier, I actually got tenosynovitis for playing too much ACNH on it kekk.
I am currently trying to find cute custom casing / housing for mine but seems like there are none for the regular New 3ds, only New 3ds XL/LL.

>>276671>either pirate games on your pc or get a 3DS and emulate games on itSorry to nitpick but you don't emulate 3DS games on a 3DS, since you're playing them in the console they were made for. It's on PC, or any other platform, that you emulate 3DS games.
Anyway, I don't know why everybody's panicking over the eShop closing, just pirate that stuff lol

I finished my second playthrough of Disco Eluysium, the last time I've ever felt so attached and mentally in love with a game was fucking Walking Dead Season 1.
There's something about this game and every single character that makes me miss it. My first playthrough i was a fucking junkie/drunk who didn't care about anything but opening every door and check, i could'nt of course. I wanted to be the "Super Star Cop" and I do feel that was who Harry was, a huge fucking asshole with a huge ego who thought he was the shit. I was very into the "ex-something". I tried to shoot Cunoesse and wanted to kill Cuno, I could'nt do the chruch mission and I was very pissed off.
Second playthrough I was Acoplyspe Cop, I wanted to be a "Straight forward no bullshit cop" but thought it'd be funny to constantly talk about how the world was ending. WHILE ALSO being a ultra Liberal. In the end I had 300 real', I'd brought every single item of clothing from that dude selling them, I didn't drink or smoke, I didn't do any drugs. I also didn't put my skill points into anything and often had multuple points. I didn't recreit Cuno because Kim didn't get harmed. I didn't get to crack the code with that Skull girl and everytime I was always very weary on the Boat lady whose name I can't remember, but I did "Favors" for the Evert but I love the fisherman villege so I didn't let him do what he wanted I lied about it. At first I hated titus and his people, this playthrough I didn't hate them. Elizbeth still is annoying as shit to me. Even though the things I did the second time around didn't change "much" I still want to play again.
Maybe try a different build. I always make him a little "Spirtual" but I want to go full facist or full on fucking "Everything is a conspircy" because that shit was right anyway.
I'm realizing I don't even want to see everything like whats behind that door on the coast, or how I didn't get the Disco Dancers ID but I DID arrest her the second time I just miss the world. I love it, it's such a beautiful game. I don't know. It even made me want to write again for my own enjoyment.
It's definetly my favorite game of all time and I don't think i'll ever forget it. Maybe I'll give it a rest for a bit and play another build later. I want to reject my whole past personality and play it that way. I just can't stop thinking about it or talking about it. It's not even "Fun" in the normal way. I don't know i'm obessed. Such a unique amazing game, with great characters. (Im drunk sorry for all the spelling errors to the nonas who gave a shit to read it). I'd love to know how you played Harry if you played

>>276971Nonna, your Elysium sperging was legitimately the highlight of my night. I frigging adore this game and love hearing how other people play it. Your Detectives sound wild in the best way! I agree with you that the women are all really cool and chill characters.
I also don't much like Klaasje and find her one of the weaker written characters. Pale Driver is the best and I spent so much time talking to her.
My Detective was a low FYS high PSY build (3-4-2-3) with Shivers as signature skill. He died a couple of times in the early game
once by losing a fight with Measurehead and once from Evrart's hard chair. We're really playing hard into the
ex-gym teacher thing, because he convinced the neurotic bookseller lady to let her kid in from the cold and somehow got through to Cuno.
Lady Revachol talks to us constantly. Are we crazy, or truly in tune with our city? We may never know. He's not explicitly running from his past, but he's in no hurry to learn about it. He has never looked in a mirror, and only learned his name when he retrieved his case files. We spend a lot of our time listening to people, doing silly things to annoy Kim, and incidentally solving the case solely because we tugged at every other thread in Martinaise. Went Hobocop immediately but never picked up a real copotype.
Harry will never be a good person, but I did the best I could for him to leave Martinaise in a better place.
What's your favorite skill, gameplay and personality? I really like Physical Instrument; he's a prick but he's also weirdly encouraging in a way that makes me smile.
Must be the gym teacher shining through. Authority is a troll and I love him, but I disagree with his advice most of the time.

>>277006I'm guessing yes? Hacking a console is just about exploiting bugs and vulnerabilities in the firmware. The older your device's firmware, the easier it is to hack, that's why it's recommended that you don't update it to the latest version if you want to hack a console.
If you mean like getting games from the eShop, there are other ways to get the games other than through the official store.

When I was playing Xenoblade 2 I couldn't stop thinking about how Amalthus is basically Seymour from FFX if Seymour was actually well-written and relevant:
>blue
>priest to a fictional religion that's super important in the setting due to potentially illegal means
>are actively ruining the entire world just out of spite
>both backstories involves a dead mom and affects them greatly when they were small kids with already shitty lives
>Junichi Suwabe
>seems like an ally at first, becomes an antagonist mid-game
Again, Amalthus is so much more interesting it's not funny. That, the setting itself and the characters designed by Nomura kind of makes me feel like the game could have been a FF game if it weren't for the director leaving Squaresoft.

>>277659Yes and no. Most social links are different in FemC route (original game didn't have any of the male party members as available social links) and ime all of the changes are infinitely better than the male social links. Male route has models of the characters and portraits during most of the cutscenes, FemC route is done more in visual novel style where it only has the character portraits. Things like personas you can summon are identical iirc (Orpheus has a different design depending on the MC's sex).
My friend started a male playthrough while we're sharing a FemC run. According to him the male route sucks so bad compared to the female route and he's only playing through it for completion's sake. I've never played male route because I can't stand the thought of my yandere lesbian robot waifu being straight and because of certain scenes that would be insufferable to play as a guy ("Operation Babe Hunt", 'nuff said.) If it's your first time playing P3P, play FemC. She's infinitely better and has some sassy dialogue options that apparently aren't available in the male route. Playing FemC also gives you the option to choose between Elizabeth and Theodore as your Velvet Room attendant (picrel).
Sorry for mega sperg but FemC really is a better game according to most people who have played both. I hope you have fun playing Persona 3, nonna! I'd love to hear about your favorite characters and personas once you've had a chance to play a bit!

>>277659>>277661Having recently been playing both Male and Female MCs back and forth for a while since the game came out (as well as P4 cause my adhd ass can't just stay on one thing), my experience sofar is that–Male route is like, really written in that late 2000's latent sexist way, students flirting with teachers, bippy girlfriend social links that kinda forces you into cheating, etc, it's a bit of ick on the side of an otherwise great story, and the Female route has like, a lot of that really rewritten with most of the Male Route side characters replaced with honestly better written ones.
Like, I'm enjoying both experiences but like, if you're only planning on playing it through one time, I'd say maybe go the female route. If you're gonna play 'em over a lot go with your heart either way.

Anyway. All of this reminded me of how Final Fantasy could sell games just thanks to its brand name, and now people seem to be wary when they hear it. I guess it started FF13 because of American game "journalists" sperging about it being gay and Japanese and not a real RPG at the time? Was FF12 controversial when it came out too? Because tbh in my mind FF is kind of "over" for me as a series.

If you really aren't a 'vibes person' (the dev was heavily inspired by Lynch who is obviously notorious for not understanding his own plots) or at least not even somewhat, this game isn't all that great, honestly. But as a game that's more about the sensual experience (visual, audio, etc.) and storytelling with plenty of surrealism as a whole, if it's your cup of tea, its fantastic.
I'm kind of sad more people don't talk about this game, it definitely has its place and is a unique and artistic point-and-click murder-mystery game. I'm really not a huge gamer but this game was memorable to me.

they're all cool as hell. i've never really seen a series that swerved so hard from turning its women into waifu caricatures…especially their older women.
in picrel, everyone's late forties. barring the first woman who's maybe in her thirties. their age is never brought up as a joke or "mommy" fetishization.
it's tough to find anywhere to talk about that isn't annoying in some way though (discord's full of enbies and dominated by moids besides, 4chan's as it always is, etc.)

>>280746oh nona, I haven't checked out their games but I've noted them down in the past because I've seen some designs and I liked the style (the second old woman looks very familiar), I'm definitely more interested after reading your post.
I was under the impression that their games were only for mobile and it drived me off but honestly I didn't look that deep into it yet.

i should note that you can play the mobile game (limbus company) on pc as well as mobile. knowledge of the first two games isn't required, but i heavily recommend you give them a try ^__^.
>>280765embrace cheats.
https://www.nexusmods.com/lobotomycorporation?tab=popular+%28all+time%29i recommend gift chance boost, infinite lob points, infinite abnormality extraction (so you never get stuck with something game-ending), and the optimization mod if you end up having memory leak issues.
>>280754lobotomy corp is for pc; library of ruina is also for pc. the first is a management sim that's reminiscent of scp, the second is a deck builder. don't let that turn you off though, as the presentation is absolutely beautiful. get cheats for ruina too – i'm playing through without (sometimes i just want something autistically tough to relax my mind) so i can't really recommend any, but there's got to be good stuff on nexus.

>>282292A short hike; exactly what it says, you can even fly! Very short though.
Animal crossing; you’ve probably already played this or it’s crossed your mind.
Ooblets; heck yeah! Dumb tumblr humor and lol random but I found it really fun and very chill. It’s been buggy in the past but while I played it it was being patched, don’t know what state it’s in now but when I left it was playable.
Littlewood; so cute and chill, kind of repetitive but suffers from poor memory management (double check before you buy/play because it melted my laptop!)
Journey; oldie but a goodie! You fly around in this one too and if you get lucky you’ll find someone along the way to share the journey.
Stardew; you’ve probably played but it is a very chill game, highly recommend if you like farm games.
Super motherload; a dig down game, good fun solo or if you want to couch coop. Very linear but super chill.
Cloudpunk; good story, flying cars, very different atmosphere to the rest but I was sad when I finished it.
I recommend looking them up before you buy just to see if the aesthetics appeal and if there are any major bugs still floating around. Some of them can be played in an hour (journey, a short hike), a few hours (super motherload, Cloudpunk) or just indefinitely (stardew, animal crossing). Hopefully I’ve mentioned something you haven’t heard of before.
I haven’t got that far into Eastward yet, so I could just be salty. I’d recommend trying to find some gameplay reviews that don’t have spoilers to get more of an idea about its mechanics, it’s nothing like I thought it’d be based on what id seen and the start of the game (which kind of led me to think it wasn’t as serious as I thought it’d be and was actually just going to be a chill puzzle story game).

>>282920No, in Fates people absolutely gave way more attention to the "incest" than anything else. The only actual incest is the two main characters being cousins and you can marry them to each other but since they're from a royal family it's actually way more realistic than anything else going on in this game. The youngest character is a teenage boy that exclusive to Birthright that nobody ever give a shit about because he's playable but not a main character. You can pair up characters in the same age range anyway if you want and
it always cracks me up that Elise and Odin are supposed to be within the same range so I always pair them up.>>282917I actually don't really mind it either because Seteth is best boy anyway but I'm just more and more shocked everyday but this stupid fanbase.

Maybe Ryza is one of the latter? This design for example definitely belongs in the bad design thread.

>As far as I know there is no gender bullshit and no weird loli pedo pandering, and you still play as a waitress/barista.Meaning that Coffee Talk
looks like it's that sort of game, but it's actually safe as it doesn't have any kind of gender shit, so you can play it.
>>282852>Doesn't this game have an android that looks like a child and works as a prostitute.I've seen people defend that as her character being a statement against prostitution or something like that, since the setting is dystopian and the game's about listening to people's problems, after all. But I don't know if the characters are romanceable. If so, there would be no excuse to have her look like a child.
I've heard that game is pretty mediocre despite all the praise it got. Haven't played it myself but it does look like it's massively overrated, plus the stupid description always made me cringe:

>>282924Atelier series is just sad. The older games were geared towards female players and could even romance male characters. Around Rorona it started attracting a lot of moids and with Sophie the series became lot more scrotish then finally with Ryza they hit the nail to the coffin. Recent games won't even let you romance male characters(even if one has a crush on the main character, like in Nelke) and male character designs become worse and worse, while female characters become more and more coomerish. It's just another generic scrote pandering yuri series now. And since Ryza apparently sold better than all of the previous series combined, this is probably how this series will continue to be.
At the same time, though, Ryza's story is pretty normal and not that creepy like the character designs suggests. Maybe there is hope?

Also imo, of the newer games, Firis has a good amount of cute male characters including a chuuni househusbando, an autistic historian who is scared of women, a genki retard, and some non-playable male alchemists who are cute. A big reason why I like Atelier is because there are usually a couple of hot male characters in each game where if it was your typical scrote pandering series there would be none at all.

>>283647Depends on your criteria I guess, but the main guys are detailed because of all the backstories and plot twists you'll find across the series. On the other hand Kojima was a bit too influenced by the fanbase's shit taste and that's why we have Raiden as a cyborg now because god forbid Kojima actively tries to pander to young woman and gives us a bishonen protagonist.

I wish I had way more free time so I could go through my backlog. I think mine is kind of reasonable now because I have almost everything I wanted, the only game I want that I don't have yet is the new Bayonetta spinoff which was released just yesterday, and I don't have that many games I want to play among the ones I haven't started and finished yet. But they're so long. And I really want to replay some of them because of NG+ features and I want to replay all the mainline Pokemon games like right fucking now to compensate for SV being shit (supposedly, I haven't played it and we'll see how it'll go with patches and the DLC). I'm in the middle of P5R and I wish I could skip all the social links and cutscenes to play the actual game for some reason, I think I grew out of the how social aspect of the Persona games a while ago and I want to explore dungeons and complete the compendium.
How do anons with long backlogs deal with it? I really want to know. I'm posting screeshots of games I like little by little to keep track of my progress but I'm nearly considering streaming games once I play on NG+ mode for some of them if I ever have the opportunity to get a way more powerful computer and a decent mic.

>>279072Going to sperg about Temenos:
I started this a couple of weeks ago and I'm loving this guy. He's hot and snarky for sure, and it's made better by the fact that he's 30 (not that old, but older than average for JRPG ikemen). He's a detective-type character, and I think it's cute that he calls his Watson "little lamb", much to the guy's chagrin. And to top it all off, despite being the type of character who always seems like he has the upper hand while knowing more than he lets on, his cross paths with the younger girls, Agnea and Ochette, both involve him getting unintentionally bullied by them. It's cute and fun to see! He also does paper puppet theatres to proselytize to local kids, and the kids make fun of him when he forgets parts of the story. The little bit of pathetic spice really rounds out the character of this silver-tongued inquisitor investigating a string of cult-related murders.
I'm just enjoying the characters a lot more overall than I did with the first game. I also learned my lesson after having played the first, and am taking my time slowly exploring the world… 40 hours passed in the blink of an eye and I've still only barely scratched the game's surface. From what I hear, this isn't just a me thing– there's tons to do and see. Probably will be a strong contender for most enjoyable game of the year for me.

The Switch version of Voez comes with a button mode has anyone played it and can recommend it?

>>284824You can try Project Diva Megamix. From what I remember the base songlist is musty,
all the good ones were DLC. But if you haven't played any other Project Diva games it might be tolerable.

>>283828Maybe Ib. Other rpgmaker games I liked was Mad Father and Corpse party. To the moon is very atmospheric too.

>>284985If you're talking about Resident Evil, then the Resident Evil 1 remake is the best place to start.

Played ion fury last year and then forgot about it, picked it back up and I love how pretty some of levels are in this game, the revolver feels great to use with it's lock on system and the sound design sounds quite nice, I'd recommend this game for people who enjoy boomer shooters or like the retro style.
