Sleeping dogs is the one that fetches your newspaper and is a good boy, Watch dogs is the one that scoots around on its butt and barks at the neighbours. And then monologues about it's dead puppy.

I have now been roped into commentary, presumably as retribution for making The Heavenator read Yogscast domestic abuse fanfiction.

Sounds pretty straightforward. An eye for an eye. I'm more wondering about why anyone would write fanfic, domestic abuse ones even, about Yogscast.

 Episode 3 : Uncut | Cut This week Aiden meets a 4Channer and we join an apocalypse survival group My guest this week is Poison Mushroom. She is currently doing a permadeath challenge LP of Final Fantasy Tactics. It hasn't updated in a while so she's told me to have you all bother her for updates. So go read that thread, and do that.

Am I thinking of a different sculpture, or is that thing supposed to be all shiny instead of white? When you were hacking into the apartment I also noticed windows don't reflect people.

I get the feeling whoever decided to put the meeting there wanted to show off what the game was capable of, and either nobody told him the game couldn't do that or they didn't realize it until too late. If I saw that thing in a game in the rain with even CLOSE to the right reflections my jaw would hit the floor.

So how about that Watch Underscore Dog? I guess this was done before the protag got switched from a husband to an uncle. Or maybe the artist never learned the protagonist's relations because a dead daughter and estranged wife and son make a whole ton more sense than a dead niece. I never really followed the game's development myself. Can someone clue me in, was Mr. Inconspicuous Leather Duster ever anything more than a brother?

Okay, that car stealth mission at the beginning, I couldn't do that the "legit" way, however there is a giant empty field of grass behind some buildings. You can drive up the sidewalk and through the grass, dragging a park bench in your wheel well, and the helicopters won't bat an eye because they aren't programmed to notice you if you're not on the streets.

This game is just amazingly unfun looking. Instead of being a Hacker GTA, we're getting bland Hollywood Script #75 with a few microchips thrown in. I am enjoying the uncut video conversation, specially when commentators start going into why the story is bad and more general commentary about how the industry in general is pretty poo poo writing anything other than ACTION BUDGET BATMAN

RedMagus posted:Instead of being a Hacker GTA Really thats what I was expecting, going off the first announcement trailers it looked like Aiden and Jordi were on the shady side of things and that they were also coworkers in the same organization. Well I guess Jordi is still a guy that does shady stuff, but when the trailer came out if you told me that Aiden was some knockoff batman who wanted to be a good guy I'd raise my eyebrow at you. Aiden was totally a fixer at the creation of the game then Ubi decided to make him a good guy. Which is weird cause going off the xp system alone the game clearly wants you to murder as many enemies as possible, though they try to make it not seem like Aiden is some psycho by putting "Child molester" in hostile's biographies. Really all it took was seeing Jordi's and Aiden's relationship in the first few missions for me to know that the story I was expecting was not going to be the story of this game. Also the game would of been much better if we played as Jordi instead.

I fell asleep with about 10 minutes left in the video. It wasn't the commentary, it's just that the game itself is so uninteresting. Most of that video boiled down to what, 70% driving in a grey colored area in order to get to missions and draw out gameplay?  The cliches are terrible. I figured that BADBOY17 was going to be a chick from the get go and the old guy killing the blabbering idiot was something Helen Keller could have seen coming a mile away. It's not engaging at all, either from a gameplay, storytelling, or visual standpoint.

I expected Hacker Stealth, or at least a level of stealth-viability that rivaled Alpha Protocol (since, you know, AP is about a soldier, and WD is supposedly about a hacker. Expecting the hacker to have more subtlety than the soldier seems reasonable) I kind of gave up on the game when I realized that: 1) I can't actually hack anything meaningful, at least not in free-roam. An EMP-device could do pretty much the same things as my phone (except facial recognition) 2) You're expected to use cover to fight in big fire-fights, not do everything you can to avoid having to fight people with superior training and/or weaponry.

Can we discuss how bad the dialgoue in the Clara scene is? Aiden: "You don't look 17." Clara: "Do I look like a bad boy?" Aiden: "You look like a wild card." Clara: "I hope I don't frighten you." Aiden: "What, do you have a reason to frighten me?"

FactsAreUseless posted:Can we discuss how bad the dialgoue in the Clara scene is? The legitimate best part was when Aiden creeped out the random guy. Asking for a "Badboy17" in a darkly lit area sounds like the start of a police sting. The cutscene went down from there. Clara and Aiden's exchange of "badass" one liners were just terrible. You could probably switch which character said what and it wouldn't impact that scene at all.

Wathing the first video, I get the impression that this game would be much better off story-wise if the magical hacking had been actual superpowers instead. It'd explain all the idiocy like power lines being connected to the internet, and would add some actual intrigue to the setting.

I love the disconnect in this game between that scene with the big mob guy and those sequences where you chase down a random crook on the streets who hasn't even committed a crime yet. Apparently it's okay to go all vigilante on small-time criminals and take a grenade launcher to half a dozen security guards, but killing a guy who just stabbed someone right in front of you? Naw, that'd attract too much heat. I'm guessing that the game's working up to the part where we actually take that old guy out, and it'd be too anticlimactic to just run him over with our invincible car, but come on! At least throw in a few more guys with guns so it looks like a confrontation you could potentially lose in.

I think the reason he didn't just kill the mafia boss kinda makes sense, since the guy has an entire mafia syndicate that would be out for your head if you even touched him.

I'd buy this if I wasn't almost certain that later Aiden is going to piss off a lot of people any way for even worse reasons. Really, Aiden drove that man to his death and his only reaction was "oh", and then he forgot about it two seconds later. He didn't even try to convince the mobster not to kill him since it didn't directly involve him.

The idea that someone can remote detonate grenades you're carrying - through the same system as your employers use - is just absolutely goddamn terrifying. This game really has no idea how it's painting its own protagonist, does it?

Glazius posted:The idea that someone can remote detonate grenades you're carrying - through the same system as your employers use - is just absolutely goddamn terrifying. Gaming writing tends to be attached to the idea that making your protagonist a horrible rear end in a top hat, often for very little reason, makes him appear to be cool, tough, and 'badass'. Rather than making him look like a petulant little poo poo.
