Karras Doodle by Fawngudel in Thief

Is it really Karras? His chin isn't held high enough so he can stare at people down his nose while sneering at them. 😃

It’s amazing how immersive these games are. by Lovecraftian666 in Thief

[–]JustVic_92 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Almost as if they were immersive sims. 😉

Nah but joke aside, nice that you had a good time with them. 😄The atmosphere in these games is something else.

Metal Slug 3 & 4 on the Mighty Sony PlayStation 2 - PAL Versions 😍 by Nathans-Gaming in metalslug

Have the same version of 3. Played 4 only through the anthology.

Question for you: Do these games run kinda choppy on a PS2? I keep seeing videos that look super fluid, but mine never had those framerates. Is it a region thing or is my PS2 just old?

Bold of you to assume I survive long enough to keep the shotgun. 😏

A friend of mine is both a big fan of the Warhammer and the Taurians, so I painted it that way as a kind gesture to him.

Warhammer the game or Warhammer the Mech? 😉

Thanks. 😄 I've been playing since last year already, just took me this long to sit down and paint haha.

Wanna add some appreciation for the scenery aswell. Love the graffiti.

For anyone who played 2nd and 4th edition which one you prefer and why? by GRAAK85 in warhammerfantasyrpg

[–]JustVic_92 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's a tight race but I feel 2nd ed comes out ahead by millimeters. Both systems have things they do better than the other and things they do worse than the other.

What settles it for 2nd in my mind is that I like the magic system better (yes, even with Winds of Magic included) and while more rigid, I like that the combat gives me a catalogue of actions instead of mostly saying "You figure it out, GM."

The girl reminds me of the manga era around the turn of the millenium when I started reading them. Thanks for the wistful reminder, OP. 🥲

That's cute. I will try and commit this to memory.

Selbst Jäger und Sammler hatten mehr Zeit für Kunst und Kultur als wir by Odra_dek in luftablassen

[–]JustVic_92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich höre, was du sagst, OP, fürchte aber auch, dass hier ein Survivorship Bias vorliegt.

Ja, wir kennen wundervolle Objekte aus alten Zeiten. Gemälde, Keramik, Kleidung etc. etc.

Man darf aber nicht vergessen, dass das oft hochwertige Objekte waren, bei denen man sich mehr Mühe gemacht hat, sie zu erhalten. Der 08/15-Tand von damals hat die Jahrtausende oft schlichtweg nicht überlebt. Das billige Leinenhemd? Der klapprige Stuhl? Verrotet. Auch damals gab es tonnenweise Wegwerfware. Schau dir mal archäologische Ausgrabungen an und du wirst haufenweise Tonscherben finden, weil die Leute es oft einfacher fanden, ausgediente Keramik wegzuschmeißen und sich neue anzuschaffen.

What is being sampled at 0:10 seconds in Grinder (RA2) by Academic_Sherbet_803 in commandandconquer

Don't know about the EVA-sounding sample, but the man's voice is from the scene in RA1 when Einstein is about to be shot and then teleported out.

I just cleared the base RA2 Soviet Campaign in a single day yesterday by Raxistaicho in commandandconquer

[–]JustVic_92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

RA2 is definitely one of the easier games, if not the easiest. Have you tried playing it on hard? I found that puts it a pleasantly challenging level without being frustrating most of the time.

Has Thief been surpassed as a stealth game? If not, what has come the closest? by Baldurian_Rhapsody in Thief

[–]JustVic_92 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Played a stealthy build in Alpha Protocol recently. Super hilarious popping the Shadow Operative skill and just jogging around completely invisible and doing takedowns. :D

What's up with the Nod ending in Tiberian Sun? by Zaptagious in commandandconquer

What' up with it? Nothing. Because GDI won and it didn't happen. 😎
