I swear there's someone else who likes it.
>>344950316
never heard of it, I'll look it up
>>344947516
Is that the new Savage? How is that? Really enjoyed the first one, but I don't want to risk buying the new one still in Early Access, specially considering right now there are 3 players online.
>>344950687
It's very much like the first. Devs are very based, gave out some keys that last until EA ends which I grabbed, they make major updates every few days and they listen. It's really good.
>>344950220
post your gems then anon
>>344950859
That's really good to know. Hope it turns out well when it releases. Not the biggest fan of S2 because of how they managed HoN, but Savage was a really good game.
>>344951031
What's the story with HoN? Never played it.
I think Sony has the rights to Draken at this point so I don't think a patched up Steam version would happen.
Shit is so good, game world is so massive. I mean shit this game came out in 99, compare that to other games from that time and tell me this shit is not impressive as hell.
Even the PS2 only sequel is good but it's smaller in scope and a little more action than the more exploration driven first game
>>344951501
is it possible to play on win 10?
>>344951252
A bunch of fuck ups. Their founder (Maliken) was a retard who raged and flamed everyone ingame, banned people who disagreed with him, buffed/nerfed shit that he liked/dislike, etc. Then there was the F2P switch when Dota 2 stole all its players, and it had a pretty shitty business model, with early access to OP heroes to people who paid money. I think since then they abandoned it and began working on their next MOBA, Strife, which was DoA. There was a lot of mismanagement and retarded decisions made on that game, but it was still pretty fun, though I'll always remember the retards who manage the company.
>>344951590
Yup, install from iso, install the community patch (google it it pop right up) and it runs great. KB&M only though
>>344947516
WHHHOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASAVAGE!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b8NDwMqaGWA
>>344951641
damn. Does he still work there? That fucking sucks.
>>344951693
Thanks man. Is it not designed for KB+M?
>>344951897
Yes it is, I mean I got no issue with KB&M but I've tried to turn others onto it and they are not into the idea of a 50hr long RPG with KB&M.
Even I wish it had gamepad support if only to sit back on my comfy sofa and my surround sound setup to play a little. Granted I know you got those boards for KB&M to be used on a sofa but at that point i'll just move back to the desk
Someone else here must have played this
>>344951897
He probably does. He is the founder of S2 after all. Still, as long as the game turns out well, it should be fine, and I have hopes that they're turning the company around. The nature of HoN, being pretty much a Dota port, was why they did so many dumb decisions and mistakes, but Savage is something they already know and created, so there are less chances for them to screw shit up.
>>344950316
it's pretty fun
wouldn't exactly call it a hidden gem considering it's featured in /egg/ though
>>344952332
Fuck. Any screencaps of him doing that shit?
>>344952278
I actually bought a ps1 for this game but never actually played it. I got spyro the dragon instead and do not regret it
NaissanceE is so underrated.
>>344952738
Searching 'S2 Maliken' on Google gives a lot of examples of him being a retard ingame. Here's one of those.
>>344952278
Had it and beat it. I liked it as a kid but recently watched a let's play of it and the game looks pretty fucking awful. Could have been another great series with some polish imo

The only racing game I've ever really loved.
>>344953846
I actually don't like racing games, what makes it different?
>>344947516
Out of my way, plebs.
There's a reason not many people have played it: The real ending is DLC, the game is like 50% cutscenes and QTE's, and the actual gameplay is shallow and reptitive.
But, in terms of presentation, art design, music, characters (both design, voice acting, and personality/writing), the story, the just sheer stupidity of how over the top it is, it's an absolute spectacle.
You like over the top action anime? How does DBZ x god of war X g gundam x Gurren lagann sound? The game is absolutely fucking absurd and it will take you on the wildest god damn ride if you can apperciate it as an interactive anime rather then a game.
The game starts out with you jumping off a spaceship in the middle of a massive battle, hurtling through the eart's atmosphere, and bunching a monster the size of north america in the face, and that's not even in the top 5 most insane things that happen in the game. It's probably not even in the top 10.
Seriously,, just watch it on youtube at least if you don't want to play it,that's what I did, and here I am 600$ out from buying every artbook I can find for it and fawning over it on an imageboard
>>344955704

Oh good, one of these.
Obscure, or ObsCure if you're a weirdo. Best Resident Evil clone I've played, made by the French.
Great levels, fantastic soundtrack, terrible art direction, controls actually pretty well. Has fixed camera angles but no tank controls, so you're pretty flighty.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_TGlPR48Ins
Just one caveat: there's this dumbass co-op mechanic. You don't have to use it. Just stick to a character, leave the rest back at the hub outside of the like, 2 places where you need a second pair of hands to reach a vent or something.
Also on Steam. Use a gamepad.
http://store.steampowered.com/app/254460/
>>344956294
>terrible art direction
I meant terrific.
I was thinking of the co-op mechanic when I wrote that. Seriously, don't use it, the AI is fucking braindead.
>>344956018
A; I really fucking loved it. It was like I was 7 years old again discovered DBZ for the first time.It's easily in my top 3 games of all time despite the fact I haven't even played the damn thing just based on how much fun I had watching it, Hell, I might have even liked it less if I had to slog through the gameplay, which nobody has praised.
B: the game has an absurd amount of artbooks. There's one that comes with the limited edition, there's a dgital one that comes in a steelbook, there's a "official perfect works" that is the only one with an english release, and then there's 8 behind the scene magazines. There's also 2 manga volumes.
Essentially, capcom thought this would be a huge new IP for them and is why Megaman legends 3 got cancelled, to put funding into this,but the game bombed super hard.
>>344956237
I remember being hype for this as a kid but it turned out bad. Does it still require sixaxis? what was wrong with is? sixaxis was the weirdest feature, why did sony have it? what games even used it?
PROPER SEQUEL ON PS4 FUCKING WHEN?!
>>344956756
>why did sony have it?
"Innovation" was a big thing at the time.
>what games even used it?
I remember that Ratchet and Clank: Crack in Time had a few sections where you could optionally use it, along with a few other launch titles.
It was a stupid fucking feature.
![kickle-cubicle-nintendo[1].jpg](https://i.imgur.com/eDcg4Yi.jpg "kickle-cubicle-nintendo[1].jpg")
No, really.
/v/ knows about this game, but I rarely see it mentioned anywhere else. I'd also like to mention Gunman Chronicles.
>>344955648
It's made by the same guys who made Twisted Metal and it plays like a mix of that and SSX/SSX3 or Tony Hawks Undergound
.
It's also really loose in terms of realism, especially for a sports game, which is a main source of the games awesomeness.
I've hit a ramp at the same time I hit a speed boost power-up and jumped over a helicopter hovering ~150 feet in the air while doing 17 front flips and 23 other tricks all at the same time, then landed without a hitch from a 200 foot fall, and then pegged the 2 racers ahead of me with heat-seeking water bottles I got as a reward for the tricks for instant kills putting me squarely in first place.
In terms of speed, you can go from 0 to 60 mph in under a few seconds and there's a ton of power-ups that speed you along as well.
The maps are extremely vertical with a ton of alternate routes as well a "black diamond" challenge routes that give you points as long as you're on them. They're all loosely based on real life locations too.
There's a Volcano in Hawaii where you can ride in lava, a Siberian Military Base, etc.
The characters are all stereotypes like in SSX. You got a rich British ponce, big Samoan brawler guy, thrill-seeking American base-jumper, etc.
There's a ton of unlockables too like real life BMX racers and even a Sci-Fi movie monster. You can also unlock Sheep and Llama's to ride in place of a bike.

It's a decent example of the game, it's being played a litttle slow though.

>>344953001
this is a great game, very surreal, reminds me of a dark mirrors edge crossed with antichamber.
Aidyn Chronicles: The First Mage. It released very late in the N64's cycle, looked like shit even at the time, and the gameplay was plodding. But the worldbuilding, story, characters were all fantastic - I really wish it had been done as an isometric game in the style of Baldur's Gate.
>>344959868
check the pinned thread on the forums, I dont know
>>344957282
What makes it worse is knowing Bethesda bought them and still didn't bring over their combat expertise to TES.

One last webm that I think encapsulates the game's sense of stupid over the top action perfectly
>>344957264
Oh shit it this the mercury game on psp? I loved that shit.
>>344960951
I played the first game, the one that people are always talking about. It was okay, dug the 2.5D design, the enemy designs were that special brand of complete trash that you saw in the likes of Blinx the Timesweeper or Gurumin: A Monstrous Adventure.
How does this one hold up?
>>344960960
so why does this game click for you?
Best fucking JRPG.
>>344961204
I have a thing for stupid over the top action that knows how fucking dumb it's being but doesn't care.
It's like all the best parts of DBZ without any of the bad parts, but with 20x the sense of scale. You start out punching monsters the size of continents, and end off shrugging off stars being thrown at you and fighting reality warpers inside of black holes
If none of what i''ve said excites you or the webm doesn't make you smile at least a little bit, then maybe it's not for you. But if you like shonen, Chinese kung fu movies, toku, or super robo, then the game's for you. .

I loved the first Savage and I still have a CD-R of it in my desk with the CD key written on it. My first digital game purchase, come to think of it.
They eventually made humans way too good, though. The melee range nerf was the final nail in the coffin.
i dont think ive ever seen it discussed on /v/
It fucking hurts when a game you love is a masterpiece and nobody will even give it a shot
Just got this running a few days ago on Win10. As long as you install all the patches (+ the one community patch) and use dgVoodoo it works fine.
I wonder how much longer we are gonna be able to run these old PC games without needing a full blown windows emulator. At this point you need a DX wrapper to get a lot of the older games to run right on Win10. Plus if the old game used EAX or anything like that you gotta use a EAX wrapper.
At some point a full blown emulator is gonna be needed for win98 games
Haven't had this much fun with a game in a while, the vehicle variety is amazing and the feel of the weapons is greatexcept for the Lockdown, that piece of shit really needs a buff.

The writing is pretty iffy with the MC's love interest, but the gameplay, music, and art outshine the writing. El Huervo (who did the some of the art for the Hotline Miami games and contributed a few songs) did most of the music and art for E H.B() and I think it's just really great.

>>344961647
My main issue with this game is that it's literally just a series of quick time events. It doesn't feel very satisfying from a gameplay perspective for me because it feels like i'm doing "mash buttons for next cutscene" rather than actually being involved and engaged with the game.
And I'm a sucker for over the top shounen shit too
>>344960951
Don't ever think about starting a Klonoa thread.
>>344969430
>It doesn't feel very satisfying from a gameplay perspective for me because it feels like i'm doing "mash buttons for next cutscene" rather than actually being involved and engaged with the game.
And I get that, which is why whenever I recommend it, i'm careful to say that it's more of an interactive anime then a game, and it''s best enjoyed as such.
>>344965138
That Xtreme-G 3? Fantastic series that used to be very popular on the N64. 3 was my favourite though.
>>344967124

No, they've implemented a path that lets it play like a normal game and it's pretty good that way.
Criminally short, but insanely fun.

I'm sure a lot of people on /v/ have played these games, but never seems to get much mention. Solid games.
>>344969430
Not him but I usually dislike Shonen and even I loved Asura's Wrath. I must have watched it twice or trice on youtube before buying the game and playing it myself. Yeah, it's almost just QTE but doing it yourself felt better than just watching it.
Just think of it as an anime.
Ace combat 4,5 and 0
Not that much but its considered

This was the best game, and I am only describing the tip of the iceberg. I will never enjoy a game as much as I enjoyed this one.

When I started playing it I was blown away and was really looking forward to playing it, then it pulled a Ghost Recon and started spawning enemies in the middle of the mission for forced action sequences, had a linear vehicle shooter mission and a retarded system for explosives that completely ruins them. Haven't been able to force myself through the desert missions since.
>>344979247
What. Those two games are nothing alike.

Why? You wander a cartoony fantasy world ignoring an inconsequential plot and clicking through inconsequential dialogue to get to the tactical turn based combat, occasionally upgrading your stats, gear or spells.

It's nothing, absolutely nothing like DivOS.

Wtf man. This is one of the most criminally underrated games out there. La-Mulana is a masterpiece.
>>344982406
No, but you can level your dragon that sends a shoal of fish to bite at your enemies or a geyser that lifts them up and crashes them into the ground. Or something to that effect, it's been a while.
>is there cryptic adventure game like puzzles?
No, but DivOS doesn't have those either.
Actually, I seem to recall you could find some special items that you'd have to figure out how and where to use in Armored Princess.

This is the kind of game that keep my hopes up for the independent scene in general.
>>344982693
OP said hidden gem Annon, not underrated games.
Also if anything, La Mulana isn't underrated at all.
>>344982732
so it's nothing like div os except the faux isometric. your characters arent restricted by races or specis, just stats.
there is a really frustrating quiz you must solve to use the tree something to teleport to the final boss. also a find the corresponding item puzzle that is hidden in obscure corner of the map.
it's like
>>344982680
Way to not understand shit about vidya.
Heroes is a strategy. KB and Div are both tactical RPGs, where the battles are the main focus and the rest is just filler and hunting for upgrades.
>>344957282
>I hardly finish games.
>Finished both Dark Messiah and Gunman Chronicles before /v/
feels good
>>344983219
Except Heroes and KB combat systems are very similar.
Equipment in KB is the same as artifacts in Heroes
Collecting resources and exploration is present in both except Heroes obviously focuses more on town building and is turn based.
Both games were designed by the same guy even.
I wouldn't even consider KB an rpg. It's a tactical combat game.
>>344956884
Great game
>>344983745
>I wouldn't even consider KB an rpg. It's a tactical combat game.
And here we arrive at the main point: so is DivOS.
>>344983971
So by that logic, any rpg that has combat in it is not actually an rpg? You can still build different characters in DivOS. Is KOTOR not an rpg either?
I don't get why you so assblasted about DivOS in particular.
>>344984164
>You can still build different characters in DivOS
You can also do that in KB. Or Battlefield.
The game has zero C&C or even dialogue choices, you just click every line until you run out of options, NPCs exist only to expose you to the plot or give you quests or sell you shit.
Come to think of it, KB might have more C&C because I distinctly remember a couple of quests that you could finish in different ways. Or at least arrive at the combat through different dialogue lines.
>>344984734
>zero C&C or even dialogue choices
Did we play the same game?
>>344984734
>Clicking "I don't want to fight you but I'll fight you anyway(attack)" or "Die (attack)" is considered C&C
I love KB but let's not get fucking delusional here. You've made it pretty clear that you just dislike DivOS at this point. What you're doing is akin to comparing an FPS to a TPS, yes both have shooting but they aren't the same.
>>344984956
They were supposed to rewrite the game from scratch for the enhanced edition so it's possible.
>>344985196
Nah I'm positive there were more than 1 quest in Armored Princess that involved a conflict between NPCs and you could finish it differently depending on who you sided with.

It's a SNES horror adventure game with a really good english translation

DS9/Babylon 5: The unofficial game.

It's like a much emptier, much browner GTA, but the destruction physics ARE pretty good.
EA Skate
Most people didn't give it a chance because they're either not into Skateboarding, or sucking Tony Hawks dick. But, this game was so fluid, and so crisp.
It was incredible. The game plays so smooth, it's pretty much all with the analog sticks, flicking, rolling, popping. You would be grinding, and you could move the sticks, and you'd shift the board to a different style grind. It all mattered about how you landed the board, from board slides, to nose grinds, to tailblunt slides.
They had late flips, triple kickflips, 360 shoveits, grab tweaks, full physics and realistic bails. The sound track was great from The White Stripes to Public Enemy. It's a game you can just do the same line a little bit different, over and over again from your check point marker, and not even realize where your hours went.

So what's it like to be completely wrong in life?
>>344988369
definitely worth checking out, its main selling point is exploding shit with destruction physics
>>344988828
It controls like shit, dude, fuck are you on about.
Levels were pretty good. Benefits of being an obvious multiplayer game outfitted to be single-player, can't get away with corridor shit.

Does that count as a hidden gem or did it have too much publicity on /v/?
>>344951501
I thought I was the only motherfucker who played this.
Fuck this game was so amazing
>>344988993
It has daily threads man.
>>344988972
It controls fucking fantastic, response to every command is instant and precise, that's especially noticeable today when playing modern shit like new GTA where character needs to make a circle the size of a football field to turn around so his animation doesn't look weird to the normalfags.

Can't wait for the sequel. Maran Gor best god btw.

I never understood this game, there's simply not really much to do.
Wild 9 for Playstation.
I just remember being a little psycho and just picking people up with your telekinetic whip thing and smashing them around. God I loved this game.
Gauntlet 4 "quest mode" on genesis is still the best gauntlet game
basically any time you hit a glowing tile that alters the level, that change is permanent, but everything else respawns when you return, including pots, food, keys, monsters, lairs, etc, so you have to approach each level from multiple directions to find all the glowing tiles, usually with more difficult fights
each tower has a gimmick, like tiles that hurt you, or tiles with no friction. you have to find "super secret" items that counter the effect of these tiles or give you abilities like bouncing projectiles
you can level up lots of things, speed, projectile speed, projectile damage, magic, defense etc, as well as buy items that increase them as well
it plays better, and has more elements than modern games of this type
>>344989760
I love how ads in magazines and the back of the box advertise it with how many ways there are to torture and kill your enemies.
>>344989685
Did you form a Tribe, become a King and marry the Emperor too?
>>344989289
If hyperanimation is your criteria for decent controls, no wonder you think so highly of this jank wet-fish slapfight with the loosest footsies known to man.
No wonder you continually shill this garbage. "Amazing bow mechanics" you sure had time to get acquainted with them, kiting enemies throughout entire fucking levels to fish for headshots.
Dancing like a fucking parkinson's patient, compensating for lag that isn't there in levels that are so great you'll get "Leaving The Mission" messages for straying too far.
For fuck's sake, man, Enclave controls like absolute fucking garbage. Your goddamn shilling made me pull it out again and it's exactly as fucking bad as I remember. Fuck you.
For the briefest moment I thought "Hang on a minute, was past me a fucking idiot? WAS Enclave the hottest shit ever?". No. You're just a twat.

i know >J.A.W but it's a pretty damn good game.
>>344990412
Souls didn't even exist when I bought the game, pissant.
>>344990126
Except you technically weren't doing shit because forming a tribe as a war clan is hard as fuck and you were making everyone your enemy.

BRUH THIS WAS MY SHIT!! I remember randomly picking it up for like £5 at Game yeaaaaars ago and I played the shit out of it.
>>344990690
Is that from the guys who made Caesar, Pharaoh and Zeus?
>>344989526
shitty, broken games that no one except /v/ plays are not "hidden gems", they are just shitty, broken games.
>>344989526
I hope that the third one turns out nicely.
What i really wonder though is how well known these games are for the younger generations. I am for example playing through Mafia 1 right now. Would a random 15 year with an interest in gaming know about that game? How about Max Payne, Kotor, Black & White, etc etc.
>>344991036
But it's not broken, that's why you play Renaissance
>>344991073
I'd like this a lot more if you could just Disgaea it and turn off combat animations. Talk about deliberately wasting my fucking time.
>>344990851
Yeah, it's from Sierra.
It's pretty much NMS but with story, quests and building your own robot bases on planet.
>>344991261
iirc the fan patch included a key to fast forward animations and shit
>>344991540
Looks like I'm downloading the fan patch.
>>344991669
it was real handy when visiting that fire lava planet with its unskippable landing and takeoff cutscenes
This is great.
>>344989784
Sounds pretty cool.
Slightly slow, but really fun arena FPS. Had really good campaign too, so you don't have to be tied to multiplayer.
It's a console shooter through and through, but you can fix the FOV. It has a great story which is told through great gameplay, with a unique setting the game uses very well.
>>344992290
>console shooter
What? I'm pretty sure Cryostasis is a PC game, especially since it's made by slavs and they don't play on consoles.
