hey mods whats the ip address for this account

Why would I ever tell anyone that?
I know how to get it anyway.

Besides, where you won't talk, Cheat usually will.
I'm pretty sure that's illegal to give out someone IP
if it is then this site would be illegal cause it gives all the mods everyone's IPs

that's not illegal in itself, if you're planning to do something illegal using it sure

The real question is, is this person another user here or someone actually new?
I was hoping this would be the answer they'd follow up with instead, but yes

It kinda seems like No Man's Sky suffered from the same problem Spore did; not just in the sense that it offers relatively uninteresting procedurally generated aspects, but in the sense that it thinks offering scope and novelty is enough to hold the attention of people.

For that, you really need narrative.
novelty usually doesn't work on its own unless it's actually where the gameplay is built around (e.g portal) and I wouldn't say they don't offer scope, they just don't fulfill it or make it interesting

it's completely possible for a game to have no story whatsoever and be fun, minecraft for instance, or even track racing games if you want

a story is good but if you have a convincing world with well-rounded gameplay rather than the current gameplay loop which seems to be gather materials from this rock the same way you do with this other rock, and get protection for you suit from the cold/radiation/toxic weather, which people have described pretty much work exactly the same under a different variable name; either wears down your suit the more time you spend exploring on it, and you have to top it up with something to keep yourself alive

really though, maybe I'm misunderstanding your idea of "narrative" or whether the game has enough activities to be able to convince yourself that you can build your own story out of it.

Over the last 17 months, you've spent 187.5 hours playing this selection, which includes 15 items, is valued at $102.93, and requires 70 GB

Oh yeah, I never see you on steam

I don't really use it, its just on

ooh, this developer lied once

worst game ever
i wouldnt say its the worst game ever but the game from general consensus seems to be boring and lacking in meaningful variety in activities and mechanics

e.g, heat, radiation, toxicity functions in the same way, so does mining every metal

edit: let's say they did lie, they lied for the express purpose of getting sales, and they got your money; as a customer do you feel like you rightfully paid for the product you wanted, or would you not stand for a product not as described or advertised

Gaming / Re: Would you restrict what games you child could play?
« on: August 13, 2016, 08:49:52 PM »
Speaking of anecdotes: I have reason to believe, via personal experience, that restricting your children from playing certain games will lead them to continue playing more tasteful games well into their adulthood (ie. they'll be less of a degenerate).

My dad, though he was okay with playing Vice City in front of me as a child, wasn't very comfortable with letting me play the game myself, because I was only around 10 years old at the time. Just watching him play, however, allowed me to contemplate all the things he was doing and evaluate them morally. I'd ask him questions like, "What are you doing?" And he'd answer, bluntly and honestly.

"Why are you driving an ice cream truck?"
"I'm selling ice cream to children. They're laced with drugs."

I remember when he introduced me to the sniper rifle. I asked him what the sniper rifle did, and he demonstrated by sniping a civilian from a building. His head exploded in a geyser of blood. After awhile, the implication of my dad shooting innocent people started to become apparent, so I asked him, "Why are you killing all these people?"

"Because I'm the bad guy," he said. "I mean, I'm not a bad guy, but you play as a bad guy in this game."

At that point, it clicked. Either way, I decided that the game wasn't for me, because I didn't have any interest in being a bad guy, and shooting innocent people didn't really seem like something I wanted to do. I'd rather be a good guy doing good things, and I was scared that if I played GTA, I might become a "bad guy" myself. That didn't sound like fun to me.

And to this day, it still doesn't. I've still never touched a GTA game in my life, and I'm three years above the recommended age. Most M-rated games are (or contain) tasteless garbage, and if my dad hadn't shown me that at an early age, I'd probably be just like most of the degens here, playing dumbass games like Grand Theft Auto or Saint's Row.
do you think your dad is a bad guy

either way theres many a piece of media where the protagonist isnt "good" but you still want them to succeed, maybe its a heist movie or a seige

Do any of you have any zinc which I could have? I've found a crashed ship which I decided to use and I need zinc to fix one of the engines. I'm stuck on this zinc-less planet unless I somehow find some.

You're severly wrong about the minimum system requirements, replace them with this-

They apparently left a ps4 library in there too that you can only get from dev kits. I doubt it'll do anything for the PS4 emulation scene, but its a fuck up regardless.

If you put a mining laser to my head, I would tell you that from what I’ve seen so far, yes, I do like No Man’s Sky. It’s the video game equivalent of a “Sounds of the Ocean” album when gamers are used to listening to Skrillex.

pretty much what i wanted to hear about it

i wouldnt really call it a game but youd be looking for a similar experience to journey or abzu

if youre looking for challenge or, well, gameplay youre probably not going to find it in nms

Kinda like putting music on the background of the Crew and turning off the Hud. Just relaxing right?

not sure if this is a jab but yes

It would've been cool for combat to have been more viable for a career, or at least more varied. As it stands now it's just flying in a circle until you can point and click enemies to death.

High-stakes smuggling was actually pretty damn fun though, and I wish there was some combat built into that field rather than just immediately losing your money after a scan--like an option to fight the security ships, or something.

they upped the ante of the ai for engineers, its a lot more tricky now, anything higher rank than you, should probably look out for

they will have better ships with better gear

not sure if stealth has become an option against ai yet
