Like us, lowborn demons also have a wide variety of video games. These are some things I’ve discovered about them through my Lowborn companions.
They have all of our genres and more.
RPGs, FPS, fighting games, arcade games, zombie games, etc. Yep, they’ve got it all, and a bunch of genres I don’t even know the names of since they don’t have English equivalents to translate to.
They can copy and import games from the human realms:
Lowborns are able to import games from the human realm by going directly to a human game company and copying all of the assets. Humans don’t exactly have astral technology security in place, which is why this is very easy for them.
However, when they import human games, they usually make the games a zillion times better, because most human games wouldn’t sell as they are in the Lowborn realms. Often they undergo improvements in every single aspect of the game: graphics, gameplay, controls, bugs, etc. The only thing that is usually exempt from this is the storyline, although the storyline may be extended or edited if the ending(s) were unpopular across the entire fanbase.
Are humans ever playable protagonists?
Yeah, as most games that come from the human realms have human protagonists. Some Lowborn games do have human protagonists however, usually the RPGs and FPS.
What about indie games? How hard is it to make a game in the Lowborn realm?
Indie games actually make up a pretty big portion of the game market, about 30-40%. It’s because it’s so easy to make games in the Lowborn realms because of their high technology. Unlike on Earth, in the Lowborn realms, making Indie games or assets for games is actually a pretty stable source of income.
Thus, big companies have to compete by making their games HUGE AF. Like on such grand scales that Indie developers (currently) could never hope to meet, even when working in groups. Like when big companies make a world for their games, it’s an entire world. As in multiple countries filled with cities that actually look like cities and are as big as cities, thousands of types of monsters within a single game, etc.
Do they have fully 3D stuff and/or Virtual Reality?
HEEEEECK YEAAAA THEY DOOOOOO, yes to both! Like bruh they’ve got holograms and shit...I literally cry everytiem...Although holograms are still new and thus super expensive.
For full virtual reality- yep, you can play games in your sleep! You just run the program on the Lowborn console that you keep near you, and your mind will be able to connect to the game. You don’t need to be asleep to experience full VR, however it seems to help connect you to the game more. You’re not put in any sort of sleep paralysis to be able to do it while awake, you can still move normally, though most games will automatically pause if you get up to walk or some similar movement task.
If you have a Lowborn companion with the right console, they should be able to connect your mind to the console so that you can play their games!!
What human games do they have?
Games I have played the Lowborn Version of and Can Confirm: Skyrim, Pokémon, Minecraft
Games I have heard that exist in the Lowborn Realms: The Fallout series, Metal Gear Solid series, Super Smash Bros series, Assassin’s Creed, Mass Effect series, Dragon Age series, Devil May Cry series, Pac-Man, the Spyro series
Games my companions do not think exist in the Lowborn realms: Borderlands
Games that do not exist in the lowborn realms: Hyperdimension Neptunia
Note that this is not a full list, these are just the games that I and my companions know of, there is bound to be many more.
Retro gaming is very popular, especially in arcades.
Bruhhh their arcades are fuckin LIT. Like one I went to was easily the size of a supermarket, and it had two restaurants inside. Everything was dark and glowy and the games were neatly organized by type, like retro games took up nearly the entire back while the more modern games were at the front.
Is the music epic?
YEA the music is epic! Ngl Lowborns have the best electro music.
Are there princesses like in Zelda?
The “damsel in distress” trope is extremely unpopular there, even met with hostility from the gaming community. However, “twink prince in peril” is a rather funny and good one.
Are Lowborn gamers still sweaty and kinda annoying?
The blatantly sexist/homophobic parts don’t exist in the Lowborn community, thank...Lowborns for that. However, gamers are still rather competitive and enthusiastic (and kinda sweaty). “Let’s Players” are very common and still just as enthusiastic. So basically still “gamer-ish” but without the extremely bad parts. Annoying but not bad like the human gaming community is.
Like if u get a Lowborn gamer companion this will probably happen at least once:
So basically very excitable and pretentious but not outwardly bad like our human gaming community is.
Also expect to get shat on for our low tech human stuff lmaooo
Feel free to send in any more questions about the Lowborn games of video!!
