/v/ - Video Games

It's gonna be a pozzed pile of shit and hopefully ends up being the game that kills Lab Zero for good.

Skullgirls sucks too.

It'll probably be mediocre. Crowdfunded games rarely live up to the hype, especially if they're delayed.

>>16617994

I liked Skullgirls' art and music.

>>16617921

>A mate of mine recently brought back the existence of this game last night and it really hit me that despite all the shilling and marketing by sjw journos and devs this game has been extremely under the radar.

That's because all they really needed was the money for their kikestarter. I should know, backed Squigly's assets and they kept pestering me with that shitty title. I've never been more ashamed of having supported an artist I liked, but so is LabZero apparently, now that they neutered the only good parts of Skullgirlsguys, as >>16617994

>>16618043

>>16618057

aptly put it.

No one who backed the game had any intention of playing it, they're mostly doing it for the "multicultured" cred, but now that tumblr is a shadow of its former self and all those tumblrettes fled to cuckchan /co/, twatter and reddit, they're spread so thin that I believe only diehard KikeZ fans still care about the title. Game itself was nothing special, voices are grating as fuck, showing that LabZero is unwilling to learn from their mistake with Skullgirls (meme spouting whores, all of the VAs, even those I like) and just made some very insipid, clunky jrpg that will entertain people for about the first thirty minutes.

Also, the reactions at >>16617921 and the other redesigns on NeoFag were stupendous, I hope somebody saved them. Funny how they recoil in fear at seeing a bleached character and erupt in joyous cheers at seeing a BLACKED.COM conquistador.

Why did they stop working on Skullgirls anyway? I heard some shit went down.

>>16618300

Why go for an SJW knockoff instead of the original?

>>16618301

Basically they removed so fram animation and replaced them with more conservatively designed ones.The reason they stated as to why is because they're more "mature".

>>16618387

To this day I'm still angry that Aeon and Venus never made the cut in the game let alone the three characters that would've progressed the game's plot. On the bright side at least zaimont's getting exactly what he deserves for cucking to progressives. I doubt that he'll ever learn.

Character votes should never be allowed in a crowdfunded game. Backers don't know shit about what they want and sometimes the devs actually have an idea they want to execute, but convince themselves they will get more sheckles if they allow the backers to "feel like a part of production" and choose instead. I remember when Torment had a vote between pure turn based and RTwP and the shitshow that caused. Which still paled in comparison to the MNo. Shit Roll disaster.

Should have picked the characters that would have brought a sense of completion to the game instead of letting the waifuwars allow in an irrelevant villain and a nobody wrestler that people stopped playing. Even putting Big Band in was a bad idea if they had a slot for their own pick.

Not that it matters, Lab 0 proved that they will take an interesting concept and underdeliver on the execution. The only IGG characters I would up liking in design was Robo-fortune, Fukua, and Squigly.

>>16618387

Here's a better version of that cap.

>>16618366

He's a character from Super Time Force, which was a pixelshit XBone platformer before (I believe) being ported to other platforms. It had a decent gimmick, in that each of your lives was a different character, and each one had some time control gimmick, but that was it.

>>16618300

>implying /v/ is one person

From what I recall of Brown Girl Adventure's funding campaign, most of the "omg sooo guuuudddd char design!!!!!" people were creating headcanons for the characters from minute one. Each character would get a reveal on Twitter and other social media platforms, receive a surge of hastily scribbled Tumblr fanart, one or two pieces of porn, then promptly be forgotten as the next nigger/hapa was unveiled. All the devs actually stated about their characters were broad statements that barely diverged from the anime stereotypes they were painfully obviously based on.

>she's a warrior woman who don't take no sass!

>he's a cocksure young hero who can't quite control his strength!

And so on.

My favourite detail, though, is them failing to meet their funding goals twice over and pulling every crony string they could get their hands on to extend the funding period twice over. People were rightfully skeptical of their claims about the studio's future, namely that Lab Zero would DIE YOU GUISE FOR REAL IT'S SRS if they didn't meet their funding goals. It's true that Lab Zero would die, but everyone who works there (or most of them, at least) were industry professionals who could easily find work in other fields. After realizing that, people started asking them why they didn't telecommute, or all pitch in to relocate to Oakland instead of living in one of the most expensive urban environments on the face of the earth.

Naturally these people were vicious gamergoobler alt-right trolls, and were summarily dismissed. Their blackwashing and broken promises are icing on the cake at this point, along with the Skullgirls character who never even made it into Skullgirls.

>To this day I'm still angry that Aeon and Venus never made the cut in the game let alone the three characters that would've progressed the game's plot

Fucking this. If they were going to have limited room to add new characters, they should have added the ones that completed the story before anything else – especially when the ones who managed to get in only left MORE cliffhangers and loose ends than they fixed. >>16618485 's point about not letting people vote is also. Apparently, when one of the popular nominees, Annie, ended up getting beaten, one of the devs unsubtly pointed them to Beowulf so the waifu that beat their favorite (Minette I think) wouldn't win. It's bullshit.

>>16618544

The waifu wars were cancer unto themselves. Despite fans of the game including myself knowing that this was most likely the last hurrah for Skullgirls since Lab Zero has had nothing but bad luck with it's development. The minute they dangle a bunch of characters in the backer's faces all hell breaks loose and people start picking a fish because she's cute and not because they even care about her mechanics how Eliza won the vote is a testament to how annoying the Annie and Minette crowd became. Even Beowulf as you point out only got in because it would spite the most annoying voters.

The game has already taken a big hit long before even being released.

Also fuck Skullgirls

>>16619136

Looks pretty uninspired and moreover a visual mess, not gonna bullshit you anon. It looks like an overdesigned 90s Transformer with a girl's face. Less is more. Don't have so many competing colours and visual elements clashing against each other. Small details should blend into the greater image, not fight against it.

>>16618924

>>16619261

>>16619261

Explaining everything to you in a single post would be impossible so I'll just show you an example of what would be a better design of your same concept.

> no random lines cutting through everything

> no tiny extraneous details drawing your eyes in seven different directions and making you squint

> simple curves that lead into each other and form a clear silhouette

> areas such as the breast, abdomen, shoulders, groin, are not unnecessarily divided into more than two colour groups

Indivisible's lead level designer and lead writer are games journalists who wormed their way into the industry.

It pains me that I got fooled into backing this project.

>>16618300

You quite literally said it, Tomoko and Hex Maniac are the two OG mojo/fujoshits but happy

This is just a dull imitation

>>16618301

>Why did they stop working on Skullgirls anyway? I heard some shit went down.

They blamed their publisher having gone belly up because of Konami, but given that the retards can't into money I'm assuming they just mismanaged their project and got the axe. When they got back their IP via that fundraiser, they did fuck all with it and just threw a ton of concept art but just picked what they liked, not the fans - despite what the "polls" may say.

>>16618417

>On the bright side at least zaimont's getting exactly what he deserves for cucking to progressives. I doubt that he'll ever learn.

What do you mean?

>To this day I'm still angry that Aeon and Venus never made the cut in the game let alone the three characters that would've progressed the game's plot.

The entire roster had cool lore and abilities but fuck that, if KikeZ wants his Captain America ripoff he's bloody well going to get it. Beowulf had the most fake hype I've ever seen behind a character reveal.

>>16618466

Apparently, Islamic countries have bathouses named Hammam where women are allowed to be naked in the company of each other - and arabs themselves invented the concepts of Harems anyhow - so really, socjus are even worse than islamists/suffragettes/puritans combined.

>>16618570

As long as he lets us play for free, I'm okay with this.

>>16618909

I mean, what the fuck where you expecting? A game based on sexy grills having a poll where sexy grills are the majority and get the most votes, how shocking.

>>16618924

Yeah, the art in Indivisible is not bad at all, but the aesthetic are all over the place. Backgrounds look really good and the characters really bad.

>>16619136

>>16619261

Well, I'm no art-fag by any stretch, but lemme give me a shot at it:

>The character is visually uninteresting. Her design is really derivative and it strikes me more as if you needed some filler "cop" character than from a true desire of having a new one.

>Her color scheme is really dull. In general color theory, gray-black-darker colors-brown-beige are used for uninteresting parts of a design (unless your objective is to make the character blend in, think Solid Snake, or it's a stylistic choice), while bright colors like magenta-cyan-red etc. are used to draw the eye towards that given feature, so the higher the saturation the more important that part of the character. IMO you should always impose limitations to your design, i.e. just using 3 colors, one being the main drive for the character and the other two supplementing its details

>Her silhouette is really boring too. As this is going to be a fighting game, most of the time you'll want to look at her upper body to read her "tells" for whatever move you're going to program for her. Her feet are the least important thing, even if you've decided you wanted her to have dash movements you should concentrate on making her upper body more recognizable from those of other fighters. To give you some ground of comparison, look at what the team behind original Team Fortress 2 did to make sure that their characters are distinctive enough that you can tell them apart (and what they're gonna do to you) from a distance

>You should always design a character based on their PURPOSE, not just what makes something visually interesting. For instance, let's say that you want to make this character a speed-based grappler. The tire-shaped legs are a nice touch, but maybe you could make it even more obvious that she won't use her feet for mobility by making her one with her mobility scooter, then adding details like those tacky exhaust pipes to her back to show that she's fast paced with bursts of movement rather than moving back and forth on an unycicle, maybe toning down details of her crotch/legs area and making her upper body (especially the arms) beefier. Her face is also really boring, I realize that muh animu doesn't allow for much variation, but you could, for example, make sure her hair is sort of like in a pompadour fashion, extremely dynamic in look, and her hat is all mangled up from moving at high speeds. Practically speaking, you need to make sure that whomever looks at your characters/designs already understands everything this character/design is about, their story, motivation and style at a glance - unless it's something that is MEANT to be background decoration, in which case you can draw it stereotypical and bland as it functions as a nice tell.

>>16619355

>I got fooled into backing this project

wat.

Are you a complete newfag or something? We had threads about the devs back when the kickstarter was running.

>>16619359

I only did that with the heart because it seemed like an important detail. But like I said, if a detail is too small it shouldn't be there anyways. Details should be inferred by the basic design or blend into it. Pics very related

>>16619375

Thanks. I'll keep a note of all of what you're saying. But let me just respond to some things.

>As this is going to be a fighting game, most of the time you'll want to look at her upper body to read her "tells" for whatever move you're going to program for her. Her feet are the least important thing, even if you've decided you wanted her to have dash movements you should concentrate on making her upper body more recognizable from those of other fighters.

>Uses TF2 as an example

I'm not sure TF2 is the best example you can give. Yes, their characters have wildly diverse silhouettes, but the reason they chose that design mentality for their characters was because in TF2 those characters typically attack in groups. My game is a 1v1 fighter so that aspect is downplayed.

Hell even taking Skullgirls as an example most of those characters have very similar bodytypes that only really stand out because of their clothes or headwear. I think the girls in my game are varied enough that you could still tell them apart if they were all bald and nude.

>You should always design a character based on their PURPOSE, not just what makes something visually interesting.

I did design her with purpose. She both uses her feet and her wheels for movement and attacks and her kicks deal the lion's share of the damage she deals out. Essentially I wanted to make her a waifuized version of Sentinel.

>>16619387

So you saw a giant warning sign and still put money down?

>>16619387

In real life when you have a small cancerous tumor, you don't just go "Oh well it's just a small tumour why is everyone getting so upset?". It wasn't about the panty-shots, it was about what they represented. You really should have known better.

>>16619392

>My game is a 1v1 fighter so that aspect is downplayed.

I'd argue that it's even more important in your game, given that you need to be able to tell what kind of attack each and every single character is about to perform from audio-visual cues that may as well last very few frames.

One thing I liked about your art though is the design for what I assume is your main character, the feral catgirl. It's simple, but straight to the point. It's a fierce, but easygoing warrior. Her attacks are gonna be somewhat sloppy but ferocious.

>Hell even taking Skullgirls as an example most of those characters have very similar bodytypes that only really stand out because of their clothes or headwear.

But that's not true. Look at Cerebella for instance, you must never take your eyes off her hat-piece. Peacock has a completely different style, stances also help a lot i.e. Valentine is hunched over due to her, er, weight, but it's completely unique in looks compared to the other characters. There's a lot to shit on Skullgirls, but the art-design is probably the least of your concerns. Heck even the SHAPES of their heads are different.

>>16619435

>I'd argue that it's even more important in your game, given that you need to be able to tell what kind of attack each and every single character is about to perform from audio-visual cues that may as well last very few frames.

Yes, but I'm talking about how the TF2 characters need to stand out because they attack in groups. What you're describing here is more of an issue on how they will animate which I think shouldn't be a problem. They all have unique animations based on their personalities and bodytypes.

>One thing I liked about your art though is the design for what I assume is your main character, the feral catgirl. It's simple, but straight to the point. It's a fierce, but easygoing warrior. Her attacks are gonna be somewhat sloppy but ferocious.

You're talking about this girl?

She's not the main character, athough she is my favorite. Her attacks tend to be more based on playfulness, not knowing her own immense strength and simply tossing the opponents around like playthings.

>But that's not true. Look at Cerebella for instance, you must never take your eyes off her hat-piece. Peacock has a completely different style, stances also help a lot i.e. Valentine is hunched over due to her, er, weight, but it's completely unique in looks compared to the other characters

These are things I mentioned. It's mostly headwear or posing that makes them look unique from each other. Body-wise they are similar to each other and boil down to either sexualized hourglass or non-sexualized hourglass. I have girls who are muscular, petite, fat, thin, tall, short, with tails, without tails, you name it. I don't think silhouette diversity is a problem but I'll post a gallery later so you can judge for yourself.

>>16619415

>When is something actually playable coming out?

Don't know.

>What stage of game development are you in right now?

Pre-alpha.

>How many models of the characters have you made?

Numerous, but some had to be remade from scratch. There's five characters modeled so far.

>How many animations for each of the models have you made?

Again, a lot, but a skeleton issue occurred in June of 2017 that caused us to restart.

>How many stages, textures, clothes rigs, general assets, etc. have you made?

We have assets for stages done but just need to put them together.

>How long is your estimate to "hire more developers"?

Already have. There are many moving pieces and we're working with professionals but I only have so much money to throw at it at a time so that's why it's coming along so slow.

I know people are watching me expecting me to become the next YandereDev. But unless I die or run out of money or something this game IS going to happen. I've been working on it for years and I'm not about to give up now. I haven't taken people's money for the game yet so just give me more time.

>>16618924

Admittedly I could dig Thorani's design because it's alike of 2D brown in jap works, but she would have been much better if the rest of the characters werent all over the place and trying too hard to be "diverse" (literally no whites allowed)

>>16619506

Alright maybe you might like them. Fuck it I'll just post them.

Things to note:

Planning to make Dai a long-range grappler that uses a lot of Earth-based attacks.

Sailor America is just a joke character and not going to be playable but she is a character in the lore.

Naoko uses a really big hammer that shoots missiles.

>>16619565

God loves you the way you are, anon

>>16619574

I think their gut is a bit off putting, but I can see where you're trying to reach with all of them.

I think that the first needs a slight redesign of how fat she looks.

>Dai

Generally speaking, people with a strong upper half don't tend to be sloths, their body is much more toned because despite being fat, it's still "functional" fat if I am making myself clear. Look up pictures of professional female weight-lifters for what I mean. I understand why you made her hips/handles that wide though, it would look odd if it didn't connect with her snake body, but her gut's gotta be more toned, pushed inward so to speak.

>sailoramerica

I really like how you parodied the usual "ameriga fug yeah" character that is ever present in all fighting games, though I think that to really sell it her face needs to be much plumper (fat makes various features droopier) and her legs thicker. I like her aesthetic the most out of these three

>Naoko

Would probably be a more accurate prediction with her complete look, but overall it's alright

Again, not a drawfag by any stretch, out of your characters the one I liked the most right now is the army girl with aircraft carriers on her arms, that one is fucking sick, I bet it's going to be the funniest to play with

She's actually a parody of multiple things, I may or may not have thought of giving her a Filia color scheme as an alternate skin.

She is an incompetent villain, or at least a rival character to the main heroine. There are three other girls collectively called the PatriotChixXXx who summon her Captain Planet style to do things for them.

Also a friend drew her in calarts style.

>>16619611

>Also a friend drew her in calarts style.

>>16619615

>and produce a healthy baby

That's not really true, landwhales put their children at risk, plus once born the children are much more likely to develop even worse eating habits than their mothers.

>this may be why some people like big buttsI, before today couldn't think of a reason why

People like big butts because reproduction for a lot of species is doggy-style penetration, humans learnt to walk on two feet so women developed fat tats to convince men that they're healthy and can produce good offspring. Dogs or foxes didn't evolve like that and that's why their nipples are so tiny.

>all fat people have big butts

again, not true, that part is determined by genetics - being a landwhale and being predisposed to be fat are two completely different concepts that modern feminists and #bodypositive faggots try to cobble up together, but it's blatant lies. Women tend to have wider hips, butts and tits because that's how fat can mainly distribute on their body, similarly men tend to go for beer-guts and rarely get fat in other places, but then again it all depends on their genes. But being fat is usually a (bad) life style, even though there are people who get fatter due to congenital illnesses, you can tell them apart from Amerifat landwhales by the way that their fat doesn't distribute properly on their bodies, making them look deformed.

>>16619619

>Now, white people that did evolve in cold, extreme climates tend to view healthy, fit women as the female ideal, while niggers "like sum meat on dat".

Actually, that's not true either. See all statues of plumper women still being around to this day. Key difference here is that being chubbier doesn't mean being a 300 pounds potato sack woman, which is what Amerifats consider chubby nowadays.

Generalizing sexual tastes in body types is really kind of retarded.

>>16619732

I see. You really shouldn't block people who wanna give you input, aurtistic or otherwise.

Seriously though, learn to code first, no matter how good the art looks if the game doesn't exist it may as well just be a pipe dream.

>>16619465

> Body-wise they are similar to each other and boil down to either sexualized hourglass or non-sexualized hourglass.

That's pretty disingenuous when your game could be boiled down to Bara women with big and non-bara women covered in lots of stuff to bulk them out.

Say what you will about Skullgirls, and there is a lot that can be said, but there isn't any two hourglasses that look the same and the petite characters also have differing body types. Strip all the SG girls down to their skivies and you can tell them apart. And things like pose, held items, and headwear are still a part of differentiating figures. Otherwise what's the real difference between the Spy and Sniper in TF2? They would both be tall, lanky legged, square shouldered characters.

>>16619562

When is this shit ever going to come out?

>>16619375

>I mean, what the fuck where you expecting?

Honestly, for as loud as the community had been over the prospects of the future of the game. Especially the people who were there longer than I was. For everyone to drop all pretense and devolve into picking characters based purely on aesthetics and not mechanics or necessity to the story just pissed me off.

And as always this still goes back to Lab Zero themselves. Instead of having a vote for every single character, if they really wanted to create a voting structure that would incentivize more donations as well as controlling who gets in each voting cycle. They should have only revealed a single row at a time based on backer milestones and held the votes between those characters. But hindsight is 20/20 and I've long since learned that L0 has real issues managing their shit.

>>16620429

The funniest part about it? The game has been worked on for 7 years of feature creep and you can tell just how much SA, cuckchan and internet culture has changed by looking the dialogue from the demo and game info and comparing it to what's written right about now. SA is now hosting furries getting offended that the first Barkley game had an entire chapter dedicated to furry-bashing, which is doubly funny considering the furries were depicted positively with only the main character being a mouthpiece for the devs. We're reaching levels of clown world that are supposed to be forbidden.

Gotta love how they cut out the two huwhite males.

>>16619828

I'd say they should have a) limited the options to the characters that actually matter (half that line-up is utter garbage) and b) don't promise shit if you can't deliver. But indeed, hindsight is 20/20.

>>16620456

It's dead, Jim. Ahad's too spineless to tell everyone off and now too much of a whore to make something that isn't a slideshow of references. Had he the right kind of tard-wrangler, things could have turned out very differently.

Was there an anon screeching about me? I didn't get to see his posts, they got deleted.

Hope Anon gets this message:

I don't have anyone blocked on Discord. My old account got deleted due to ILLEGAL ILLUSTRATIONS INVOLVING UNDERAGE CHARACTERS (which is bullshit because I'm not even into lolishit and they didn't bother to show me the offending post, maybe if I had posted cub porn instead they would've put me on the Discord mod team). If you wanna talk to me just post your name here and I'll get back to you.

All I know is I want to put my peepee between Mariel's thighs :^)

>NFSW artists are bitching about moaning about DAT RAYYCISM

Ya'know, I jerk off as much as the next degenerate, but what's up with some of these cummie obsessed morons and their leftist bullshit?

>>16621815

It really is amusing how high and mighty they act when they're entire use to society is churning out pictures people wank to. They're an easily replaceable luxury that serves no higher purpose than momentary distraction, so maybe this is their way to do something "important." Regardless, these people should understand better than most that attacking an artist's source of income for making art they find subjectively unpleasant is a cudgel that will beat them before anybody else.

If they make porn of women, the feminists will readily do the same to them. If they make gay porn, most religious groups would readily do the same to them. If they make weird fetish shit, damn near anybody would readily do the same to them out of sheer disgust. They live on a very delicate raft, and they're rocking the boat.

Part of me wants to dig up dirt on these insufferable people and report them to Patreon just on the principle of it, now.

>>16621805

I don't get how these fags think that getting offended despite the fact that all of this started because they got offended will make it stop.

>>16621815

>>16621846

Many nsfw artist are full of shit, they draw the most fucked up thing possible and think that is some kind of sexual liberty statement when in reality the only reason someone puts attention to them is because they make porn simple as that. Is even worse when they mix politics into that or when they complain because someone didn't want to mix politics.

>>16620587

>>16620456

>How can Skullgirls be saved?

The core idea was fine: Make a better Marvel vs Capcom 2 and cut out the bullshit infinites and include sexy women. The obvious problem with the community around the game was that the Devs fell in with the SoCalArts crowd and started feeling some level of shame about sexy women. I'm less interested in fixing that aspect since at the end of the day if the game was still fun I'd still be playing it. If you wanted to start fixing this game you could:

<Finishing the base story

Ahad's story encompasses more than what the base game should have included, but the base game needed Marie, Black Dahlia, and Umbrella. Even if it's just for lorefags a single serving Fighting game should have a beginning, middle, and end to it's story arc. As it stands it has nothing but cliffhangers.

<Make the final boss playable

No fighting game in this day and age should have an unplayable final boss. That stuff was fine back in the arcade days where the final boss might be an unplayable mess that exists solely to eat quarters but those days are long gone. In addition to finishing the base game, and assuming lab Zero would have followed through, Marie herself adds an interesting wrinkle to Skullgirls that no other fighting game can lay claim too. That being the ability to absorb downed characters for a power boost. That idea alone plays off of some of the things that makes Skullgirls unique like bodies not disappearing after a KO, and having a ratio based team game. Scythana was also a character that was presented as being able to interact with downed characters and Valentine has a revive move. All of this leads into my next point

<Stronger character gimmicks

I'm not saying Skullgirls doesn't have neat gimmicks for characters. All of the new characters have one like Hype meter, Noise Cancelling, and whatever Squigly does. And of the old roster off the top of my head maybe 1/2 have something only they can do like Valentine's vials or Head-on/off for Ms. Fortune. But some feel so light, even for a 3v3 team fighter where characters are usually more simple. My idea is simple, add some more complexity to character gimmicks such as

>Giving Beowulf EX versions of special moves that consume Hype meter. Put the meter on screen so people know how many charges they have

>Making Sekhmet more akin to Valkenhyne's wolf form. Tie her to her own independent meter, give her some special moves

>roll back some of the nerfs to Ms Fortune. Her head-off got mangled since it was really strong on release and hasn't really been the same since.

And for new characters really sell that unique mechanic. Games like Guilty Gear and Killer Instinct are examples of how to make a large cast feel varied because most characters have their own mini-game or win-condition they are aiming for outside of "reduce the opponent to 0 HP". Skullgirls is dominated by rushdown characters who can feel a bit samey at times.

<Fix the IPS

It's broken, the game is still dominated by one touch combos and endless resets.

<Less terrible jokes and puns

Whoever suggested replacing voice lines with grunts and such, he's right.

>>16621490

Pic related is for you

>>16622197

>And my point still stands that my characters are even more varied.

I said it earlier here (>>16619828) but saying characters are either sexy hourglasses or non sexy hourglasses is just wrong. And if someone were to be equally vague with your game they could say it's only got sexy muscle women or less buff sexy girl. Discounting what a character is wearing or how they are posed misses the entire point of what I think Silhouette theory in games is about; being able to identify a character at a glance. You absolutely can differentiate every Skullgirls character purely on their outline and no, not everyone has the same figure even if they are mostly supposed to be sexy. Not sure how you think Painwheel or Peacock are sexy though.

>>16623118

They dropped out of the hobby to fight the good fight. Now mutts and subhumans take their place.

I'm lurking for lewds.

>>16623140

The problem with the "diversity is our strength" clique is that they have no fucking idea what they're talking about. Genetically, yes, adding a bit of randomness into the equation with racemixing does help improve the gene pool, a gated community that only fucks with each other can only evolve so much, but the problem is that the number of people participating in racemixing need to be very few, so that the effects ripples down via the Common Ancestor theory (look up Joseph Chang). What people who want open borders are effectively asking for is to be swarmed by thousands of uncultured people from lecherous races. They're not integrating their cultures but rather quite literally taking over the place and replacing the main culture with their own death cults.

>>16623489

the post

>>16623485

>help improve the gene pool

every time the human genome replicates itself there are roughly 100 new mutations, even extreme small poputation of 500 or so could eventually (after few generations) have all the genetic diversity needed, you'd only need to make sure inbreeding doesn't happen, slow genetic diversity increase by mutations is better than sudden impact of alien gene pool

>>16617987

Prototype was fun, but so much changed that it probably doesn't mean much. They're adding a lot of things that are unessecarry. I still want it to be good, but that's not happening.

>>16618387

>Pirated Skullgirls

>Missed update

Damn shame they did that. I liked Skullgirls a lot. But i guess percieved maturity is better than letting the game be fun.

I wish this didn't have to happen. They made a fun game, but now I'm not sure if that was genuine skill, or a fluke. I'll keep playing the pre-update version. I'd rather a fun game that's "immature" than a neutered game for "mature" people. My excitement for Indivisible is long gone, but I regret having any in the first place. My dissapointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined.

>>16621805

>>16621846

These are the same kind of faggots that actively "work" for corporations to censor and regulate everything.

>>16624332

The initial incident involving nessa involved a nip artist drawing some fan art. She wasn't brown enough so twitter flipped its shit, calling it "whitewashing". This led to arguments on lighting, skin tone, whether twitter is retarded, ect. Eventually people just said "fuck it!" and started drawing nessa with light skin on purpose, often drawing her white/japanese instead of brown because some nips are realizing that westerners are kidn of retarded in regards to this sort of thing.

I'm trying to find the original pic but here's some of the piss-takes drawn. Called "Shiny Nessa" sometimes.

>>16624327

WRONG

it's a fetishmy fetish to be precise

>>16624344

Found it. The guy's called @naju0517 on twitter if you want to see the shit flung towards him.

>>16624358

I wish there was some effective way to tell the Nips to keep away from the cultural poison that Western civilization has become.

Same

>>16624349

Maybe. But not in this particular instance, i'd assume.

>>16624327

The piss makers and rectal ragnaroks are both entertaining.

>>16624332

If it's a fan art, it has to be exact same tone and if it's official, it's never dark enough. Or I can not bullshit you and say it doesn't matter, those faggots are gonna find or make up something to get mad about.

>>16624344

I know chinks throw "white left" as a insult but seems nips are now really wising up to this shit, probably courtesy of Soyny that cemented them being fucked over because someone on the other side of the planet is being a little bitch. Now we got this chimp out that, on the bright side, has made these morons the target for bigger mockery.

>>16624349

>>16622256

>Whoever suggested replacing voice lines with grunts and such, he's right.

I think the lines themselves are fine, it's just that the characters never shut up. I received a Steam key for Skullgirls (minus Second Encore) when I bought another game through Humble Bundle, and in my half hour of lab time I did genuinely like the voice acting and banter.

>playing as valentine

>do a combo on fillia

>once she techs out, she says "we'll show you!" and samson answers "hell yeah!"

>valentine replies "oh really, now?"

The spirit of the interaction was very neat, and something I haven't seen in many other games. Even stuff like GG and BB only have smaller interactions (Terumi has specific taunts idle animation taunts for Ragna, for instance). It's been a while since I touched Skullgirls, but I also remember being extremely annoyed at the full sentences every character would say when being called as an assist, or when doing certain normal/special moves. Those would often result in the characters cutting themselves off, which is very jarring in English compared to Japanese, since I don't speak the latter.

>>16624403

I'm just waiting for some cheeky cunt to add "I made her more ugh. Hire me." when posting a fanart. Start a ugh-of-war with those morons.

>>16624443

>I think the lines themselves are fine, it's just that the characters never shut up.

The yappin' was part of why I dropped the game though it was one aspect of a bigger, uglier thing which is all the goddamned references. SG single-handedly made me despise the use of references in games because of how obnoxiously heavy-handed and overused they are. Why add some dumb shit that will make the game age like milk for the sake of cheap instant gratification? That in turn, is a part of an even bigger and uglier thing which was the mindless pandering to get FGC-senpai to notice SG-chan - characters spouting memes, shitty palettes that made little sense, mechanics or moves blatantly stolen from other games etc name what makes your wiener tickle and Kike Z is enough of a whore to do it…provided it doesn't take much work, of course.

I'm sure Brown Girl Adventure is gonna be the same only for tumblrettes instead of the Furry Gay Community.

Where do you find invisible porn? I can never find any! No seriously, I was literally just thinking about this and I need to know where you get it.

Seeing so much interracial shit with anime and niggers is just getting to me. Now every time I see a black character in anything I thing it's the Jew's trying to black'd my circus'

>>16626252

You can check the booru's but it's an incredibly niche fetish so what's been posted in this thread is arguably some of the better examples of it.

That being said stuff like >>16626231 misses what I think is the appeal of invisible characters. You don't want to see your dick like it's just another x-ray shot, having your stuff disappear into the warm aether of her body is where it's at.

>>16624443

>The spirit of the interaction was very neat

That's not something I really noticed outside of the round openers but I agree. The idea is great and it could have really added some character to this game, but because characters are really wordy and these lines are attached to moves that by nature of the genre can be cancelled early. You wind up getting a word salad in the midst of a battle which doesn't sound great which I largely tune out. A better balance would be less lines during actual combat or at least more brief lines.

>>16626300 (nice)

I feel the same way toodespite being non white myself The amount of racial fetishism given by left wingers is disturbing. They can't just judge blacks by the content of their character instead of the melanin content of their skin.If they were to realize what they're doing was racist(which they never will) they'd freak out the hell out but mental gymnastics are a bitch.

Seems like living proof that the pic is true. Also yes juicing is a heavy part of body building. This is fact. Everyone at the "body sculpture" level is on some form of skittles.

To be fair most heavy weights are on skittles to some degree or another, but especially in body building/sculpting competitions.

Meanwhile, pics related are world's strongest man competitions, and you note a very clear lack of "body sculpted" physique here. Everybody is bear-bodied in various degrees because, like the pic said, the body looks a lot different with raw strength. Function over form.

That's what most people in here wish for.

>>16624443

Interactions themselves are fine, it's more about the memes that add nothing to the game, unless you're using custom voice lines that were sold just for being memes.

>>16627233

The problem with nigger characters in modern vidya is that they're insincere. When the mulatto 56%er who made Toejam and Earl made, well, Toejam and Earl, he drove inspiration from his own cultural background and mixed heritage to make characters that he "felt" were black despite not being any. When people wrote shit like Garcian Smith or N. Morgan from Sid Meyer's Alpha Centauri they thought of a character first and foremost, not just putting some gay nigger lesbian faggot who can kill hundreds of thousands of nazis just by talking about his oppression to them. It's not the fact they're black or brown or yellow or orange or blue that matters, as much as how the people who make these BLACKED.COM characters just put them front and center to show how virtuous they are. They couldn't give a shit about the actual plight of African Americans or actual Africans, they just want to be pat on the back and told they're on the right side of history or some dumb shit, otherwise they'd support that Ethiopian dev team making that weir all-black JRPG.

>>16630672

>Valentine in particular has the vials and that thing where she can stun an opponent if they attack her

I keep telling everyone /agdg/ing, debuffs and anything that limits player mobility and offence are the dumbest fucking things in a multiplayer centered game, unless it's shit like HttF where you need quite a long startup and consume meter in mere seconds when performing time stop. If the execution or cost isn't great there's no reason to make these techs available. You can literally just down your enemy and ready a vial. It's that ez

>>16630740

>>16630940

Add to this that there's a third kind of buff, the "strength by labor" kind that is a bit of a mix of the two, strong and toned but weighed by age and fatigue.

>>16631337

Don't poke that thing, lest you be harassed by a bunch of nobodies claiming to be the biggest fans.

I don't mind games when they let you have different size, shape, and skin color, and gender options. That's what lets you create absurdities that are humorous, and shouldn't exist. What I DO mind is making it the sole reason why anyone makes a game. The game comes first, not your agenda, and it better be a damn good one too.

>>16632754

Wonder how you would even canonize Girlowulf. Maybe make it so that Aeon or somebody with time travel fuckery pulls Girl Band and Girl Wulf from a timeline where they were always female, so they can be Skullgirl candidates.
