Considering the recent failed revival of the game(yet again). I've been getting the itch to restart our monthly game nights of it. I'll try to keep hosting once a month on the first weekend of the month. It'll be on max like always. Which you can get here 
https://www.s4max.com/

The next game will be on the 5th. At 20:00 GMT.

There is aa thread on the other website too. Cross posting here since a lot of the old players may not be following both websites.

Feel free to discuss the failure that was the vfun revival, dump old clips and screenshots. Or host yourselves.

There's a prevailing sentiment online that waypoints, compasses, other directional HUD elements, and signposting are as necessary for a general audience as they are obnoxious for a niche one. The main blame is the average person's intelligence, but there's also people citing engagement metrics and even graphical fidelity as being problems, but what about the developers themselves? So many games nowadays have highly contextual animations and low levels of interactivity that it might not even occur to players that they can even experiment. Does the simple act of adding details and interactions, even if they are considered superfluous and have no effect on how the game is played, spur enough creative thought to get most people past the need for yellow paint? By being so accessible, are developers literally making players stupider?

I'm having a Berenstein Bears/Mandela Moment. I SWEAR I remember being stuck forever there as a kid. I popped in my cartridge and you're right, it doesn't show it in the attract mode, but I still can't believe it.
I'mma play through a new file until I get power bombs and see that tube and leave it on attract mode and see if anything changes. The more I think about this, the more I think I was stuck at that point, and remember just kind of blindly sitting at the title screen trying to think through what to do when I saw it being hinted at there.

Y'know after watching (most) of the idi4300's video on re8 i am once again full of disappointment on how the game is clearly unfinished. I think it could've been the best modern RE game released if it wasn't for the rushed development. I remember in my playthroughs of the game i was sometimes thinking "this could be so much better" or " did no one raise any concerns with this?" the areas i can readily point to is the dollhouse with how it's a bitch for replays of the game (and it's not even scary the first time), wasted village characters, plot holes and the story making no sense sometimes, the mercenaries game mode felling lacking in the maps as well as the hard difficulty just locking you out of any fun builds, Mia having almost no involvement in the story despite being a perfect way to usher in more lore with the connections / mold / cool sections where you play as her like in re7, Chris being a moron and suffering a downgrade in his gameplay from 7's dlc, the castle and factory seeming to be the only parts of the game with thought put into them, etc. Such a shame it was not given more time in the oven. I hope Ethan, Mia, and Rose comes back in a future game(s).

Okay everyone, there's a FREE Adventure-RPG hybrid game I feel like sharing because the game is surprisingly fucking good and so I need to run my mouth about it. Heroine's Quest is a spiritual successor to Drug Wars the Hero's Quest (which was later renamed to Quest for Glory after some legal shit) series, that was released on December 26th, 2013, and it's perhaps the only such spiritual successor that deserves to be mentioned in the same breath as them. It's like someone took a point & click adventure game and added a dollop of RPG mechanics and abilities that have actual fucking non-combat utility, along with combat.

I have been missing the feeling of a RPG that isn't hack & slash slop, where the game has actual fucking gameplay outside of fucking combat and your stats and skills matter for more than fucking combat, for a long-ass time, so this game has been a right breath of fresh air for me. The game is basically a point & click adventure game but with actual RPG mechanics on top. You pick one of three classes and then you get to pick between cranking up your stats and adding cross-class skills to your character, allowing you to do new shit. Every weapon has its own tricks and combat moves and if you aren't a warrior you should contemplate avoiding combat until you're strong enough

I mean, from the mainframe days through Wizardry or Ultima into the twilight of turnbased AAA in the 90s, "basically equivalent in form and complexity to combat in D&D, maybe with other stuff like hexcrawl thrown in" was pretty coherent. One could argue about realtime stuff like Baldur's Gate or TES, but by the time you end up at something like Witcher it's clearly attenuated into minor elements at most.

I'm not so sure those floppies are any good because I noticed a sharp decline in quality after the production was outsourced to China in the mid 90's.
Also the Amstrad CPC/PCW used non-standard 3-inch floppy disks, so they're much less common than 3.5-inch or 5-inch disks. Actually they're much sturdier (the casing) and I like them more, even though they were only single density (formated to 180 KB/side in AMSDOS). But that was actually a lot of space for an 8-bit computer. The 16-bit computers like Amiga is where they started to bloatmax their games with graphics and sound that needed multiple floppy disks, and thus a HDD (only if you were rich in the 80's!) or the disk-swapping juggle act.
Anyway I finally got near the end of this adventure game I started playing last month. I think the ship in the distance is my way off the island, but I can't figure out how to reach it, and I pretty much explored everywhere and tried everything I could think of. But it was a lot of fun anyway.

Too lazy to search for sauce right now, but I recall autism (meaning all autistic disorders up and down the spectrum from tubthumping mongos to subclinical ADHD tendencies) are statistically correlated with higher mutational load, lower g factor, and lower overall fitness. The stereotypical "autistic nerd savant" is basically a perceptual illusion created by various types of confirmation bias and sampling error, such as the meritocratic and solitary nature of STEAM professions making social ineptitude less of an impediment.

here u go, blame the fish or hotwheels (pbuh) or whoever for coding this shitty site
Sorry for the "necrobump", but does this game require phoning home to the developers in order to host a game? I tried hosting a game for some bros, and it froze, saying this in the logs:
>ERROR: Failed to contact rendezvous server (relay.kartkrew.org).
Apparently I accidentally broke the DNS on my Linux system some time before launching the game, and I promptly fixed the DNS issue (it wasn't able to resolve any domains, not just the "kartkrew" one), and that also fixed the issue with the game and I was able to host the game fine.
But what I want to say is that I still think it's concerning that you apparently can't host a game without connecting to this "kartkrew" server.
