why are all of the E's capitalized
>mp5 on cover
>no mp5 in game
explain this valvefags
It would be just another useless low damage SMG anyway
>mp5
That's clearly a UMP-45
Pretty sure it's a FAMAS
What was the last game you finished and when was it?
>>345428416
Tales from the Borderlands.
Day before yesterday.
Furi like a week ago. Good game, but short.
>>345428416
Doom 2, mid 90's
How good are you at drawing video game characters
>>345342705
Decent. I don't really like to draw fanart, though.
I'm pretty good.

Just an idea I've been thinking about, but in the end what's the point of competitive or ranked modes in games?
Unless you wanted to git gud and go to a pro player level such as EVO or LCS or whatever the fuck pro competitive Overwatch is, then there's no reason. When will that number you have that shows your skill satisfy you enough to say, "alright, I'm good enough now. I can stop playing."
I can explain this better using examples I think.
>Overwatch
Overwatch is a team based game that let's you show SOME degree of skill on your own however you won't win if it's you versus a full team of six. So the fun is getting together with some friends, or alone with strangers, and putting that skill on display to shit on another team of players. But you don't need a competitive mode to accomplish this.
You get a high rank and you A: go play pro and be a pro gamer. B: Use your talent to stream. Other than that it's just wanting a number to go up.
>street fighter and fighting games
Fighting games are always a one versus one scenario meaning that their inherent fun is shitting on other people. The games are about learning characters and displaying skill but you don't need a competitive mode to accomplish this.
In the end you either A: go to a pro level like EVO. Or B: use your talent to stream. Otherwise how many people do you need to beat competitively to feel satisfied?
>EVE online and MMO's
Now I'm just using EVE as an example and I am in no way implying it's a perfect example of competitive play, however I do think it's an example of fleshed out pvp in MMO's.
The thing about EVE is pvp is available from the start and the fun is teaming up with a huge group of people to take on other huge groups and shitting on them to the point to where they can't shit on you any longer.
But there is no "pro EVE" because the game is competitive by nature. The pvp IS the pro league. It doesn't need a pro league or ranked gameplay to make the pvp interesting
>1/2
>>345342365
2/2
You could argue that competition by it's nature is fun. And you'd be right. But you don't need to have a ranked mode to inspire competition. Look at normals in LoL or quick play in Overwatch and see how serious people take it.
This problem never stems in singleplayer games. The end game of singleplayer games is to see and experience something new. And if the content for those games is good enough the game will stick around.
The fun of multiplayer only games is winning competitions. However when you lose or take multiple losses in these games your objective becomes about not having fun but becoming better to make sure you win and continue to have fun
Ironically by doing this you increase your skill and run into others with higher skill levels giving you a less chance for winning and a less chance for fun.
>>345342365
it tricks people into thinking the game is more than just a game.
i've heard retards say things like: "games that don't have ranks are meaningless" as if games that do have ranks are somehow meaningful
basically it's just the "epic number goes up" meme (see: league of legends, cookie clicker, clicker heroes etc)
>>345342365
theres no point really.. i got to challenger, spot #22 in league of legends, and i quit, i "beat" the game, i was playing with the top people, and i was winning too. there was no point in keeping playing..
also i got gladiator spot at WoW, and server #1 team in 2v2... also i quit playing there was no point, i proved myself i was good, i was a top player, i was around the best people... so there was no motivation left
like you said, if you wont go pro or stream, theres no point, just proving your e-peen
FYI slut is a banned name in amiibo nicknames so none of us can accurately name our Marie amiibos.
>Treehouse localization persona
>accurate
>>345343734
Did they screw up localization of Splatoon?
>>345344148
They made it wacky. The European localization is more accurate.
Daily reminder the SNES mini and N64 mini are going to happen
What games would you like to see one them?
>>345342003
ability to add more games to them
hopefully a better controller for N64
dont care, i already have a flash cart for both consoles.

Is there any franchise with a higher fall from grace than pic related?
Seriously I can't think of any other franchise that tried to revitalize itself with gimmicky peripherals then attempt to go back to its roots and released a glitch ridden piece of shit
5 was not an attempt to "go back to it's roots". It was a cash-in before they lost the rights to the tony hawk name.
>>345428273
>5 was not an attempt to "go back to it's roots
yes it was.
tony hawk even said so himself.
There was no attempt to "return to it's roots".
Activision knew they had fucked up for sitting on the rights to the game for too long and then panicked by shitting a horribly unfinished game into store shelves literally 1 day before their rights expired.
Oh, and they shipped out the entire game as a day 1 patch because they technically weren't allowed to rerelease it in stores.
You faggots will argue about anything.
>>345341773
Shut the fuck up, faggot.
Both are good games that differentiate themselves to enjoy separately, why should we argue about which one is better or worse
I don't like cuss words
So who was the bad guy in this?
>>345341756
Arthas, clearly. Illidan too, to an extent. One's now a soulless servant to the Lich King, the other (who I'll admit is more anti-hero than villain) while attempting to stop him, is only doing so to get his ass out of hot water with his demonic butt-buddies.
You can debate Arthas' status as a hero or villain in RoC all you want, but by TFT he's gone completely evil.
The Lich King
>>345341756
Everyone besides the warden. Elf boy before his campaign ending, sadly.
>ps2 is retro
How fast time went
>ps2 was out 16 years ago
>people on this board right now were born after the ps2
>>345341645
>only 2 more years until people still pretending the Gamecube was good
Can't fucking wait
No its fucking not.
5th gen are the newest systems you can call "retro" at this point. We are one generation away from the 6th gen being "retro". Maybe even two generations.
ZeRo:
"Let's be real here. Smash 4 was terribly ran at EVO. Worst tournament I've ever been to. Here's why. Please RT.
No projector for most of the smash 4 tournament. People crowding to watch anything.
Awful schedule. Matches being as early as 8 am, then having to play past midnight to then play at 8 am the next day.
At the end of day 1, evo, (not the smash TOs) decided to use HALF of the setups (32 of them) for friendlies while we were trying to finish before midnight. Evo literally enforced this. Nothing Smash TOs could do about it despite wanting to.
Evo randomly imposing only '32 moves' to fix their completely wrong brackets. (A bracket were ally wasn't even seeded...). They refused to communicate with the people making the brackets and limited their moves to fix the bracket and only allowed 32 people to be seeded. It's impossible to make a good bracket with this. It's evos fault for being so stingy for no reason that we had bad brackets.
Despite being the second biggest event at evo we had the worst schedule of any other game, no projector when other games had them, and weren't on the stage at all until late top 32. We were also pushed into the corner of the room and it kinda felt like a neglected event.
Some setups didn't even have all stages or rules.
I personally found some evo staff to be very rude and stingy for no real reason.
Bear tried his absolute best to run the event and without him.the event simply wouldn't have finished. We can't thank him enough. He did what he could with evos stupid decisions and conditions which made so many things much harder.
EVO apparently didn't even compensate travel costs for key members of staff and commentators. Also heard the compensation they got was way below standard."

We've gone off topic.
Carlos is a true American hero.
>>345427571
Yeah. I feel like the Alice and Clover shit in Another Time is hinting at it, but more likely it is hinting at whatever was initially planned which the transporter replaced.
>>345428060
My moves are complex
ITT: Oh, that game existedBonus point for actual good games
This game. I literally know through its cover art, nothing more. Not even thinking to try it once
>>345341664
It was quite good when it came out, same with it's sequel
This game right here. Blew Tomb Raider out of the water for me!
