system shock 2 is very immersive

>>760 this one was fun! very replayable and i love the art style thanks anon!

>>764 hard as balls, but very cute! the hidden ending was pretty clever

>>764 Got to the final boss with the teeth and had to call it for the night. Really fun but difficult! Thanks for the rec anon

> buy the Elden Ring's DLC no fuck goatse ring

>>703 I'll only buy the DLC only if the map is huge

>>702 Really excited now that we're closer. I used some of my paid time off for it, maybe a little too much.

>>722 THIS IS THE DAY, fren! DLC is out, have you played it? I'll install it tonight but first I need to kill mohg to enter the dlc land. have you beaten mohg yet?

meh.

It was fun guys but I turned off the server due to lack of activity

>>653 Geez, I was just starting to build my house. Still, it's understandble that paying for a server where nobody plays in is a pure waste of money. But, can you at least share the world save as a memorial?

>>654 Okay... But I will take if out if it overconsumes bandwidth: https://unreadable.info/bck.zip The user passwords were hashed, so theres nothing to hide there

>>655 You probably shouldn't include the logs in that, they have the players' IPs

>>456 love the 'craft

The only games that gives me PTSD from my childhood is Mario Lost Levels

>>248 Monster Ock from Spider-Man 2000 gave me nightmares as a kid

timesplitters 2 on hard mode is the most impossible shit I've never done I thought I was about to die in real life when I beat the wild west mission because I felt my heart unindent my chest when it happened

>>247 CoD:WaW on Veteran.

>>247 Fucking God Hand. There are parts of this game that I was stuck on for days and days trying and failing miserably. When the game drops like 20 of the hardest enemies on you on the last level, I thought it was just beyond me, but I SOMEHOW managed to get through it just barely alive.

>>307 I've just finished Chaos;Head for the first time and it's a pretty wild ride, really fun! As the other anons said, they're in the same universe, but only loosely. Websites like @channel and some occasional references to each other (except with Robotics;Notes Dash as said above) but otherwise don't interact. Id say just pick one and play it, Steins;Gate is just the most well-known of them, but honestly feel any is fine to start with.

>>306 I only played Chaos;Head & Child, Steins;Gate. my favorite of them all was definitely Chaos;Child. chaos head was good and has my favorite girls but chaos child just does everything else the best. the story and the art etc. just a shame there was no nanami or what was her name,.. the other sexy loli girl. norriii, kerpeww! girl. ah she was the cutest. I saw there was a new release of the games for switch a little while ago. I heard it was censored somehow etc. but I don't have a switch. someone tell me what they think of robots;notes and whatever else has come out since :p I'm curious. I was obsessed with this whole series years ago but I've fallen off with it since 2016 about. Chaos Head was always the most cozy for me. playing as takumi makes you feel like you're always escaping real life to play as another person, trying to escape their own life and it really gets you into it that way.. hiding in your little cave and playing online. only to be bothered by a bunch of sexy gurls, stalked by some make a wish kid who threatens you. the game gave me the dream of living in my own little hole in the middle of shibuya one day.

>>589 >someone tell me what they think of robots;notes and whatever else has come out since :p I'm curious I played Robotics;Notes a couple years ago, and man I have a lot to say... Robotics;Notes is inspired by mecha anime. A lot. Back when I read it I hadn't seen a lot of mecha at that point, but I could still tell that it was just a huge tribute to that whole genre. Its story feels a lot like highschool club slice-of-life anime, a robotics club in this case. But then, a whole lot of conspiracy-theory shit happens and it takes a huge turn in a completely different direction. I guess it's sort of the same as Steins;Gate in that regard. Also, there's a lot of references to Steins;Gate. There's a twitter-like social media (sort of like how you could view @Channel threads in Chaos;Child, you can see Twitter posts here, can't really remember what it was called) and you get to see some posts by Kurisu there. Daru gets mentioned a lot and Nae (Mr. Braun's daughter) is a really important character (and all grown up now). I don't really remember the whole story, but it gets really, really deep into the whole Committee of 300 conspiracy. There's even a real mad scientist character here, who's something like the main antagonist. I feel like it's supposed to set up a lot for future VNs in this series, since I sort of remember it leaving a lot of unanswered questions about the organization. Also, there's apparently a regular Robotics;Notes and Robotics;Notes ELITE. The ELITE version is what I played because everyone says that's the one you should play. It looks a little different from a standard VN because all the character sprites are 3D (pic related). It was a little weird at first but I remember warming up to it pretty quickly. Also there's a lot of movies with animation that looks like it came straight out of an anime, so that's pretty unique too. About the other VNs that've come out, I haven't played Robotics;Notes DASH yet, but I hear that a new Steins;Gate VN is supposed to be releasing soon. The name and synopsis is unknown currently, it's only known as Steins:Gate ???. So that's pretty exciting. Also apparently, a completely new VN came out too, called Anonymous;Code. I have zero idea what it's about, but I know that it's in this same universe and not a part of the Steins;Gate, Chaos;Head or Robotics;Notes series.

arimura...

>>307 here, i probably should've also asked which versions of the games should i play as well lol it also screws with me when VNs have multiple different versions, i'm always afraid some version will have content missing or something... i'm writing a thing about 16bit sensation, and that anime reminded me that i still need to play steins;gate at some point...

>>657 Suhweeeeet dawg

>>656 already exists https://www.tomenet.eu/

>>656 How'd it work with the turns?

>>674 tomenet uses real time turns, which in my opinion ruins the roguelike experience. if I had to implement it, I would divide the world between public "mmo" areas (towns and such) with real time turns, and private/party dungeons with regular roguelike turns. pvp could have regular turns with a timer like chess

I don't know if this is embarrassing to say but the hardest game I beat without any difficulty options was probably GTA 3. I played the PS2 version and it controls like Max Payne with OoT controls and no bullet time. Tons of missions past the first quarter of the game 100% weren't playtested by anyone, and usually rely too much on trial and error, have horrible time limits, or both at the same time. Walkthroughs just barely make the game easier. I've heard people say that San Andreas is harder purely because of the train mission, but I'm blaming that on the PC port being half-assed since I've never failed that on PS2.

>>285 after months, i finally beat No More Heroes 2 on the hardest difficulty! ...paradoxically, even on bitter, this game wasn't super hard to me, it was literally just one phase of the final boss that i was stuck on for months. the frustration of that one boss was almost not worth beating the game, but also the fun i had with everything else outweighs that.

>>285 Recently I've 100% Elden Ring I'd say it was the hardest Souls game I've played so far (and I've finished all the Dark Souls), mainly due to its different approach and mechanics, which I was not used to, but the easiest to get all the achievements in Now I'm playing Tears of the Kingdom in my Steam Deck

>>623 Agreed. I'm playing it for the first time with a friend and we're slowly going through 100% completion. Even some of the missions are a headache to get through, not considering the tedium of 100%.

One's have had to retry bosses the most are ds3 and the trails of cold steel series. Trails could be hard but always had room to try different strategies, was very satisfying to figure one out that finally worked. DS3 when you lost it would happen quickly but in a jrpg where boss battles can go 30 minutes - an hour losing towards the end hurts much more, esp when you realize you were just stupid/confident.

>>397 A lot of people played Quake, Half-Life, and even Counter-Strike 1.6 wtf are you talking about?

>>398 *With only keyboard Sorry I'm sick rn and forgot to add that oh so important part

>>398 But playing those with keyboard only is kinda clunky In doom you can play it with keyboard almost as well as you do with mouse

>>400 True, although aiming becomes the REAL Hell lolz (also sorry for the late response I completely forgot about this thread )

Not too long ago I played through Overboard, a short map pack from the guy who made Going Down. Short and sweet maps with some awesome level design, and a NG+ mode with harder enemy placements after you beat it for the first time. Link to the Doomworld page: https://doomwiki.org/wiki/Overboard
