Yeah, I mean I also read comics when I was a kid, mostly Astérix and Obélix as well as Spanish cartoons. But I was talking mostly about now, as I feel that the super hero comic books have lost their appeal

i never liked them a lot

so i dont know what to say

:/

the whole genre is not interesting to me

its like giving someone cheat codes to win

some of my friends liked them

they were more of SW fans

that was the big thing back then

Asterix and Obelix was the shit

god bless

Cursed Europe

How the fuck are the Balkans still Christian

what happened to swedehn why are they catholic

yeah wtf

why are they catholic

cursed

why the fuck is island ANGLICAN

why is there coptic in the mid east

coptic in the mideast isnt too farfetched

although it should be more around the mediterranean coast i guess

it should be in ethiopia and egypt

or gone

Looking a lot like the Europe in my current game. Only Reformed and Protestant now dominated almost all of Western Europe

in my games the ethiopians always get absoloutly butt raped by the mamluks

NICE

oops caps

Behold

who you playing as?

@galesteppes the Ottomans rarely convert the Balkans. They mostly go humanist and just go for religious tolerance

I kinda did the opposite as Russia, just went convert or die full religious ideas

Playing as Netherlands

warring with Castile atm for their colonies

It's so disgusting when Reformed spreads so much

I was expecting Protestant is to become dominant but Reformed's just like "Hold my beer"

It's the worst option, I don't see a reason to take it and don't understand the AI's reasoning for it

Like I'd rather stay catholic than choose Reformed

Yeah, at least with Catholic you can get some good bonuses from controlling the Pope.

You don't even need to control the papacy, Papal points can get you bonuses

That too

Reformed is trash

Protestant gang 4 life

HE'S BACK :DDDDDDD

What if there was a game that was about a black disabled veteran, a bisexual native american, and a autistic (doom slayer rip off + trever philips from gta 5 ) middle easterner , which was about them bringing back the white americans who fled the us to russia to conquer it and then take over the rest of the world and left it to the democrats ?

Hey, games are their to break the mainstream

Make a game about the most diverse cast, and make it pro trump

only console peasents who buy it only to play uncharted or red dead care about this

*Forza

Uncharted is dead

And FF7 as it stands is PS only

But seems they are finally making the jump from a hybrid hard drive to ssd

Also seems they are teaming with Microsoft to compete with the new stadia.

But the next gen ps will keep its disk drive, so physical media will stick around, and it will be backwards comparable with ps4

That's kinda neat

But I carry on Daring myself to get to get a pc instead

It's a more true backwards compatibility than Xbos had for the Xbox 1 for 360... xbox's was you put the 360 disk in and it downloads a digital version to play while the disk is in. This one will make the New PS think it's a ps4 and play it.

Straight from the disk

Sadly though they are integrating the VR. So useless hardware....along with "8k capabolity" that no media will use

But I would like it to be convinient enough to move up and down stairs like a console

I play PS, Switch and PC...tbh sometimes I just want to sit back and game, and cant be bothered to fuck with my PC. And dont dare bring it to the livingroom with my little ones

So I have been playing MTG arena today for the first time. It isnt horrible. And seem to have more chances to play more official type games without paying compared to the old MTG Online.

<:gay:382982146249326612>

I much prefer face to face MTG

Arena is shitty standard

Eh face to face is meh around here and tbh I havent played MTG since....the Greek set. And dont want to dump money on cards.

Theros

That was a good time to stop with standard

I don't need to dump to much money in eternal formats

Storm hasn't changed to much

@GeorgyBoyo bro you watch thenthapple too? epic

https://vid.pr0gramm.com/2019/07/22/13b21d968536c916.mp4

Man PUBG really blew it

I'm hoping the cycle is good

But I can try the new sets on Arena for free essentially so.

lmao PUBG

imagine if fortnite was on Steam, would have skyrocketed

no <:triggered:382980748115968000>

CS invented Steam and we didn't like it

it was turd for brains

If PUBG wasn't ran by retards it might have been able to actually compete

PUBG wasn't original

it was only original to 12 yos

jes

Apex legends is the best royale currently

And even that sucks ass

its all twitchs fault

How?

other than that the rise of high variance games is inexplicable

BR has become what the kardashians are on TV

Over used shite?

Fair

But I'm still hoping the cycle will be fun

it was alright

only played two weekends

and still no ads sensitivity slider

*vomits*

You couldn't ads either at first

But this is a game still in beta so

Um

They're not updating Apex as much as they should

How is that twitch's fault lol

@Den Röda Smurfen Yeah nigga I'd personally put his videos in the category of "porn"

lmao

I can watch them forever and never get bored

ive watched most of them more than once ya

Something about his not so serious editing/format and his voice/tone

Erlaxing

i was rather referring to the rise of br in general

Ah

as from an objective stance its rather an unfulfilling experience

so its more liek a trend out of control

one that makes lazy gamedesign possible

You mean subjective lol

no, i truly mean that

Why are so many people playing BR games then

@GeorgyBoyo i know another great channel with lets plays that are like that will link if u want

no BR will reach the levels of well crafted individual maps

several reasons, most people are normies, and because its trendy

and lack of alternatives

I just personally don't like the entire concept especially solo play it's pretty high stress and cool but still not my cup of tea.

me me want new bioshock in rapture

flying city gay

the biggest problem in BR is just that the high variance completely stunts the gameplay

Plenty of "hardcore" gamers play BR games

Not all of them are fortnite

That's what makes it fun

You can always get fucked by RNG

its fun when you flex on noobs

I don't think it's Esports ready

it aint fun when 10 squads are in zone 6 and nobody wants to make a move

Any BR game rn

That's a perfectly valid strategy even though it's boring

imo BR is just soemthing you add on top of a well crafted mp experience

its not a valid strategy it is a requirement

It's shit map/game design then but it still doesn't make BR as a whole to be unfulfilling

Do you think Minecraft is only for normies?

lets put it this way, BR is good if you are looking for soemthing casual, not so decent for everything else

As long as the game itself doesn't downgrade to appease the normies I really don't see a problem and even if it does it's the devs choice they lose their OG fans

what game are we talking about?

I love to watch BR games

Any game tbh

https://youtu.be/8C0uV_AYFhQ

again PUBG is my least fav BR

that comes to back to what i was saying before

Yet I love watching people play the game

fun to flex on noobs

not so much when everyone is around the same level

If there was genuine matchmaking wouldn't that only make the game better?

Why not

because it comes back to what i was saying before

high variance, and stunting gameplay

high variance will lead you to doing the same over and over and doing only whats best to reduce said variance

Maximizing your chances of getting good shit yes

And why the stunting gameplay?

Seems to me like I'd be stunting if you kept playing against noobs

because its essentially at a hold

But if you're actually play against good/players the same rank as you for the first time you gonna get your ass handed to you which would force you to git gud

some might call it "tactical"

I totally agree it's fucking boring but I mean it's how you win the game

The devs should make it more engaging

you cant really, these problems will exist

Okay then

its just inherent

Why would the playerbase ever stop being "tactical"

I understand

It's just how the game is best played

Can't fault the players for playing to win lol

obviously

It's the reason I don't play BR games I personally find it to be boring af at some stages in the game

Ofc varies from game to game

But some people do like BORING/tactical gameplay so

Would you also call Arma 3 boring?

no

It's just how you play the game

Why not

thats why i put tactical in quotes

You sit in a helicopter for 30 min just to get to a battle lol

I'd rather kms but I won't deny some people enjoy it

And good for them

It does NOT make the concept as a whole, BR for ex, objectively unfulfilling.

i dont think you quite understand it

its not the existence of pauses, its about why they are there and what they lead to

The players have figured out the system

And are having fun

It leads to fun for them

Lol

its like im talking to a wall

No you're pushing your subjective opinion as objective truth lol. Fulfillment is inherently subjective and super personal.

and i redacted it slightly

If a girl sucks dick down the street for a living and a guy discovers the cure to every cancer over his life which one would you call more fulfilling lol

Neither of them

I just dont quite get the "normie problem"

What's wrong with normies playing games

you didnt read anything have you

Real nigga devs will always make good shit and if some sellout to the boring normie crowd fuck em

There is an abundance of good games

not really, no

Alright what is your suggestion to fix the problem(s)

i already said it

I'm only seeing complains... Unless when you say "lazy game design"

I'm talking solutions

solutions to what exactly

High variance, stunting gameplay

i already mentioned that its inherent to the formula in comp

A formula that a lot of people seem to enjoy

in a market with a lack of alternatives

also "peer pressure"

nearly all comp players ik dislike BR

>as from an objective stance it's rather an unfulfilling experience

I'm merely saying it's a retarded statement

how often do you want to bring that up now?

Yeah cuz it's not Esports ready I agree

@Den Röda Smurfen fuck bio shock

Your getting a new system shock

id like that too

A sequel to prey would be good

but i will stand by that BR wont be able to craft experiences as good as dedicated smaller modes

with well crafted maps

Yes no shit

which is why i was saying before, that BR as a casual addition is fine

BR is used in comp play esports? I thought it wasnt balanced.

but thats the issue when it comes to fps currently

Unfortunately yes

and thats the whole point i was making

Apex definitely isn't but respawn are shite with balancing

the more you dive into it, the more burnt out you get

instead of beign rewarded

Real br chads play live fire in Tf2

Fite me

All of them are unbalanced. As it's based o how the game randomizes drops

and in the case of apex, ironically its small size makes the issues worse

You make long term big box in Esports it's the only sure way to sustain your game indefinitely and every mother fucker wants a piece of the pie regardless of how much their game is "Esports ready"

Make quake great again

Apex devs don't want to focus on the game

e.g. that was on the first day of the "pro" league

https://i.imgur.com/8oJ91UC.png

Apex was just a way to use the resources for tf3

Being to big just makes long range rifles more powerful

the small size makes it more likely that you get third partied

though it increases fun when slaying noobs or palying casually

so nobody wants to do anything

Apex is all about the rush tactic
