I feel like at this point if you're gonna go the double av route it should be from a DS game and take into account the space.

are double avs done by just puting an [img] tag in the title text or do you need to bug a mod to do it

[img] doesn't work unless it's hosted by sa so you buy an av of the bottom, then buy another and add [img] of the first one in the title text

You could probably take advantage of the line break in long avs to make a really cool 3d effect if you wanted right? Not me. But like, someone talented could.

Saint Freak posted:You could probably take advantage of the line break in long avs to make a really cool 3d effect if you wanted right? Yeah using a line break as a fixed point in space as a frame of reference could help highlight the "3d" of an image. Although... for that to really work I think you have to be able to have things stick over the line break... so maybe not. I'm not an artist I dunno.

Zaphod42 posted:Friend, before Microsoft online services were free. Completely free. I'm not sure losing Microsoft is as bad as you think it would be. Microsoft got away with charging for Live because they were the big console of the two of them in that gen, and Sony now gets away with charging for their online because they are the big console of this gen. It's the same reason Sony says no to crossplay but MS is willing to do it. How anyone can look at competition and go "No, this is bad, I want to be forced to use one system and be enslaved to the whims of that console maker" is insane.

the answer is no consoles e: also doesn't that just means you're trading features vs wider dev support, esp since the market leader's stance just becomes normalized regardless of reversals

I was watching some videos on Bloodborne lore and is there any other game series where the placement of pickups is often used to tell the story?

glam rock hamhock posted:I was watching some videos on Bloodborne lore and is there any other game series where the placement of pickups is often used to tell the story? To the extent that From Software does it in Bloodborne/Dark Souls? Not that I know of. Its a very unconventional way of storytelling that encourages the player to pay attention to a lot of little details and piece together the story on their own. I think its an effective way of getting people to engage with the writing where they otherwise might not. People can enjoy a straightforward story when its told to them without really thinking about it. Enjoying the plot in Soulsborne games requires thought and effort, which encourages people to engage with the writing on a level they normally wouldn't. I mean a testament to its effectiveness is just how popular all those ~lore~ videos are. However those videos in a way have backfired and kept people from thinking about the game's writing on their own. The intent of Soulsborne storytelling is to get you to draw your own conclusions about the story but a lot of people don't do that and instead rely entirely on popular videos, and reject any ideas that aren't endorsed by some figurehead in the community. So in a way, those videos have stifled the amount of unique thought being put into the analysis of the writing. That's not the fault of either From or the people that make those videos, just how the community has evolved.  tldr: Soulsborne writing is really unique but also problematic due to how reliant people have become on those lore videos.EDIT: Hollow Knight has a lot of lore that is told indirectly in the style of Soulsborne but its not done through item descriptions since the game has relatively few collectibles. Its the same style of presenting a very fragmented story the player has to piece together through their own investigations though. Its very obvious where they got their inspiration from.

I watched Batman Ninja last night with the wife. The 3d animation was actually pretty good and the story was goofy in a a good way. It felt like it was trying really hard to be a Platinum game, but with bad one liners.

Sony wanted crossplay last gen and MS said no. It benefits the losing console more. If you could buy a 230 euro Xbone over a 300 euro PS4 slim and still play with your friends at Fortnite, that's a lost sale for Sony.

Like I remember dark dawn would get slower as you got more characters not because the battle system got more complex but because every one of those nine fuckers had to chime in on literally every line of dialogue of every one of the unending cutscenes Also how they only actually planned four characters, the Earth, fire, wind and second water adepts and the rest were just window dressing with no other importance to the plot
