big nipples big life posted:more stuff I like the Pastor as a character, if that's the main dude I'd be kind of down; that said, both that one and the girl one have this very uncomfortable switcharound when both characters go from being sentimental to extremely vicious, where I am intended to feel kind of pumped up and excited. I did get excited when Jeff Bridges mechanic put a gatling gun on a plane, because that suggested that I can fly a loving crop duster around and shoot at meth-addled militia men. That could be a reason to play another Farcry game.

nigga crab pollock posted:i dont remember what mafia game i played but it was open world for some reason even though they clearly hadn't spent much time on the free roam so there was basically nothing to do except storyline missions and it was really fuckin bad That was probably Mafia 2 and all the open world game play was pretty much ripped out before release than put back in as DLC I think.. But all this talk about mowing down a clan rally makes me want to pick up 3.

basic hitler posted:That wasn't the message at all. The politics were a backdrop to a story about how you and comstock and all other dewitts are a loving scourge no matter what reality you're in and so elizabeth decides to smother you. The revolutionaries are shown doing bad poo poo and being less than the sum of its parts but that's not loving surprising, it just mirrors real life, and isn't a value judgement but a gameplay and marketing choice lol

Dapper_Swindler posted:yeah in the original ideas/demos. you were supposed to see the vox go full san culottes on columbia and just execute everyone/show trials and they were neutral towards you, and it would be up to you if you wanted to intervene. they cut all of that because it needed to be a loving cod clone with more "depth". instead its them shooting cops and soldiers. which you have done the whole loving game. i get why levine tried to do but holy gently caress he did it stupidly. The real message of Bioshock Infinite is that there are an Infinite amount of universes where every possible scenario has happened so nothing you really did mattered at all because there was another universe where the opposite choice you made happened.

They screw that up by saying "some things are always constant" at the end, and by forcing a choice which wouldn't affect an infinite amount of universes.

Youtube commenter on the Bar Owner video posted:I came here from the German Channel because there is more discussion here than on the German one. And I'm quite confused why it is censored here and not there, considering it is the same trailer with German subtitles. This beeping really ruins the whole flow of the video and the background music. For comparison:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvJ2Qj53nSE

Elukka posted:It's sold mainly to westerners and it's easy for us to accept Random Fictional African Country or Random Fictional Asian Country and while you might be able to swing a fictional state it would be pretty jarring to have it set in Not-US. I'm p sure the main guys developing and focus-grouping Far Crys are a million times more likely to have the vaguest idea what Tibet or "Africa" are actually like than they are Montana

Come to think of it, the only way the premise could possibly work (armed cult kidnaps unwilling citizens from US town, does not get supressed by FBI/National Guard in return) is if society has already broken down to the extent that there is no state or federal authority ready to intervene.

We turned of the cell phone towers, the nearest town is real far. If we see you leave the area we will kill the hostages. Probabaly not 100% realistic, but enough to buy into for the game.

Seems like they'd be better off just going back in time 50-150 years during the colonial heyday and setting games in that period. Sure it would encroach on Assassin's Creed and its dumb poo poo but would probably fit the whole "human beings become savage in exotic and extreme situations" things a lot better if you were a Belgian mercenary in the Congo Free State or some British twerp in Afghanistan during the Opium Wars or whatever.

I wonder how the plot is going to explain why the US doesn't just send the army in? Though that would be a fun final chapter, you alert the government and the FBI, ATF and National Guard show up and just wipe everyone out.

I want a far cry game set in a fantasy universe. Some dark wizard looking through a crystal finds a loaded arsenal on present day earth and opens a portal that sucks stockpiles of assault and sniper rifles and light machine guns and armed jeeps and all the usual far cry stuff and he hands it out to a bunch of orc followers. You're a commando dude who gets sucked in as well, and a good wizard finds you and teaches you Bioshock/Skyrim type hand weapon magic. You'll take down orks armed with AKs with either guns or magic and hunt dragons and griffons and manticores.
