Quest For Glory II posted:I guess it really comes down to the fact that a few goons bookmarked the old Steam thread and constantly checked it for keys. That's pretty funny. It won't last though, eventually they'll all bookmark this one. Maybe it's an argument for making new Steam threads every month or season though. They do that in DnD with politics threads. Maybe it is a good idea.

Quest For Glory II posted:No game did the "moral choice" worse than Bioshock. You can save the little sisters and still become a demigod, or you can OBLITERATE THEM YAAAARRRRRGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHH *SCREAAAM* They were going for long-term rewards versus short-term power but yeah that falls flat on its face when the long-term rewards are hugely superior to the short-term while also requiring only a minimal short-term sacrifice.

lordfrikk posted:Nobody mentioned the recent South Park: The Stick of Truth game by Obsidian during the bug discussion! Not sure what the general response was but I'm happy to report no bugs were encountered when playing this disgusting game! I think it was fairly well received. All the YouTube LPers I can stand to watch have some videos of it, but of course that could easily mean gently caress-all.

King Vidiot posted:Also there was that mod I discovered recently where you can save and import characters as NPCs across save files, which gave me incentive to create new characters so that I can have a dream team of overpowered Murdahkiin. Fair warning: imported characters don't keep modded spells. Most of them are designed to be used by the player and only the player, and keeping them on the PC when converted to an NPC caused lots of problems, so the mod maker disabled it. You could add the spells with the console, I guess, if you're not worried about breaking stuff.

A bit disappointed I still can't catch rabbits for my rabbit cages, but clearly the dev's priorities are in exactly the right place: I was going to try to justify this and then my sunk-cost self check went off. The Forest is quite fun and I already feel it was worth the money.

The issue is NOT " I dun wanna pay for mods". None of us would have a problem paying for mods if they were worth it. The issue is: a) Valve and Bethesda take a 75% cut b) the modder gets nothing until they earn $100 c) if the mod earns less than $400 the modder therefore gets precisely jack poo poo d) the 24-hour refund period isn't long enough to thoroughly test a mod to make sure it works and is good e) refunds are only to your Steam wallet even if you didn't pay from there f) there are so many mod codependencies that the legal issues are myriad, labyrinthine, and probably beyond fixing g) Valve gives a poo poo about none of the above. The whole thing is sketchy and poorly thought out and pretends to be paying modders when the vast majority won't see a single red cent from the Workshop.

Lucid Dream posted:The share the modder gets is (as far as I understand) defined by the publisher, not Valve. Valve gets their cut regardless of course, but it isn't the fault of the system that the modders get 25%. 25% is still better than 0% from the mod creator's standpoint. The modder is getting 0%. With the near-universal backlash, the age of the game, and the $400 provision I'm willing to bet not a single modder will get anything out of this.

Lucid Dream posted:I disagree, but its kinda moot because this isn't a system put in place entirely for Skyrim, this is a feature that any game on Steam can take advantage of. The Nexus has a donate button on mod pages. 100% of donations go to the modder. You want your modders to get paid? That's how it should be done. Not this plastic-carrot bullshit.

Lucid Dream posted:This is entirely anecdotal, but in my experience virtually nobody actually uses those donation buttons. I ran a reasonably popular Minecraft server with significant custom server mods for a few years, and at first I had a donation button and I never got a single donation. As soon as I put in a subscriber feature that offered fair benefits (larger bank storage, priority server access, etc) I made enough to pay for the costs associated with running the server as well as a little extra. I think you are overestimating the amount of people that are willing to completely selflessly donate on the internet. I... honestly can't argue with that. Unfortunately there's no middle ground akin to what you're talking about for modding and Valve's system is very probably not going to work. I'm not sure what the right answer is, but I AM sure this isn't it.

FirstAidKite posted:Some people like doing new game +. Chrono Trigger did it well, so do the souls games. FF4DS' new game plus, I forget what all transferred over but I know that the augments did which meant you could give augments to different characters during the ng+ cycle that you didn't give said augments to during first cycle. I'm guessing the reason for only 3 cycles is that by that point you'd end up (if you played with the augments correctly) a bunch of people on your team with overpowered skills. Also I think maybe the game got harder on new cycles?? I dunno about that for sure, tho I do know there was an optional boss that could only be fought on ng+ cycles and was the hardest boss in the game I think Borderlands does it pretty well. Also for all the flaws Golden Sun had, the second game let you do a NG+ that was either easier or harder depending on what you wanted which I thought was p cool.
