So I'm making a game where your character's class and traits (good and bad) are determined via a lifepath, ala The Burning Wheel rpg.

Do you think this is too much?

>>172788115
I'm not familiar with that, how does it work exactly?
Also what would these traits do? Can the player get really bad ones?

>>172788470
Well I think what I want to do is to give the player a choice of a base starting class. The player then has the option to promote to an advanced class during character creation but at the risk of receiving a negative trait.

For example, a squire could promote to a knight at the start but he receives the maimed trait, presumably from fighting in a battle.

Announcing RPG MAKER MV 1IJ

1IJ is abbreviated for One-Eyed Jack, but since it's visual similar to 1リ, they're pronouncing it one-ri or "ornery"

In bizarre Japanese fashion, it continues the card naming scheme that started with VX "ACE"
This new edition fills in the gaps of the previous edition's RTP, extending the resource library with more Side-View content (hence the name "One-Eye Jack")

How do you feel about some party members having considerably simpler stories than others?

Say, there is a party of four. Three of the characters have family members, arch enemies, childhood flashbacks that explain their personalities, character arcs, origins that relate to the unique aspects of the setting, while the other character is just... there.

>>172811240
Is there a reason why he has a much simpler story?

>>172811240
Depends on the game. If you have a lot of characters it's expected that the main characters will take center stage while other characters won't be as fleshed out.

And if those characters with extensive backstories are ham-handed and annoying mary sues then a lot of the time I find my favorite characters is "random guy who doesn't say anything, and therefore doesn't say anything cringey".

Like in pretty much every JRPG ever.

>>172810731
>You're only allowed to have your head up your butt or squeeze in to someone else's.
By all rights, we should be hitting the bump limit every day. [/sarcasm]

>>172811723
what

>>172811240
simpler stories, sure, but do they interact a lot with the story? Do they care about the events that happen, or are they just fleshbag#4 used to fill out combat roles?

A character who spends more time interacting within the story is more interesting than someone who spent all that time doing it outside the story.

Oh, it is real alright.

I'm still stuck on direction-specific tiles (for things such as sloped roofs). And again, note that these are most likely not final graphics, just some I already had from previous project attempts.

I got tired of being a nodev so I decided to make an RTP-only game just to make it easier for the sake of actually finishing something.

Have any of you made RTP-only games of any significant length? Were you able to get anyone to play them?

I decided to make an FFL-style overworld sprite since I have zero experience in doing spritework. How bad did I fuck up and how rusty should my seppuku blade be?

Character is meant to be wearing a robe and a cape.

>>172850842
Loot. Money come from loot.
Equipments give nice boost for battle.

I also want to implement cooking to permanently increase stats.
But only for food your character haven't eaten.

>Running is a spell that has a very slow speed, meaning the enemies get free hits on you.

>>172851080
Looks fine from the front and back, but the side view needs its head repositioned. Nigga looks like he's comin' for that booty

>>172850203
only if the enemies give you something that is valuable other than experience that make the fights up to the boss easier.

>>172851237
Except against bosses, running is 100% guaranteed success.

>>172851394
Yeah, enemy drop loot for item crafting and cooking for permanent stat boost >>172851162

Monsters has high drop rate so you don't need to grind that much as well.
Some item are "steal only" as well.

>>172851589

>>172851589
>avoid grinding by locking levels
>enemies drop loot to craft items and cook for better items and stat boosts

so it is entirely combat and grinding focused? Running away doesn't benefit you at all and you have to grind to get the equipment needed to beat the bosses.

>>172852107
If the Iron Sword can only be equipped by one person, and the materials are only dropped by commonly-found Big-Dicked Orcs, it doesn't matter if you have one or one thousand iron swords, you can't equip all of them.

I'm not trying to be an asshole, but someone will probably say something similar when playing your game. Of course I have no context of the story, the setting, the characters, or anything else.

Also relax. If you can't handle any type of criticism, don't release your game because there will always be people who will say bad things about your game. Even the best games have critics. So calm your tits, man. Or do I have to limit my free speech to save the ever important feels?

>>172854601
It's fine. I appreciate the criticism.
Now that think about it. It force player to grind.
Maybe I'll take this >>172854330 suggestion instead.

>>172854601
You can criticize without strawmanning and making up scenarios that might not even happen you know.

>>172850203
>>172851162
Level locking is fine, level grinding is what makes RPGs so monotonous and/or trivial (yeah, we know "don't grind then :^)").

But with what you described you might as well remove levels altogether and have equipment/food be the main source of progression. Just have bosses drop an item that'll increase your stats by enough to give you a 'jump' in power.

No sense having levels if EXP doesn't exist.

>>172854997
>oh no he said something negative about a scenario that might not be true
What's the problem here? If it's not true, the OP can disregard the post. If it is true, or has the possibility of being true, the OP can take it into consideration in order to improve his game.

>>172854847
Well I'm glad you saw what I was getting at. I was only pushing so hard since you said you didn't want the grind but it seemed like it would be like that through the mechanics. I'm not against crafting or anything like that, just trying to help.

>>172855456
I think what he was trying to describe was anti-grind, though.

If fighting mobs only gives you materials for a certain weapon, once you get that weapon fighting them won't benefit you anymore. In a normal RPG you can keep grinding indefinitely for EXP until you can just brute force the next boss.

How to make poison state that damage 20% HP / turn on normal enemies and 4% HP/ turn on boss?

>>172856880
Make Poison skills inflict 2 states at once. Say, "Mook Poison" and "Boss Poison".

Make Mook Poison deal 16% per turn, and Boss Poison deal 4% per turn. Make bosses immune to Mook Poison.

>>172857168
Nice. Thank you anon.
I'm calling it Venom for 16% and Poison for 4%

>>172851080
This first one is the best. The neck bob is the FFL style to a T and the cape has the best shading.

I'll probably use both. The pictured character gets weaker and weaker as the game goes on (but paradoxially stronger because of how his skills work) but it's very difficult to depict this with such tiny sprites. I plan to simply go for GB-style sprites

I made an hour-long almost-all-RTP game for an indie game maker contest in 2015.

>>172865520

I was wondering why your game wasn't here with the rest of jam games, anon. I hope you will finish it!

anyone thought of making these RPGs with a unique elemental system?

such as tastes, Bitter, sweet, sour, salt

or seasons like, spring, summer, autumn, winter?

Bump?

How would you feel about a cosmetic ailment that can't be healed?

Say some enemies cast spells that turn you into a grill or boy. The ailment does nothing mechanically, but your sprite changes if you get hit.

>>172876815

My reaction would probably be "Oh, that's the creator's fetish, I guess."

so if I am ESL with a B2, what should I do:
>start writing your game in your native language, find a translator later
>make a game with minimal text
>just try your best in english, and hope it will be okay

>>172876815
Pretty sure I've played games where this happens, before. Roguelikes, mostly.

>>172877279
depends on the tone of the game. if it's fairly serious you'll want someone to proofread it.

if not, just doing your best is fine. for all its bullshit, english is actually a very forgiving language, you can fuck up a LOT and still get across the gist of what you're trying to say

>>172876815

It's a really cool idea, but what happens after it? Does it make the world react in some ways to the changed character? Some NPC's would probably be confused when they saw a girl, who was a guy a few moments before.

>>172877279

I'd do option 3. Hiring a translator is costly and it will take some time, before you will be able to release the game in english. Making a game with minimal text is a good idea, if you will be able to do it right. Creating a story without many words is a very hard task and even a little slip-up can lead to player's confusion(I had it a few times while playing Hyper Light Drifter and it's a game that do the story without words pretty well).

I think the option 3 would be the best, because even if you make mistakes - the beta-testers or players will likely find them for you and you will be able to correct them fast. Much more fast than translating the whole game from your native language to english, which is a hard task in itself and takes a lot of time.

>>172878220
>>172878267

>>172881260
>going to be an endless grind from hell
all there in the /ic/ sticky

>>172881260
It's an endless grind because you can always improve and you'll probably (unless you're a shit artist with a vanity complex) never be satisfied with your art because you know you could technically do better. And the aforementioned improvement is a slow, slow process that happens over the course of years. Even if you take a bunch of art courses or do tutorials, drawing is like 10% knowledge and 90% practice.

If you expect to pick up a tablet and instantly be half-decent that's just not realistic.

>>172882416

>>172882898

>>172882898
Of course, but you'll always have to fight the urge to go back and redo that vision in an infinite cycle of "I could do that better".

That's probably just me projecting, though.

>>172882898
Absolutely. Eventually you get to the point where what you make in an hour is better than what the old you could make in a week. The trick is to always work on something you actually want to exist. I've wasted so many hours my making x because "I'll learn something" or making y because "it's just something to pass some time". I regret that a lot.

Could have always asked another anon with Luna Engine to test your script.

Today I made another breakthrough with my game. Sadly that also means I'm scrapping a few areas and a couple of characters (stupid ambitions me trying to have a large playable cast, too much redundancy and/or useless characters) but i think its the right move

If you know your way around Gimp, It's a very good program for anything you need. I like Gimp, Just need to open the View tab and turn on Grid View and then open the Image tab and configure the grid to 1x1 pixel and you'll have your pixel art grid. Set the lines to a light grey and you're good to go.

In the Image tab you can also set the mode of the image to indexed so you can limit which colors the image is allowed to use

What is the difference between RPG Maker MV and VX?

And why is VX much hated? Isn't it the latest in the series?

>>172934662
MV is the hated one and the latest.
It's badly optimized and a lot VX Ace scripter move to MV so those who still use VX Ace are screeching.

>>172939741

It's just because of the switch to Javascript from Ruby. Better programming language in terms of writing and making scripts but also makes things run like turds in water. I've never played a game that involved Javascript that wasn't a pile of unoptimized shit. It's still a very good programming language that most people learn as the default in college.

>>172942791
>Better programming language in terms of writing and making scripts but also makes things run like turds in water
Why we haven't invented better programming for writing script but still make program run smoothly?
C++ is always smooth but annoying to learn.

So how do I make an event that branches depending on the lead party member?

>>172943192
If (partymember[lead].class/name/id==[thing])

Gimmicks, Mechanics, Limitations.

They need to all be situational, one comp should have an easier time vs boss A but struggle vs boss B, and vise versa with other comps.

Its not easy but its possible. You could look at a relatively balanced RPG like SD3, every character brings something unique to the table and while a few sub-classes are shit, the only one who was truly busted was Kevin, thanks to one small oversight on his werewolf form who can literally solo the game.

What I am saying is try to give everyone a niche and make sure there is more to the game then "damage and heal".

>>172954175
ok

>>172968895

It can possibly be done with states, All you need to find is a plugin that lets you apply states at certain health % which shouldn't be hard. I would look for you but i don't own VX Ace so I'd just be giving you a bunch of state related plugins i don't know anything about.

>Create a common event for each % health missing you want
>Have the events change your actor portrait
>Apply the common events to different States traits
>Use a plugin to trigger those states at the required HP%
>The state being activated will run your common event and change your actor portrait

In theory i believe that should work but i haven't tried it so it's possible there's issues with it. I'm going off my experience with MV here.

I can't seem to find any scripts that change poison damage to a set amount. Do any exist for VXA?

Would you prefer this leveling system?

https://youtu.be/w8XJ7Y3aZk0

You are taken to a different map depending on which character you pick. The map typically will represent the growth of the character as you progress. For example: Cleo starts off in the Farm House (comfortable yet boring ) and eventually ends up in a Vet Clinic (facing her fears).

You go around the map and buy upgrades, different paths are unlocked. You can go backwards so you aren't locked into a single lane. Every time you exit, your position is saved so you don't have to backtrack/waste time.


The other idea is basically a "Talent Tree". Kinda cute graphics but nothing amazing. This is far less unique but is more user-friendly perhaps.

From the perspective of "has actually worked with rpgm at some point", just walking your character up to a skill icon looks low-effort compared to making a fancy "proper" interface for it. Like I said though, I don't think that's going to be an issue for most players.

Someone please help me understand. How can people honestly have the will power and motivation to make art when they're sad? I don't get it.

All I feel is an unbearable pain in my chest and complete apathy for everything around me. I don't have a desire to get out my sadness into art or music or games. I just want to lay in my bed and stare at the ceiling. And maybe die, idk. I'm too cowardly to kill my self.

My point is, how do people do it? How do they turn sadness into art? Am I just broken? Can I not function like a normal person for some reason?

>>173004929

Back when I was suffering from depression, I forced myself to work on making things because focusing entirely on it distracted me from the pain.
It was exhausting and painful, because the brain was not designed to work 100% on things for months at a time, but it was better than curling up in bed and crying about how shitty things were.

I'm going make some assumptions here, but since you're airing your grievances here of all places I'm gonna assume you don't have any close friends.

Humans are social creatures, even if you succeed in making 10/10 masterpiece music and art you're still not gonna feel good about if you don't have anybody to share it with besides the internet. Focus on meeting people and the happiness you used to find in art will come back, trust me, I've been there.

here's what it is, faggot.

The problem is you. Yeah it sucks to hear it, but it's true. It's not your friend's, or your parent's or strangers' you don't know on the internet job to validate your existence and praise you until you think your live is worth living. It's just not. Even if you had new bitches on your dick every day, $20 million in the bank, and sold out concerts every other night, you'd still feel like shit.

Everything is in your head and you can't find satisfaction in anything because... well I don't fucking know. The first step towards fixing your head is to start appreciating WHAT YOU HAVE. Yeah you can fight me on this by saying "Well, Anon, I can't fucking write ANY music anymore, waaaaaaaaah". To which I'll say, "Oh man, that sucks. Kinda like it sucks that there are people who fucking kill each other so that they can eat out of the dumpster in a 3rd world shit-hole. And if they can't, they'll starve to death while their internal organs fail. It's sure sucks that can sit on your computer for hours upon hours in your comfy shelter while some guy has to sleep on concrete streets for probably years because nobody will ever give him anything more than $5 or a pair of socks or their uneaten leftovers from McDonald's. Yup. You have it bad."

>>173011905
continued

I don't mean to sound like an asshole, but finding appreciation in what you have is the most humbling, grounding think you can ever experience. It forces you to acknowledge that people have it worse than you and that your life IS NOT that bad. Like I wash dishes for a living and my hands get cuts, turn red, get painfully dry, and I usually never get a break to sit down or eat for hours upon hours. YET I still thank God(because I'm spiritual) for the opportunity to wash stupid ass dishes. I'm happy that I can support myself because there are millions of people who wish and wish to get a job so they can have money. I've known some of those people, man. They don't even want to be multi-millionaires or have fancy cars and shit. They just don't want to be so fucking poor that they can't afford food or pay their bills to even have a life that isn't miserable.

All I'm saying, even if you're atheist or whatever, just thank God or the Universe or whatever the RNG for this reality is, for the blessings that you have. Be thankful for the fact that you have the knowledge of music, the able body to create it, the access to a computer, the internet, have time to bullshit and play around, have a place to live and food to eat. It sounds like petty shit but there are billions of people that don't have even one of those things I just mentioned.

I think you're missing the point that he/she doesn't feel. Sounds like anhedonia to me.

And you sound like a judgmental christian that want to believe the important things in their life have universal value. "So blessed" and "God will provide" -- it must be hard to accept that there are people who are in-control of their life but don't care. They're telling you it's all meaningless, happyness is meaningless, but you can't accept that because it all you're living for. And deep inside there's a selfish and materialistic shadow saying
"I can feel good about myself knowing someone has it worst than me."

>anhedonia
I'm sure that really makes them feel better about their situation.
>lel you can't feel pleasure
>don't worry, just take pillz and you'll be gucci my man

Fuck that. I don't understand why feeling gratitude and appreciation is such a triggering suggestion. Just because I said God you get all upset? In that second paragraph I say that no matter what you believe you should still be able to feel happy for that fact that you have knowledge and get to do the things you do. I'm not SJW about it and making you acknowledge your "privilege". Quite the opposite actually, because that makes you feel guilty and ashamed.

Feeling gratitude is a pathway to feeling happiness. Even taking spirituality out of it, people feel gratitude for millions of things. It's about changing the core foundation of seeing life and your situation. If you feel grateful for the littlest, insignificant things then don't you think the big things, even if seemingly impossible or by random chance, have a greater impact?

Like think about any time that something has happened that left you feeling grateful. An act of kindness that was unexpected is so uplifting. It actually raises you out of the pain, worry, and numbness that clouded you before. Trust me, if you can find a way to create that feeling in your daily life, life radically changes.

I mentioned my job, saying it's not exactly the best but I still appreciate it because I was unemployed for a long time and it was making me worry and feel so bad about myself, not to mention being broke. But when that interview came and I got the job you bet your ass I thanked God everyday since then that I can wash dishes. They don't have to be religious about it, that's just my personal expression. Gratefulness is not bound by religion.

>>173022359
I wasn't trying to make them feel better.
I'm trying to make you feel terrible. Here you are preaching happiness is what makes life worth living. And you can't grasp at the concept that it might be physically impossible. You think you're dishing out soul food, but you're just rubbing their face in a pile of shit that's bound to push them over the edge faster.

Sure is RPG Maker in here.

>>173024642
>I wasn't trying to make them feel better.
>I'm trying to make you feel terrible

I feel bad for you, actually. I guess if arguing with me makes you feel better, go ahead.

>You think you're dishing out soul food, but you're just rubbing their face in a pile of shit that's bound to push them over the edge faster.

Well they came here for some reason didn't they? First it was asking about how to channel their bad situation and feelings into art, which they just couldn't do anymore. So my suggestion was not to use art, instead use an entirely different means: gratitude and appreciation. I have a feeling that they don't want to create art for the sake of art. They wan't to try to be a happier person.

This is an RPG Maker general, but for fucks sake, man, obviously the guy is reaching out for help. The least you could do is try to help instead of attempting to make me feel some kind of way.

Ancient Lich Awaken, ready to take over the world.
He commands various Demons and Undead to invade human settlements
Only to find out the invention of tanks, jet fighters, and guns throw that idea out of the window.

All of his great generals and useful minion are gone.
The only minions left are virgin Succubuses, lazy Dullahan, Vegan Vampire, and the shaky skeleton bones.
Basically he is left with useless minion.

But that wil not stop him from his ambition.
Learning from his mistake he assume human form and start invading human world secretly together with what's left of his army.

He won't stop until he take over world.

Tell me about your main character! How cool is he/she? What motivates him/her? What do they do by the end of the game, how do they grow?

>>173060746
I don't fucking know!

In my head i have 4 of the other 7 characters already made, but i can't think of ANYTHING for the MC. Motivations, looks, powers, etc. Nothing. Only thing i decided was that he's a retired knight.

But i can't think of anything else. I mean i'd at least want him to have a goddamn design.

>>173061365
Pull the ol' player self-insert MC then.

>>173060746
He just graduated from Magic School with above average scores.
As a noble, he will inherit his father's land and manage them.
Or at least that's the plan until "something happens".

I haven't decided what happens to him yet but basically he will be stripped of his nobility and become a farmer.

At first he do everything half-assed because "why the fuck I become a farmer" but then realized no one help him anymore other than his personal bodyguard/childhood friend and even then she is fed up with his lazy ass and start being strict on him.

Throughout the first part of the game, he realized he is a burden for everyone.
He start changing himself and mend his relationship with the villagers around.
Also realized he could get better score in the magic school if he actually tries.
He is intelligent, just lazy as hell.

Yeah, it's Rune Factory clone.
The gameplay consist of farming and fighting monster.

The MC can have harem.
He is also playful and flirty.

I think I already share this on this general back then but the MC doesn't have backstory.

I'm bored.

Play one of our games, then.

Why is there always one anon who does nothing except complain about how depressed he is?
Grow a spine or see a doctor.

>>173068912
... what?

>>173068983
It's fine to talk about being depressed
but NOT IN A FUCKING RPG MAKER GENERAL
holy shit

>>173060746
He's an aloof mercenary driven by money and a sense of adventure. By the end of the game, he realizes there are great powers at work that he must stop at all costs.

yeah /adv/ is that way >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

So, the following bit of script is crashing my game:

$bs_tileid = $game_map.data[$bs_scanx, $bs_scany, 2].to_s
if $bs_tileid >= 256
$bs_filename = "scene_"+$bs_tileid+"n_"+$bs_pictype+".png"
else
$bs_filename = "scene_"+$bs_tileid+"_"+$bs_pictype+".png"
end

The error it gives me reads:

comparison of String with 256 failed

So to my understanding, it can't compare the tile ID with 256 because it won't register it as an integer. I tried replacing .to_s with .to_i, but that doesn't do anything either. Any idea how I can have the tile ID (which is apparently a Fixnum?) be interpreted as an integer?

Working on battle sprites. Realized my BGs where too tightly cropped to fit four. But three might just be fine to avoid someone getting the role as the "buff caster".

>>173075895
I prefer three to four anyway.

>>173075895
That artstyle is awesome

>>173075895
looks good.

got a new microphone, audio interface and just switched to linux. What should i do with my new power?

Record shit? idk wakarimasen lol

>>173079161
Well that's what I want to do but there's already the /rpgmg/ podcast. I don't really want to compete with that.

>>173079641
Why not?

>>173079753
Well because I just started recording with them and I'm helping to edit the podcasts so they can maybe be made and posted more frequently

Why isn't your game a musical?

>>173082314
I'm the only person working on my game, soo there's that. And I don't think you have have a musical with only one person.

>>173082314
Because
Though I have had an idea on the backburner for a while because I have none of the necessary skills/money to make it happen
A rhythm based RPG that expands on stuff like Mother 3 and Theatrhythm

>>173082650
Use voice changers.

>>173082314

Because I can't compose music and my game's music is entirely from picking up other people's music.

>>173083570
There's a Theatrhythm plugin.

>>173083764
I'm looking to add more on top of that system, and at the moment I'm too stupid/inexperienced to try and change that around

>>173083620
Hmmm... possibilities.

I was tempted to make something with RPGM but decided it was too much of a hurdle for me.

I do other stuff like a webcomic. I have tried a bit of spritework but that was for a pokemon hack. I can never seem to get those right anyway.

I could never set on an idea for a rpgm project either.

I did consider making a fan project in rpgm once, thinking that basing it off something else would make it some what easier. maybe Doctor Who but I went off that franchise anyway.

The amount of posts that reek of underage lately are starting to worry me.

>>173082314
Because of Drakenguard.

>>173089398
Drakengard's OST is a masterpiece
It's just not fun listening to

>>173086796
I really was flirting with my coworker though

how do you come up with an idea for a project?

Today, I will remind them.

>>173093041
Sometimes I just get an idea out of nowhere

>>173093041

I have a folder filled with everything that seems cool and comes to mind, along with a shit-ton of .txts where I take different concepts and try to merge them together into a whole world, or a whole character, or a whole bit of gameplay, etc.
So when I need something, I have things on-hand.

>>173093041
I'm not going to lie, my sexual fantasies lead to the best plot related ideas and scenarios. Unfortunately there are still traces of them even if I've tried to cover it up. But you'd need refined taste to even pick up on it, everyone else is just going to see it as "he's appeasing the sjw".

Given enough time and development (about three years of world building and altering) it actually ended up the best setting ever. All that's left is to make it happen while I work the kinks out of the next one.

>>173041576
>>173045515
I think these two ideas combine quite nicely.

Nailed it. Drakengard 1's OST perfectly captures this descent into violent madness. I don't know another way of describing it. I listened to it on loop for 18+ hours, and there's just something to it that goes beyond noises and starts to turn thoughts and emotion.

Not saying the music will make you a psychopath or something, but it successfully accomplishes an emotional response. Beyond doubt, it is a masterpiece. And beyond doubt, it is an ugly, unenjoyable thing to listen to.

Anyone got that collage of RPG menu screens image handy?

>>173093041
In my dreams.

I'll bump the thread with a question:
what was your first attempt at making an RPG, and do you still have the files?

Maaaaaan, this shits hard, yo.

I'm the guy doing a real-time action game, and while I can do everything including projectiles individually, it's damned difficult to make a whole interchangeable system with other projectile spells or multiple projectiles on screen. I know everything I need to do, but it's becoming an organizational nightmare.

This was the first boss, CasualFilter who will stunlock you for eternity. He appears out of nowhere by the way.

I regret making this game... and its squeals...

Why MV fucking overheat my high spec laptop?
Not even Witcher can heat my laptop like this.

>>173110423
get Linux, my dude

It runs sooo fuckin' sweet

So is the collab dead again?

>>173110652
I don't think so. But the guy who was working on it was trying to do a bunch of shit puzzles and make it all psychological or something. Maybe he'll chime in to defend his procrastination

>>173110423
>sprite based game
>overheat laptop more than HD games
I'm calling bullshit.

>>173110423

Because it's a CPU intensive program if you use a lot of parallel processes.

>>173110767
That's not how these things work, anon.

>>173110537
>get Linux
Then get wine just to play some shit? No thanks.
I know Linux is the best OS when it come to performance and it does what you tell it to do unlike Windows but I don't want all that trouble just to play some games.
