/v/ - Video Games

Terraria comes to mind in terms of crafting stuff. If I spawn near a snow biome I like to build a small base in an icy cave with a campfire. I might get flak for this but Skyrim also has nice autumn-like atmosphere for brewing potions, etc. I would say Two Worlds 2 As well but most of the game kinda takes place in a desert land or an oriental village so autumn doesn’t really show but it has a good crafting system where you can pretty much combine anything. I mostly played it to make my own spells since that was the funnest part of the game for me

Perverted lolicon. I actually just got done playing it with a friend that recently got it. Holy shit there are still a few people online.

>>15015358

Most Atelier games. Comfy crafting times is the entire point of those.

Dragon Quest Builders, put a wall of stone around town asap and you can get to work on your pirate ship or giant brick slime town layout without having to go downstairs every few minutes because hammerfaggots are wrecking everyone's shit.

Put up windows in your cafe so you can see the giant boobs you built in the distant hills while you cook.

Or study how npc AIs path and fuck with them, max comfy

Dark Messiah. When you're not in combat you're wandering through some of the most beautiful levels ever made.

Arx Fatalis, as well, by the same devs, and with more stuff to do like baking apple pies. Too much backtracking later on though.

The Mana Khemia games are basically Atelier without the time limits. To be exact, you do have a time limit, but time only advances when you progress the game's main story. Anything you do that isn't progressing the story doesn't count toward the passage of time, letting you explore the world at your leisure and get autistic with your gear in a way the main Atelier games just don't allow.

>>15019796

>they ALL have some sort of deadline system though

Sophie doesn't. Firis has a weird pseudo timelimit that goes away after a certain point afaik.

Why bothers with games when you can rewatch kampfy kamp with your fuhrer daiki?

>>15015358

Digimon World New World Order has a camping option you can eventually unlock to cook food while you're traveling with your Mons.

It's pretty cool actually, since you're supposed to spend a lot of time traveling around with them.

>>15015358

Oh right! Get Rune Factory!

The whole game (all 4) is about growing your skills at your own rate, craft tools and weapons, explore the forests and ruins with your waifus and tend a farm on the side.

You go to the dictionary and "comfy" is defined with a screenshot of Rune Factory.

If you want to emulate, especially on Android, go for Rune Factory 3 for the DS, but if you have a 3DS or can emulate that, go for Rune Factory 4 as it's objectively better (except on the girls)

>>15019796

>tfw I can emulate the PS3 one but it runs at 10 FPS if I'm not aiming the camera down

It's a weird mix of comfy and stressful when I have to constantly avoid looking at the distance or else the game the game shits itself.

>>15020067

Seconding this. If you're not into farming stuff the Tides of Destiny is the one.

>>15015358

Elona can be pretty fucking comfy considering you can just goof around doing whatever with your party of waifus

Danganronpa 2 is surprisignly comfy when shit's not going down, but it's more of a summer beach feel. It's also really recommended to play the first one first or watch the first anime if you're retarded.

>>15020168

Elona is probably the best bet for comfy downtimes until somebody makes a better version.

Too bad it takes so long to git gud at anything.

>>15020168

I would recommend danganronpa if you're retarded too.

Skyrim easily, best game for this kind of thing

>>15035060

There has to be something better

>crafting

>fun

Pick one and only one.

>>15045703

Real life

Any game can be comfy if you know how to get comfy.

>>15015358

From the thumbnail I thought her knees were an ass, like other girl entering to her tent in all fours.

>>15045745

There's only one part of the story that has a time limit and it's extremely generous. It's possible you've already completed the requirement beforehand even. The real issue with it is the true ending is missable although not hard to get as long as you do your best.

>>15019906

Firis has a time limit until you reach the exam but it's also possible to fail the game before time is up if you don't make sufficient progress.

>>15016159

> I might get flak for this but Skyrim also has nice autumn-like atmosphere for brewing potions, etc

The one and only one thing Skyrim was ever good for was turning it into a camping simulator with weather/hypothermia/food mods. There is nothing quite as comfy as setting up your tent in some wind-protected cliff overhang, lighting a fire, and cooking your dinner.

I'd generally like to see an RPG in which the resting function is or may be used for various relaxing stuff like chatting with your party members or something like that. Not any of the fast-paced minigames though, mind you - the entire idea would be to make it as comfy for you as it would be for the characters.

You could even use those moments to do some character building for said characters - show a little cutscene of the otherwise haughty and arrogant mage quietly smiling to himself as he watches over his sleeping companions. Or the party loli (which naturally is 300 years old) being all cuddled up to the party MILF.

>>15047331

> like chatting with your party members or something like that.

I liked the dinner conversations in Grandia 3

>>15045723

>implying it's not pay to win garbage

>>15049662

Why do you think we're looking for an alternative then you faggot

>>15047331

>You could even use those moments to do some character building for said characters - show a little cutscene of the otherwise haughty and arrogant mage quietly smiling to himself as he watches over his sleeping companions.

Not so much "downtime", but that is kind how skits in Tales handle, giving optional scenes and additional world building/characterization/humor, the triggers for viewing varying (be it plot progression, working on a particular sidequest, performing X Y number of times, etc). Not sure if it's quite what you have in mind, but still.

>>15048237

Every Grandia game had those

>>15020067

Definitely this, RF is as comfy as it gets

>>15015358

Honestly if you wanna have a comfy time doing camping, cooking and crafting like in that pic just go outside. It's infinitely more rewarding.

Any good comfy mods for Morrowind?

>>15050966

Would you go outside for some comfy camping with me, anon?

also checked.

>>15051064

I'm down dude. My hammock is always packed and ready in my car.

>>15051020

bump for morrowind mods

Jesus it's like all the weebs here don't know what the fuck downtime is. Play Wurm Unlimited and enjoy the nights by a campfire cooking some food; it's not like you can see anything at night anyway lol.

I miss the old MMOs and sitting down with the group while talking shit. Old school SWG and DAoC were like that… but people are too impatient and gay, so now we just queue up and slam through shit. Also fuck off Todd, playing your games is like jerking so hard it hurts for a week straight and never finishing, leaving you with the nastiest blue balls of all time.

>>15052739

>spoiler

Ever played Swordcraft Story 1?

>>15052739

Moga has one of the few themes I find more comfy during the day.

>>15052806

not him, but there was too much gray and metal and empty explorable areas up the tower imo, though I never finished the game and I find it difficult to get back into it maybe those areas won't be so empty later in the story

>>15052834

Dungeon crawling is pretty weak in a jrpg.

Then you know what to do, fag. Time to man up and take Sugar as your bride

>>15052645

I assume that nonsensical posts like this come from retarded children or literal schizophrenics and this board makes a lot more sense.

>>15052645

Were you made when the DBZ Budokai games added minigames in the loading screen? did it offend you that the attempt was made to make the downtime more fun?

>>15050942

Preach it, Anon. DD is such a waste of good potential.

>>15056363

I hated that they patented that bullshit so they could jew anyone else who tried to include loading minigames in their own software.

>>15019896

Thank you so much for this. I was looking to see if there was any other Atelier games that didn't have time limits like Sophie and granted Firis was a little better about no time limit, I couldn't get as into it as I did Sophie.

>>15052645

>has never known the joy of telling stories by the fire in between pulls

underage plz go

>>15057101

To be fair nobody does that anymore.

RIP cubeworld

>>15035060

Its bland and a mediocre at best. Only Mods are the best thing about skyrim, the FREE ones.

comfy is ded

pls no 404

>>15062752

>cubeworld

lel i remember playing that. apparantly the autist dev has been working on an update for it for the last five years at the pace of yandev so ill play it again if it actually ever releases

>>15087823

>>15087922

The great tragedies of comfy rpg.

>>15051020

I believe Complete Morrowind Improved and Morrowind Crafting are the go-to mods for crafting and cooking and whatnot. Necessities of Morrowind adds hunger, thirst and sleep. I can't remember how compatible they are with each other, it's been a long time since I used them.

>>15087823

>>15090585

Iirc there's a private server if people don't want to deal with the official one

>>15092039

My geography means the ping no different, plus I love fighter too much.

Haven't played in years anyhow.

Can roguelikes be comfy?

>>15099611

I think they're pretty much made to not be comfy. And if it was, then it would be too easy of a roguelike.

>>15099631

But can they?

I mean some have a descendant system and stashes to hide loot for future runs.

bump

>>15015358

ar tonelico and atelier iris. they both have fun conversations tied to crafting and talkative shopkeepers. ar tonelico has a thing where you explore dreams

>>15099611

pokemon mystery dungeon and one way heroics, the visuals and music are super comfy

>>15112400

ded thred

ded gaem

>>15112304

The world is still being eaten up as you go though. Nothing really comfy with that.

>>15114171

yeah most japanese roguelikes have something that discourages you from lingering. i remember in chocobos dungeon 2 the fucking reaper would appear to try to one shot you. he also ran in-dungeon shops. i wonder where he got those items.

>>15019796

The deadline is basically the same thing as the deadline in P3-P5. It's there to give structure to the game and you still have plenty of time to do whatever you want.

>>15114397

This is a problem, I think it's because of their rigid approach to game design that compels them to map out your entire experience and make the game around it.

>>15114538

It's still a deadline looming over your head for the sake of forcing your hand.

>>15115471

Funny how elona just lets you loose to do whatever you want though, maybe that's why it's so popular.

>>15015358

Yakuza?

>>15142303

I never thought about it.

Sounds almost perfect, like shenmue.

>>15052739

>>15052834

Tri is the first and only good nintendo monster hunter game. Superior taste here.

I thought red dead redemption was pretty comfy. Just ride around exploring nature (and hope you don't get mauled by a jaguar), sit around the fire pit and listen to strangers' stories, and cheat in poker.

>>15087823

I would love to play something like Mabinogi again. Too bad I'm too much of a brainlet with the controls and it's mechanics. Otherwise, I'd continue to playing it and just adventure by myself.

Atelier Online when?

It's already been suggested, but for sure try Rune Factory. You can emulate all the games (even 4, as Citra is now pretty decent) so there's really no excuse. 4 alone will give you 300+ hours of comfy experiences.

>>15158190

You can always just play it.

>>15052390

Wurm is cozy as shit (when you're not lost in the woods at night with wolves howling and shit). I have no idea why /v/ wants to turn it into a PvP thing.

>>15163626

cause pvp is fun when you aren't being ganked.

>>15172200

Time to mine those server files
