I'm gathering a list of self hosted open source and drm-free games and platforms to host for friends. Feel free to add some.

Fightcade
RetroArch
Risk of Rain
Terraria
GZDoom
Cockatrice
0ad
Minecraft
Openspades

If retro, the better.

TES3MP. It's a fork of OpenMW adding multiplayer functionality. GPL3.0-licensed Morrowind Multiplayer, essentially.
>GZDoom
Consider adding Zandronum as well. It's like GZDoom but specifically focusing on multiplayer.

Why are penalties for leaving a game early even a thing anyways?

Then you're too much of a chad to be playing fucking CS:GO in 2021 anyway. They turned it into fortnite lite and revamped everything to cater to e-sports, it's simultaneously the most gentrified and childish thing ever.

It really makes autists seethe for some reason, either because "muh investment" or "muh piracy".

>> No.7448649

>>7448621
Nostalgia for "original hardware" is the driving force for 90% of their seething. 99% of people on 4chan don't actually care about piracy. "muh investment" and "muh piracy" are just thin facades they put up knowing "muh nostalgia" is a very poor argument, and "muh original hardware" holds less and less water every day due to highly accurate emulators like mednafen.

>> No.7452680

>>7452661
I guess so I don't have to make my own thread about it, I'm also looking for any older game that has dedicated servers.
For a while I was hosting NOLF, Tribes 2, Red Faction, Unreal, Doom (Zandronum), aaaaaaaand...
That might be it. But ideally I'd like to have a rotating schedule of various games.
Better if they're games that don't have as many servers running anymore, or the server lists are shut down, though gameranger or whatever makes that less of an issue these days.

I've noticed a lot of clear bots on 4chan these days.
This site is fucked. It's going to be so flooded with antagonistic autoreplies as to be unusable.

what i don't get is why not have both?

it's not like dedicated servers & matchmaking are mutually exclusive and each has positives & negatives.
