sad question posted:I like how GOG's community was in uproar about Hitman and its online stuff but seems to warmly welcome release of an anime rape game Wow, I regret reading that comment thread. Really regret it, enough to go make sure my game stores filter out anime, because that dgnfly guy should be judged, and judged hard.

GOG.com listing posted:This title features mature content that may not be suitable for all all audiences, including fictional depictions of graphic violence, polygamy, drug use, hypnotism, assault, and incest; both consensual and non-consensual graphic sexual scenes between adults featuring men and women, women with other women, multiple partners, machines, and fictional creatures.  Evenicle has been on Steam for over 3 years, same above disclaimer over there. From a Steam user review I found: quote:One of the core 'rules' of the world is that anyone who kills or has sex with more than one person gets a black ring on their finger and is branded an outlaw. As an outlaw you can't have children, you can't harvest or cook food, and anything you try to 'gather' will produce nothing. Naturally, outlaws make up the majority of the villain’s foot soldiers, but the world quickly shows the 'flaw' in this outlaw rule right at the start when an outlaw gang kidnaps a village girl, drugs and rapes her, forcing a black ring on her finger before Aster manages to save her. There's more that I won't quote... this game apparently has tons of rape scenes and other extremely brutal imagery. But wait, it's 35% off if you act right now!

Lol gog just sent me an email advertising their hentai offerings. quote:UNWIND AFTER A HARD DAY Ah, yes, just like Bioshag Trinity, this product is only for the most discerning of adult consumers. And yes the same email is advertising the amazing discount on the anime rape game mentioned in the posts above. You'd think they'd at least pretend to be ashamed of offering this stuff, Steam never shoves anime porn titles in my face when I boot up the service. Edit: nevermind, Steam just advertised a game named "Fetish Locator" to me. Did I end up on the world's shittiest mailing list this week?

Yeesh, seems like stuff that was normally relegated to the Adults section on newgrounds somehow convinced a large enough audience that their wank fuel was worth paying $20 for. Then again, I know a lot of artists that have not been shy to admit how much people offer for smut and pin-up commissions so I guess sex really does sell. Would be nice if rape wasn't so central

After owning it for over ten years, I'm finally playing Heroes of Might and Magic III, and I have a basic newbie question about the first campaign, or the game in general I suppose. When I'm playing a campaign, and I'm at the point where I can confidently win the map, should I put off winning to tediously minmax all my heroes first? Are the campaigns designed around bringing minmaxed heroes into the next map, or can I generally just play the thing "naturally?" In other words, do I generally need to pacify the entire map and tediously drag every hero to every +1 stat building to avoid getting destroyed on the next map? Or can I enjoy this thing?

Yeah for the first few campaigns (and I think most of the Erathia campaigns) you don't need to minmax to win. If you have the expansions, that's a different story

Hell, they might sell better on GOG, since it's a bit more anonymous then Steam is.

Well it was more a general statement since stuff like Hunie Pop exists, which is just Bejeweled with an excuse to have naked chicks in it. I didn't specifically mean that GOG suddenly had more H games than Steam did, more just that some of the things being talked about seem like some edgy, early 00s poo poo you would see in places like newgrounds. I dunno, maybe I don't watch enough anime and this type of stuff is still pretty normal within the community

I've won the Heroes 1-2 campaigns several times, but this crap, and the crushing difficulty for the later H3 campaigns, means I've never cleared more than a couple of those. But you generally only carry over your main hero, so you don't need to boost everyone unless the level states it's a thing.

I've beaten all the HoMM 3 campaigns on the hardest difficulties and I'm hardly a master strategist, but I also kind of enjoyed powering up the main heroes between each map, felt like I was getting one over on the game or something. But yeah, base RoE campaigns are pretty lenient outside of some difficulty spikes, I vaguely remember Dungeons and Devils' last map being pretty tough if you don't win it by baiting out the enemy hero out of the city you need to capture. It doesn't hurt building up your Mage Guilds to pick up spells before moving on at least, the good ones are real useful. And yeah, only main heroes carry over, no need to bother with the others. You can also check our very own Before I Play wiki for some other tips if you haven't.

HoMM2 is so much better than 3 for my money, not just with the campaign setup but I also love the artwork so much more with 2's more cartoony style versus 3's more realistic - which as we've learned from the 90's the more realistic attempts aged like milk. I'll still play both though, because there seems to be a more active player base for 3.

Thanks. I don't mind powering up heroes as a matter of exploring the map or basically conquering stuff, or in response to a unique threat (like breaking a siege or holding off an OP enemy or something), but as a required or expected grind for the next map I'm probably going to tap out: it's tedious not very challenging. At this early point, though, I'm enjoying the game as a sort of CRPG with a thin story and no dialog. It reminds me of a brightly designed Ravensburger board game or something.

III's graphics have grown on me, but I'll admit that I like II's look a lot better. Even if I don't end up playing it very much, I may just pick it up to experience it (it certainly goes on sale often enough). doctorfrog fucked around with this message at 19:32 on Oct 27, 2021 |

Sounds like the devs took their KS money and started a crypto-currency. I wouldn't be surprised about the assets, but I'd take complaints about not paying the voice cast with a grain of salt, unless it's coming directly from the cast. The game also apparently received a big update recently, so at the very least they're still developing stuff with some of that money.

Lucinice posted:GOG is currently giving away copies of the original Outcast game. How does it compare to the remake they did a few years back? “If you quickly glance at videos of the original Outcast, then look at the modern game, you may be surprised how much the controls and audio are so similar to the original. That's because, according to Sauer, it's a lot of the same old code, tech, and design under the game's hood. By using a Unity plugin to keep the old game running in the background, Sauer's colleagues were able to build new assets and a new UI that could be layered over the old game.” https://www.gamedeveloper.com/design/how-i-outcast-second-contact-i-was-revived-for-2017 So the main thing the remake has going for it apparently is the shiny coat of paint. Gameplay wise it perhaps hasn’t changed much? Negative user reviews (on Steam) make it sound like for everything the remake did add, something else was lost. I played the game back in the day and I’ll try the remake if I ever want to revisit it. If I never had played the game before I wouldn’t be sure which version to pick.
