t. never been to Veeky Forums

V nice thank you

What is dwarf fortress? I've heard of it but don't know anything about it.

a brilliant dwarf community builder with a programmer that only is interested in content and programming but not accessibility, UI, or graphics

It's like SimCity 2000. A city manager of sorts but in a fantasy setting and with bad graphics.

Shit that sounds interesting. I'm gonna look into that

Well there's the 10 in the chart..

Perfect games for the hardcore spreadsheet fan.

The book section is alright, but everything else is garbage.

made some adjustments. r8 & h8

nice change to the films

>I'm a stupid faggot: the list

It's the whole reason I made the adjustments in the first place. OP's pic is an awful intro to film, and everybody's seen Full Metal Jacket.

Unlike that never talked about hidden gem The Thing

why is there an anime section you fucking cretins

While good films most of the ones you added are incredibly slow and sure to turn off someone trying to get into it. While I wouldn't want to do without these slow and thoughtful films, I am of the opinion that movies that choose to convey their themes through fun and excitement are far more valuable. The Iliad and Odyssey are fun as shit and that's a big reason why they've lasted.

Never seen Rules of the Game though so thanks for the rec, I'll check it out.

As I lay dying is not for starters

or post on literally any other board!

wow that's garbage

Why is that chart so random? What is the standard for this "starter pack"? What the fuck is Rez doing there, for example? It's far from a starter pack game.
>Death Note
>Battle Royale
>Django Unchained
I see, this is bait

Peep Show is very Veeky Forums and almost redeems your chart

This list is good but I'd add
Deus Ex, Thief Gold and Thief II: The Metal Age, System Shock 1 and 2, Xenogears

these are very obviously adjusted to the tastes of the people who made them. drop the starter pack bullshit. it just homogenizes conversation and you end up with a board like /mu/.

Play Dark Souls 5 times

Add oldboy and lost in translation to the film lost

...

This and this

rate and make your own changes

forgot one

Is this bait?

It's objectively a reddit game. Doesn't matter if it's your favorite.

Let's see your starter video game list.

Pharaoh (1999)

Ive read them all , some I ve even read twice. Im sure youlle come around & soon you will be as Impressive as me !

Why The Turin Horse?
Why Rectify?
Why Half-Life 2 when 1 is enough?
>Super Meat Boy
>Counter-Strike
I can't believe you'd include this shit next to HL1, Baldur's Gate etc
And where is Deus Ex?
Why only three works that are after BCE?
>Mr Bligh's Bad Language
I see. 8/10 you gave away it was bait at the very end

r8

I chose everything based on accessibility, critical reception, and diversity. All the video games are available to Mac, PC, Linux, are included in many top lists, but are also games I've played and know are good. Super Meat Boy was the indie game choice. Mr Bligh's Bad Language is a narrative nonfiction history told as a play; it's not a troll, it's the choice of theater. The Turin Horse was the foreign film choice. Counter Strike was the multiplayer game choice. And so on.

You're insane if you consider Mr Bligh's Bad Language essential, and not Don Quixote and certain other works. Not to mention Republic and Nicomachean Ethics are enough when it comes to the greeks.
Cave Story is a way better indie choice because it's an actual good game and the most impactful and essential when it comes to indies.
The multiplayer choice should be Unreal Tournament or Quake 3, and you're missing Doom 1.

I've never read Don Quixote. The list is also based on what I've consumed and know is good, so maybe as I get older it'll get better; it was only a few weeks ago that I started on it.

It's alright. It's impossible to be well-versed in every medium, I myself am not versed in any.

I agree with some of the criticisms here, so I looked at my list closer and made the following changes.
>replaced Rectify with The Wire
>replaced Baldur's Gate II with Planescape: Torment (I forgot that I didn't want to have sequels in the list)
>removed Half Life 2 (don't know what to replace it with yet; will take me awhile to think about)
>replaced Phaedo with Iliad
>replaced Mr Bligh's Bad Language with Moby-Dick (the greatest Great American Novel)

You're taste in music is terrible the rest is okay i guess.

The user with Townes Van Zandt had it good though I always miss Rain Dogs on these charts.

Another change.
>replaced The Peloponnesian War with Hamlet

How the fuck have you not got The Sopranos in the TV shows list? Its like the Michael Jordan of TV shows; undisputed #1.

>PKD
>Vonnegut
>Camus
Nah where's the DFW, Gaddis, Homer, fucking Joyce

>music
>start with Demon Days, the wrong Bowie albums and Killer Mike
>aside from that the most normie faux-alternative taste
this is what bad taste looks like

>literature
>category named "books"
>William "I'm a sad fuck southie" Faulkner
>Cormac "I never use full stops" McCarthy
>Herman "Dude I'm really into western philosophy but also space and shit like that so also I'm really into Eastern philosophy also" Hesse
>Phillip "Were you talking to me or were you talking to the brain tumor" K. Dick
>Kurt "Babbies first postmodern" Vonnegut
>Vlad "I want to fuck teenage girls" Nabokov

>anime

>kino
>worst lynch
>ripoff Hunger Games
>David "Historical Revisionist" Lean
>Worst Kubrick
>trash like Conan and Big Trouble in there

>he watches TV and plays video-games

terrible taste user

Try the Witcher 3. Pretty damn Veeky Forums, for a video game.

>most of the ones you added are incredibly slow

bitch you don't know slow

>One Punch Man
Are you shittin' me...

God, even your taste in fucking videogames is trash.

>Divine Comedy (1472)
you even trying pseud?

The Witness is the most Veeky Forums game I've ever played. Start there

Pharaoh (1999)

>ripoff Hunger Games

You've heard about it?

>that entire list of anime
Add Shoujo Tsubaki or Memories and you've got a tip top list for impressing pseuds you massive gayboy. I'm ashamed to share the board with you.

These games will literally give you autism. It is dangerous to recommend stuff like this without a warning...
