/v/ - Video Games

Oh and before the ">muh shill" come:

http://igg-games.com/seven-days-long-gone-free-download.html

I'm away from home so I can't pirate it right now, but I'd like to support the devs if this is a good game.

>>13908869

Only a shill would care about the prevalence of consumer awareness of shills.

>>13908873

Well… that's a new one. 8/10

>>13908880

It's pretty straight forward. That being said, post actual screenshots next time.

>>13908865

>$30 indieshit

>can't even maintain 60fps in their own trailer

Pass.

>>13908891

In the time it took you to find those screens and write that, you could have started watching a 'let's play' and gotten an idea of what the gameplay was actually like.

>>13908902

>watching a video that has some faggot's face plastered over 60% of the screen

>watching a retard struggling with the tutorial

>idea of what gameplay is like

I can't respect anyone that starts a video with "Hey guys, what's up!"

>>13908909

And I can't respect phoneposters who treat /v/ like google instead of spending a minute or two to figure shit out for themselves. You can't always get what you want.

>>13908923

>phoneposter

You got a single fact to back that up?

Not being willing to copypaste shitty images from google doesn't mean I'm using a phone.

If you wanna throw insults, I'm gonna call you reddit because you actually sugested "Let's Plays" as a legit way of appraising a game.

I'd have less chance of contracting cancer by sticking an Uranium dildo up my ass than watching an LP and it would be only half as gay.

>>13908909

You don't need to respect them to get an idea of how the game plays. Just use Hooktube to not give them money you retard.

>>13908978

Already got an extension that converts all youtube links to hooktube, but good to see hooktube got out of /g/ hell.

The last time I saw a let's play to gauge a game, it was Rimworld. The guy survived 4 days, didn't explore anything (didn't even know how the freezer works) and made a piss poor case for the game.

Unless you're about to sugest someone who's decent at videogames, all examples I've seen are people being dumb INTENTIONALY because that's how they get viewers.

People that actually play competently get double digit viewers. It's the retards that rake in the 6 digits.

>>13908939

And what a glorious day that will be.

So what is it? Top down asscreed? Or diablo clone?

>>13909122

It's isometric Thief, with piranha-bytes progression and world building + exploration, excepting XP.

>>13908891

It does have dishonored abilities, yeah. They're on a lower cooldown and regenerate without energy items, as well. Only tradeoff is they share resource supplies with ranged weaponry, since both abilities and ranged weaponry use energy. The game is fun enough, relies on you being smart and choosing your battles carefully over backstabbing things, because even with a pair of pretty good daggers you can't oneshot a technomagi with a backstab, but you'll get pretty close. And that was interesting, I thought, since your progression is entirely tied to your brain, your gear that you have also acquired with your brain, and your use of terrain, knowledge of handling and your own skill. Baiting technomancers to a cliff and then ramming them off the edge of a wall will net you top tier armor early on, and can also disguise you in restricted zones.

I really enjoyed the freedom of movement available, also. There's a lot of ways to be unseen in the traditional sense, and being able to break into any window you see is an absolute plus and no other game lets you do it so you can feel sneaky breeki like.

>>13909248

>buying

there's a magnet link in the thread, retard.

Also, irrelevant to discussion about the gameplay, which is actually good.

Shall I give it a swirl, because you are all too lazy and also broke to take a look at that shit?

>>13909274

No shill-kun, I asked for a reason. You're using piracy to lure people in trying a game they would absolutely ignore, normally: because like this they become invested in it.

It's not really that different from selling lootboxes: hook them up until they need it against their own interest. But a cheaply made, derivative game shouldn't be sold at the same price of a japanese AAA.

>>13909351

>piracy is lootboxes

>>13909371

>>13909374

Be prepared for the journos to use these as actual talking points on why piracy is bad in the near future.

>>13909371

>>13909374

>I'm gonna try this game I would otherwise ignore because it's free

That's how double digits IQs get played.

>>13909401

When you pirate that game has to compete with every other game you can pirate for your time so your analogy is shit.

>>13909424

And that's why shills now suggest you to try their game by any means, even pirating: to get the spotlight. Then chance is someone will ever talk about this little game they tried

>>13909580

>anyone ever talking about a game I don't know of is a shill

I saved you 10 more posts of goalposting moving, you're welcome.

>>13909626

Exactly this. I'll give it a try just to piss off that guy.

>>13909580

Isn't that the whole positive aspect of piracy?

You get 30 games out in a month.

You're not gonna buy them all, obvisouly.

You buy that one game you've been waiting for months, then look at the rest.

What's shit? What's good? Gee I dunno, maybe try a demo?

Well, since demo's are dead, you pirate.

Shit one of them is actually good and one the cheap side. Are the devs cool? You might drop a couple tenners in it. Devs are shit/game is an hot mess? Don't.

What kind of moron pirates shit and then feels invested in it to the point of buying it?

The anti-shill brigade is downright insulting: listening to you, you'd think /v/ is loaded with retards and moyuthbreathers that drop money the same your mother dropped you when you were a kid.

Protip: just because you bought a shit game in the past and now deeply regret spending those 10bux doesn't mean everyone else is a fucking retard.

>>13909875

>you'd think /v/ is loaded with retards and moyuthbreathers

It is. Goons have been flooding the board for a while now.

>>13909919

Then let them buy shit and wallow in a pit of shitty games.

When the fuck does anyone here care about goon's taste.

>>13909919

Why do you give so much of a shit about how much money them 40 year old NEETs are pissing away?

https://archive.is/sO7Y9

A look into their Games subforum is more than enough to confirm that goons have poor impulse control.

>>13911936

Disguising keeps you from being instantly detected and aggro'd by everything nearby when spotted, and gives you enough time to duck out of sight and into cover.

>>13911936

>ring menu

eeeh… does it at least work with middle mouse button? That would atleast make it bearable.

And yeah, like >>13912122 said, the disguises aren't "wear this and no-one notices you, ever". Kinda like the older Hitman games, I supose.

That inventory is shit though. Do you need to use it frequently (high maintenance) or is it something you use every once in a while?

>>13911873

This resolution is painful, omae. I'm going to have to play this myself to judge it. Thanks for the effort though.

>>13915067

Yeah it uses MMB.

No, you don't really have to use the inventory all that much unless you're constantly swapping out clothes and consumables, which you don't really need to considering how liberal they are with ability usage and other things, and it's actually easier to do once you figure out the nuances and equip everything from the Equipment Menu and not the Inventory menu, since inventory is a lot more difficult to use with how it's set up.

what the? this isnt the tribes thread

>>13908869

>linking to the bitcoin mining site

smh tbh fam

>disregard the hack&slash combat

>>13911936

I agree, the UI is shit.

the game would be very fun, but I am kinda bored of 'open world' games that has random loot into containers everywhere you know will only contain junk. it is ok though, I lost interest of the main story. characters are bland.

the good parts is the lack of RNG effects in lockpicking and pickpocketing
