Power fantasy is a fine spice now and then, though I prefer it in JRPG form. Well, I'd hope it doesn't just play out as The Adventures of Chad. I'm expecting there are like, Hero descendants who still recognize the Maou's power and try to bully or
cull him, resulting in everyone learning a nice lesson about Not Being Beholden To One's Birth
If it were up to me, maybe MC reaches the top and get bored with life again and suicides again and again, trapping himself in a gamer dopamine loop of "Achievement"…

>>173461I contend that true "power fantasy" has not been fully explored outside of xianxia and rationalist fiction which are not that good. Usually a powerful protagonist is stupid or pathetic to balance out their strength, or has to earn their power through perfunctory non-trials for the sake of narrative convention when you might as well give it to them for free. My favourite anime Death Note is the only one I can think of which isn't like this.
>I'm expecting there are like, Hero descendants who still recognize the Maou's power and try to bully or cull him, resulting in everyone learning a nice lesson about Not Being Beholden To One's BirthThat's what will probably happen yeah.
>Or push things into the DLsite trenches with a mid-season perspective swap to one of the heroine's old sweethearts who was traumatized by having some OP bastard come out of nowhere to swipe his girl!They carefully made the MC her only childhood friend don't worry.
No.173468
>>173466Yeah, Death Note is really good since it can bake the normie reaction to the wannabe overman into the whole plot and drama.
But you're right that it's kind of a gap that deserves filling…
Code Geass is almost there, but the plot is filled with stupid Batman asspull moments and convenient conceit.
Paul Atreides from Dune, maybe. I only ever read 'Dune' so the division of myth from outcome is probably expanded more later.
Ender's Game? He's sort of young to fathom the consequences of his actions there

No.173470
>>173468Yeah Code Geass sucked, the premise and aesthetics look very cool but the way everything plays out is so dumb. Code Ment is better unironically.
I haven't read Dune. Sci-fi tends not to be as character-focused, but Ender's Game is a good example, I forgot how much I liked that book.
Thinking some more, the trope might be more of a moral thing at its core where characters have to make JUST and FAIR use of the supernatural gifts which they DESERVED otherwise audiences will burst into tears. There are certainly more works already in existence which break from moral convention in other ways, but I think power fantasy still has unrealised potential for unique stories
No.173471
And when the protagonist is a random loser, the implication is that the audience (who identify as random losers) consider themselves to deserve power since they're just guys doing their best at life and it's their turn. But this trope is considered to be morally subversive by their false consciousness

Code Geass is the third major retelling of the original Gundam except this time, it's from more of a Char point of view (Lelouch isn't a perfect Char since they split him into two characters). Since I brought it up, the other two retellings of Gundam were Metal Armor Dragonar which is a perfectly okay show and Gundam SEED which can be very unintentionally funny.

Worm/Twig/Pact are adjacent and I recommend them but they're very long. They're separate stories by the same author so can be read in any order, Pact is the shortest but still ~1M words.
Mother of Learning is also adjacent and very long, pretty good time loop story with the best magic system ever.
Cradle isn't rationalist at all it's more like xianxia for White people, it's also… very long… and I haven't got that far into it yet, but I like it.

>>173447I like dry encyclopedic flavor text when the information is novel (meaning comparatively unknown- which this kind of falls into) and gently guides the player into slightly headier thematic territory through insinuation. Now, the latter, I can't imagine being possible with tampons and even if that was the intent, I think it'd be insufferable.
When it comes to puzzles- say you need to melt the wax on the tampon- I think it's better for the player to brute force it and then look it up.
I've often thought about adventure games that punish the player for bruteforcing puzzles.
I don't know why games, as an artform, seem so averse to edification for adults save for, obviously, puzzles, some VNs and "rollgame expects you to get better at rolling." The player getting better at the game feels like a lost game design tenet. The player getting better at abstract s
culls through the structure of a game is something that nobody ever seemed to pay much attention to (for adults and ignoring "s

ぶっちゃけ I think GPT is being a bit too charitable and I'd say MoL is "passable" in the character department, side characters do have an impressive amount of depth but a lot of them get forgotten by the narrative because there's so many characters and the story spends most of its time focusing on cool magic worldbuilding shit (which is worth reading for).

d00med>>173471>But this trope is considered to be morally subversive by their false consciousnessUh… No? Also, false consciousness? Is the implication of the alternative that the power fantasy character is automatically justified because of their might?
All I can think of when I think of "power fantasy" is how much I hate Batman. Literally what does it matter if he's "broken", or works really hard, or "is flawed" (that legitimately never really matter 99% of the time as opposed to Light's flaws not mattering TO HIM)
You can complain about
>>173470>the trope might be more of a moral thing at its core where characters have to make JUST and FAIR use of the supernatural gifts which they DESERVED otherwise audiences will burst into tears.but at the end of the day, it's still a power fantasy. Everything around nu-Batman is predicated around this all-consuming power fantasy. And at that point, why care about all the limp and superfluous rationalizations for why the power fantasy is okay when it's ultimately still a power fantasy? It's such an odd thing to be preoccupied with when the problem is that that shit DOESN'T MATTER and Batman may not have powers but he can always think three steps ahead of God. And of course, the writing is dumb.
There are countless stories where the character flaws of the protagonists are more or less irrelevant to the story, forgive me for invoking Stah Wahs. Most mystery legacy characters? These are more or less power fantasies.
Sure, we're also complaining about bad power fantasies. But it's incredibly hard to write an exceptional character (which manifests itself in a vast intellect) well.
What do you unironically gain from making a character a literally perfect power fantasy? A flaw is not something you just stick on a character- it has a push and a pull. A perfect hero/villain is a less distinct version of an imperfect one because, of course, you are limited to "right" things and "rights" and "wrongs" combined are ultimately more than the sum of their parts. A perfect person is funny as a gag but what stories are we missing out on that require the Ubermensch to not be flawed? It certainly can't be character-focused and if it's the Ubermensch driving the plot, it'd feel tedious, if he's reactive then the story would be better suited for a traditional protagonist with the pushes and pulls that come from flaws. These are broad statements but I can't see how they'd be untrue without clear counter-examples.
This is rambling but I'm baffled by this entire line of conversation.

>Is the implication of the alternative that the power fantasy character is automatically justified because of their might?No, just that they're beyond moral judgment and can do what they want.

Mom surprised me with a trip to a pinball and arcade place.
The
classic and frankly quite good Simpsons pinball machine was DOWN while the South Park and Family Guy one were up and running.
Total xillennial FAILURE, complete zillennial EPIC WIN.
This arcade's shitstomper is JEK which I imagine is either some really shitty abbreviation for a full-name or some troid fake name for REASONS. I have a vested interest in taking them down in at least one game.
I also saw a guy with a shirt that said "Oh My God! Bourbon Street
culled Kenny!" which is probably the shittiest shirt I'd wear out of irony (and I would probably not wear anything else out of pure irony) because I found it really funny.

>>173617This has nothing to do with pinball (I'm not sure how that could fit into your idea even) but one of the best games I played that sort of sounds similar is a custom 4p coop Battle for Wesnoth map where you have to fight off waves of enemies. Unique to this map are peasant units that can spend gold to alter the terrain, so you would build castles and moats enclosing farmland and villages in the middle and make sure nothing got through the walls. Also you could connect together castles with your teammates to allow them more space to recruit and there were interesting strategies where you could send out small parties to control other parts of the map.
https://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?t=27751The other most popular coop map was "World Conquest" where there was a small community of people who played on 3p nightmare difficulty and you have to abuse terrain and the few boons you get against enemies with extremely unfair gold income that spam upgraded units to rush you, I've won the first map before but successive maps get harder and harder and there's a lot of RNG in the map generation.
https://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php?t=38308I think strategy games are really fun and underexplored when it's asymmetric and/or coop. Competitive 1v1 is boring and diplomacy-type free for all where you have to make alliances is even worse (why WW2 was awkwaaard)

>>173920If it keeps the same playtime as Diablo, then it's only going to reinforce my heuristic game design truism that any game whose central "gameiness" is resource management either finds that resource management eventually becomes irrelevant (say, at the 40% mark which in an infinitely scaling game is uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh….) or leads to a sudden death spiral- which isn't really a death spiral, it's just an instantaneous deathtouch out of the blue.
For example, 1)My healing comes from my bread which come from my mana fruits which come from my blood-juicer which uses my health for fruits. Any resource I accumulate past this is just a bonus because I've established such a strong loop.
2) Shit, I didn't have an eggplant for the eggplant-
SMURFER so I just immediately die.
I'm not exactly speaking from experience, more from just my own brainstorming. "Resource management" sounds great on paper but loops are almost always "needed" because otherwise, decision-making is a crapshoot. Multifunctionality diminishes this but not completely; ideally, you'd have overlap so it's a choice between two resources but that makes the risk-reward less nebulous and then choice is usually fairly obvious. Then you have to wonder how much RNG is acceptable for both "strategy" and "tactics" to be available.
None of this is necessarily a problem and people can very well still enjoy it though it is a niche (and the mainstream option is roguelites which are more luck-中庸 but require less dedication.) I just don't know if "resource management" is its best possible self in games or if there's some fundamental design decisions that need to be solidified or readdressed.
I'm not a dungeon-crawler/Shirenhead so take this with a massive grain of salt.

The whole point is that everything goes in the inventory, so you are constantly balancing the risk/reward of everything in the game. Roguelikes are fundamentally "what if we put D&D in the computer," you are meant to take risks and think creatively and occasionally worry about starving to death or dying to falling boulders.

>>174007Funny thing is, Indians used to be considered a model minority because they came in successive waves, with the best ones arriving earlier.
First you had the educated British-trained military/administrative class of the "martial races" that left because there was no place for them in the new India and spent years getting bounced around the declining empire, arriving with stories to tell about how they were a cop in Malaya or something
Then you had the guys with legitimate-looking diplomas, usually high caste hindu or muslim, who would become doctors or run a corner store (basically Apu from The Simpsons, except dealing drugs under the counter) who would eventually bring in more lower-caste migrants so they they could have their own little fiefdom of slaves to lord over
Then you had the scammer techjeets in the 90s who initially were hired to work on Y2K upgrades before Silicon Valley realized they could use them to undercut everyone's wages, once they reached a critical mass in a company they would stock any department they had control over with other Indians and fire everyone else, and basically took over the phone fraud industry where the Nigerians left off.
Now we're getting the unlicensed truck driver jeets who get brought to the west as scab labor by left-wing politicians, who openly hate white people, shit on the highway, and

Not having an undo function would be less unforgivable if the puzzles didn't have moving enemies which
wwalk back and forth autonomously or move towards the player. I consider this category of Sokoban mechanic to be bad puzzle design because the mechanics make solutions difficult/unfeasible to calculate at a glance, but it was handled alright in Leaf's Odyssey with better puzzles that test specific behaviours. Normally these levels would still be playable by making up for calculation with trial and error ("oh the enemy is 1 square ahead of where I want, let me undo a few moves"), but without undo it becomes especially frustrating

I'm legitimately unsure if the era of

I know what the one person who will respond to this will say and I'm preemptively dismissing it. I just wish literally anyone else would try to think about it for a second because I'm obviously too young to know for sure. I'm leaning slightly towards option 2 because of Yahtzee.

Game idea: 3D multiplayer social deduction game with time travel.
There are time machines which are large boxes which you can enter and leave. The way time travel works is that when you travel, you disappear from the box in the present and reappear in the past. While you're in the past you aren't allowed to be seen by anyone including your past self, or change the world in a way that would alter any observation made by any other player in the past (e.g you can't leave a closed door open if someone else sees it later). If anything like that were to happen, your time travel attempt fails, and you return to the present (as if you were idling inside the time machine for the elapsed time). If the time travel attempt is successful, I'm not sure what should happen, but you need to sync back up with the present time, so either you get teleported back to the time machine after the time is up, or you have to enter it again to wait until (skip forward to) the present time (more elegant but doesn't quite make sense because it's only the game abstraction forcing you to wait inside the time machine, and might be too restrictive or confusing?).
To prevent observations from being too restrictive, there are mechanics such as smoke grenades, tear gas grenades, blindness, and invisibility. You can also intentionally blind yourself at any time with a blindfold to make time travel easier. I think collisions can be handled with a "sense of touch" which is a small radius around you in addition to the basic sight cone. You can poison people in the past without their knowledge causing them to die later. There are tasks you have to do similar to Among Us to force the players to split up, otherwise everyone would just group and the culprit couldn't do anything. There would be a lot of darkness, locked doors, etc.
The one biggest mechanical problem I can think of: if your time travel attempt fails, all changes you made in the world are reverted, but you retain the information you learned while time traveling. You would get a strong hint that someone was nearby if your attempt fails, and if it succeeds you obviously know no one was nearby. It seems kind of anti-fun and too powerful if townies time travel and camp to investigate whether or not a room was accessed. It's potentially balanced by the fact that you're disabled in the present while you travel to the past (maybe they could be culled inside the time machine?), but maybe it should only be the culprit who can time travel.
The meta strategy would be to constantly turn around looking in every direction while you're in a hallway, but I think that's funny and there would still be tasks that require you to lock your vision. I can imagine some cool strategies like:
- Poisoning someone in the past 中庸 on where they tell you later on they were completing a task
- Intentionally creating disturbances to give your future self opportunity
- Observing/not observing certain things to control what can be changed later on
- Lying as town about your location to protect yourself from time travel
Not even the basic mechanics of this really complex idea are complete and I need to work on an actual game next year anyway so I'll dump it here and move on. Other ideas:
- When you travel back in time, time is accelerated by 2x or something until you catch back up with the present, instead of warping you or forcing you to return to the time machine.
- Audio observations as well as sight (make loud noises to disguise machine/door sounds?), I think the game has to have audio in general so maybe this would have to be added for consistency even though it might be a bit too complex, maybe a custom system that assumes walls/closed doors are soundproof and has Minecraft-style text cues
- Future travel, but there's no way to invalidate the present actions of regular players later on, so maybe the future travel would be pending and can later be invalidated instead? To avoid getting invalidated, you would probably have to blind yourself in the future, but players could still touch you to mess up your plans. Failed future travels couldn't be rolled back like how failed past travels are, because what if you travel to the future, lock a door, then get discovered. Someone could have tried to open the locked door before the game can know that the future travel was invalidated. Maybe it just doesn't roll back? This is illogical/inconsistent though
- Causal loops (hidden mechanic, allow temporal paradoxes), this would mean that (for instance) a player trapped in a locked room can close their eyes/ears and blindly act out a series of inputs to wwalk through the locked(?) door, enter a time machine, travel to the past (before they walked through the door, but after they tested it and observed it was locked (player could knock on the door to signal when to unlock)) and unlock the door. I think I could code this, but I'm not sure if it would work in 3D, at least every item would have to work on proximity with a single interact key. Also, this wouldn't work if the sense of touch applies to walls, and is generally illogical/inconsistent. I think while blinded the player should be able to see a wireframe of the surrounding rooms that doesn't show doors or other players, and when they try to wwalk through a closed door, a shadow of the player splits off and walks through the door as if it were open (but the camera remains fixed from the perspective of the last observed reality). Maybe that's not a good idea though, since do the shadows split 2x repeatedly if they wwalk back and forth through a door, since it could be opened or closed at any moment? Those realities actually have to be simulated, it's not just a visual aid. This kind of loop could also be performed with future+present rather than present+past, if future travel is allowed
- Social mechanics and the 3D MiSide text style since people might get bored if half the players are dead or in the past, and the game might not be robust enough to be more than a casual sandbox
- Tasks which require solving time travel puzzles to complete efficiently (e.g. requires two people pressing buttons, requires being inside the room with the time travel machine while it is locked from the outside)

Preferring SMT to Persona doesn't make you a Redditor but being smug about SMT's OBVIOUS superiority to Persona because of le Matador does make you a /v/tard which is basically a Redditor. I really wonder about what mainline SMT loyalists want out of a game (some might say "dungeon crawling" and that's… baffling) but it's clear that Persona fans want characters (waifus.) That being said, Persona is more Reddit so, uh.
Again, I generally don't think there's a real answer to "What do Megaten fans want?" and that vexes me at night and which is why I decided to throw a bunch of THEORY at the basics.

No.174502
>>174501It's just not very holistic and doesn't seem to play to the uniqueness of it all (only partially.) I never implied disdain, it's just confusing because my hypothetical SMThead has antipathy towards the writing of Persona games (3-5) yet is completely ambivalent towards the writing of his own series. Megaten fans as a whole not having a clear desire beyond dungeon crawling is confusing because the mechanics for every subseries are unique. As a series, it has very little identity beyond the religious stuff so that's why I think my fixation is slightly more objective and rational (and should be concentrated in SMT specifically)

To me, platformers are the most vexing genre. I've long been thinking about how to create a real trailblazer that has both variability and genuine value expressed through level design (so installations aren't immediately undermined by a modding scene.) The toolbox approach I've had seems almost completely counterintuitive to the latter, however. The toolbox approach most recently has cannibalized level design completely in my most recent brainstorming.
There's stuff like Ice Climbers and Mr. Driller that I think have novel value but I'm not sure how to extrapolate them further. Maybe arcadey games should just stay arcadey like QBert and Pacman. I wish we had a real Pachead here because that's something that's seemed to have 5 or so attempts to Frankenstein it.

My take is that they should have kept the devil summoner series alive as the "hard coar dungeon crawlan' character driven story" series to appease the boomers (me) while the main series is all weird and experimental. I really do not mind anything the new series is doing as long as its on the assumption that the next game is going to be equally weird and experimental, but 5 really felt like it was retreading a lot of ground (what if 4F's plot in a rip-off of 3's setting) and it sold really well so I'm kind of worried.

It's unironically smudged between P1 and P2 which are fairly similar games (yes, I count IS and EP as one) and P4 and P5 which are roughly similar games. 3 has traits of both and again, SMT.

Me, personally, I've "devoted" myself to creating a fictional setting with fictional religions with the very existence of the demon/deity/God/whatever summoning being the central theological concern of the first game that affects the religions from that point on and the routes would be varying degrees of their legitimacy coming from different religions.
After that, I considered a lot of historical religious schisms to replicate in a fictional setting which the demons (which are sort of a monolith) abuse by either claiming legitimacy or denying their own "truthfulness" but acknowledging their usefulness and what religions they would manifest as and what alignment they are ("these representations are real" vs. "useful" vs. "get rid of them") would change with each game.
This is all a tremendous amount of work and I obviously haven't done very much at all regarding it.
But ultimately, it's what I wish SMT was- but it shouldn't be that. I realize that real world religious traditions and their connotations are too multifaceted to fit into the SMT context and so the best thing to do is to use allegory. I don't know what SMT should actually be to get the most out of its religious imagery, unironically. I say what I want selfishly even though I know that (like current SMT), it would be an imperfect model with oversights if we were to just push comparative religions to the forefront of every game. I would like it more but only so far as it allows me to brainstorm an even better version of it- it eases that for me.

One of the few actually smart things Northernlion said was that all "hard" games these days are basically just trickshot simulator. The thing is "hard," but there is basically no punishment for failure, so you just keep trying until you happen to get it and then you freak out and clap like a seal because you did the super hard thing you did it!!!, and then you go through that process again and again until the credits roll
