Downtime was caused by the hosting service's network going down. Should be OK now.

An issue with the Webring addon was causing Lynxchan to intermittently crash. The issue has been fixed.

>>5907 This is thebgood post police soeaking: you are now ordered to cuckchan back to 9gag
>>5896 >these under the hood stuff stopped because of some delusions of cost effectiveness and probably diversity hires It always was because of the Online aspect, tons of details means tons of metrics which means tons of sync/ping variants which means potential for massive lag, which is something that happened very often in IV's online as cars glitched often because of their suspension simulation going out of sync all the time in full servers. Airport was popular for many reasons and one of those is because the game didn't load many things compared to Manhattan hence running better than usual. Cops N Robbers mode was lag galore for example. Obviously these don't mean a thing for single player other than abusing and getting your fps down to 20 but that could be tolerated due to happening in special occasions (exploding 10+ cars in a crowded area) Taking away all those little things meant that Online ran much better and optimized, it was a streamlined experience. >the Houser brothers fucked off from the vidya business because they said it was too sensitive and stuff. They lost the plot since V due to their personal problems in life, writing sucked major ass and their respective supervision seemed to be pretty bad due to several plot holes and seeming lack of knowledge from the previous game which is why people are still debating if V is canonically in the same realm as IV. Benzies which was the gameplay producer had a quarrel with them since mid-development and was fired unceremoniously after the release, sued, won and is currently making some MMO. RDR3 also sucked hard for the same reasons along with a poor gameplay concept, it's a game with great gameplay mechanics and details yet the plot justifications for actions (aka missions and "rules") and map (aka areas of applied mechanics or "levels") do not take advantage of these advancements. It's like being given a sports car but you can only drive it at 60kmph in an empty one-way street. Rockstar had their days counted since the exodus of the old dev teams around 2009 and 2010 along with the major employment of nudevs to fill those voids for the release of Max Payne 3 and V. >>5884 That is true, last time i replayed i spend much more time in early game going around fighting hand to hand with thugs, getting ATM and armored car money along with ammo hoarding from knocking out fat cops. I still think it needed more side activities for that extra immersion like San Andreas had with burglaries, drug transport, hood safehouses and so on. Even the randomized vigilante minigame had potential if it wasn't for the limited timers that reset (unlike old games that accumulate) and the armored thugs that appear sometimes making the only option to stop them being via assault rifle or RPG... and this is in early game. >>5907 It wasn't San Andreas but it was very solid, V on the other hand was a step down in many aspects alongside the actual Reddit-tier plot which even had the cutscenes made in the annoying modern fashion: Shaky camera, random zooms, random humor, lack of development from characters (while otherwise changing their scenarios drastically yet not their personality), too many characters and lack of coherent priorities for a discernible end goal... it is hilarious to think that Franklin, the unchanging blank state nigger meant to be a pseudo-spectator/player's avatar, is the best character of the bunch mainly because it doesn't do anything aside from smoking weed and being forced to pick ending options which punishes you for picking anything but the one the writers intended to despite the story's inertia and motives implying other options.
>>5907 Reddit and cuckchan don't like it, so go back to your circlejerk chamber.
>>5910 V is truly shit and VI is gonna be even worse.

Fuck man, I miss when cutscenes were a reward for overcoming a challenge and beating a portion of the game. Whether they were state-of-the-art CGI or in-engine, they always had an immense impact on you when you actually deserved them. Despite a lot of games even having simple short stories they became iconic and legendary due to this, each and every moment burned into memory. Now compare to all this modern slop with HUNDREDS of hours of cutscenes literally nobody remembers, where it's all about muh story, story, story with game as an afterthought.

It should be 'cutgameplay' now as gameplay occasionally intercuts hours of cinematics.

>>5829 No, but it's the last classic FF so it's still fantastic.
In the '90s devs considered cut-scenes as indeed part of the game, of the whole package. As mentioned it was incredibly hard to even make a cutscene, hence why awfulness like FMV became a thing. It's hard to say if the cut-scenes would of remained in that same category since the chase for 'muh cinematic just like moobies' has completely steamrolled the craft. There will never be such a time again.

Squeenix is losing money. I won't be surprised if they're bought by Soyny or something. Really sad state of things thinking back on their illustrious work in the past. FF16 won't be a big hit that's for sure and Forwoken undermined their brand really hard.

>>5824 No, but it wouldn't exactly be surprising if they were the ones to spread it. Good. I was kind of worried the FF7 numake would keep them afloat for a little longer.
>>5821 Its due to their incompetence. Dragon Quest 11 of all things sold like crazy and it was a by-the-numbers turn based rpg. Squeenix keeps trying to make Final Fantasy more than it is and they're paying for it.
>>5828 Now they're trying to turn DQ into muh serious RPG as well.
>>5830 And it's already getting censored.

Is speedrunning full on autistic? I can't imagine a nightmare worse than replaying the same game over and over again thousands of times just to get on some irrelevant leader board. They don't even like the games they run. Do not confuse trying to get good at a game and beat it efficiently with actual speedrunning autism.

>go to any speedrunning site >80% of games are old, pre 7th gen lmao, speedrunning a modern game is just holding X to skip cutscenes
>>5874 None of them seem to have glitches that help with going faster either. They just have the shitty glitches that make characters do wonky movements or break the game to unplayability and other such trash that old school devs would feel never ending embarrassment over.
>>5875 And obviously the game designed has changed, or rather disappeared. How do you speedrun a modern empty open world wasteland game, even GTA speedruns take like 5 hours and those have so much going on to mess with.

I love Lara so much anons
>>5755 Pajeets hate whitey even though their entire culture stems from whitey and a ton of their upper caste are very white, who they also hate and resent btw, but these whiter Indians, smaller in number are not as cucked as western whites. These pajeets only exist due to excess aid from western countries and so like the subhuman animals they are they bite the hand that feeds them most. And of course they are somewhat traditional outside of the cities but the majority of Indians live in cities, and cities are as libtarded as you might think, hence their natural subversive nature/hatred of whites/jew cock sucking. t.

Silent Hill Anonymous 03/05/2023 (Sun) 16:38:00 No.1124 [Reply] [Last]
There is no “Other World” in the original Silent Hill and the fog world is the real world that’s already been over run by monsters and everyone has already been killed while the dark world is Hell merging with reality. All the nurses in Silent Hill have been “impregnated” with demons just like Cybil had. Lisa died because she became fully taken over by the parasitic demon while the parasite in Cybil was killed by the aglaophotis Harry had. Silent Hill 2 takes place in a completely different version of Silent Hill because the series was originally meant to be an anthology before Team Silent was pressured into making a follow up to Silent Hill 1’s story and at that point they just mixed mashed the two different concepts of Silent Hill into the confusing mess it is know for today

>>5065 You stupid ugly bitch. You dumb fucking cunt.
>>5838 well, there are a few things that can get an improvement that would not destroy the game, like the fucking zombie ghosts and they just multiply if you aren't careful enough. Also, the UI in old silent hill 1 to 3 had a great design, just a bit clunky but the user interface didn't take you away from the game, it made sure you could actually do whatever you needed to do. That isn't hand-holding. >>5839 yeah, these whores will never be happy, even when the games are now, really just hand tailored to them and still they complain. It is fucking insane but the good thing is that it isn't sustainable because video games today costs too much money, and it makes people more conservative in what they buy. I still buy random games, the latest is Mortal 1 Kombat, and I like it but that is more because it is a pure nostalgiab8 even when it has ugly women, in it like a fucking gorilla looking nigger but the game is as stupid if not more stupid than the 95 movie.
>>5840 SH4 UI was already very video-gamey and general audience oriented.
>>5840 >95 movie Absolute kino.
