I thought this fansong was pretty good, even though the text is kind of weird.

>I cannot stop thinking about the soundtrack. The music is so intentionally ugly that it becomes memorable. The sounds are aggressive and jarring, but there’s thought put into how aggressive and jarring it needs to be. It reflects what the game has to say about toxic masculine behaviors, and their inherent roots in male insecurity. These kinds of soundtrack metaphors are so god-damn resonant that it leaves me inspired to action.

>#this is the primary takeaway of lisa the painful:#real actual self awareness is the only way to bridge the gap between the percieved self and the actual self#and that self awareness usually comes through humility and self care#two things that ever character in lisa LACKS IN DROVES

I'm not exactly sure what "toxic masculinity" actually is, but I guess a game where almost every male character is an idiotic thug or a potential rapist would appeal to someone who uses that type of language.

>Edmund made fat bombs and butter trinket
>They have the worst sprites of all the items added
Why

>>171917052
>toxic masculinity
Feminist term basically saying "the negative aspects of masculinity". What exactly is negative is left up to the imagination.

Relatively moderately: violence, machismo, aggression in speech

In the deep end: everything (including holding doors for women)

>>171917052
>I'm not exactly sure what "toxic masculinity" actually is

the bad parts of common masculinity, it's a complicated term and its better to provide examples than to list terminology.

>>171914970
it was a different time

>>171917052
>I'm not exactly sure what "toxic masculinity" actually is
Imagine a stereotypical dudebro frat guy and that's about your baseline, if you even go for this kind of concept in any case

>>171914970
I really wish it wasn't a thing (not refercing indie games, but referencing specific games like original HiB ones), it puts indie marketing pioneers on a somewhat undeserved pedestal
Though Dust is forgiven for being relatively old game, and not many games do this today anyway

>>171919860
Back then the indie genre was still in that transition phase between being relatively small-time and being the bigger bloated market it is now, so while Braid and Meat Boy and all that were huge and doing well, the scene was still "small" and thus more close-knit. It's natural in a smaller sort of "community" that collabs and references between different creators happen, thus stuff like that in Dust or other games.

It still happens now and then today with stuff like Shovel Knight, but in general it's become its own actual industry rather than a community, so you either don't or can't get the same kind of stuff put in games.

>>171920350
>It's natural in a smaller sort of "community" that collabs and references between different creators happen, thus stuff like that in Dust or other games.
So with which developers of referenced games did Dust developer collaborate or even interact? I'm pretty sure those are just tributes and not a result of "community" being "close-knit"

>>171921631
I'm sure he at least got their permission to include their likenesses. Characters from a whole bunch of different games isn't exactly something you can just throw into a game you sell without permission.

>>171921880
Asking for permission to reference some other game doesn't mean being in same circle with the author of said game

Also
>Characters from a whole bunch of different games isn't exactly something you can just throw into a game you sell without permission
IANAL, but this probably falls under fair use

>want to replay underrail
>expansion soon
>don't want to get burned out of the game

I've figured out how they make 90% of the Isaac dailies.
They choose a random character, then just hit reset until they get a vaguely interesting run.

>>171928334
Are you sure it's hand curated it all? It'd be trivial to create a seed based on the current date.

>>171929379
Some of them start you with an item, and the ones that don't (like today's, where you get a couple of bomb things and Pyromaniac) often have a simple theme.
Plus they have to decide where the run ends anyway, to avoid shit runs that require killing Megastan or something.

>>171929379
>intentionally making starting floors with zero bombs and multiple tinted rocks

I don't want to believe.

>>171914970
Dust is not exactly indie with MS as publisher. Still close enough and a good game.

>>171930438
There are indie games with big publishers, because they got noticed before releasing, but still kept their small operations for the actual dev process.

I personally would still call that indie...

>>171917052
>that music
Only vaguely like LISA/10

>>171930518
Hm that is an interesting approach. By the classic definition being independant is all about being selfpublished versus having a publisher.
I agree that this is a grey area when the development is barely touched.

>>171930438
Dust was originally going to be released on the 360's channel specifically for indie games, but it won a contest in 2009 and got the right to be published on Live Arcade via MS. The guy also self-published it on the PS4. So Dust isn't really a game with a publisher so much as a distributor on certain platforms and only because it won an award.

>>171917109
You mean fast bombs?
And because Edmund is a hack. The literal only game he's put out for years now is Isaac. He has no idea what it takes to make a good game and would rather just fuck with everyone than do anything good.

>>171931526
It is published by ms studios on most systems.

>>171924835
>what do i do?
Wait. And pray that the expansion comes out this year.

>also, what's the dealio with the two headed mutie anyway?
It's a coming of age ritual. When someone aspiring to be a scavenger becomes old enough, their station will send them out to hunt the mythical mutant with two heads. Upon completing this spiritual journey, they are welcomed back into their community as adults.

This tradition is generally frowned upon in the North, where sending potentially productive young members of society on a "fool's errand" is considered "barbaric" and "utterly derailed".

>>171930438

>tfw you want to play a title but it's Early Access

Turn based, low-fantasy, challenging. Can't wait.

>>171931190
The key is not publishing itself but who's financing the project and thus calling the shots. As long as the creative control and the intellectual property is still in the hands of the original developer, I'd say it's perfectly reasonable to call it indie.

I make a game based on famous Russian urban legend about teen suicide. Check it out on greenlight:

After returning from school, 12-year old Midori Popova receives a message on the social network from a stranger. He invites her to play the "Blue Whale", a deadly game, at the end of which Midori should become a whale...
On 10 February 10, 2017, 400 blue whales were thrown ashore in New Zealand. Most of them died.
Annually about 800000 people commit suicide. Most of them are teenagers.
It's enough to use this hashtag and you have already participated in a suicidal game, a terrible quest on the internet, because of which hundreds of teenagers all over the world end with themselves.
But what is the "Blue Whale"? A death trap? City legend? Or just a child's play?
Immerse yourself in the heart of the teenage girl's story, go through with her the trials of a stranger, find yourself in nightmares, uncover the secrets of the Quiet House.

BlueWhale - 2d-horror adventure
-exciting plot
-existential atmosphere
- surreal dreams
- topic of teenage suicide
- collectible cards

Balance seems kind of bad at first but I didn't really look around much. Seems to be based more off of Kittens than Civ, and with it has the same problem Kittens has with "well this is fucking useless I just wasted all my resources", but with the addition of from-the-start decreasing happiness and health.

Plus food rots, so it's even worse.

It is excellent for its time and holds up. It is the only zelda game before botw that was actually open world but with that combined with NES era comes some design flaws that don't hold up. It's still fun but I personally used a guide to see the next dungeon and get an idea of the dungeon layouts for my first playthrough.
Surprisingly, Zelda 2 holds up much better these days. Yes it is hard but nothing you are required a guide for.
Still hoping there will be a new zelda with heavier rpg elements zelda 2 had.

Holy shit those nerves of steel and that dig buffer game. Sure he freeze spelled most of the bosses but it's hard not to be impressed by those plays.

>>171986023
Ive never gotten around to Ittle Dew and Alundra looks neat. Yet I see that question was too vague, it shouldve been more specific about which Zelda formula as the original game and the later games have very different formulas.

If Dark Souls fits into any of those I couldnt say because I cant describe the formulas that well enough myself and I see Zelda in a lot of games like Resident Evil 4 and Soul Reaver. I equally see Metroid in those titles too. At a certain point some concepts are just too abstract and universal.

>>171987752
Yes the basic zelda formular is best summed up with action adventure.
You have combat but also puzzle solving and exploring. Dark Souls has the exploring and combat but lacks puzzles for example.The genre of metroidvania fits very well into zelda too. The only things that could differate it from the zelda formular is an excessive focus on backtracking with new abilities, 2d before metroid prime and mostly lack of of npc villages.

A version of PowerslaveEX is floating around, I've got it.

>>171994709
It's not an easy game, but I wouldn't say it's significantly harder for a cRPG newbie to get into it. Not that many cRPGs even have elaborate character building like Underrail, nor do they involve genuine stealth gameplay, and so on.

So nah, I wouldn't worry. If you have any experience with TB strategy games or stealth games you should be able to manage.

>>171994709
I found it more accessible than Fallout. You can't get too lost early on, the interface is intuitive, and you aren't hit with massive walls of text or purple prose.

You will want note pad open to take note of quest objectives and details since your journal isn't useful. Also make note of points of interest and their central location.
Also increase game speed in the options cause walking and combat animations are slow.

You don't have to do the last few things but you might wander around for a bit if your memory isn't that good.

I want to like Pillars of Eternity, but I just can't enjoy the weird ass real-time combat, even if pause after every action. Is there a game similar to it, but with turn-based combat more like a tabletop game?

>>171941051
Apparently using Blank Card + Jera on the Chest will start giving you Breakfast now.

>>172010106
Switch off auto-pause [in combat] and try to focus on your char's attack cooldown (if I recall correctly it's displayed with red dots) yourself, so you can pause and issue actions efficiently without crushing the combat's flow so badly.

As for alternatives, PoE is pretty generic fantasy so any good turn-based RPG would do it. If I were you I'd play either classics (like Black Isle titles) or combat-oriented, tactical titles (Banner Saga, Hard West, Battle Brothers etc.)

Has anybody played Rivals of Aether? It looks cool, about to go out of Early Access this Tuesday.

It seems to have a fairly small playerbase though, and not that many characters available either, so I'm unsure whether I'd regret it. A PC kinda-smash game would be fun to have, but if it's dead on arrival then it wouldn't really be worth it.

Help. I know Brawlhalla exists, but it is super floaty and just feels terrible to play.

Any good mods for BOI you guys would recommend?

>>172044532
IWBTG fits perfect actually. I also saw the term 'twitch plattformers'.
Not sure if that refers to the streaming plattform or the reflexes needed.

>>172045330
It has no block and grabs just like Brawlhalla. It has a few players and side tourneys but nothing big.

>>172050102
That's fine with me aslong as it doesn't feel as floaty and slow as Brawlhalla.

I'm mostly afraid of not finding players within a reasonable ping, though. Do you happen to know whether it has enough players to... well, play, in Europe?

>>172050897
It probably has since pc is usually bigger for eu. For a fighting game this niche I would recommend joining a discord to interact with the community and matchmake.

Antibirth-bros, how do I into Jacob and Esau?

>>172055350
Get a comically broken run and remember:
>Put your main damaging shit on Jacob
>Put supporting items (and Babies) on Esau
>Put both key parts on the same one, either/or
>Remember that you can grab both pedestals if there's 2 available
>Control lets you move just Jacob

>>172055634
But wait, wouldn't it make more sense to put all of the offensive shit on Esau and all of the defensive shit on Jacob, because Jacob usually leads?

>>172055634
>both
All 3 knife parts*
And also skip Devil Room items unless it's actually really good, cause Antibirth Angel Rooms are usually good.

>>172055765
No because ideally you want Esau to have something like Tiny Planet + Lost Contact. Cause you can't move him individually, so he blocks everything while you reposition Jacob so he doesn't die and can still DPS.

>>172055906
alright, makes sense. So I should be focusing on Jacob first and foremost and really just not let Esau get hit?

>>172056029
More or less, yeah. Basement 1, absolutely ensure Esau takes as little as possible. That 1 Soul Heart is invaluable to ensure Devil Deals Basement 2/Downpour 1.

>>172056123
Yeah, that's usually the plan. Basement 2 isn't that hard to land a deal, but Downpour has a shit ton of RNG in it's firing patterns so a lot of it is luck of the draw. Circle flies/sentinel flies/whatever you want to call them also make things a pain in the ass.

>>172055350
I need to start playing antibirth again. Who thinks it is better than the official content released with Afterbirth+? I feel like they should do one more, proper expansion.

>>172056510
Yes. Anti is still better than AB+.

>>172056510
It's way better than Afterbirth+ and arguably Afterbirth period.

I'm waiting for a mod that ports over the few QoL changes from Plus, (reworked Boss Rush, reworked Deals) as well as the new characters and a few items. And... that's really it. Bosses can stay, I guess, but shit like Hush can go die in a fire, same with the Void and it's teleport instagib bullshit.

Although I am sucking it's dick pretty hard right now, the one complaint I have with Anti is the lack of synergies. On the plus side, the synergies you can actually get are A++. Tammy + Sword + Menorah can give you seven charged sword swings and is basically a won run.

>>172056815
I really hate some of the new bosses in AB+ and yeah the Void is just shitty in general. If I had more time and I knew people would play it I would create a massive mod for Isaac that would almost feel like the Isaac 3 or something. I have a ton of ideas and even a continuation to the storyline. Too bad I am a wageslave.

>>172056815
Menorah, Sword, and 20/20 can give you up to 14 Swords.
Cause Menorah is a multiplier.

I'm gonna say no, not at that price. I don't think it's grossly overpriced, just RATHER overpriced.

>>172063521
It's like you are actually retarded and suck mainstream cock.

>>172063572
Alright. Name more than four games that were delayed that ended up being good.

>>172063313
Agreed. I honestly do believe that if they do this right they might turn Underrail into a "greatest RPG of all time" contender.

>>172063521
Underrail was delayed by 4 years, and it was for the best.

>>172062938
Seeing devs be total shitheads makes you appreciate the friendly and amiable ones all the more

>>172064015
Did not know about Underrail.

Post indie hips.

Fooking a, I just spent three hours trying to kill the Witness as Bethany and the moment I do it I remember that the reward is bugged atm.

How do I into Dungeon of the Endless? I like the idea, and I've tried it a few times but it seems like it goes pretty easy until suddenly I 100 -> 0 super quick.

Why are they so fat?

>>172042756
Ipecac and the wonders of the portable blood bank are probably my two favorite things to fuckle with in that game. Shame it keeps getting worse.

I am playing Momodora 3

>>172077591
Good game. Did you play 1 and 2 yet?

>>172077646
I played them but didn't beat them. Don't remember how far I got in either

>>172078272
2, 3, and 4 are the ones worth playing and beating. No need to bother with 1. Even the creator wants to disown it.

>>172078787
1 is good but fuck it is impossible to get all collectables.

Anyone ever experience a glitch where stardew valley just doesn't start up?
I've look online but I can't seem to find a fix that works.

>publishing deal
Not indie

>>172079462
If it was originally developed without a publisher or they didn't have one through most of development, I'd consider it indie. Not that I'm defending this dude

Yume 2kki question. Anything I can do here? Other than use the child effect to go into the sand castle.

>>172079303
Tried compatibility mode? Verified the steam cache?

>>172079880
the wiki has information on what you can do in each area
I don't remember where that is though

>>172080410
The wiki is out of date on some things, so I'm just making sure.

It's part of the mirror room event. Sometimes you end up in a mirror version of Urotsuki's room, either by entering her dream room from the balcony, or leaving her dream room out onto the balcony, it's not clear which, and interacting with the t.v. a bunch of times will send you there.

>>172080236
Yes to both, even a complete reinstall doesn't fix it, most people on the forums fixed it by reinstalling the XNA framework but that didn't work either.

I am sure I saw an anime/cartoon about rabbits at a river that was mega violent.

>>172081725
Just play his "other" game demo: Bunny Swordmaster Story. (He's not going to make more of it)

Ugh, what's the appeal of these games? I've played third one and found it extremely dull.
