I've been playing Fallout Shelter on Steam and that is a game that should've had more thought put into what its mechanics are saying. It is really weird that the optimal strategy is to have every single woman in your vault pregnant at all times, and that being pregnant makes them flee in terror from all forms of danger, which the men must handle. I mean I doubt anyone making the game was trying to be gross but it is basically the ending of Dr. Strangelove.

That game is the epitome of "mobile game that could have been fun if they added in actual gameplay stuff." Such a wasted opportunity.

In Skyrim, does doing the side quests effect the ending? Like, if I complete the werewolf and thief quest lines before I finish the plot quests, will the game end with Skyrim controlled by the werewolf Mafia?

Guy Goodbody posted:What's the deal with Bethesda games? the only time sidequests have ever affected the main quest in bethesda games is morrowind letting you skip half the main quest if you've done so many sidequests that literally everyone in the region knows you're a super badass fallout 3 didn't have sidequests affect the ending in any noticable way and it was an entry in a series of games, that end listing off the effects of every sidequest you've done you can skip a part of the main quest in skyrim if you've already gone through one of the two war questlines though but it's literally skipping one quest that takes like twenty minutes

Thinking about it now, the whole "war never changes" tagline that Fallout games do is pretty silly. Because war has changed, that's why the world's a radioactive wasteland right now

Remember that in Fallout 3 Bethesda wanted to force you into one of two dumb endgame decisions even though there were other options that would make infinitely more sense, and if you tried to do the smart thing the game handwaved it away with "This is your destiny." People complained so much that they added those other options into DLC but even then if you chose the actual smart thing to do the game called you a coward for some reason

the best part is there's literally no reason you should sacrifice yourself because the process is so slow that immediately after coming out of a coma long after you've purified the water, there's still not enough water to go around and they still need your help to deal with people stealing it, so if you died activating the purifier your already dumb, pointless sacrifice would just make things even more difficult for everyone

Desperate Character posted:probably the kick-started dark souls board game which is coming out soon Yeah I think the game looks dumb but I regret not backing it just for all the figures. They'd be great for D&D or whatever. Hopefully I can get them on ebay for pretty cheap or they sell all the bonus models for something that doesn't cost an arm and a leg.

Speaking of jank are there any other non-CCG games that do a 'play to earn credits to buy booster pack' unlock system? I enjoy Mass Effect Andromeda when it works and right now it isn't working, and I need my fix of opening random packs to hope for cool poo poo.

Quest For Glory II posted:I loving KNEW IT Quest For Glory II posted:Molyneux on his new game: The only thing I think is wise to tell you is that it's very different. One of the things I am proud of is the number of different genres that I've attempted. At the moment, it's hard to peg what genre Legacy falls into. mutata posted:That Molyneux interview was about the least exciting or alarming thing I could think of. In fact, compared to the past he seemed downright subdued. Y'all are barking at shadows. Yeah, I was reading this article getting my pitchforks out because I love to hate on Molyneux for his complete bullshit, but... I dunno, it sounds like he actually loving learned something: quote:What are you up to these days? I think one of the biggest mistakes he made with Fable and Godus was he was just the ideas guy, so divorced from the programming that he just promised the world and his poor engineers had to try to make his dreams a reality. The guy getting back into programming is like the best thing that could happen to him, it'll force him to realize what is and isn't feasible before he starts making promises and coming up with lofty ideals. And he actually doesn't want to talk about his new game yet? Like, holy poo poo, he FINALLY learned! E: Oh wait though quote:Did Bryan Henderson, the player who was supposed to become the "god of gods" in Godus for finding the inside of the Curiosity cube, ever get his prize? Yeah that's horseshit Peter. That's horseshit. It was a publicity stunt, you already pulled it, and then you didn't follow through. "oh but we didn't actually profit" oh shut up.

I've heard Switches are hard to come by but the Target I was just at had like 8 of them. If you're in Austin and want a Switch. go to Target I guess.CharlieFoxtrot posted:Not only could you have two different companions that are unaffected by radiation, you had another one that gets healed from it, why would you make a radioactive room be the big life-changing finale of your game And then having the gall to call you a coward for it. Calling you a coward for trying to have a person who doesn't die fix the McGuffin was ironically the most cowardly story-telling decision Bethesda has ever made.

I just realized, MGS1 has a great your actions effect the ending thing. You can either do the thing or not. It's not a big moral choic3 or anything, you either stand up to the torture or you don't.
