    Yaramaki got a reaction from kingpotato in Best Nintendo 3DS games   
    Alright let's go
    the 3ds i must say i had a hard time knocking it down to 10 games, especially since the line up of the 3ds is so divers. If you weed out all the shovelware garbage, you may have one of the best libraries of any handheld. Figured i'd include a picture because why the hell not.
     

    I'll just put em in random order, i'd must say it's been quite a while since i've played my 3ds so excuse me if i can't go into detail :
    Ridge Racer 3D -> This was a launch game and the one i picked up alongside pilotwings when i got my first 3ds a few weeks after launch. The reason i'm including it is because at the time it made the best use of the 3d effect and that was quite impressing. Not only that but it's imo the best racing game on the 3ds and will keep occupied for many hours. I'd even say it's best racing game on any portable system. 
    Dead Or Alive Dimensions -> While this up for debate, This is the best fighter on the 3ds. Infact i'd call it my favourite dead or alive game, A good amount of fighters and a whole story that takes atleast 15 hours to play trough. I'm not 100% sure but the story covers the first 4 games if i'm correct. All in all what i like most about doa is that it's easy to pick up and play, i don't have the time to put hundreds of hours into a fighter to become good anymore. Anyways there is plenty to unlock that will keep your busy for quite a while.
    Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney -> I don't think this got ported elsewhere yet, yeah what do you get when you combine the puzzles from the professor layton series with the more visual novel style gameplay from phoenix wright, yep this game. It seemlessly combines the gameplay from both series and blends the best of both worlds into one game. If you're either a fan of the series try it out. 
    Super Mario 3D Land -> probably had the best 3d effect of any game on the 3ds. It's 3d mario in 3D, not much more i can add. Hell lot of fun tough.
    New Super Mario Bros 2 -> Again this may also up for debate but if somebody would ask me what is your favourite 2d platformer i'm going to say Sonic. If somebody would ask me what is the best 2d platformer i'm going to say New super mario bros 2. Albeit a bit on the easy side, grinding towards a million coins has never been so much fun and satisfying. 
    Zelda : A link between worlds -> spiritual successor to a link to the the past, kinda looks similair to it aswell. Man what more do you want me to say without spoiling anything go f***ing play it, it's a classic. Doubt this will get ported to any system soon so what are you waiting for, go online and buy it before it prices goes trough the roof.
    Story of Seasons Trio of Towns -> Well if you like farming games and life simulation games this is the one to get imo. I had to include atleast one of these games in my top 10 so let it be this one. Not much else to add other then that the 3ds is the perfect platform for these kinda games. Be sure to have a lot of free time tough.
    Epic Mickey Power of Ilusion -> Castle of Illusion is one of my favourite sega games of all time, this is a tribute to it but dare i say it's even better. Old school 2D platforming goodness at it's finest. The mean  reason i'm including it, it makes the best use of the stylus in any game i have played on the 3ds. While you're at it go check out the first epic mickey on the wii because that's a classis too.
    Hometown Story -> This is a spin off of the harvest moon games, instead of a farm you run a shop. Instead of taking care of animals and whatnot, you go on a adventure, well to put it shortly because since you must be bored by now. It's a hyrbid between a life sim/management sim/rpg, what kept me really going that the town grows bigger once you progress trough the game. You can also get married and whatnot. The side characters are interesting in their own right. Too bad whenever i bring this game up, nobody played it or has even heard of it, well you get a second chance.
    Fantasy Life -> Hands down the best game on the 3ds, by far the game i put most hours on the system. I'm going to keep it short and hopefully you'll take my word for granted. If you have any slight interest in a jrpg or life sim, you need to play this game. Be prepared to kiss your social life goodbye and if you have a partner better tell them to you won't be having time for anything else in the next few months orso.
    And there you have it my top 10 3ds games. Apologies for the no doubt many grammar mistakes.

    Where is the third and fourth option? Switch and xbox series x?
    Pc gaming i'm not really interested in, i like my games physical and the comfort of a console is all i need. You know I always find it funny that pc gamers always have to bring up the specs of what they have and let's not forget the price of what their pc costs all the time. It's like who has the biggest d*ck contest, it ain't gonna win you any ladies fellas.
    Now the ps5 after the stunt sony pulled with gran turismo 7, i don't know man (nevermind my language) they can stick their ps5 consoles straight up their ass. I'm not really interested in it at this time, maybe i'll get one in a few years time but right now hell no. I've had a pre order for october but i'll mostlikely end up going to give it to a friend.
    Did you just make that up or what, why would the price of a ps5 go down to 400$ when there is no stock avaible everywhere. You don't need to be a scientist to figure out that aslong there is no excessive stock of a product it won't go down in price.

    Suprised nobody mentioned watch dogs 2 who probably makes to best use out it in any game mentioned so far well imho.
    You can hack somebody's phone and have them arrested or you can mark somebody as a traitor to a certain gang and they come and shoot at the person. Kinda funny that even without your direct involvement gangs sometimes go to war with eachother or the police. 
    There is something satisfying that you set up policeman to a gang and they come and fight with the police, while you are behind a fence or on a rooftop being a spectator. One thing i had a police officer arrest another police officer and they started shooting at each other, then i swooped into the forbidden zone for that skill point and nobody saw a damn thing.

    Yaramaki got a reaction from Shagger in Your favourite game series?   
    I know it's not directed towards me, but if you don't mind i'll join in and say my favourites are since i have played em all :
    Ac 4 Black Flag -> While a departure from the original ac formula, the ship combat added another dimension and has probably the best main character after Ezio in any game. The world was a joy to explore and the story was great overall. Even the present story made sense since you were inflirtrating abstergo i'm not 100% sure but that part ended with a cliffhanger. I think with the ship combat as a main thing ubisoft could easily make a new ip out of it, i know they announced skulls and bones a few years back but we haven't seen anything or heard anything from it in years.
    Ac 3 Brotherhood -> That game pretty much perfected what made ac 2 so good, Rome is a joy to explore, the story is great. Ezio to this day is still the best main character in any ac game. The music was also pretty much spot on, only thing i could say negative wise the combat is way too easy, since you can pretty much just counter and attack and you never die really. They also added another dimensions that you can recruit you're own assasins and train them, altough the game becomes even more easier that way.
    Ac Oddysey -> I'm going to put this one above Origins and Valhalla, because it's the game i enjoyed the most out of the three. It had the best setting of the 3 and the best main character as far as i'm concerned, i played as kassandra and liked her much better then eivor and bayek. The world is a joy to explore and the side quests and dlc were actually fairly good something that cannot be said about valhalla, the mercenary's also added quite a challenge especially early game when you meet some that are 20 levels higher then you, so you have to hide or run at at any costs. The game isen't perfect but with dlc combined i'd put 200+ hours into.
    And as a bonest i'll include a 4th :
    Ac Unity -> Yep i should get my head checked, probably the most hated game in the series but that's because most people who slam this game never played it and just take whatever the internet says for granted. I played this a year after launch and if i'm being honest i diden't encounter any bugs at all, This was in my oppinion one of the first true games that did the ps4/xbox one honour, not only does it still look amazing to this day, Paris is beautiful especially by night, you have these crowded areas that we haden't seen in any game at all at the time. The game also encouraged stealth and offered different options to kill your character that was quite new at the time, something they dropped all together in recent games, where you can just murder 30+ people and still be alive doesen't really make sense. I think the story is also one of the better in ac games. The co-up i felt like that was forced on for the sake off it, so i never bothered with that would be my only complaint.
    In the state the game is now i highly recommend you give this game a change (or a second one) you'll be suprised how good it is.

    No zelda game should be remade, they have been milked dry enough already. I'd much rather like that nintendo put their efforts in a brand new game instead of rereleasing yet another one. Doesen't have to be zelda perse why not a brand new ip, clearly nintendo knows how to build a good open world.
    Green ranger use your special power and grab yourself a cheap wii u with a copy of wind waker, that version is most exellent, while you're at it grab yourself a copy of xenoblade chronicles x and btw all of the (early) portable zelda games are on the wii u eshop for one to enjoy.

    And what is the process or how do you determine what post needs to be deleted ? thats my concern, how can I as member be assured that my comment wont be deleted just because the modders didnt like it ? 
    Im not trying to defend the posting habits of other members, Im also fed up with all those "spam" replies that dont add anything to the conversation. But I dont like the idea that my post might get deleted without a due process or warning before hand.

    What if for me its common sense to continue an old thread rather than creating another one ? I always do a search on the forum to make sure the thread Im creating hasnt already been made. Making a duplicate thread just sounds like spam, I dont see a problem with threads being merge, but I much rather continue an old thread than unnecessarily creating a new one, for me thats just spam posting.
    I know who the usual suspects are, I agree we need to push them to change their posting habits, this cannot continue , it is very frustrating, some times I just avoid making a comment on a thread just so the "spam reply chain" can stop, we do need to do something about this and Im sure if we all pitch in this can be resolved but I dont think deleting comments is to way to go, or to be more specific threat of a comment being deleted without a proper procedure.

    Guys I do have to disagree with one of your proposals here, you shouldnt be deleting other people's comments even if the comment itself is consider spam or "low quality" , I strongly agree that the quality of the comments needs to be improved but if you start to arbitrary delete comments just because the mods dont consider a comment of being "quality" its going to make most people here not wanting to post anything for being afraid that their comment might get deleted. I know that for most people here english is not their first language (myself included) and sometimes it can be difficult to translate an idea, but that is not going to change overnight and surely being told that your comment is going to be deleted if its not up to a standard is going to make us think twice before making any comment at all or just to continue visiting the forum. 

    Also there shouldnt be a problem with visiting or reviving old threads, as far as I know that is not against the forum policies.

    I do agree some threads are getting out of control and I do agree that sometimes the thread needs to be locked all toguether, or some comments do need to be deleted depending on the situation.

    But if a comment or reply or thread or whatever is going to be deleted there should be a more detailed process, like a report, a review talk between the mod and the offender, a chance to edit the comment if necessary or if possible or just simply a warning.  I dont want to find out that my comment was deleted without me knowing about it before first (if that ever happens) and I think everybody else here thinks the same.

    I do encourage some members to try to put a little more effort into your comments , since honestly the quality of the replies is very dissapointing, But we should try and change the habits on the forum.

    Trust me, and I'm sure I speak for @The Blackangel as well, the last thing we want to do is to start deleting people's posts, but there is a line to cross between a basic, but valid, forum post and something of so little worth it could be considered a form of spam. If some people don't step up thier game realize what the difference is, we are going to get to a point where we will have no choice.
     
     
    I hate to repeat myself, but it's about common sense. If it's a choice between creating a new thread and post one one with little active and hasn't had a reply for months, we will now give people a row for creating a new thread. The worst that we'll do is merge threads together, and that's all. It really isn't that big of a deal and people shouldn't be afraid to this.
     
     
     
    I have been engaging with members on this issue. I won't say who, but I will say this. Some people put more effort into defending thier posting habits than they do on the forum itself, and it's frustrating. People just don't an issue with blasting out 30-40 one sentence posts in the space of an hour or so, but it is a problem. It is not possible to post with the very basic level of foresight, diligence and care at that kind of pace, it just can't be done.

    To add to what @Shagger said, we have had people sign up and post the same thought on every thread they replied to, and even start their own topics to push that thought. No matter what was said, they would only post that one thought, or would incorporate it into all of their posts somehow. They would make multiple threads pushing it, and never reply to that thread again. Doing such actions not only gets on the nerves of the staff, but pisses off the rest of the forum as well. If you have a thought, feel free to post it. If you have a controversial thought, feel free to post it as well. But ask yourself "Am I ready for any backlash this post may get?" If the answer is "no" or "I don't know" then I would recommend waiting to post it until you feel ready for it.
    As said, we understand that English is not the first language of many members. We truly do. But it's that first language of the majority of the members. So as said, take your time making posts so that the whole forum can understand what your point is. It's not a race to get it done. Before I post I always take the time to read through what I have written to check for typos and make sure what I'm wanting to say comes through clearly. Sure I miss several, but there's always the edit feature. The staff can edit at any time, but the members have a 10 minute window. If that has lapsed, you can always ask us if it's something big. But if it's just a small typo, we're not going to bother with that. For example if you meant to type colour instead of color we're not going to take the time to edit the post, as we have bigger fish to fry.
    Either way, the staff has a job to try to keep things running smoothly. It's not always easy, and it's not always pleasant. But sometimes certain actions have to be taken, and occasionally, it's a "last resort" situation. But be assured, we don't do things of any kind of serious nature without lengthy discussion about it first.
    So use your head, post your opinions, and offer facts when you can. Remember, quality is infinitely more important than quantity.

    I've just had to give a member a wrap on the kucles for going on what I call "a rampage" of single sentence replies on threads mostly about the same subject matter. I think maybe it's time to better explain why burst of low quality posts done at a pace sometimes faster that one post every two minutes is harmful to the forum
     
    Somebody posting that much on so many topics so similarly themed in such a short space of time, it a split of your interest and it's impossible to believe that your caring that much about each one. That's the perspective, and like it or not, that matters despite the intention because that will affect how people engage and reply. Think about it, you see somebody had posted 30+ single sentence replies on a single sub-forum, like general gaming, a subject that holds a great deal of interest to you and want to discuss it on the forum, where do you start? It's frustrating and painstaking to go through all those topic one by one just to gauge the feelings, opinions and questions asked of a single person, especially when that individual just post a single, rushed sentence as the reply. It does not look like that individual actually cares much about what they post. It looks like somebody posting for numbers. Not to mention that these posts often look rushed with poor grammar and typos. The vast majority of people would be daunted and put off by this.
     
    That's why these bursts of post low quality posts harm the forum. It makes it daunting for other people to reply to anything, especially amongst those of us who like to put together longer, more detailed replies and topic with links, YouTube videos, references, paragraphs and so on. Why put that effort in when somebody is inevitably gonna go on a rampage of single sentence replies to as many other threads as they can as if it's a race and bump that post down where nobody will see it? That's the kind the kind of complaints we're getting about this behaviour. This habit of posting is careless and it is selfish, and no amount of good intentions behind it is gonna change that.
     
    I don't know how to make this any clearer. This is NOT a text a chain, it is NOT reddit, it is NOT discord and it is NOT social media. It is a forum. We are not expecting post to be legal documents nor a professors lecture, but there is an expected standard that is higher that the previously mentioned outlets.
     
    Please, all we ask is that you post to this forum like it's a forum. Let me make it clear that what you are about to read it my own, personal guide and it comes only from me, not the authority of VGR. They are not hard-line rules
    Use common sense when choosing to reply to a thread. When did the thread last get a reply? Is the thread dead? is the conversation still relevant? What of value can I really add to it? Would it be more appropriate to reply to this individual in a private message or a post to his/her profile? Use common sense when crafting your reply to a thread. I understand that English is not the first language for many of you, but do try to make your post legible. If English is not your first language, that's all the more reason to take your time. In your reply, make your point and/or address some else's point to give us a perspective of yourself. State why you feel that way. Do you agree or not agree with what others are saying? State why you feel that way. Give details. Use common sense when creating a new topic. Again, I understand that English is not the first language for many of you, but do try to make your opening post legible. If English is not your first language, that's all the more reason to take your time. Ask yourself, "Is this thread necessary?". I know that posting threads about already existing subjects is something of a grey area, but if the alternative is to reply to long, inactive thread with few in terms of replies and out of date information, assume it's ok to start a new one. Again, common sense. Craft your title with care. Make sure it's clear on showing what the topic is about. Remember, on VGR, the thread title forms the URL, so think about a title that will make the post visible on search engines. For example, if you are posting about a fix for a game breaking bug, you want the thread to be picked up by people searching for a solution to that same bug so they come to our forum for the answer. In the post, make it clear what subject is. Add external references or even graphics if you are up to it to validate the topic and make it stand out. State how you feel overall and why you feel that way. Tell us how you feel the situation you describe in the thread can be improve. Encourage others to state how the feel about it and why. If it's a news or political topic, link any articles or YouTube videos you found on the subject. And above all, make it worth it. If the opening thread will end up as one or two sentences with no external references, odds are it won't be.  
    You may have noticed a common theme there, common sense, and I believe in VGR's members, you can rely on your common sense. However, if these "rampages" continue, the staff will have little choice to consider other options. Time limits and other restrictions on posts, setting a more specific standard of quality that will be enforced or indeed trying some of the things suggested in this thread. Either way, I don't want that. I want people to start simply posting to this forum like its a forum, that's not asking for much.

    Yaramaki got a reaction from kingpotato in Last Game Played   
    Been about 10 hours in watch dogs 2.
    it's pretty good don't know why i failed to stick with the game a couple of years ago, but damn the world feels so alive , yesterday i noticed a woman beating her husbands car with a bat because she discovered he cheated on her. I had a guy giving me a punch because i toke a selfie and he was in it i guess.
    I think this may be the best open world i've seen from ubisoft so far despite the game being over 5 years old, map isen't too big either. Good likeable side characters aswell.

    Looks like i won't be getting any mail sometime soon, since japan post suspended delivering mail to europe and since it's been pilling up so here is the stuff from the past 2 months orso. Meanly stuck with the 3 systems i'm meanly collecting for at the moment japanese xbox, xbox 360 and wii u.
    Og Xbox pick ups, think i'm down to 175 out 222 games released in japan, so it's just a matter of chipping away at it, got most of the expensive stuff already, hopefully i can complete it this year well if i don't get sidetracked that is :

     
    Xbox 360. trying to round out the collectors editions, pretty sure i have 90% of the collectors editions released in japan now, as for games i'm not really far off to have everithing it's just a matter of feeling to get all the sports games : 

    And wii u, i've got some found memories for the system so that's why i collect for it. One of my top 10 jrpg's off all time is still trapped there btw. There are only a little over 100 physical games released in japan so it's something i'm aiming for to complete. Not going super hard on it, if i can find a deal i'll take it but i'm not in a rush. Also a lost shikigami no shiro limited edition on the ps2 because i had no clue where to put it :

    And the best for last, i need to stop buying dreamcast consoles since it's going to ruin me haha. Now i see how much i suck at taking pictures, anyway got a good deal on it, in terms i can easily make a profit on it if i was to sell it on ebay.  But it's a keeper, it's said only 200 were made, but it shows up a little too often for that so probably more like 2000. This is probably going to be one of the best picks up of the year for me, very happy with it, it looks like it's never been used until i tested it out :

    I've noticed this to be a trend in racing games and especially forza horizon it's noticeable, there are cars that cost 15 million credits, you can never gather that much credits  even by winning all the races. You can either win some trough a wheelspin if you're lucky or you have to grind countless hours. I get a ferrari 250 gto or a mclaren f1 just to name a few are amongst the rarest cars in the world, but they shoulden't be unobtainable in a video game.

    Don't really know what to call it so it will have to do for now. As title says and i won't deny it i like to collect and buy videogames, most forums i used to visit were collector based so they all had these sort of threads so here we go, post video game and video game related stuff you bought, pictures are a must imo so we know what you are talking about. Pretty much anything goes aslong it's somewhat related to video games.
    It would be cool if we could get a thread and conversation going about pick ups.
     
    As for myself i kind off went on a bargain hunting spree for current gen games the past week orso, some games i really wanted to play but diden't want to pay full price and a few i toke a chance on because they looked interesting. Grid legends is the only game i paid full price for. I'm normally more of a collector for the older stuff but you'll find that out pretty soon. I've got about 50 more games i picked up the past few weeks just waiting on a few more packages to post those.

    Yaramaki got a reaction from killamch89 in Sony vs. Microsoft   
    Both have their good and bad sides, sony has always been master in getting the maximum result out of their competiters mistakes, they won 2 generations that way. They already won with the ps4 before it even launched since microsoft fucked the launch of the xbox one so bad it hurts my eyes when i think about it.
    I've always been more of an xbox guy then a playstation fan, surely i like both but if i can play a game on xbox that's where i will play it. This has nothing to do with being a fanboy.
    The original xbox was the first console i bought on launch day with my own money i saved up for months ahead, had to go trough hell and back to get that money haha. Since It only felt the logic thing to do after the dreamcast died and there were so many sega exclusives on the og xbox it made sense for me to get it. Ever Since then i stuck around with xbox being my platform of choice. Does it really matter no because i end up buying both xbox and playstation consoles anyway

    Yaramaki got a reaction from killamch89 in Games where you have to take care of your character's health   
    Kingdom come deliverance forces you to eat, not only that but food can get spoiled over time and your character will remind you when they are hungry. You will here the phrase i'm feeling kinda hungry quite often especially early game. It's a game everybody into rpg's and medieval period atleast should have played once.
    Another game i can vaguely remember altough i don't like bringing it up is shenmue 3 i believe your health is going down if you haven't eaten in a while or when you were involved in a fight health doesen't automaticly recover. But the less said about shenmue 3, the better.
    Think Far cry primal (god who remembers that game) also had something similair that you coulden't acess the snowy mountains if you diden't have a certain clothing item or you would freeze to death. Same with Biomutant where you had to obtain a special suit first before you could enter a toxic area.
    I think Tamagotchi should be worth mentioning, since every kid in the late 90 ies had one of these. Man how many times mine died 😄
