It's become more of a handheld franchise. Long live the DS!

My kids have a 3ds, but I don't get to play with it much.
I do have a hacked psp, where I used to play the gba version of HM, but don't know where I've put it since December.

The DS is cheap as dirt, I think the 3DS is getting there if it isn't already. It's a great little RPG machine if you're into that sort of thing: Etrian Odyssey series, a bunch of Shin Megami Tensei titles, Dark Spire, 3 or 4 Dragon Quest games, and of course a slew of farming titles.

I did start playing Final Fantasy Tactics A2 on my Note 5 with a DS emulator.
With the spen it's pretty close to the real thing.
Might go looking around for some roms now.

I love my 3ds. Final Fantasy Explorers is a lot of fun!

Stardew valley.. should I give it a try?

Yes. Just do it.
That game has me in a trance when I start it. What do you mean I have 15 hours logged, Steam? That can't be right. I haven't even harvested the pumpkins yet!

I've got a few DS roms that I play with OpenEmu. If you like side-scrolling beat-em-ups/hack n' slash, I highly recommend getting the Code Of Princess rom. The visuals are incredibly detailed, so almost impossible to play on a tiny screen.

A2 was shit compared to the original one.

I'm playing Wolfenstein: The New Order which has voice commands on PS4 and it had trouble understanding the command 'handgun' to draw the pistol ('pistol' would've made more sense) until I had the bright idea of saying it in my best American accent.

i really enjoyed new order & old blood....proper old school fun

loved the old skool wolfie levels as well in the dream sequences...

playing teslagrad and ac chronicles china atm, resisting spending pennies on re 0 in the psn sale....

Wolfenstein is so old school it took me many goes and deaths to get rid of new school habits. Now I'm tearing shit up.

aye, once it clicks its brilliant...we need more games like it....

Since we dont have thread, or rather we do but nobody cares, I will drop it here as usual.

Do we really need game testers?

Obvious Test Problems: Tests in which the relationship between cause and effect is obvious to all

Complicated Test Problems: Tests in which the relationship between cause and effect requires analysis or some other form of investigation and/or the application of expert knowledge

Complex Test Problems: Tests in which the relationship between cause and effect can only be perceived in retrospect, but not in advance

So a game producer should have no problems solving an obvious test problem, and a game developer should have no problems solving a complicated test problem, but it is my belief that a game tester is better suited for solving complex test problems due to their specific core competence.

The quote is just a bite as the article provides context, however, let me note two things.

1. I am not sure its such a good idea to ask tester if testers are needed ;) but more importantly,

2. No team of testers developer can realistically employ, can measure up against peer-review or many users with or without pre-defined competencies. As I like to say, cant fool players as they will sooner or later find strengths and weaknesses of a system, which is the point of testing.

In this sense, I do not think testers are needed, what is needed is peer-reviewed or alphas/betas/early access with appropriate feedback control/mechanism and I suspect the only problem with this is lets say business/marketing model/approach.

Playing Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen.

Does it play anything like FIFA? I been tempted long time to try.

Not playing but .. see for yourself:

Black Desert Nude Mod - https://www.undertow.club/threads/black ... -mod.8469/

(reveal spoiler)

Black Desert is MMO. How old are those grils?

No. It's a ton times better than FIFA. Instead of trying to control a team you're a player on a team for a start. This means the game takes real skillz and not just knowing the points on the pitch you can score goals from. This makes scoring goals a lot more satisfying and also makes you failures more visceral as you can actually feel bad for hitting a shot wide or what have you.

Wholly recommended.
