Been recently getting back into Forum Board Let's Play, The one I've been reading brought me back to the days when I would read creepypastas late at night. This is why I love Forum Boards, never would get this type of experience anywhere else.

Regardless of wether it was a forum or not it's cool to read through written LPs, it's a neat way for someone to talk about the game they're passionate about and I enjoy it as a way of reading how people feel about the games they're playing.
That's not to say I think streaming is an awful medium but if I feel like reading about the game it's a very relaxing option.
Kinda like for example when someone did solo runs of Final Fantasy 5 with every job and they kinda got in detail on how every job fared for such a thing, was a really neat read.

I always loved reading LPs, It was always a fun and centralized place where you could see discuss about a certain topic and where many people who are going into it blind also discuss theories with each other.
Streaming to me is super boring to watch, unless you have a lot of charisma, they usually have so much fluff or downtime I eventually lose interest.
That's what I love about them, Someone out there would make a giant thread about something because they felt bored or they were passionate. You can go into so much detail with forums and even explain the magic behind it.

I mean usually i just have a stream (vod) for background noise and, occasionally at smaller channels, just sit around to chill and chat.

What makes LPs on forums or sites great is that they are in a good readable format, are always accessible because its easier to read stuff than watch it and are very easily archived- good luck finding someones opinions on a game when its buried under a discord channel or twitter wall (the latter doesn't even properly allow searching!!)
Of course though, Discord has screensharing, which is a big boon if you just want to show something to friends, and I don't think thats particularily a bad thing.

:toroko2: It is still so surprising to see so many members on a forum board, even after so many years.

At least you guys are keeping up the forum board, I've seen so many dead forums it's finally good for a change to see members still active

Hey, even though I never spoke to you. Or never knew who you were. Thank You. I hope wherever you are, You are doing well. Even though you are a memory of when the site was once well known and popular, your legacy lives on with the elders who refuse to let this site die. Thank You

FML I fucked up the best ending in waterway cabin after not playing this game in years.

Yeah I'm curious how people first realized that the Best Ending exists and how to do it. I only knew from guides.
I know there's the hint in the little room before the Doctor fight and the red line in Labyrinth but that feels real minimal.

My first playthrough I looked at guides, learned about the third ending, realize I've fucked everything up, and was only on the path to the second ending. Like what the heck? Why put such a huge emphasis on how to get there if i'm halfway through the game? (Like, I think I was already at the plantation at the time). I even thought I was doing everything right (trade polar star with machine gun, jump to professor booster's aid). I can make a large paragraph about why the third ending isn't as "best" as it is compared to the second ending, but I digress.

This also reminds me of when I played CS3D (my introduction to Cave Story), got to the Outer Wall, and didn't realize I was supposed to climb up. I never progressed further on that game.
That's not on Pixel though; I'm just a dumbass.

I would be so heartbroken. I hope you remember it well enough to recreate it.

oh yes, i punished myself by sitting until late and remaking the whole thing : P but it's back up and likely better than before so it's all right!

I'm guessing the forums are going through an April Fools Day phase hence the oddities in threads showing stuff like that.
Though I wouldn't mind if the cat part remained forever--

I still stand that only Noxid's should be visible.

Ditto but on his birthday maybe?
(Though I imagine that getting it to be visible on that day only, and just for him, could be tricky--)

at this point i don't even know if i morally should post in the org thread because i'm abusing double posting too much
then again i am contributing to it, even if it's just me

huh I got no notifications for that

It's all new update style content so it should be alright as long as you don't go too overboard

I'm guessing mentions might've had their notifications disabled?
Hina's mentioned me a few times in the ORGs thread and I didn't get notified either…

start messaging people directly to get their attention, got it

Hello, could I have the source code of your Cave Story java port? It looks really cool! I couldn't figure out how to DM you here so I'm just leaving a comment. My discord account is Windows7Ultimate#2287 if you wish to contact me there.
Hina
thinking of going back to the NES library for org ideas, anyone got any recommendations?

Hm, I can think of quite a few games with pretty cool songs--
Though, those may just have songs that I like, haha…

The Adventure Island games, the Castlevania games, Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers 2, Contra, Contra Force, the Final Fantasy games, the Kirby games, the MegaMan games, the Mario games, The Jungle Book, Metroid, Metal Gear, the Fire Emblem games, and The Flintstones games…
Hina

wow, contra force appreciation
stage 5 is back in business then i think
or that trash metal boss theme

i appreciate the jungle book mention too, i feel like that's an underappreciated game

oops i'm here to announce another delay in the evergreen update, but for good reasons for once: freeware now supports multiple tile layers (thanks to periwinkle!) and i am going absolutely nuts with the decoration
TLinkan

Looks hella nice. Really makes something like a sewer tileset much easier to work with

Do you have control over the background tile movement speed btw? And is there a limit to 2 tile layers (front, background), maybe an X,Y offset for a 3D-ish effect?

Being able to move the background at a slower set speed, could make for some very interesting foreshadowing (is that the best word? Showing a giant area in the background, slowly coming into view.) Or with X-amount of background layers; directing the player back and forth weaving deeper into the background layers... Seeing where you are going.

Anyway, looking good~ I can appreciate spending extra time making it look just right :D

ty!
as for how it works, it's fairly limited and not any kind of parallax - four layers, only one's solid - but it does mean the curse of trying to have a background behind a slope tile is finally over

if anyone here likes touhou remixes and knows where to find this specific one i'd be super grateful, i don't think it exists online (trust me, i've looked around for a while now) but all i have is this low-quality version

I really love some touhou music. Not gonna lie. Touhou remixes are so good.
Hina
Hina
they are, and while i've found MOST of what i was looking for, i still can't find this one
and i only know it exists because of an old android touhou rpg, that's the only place where i've heard it and i want the real thing
Cibryll
Cibryll
Hm, it kinda sounds vaguely familiar…

And yeah, Touhou songs, whether remixes or not, are amazing~
Cibryll
Listening to music is always such a good feeling--
Pity I can't do that while the power's out.
Hina

i used to have a powerbank just to charge my phone in case of power outages because i can't imagine not listening to music for longer periods of time
