Why do so many cross-over fighting games have such limited range from games franchises?
Instead of having 3-5 characters from the same IP, why not take a character from a different game/franchise instead?
Some examples of bad choices from rosters:
>MvC 3 : Viper (Seriously, who wanted her) and Trish instead of Asura (Asura's Wrath) and Monster Hunter
>Smash Bros: Robin and Corrin instead of Chibi Robo or Wonder Red
You get the idea. Why not make more fans happy instead of making the current fans happier? It's been proven that especially Smash Bros is a great way to expose new games to players

Some combination of Director desires and Corporate influence. Basically they compromise what the guy in charge wants versus what focus testing says is best for profits.
This generally means your favorite character gets shafted for flavor of the month shit regardless of how much people beg for them. See pic related.

Platcucks got Bayo. They don't deserve a second rep.
Also singling out Robin rather than Lucina and Roy, literally what?
>>385457165
I don't have anything against Ridley but how would he work in Smash?
>>385457289
Lucina and Roy are clones so they take way less time than a whole new character
Has a video game ever made you cry?
No.

gooooodbye hooooooooorses
When I was younger I cried after pester kept killing my cat who was named after my real cat in viva piƱata. I stopped playing but then when I came back a few years later he wasn't even sick anymore.
Here's a few pics of some WW1 weapons that feature in Battlefield 1.
It was awesome to see how much of this game is based in reality!
Here's the infamous Lewis Gun!
Remember to revive and heal your team mates for ultimate points
Here's the melee weapon exhibit! As you can see it's very extensive
I've been selling most of my old games because I don't really a lot of have time to play any more, plus I kinda need cash.
But I won't sell this one, because it has sentimental value to me. Plus it's great for casual gaming. Got this one out of my old house yesterday, got me a new memory card today, and it works great.
The thing is, I don't really feel like chip-modding it but I want to play free games in it (I know emulation of the GC is easy, but my PC is for work only and it's a bit old)
Could I get one of those memory cards with an SD port in 'em, plus an Action Replay DVD? Would that be enough to make it run ROMs? I seriously don't know, but I'm sure there are ways to run games from an SD card.
A little help?
I would reccomend that you just get a wii and mod that for your gamecube games. If your gamecube is sentimental to you the last thing you want is to wear it down im sure. I dont think the game cube had any software hacks either.
>>385455578
I just looked into it a bit and while there are ways to boot homebrew they are all a hassle to get going and maintain.
hacked wii
can play n64, snes, nes, gamecube and of course wii isos.
if you hack it correctly, you can even play all that shit from an external HDD.
Is there a bigger video game buzzword than "content"?
>>385455509
>buzzword
If any new game has less content than Baldur's Gate 2 it's beneath the notice of a true patrician such as myself.
>>385455509
that's even a buzzword in media now. "Content creators" has to be the most broad description I've ever seen. What the fuck is a content creator? It literally means the creation of ANYTHING so when I'm taking a shit am I now a content creator?
>>385455869
Content is contextual to what's containing it, so it depends on where you're taking your shit. If it's in the toilet, no, unless you're in the toilet business or hobby.
If you take your shit and go through the trouble of putting it in a game though, then yeah, technically you would be a "content creator." It's just the content you've created is literally shit.
With capeshit dominating the movies, why aren't there more superhero AAA games?
Injustice 2 is killing it right now.

MarvelCinematic Universevs Capcom

Courage is the magic that turnsTales threadsinto reality.
Does anyone got good thoughts about Luke?
>>385455259
No, not really.
>>385455259
I do. He's my 3rd favorite Tales protag.
Why did no one ever tell me how fun this game was?
everyone was too busy playing it
>>385454976
Try The Old Blood too, it's a lot better than New Order but they're both good games
>>385455113
Thanks, I will once I finish this one.
What was His problem?
Someone wore mixed fabrics
humanity fuckin sucks

ITT: Worst Monsterhunter thread
Snarf is a low tier monster but it's objectively one of the more fun fights
>baiting it with barrel bomb traps
>fishing it out of the sand
>bashing its giant face in with a hammer
10/10 would hunt again
>>385454901
>A worse monster doesn't exis-
Nibelsnarf is at least manageable without having to craft shit.
What other games do minimalist story telling well?
Dark Souls II.

Bioshock Infinite. That bell puzzle and the part where you choose the necklace really made me think...
Time for some OSTs? Post anything you consider good.
Starting with some yakuza

Grim Dawn's new expansion finally got it's name revealed, does anybody on /v/ still play Grim Dawn?
>>385454549
Played through the OC and then realized hack and slash ARPGs are boring as fuck. It was the best one since diablo 2 though.
Yes but I am holding off on playing again until it releases. DAIL brought me back for a while and was kinda fun.
>>385454549
just give me a release date fuck
Ok guys, what faction should I choose?
>>385454465
NCR is flawed but ultimately the best
>>385454465

>>385454465
House, MAYBE Legion
Definitely not NCR
Miiverse thread
>Are you gonna miss it?
>Will it have a successor in the Switch?
>Why were the rules so shit? No friend code exchange seriously? Friend codes were their idea to begin with
>30 posts a day limit to save money in server storage is also bullshit
>Will nintendo be great ever again, or will they continue with M-MUH THINK OF THE CHILDREN?
Try not to post the same 25 miiverse screenshots like you do in every thread.Seriously how the hell does a friend code impose a threat to a child? They don't even have a chat system, do they?
>>385454262
All I'm going to miss is stories like that 13 year old beta cuck who tried to get a gf on here
>>385454262
Miiverse is populated by 97% children. There are actual pedophiles who don't play video games but would use Miiverse to find targets. If you can share your username then they can also share video chat which exists on the wii u.
Nobody but children makes over 30 posts a day. I make 1 or 2 per week.
I will say that it was somewhat of a mess to find good posts about the game, but it was a decent place for strictly video game discussion that could also be used on your PC and phone. Damn shame itll be dead.
>>385454691
>There are actual pedophiles who don't play video games but would use Miiverse to find targets
>Console ban them AND call the authorities on them
>They need to get another Wii to continue doing shit, which won't be possible because Miiverse will be kill by the time they get out
Problem solved.
