I can't afford to buy video games, so I'll have to pirate retro ROMs. What is the absolute best video game for the N64?

And no Zelda that shit sucks

Gamecube has some games that was originally n64 games. Having an n64 with a fuck ton of games i bought from yard sales, I have to say it is worth it if you actually own the console (and thats if it still works, is clean or can be cleaned and so on)
Being a consolefag and living with people that feel like digital emulation is like devilworship, It meant i couldn't just intall an emulator so i had to just make due with what i can find.
Mario 64 has a DS game that has cleaned the graphics and smoothed the gameplay, 3DS (if you can find it) has OOT and a few other games on gamecube (sm64 too i think)
I think switch also has some n64 games emulated to switch you can buy in stores or gamestop.

Also goldeneye 007 has plenty of ports from DS, To Wii, to xbox and i think gamecube.
If you own gamecube disks and not a gamecube, but a wiii, the wii can actually play the disks natively without any problems via backwards compatibility.

Anon, don't use Project64, that's spyware! Use Mupen64 + a Reshade CRT preset. That's what I use and it works very well.

Correct, the N64 has a very small library. There aren't any hidden gems for the N64.

Any GOOD "Deep web" (as some would call it) horror games such as Sad Satan and kind of like Psychopomp? Basically good psychological horror games with bad and unusual textures. Not 2D though.

Happy I could help! These sorts of games are my favorites but it's hard to share them since they're a little out there.
The terms I see come up are exploration game or maybe something like first person dungeon crawler. Walking simulator? Throw "retro style" or even "vaporwave aesthetic" in there and folks should get the gist. Listing a few games like you did is probably the best way to go. I guess it's more of a vibe than a genre which makes things tricky to name without making a word salad.

>Whenever I see a game become an overnight sensation like this I prefer to steer clear for a bit
Games like this or Lethal Company are rarely actually good. They're good bait and nothing else. For a while it was the "coop survival horror" stint that a bunch of lets players went on. For PalWorld, it's effectively bait for the entire gaming community because it's just "Pokemon but good" even though Palworld isn't good and Pokemon isn't good either.
They're just bait games. That's why they die so fast-- they have ZERO staying power because their only appeal is something separate from itself. The appeal of Palworld isn't that it's PALWORLD, the appeal is that it's Pokemon but "Good", and that just isn't enough to keep people around.
It's frustrating but it keeps the brainless normgroids distracted for better games to be appreciated by people who actually care

all this is going to do is change the market because said brainless normroids are making gaming companies think that the market enjoys the bare minumum and so that's all they'll bother putting out.
people bitched about dlc and horse armor prices being up the roof expensive but they really didn't do nothing to nothibg but post shit memes instead of not buying the games and protesting. people made shit mlg memes about mountain dew and doritos and MLG and all that did is bolster corperate sponsored competitive gaming which saturated the market with shit multiplayer games no one gives a fuck about.
theres going to be more palworld clones and theres nothing anyone can do to stop it infact i'm sure the people that enjoy it think their sticking it to the man but in reality all they are doing is pushing the market to shit out whatever.

Seems mostly to be the case, but I still hear about it now and then. Yesterday the devs announced a dating sim for april fools. Confirmed to have nsfw content. Reminds me of that KFC dating sim that every youtuber thought was hilarious a few years back, just a predatory cash in on a genre that has a struggling image as-is. Seems like a red flag that they're announcing this so soon, considering the past history with ditching projects. Maybe it's small enough in scale that it's cheap to produce and the effort/publicity ratio works, I don't know. I don't work in marketing. As a consumer, when a dev team that's supposedly stretched thin starts producing furry porn I take it as something of a red flag.

I guess the game isn't going out of early access anytime soon. I figured with how popular the game was earlier this year the devs make it their main focus, but it seems like I might never play the game if the developers never finish it.

The dice which decides every single action in the game is acting as its own separate entity, the equivalent of you throwing a dice in real life. The outcomes it produces aren't pre-determined by your selected class or your character's attributes. The character attributes seem to have a relatively limited influence on the gameplay, only contributing a +2 bonus to the dice roll in certain situations. Even when you select a character focused on persuasion and charisma, like a bard for instance, and opt for a Bard-specific dialogue option during a conversation, the game still insists on a random dice roll exceeding 15 for success, regardless of your character's specific attributes. Even choosing the strongest class doesn't guarantee victory in battles, as the outcome largely depends on the randomness of the dice roll. There seems to be a lack of purpose in having different classes due to this randomness. It's just so frustrating so why not just go and play real D&D Tabletop at this point?

Did you ever challenge yourself in a game? Put yourself in a situation out of boredom, or to spice up an old game you played before? Did you know of anyone who did a challange that was interesting?
I read Berserkand afterwards i started playing Dark Souls a few years ago and i figured "fuck it, i want my guy to carry a big sword and fuck magic and projectile weapons, i want to beat every retard with the same sword" and then i spotted the elite knight set and i decided to use that entire set for the whole game. i had a ring that gave me more energy, and havels ring and a grass crest shield and i changed nothing besides one time i had to enter the abyss and needed the abyss walker ring to survive.
I also did some minor research into soft and hard caps and basically dumped everything into the stats i needed and ignored the stats i didn't use. basically everything besides faith and magic.
I also found and abused grinding spots for roughly five hours and damn near maxed everything out and i had like 99 liquid souls and 99 regular souls times two on hand incase i lost everything.
Keep in mind i didn't have the master key so i pretty much had to build myself up which took time, wasn't like i was playing on easy mode but i did well for what it was worth. Magic was the gamekiller, i had zero protection and some entry level low grade magic literally damn near insta-killed me and don't talk to me about that blind draggon faggot and his dancing wizard and his crystal caverns, i think i died over 300 times because of him. also the butterfly, in order to survive i took an anons advice and stripped buck naked with only a shield and my zweihander and that battle was difficult as fuck. Also the one eyed dragon nearly got be twice, before i even reached his boss area and halfway through the battle.
Should i have bothered challanging myself before i even played the game? No, But it was actually fun and made the playthrough memorable.

Against all other attacks i could tank but magic? NO. I actually quit playing out of frustration (for damn near the entire year) but then i figured out that you could stand behind pillars and you can effectively time out when to hide, and when to run and eventually you'll get him to stop running.

I was in a middle of a run, But i left the game for a year and i don't remember the controls and what to do so i'm better off starting over.
I was playing New Vegas, and i had a very interesting playthough. I was new to the game and instead of playing as "myself" I decided to play as "The Punisher" and kill a fuck ton of people i hated and damn the concequences. The most important targets was LGBT, I went and googled all characters related to that and made a little "war journal" of who they where, what they looked like, and where they where located. They where the most important and the lesser people to kill where people i figured where "degenerates" i.e cannibals and gouls, and then "retards" like wifebeaters or people that i hated for whatever reason. The most important people i had to kill in CREATIVE WAYS. And NOT IN THE SAME WAY. As an example if i shot one person miles away that was the only time i could do that. I wish there where more expressive ways to kill people lol like imagine hanging a few people to like a windmill and turning it on at top speed lol.
One way i had to kill a guy was nuking him at point blank range AND SURVIVING, meaning i had to fuck with my stats, carry the correct items and wear the correct stuff.
To make matters worse for myself i was playing on survival mode with the highest difficulty so i can only carry so much, had to constantly eat and rad-away was super fucking slow.
It was a fun run and there's so much that went wrong lol and i'm looking forward to doing it again especially don't remember too much of it (besides pissing off the entire brotherhood of steel and fending them off with a fuck ton of gernades and a shitty pistol.

Also mutated animals count but the problem is there's this one scorpion thats unkillable, because of a bug. He ran into a rock and imploded on me so i guess that counts as a kill but man i don't want to face that fucker again, i used all my fatmans on him and he kept coming at me.
I also don't know if i'll break the game by killing someone important but hey i've glitched my way out of problems before so maybe i'll figure out a way to survive.

I hate this game sometimes. It's RNG bullshit. But sometimes, that RNG bullshit can make for some real interesting stories

I had a real heated moment recently playing ds3. Bascially, I was fighting the demon prince boss, and I was able to bring it to <10% of health. It was a quite intense battle, and it took me several attempts to reach that point.
And that's when I ran out of mana flasks. Yep, I'm a pyromancer. I could do nothing but stare at it as it killed me.
This boss was otherwise quite fun actually, and it looks pretty awesome. But I really dislike the fact that I had to grind for it. This has never happened before; I never had to grind to beat a boss because it was always a skill issue, or I could go to some other area first instead. Here instead my only options were to optimize the fight in order to consume less health flasks (fucking bullshit) or farm. And it's the first time I really had to go farm some souls to deal more damage and look up on youtube locations of bonus flasks, and that was quite disappointing. I finally beat it today. I'm a bit tired of this game to be honest, the last couple bosses burned me out, but I gotta finish it...
>>288
RNG taketh, RNG giveth, lol. I find it interesting how RNG can contribute to a game being really fun if it's balanced. I've been playing a deck builder called dominion lately and while randomness has much influence, skill still matters a lot; so in the end it's a good mix. No-RNG games like chess instead can become a headache pretty quickly.

Not really about the game itself but it really pissed me off. I had downloaded Factorio yesterday and spent the entire day playing it. After the gaming session I realized I had gotten 1.1.3 something instead of the most recent one (1.1.80), so I went and downloaded it, choosing to uninstall the old version. Today I wanted to resume my game and realized the uninstaller also deleted my save. Really pissed me off, the fucking thing didn't even ask me if I wanted to delete saved games like other uninstallers do

How is the remake? Is it another shit remaster or does it fix some problems that the original game had. Is there a focus on psychological horror? Besides that one thing you brought up, How are the graphics? Do they hold up? Or is the whole thing something to rage about?

As a pretty big fan of the original, I actually really like the remake. I would absolutely recommend it but the game is riddled with audio bugs. From nape to navel the audio is absolutely terrible. Oftentimes big combat segments would be dead silent. Music won't play at all or will only start to play well after the combat's over. Sound effects would drop or be extremely delayed, oftentimes not playing at all.
I'm a massive fan of the original Dead Space, and I think this game is really good. The gameplay is solid, the weapon rebalances are great, the changes they made to the formula were almost exclusively positive, the new story is interesting, and I like Isaac's writing. But, I just CAN'T recommend this because the audio problems are so pervasive they will ruin the entire experience.

Let us discuss the Dark Soul's trilogy, from lore to gameplay to anything else that's relevant. What's Dark souls? A third-person, dark fantasy action adventure RPG With a focus on minimalistic storytelling and exploration.
Your goals: Understand what's even happening and Survive
Personally, I had quite the adventure after beating the first game and am currently playing the second game in the series. It seems like there was quite a bit of discussion about dark souls on the last site and I think this thread might not burn out too early.

DS3 has some tiny references to DS2 but for the most part they're completely disconnected. 3 is a direct sequel to 1 but in terms of mechanics it's more of a regression of 2.
You can play the games in whatever order you want though, it doesn't matter unless you care about following the lore

I had basically went against advice from an anon and basically grinded until i maxed out my stats for my zwihander build and I also damn near fully upgraded my elite knight set and i pretty much blazed trough the game without any problems lol. two/three hits killed every boss but i did sweat with kalameet. getting to the boss area was hard enough with him KOing me within seconds and then battling him was insane, i had to be real quick and it took 5 hits overall to kill him. manus spooked the hell out of me but was trivial. its a build to play on a second playthrough but it didn't ruin my experience overall.

I liked how Oolacile was actually that wood area in dark souls. It was a neet revelation. It was sad to see that Sif recognised you as the person who saved her and slain Artotias. It was interesting to enter a world that had just became an apocalypse and was still bright and clean. Kinda like the beginning stage of a zombie apocalypse, everyone was infected but life was still there. The chimney fire was still burning in the houces you enter and the people there was freshly infected by darkness.
