The Meta Thread
What makes /justvideogames/ different from all those other boards?
/justvideogames/ is a video game discussion board. This board is a bit different from a place like /v/ in that it is not video games with a slice of /b/ justified under the pretense of “board culture”. The only board culture here has to do with video games! This board is different from /svidya/ (or at least how it used to be) because we won’t ever try to tell you whether your post is “high quality” enough to stay on the board. Every post does not need to be an essay. As long as you keep it about video games, go wild! It is not our call to decide whether an opinion on a game or video game topic is acceptable—we are only here to ensure the topic of discussion (that of video games) stays focused. And finally, this board is different from other alternatives like /vvv/ in that we do not believe in the concept of “zero moderation”. Without any moderation at all, every board no matter what the outlined goal of discussion is eventually turns into an anarchic free-for-all like /b/. Newcomers come in, see the random fun everyone is having either ironically or not, and slowly user replacement edges the topic away from its original intention. We won’t let that happen here. Rest assured: when you browse the catalog on /justvideogames/ looking for something about video games to discuss, you won’t have to wade through a bunch of off-topic stuff to get to it.
Here are the current rules we've devised after some deliberation. Keep in mind these rules are still a work in progress and these may end up changing a bit down the line.
THE RULES
1. If it’s video games, it stays! We won’t attempt to police your opinion on video games!
2. If it isn’t video games, well anon we have plenty of other boards on 8ch to facilitate your topic of discussion. And in the event that we don’t, you can always just make one of your own!
We do not believe in rules against “trolling” or “shitposting” because it is simply too difficult to consistently ascertain whether someone is trolling or genuine; whether they’re simply saying something disagreeable or trying to stir up shit. These sorts of rules are always open to personal interpretation from individual volunteers, which lead them inevitably to individual abuse such as a person looking for the flimsiest of excuses to remove an opinion they simply don’t like. We have all seen this happen on too many internet forums (chans or otherwise) to know better.
3. Spoiler your non-worksafe images please; it’s only courteous. Also if video game porn threads ever begin to take up too much of the catalog we may have to intervene. We all remember what happened to 4chan's /gif/ board.
4. No advertising! I hope this doesn’t go against our stated intention of avoiding abuse, but we will try our best to remove advertising in only the most clear-cut instances.
5. Please don’t flood the board with many of the same threads, remember that the catalog exists.
6. Dubs posting and other ways to draw attention to the fact that a 10% chance event happened to your post are /b/ shit and thus do not belong on /justvideogames/. You're perfectly fine to voice your disapproval of a thread by calling the OP a faggot in multiple ways and placing a shiny SAGE on your post, but we will not allow the perpetuation of off-topic spam. You don't fight shit by flinging more shit around. Dubs is just /b/ garbage that encourages the posting of more /b/ garbage.

How do you define "retro"? Pretend that halfchan's /vr/ never existed.
I personally hesitate to include anything made after the NES generation.
>game stores its setting in the Registry
Why is this allowed?
factorio
why the fuck am i not getting suffficient throughput at peak usage? i have literally a gorillion pumps and its just not getting through. its not a source issue either, ive got like 8,000 gallons available before the pumps even start. eat my cock flood detection ill make this post on multiple boards if i want to.
ever hear of terra tech? its Early Access i know, and its not without problems, but its fun right now and it has potential to be really good.
Questionable Game Design
What are some parts of video games that make you really question what the developers were thinking when they designed them?
Stage 3 of Image Fight has this ridiculous boss that fills the screen with lasers that turn 90 degrees seemingly at random. I have never managed to figure out a way to beat this boss in the intended manner as the lasers are just too difficult to predict.
Instead, there is an exploit where you can simply park your ship up above the boss as it's deploying its laser pods and then destroy it with little effort by damage from your ship exhaust or gun pods.
Hey anon, whatcha playing?
Tell us about it.
Age Of Empires 2

JUST video games here?
Let's talk about the Smash 4 ballot, who's gonna make it?
So I stumbled across this freeware shooter called MECHA Ritz recently and I'm pretty impressed with it. It's a bullet hell shooter with a snazzy Genesis/FM Towns-style chiptune soundtrack. It's pretty easy to simply clear despite the way it looks, but the idea with the game is to play for score and have it get harder on you as you play better.
The most striking thing to me about this particular doujin game is that it actually lets you map your own keyboard controls for once, instead of forcing ZXCV + Arrows faggotry on you.
You can download it here by clicking the big top link that says 「MECHA Ritz」 on it:

Give it a try!
Does anon have any other underground freeware that people never seem to talk about?
Tree of Savior
Since this board barely moves atm, may as well make a thread here to last until the next HAPPENING.

Definitely Not Hype
What game(s) are you waiting for? How far into development is it? Is it turning out to be shit?
I sure hope it's not Mighty No. 2
Personally, I'm waiting on Tree of Savior and MGSV. The former is looking alright and fairly polished from the streams I've been watching (despite supposedly being several patches behind the Korean version) and I'm only slightly worried about microtransactions in MGSV. Hopefully it'll be a good last hoorah for Kojima as he moves on to other things.
I also supported Combat Core on Kikestarter and it's shaping up to be an okay Power Stone clone. My only criticism (having not played it yet) is lack of environmental activity and/or destruction. I'm also being cautiously optimistic about Bloodstained and crossing my fingers that it doesn't end up being a scam like it was with Inafune.
