Shadowrun: Dragonfall Director's Cut

You can't start with Dragonfall, it's so much better than Returns. It'll make it really hard to go back.

It's a shame Returns didn't get its own Director's Cut, it could really use it. I think it still has some typos.

I decided to start with Invisible Inc because I figure my infatuation with it will be over quick, being a roguelike and all

Also re Shadowrun I thought you could load the original campaign into the Director's Cut and it works like 100x better or something???

Returns isn't bad or anything. It's just a much shorter and less polished game than Dragonfall, so it's definitely better to play it first. I mean, it's self-contained enough that you can skip it entirely, but I think that'd be a waste.

I'm really enjoying MGS3 in spite of the fact that I am bad at it and also the fact that Hideo Kojima is a pig. I wish EVA would zip up her jumpsuit but I'm placated by The Boss and Ocelot who are the two best characters in this entire series so far.

Kojima can be pretty equal opportunity with the fanservice what with the series' love of man rear end. Hell 4 has two of the most homoerotic fights in a video game ever.

If you press the first person button whenever eva is around you find out snake is always staring directly at her tits.

No it's just that after wow stagnates there's like nothing new on the MMO horizon.

there's nothing pushing the genre in a direction that spurs innovation or new franchises.


That and they might finally make warcraft 4 once Wow fully stagnates.

FF14 is good but it's still just Final Fantasy skinned WoW and will eventually follow its fate, and probably a lot quicker.

The Koreans looked at Japanese fanservice and thought to themselves "we can do better than that."

I'm sure there's at least one crazy nationalist Korean out there who claims that Koreans invented fanservice 2000 years ago until the imperialist Japanese pigs stole it from them or something.

FF XIV really is a lot of fun, but sadly wow still has the better endgame if you are a raider.

Every time people talk about raiding in MMOs I picture this:



Then I remember that it just means a really long and boring dungeon that you automatically fail if one of your 50 teammates makes a single mistake.
