Merry Christmas, anon. You are invited to this year's >>>/christmas/ event. This project aims to gather anons from different board from inside and outside 8chan and hang out together and have fun. The planned date is December 14 and 15, so I hope I'll see you there. If you have any questions about the event, please make me know here or in the organization thread >>>/christmas/3691

IT'S OVER IT'S TIME FOR THE BIGGEST VIDEO GAME EVEN OF THE YEAR™..... ARE YOU EXCITED TO VOTE FOR YOUR TOTALLY UNBIASED SELECTION OF THE BEST VIDEO GAMES OF THE YEAR? READY OR NOT, IT'S COMING..... Who do you wish to win? Who do you think will win? What funny shenanigans will occur this time? Will Geoff Keighley drop the facade that he isn't just a paid industry shill who should fuck off and realize he will never be taken seriously no matter how many big events he plans like this?

>tfw the only decent modern God Game is worldbox. This thread is to talk about the almost dead genre of God Games a simulation subgenre where you play as the almighty deity and watch shit unfold or at the very least manipulate a somewhat complex simulation to get a specific outcome. Examples include Sim Earth, Worldbox, Black and White games and some other. >Do City Builders count? Depends. I personally don't count them in the genre as I believe that God games are about manipulating a sandbox environment and watching shit unfold rather than about solving logistical challenges and city planning, but some people consider it a part of the genre. >What are the good games? EarthSim, Black and White, Wordlbox and that's about all of the ones that I could find. Galimulator is also a thing if you want to do nothing more than just watch things unfold rather than have more control over the simulation. Species is incredibly janky and also in the "watch shit unfold" category but it's a cool evolution simulator. You can change the way that things evolve by introducing different environmental challenges or fucking with their genetics to see what kind of abominations you will come across. Some people consider Spore a part of this category, I would not agree with them but if you can get over the pain of not getting the version promised to you it can still somewhat scratch the itch.

Suggested from >>1031266 in the sexy sprite thread The idea is very simple: You take your GIFs & convert them to APNG. Why would you want to do this? Let me explain >APNG is usually smaller in file size vs. GIF while still maintaining the same quality >thus, APNG images in posts endlessly loop without having to click on them due to the smaller filesizes. <GIF animations not so much even with the fewer frames of animation Based on my testings, here is what I have determined to get working APNG animations on the posts in this site >must not exceed above 25.00 KB in file size >must not exceed above above 220px x 220px in image size Use this website to convert your GIFs to APNGs: https://ezgif.com/gif-to-apng Then repost them if they meet the above criteria.

Recently played STP and has surprisingly fun time with it. I thought it'd be doki or Stanley Parable clone but it ended up being this bizarre horror love story. The director's cut is this fall and thought it's a better time to discuss this weird little game. What routes were /v/'s favorites?

I wanted to make a thread for this since it seems every day there's either a massive amount of industry layoffs or some publisher splitting off. Most recently Toys for Bob and Saber Interactive have split from their previous holders with rumors of Gearbox being sold off or going private after splitting off from Embracer like Saber just did. Additionally 505 have just shut down a bunch of offices in Spain, Germany, and France. Since just last holiday there have been over 15,000+ layoffs in the video games industry with a lot of companies restructuring like Embracer and Sony after deals with the Saudi's and the Chinese have basically gone sour. This is in addition to games like Spider-Man 2 (2023) costing over 300 million dollars and with the constant failures of live service games, it makes sense why the industry is experiencing a soft crash as it were. It remains to be seen what will come of the video games industry and what will rise from the ashes. I'm expecting to see more smaller publishers pop up while the current publishers will focus on making smaller games with tighter budgets. That being said no one really knows where the industry will go from here. sources: https://archive.ph/YI6OK https://archive.is/ZzK5C https://archive.ph/3z9RF

/v/ I'm here to say after playing it via emulation of the Switch version that Unicorn Overlord is a masterpiece , 10/10 and as the kids would say GOAT. If not for the fact Elden Meme's DLC is coming out and the potential of Metaphor: ReFantazio, I would say this is JPRG of 2024 hands fucking down. This might even surpass Odin Sphere: Leifthrasir , Dragon's Crown and 13 Sentinels: Aegis Rim as Vanillaware's best game, it's that fucking good. <But anon you just spend the first bit of this post practically on the knees sucking it off why are you saying not buy it? The localisation of this game is not great and if you're a Vanillaware fag like I am you should not support the English version of this game period, if you want to support Vanillaware go buy a JP copy of this from Amazon jp or other moon storefront. Yes it's not totally pozzed like say FE or others have been but it still changes the tone and intent of the game >WHO CARES IF THE DIALOGUE IS FLOWERY ANON? You should care as it's still an alter of the original work and an utter disrespect of Vanillaware >WHERE IS THE PC VERSION YOU NIGGER? There is none as for whatever reason the CEO of Vanillware is super butthurt towards PC as platform, which is a shame as the mods of this game would be amazing and patches to unfuck the localisation would also be very welcomed. I think this would've added another 500k sales or even more if it was on steam as let's face it consoles are pretty much dying, even in Japan PC has gotten pretty big (not big enough where it's fully taken over like the west and Slavland), even Atlus was scratching their heads on why Vanillaware asked them to not allow a PC version. >DOES THIS GAME HAVE WAIFUS? Yes it does and they are all amazing but if you're a hag lover like myself Yahna is best girl. >WHERE CAN ONE EUMLATE IT? Ryujinx is what I used and I'm unsure if there are others, so perhaps a kind anon could correct me. <Closing notes If you're looking for something that beats modern FE(FE: Three Houses wasn't too bad but I understand why people might not care for it) this next to StellaGlow will fill that Strategy JRPG niche. How many hours you anons put into it and and who were your favourites? Also SCARLETT A SHIT!

now that we are on the second half of the year. What games released this year had /v/ played? bonus points if you write what you think about them i only played 3 >Balatro Basically poker but rogue-like it's breddy good, was very fun at the begining but after wining a couple of runs i got bored quickly, but i still once in a while return to it to do a couple of runs. >Crow Country it was a nice surprise, a new survival horror with interesting enemy designs, i haven't played the hard mode added after release so i can't say much about that, but for what i've played, i felt it leaned too much on the easy side. >Nine Sols Hollow knigh meets Sekiro's gameplay. without a doubt my GOTY for this year. is a game that did everything well especially the gameplay, when it click it fucking CLICK, and it has the best bosses in a while.

I dunno why. But I just like some bad games. Like You are Empty. Despite looking linda like ass, being buggy. Story not making sense and feeling like someone who hit the crackpipe wrote it. And english voiceacting is super bad. But enjoyed playing it. Either because of the depressing soviet artstyle. Or the fine gameplay loop. I just find it fun. What about you anon

I've been thinking about this for a while, mainly after playing a few rounds in the Arcade mode of Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 that came with my Game Pass subscription. Do you guys think Call of Duty killed the modern arena shooter? I'm asking since we don't really have an active platform in these types of games outside small communities that gather together on a Friday night. I'm mainly concerned since I remember looking for a classic FPS to play with a group of 16 people, and I just couldn't find one. The numbers are too little for there to be a sustained player base. This comes after the failure of Halo Infinite which was really killed by Microsoft's desperate desire for a live service game for the Xbox platform. This isn't to say I don't enjoy Call of Duty, as it IS a guilty pleasure of mine to fuck around and shoot people without thinking about it. Although my main concern is that games like Quake don't really exist anymore since there aren't any people willing to join a match at 3AM on a Tuesday, which is sad, but it appears to be the reality of the situation that only games like Call of Duty have the numbers to support a PVP Team Deathmatch like mode. I know Ubisoft tried putting out a F2P version of Call of Duty called XDefiant, although it failed due to Ubisoft refusing to put the game on Steam because they're kinda retarded. What do you think about these popcorn shooters like Call of Duty, Halo, XDefiant, Quake, etc?. Do you think they deserve the fate of being lost to time, or is it just an issue of promotion.
