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.

Stellar Blade Anonymous 03/26/2023 (Sun) 06:30:41 No.1717 [Reply] [Last]
https://y.com.sb/watch?v=RAynTNAmj_E As Japan has fallen to the pozz, Korea takes up the mantle. Stellar Blade is Korean-made character action with hot booba lady in tight yoga pants. Day 1 buy. If you can recall, this was the game some soy journo called "baed and outdated" while praising the potato sack from Forwoken as both were revealed.

>Korea >not pozzed They literally had a feminist cult controlling their society for years and probably still do. That's not tinfoil conspiracy that's an actual thing that happened.

They were suiciding men and boys for years using poison, that's where the fan death syndrome came from, assassinated the old prime minister and soft cuoped the whole country, they still haven't come close to rooting out all the evil shit these women are still up to.

Do you miss them? Or are they antiquated? On the one hand, they couldn't compete with the lightning fast and continuously updating information online, but on the other hand, I think they were more than just a printed slice of latest info and had an entire culture about them.

Come to think of it Superman 64 was one of my first experiences with the character, it's probably why I fucking hate him.
>>5472 I never lived in a country so it's hard for me to imagine the concept of nobody having a gaming magazine. >I would stumble into trainwrecks like Superman 64 thinking "oh hey neat a superhero game" Yeah that sucks but there was also some excitement in that wild unpredictability of what you get.

The rental store my parents would take me to when they felt like treating me was around a 40 minute drive away in a town that only existed because it was near an interstate. >>5483 I bet they were considering every individual star its own "level" when they wrote that. It's one hell of a lie either way lol

last good nintendo console
>>5387 You're right about both those points. Other than the analog sticks N64 controllers were even tankier than Gamecube controllers, when I was a little elementary school tardlet I'd drop and throw them hard as fuck or stomp on them and they'd still work just fine afterwards (besides the god damn joystick of course). Why was the OG Xbox controller made so fucking fat and weird anyway? I found an old one while going through boxes in my house recently and it still felt retarded huge and awkward even though my hands are twice the size they were when I got it as a kid. It seems like Microsoft deliberately made it stupid.

It seems like Microsoft deliberately made it stupid. I remember there being a writer for GameNOW who referred to it as "the hamburger," and that's always felt apt to me. I remember it feeling like a big, sloppy burger that's about to start spilling its contents all over the place because you can't get a good enough grip on it.

Why did the 3d platformer genre lose popularity in the 00's? Afterwards it was mostly licensed games chasing trends and then it all stopped entirely.

Zoomers shouldn't be allowed to emulate. Gatekeep these vermin out of gaming.

>>4651 >Gamergay happened >It is true everything went shit around that date. It's even worse than that. Everything went to shit with the popularization of the iPhone and social media in the late '00s, and with all the collectivizing effects that came with it. Before then there was no easy way to directly propagate trends or enforce "accountability" through visibility. The best you could do until then was protest IRL or do some gay letter writing campaign and hope the media thought the public as a whole had enough interest in what was going on to bother picking it up. Sometimes the people in the media with their bullshit arts educations would chase after their own cause like aids or something, but they couldn't ever go whole hog like they can now. After posts and hashtags on social media started to be understood as the mood of the people, the job of the media to judge what was newsworthy got democratized. Now the media could delegate all responsibility for their focus onto the consumers of the media. They were all on social media and all had a chance to have their say, after all, even if that's not really how it works and they know it. Effectively now if there was a loud enough group of people whining or yelling about something then as a show of hands they could game the system, and in the game of who can collectively make the most noise the 1st place goes to women and 2nd place goes to activists. Given that reality, it's no wonder that the vector for destruction in almost every scenario for the past 15 years has been feminists or something adjacent enough to them. Everything has flowed from there and the flow will never, ever stop until women and activists stop having phones. So make sure you shake your head extra hard when some dummy who has had their head in the sand for all these years optimistically tries to say "Don't worry, the pendulum is about to swing back".

Ambitious videogame projects that were never completed as intended Anonymous 05/10/2023 (Wed) 09:35:04 No.2876 [Reply]
Pic related and Shenmue are two great examples. Both were supposed to be a longer series. Do you have other examples?

>>2876 If that was completed, it would be easily my favorite RPG. I can't stand modern JRPG's because I hate the anime looking childlike characters. I find it bizarre. Even Xenosaga has too much anime influence for me to want to play it.
>>5111 Sorry for the doublepost, but good browsing music. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3c3po95AZk
>>5111 >I hate the anime looking childlike characters. I find it bizarre Why? It's just anime.
>>5125 I think it's partly because of the improvement of graphics. It used to be possible to forget that you had anime children in your party. Now it's not. Hard to suspend disbelief and feels kind of gross even. Also way too many female characters in modern JRPGs.

It seems common to say these were poor transitions to 3D graphics, but I think they still hold up today. Especially SA1, its open-ended world and impressive early online features are a standout.
