I did this 9 years ago on a long dead imageboard and I want to do it again. For Christmas, I'm giving away some games on steam to you lovely people. Leave your steam ID here and I'll message you. Nothing too pricey so that I can give to as many people as possible, around ~7$ or lower with some wiggle room. I don't need anything in return, so enjoy!

It's easiest to start out as War Veteran, most straightforward playstyle (just keep in mind that other classes take a turn for switching weapons).
You get XP by learning of new enemies/items rather than kills, most enemies are only worth killing if they're an obstacle to somewhere you need to be and you can't run around and block the path behind you (doors can be jammed if you have spikes, just press to close the door an extra time after you've already closed it).
You can't spend forever at one depth, you need to budget your mental stability to last you to the stairs downwards.
Potions with negative effects aren't useless, since you can throw them at enemies.
If you don't have a numpad you can move diagonally with Right/Left arrow +Shift for up, +Ctrl for down, but it's much more comfortable to play on numpad. Check the F1 manual for other keys, you'll need most of them.
Undead corpses rise again if you don't destroy them, kick them with same key you kick down doors with.

How the heck do you deal with the invisible guys that show "something claws you"? All my runs that lasted past the 4th or 5th floor have died to them.

Fun game though, pretty simple to pick up compared to a lot of the roguelikes I've played.

There are scrolls of see invisible, and some invisibles are rendered visible just by turning on the lantern. Also the "vigilant" trait shows the location of nearby creatures regardless of visibility.
I usually just outrun them since you don't usually have that many identified scrolls as a non-occultist, and they don't tend to chase you that far and they just hit you if you stay/go somewhere they can reach.

I haven't seen any recently. You could make one. Just go nuts on that screenshot button and write it as you play so that you don't lose track of what happened in the past in the game.
Or at least write it one section at a time, so that it has some sense of narrative and you can be surprised when surprising things happen.

I feel like these game are super comfy. Along with bunny hopping, there are many reasons why these games are just better than newer games in their series'. TF2 doesn't have concs, making it super slow, and csgo has loads of problems.

Why are older games so much better?

I work at a retro game store, and have only seen one come in for over a year (which I bought myself)
I've been having a blast with the Vita, definitely my favorite handheld of all time.
I soft modded mine, and it can play some RPG maker games and PC VNs.
It runs PSP games better than a PSP, emulates a ton of systems, and is a swiss army knife of retro gaming in general.
The memory cards are prohibitively expensive though, which is a definite downside if you're not using an SD2Vita card.
Currently I'm having a blast playing Freedom Wars, although it gets frustratingly hard near the end.

>>662 you can install VPKs through Vitashell, you can also wirelessly move them to your Vita using Vitashell's FTP function.
There are other methods for installing games, most sites that host files explain the process.

>>651 I definitely reccomend JPKG, Easy RPG, Cavestory is always a good pickup, and you'll probably want the Higurashi VN program which can interpret a ton of VNs. There is also a solid PSP emulator, but I don't remember the name off the top of my head.

I have like 7 folders of Vita games. And yeah its hacked. I really only touch it when I'm on public transit though. I've enjoyed it more than my 3DS. I'm still a little mad Sony just let this great handheld die and paid more attention to its big brothers. Being able to play old PSP favorites is probably the best thing about it in addition to its newer shinier games. It's also a decent PS1 emulator and the smaller screen doesn't stretch those games as bad to the point it needs anti-aliasing.

You can find replacement sticks from China pretty cheap. Sony was smart and made the sticks separate from everything else. In fact, all the controls are on their own PCBs. ifixit has a guide on doing the repair.

I completed Trails of Cold Steel a couple of nights ago. The framerate at times wasn't great but the game is turn basd anyway so who cares. I really enjoyed it.
Now I'm starting Freedom Wars. So far the story seems a little boring but the gameplay is very fun and I like the character customisation anr visual style a lot.

WiiU appreciation Thread Anonymous 08/11/19 (Sun) 16:28:22 No.742 [Reply]

Even if Nintendo got almost everything wrong with this console starting from horrible loading times to censoring content, I still find it extremely comfy - the menu music, the forgotten games, the whole experience still has something other consoles do not have.

What are you playing right now? I'm going through Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE. I was mad when they showed that it wasn't gonna be a true SMT x FE back in 2015, but a colourful, cool and comfy adventure in modern Tokyo with an idol show business setting is good too.

>>994
Maaan I miss the Virtual Console. The New NES/SNES Online is such a step down in terms of content. They must have lost lots of publishing rights with the new generation since all they publish on Switch is minor publishers like Jaleco. WiiU VC had everything, even Turbografx games! Probably with the rise of mini consoles everyone thought it was better to make their own collections/thing and to ditch Nintendo's service.
Online emulator play on Switch is nice though I must admit.

Even with all the DLCs there's some big differences between games. Among them is the revamped battle mode, the 200cc time trials, the extra characters such as king boo, inklings, etc. and the comeback of the double item box and also the ability to carry 2 items at the same time. Regarding items there's the feather and the boo which aren't in the WiiU version and there's also the difference in stats between karts and characters, so instead of there being like 8 different "tiers" or so there's like 13 on the switch.

And there's the thing known as firehopping or something like that which seemingly was removed on the switch so even the way to move through stages might have been modified a bit. So yeah, they knew what to add to make it worth it to buy it on the switch.

Ah yeah, with the sudden realization that it sold poorly people starting collecting the games and consoles for the "game collector" badge and coupled with corona the prices went through the roof while they started becoming more scarce. And with them killing the eshops of some regions and removing games nobody would fault you for modyfing the system I guess. In any case hope you can get to play soon!

Yea, see, college is nothing like real life. I work with computers quite a lot, and a lot of the computers I work on are never Macs. They tend to be old Compaqs/HPs or Toshibas aka the shit you get from Walmart. And in this group, these people get Windows because it isn't that much harder to use and it comes with the computers. Plus a lot of their software is often Windows only anyhow. Again, people don't buy Macs just like these people aren't getting Alienware or the Surface Book. Too expensive.

The use of consoles especially among older people is likely from the massive PC vs Console difference in terms of games of the past. When people bring up great 90s games, a lot of people mention Quake or Serious Sam along with all those cartoony adventure games OR they mention games like Mario Bros or Final Fantasy. I mean, how many people were playing Quake on their tv back in the 90s like people play CoD on a tv now? Kids nowadays are playing Minecraft which while on consoles, I think the rise of Let's Players has resulted in younger generations of kids getting into PC gaming, kids are also playing more games on a smartphone or tablet. The next generation of gamers seem to favor more multi-function devices like smartphones and PCs over consoles.

Also;
>Apple
>fashionable

Good one, but my iPad is the least fashionable piece of tech I own. No crazy colors, overly minimalistic, the newer iPad Pro looks tacky as shit when you charge that overpriced "Apple Pencil" in the lighting port. Apple is the grandma of tech if you want to talk about nice looking devices. Now something like Asus looks pretty nice despite going for the minimal look.

Don't apple have their own "genius" pseudo monopoly on maintenance?

With pc gaming having the better controls, hardware and options it's easily taking the more dedicated gamers, and mobile shit is eating up the casual players. Consoles are being ripped in half, their only real future is probably portable consoles. I dare say there's not going to be enough room in the marketplace for sony, microsoft and nintendo soon.

Apple is still fashionable in the same way a corpse sits up by it's own rigor mortis. But it is still sitting.
I'm pretty certain the apple vogue will be replaced within the next half decade. Not sure what will replace it though since there's no dominant force of such magnitude in computing, it's pretty fractured.

True, and a lot of there stuff is soldered and being based on BSD, macOS doesn't have the same issues that Windows often does. But again, the bulk of people I help often cannot afford a Mac in the first place, my main point is that Macs are pretty uncommon, only people who are students, got plenty of money or really scraped and saved have a Mac, everyone else just buys a computer with Windows or builds it and then puts Windows on it.

I agree with your second point but I feel that it's more that people want more functionality from their devices more than "casual vs dedicated". A popular casual game, Just Dance is on the PC and emulators as well as companies trying to push mobile gaming to more hardcore heights with special hardware like controllers and more serious titles makes me feel that devices that only serve one purpose, much like the MP3 Player or iPod before it are getting further pushed out.

I hope that we get tech in awesome/cute colors again. When I had a Lumia it was a pretty nice cyan color, otherwise I'm going to have to spraypaint my next phone or something. Everything is just grey/black/gold and sometimes white.

The only thing that pisses me off is that, you have to put something akin of 50 dollars to have enough space to collect all the ships
