Head over to /vg/
So, it seems like /vg/ is picking up significant traction. While it saddens me to simply abandon /games/, in the interest of not dividing a userbase in need of a /v/ alternative, I encourage all posters here to go to /vg/. Ultimately, the important thing is that we have a video games board not run by a sperg.
Rules and Guidelines
0. Follow the Global Rules, use the global report function for reporting illegal content/global rule violations
1. Obvious shit: High-quality posts and OC are welcome, check the catalog to make sure you don't make redundant threads, derailing and impersonating a board volunteer/mod/janitor/owner is a bannable offense, heavier shitposting is counted as derailing and therefore bannable
2. If you have a question or comment about the board, 8chan, or just want to engage in some offtopic shitposting, head over to the meta thread, otherwise stay on topic, that being tabletop and vidya (including VNs), be it their crunch/gameplay or fluff/lore
3. Saging is for a quick off-topic post, hopefully to stop further derailing, or posting in a shit threads you don't want to bump (remember if you personally dislike the thread, the hide function exists for a reason), and is mandatory for CYOA/Quest thread posts not from OP
4. You may post spoilered porn but no porndumps, and while you don't have to be 100% vanilla, particularly with writefaggotry (see rule #5), don't post /d/egenerate fetishes like scat, guro, vore, NTR, etc.
5. If something in a story you're doing involves one of those fetishes and makes sense in context (i.e. kingdom in turmoil because queen had an affair with a knight) that's fine, but when you stuff that shit in because you expect people to find it sexy, you'll have anons rip you apart and a ban
6. Anthropomorphic races and characters from vidya and tabletop are of course allowed, but posting furry fap material will get you banned
7. No cuckchan /v/ tier threads (You know them, now that the dust has settled, can x ever compete, etc.)
8. No Kosherwatch, Tumblrtale, Minecraft, and other games with really cancerous communities are banned, as is other media that's a cancer magnet like My Little Pony, and any announcements/trailers/news should be archived/webm'd, particularly if they come from cancerous sources
9. Leave the blogposting (looking at you /r9k/), ERP, shilling, avatarfagging, name/tripfagging when your identity isn't necessary for your posts, e-celeb discussion (while you may discuss their content if it relates to the board's topic, no discussing anything about their personal lives), and other such drama to other boards, and avoid creating threads that facilitate such things
10. Making a steam group/Discord/whatever for a campaign or multiplayer game is fine so long as you don't dedicate an entire thread to it and are willing to accept the responsibility/autism that comes with making/joining a discord, but no boardwide/"official" one
11. We have our own politics and values, mostly relating to love of games and expecting people to fit into board culture, but as long as your personal politics do not get in the way of this you'll be fine (/pol/lacks are allowed if they aren't obnoxious faggots, all /leftypol/lacks will be thrown out of the nearest helicopter, you get the deal)
Violation of any of the above rules will result in either a warning, a thread/post deletion, and/or a ban depending on the context and severity of the violation. If you want to complain about the rules or a warning/deletion/ban do so on the meta thread.
xbox one controller bug
Hi all,
I have an annoying XBOX one controller bug:
the controller drifts to the "up" direction with no human intervention, during all games sessions. The controller is stuck to the "UP".
I have not seen any info on this bug in the internet and do not know how to get rid of it.
Any info ?
Thx in advance

Hurricane Florence Survival Game General
The storm is a costly game you can only place once yearly.
Hurricane Florence is slamming the states of NC, SC, VA, and MD. There can be only one experienced weatherman and father of four talented enough to cover the news - Frankie MacDonald. He is informative and to the point in delivering accurate information verified by real scientists from Trump University. Hurricane Florence is a Category 4 storm with winds up to 130 miles per hour. Wilmington is already under evacuation, Myrtle Beach will be stranded upon landfall.
Will the East Coast ever be the same after Florence? Only time will tell.

HAMSTERDAM!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/musegames/hamsterdam
This is good kickstarter
Noted good points
- Ryu costume for Pimm for backers
- Switch at base goal (very noteworthy after a year and 7 months of the Switch being relegated to stretch goal fodder)
- Jamie Cox costume in game as early unlockable (yes, really)
- costume stretch goals (if Pimm dressed as Korra doesn't peak your interest maybe the prospect of Pimm dressed as former action film star and former sheriff Steven Seagal would)
You fellas got until the 29th of September [read: 30 days to go] to make the magic happen
Yes, really - It's worth it
I talked to the dudes on twitter and on facebook and they are good folks and openly welcoming to feedback especially any contributions
As an additional note: I did check both social media feeds for Hamsterdam [Twitter and Facebook]
Not a lick of SJW rubbish to be found
Thus another reason to back this game

DOOM/RETRO FPS THREAD
In which OP has the honor of inducting the first Doom/Retro FPS thread of /games/.
What you been playing? Anything neat that just came out or is on the horizon? Are you working on something?
I've been trying Insanity's Requiem, it's horribly unbalanced and the PC has the voice of a well-known edgelord but otherwise the weapons feel great and the design is simple but effective, minus the aforementioned lack of balance. Berserk pack replacement gives you tons of HP and armor but it's actually somewhat needed as a lot of enemies do ludicrous amounts of damage.
A new Trailblazer release came out a few days ago, nothing too major judging by the changelog but I'll still give it a shake.
Action vs. Narrative
Lately it feels as if there's been more of a push for narrative/story focused games. Take the new God of War for example. A series that's been known for it's action and brutality. A hack and slash gorefest that set in stone as a Playstation staple. Now with the newest game they're reportedly going for a harder focus on the story of Kratos and his son over just the action. The problem lies in just how different can you make a game before it's unrecognizable from it's previous incarnations.
What I wanna ask is several things. Do you like the new shift in focus on story first in this series? Do you prefer story over gameplay? What are examples of games that've mixed story and action well? What are examples of games that've done it poorly?
XCom 2: /games/ Edition
Hello /games/. A long time back I did something for /monster/ where I took OC creators, and shoved them into NuCom2 and set out to see who lived and who died.
I'm thinking doing this for /games/ but instead of OC creators I was thinking characters from Vidya, be it in-game characters, people from the industry, etc.
I'd link to the thread on /monster/ but it's gone. The gist is I'd stream on certain nights the game and everything for a few hours, and then in the thread post screen caps of highlights that happened during the course of the game. As for what I should use I might not use LW2 because I'm not a fan of "make it hard by adding lots of bullshit."
In any case I wanna hear some ideas. I'll have the mods edit the thread when it's ready.
Games as a service the future or another gaming flop?

/games/ share thread #1
Because the share threads are the only reason I still bother going to /v/, I thought I might start up a share thread for /games/. Shamelessly copying the general OP for the /v/ share threads.
Check IGG-Games first before making a request, please check that the other links are still up before posting.
For Wii ISO`s first, check Consoles.
For GOG first, check the May 16th GOG dump (PC) and the site(s) under Check before posting.
We prefer Danknets Magnet links and not that shitty clearnet, shit like bittorents and IPFS.

Guide to a happy Share Thread
Leechers:
1. Before you request,search online for the file you want,even use distributed search engines e.g.InfraSearch,Opencola,YaCy,FAROO. See below for famous links.
2. Look first in the archives and on volafile for the file you are looking for.
3. When requesting, be as specific as possible.If you have the cover art of the file you want,post it on both the share thread and on vola room.
4. Due to asshats in our share thread,links to files will be purposely misleading (have spaces,lines,keys&passwords split in the post),including torrent hashes.
If you see something like: c12fe1c06bba254a9dc9f519b335aa7c1367a88a |or| c12-fe1c-06bba25-4a9dc9f519-b335aa7c1-367a88a,it's a magnet link's identifier, probably being a BitTorrent Info Hash (BTIH).
Assuming you have a shitty bittorrent client,make a url prepending magnet:?xt=urn:btih:,so that it works out to magnet:?xt=urn:btih:c12fe1c06bba254a9dc9f519b335aa7c1367a88a&dn=youDIMWITTEDmother.fucker.tar
a. Find and Replace (sed/tr/awk) is your friend
Uploaders:
1. When in doubt,upload.Ask questions later.
2. Upload to many alternative sources (5+) and keep a local copy if space permits.
3. Use a URL shorterner (spaced or split) and/or paste relinks (https://www.zerobin.net/) on file links to confuse bots
4. Encrypt your uploads now with a password,key, or generator.Rename the files something random, even their checksums.Maybe even pad files to the nearest GB or so,to confuse bots.
5. If you have a stable computer connection,it is extremely advisable to self host the file, using anonymity tools like Freenet,I2P,Gnunet,distributed NNTP or MixMinion/Mixmaster.
Volafile:
1. Before you upload a batch of miscellaneous files,like images and music,be sure they are unique enough to stand on their own, and that you ask for the majority's the consensus whether to upload the files individually.
2. Vola room owner edit- Upload 5 files and then zip the rest if the dump is larger then 6-7 files. Music Albums exceeding 5 files are to be zipped.When uploading a raw torrent which includes skidrow,codex, etc files either add them to the a zip of the game or just don’t upload those misc files.Properly label files so that they can be identified without asking someone else.For lewd stuff with filenames like RJ74765 either add a .txt file linking to the contents on a website or just add the title to the file "BIG BOOTY WOMEN SIT ON SHOTA FACE (RJ34734)"
3. You can filter files by file type (.txt, .rar, etc) or search the file list with the bar hidden by the filter files button.
a. When in doubt,archive as a single [or split file if too large],then upload.
Also made a volafile room for /games/ here: https://volafile.org/r/c50327wc Feel free to post there.
Share away, folks.

DED GAME LOL
Right now no one but /v/ seems to be aware this exists, so best we can do is spread the word about it.
Why not TF2C?
Because the devs went full retard and deviated from what TF2C wa meant to do, instead they added a 4 team deathmatch mode no one really seemed to enjoy and useless hats and weapons. Also the lead now is a disgusting unstable tranny
Crappy meme settings
Aside from motion blur, what settings do you instantly disable in most games?
SSAO is usually rubbish. Good ambient occlusion isn't even accurate unless the scene is a cloudy day, and many versions add disgusting black halos to everything. Better versions waste extra frames to make an inaccurate effect more subtle and look closer to SSAO disabled, so why bother?

Final Fantasy VII Remake Team Urgently Recruiting, Here’s A Message From Key Staff
How is Square suddenly having issues with being understaffed months after the game's announcement? They're either trying to create a genuinely grand remake and don't have the manpower for it or are somehow understaffed even for making a half-assed cash crab. I'm betting on the latter, but how did they get to this sad state anyhow?

GURPS General
GURPS General, post questions and comments on this underrated system made by Steve Jackson Games.
Q.What is GURPS?
A.==GURPS==; or Generic Universal Role-Playing System, is a tabletop role-playing game system designed to allow for play in any game setting. For more detail, I suggest looking through the Wikipedia page. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GURPS
Q. How should I start?
A.The most recent edition is the Fourth Edition, and the best way to start playing is to download the free PDF of GURPS Lite, available online, it's 32 pages of simplified basic rules for GURPS, great for starting out and introducing players on the game. If you are serious about playing and GMing, I suggest you purchase the Fourth Edition's Basic Set, two books focused on Characters (PCs) and Campaigns (GMs). There are many other supplements to expand your game-worlds with equipment, adventures, details, vehicles and more.
Anyone have any memorable GURPS moments? Any interesting campaign settings, ideas, or characters you'd like to share, even just concepts? What do you like or dislike about GURPS, if anything?
Taking the Dice Pill
In my years browsing /v/, I found myself frequently thinking that more /v/irgins should simply give tabletop games a chance, since it seemed to offer everything they wanted. Since the board pulls heavily from /v/, but also features /tg/ interests, I'm curious to know how many of you indulge in /tg/ hobbies (RPGs, Board Games, Card Games, Wargames) and if not, why?
General Game News Thread
Since there doesn't seem to be anything quite like it here yet, we can use this thread to relay general vidya/tabletop news that you that feel are only worth brief passing mentions to keep people informed. It can also be used to gauge interest in whatever you wish to talk about; if you notice a good number of people sharing thoughts with you on a specific topic you posted, a dedicated thread of its own would have a good chance of taking off.
*Please do note that this thread's purpose is not to force any sort of posting rules or to filter thread creation. It's just a hub for open conversation.*
Metroid Thread
So, Samus Returns is out now, what do you think about it, /games/? How does it compare to the original, or to the fan-made remake AM2R? I've only just started it, but so far it isn't leaving a good impression on me. I don't much like having to use the control stick to move in a 2d sidescroller. Wall jumping can't be done in confined spaces, so you can't climb up areas you'd need the spider ball for and the game gives you an ability within 5 minutes that reveals part of the map to you and shows any breakable terrain on screen for a few seconds. I'm hoping it gets better later.

E3 Thread
In which we may express our endless disappointment and anger at this year's E3. So, what were you guys
>hoping for but didn't get?
>not expecting but actually are kinda interested in?
>most disappointed with (in regards to games that actually did show)?
>angriest at?
I was hoping for Ren's attempt at breaking the high scorenew FF7 remake footage, mostly to confirm my suspicions. I didn't expect Monster Hunter for PC, Metroid Prime 4, or a Dragon Ball fighting game made by Arcsys but they've got me intrigued, almost hyped. I'm disappointed with Xenoblade 2 because the VAing is terrible, the art direction slightly worse than the original, and the character designs are shit minus busty swordgirl.
And of course, what could be more infuriating than paid mods?
Crossing vidya with tabletop
Have you ever run a tabletop rpg set in a video games setting? Were you successful? Is there any vidya setting you can think of that would work well? I've done it with plenty of settings that aren't originally vidya (berserk's setting being my most successful), but never something that was originally a video game.

kill yourself The Touhou Project (東方Project) is a series of Japanese bullet hell shooter video games developed by the single-person Team Shanghai Alice. Team Shanghai Alice's sole member, ZUN, independently produces the games' graphics, music, and programming.
Plots in the Touhou Project games revolve around the strange phenomena occurring in Gensokyo, a fictional realm inhabited by humans and yōkai, supernatural beings. Prior to the events of the games, Gensokyo was sealed off from the outside world by a magical barrier. The main protagonist of the series, Reimu Hakurei, is a shrine maiden who manages the border, fighting antagonistic yōkai. The first five games were produced for the Japanese NEC PC-9801 computer series; bullet hell mechanics were introduced in the second game, Story of Eastern Wonderland. The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, released in August 2002, marked a shift to the Microsoft Windows platform, bringing the games to a larger audience. Several sequels followed, including spin-off fighting games that diverged from the series' traditional mechanics.
The series was inducted into the Guinness World Records in October 2010 for being the "most prolific fan-made shooter series". The Touhou Project has spawned a media franchise including commercial fan books, music, light novels, and manga, in addition to the main series.

Nintendo Thread
You cant talk about this on /v/ so I am going to make a thread here. Lets talk about the Switch, new games coming out, etc. I have been playing the arms global test punch and the motions controls are meh. I have the pro controller and its alright but if you cant rebind the buttons its going to make playing that game harder then it needs to be. Overall though I dig the presentation and feel with the gameplay. Also Monster Hunter is getting ported and its one of the reasons I bought the thing since my 3DS got stolen and I didn't bother picking up a new one.

I am debating whether or not that "No Good RTS's Post 2007" is a meme.

At the start of the second exodus this anon made a number of posts between /gg/ and /tg/ that caught the whimsy of some many other anons. The caps are out there, I won't post them, but it seems colorfully aesthetic summaries are a talent of mine. The point is that many appreciated a mythopia on the events of the exodus. However, this anon was ignorant in the ways of the esoteric and archetypal, and had yet to witness the green rays of black sun. This anon is now becoming wiser down to the core, and is growing a very nice vegetable garden of the soul where once was desert. Tart blueberries too.
Given the events that have transpired, the reemergence of monolithic books, ideas, and -ism gestalts, this anon feels the need to swing my slow brew work into a full project. One that as yet has no name, but is of utmost importance. Our culture must be preserved in some manner, made into something less ephemeral. By way of Joseph Campbell, then Carl Jung, an all consuming love has entered my heart for the tarot and its iterative symbols. That of all things in Western lore it may be seen as an amalgam of our subconscious feelings put to print. Nothing else like past or present, save our current year memes.
This project will take years. This project will take money, probably my own. This project might just give us a cultural foundation to stand on, because it doesn't look like anyone else has any better ideas. Except that shield dude on /tok/, but he has yet to make any pics.
Meta Thread #1
Welcome to the grand opening and first shitpostingmeta thread of /games/, everyone.
This board was made by yours truly, a raging autist from /monster/. Long story short, I saw many /monster/fags and other posters upset about the redditization of /v/ and the general shittery of /tg/, a feeling I shared being a former /v/irgin who dabbles in /tg/ (albeit moreso the fluff). This idea for the board came to me the same night I discovered I was bizarrely linked with the Egyptian goddess Pakhet, and supposing an Egyptian meme god may be behind me I thought I might step up to the hotpocket plate.
If you have any questions/requests/transgressions/suggestions about the board, the rules, the subject matter, the moderation, or me, this would be the time and thread to do it.

a Rabbit Rabbit Thread for /games/
Here it comes! /games/'s own exclusive rabbit rabbit thread! You might not know what it is, since I posted the explanation last time in the ordinary rabbit thread. That's okay, here it is again:
It's an old English good luck charm that you perform once a month. When you wake up on the first day of the month, the first thing you do is say out loud "rabbit rabbit rabbit". You can also say "rabbit rabbit", "white rabbits", any combination of rabbit will do. When done correctly, you'll be blessed with good luck for the rest of the month. It's that simple!

Now that you know, let's rabbit rabbit together and have a great month!
