this is a town in videogames
This is a town in videogames
im implying things
Well smartass what would (you) call it then?
Hamlet
OP wanted it to have rows of unenterable houses to walk past slowly every time you leave.
Three houses
Why does Pokemon always start out in a sheltered village, with very little to do?
Hiking checkpoint. Outpost. Slum. Bunch of shacks in the wood.
I've seen rest stops bigger than this.
the third building is not a house
What do they eat?
they hunt pidgeys
back in my day we understood that things were representative of other things and not literally the whole thing. I guess taking too much HRT causes you to go retarded, OP, sorry about that.
B2W2 didn't.
The sprawling capital of a great kingdom.
LE B2W2
Total BORTnova genocide!!!
who hurt you sweaty
To get you moving forward. It's to simulate how your hometown feels to you, you already know everything about it and you should be excited to see more. That's my thought anyways, it's all jewish nonsense because your home town is infinitely better than any other town on earth.
What happens if you live in the blue district but paint your roof yellow?
3 builds is representative of 3 buildings. What am I supposed to do, imagine there are 4 buildings? 5 buildings? How many buildings does 3 buildings represent? What is the conversion rate of 3 buildings to imaginary buildings?
eviction
orbital lasers fry your house
Let me guess you need more?
where do the fat guy, the girl telling you about sign posts, and oak's aides live you stupid shit?
So I'm supposed to imagine buildings for every character too? Is it an imaginary building for every real building, and also an imaginary building for every character?
Am I supposed to imagine imaginary characters as well? How many imaginary characters per imaginary building that isn't already an imaginary building I imagined for a real character?
I want what Ash Ketchum had.
I wanna see Hu-Oh on my first day out of the house. Not sit around in a town with zilch to do. I think Pokemon Platinum has a legendary during its intro sequence.
Have you literally played an RPG ever prior to Pokemon? You can't actually be this fucking retarded.
Technology is blowing me away
*cums*
dr. oak's harem
That's how the Defias started.
mage quarter was always so cool but fucking empty
Imagine that I did.
Anal rape
mustard gas
Haha So funny and clever, anon.
This shit came out the same year as Daggerfall, no excuses.
as far as video game cities go, this isn't bad for a 2004 game
Simplicity is a lost art.
Compare this to slop like Cyberpunk
Based based based!
Yes I know
playing Breath of the Wild
Hyped to get to the cities that survived Calamity, particularly Hateno, which is hyped up to being the last bastion for Hylians
mfw they all make Whiterun look like New York City
Take me back to the Cloud District
procedurally generated slop vs game on a handheld console that runs on AA batteries
Let me guess, you need more?
B2W2
lol trashnova
what would you call this city?
Based
I kneel, king
Traders camp.
Though these places tend to evolve into real cities.
They eat Tangelas
>procedurally generated
Make a city too small, it looks dumb and feels retarded
Make a city too large, it is underdeveloped and a chore to play
Very delicate balance. Even if you take into account that gameplay wise the world is "scaled" compared to the in lore size, but that requires triple digit IQ.
You have to build the city around gameplay first and then figure out how to make it believe for the world around it, but that takes effort.
One way to cheese it is to have a separate map for the city and a separate map for the country side or other regions, but then the world feels disjointed.
This shit came out the same year as Daggerfall
Oh wow the same shit over and over again, Daggerfall is mindless garbage
only game in history to have an actual city
Imagine being this autistic
best way to do it IMO is to have select portions of any city/settlement be explorable, with the rest of the "real" space occupying the out of bounds visuals/skybox
trvth nvke
This shit came out the same year as Daggerfall
On the original Gameboy?
Shes referring to your killer mustache.
thanks.
you also get banned on Anon Babble if you trash gen 5. biased jannies, they don't do anything for the other gens
you also get banned on Anon Babble if you trash gen 5. biased jannies,
What a load of shit, there are anit gen 5 threads all the time
Jokes on them I can evade
That works if it is a zone you travel to, can't fit it into a overworld.
Breaking up the overworld into independent zones might be not be the best solution, as there is an inherent desire for a seamless world. but zones allow better scaling while at the same time cutting out pure filler that would be needed to make two distant cities seem distant and not next to one another.
Or loads of fog, like San Andreas had.
Another way would be to do some really wacky world rendering where as you approach a city it "pops" out and as you get further away it shrinks.
Might work for a very stylized game.
and they get banned/purged. gen 5 deserves the hate
That isn't a town. That is a hamlet
they don't
Dumb BORTfaggot!
Yeah it's a video game. So what?
Pallet town, home...
and they get banned/purged
wow spamming shitty Anon Babble tier (yes get the irony of saying that here) console war troll threads sometimes get you banned
gen 5 deserves the hate
You people honestly deserve the nu-pokemon games, you idiots can't even decide what it is you actually want
Not like that, chud
Why is only nintendo allowed to get away with this?
try to imagine an apple without killing yourself
you do realize that there are place irl that have town in the name even though they are not.
sometimes due to them being an actual town in the past or when it was established they aspired to be one so called it so.
I wish I lived in a rural place.
So what?!??!?? What about muh autisms! Muh autisms are triggered! I have over nine thousand autisms and they're all triggered! Things being unrealistic triggers muh autisms! Error! Does not compute! Gotta watch Wapner! Muh autisms!
Pokemon
can't you catch a glimpse of Ho-Oh pretty early in G/S/C?
or maybe it was just the tower he's in?
been a while
Shittybum
There is a not unrealistic chance of that being a real town name in this cunt.
If only Oblivion didn't age so poorly - it was peak comfy and joinable organizations offered much, MUCH more things to do than this slop.
How do you function?
You think the 20 minutes it takes to cross a map in any modern open world game is indicative for the literal size of whatever fantasy nation is in there?
4 niggas in a row
2 houses in a row
I see no issue
Yes, in Slopemon. These games were never good.
I can’t unsee that this has an identical layout to a Disney park.
Back when you were born, did your imagination come out separately? Or was it never included with that purchase?
I don't really remember HGSS Kanto. Anyone else like this?
I guess I ran straight through it and didn't bother to remember it.
if you think about this from the character's perspective, the lab's facing away from the other two buildings for no reason. I would put the door on either the west or the north side of it.
Open world games will never recover from game devs not having irl exploring knowledge apart from theme parks
Home owners' association fines you.
Greatest city in all of Azeroth
Has less than 100 houses
lmaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
Hey, that's not fair! A Disney park is a lot cheaper than World of Warcraft!
DOHOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO!
That's a trading outpost for nomadic tribes.
yet it feels dead
Daggerfall literally was procgen sprinkling repeat assets around. Just because they shipped the game with a fixed seed doesn't mean they handmade the world
Lord of the Rings Online somewhat strayed from this pitfall, but Tolkien stuff doesn't appeal to everyone.
I will now play your game
Probably incestous too
One of my ideas for a game is a JRPG taking place in a realistically-sized town, with hundreds of enterable buildings and thousands of NPCs inside of them.
But I don't think that would, you know, be good. However fun it might be in concept, it seems like something where the player would become bored of it after going into a few dozen houses, and would never explore every nook and cranny.
Do you guys want pre-modern RPG games to have settlements that have realistic proportions?
you can use some mods to make it look more modern without going into hire this man territory
just don't touch enbs
Daisy's ass
comfy
city
That's a temporary trading encampment thoughbeitever.
that's pokemon, not real videogames
what does that imply?
Pokemon is baby shit, it's not a serious video game. We gamers have grown up and we want ART. Proper cinematic sequences, carefully crafted setpieces, Hollywood actors... Tendies are embarrassing.
still better than wasting literally 30 minutes in random battles genociding the entire zubat population
True, ugh... just imagining 30 straight minutes of actual gameplay... Tendie manchildren are stuck in the 90s. Thankfully we have real games made for adults now.
This dude is literally the "how are you supposed to know Mario can jump into paintings" of Pokemon.
not real videogames
It's a perfect fit for Anon Babble then
Twinleaf town, home.
youtube.com
that in real videogames there are real towns
I'll have to replay to see..
It's a JRPG trope
Bro doesn't into abstractions omegalul
Is that Isekai, again?
No, it has nothing to do with Isekai, it's just how usually JRPGs have scaling, meaning, it starts slow and ends big (where the killing god meme comes from)
It's the principle of abstraction.
So I'm supposed to imagine buildings for every character too?
Yes, you imagine there are buildings in the background that don't show up because they don't fucking matter. Sure, maybe Daggerfall is good at realism. There's probably still a limit to it. Maybe they don't show every plate but you know the npcs eat food.
Is there a term for people born without an imagination
aphantasia
Hylic
Shitskin
Lobotomite
That should have a name...!
Yellow Paint is the funniest meme of 2024
Starting a new game of Platinum on a winter night
slums have only 3 houses
Thank you for confirming your retardation
HoA will certainly not like it
Based as fuck. I'm playing through X version for the first time now, definitely wanna replay Plat next. Might do a Cute Charm run.
Yes please
Neighborhood. Less than that even
