is new vegas popular with the troons? i get twittards but troons specifically? Can't think of anything specific that would draw them in most of Nv is hostile to the wimmin and arcade is too far in for the disabled to reach.

Its mostly because of the autism to troon pipeline and people making up autistic headcanons about how Yes Man is an anarchist's paradise. Getting to murder hecking evil slaver chuds gets alot of people hard too

Although I do agree that Morrowind would've been a better candidate

Morrowind would need an actual remake

Good thing I have my physical discs and all my favorite mods backed up so if they ever decide to ruin Morrowind I can play it in the woods while I hide from the law after [fedpost redacted].

Offtopic.

This is your semi Frequent sperg post about pokemon fangames.

Reminder Pokecommunity and EeveeExpo (Formerly Relic Castle) are good sites to get this stuff.

Pokemon Pathways: Despite it's age HUGE letdown very much feels like a game that was in dev for like half a year despite a lot of content none of it is "finished" or more accurately none of it feels finished still decently fun to play good variety of Pokémon fair enough access to teambuilding tools

To be clear this game is a massive undertaking so it makes sense that it feels like it does but i can't give points for stuff that does not exist yet.

Pokemon Myth: I honestly want to call this game trash so many unfriendly features ontop of stuff that has to be intentional trolling on the devs part. one trainer has a aqua ring rain dish toxic stall team in perpetual weather and a pokemon has a death cry that lasts like 5 whole seconds where you just have to stare at nothing while you wait for it to finish like the hp bars of old also have fun using HM slaves except not because literally no pokemon (including 2 electric types) i had could learn flash whihc leads me to believe they intentionally removed hm's from a lot of learn lists

However is has good fakemon Mega pokemon and Infusions is a good mechanic (it's basically tera typing) regional variants are nice too.

Pokemon Awakening: this is a translation from Spanish and i dunno what yall are on over there but please PLEASE PLEASEEEEEEE stop adding fucking genshin gatcha to every game.

Other then that Decent enough game with no fakemon at all (well a powered up Eevee but who cares) terrible maps and a decent enough swing at being persona lite social links with pokemon gameplay ill probably end up finishing it or at least going as far as the (broken) Translation goes.

i do think it's the easiest of the games i mean there's fairly early access to a Cloyster for Skill Link shenanigans and the class system is very abusable especially because the AI is dumb as bricks and uses it too leading to exploits.

About 9 hours until Switch 2 pre-orders begin, get ready for the bloodbath and salt against scalpers in the morning.

To mitigate bots from doing the scalpers' work for them, I'm not posting any links, but the above information should be more than enough for anyone with two braincells to look up themselves! Best of luck to those on the frontlines, and to the overnight retailer camping for in-store orders!

If anyone's interested about the Marathon reboot gameplay, Doki just streamed her experience playing the Early Access Alpha Build. My opinion remains...unimpressed with what I've seen.

GOG sells it too

Anthem had a 7 "year" development cycle, but it was in such chaos that once the upper EA execs had to get involved and force Bioware to complete a game it became really an 18 month cycle. Actually a solid game for 18 months of production, frankly. I mention that because "Marathon" looks like about the same amount of actual work, where they ported over Destiny 2 and put a thin veneer of bright paint on what is functionally an extraction game mode for Destiny 2. It looks like a game that was completely rebooted 4 years ago without the staff to have vision for how to both establish within a niche and radically broaden the appeal of it.

It'll sell well enough to be Not-Concord 2.0, but it'll then die in 3 months.

I see Todd's finally moved on from Skyrim, he's now going to ask you to buy a new edition of the Oblivion remaster every year instead.

Hell yeah

(I still remember RE4 being the yearly game, Oblivion bros rise up)

Lanius > Caesar. Yes, I do want New Vegas to be the slave capital of the world. And Caesar's a coward with a tumor.

He was running out of superchat funds.

While there's a lesbian companion and a gay companion, it's not really the reason why it became a holy site for troons. It's as @Superduper Samurai put it, the autism to troon pipeline and FNV is catnip for autists. Same reason why there's so many troons among the Paradox games communities. The troons will cope about loving FNV because of bullshit like "anti-capitalism and you get to kill slavers!" but the truth is just that they're autistic.

Please remaster New Vegas so all the mod troons can finally stop getting as much clout for still circlejerking around working on the engine of a 14 year old game
Although Fallout 3 would be neat because it slowly gets more and more unplayable whenever windows updates, at the only real way to mod it to remaster it is TTW, which introduces alot of retarded balance changes

Just remake New Vegas with the gameplay of Fallout 4 (sprinting, dedicated grenade button, HUD overlay changes in 1st Person if you're wearing a helmet). Just maintain the dialogue screen like how there's mods for Fallout 4 where it shows exactly what you're going to say.

The optimist in me tells me this remaster is a testing ground of sorts. Success here possibly means Bethesda looks into those games as well as Fallouts from New Vegas and before. Although I do agree that Morrowind would've been a better candidate, but perhaps they couldn't have wrapped UE5 around those older games as well? I dunno tbh

I'm just hoping working on Oblivion reminded them of what made their games good. Starfield was such a colossal miss because it upended the entire foundation the Bethesda formula was built off of. Hopefully they refocused on that foundation for TES6 (I'm still worried its going to suck).
