Would a fighting game using game-developers as characters work?
I'm sure someone has had this idea in the past, but it just occurred to me. Sounds crazy fun.
Roster ideas? Special attacks? Cameos by characters from video games designed by the fighters?
Would there be copyright issues? Is Gaben trademarked as a person?

Sit by my side, child, and listen to a story of old.
Gabe Newell, the famous businessman and CEO, was once... a video game developer.

It's been proven time and time again that a fighting game about anything works. See Aquapazza.

How does /v/ feel about "lose harder" mechanics, and what are some games that do it especially wrong or right in your opinion?
To explain, lose harder mechanics are things that ensure a losing player will keep losing. For example, in the game Transistor you get to re-try a fight after losing, but this costs you one of your skills. Which means not only are you fighting a battle that's hard enough to lose the first time, but you're also going into it with a pretty harsh penalty, making it more likely that you'll lose again. This is also a common thing in MOBAs, since a team that's losing early on will often get less resources (gold, experience, etc) which puts them in a worse spot for the rest of the game, sometimes to the point where an early loss means you might as well give up.
There are also less obvious examples. For example, if you're low on health in a fighting game this usually doesn't affect your character, but it still means you can't keep playing the same way you would if you were at high health, because getting punished on a risky move will mean you instantly lose and sometimes you can't even block because the chip damage might kill you.
And then there are games that try to reverse this by giving a losing player certain advantages. Think of racing games that slow the opponents down when you're behind and speed them up when you're ahead, to make it so you're never entirely sure if you'll win or lose. Or games like Bioshock that make you take less damage when you're at low health and deal more damage when you're almost out of ammo, to give you a better chance to just barely win a fight you otherwise would've lost.

as a rule, eveything ASSFAGGOTS do is bad and retarded, and so is your mechanic of lulz harder
>>
They aren't necessarily wrong or bad. They're just the rules of the game and you have to play by them. As long as everyone is playing by the same rules, it's fair.

>Lose harder
It's called the slippery slope effect, no need to make new terms up
It's not actually detrimental to games or competition. Many highly regarded games have such mechanics built into the design, such as Chess (i.e. first to give up an important piece has to deal with inferior options for the rest of the game on account of the initial error)
In a MMA fight, whoever gets that initial advantage (i.e. initial strikes, good position, a takedown, etc.) is technically ahead, but it is far from assured

Any speedrunners on /v/? Tell me about yourself. How did you get started? How do you pick your games? How do you plan your first route? How often do you run? Do you still play games casually or do you just speedrun?

second half of the game is probably one of the worst things in the whole series

>>389871746
It has a little something for everyone.
Leon is more survival horror.
Chris is a lot more action based.
Jake is action too.
Ada is ninja mode and sexy.
7/10 game

A huge downgrade from RE5.
>Melee is clunky, controls are worse and only faster
>Inventory system is worse
>Weapon upgrading is worse and limited
>No cool treasure system
>Riddled with instant kill QTEs literally every minute
>Enemies are unrealistic bullet sponges unlike in RE5
Only thing it had going for it is were the characters and settings being more traditional RE than 5.
