The Saint_Proverbius Question

[oldmanpaco]

So what the hell is going on? The main page is filled with shit from Blue's News and ShackNews. Who even knew those sites were still alive? It's too much I tell you, too much!

Anyway who is using the Saint_Proverbius account and why is he a faggot?

 

[Semiurge]

Infinitron's non-jewish alt.

 

[Tacgnol]

It's also filled with release info about obscure titles, which I think is the type of news we should be posting. Especially as many of them are Codexer games.

Not saying we shouldn't post about mainstream games, but some balance is nice.

 

[Ismaul]

I see nothing but Incline.

 

[Bester]

Good things never last. It's just a brief taste of how things could have been in an alternative timeline where Infinitron is a normal human being.

 

[Grunker]

I admit it would be pretty lulzy if DU gave him the Plant-tag

 

[Outlander]

Next thing you know, Sol Invictus will be posting again (after the Administration stops using his graphics).

 

[Melcar]

There is a main page?

I call Saint_Proverbius news that he posts a huge upgrade over Infinitron's selective shill posts and press kit shit he posts.

 

[Saint_Proverbius]

I'm completely cool with Infinitron's posts. He's built the relationships with places to get those pressers. They're news. I just do different news... and commentary.

Hey man any new Pokemon like games coming up?

Don't know, but it wouldn't bother me a bit if someone spliced Geneforge with some of that type matching stuff from Pokemon. You know, your character has a level/skill progression system, your critter army leveled and had damage types and resistances based on the characteristics of what they were. You have a wider variety of creatures you can have, collect, create or summon. Give me an isometric view like Geneforge, give me tactical, turn based combat along side that.

I'm sure someone linked an "edgier" pokemon style game on here a while back. It was set in some grimdark setting and had things like locational damage and permadeath of your pets.

It's annoying me because I can't remember the name of it.

Nah this was 2d. I found the thread for it anyway, and thank fuck for that because I was starting to think it was all a random fever dream.

It was called Evowok breeder.

If there could be a Middle ground between Infinitron's unyielding Obsidian shilling and posting of the 77th KickStarter Update of some project that would land in the Spam folder of my garbage e-mail account, and Saint Proverbius's "Roguelike" (*blech*) Newsletter or posting of some Early Access Shovelware/Unity Asset-flip made in 100 hours in MSPaint that hasn't managed to get more than 2 reviews on Steam, or this one also with only two reviews, this one has even only managed one that'd be great.

On the other hand, I don't use the front page much and some of them seem to have attracted developers to post about it and generated some discussion, so what do I know.

The only "News posts" that I really don't like are stuff like "Loop Hero Loved by Rock Paper Shotgun". If I cared what some Gaming Blog that was considered relevant 10 years ago thought about some game I'd go there instead of coming to the Codex, please stop reminding me.

Btw. the "News Archive" just says "File not found." for me if you want to view any posts that have been thrown off the main page: https://rpgcodex.net/newsarchive.php (A next page button as is customary would also be a better solution to browse beyond Page 1 of the News page instead of a "News Archive") and the entire "Content" section is broken displaying the very same articles and 25 pages of results no matter what you click, making me question what the point of it is:

Content

• Editorials
• Reviews
• Previews
• Interviews
• Articles
• Search

Same with a lot of the "This feature is under-development." stuff from the Menu, if it's "under development" (or more likely long abandoned) then remove it and add it when it's ready so it doesn't look like what it is, abandoned and forgotten.

inject news about largely obscure crpg games into my veins please

 

[shywn]

The main page is filled with advertisements for a multitude of casinos, for some reason.

Who on the staff has a gambling addiction?

Another guy once showed respect towards his predecessor.

I've been thinking the front page has really been lacking news about mods. I mean who doesn't love mods? Hey Saint_Proverbius do you think you could cover more game mods? God knows Infinitron won't cover them.

 

[Corvinus]

God knows Infinitron won't cover them.

There's no money in that.

 

[ERYFKRAD]

God knows Infinitron won't cover them.

There's no money in that.

There's no money in good crpgs either.

There have been some brilliant mods we could have done newsposts for. I always thought it was strange we had an initial newspost for the very rough initial release of the Fallout Nevada english translation, but not one for the final release.

So yeah, I agree more mod stuff would be good.
