Isn't the Mad Max game rather good? Haven't tried it myself.
No it's generic open world slop
You say that about every game, tho.
while this is true, it still managed to scratch that itch and the aesthetics and atmosphere is great. I loved just cruising the wasteland attacking random vehicles and convoys while listening to stoner rock.
That was my opinion when I played too. Mediocre gameplay, fantastic atmosphere/aesthetics.
Nobody takes people who say, "slop" seriously. You can make good points or be correct, but the second you say, "slop" everyone just jumps to the conclusion that you're unimaginative and probably moronic.

This is what we all think of you.
It's generic open world shit made by tasteless marketing teams for the sole purpose of cashing in on clueless common denominator consumers.
If you like playing as desert garbageman. Trudging through sand and tar and climbing over scrap metal to pick up discarded trash
Sounds like post apoc to me alright
unlike this piece of shit movie
, it is.

Well it's not like the movie is ONE BIG FRICKING ACTION SCENE, YOU DUMB INCEL PIECE OF SHIT
anon stop trying they are brainrot and its fatal
It's about 30 minutes of action scenes with the rest of it being Americans incoherently mumbling at each other or women whining
>Well it's not like the movie is ONE BIG FRICKING ACTION SCENE, YOU DUMB INCEL PIECE OF SHIT
Yeah it is, and that's why it's boring crap. You need more than just action to make a good movie. See: Road Warrior. Even the Tina Turner movie is better than Fury Road.
>Well it's not like the movie is ONE BIG FRICKING ACTION SCENE, YOU DUMB INCEL PIECE OF SHIT
It isn't. It's about 5 minutes of admittedly pretty good action intersected with 15 minutes of Furiosa and the rest of the female cast ranting and raving about what a piece of shit Immortan Joe is The movie is an allegory for women's rights and the patriarchy, Immortan Joe is an evil FASCIST WHO ABUSES WOMEN, GET IT?!?!? at Max as he awkwardly sits around doing nothing but grunting and gets wrapped up in the women's escape plan for no benefit to himself.
But without max they would’ve died. Plus max absolutely rapes the bullet dude and all of his men offscreen. Kinda badass.
oiinnnk back to pleb it leftie scum
This board never fails to bring the most contrarian ironic shit imaginable, hurrr good things like BG3 and Fury Road are bad. Fricking pathetic taste.
Great action scenes but everything else was mediocre
It is a bad movie you fricking schizo.
I don't like women being pushed into media but Fury Road is legit good.
don't care about it as long as it makes sense.. but i was in doubt about the movie since everyone was praising it, including people whose opinion i usually care for - but it was the blandest shit i've seen and it doesn't deserve to be on the same universe as the previous ones
it was an ok sunday movie if it didn't belong to mad max franchise, but it's suffered the same treatement as gta/simpsons, which was funny because it was a counter-cultural piece of entertainment to become the thing they were criticising in the end
I don't get the woman complaint. They're all incompetent moron prostitutes, LITERALLY every single one of them. They act like boss b***hes and get humbled by Max any time he feels bothered to. Then they get nannied and carried by him, who seemingly does this out of some personal desire for redemption. It's pretty much the same as the second movie, a bunch of unlikeable incompetent homosexuals get saved by Max because he feels bad for them and then he disappeares. Nobody cares about the story anyway, everyone just wants to see some cars blow up.
>I don't get the woman complaint.
The whole "no women in our Mad Max" thing was this stupid culture war controversy that was mostly created/blown out of proportion by the media shortly before the film's release. According to the media there was a boycott of the film by MRAs (men's rights activists) because the trailer featured Max taking orders from a woman. In reality the boycott was actually one person, who'd written one blog post, who very clearly hadn't seen the old Mad Max movies and who clearly didn't know what he was talking about, on this insane, fringe, red-pill, Pick-Up-Artist website who's other great articles were things like "Why Women Shouldn't Vote," and "Why Rape Should Be Legal On Private Property" (I'm not making those up lmao.)
It was completely blown out of proportion by the media but unfortunately it's meant people (on both sides) now end up viewing the movie through this bullshit lens based on shit that didn't actually exist. The amount of shitty hot-takes about the movie's so-called feminism I've heard is mind-numbing and so much of it is just plain wrong, based on things that aren't actually there in the movie. Don't get me wrong, it's got some pro-women, feminist (or whatever you want to call it) themes but a lot of the discourse is just based on a nonsense controversy that didn't actually exist
>insane, fringe, red-pill, Pick-Up-Artist website who's other great articles were things like "Why Women Shouldn't Vote," and "Why Rape Should Be Legal On Private Property" (I'm not making those up lmao.)
sounds like Coach Deadpill
No, it was Return of Kings edited by Roosh V (who himself wrote the "Why Rape Should Be Legal on Private Property" article, but not the Mad Max article.) It's gone now, he had some born-again Christian moment and deleted everything (it's still up on Wayback machine it's just a bit hard to sort through.) Although I checked and it seems like he's just moved onto gifting Christians rather than beta-males/closeted homosexuals et al. now.
For the life of me I couldn't find the rape article on wayback but here's a screenshot of it I found
>bullshit lens based on shit that didn't actually exist.
now as a fellow lore homosexual you have to also admit Millers comments about being a feminist with a feminist movie most certainly did not help
I had the fortune of witnessing fury road back in theaters when it came out. All everybody could rage about was the machines and said machines smashing into each other. Or Immortan Joe and his warboys. The eye candy harem was just the cherry on top. At least this was the honest, on ground reaction before culture warrior turds started hijacking the movie
>now as a fellow lore homosexual you have to also admit Millers comments about being a feminist with a feminist movie most certainly did not help
Yeah but Miller's a 70 year old man. I don't think he's that familiar with internet nonsense. When people asked him in interviews about whether or not the film's feminist or not I think he thought they were talking about those bra-burning b***hes from back in his day. Not whatever the frick mid 2010s tumblr/blogger culture war insanity type feminism was. I still don't think he knows.
>Don't get me wrong, it's got some pro-women, feminist (or whatever you want to call it) themes but a lot of the discourse is just based on a nonsense controversy that didn't actually exist
That's what I mean, I struggle to see any of that feminist shite. I'm one o' them racist sexist gay-hatin' chuds meself, I ditched the newest Dune movie the second they showed Kynes on screen, but I just don't see any feminism shit in Fury Road. The women are pathetic. Max mogs Furiosa in martial prowess and wits. The breeders are just moronic brats. The hags fricked everything up in their oasis. Max fixes their shit practically on his own, and he only does it to cope with his trauma. It's literally the second movie except all the unlikeable morons he's saving have veganas.
why are you disengenous? the movie was obviosly angling for a very feminist female oriented adventure. Hell the upcoming sequel is literally named Furiosa- a mad max saga. they wrote Mad Max out of his own franchise. kys.
No but you see the script was written in the 90s so it's all fine the 90s was a trad decade and none of the modern bullshit has existed back then everyone was happily farming the land together with their extended families with traditional family roles and no groups of people were aiming to change that to destabilise society.
>pic unrelated: any mad max with mel "jews in a cross" gibson vs the actual meme ebic womyn "mad" max from the current century
The script for Fury Road was written in the late 90s. They were going to start shooting it in 2002 with Mel Gibson starring but then 9/11 happened and they lost their budget. You can find the script for that version online and IT'S LITERALLY THE SAME MOVIE
Seriously here's concept art of Mel's Max as he would've appeared in Fury Road.
It's the only thing I disaprove in Fury Road: whatsitsname Hardy is a great actor, but he and his clothes don't look like 80's Mad Max. don't have that "rogue-policeman-punk-rocker-roadwarrior"
That, and the soundtrack lacked a bit of rock n roll, that the movie itself was asking for it
>Gizzgay
Post discarded
Post playlist, oh ye Music Critic
Mad
Max, yes
Beyond Thunderdome and Fury Road are both post-nuclear apocalypse, while the first two movies are before that but after the Fuel War drove society into its downward spiral. Max's old police uniform was already threadbare by the time of Road Warrior. By the next movie there was nothing left of it and he was wearing stuff more appropriate for someone who has to deal with dust storms in the wasteland.
>By the next movie there was nothing left of it
Nah he's still wearing the jacket and what looks like the same pants in Beyond Thunderdome. He's got a bunch of other crap on over it but by the time he meets the Peter Pan kids it's clearly still his MFP uniform
the cast wouldn't be the same.
no one should care if it's a man or a woman, if they fit in the role and brighten up the movie.. too bad both actores are pretty weak, hence why it was so painful to assist the whole thing, but at this point it's something very common in the movie industry. with the big actors larger than life, like pacino, de niro, pitt, di caprio, etc starting to fade, and the ones to fill their spots are pretty boys, fit girls and Black personinos screaming "it's hollywood, baby" while they smugly ""act"" with a green cover in the latest marvel or disney piece of propaganda
wtf are you even talking about? None of that applies to Fury Road anyway. You're just rambling and ranting out of the summer home you've built up your arse
>still seething over Rachel Zegler
>Hates the movie, likes the bland as shit game
Is it difficult going through life having such shit taste? I feel like everyone you meet must assume you're moronic
if a movie is bland, it's bland - it's the same experience for everyone.
if a game's bland, it can possibly be due to the lack of creativity on the part of the player, since it's an interactive experience, Black person
fury road is a legit all-time action movie

>Ganker suddenly hates Mad Max Fury Road now
What happened? I remember everyone, including Ganker and Ganker loving this movie when it came out.
The amount of WITNESS ME and MEDIOCRE posting were fun
It has been retroactively downgraded now that they know Miller is making a Furiosa movie.
The script for the Furiosa movie's existed almost as long as the Fury Road script. They were gonna release it as a tie-in, direct-to-dvd anime alongside Fury Road at one point (this was during the era of stuff like The Animatrix.)
So much cool stuff came out around the time Fury Road released.
>Furiosa movie.
I watch for she
>now that they know Miller is making a Furiosa movie.
Well they are about eight years late to that party tbh. It was more or less implied at the end of Fury Road that Max was going to wander off into the wastes like he did before Thunderdome came out.
>retroactively downgraded
That's fricking moronic. At should be judged independently. Are you the type to cry about how the Star Wars original trilogy is soured now because of the sequels? Or that The Matrix was never good because of Reloaded and Revolutions?
*Art for frick sake
>Are you the type to cry about how the Star Wars original trilogy is soured now because of the sequels?
Not him but Star Wars is a weird one just due to the amount of weird changes and CGI shit he's added into those movies.It's actually kinda hard to judge it on its own merits since it's been monkeyed with so much (yes, I know 4K77 exists but that's still not technically legally available)

It's better than you'd expect it to be but it's brought down by the Ubisoft open world elements
mad max game is the way to go with the movie. It adds so much lore and world building wise as long as you aint a contrarian troony that gets triggered at the standard generic open world gameplay elements
It could've been great but it's actually very shallow and littered with boring collectables and for the most part boring locations
Yes, Mad Max game itself is good.
Mad Max is one of the series that makes sense to be open world though, what's the point if you can't drive your car in an empty wasteland? That's like asking why Spider Man games are mostly open world.
it's fine
nothing amazing
It's the most 6/10 game you'll ever play and then never again.
You can't post this and say it's only a 6/10
I commend the devs being accurate to the source material with the warboyz ragdolling in the storm like in the movie
The thing is, the game is stylish as hell and has great combat and systems. It just has a bit of a ubisoft exploration element but it's entirely focused on upgrading your car. You can beat the game without having to explore too much, just by getting the bare necessities.
Also the creators of the game just went ahead and grabbed whatever plot they wanted from Fury Road's development so, it actually had spoilers in it's story that spoil elements of the new Furiosa movie.
>it actually had spoilers in it's story that spoil elements of the new Furiosa movie.
like what?
Generic and driving at beginning sucked too much
Good? It's fricking great. Better than the movie.

yeah it was pretty good
Ashes for Doom.
It's amazing and it's free.
https://www.moddb.com/mods/ashes-2063
Next "episode" coming soon apparently
Seconding this, Ashes is fricking kino and far better than most full games
Obvious answer: the Fallout games
Also, you should check out the old Mad Max movies too. Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior in particular is fricking fantastic and is basically 80s Fury Road
Fun fact: Hugh Keays-Byrne, who played the main villain Toecutter in the first Mad Max film, also played Immortan Joe in Fury Road, the 'last' Mad Max film. He's dead now, but what a legacy.
What a fun guy he was
I know. Awesome dude - he's easily the best thing about the first movie
Yeesh..
marketers really frequenting Ganker is not a meme after all i guess
I watched the first two recently and found it kinda weird how nobody ever seems to mention how AGGRESSIVELY gay these movies are. It's so in your face, you'd expect it to be paraded around by leftists or someshit.
It's mostly the bad guys but yes. Fun fact: in Mad Max 2 a bunch of the bad guys are literally called Gayboy Beserkers and Smegma Crazies in the script
Ye I remember that one, it's when they're circling the civvie camp. Could barely believe what I was hearing.
The homos are all among the villains. Wez wants to capture Max and turn him into his own personal butt-slave for humiliating him and to replace his former boy toy. The gay fetishwear is all among the villains. gays don't like seeing themselves and homosexuality in general being associated with evil. The same goes in the first movie. The only clearly gay characters among the Toecutter's gang.
Loved Hugh as the Toecutter.
>"Whatever I say"? What a wonderful philosophy you have!
>gays don't like seeing themselves and homosexuality in general being associated with evil.
Doesn't seem to generally be the case seeing how popular Disney villains are, "owning" the gay-coded characters and mannerisms is kind the the point of a gay-parade. Depends on the overall tone, I guess.
Did you guys know that the missing sleave on Max's jacket isn't just because it looks cool, but actually part of Miller's medical autism? Some guy runs over his arm with a motorcycle at the end of the first movie, presumably he gotnemergency medical care for his (very serious) injuries where protocol is to just cut off the sleeve instead of taking off the jacket.
That's pretty cool. If I remember right the directors were med students or surgeons or something and used all their money for the movie, right?
Reminds me of biomutant. Also reminds me how disappointed I was in that game.
also, days gone is kinda has the same spirit
Mad Max plays it safe but Days Gone may actually be the most generic post-apocalyptic game ever made.
technically not post apoc (maybe small-scale post apoc?) but play S.T.A.L.K.E.R.
CDDA is fricking amazing once you learn the controls.
Post your thumb
Try the Metal Max series. they're a strange cross between JRPG and WRPG where you build a squad and customize a fleet of tanks that you drive around the post-apocalyptic desert. Hunting monsters and claiming bounties.
If the legally-distinct name didn't tip you off, the developers were big fans of Mad Max. most of the games never got translated but there are English fan patches
Metal Max Returns is an amazing JRPG where your party members can ride customizable tanks and vehicles
You're a bounty hunter hunting down mutated abominations, then you collect bounties and upgrade your tanks
Criminally underrated game
My homie, it's a shame the original 2 never got translated, just the DS remake
Metal Max is my favorite JRPG series due to 3 and 2R for the DS. Shame that the 4 tl is stuck in discord troon hell. 93% for over a year now because they're too fricking proud to release it without videos subbed and too fricking lazy to learn how to sub the videos.
I'm playing the one on Pc right.
It's weird
Fallout, and don't play any of the other games besides the first one. They're all terrible.
Why is Fallout 2 terrible?
its a reddit game before reddit itself became a thing
it's a good game, ignore the morons
FUMES is quintessential Mad Max shit. Only a demo for now, but several hours of fun are guaranteed unless you have no soul and no testosterone within your body.
Underrail
Rage 2 was the closest thing I could find to fighting Mad Max stylized convoys
Is Rage 2 shit? Convoy battles sounds dope as frick, I yearn for more dusty grizzled vehicular combat.
It is actually really good.
it has amazing combat but everything else in the game is completely and utterly dogshit.
>upgrades that make the combat more fun are locked behind optional scavenging on the map
>most of the game's combat is clearing outposts
>vehicle combat is shit
>story is short and story missions piss easy
The open world completely and utterly fricked this game, it would be fantastic if it had 10x more enemies and if it ditched the open world entirely
Anyone able to recommend good vehicular combat non-racing games? Preferably open world and without a predefined protagonist, but at this point I'll take what I can get.
I adored Convoy despite it being categorically inferior to FTL but I 100%ed it several times over by now.
I had a fricking blast with FUMES, but there is only so much you can get out of a demo.
Don't wanna play Crossout because it's an always online F2P game and everyone keeps saying it's uber-grindy P2W garbage.
Played Ex Machina which theoretically is a near perfect game for me, but it felt way too dull and devoid of variety.
It depends how much you want to stretch the definition of "vehicular"
If you include horses pic related.
Sadly car combat it's a dead genre that peaked during the ps1 era
Sadly not a fan of horses. I could maybe become interested in a mounted cpmbat game if it's some fantasy or cryptid shit, like dragons or something, but not horses. Don't like horses.
Vigilante 8 was always my favourite
The world is bland, the characters are insufferable and the writing is cringe.
The gunplay starts slow but ramps up and by the end is genuinely fun. However by the time i was finally having a blast the game ran out of content
To respond to your question i don't recall convoys being anything special, however the ones in Mad Max were pretty gud
Unfortunately there aren't that many convoy battles available and the only vehicle which is actually viable against them is the one shown in the webm. Convoys drive around in a loop and respawn. The bulk of Rage 2 is Ubisoft open world activities which means going from marker to marker on the map clearing out bandit dens, fuel depots, collecting ranger gear, powering down stations, harvesting meteorites, opening roadblocks, descending into a sewer and killing a mutant, finding arks for new powers and destroying stationery turrets over and over. Combat is decent but traveling from place to place is a chore (even when you get the flying machine)
This was also made by Avalanche, right? This is straight up Mad Max 2, I might give it a whirl since Tim Sweeney gave me a "free" copy
rage 1 matches the aesthetic more but the vehicle fights were kind of tedious in that
I need to play this before it gets taken off of the ps gamepass thing. Haven't really thought about it because Rage 1 was forgettable beyond the hot girl
Mad Max the game is good. I've been thinking of other desert games but there aren't many.
How's Atlas Fallen if you get it cheap?
God Eater and Code Vein.
Borderlands 1 is pretty much a direct mad max rip-off
Baroque (1998) for the Sega Saturn is a neat post-apoc horror roguelike. A fan translation patch exists and Saturn emulation is piss easy nowadays.
IT SUCKS
Hard to have good pots apoc games now with all the handholding when the genre demands self reliance and relying on your own wits.
true, soiboys like post-apoc because it's misery porn to them. they just like the aesthetics of it, in a detached way. they don't want to see the reality of being in miserable living conditions.
New Vegas? No one?
inb4 troony
the first Borderlands was at least partially inspired by Mad Max imo
Borderlands is almost a complete rip of it, but the other games in the series have plenty of the same elements, like the bosses doing rock concerts and shit
the problem with the sequels is that they went full crazy but dropped the more somber atmosphere of a desolate planet, the first one was borderline depressing at times despite already being mostly focused on humor and quirkiness
>Mad Max
>FUMES
>PARADIGM WORLDS
>Metro 2033 and Last Light
>Kenshi
>Nuclear Throne
>The Long Dark
Borderlands 3 is pretty good, also Fallout 3/4 and Rage 1/2
In the spirit of Mad Max movies I'd like a post apoc game where the low trust lawless environment is front and center. Even "friendly" groups should be wary of the stranger PC unless they have reason to trust him. Certainly none of the usual shit where settlements have no qualms about the player entering and roaming around armed with no or little questions asked.
The Slaverian Trucker comes pretty close to that.
Isn't the Mad Max game Warner Brother trash with qte combat like batman?
Wasteland 2 and 3
As an actual Australian the first Mad Max was really weird, since it's practically just set in a town nearby and barely looks post apocalyptic to me (at least as far as I remember the film looking at least). I guess this is how citygays feel about movies too though.
Mad Max 1 and 2 take place before the nuclear war but after the Fuel war. Society was collapsing after the latter but the apocalypse hadn't happened yet.
Slightly wrong. Mad Max 1 takes place pre-apolypse but when a fuel crisis has gotten so bad that gangs have taken over the highways. In Mad Max 2 the crisis has gotten worse to the point where society has completely collapsed and those gangs have now consolidated into something more like tribes
There was a war going on that left the world's supplies of fuel drastically reduced in the aftermath though. The narrator/feral-kid speaks of it in Road Warrior's intro monologue. Society was collapsing because of it, but that war didn't engulf the whole world the way the later nuclear one did.
Yes. Frick I'll see if I can find the original outline to Mad Max 2. I used to have it but I think it might be on an old hard drive. They actually specify what actually happened in the interim between Mad Max 1 and 2 and which countries actually went to war (the Feral Kid/narrator obvs doesn't specify)
I recall Saudi Arabia being one. Basically the world's oil supplies were running out somehow, so the countries with biggest stocks were fighting to hold onto what they had.
There were also water wars (Immortan Joe was a 'hero' of these wars) as the world's fresh water was getting poisoned by all the oil and other mining.
Hey! I found it. Also found the script for Road Warrior too with the extended opening and the cut original ending. And yes, it was Saudi Arabia
Yeah but the 'water wars' thing wasn't established until Fury Road (although notably the whole nuclear apocalypse thing wasn't established until Thunderdome either)
It's interesting to read the actual backstory without the mythologizing angle that they use in the Road Warrior intro. Also: a 3-legged dog probably sounded way better on paper before they actually thought through it from a production standpoint
I know it wasn't full on post apocalyptic (although in hindsight that's what I said accidentally), but it was after society started breaking down and the start of the gangs taking control iirc. It just felt weird at the time since nobody really made films set in Australia unless they were stealing the wildlife shots to pretend it's somewhere else in the world, an indie film no one's heard of or the rare Crocodile Dundee type film. It looked great in the film, but I could never get over thinking how it looked barely any different from country towns which didn't help with the immersion like it did for Wolf Creek.
>zoomers confused by the peak oil plotpoint
Basically in the 80's, the reason we needed to ban private cars (especially gas powered ones, electric cars were fine even back then though), abolish private property in general and make everyone live in a pod was because of PEAK OIL and DA OZONE LAYER. You see, unless we do it RIGHT NOW, in just ten more years the entire world will run out of oil by the 2000's, the ozone layer will entirely disintegrate giving everyone cancer and the polar icecaps will melt, resulting in the entire planet drowning. Ihil sub sōle novum.
Ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam
The point i was making was that Mad Max was always a fusion of a boy and his dog + whatever conspiracy theory authoritarian marxists were currently peddling as the reason why we need to destroy capitalism and submit to the polit bureau. In the first movie it was peak oil, in Mad Max 2 & 3 it's because of NUCLEAR WAR. In Fury road it's WOMEN'S RIGHTS. And that's why Robocop (the first one by Verhoeven, the rest suck ass) is the superior 80's action movie.
That's because the script isn't very smart
>Mad Max was always a fusion of a boy and his dog + whatever conspiracy theory authoritarian marxists were currently peddling as the reason why we need to destroy capitalism
>In Fury road it's WOMEN'S RIGHTS
The script was literally written in 1998. You're just wrong
Feminism existed in the 90's too, anon. In fact, it was at it's peak back then, right after the USSR collapsed due to it's own moronation and impossibility, and the marxists needed a new excuse.
You're just making shit up now anon. And besides the script had nothing to do with the then-current zeitgeist around women's issues since it was literally written nearly 20 years beforehand
Oliver Reed is just an actor, George Miller is the writer and director. And he's exactly the type of preachy pseudo-intellectual champagne marxist i've described. I don't hate the Mad Max movies mind you, not even Fury road. It was undoubtedly the best action movie released in decades. I'm just not under the delusion that the movies aren't a clumsy allegory for whatever topic was currently "the in thing" in Miller's fart huffing social circles. Miller is a conformist begging for acceptance, Verhoeven is an auteur. The reason the first Robocop was good and the rest sucked ass, was because Verhoeven took the script which was basically just anti-cop, anti-capitalist, pro-marxist propaganda, cut out the majority of that extremely hamfisted allegory, and brought in the christian elements.
>And he's exactly the type of preachy pseudo-intellectual champagne marxist i've described
Proof? Seriously do you have any proof that he's a marxist in any way, shape or form?
>I'm just not under the delusion that the movies aren't a clumsy allegory for whatever topic was currently "the in thing" in Miller's fart huffing social circles
Weird. According to the book, Blood, Sweat and Chrome the writers (who were all male btw) didn't even intend for it to be that feminist it just sorta ended up that way
>Proof?
The fact that Road Warrior is about peak oil, Mad Max 2 & 3 are about nuclear paranoia, Fury road is about women's rights and the quote you just posted. Yeah, i'm sure it just happened to work out that way, it wasn't that after the USSR collapsed nobody could defend Marxist economic theories and nuclear war was off the table too, and so they all desperately clutched and retreated into their last holdout, identity politics shit.
I don't think it's a conspiracy, film and arts in general just attracts a lot of rich, narcissistic pseudo-intellectual who think they are very smart when they are in fact very stupid, and become communists just out of spite and contrarianism. It's basically the nu-/misc/ phenomenon; Russia sending in the asiatic mutt hordes to rape and murder white people with literal soviet flags planted on top of their tanks is based and redpilled, Ukrainians defending their families, homes and country from said mutt invasion is cringe and a plot by DA israeliteS.
Anyway, Atom RPG and especially Trudograd are good post-apoc games. Highly enjoyed, would recommend.

its like some anons commented here about the theatric release. What you described is what most sane people got from the movie. This feminism garbage is a hot take by culture warrior turdies trying to rewrite history. Anti-SJW and SJWs are just the opposite ends of the same horseshoe
>Anyway, Atom RPG and especially Trudograd are good post-apoc games. Highly enjoyed, would recommend.
How good are they at the RPG aspect? I'm talking like a real freedom, being able to attack and kill whoever you want without homosexual essentials and having a good enough variety of dialog to roleplay the majority of possible personalities. I omly ever heard that it's full of internet memes.
It's a 1 to 1 homage to Fallout 1 and 2 so expect freedom to attack anyone but most of the time during dialogue you will have 1 maybe 2 choices, except for the more important dialogues. Also attribute checks here and there like being able to tell a bureaucrat larping as Machiavelli you're more of a Locke guy and he replies that Norse mythology has nothing to do with it.
Basically if you consider F1 and F2 good RPGs you will also consider Atom a good rpg.
What if I consider F1 and F2 shit games because they're unfun to play with shoddy combat mechanics and scuffed balance? I'm fine with CRPGs as long as they're not shitty to play like the classics are.
Then you will not like a game with LITERALLY the combat of Fallout 2.
But of course you'd have to be moronic to play these games for the combat, so thankfully we're talking in hypotheticals here.
Well if I HAVE to do combat then I want it to not drain my will to live. If there's no game in a videogame I might as well go read a fricking book.
>I don't know, i don't do the "Grognard the murderhobo"-shit personally.
>Uuuuuhm sweaty if you don't want people to be arbitrarily immortal because the devs are creatively bankrupt and the story is on rails you are le murderhobo
Either you're not a very smart individual or you're believing me to be of a very simple mind.
>Either you're not a very smart individual or you're believing me to be of a very simple mind.
No need to get so pissy at a slight jab, friend. It is a pre-made campaign and not a tabletop game, so i assume if you kill some 100% main plot critical character and frick yourself out of being able to beat the game it informs you.
>No need to get so pissy at a slight jab, friend.
It's an observation. I'd be liable to get pissy if you were on point, but this is just an incorrect presumption given undue confidence when presented as an insult. Besides, how come you get to belittle me, however slightly, and I don't?
>I'd be liable to get pissy if you were on point, but this is just an incorrect presumption given undue confidence when presented as an insult.
Let's review what you asked;
>I'm talking like a real freedom, being able to attack and kill whoever you want without homosexual essentials
>Uuuuuhm sweaty if you don't want people to be arbitrarily immortal because the devs are creatively bankrupt and the story is on rails you are le murderhobo
So was it an incorrect presumption? Based on that statement, it was square on the mark. Literally every single videogame has some immortal or essential characters, because it's a videogame and it can't react to literally every single possible thing the players think up, like a DM playing tabletop would be able to. It's a limitation of the medium and i accept it for what it is, and so i personally don't see the point of going around testing if i can kill this or that NPC, so i don't know can you kill every NPC in the game and get a gag "and then everyone but you was dead, the end"-ending.
>how come you get to belittle me, however slightly, and I don't?
You can, i'm just bantzing around.
>So was it an incorrect presumption? Based on that statement, it was square on the mark.
It literally wasn't and your inability to understand that proves that you are of low intelligence and not just taking me for a fool.
>Literally every single videogame has some immortal or essential characters
New Vegas has a grand total of 2, one of them is hidden behind a bulletproof shelter and another is killable but is a program that simply uploads itself onto different robots when one of them dies.

Sometimes a certain kind of character would think that an NPC just needs to perish. A petty spiteful egotistical prick in New Vegad might kill Ceasar not because he's le ebil tyrant, but because he called that prick a piece of shit and promissed to turn him into minced meat for disobedience. Doesn't mean that the prick will wipe out the entire state of Nevada. I'm genuinely surprised you lack the cognitive abilities to comprehend this.
>You can, i'm just bantzing around.
Doesn't seem like it, given your reaction to my rebuttal.
>It literally wasn't and your inability to understand that proves that you are of low intelligence and not just taking me for a fool.
You literally asked can you do a genocide run and just kill everyone.
>New Vegas has a grand total of 2, one of them is hidden behind a bulletproof shelter and another is killable but is a program that simply uploads itself onto different robots when one of them dies.
So like i said, even new vegas only has two essentials, the gun runners vendor to ensure you always have a place to buy weapons and ammo and Yes man so you can complete the game no matter what.

I can comprehend it, i just personally don't like to play Grognard the murderhobo.
>Doesn't seem like it, given your reaction to my rebuttal.
Reiterating that i don't know the answer to your question? Ok bro, you win or whatever.
>You literally asked can you do a genocide run and just kill everyone.
I literally did not. Read it again. And if you don't get it - then read once again. And if even then you fail - try begging me to explain it to you and if you convince me to pity you - I'll consider enlightening you.
>So like i said, even new vegas only has two essentials, the gun runners vendor to ensure you always have a place to buy weapons and ammo and Yes man so you can complete the game no matter what.
Both of which are essential logically. I wouldn't be upset if I found someone's audiolog in a game and I can't kill him, because he has no physical pressence. Similarly the two NV NPCs have logical explanations for why they're unkillable. They aren't even essential technically speaking.
>I can comprehend it, i just personally don't like to play Grognard the murderhobo.
You can't comprehend it, you're not smart enough.
>Reiterating that i don't know the answer to your question? Ok bro, you win or whatever.
What did I win? Is it edible?
>I'm talking like a real freedom, being able to attack and kill whoever you want without homosexual essentials
I don't know, i don't do the "Grognard the murderhobo"-shit personally.
>having a good enough variety of dialog to roleplay the majority of possible personalities.
I don't remember being particularly impressed or disappointed, so middle of the road.
>I only ever heard that it's full of internet memes.
Base Atom RPG definitely, it's basically fallout 2-tier where if you don't get the reference/joke, you're left staring at an awkward and incoherent line of dialogue. Only in Atom RPG the reference/joke is some obscure Russian imageboard meme instead of a pop culture reference. Trudograd is written a lot better and the meme references are integrated a lot more subtly like in Fallout 1, so if you don't get the joke you don't even notice. The only reason i recommend base Atom RPG is so you can get the lore and import your character with all the stat boosts, hidden perks from quests/tattoos, and if you use an oblivion ampule to re-spec Hexagon's stats out of useless shit like charisma, that carries over to Trudograd too.
now that you mention it, I do have a running theory that strong christian and biblical elements are barred from making it into films to any great degree because their effect is too powerful, too compelling.
thats why there isn't a single large scale new testament hollywood film except for mel gibson's (a blackballed antisemite) passion of the christ, which was kind of shit, granted.
It would have too much of an effect on people, because as we know and CIA discovered with MKultra is that visual media is the most powerful tool for mind control, or influencing thoughts and behaviours in general. Imagine combining that with one of if no the most compelling story ever written
>thats why there isn't a single large scale new testament hollywood film
*there is an extremely short list of them compared to the popularity of biblical stories
Robocop had Christian Elements?
And knowing that author JRR Tolkien was Catholic and included many Catholic elements in the Lord of the Rings novels, was all that cut out or altered to be non-Christian in the Peter Jackson films?

The only thing i remember than changing was turning Arwen into a badass warrior and the one that saves Frodo after the Witch king stabs him with the morgul blade in the books it's a male elf serving Elrond
>robocop video
whoa based.
Indeed. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYBU-owonIE and RoboDoc: The Creation of Robocop is also a good watch to get more context.
His anti womens-lib tate speeches go back to the 70s.
And I take it pollution didn't reach critical levels anywhere in the world and the rate of cancer didn't increase in those places?
The first Mad Max isn't post-apoc, it's pre-apocalypse.
The Long Drive
Would ya'll buy a desert chase fps roguelike meant to emulate mad max?
I've been thinking about making it for my 2nd game.
How else would you adapt the chase to vidya?
thoughts on fantasy post-apoc settings?
It's a shame about what hellgate london could have been.
They make great rpgs
Post apocalypse is a shitty setting for a game because by its nature it is very limiting. Fallout only gets away with it by having vaults as pockets for doing interesting things.
Borderlands
Yeah bay-beh ,finaly everything is coming up randy
there's only that one mad max game that comes to mind unfortunately. It was surprisingly decent for an ubitrash-like. maybe we'll see another game if the next movie reignites interest. the first game had many good ideas that could be expanded upon
Go back Wrong board
What games have "near-apocalyptic" settings like Mad Max 1 anyway? I know Surge 1 happens just before the nanomachines missile launched.
Neoscavenger maybe?
I want to be Furiosa's dog
Roadwar 2000
Fallout 1
give death stranding a whirl
Found the game better than the movie.
Furiosa is a boring character, I don't know why they gave her an origin movie, her whole gimmick is "I'm going to smash the patriarchy" She's a feminist avenger but without irony.
Tank Girl is my post-apoc waifu.
woman centric
HAHAHHAHHHA OOOHHHOHOHOHOOHOHO
pathetic
99% of the gaming audience is male and will always be
It doesn't get better than this one when it comes to post apocalyptic games. Every level is a trope found in most post apocalyptic movies.
>Prologue is about escaping a military regime in order to search for a better life in the outside world.
>Volga river is about religious zealots who have twisted their faith and become a cult that hates everything related to technology and worship a mutated fish.
>Bunker level is pretty much every "trapped in an abandoned military bunker with human eating monsters" except the monsters are humans.
>Desert level is literally Mad Max in almost every way.
>Forest level is a about mutated monster and a group of survivors stalking you through a forest.
>Dead City is the "there's an abandoned research facility that houses the cure and is the answer to our objective but it's a 1 in 100 chances to succeed".
>Even in the dlc the entire storyline is about "character who wasn't home when apocalypse hit tries to find his way home" trope.
Metro exodus should always be among the first picks when recommending someone post apocalyptic games
the desert level is actually a reference to kin dza dza
how does it compare to the other metro games?
its shit
play fuel
Outlander.
Furry Reddit was a shit movie
the game was a 7/10 tho
this shits so overrated, its basically just a modernized mad max 2 with more girlpower shit.
>le max barely talks in the early movies too
yeah but hes still the frickin star, hes also played by based Mel. Imagine how frickin sick an Old Max movie would be with Mel Gibson, hell yeah
