Wow, I guess I triggered some manchildren with my middle-of-the-road "eh, it's all right, I see what they were going for" post back there. I'm sorry.  The center looks like the far left or right to people on the far right or left. Namaste.

What "they were going for" was two people locking themselves in a room without input from the rest of the writing team to force the idiotic vision they had that contradicted drat-near everything leading up to it, and made no sense in a vacuum or in context of the trilogy at-large.

That's how you feel about it, sure. Like I said earlier (but oddly wasn't quoted on, hmm) I guess I'm just not as emotionally invested as some people so I didn't take things so personally. \/\/\/

ME3 is rushed and badly paced and has poor level design. So much was cut from Palaven and Thessia it's a wonder anyone imagines what they got was the intended product much less a misunderstood good game. People point to Tuchanka as the good part because it's mostly finished.

It was also the only part where the writing didn't poo poo itself and actually had a satisfying resolution to an issue that had been a major part of the whole series

Oh yeah. Tons of stuff was cut, that happens all the time, no joke. Unless you're, say, CD Projeckt Red.

Would you guys support a kickstarter for a new game led by whoever led the ME2 team? Considering the amount of remakes and spiritual sequels funded by that site, I doubt we won't see a ME-related one during the next decade.

chiasaur11 posted:With millions of dollars in budget and a remarkably free hand. Nah, they just spent years trying to reach a ridiculously high target of a) switching to Frostbyte and getting it to do RPG stuff and b) randomly generated planets, which predictably didn't work. Andromeda the game we played was rushed together in 18 months after everything else had to be thrown away but that wasn't "Just slap the name on and it'll sell, right?", it was the result of spending too much time and effort on trying to get multiple things that nobody has ever managed to do before done in one game. Randomly generated 3d action game environments are a hill that many foolishly overreaching developer has died upon.

I'm not enough of a gamer to get into the whole sordid world of why designers make the decisions that they do. So I don't know why the game has a complex crafting system that hobbles you early in the game and becomes largely irrelevant later on. Is there a general trend towards "make everything like a MMO" even in games that aren't MMOs?

Man, a gaming food thread would actually be pretty cool. Would give me the motivation to try out the bread recipe from Arcanum.

Try the bread recipe from Ultima 7 where you use a bucket of blood instead of a bucket of water to cook a loaf. Then feed your human blood bread to that child soldier you recruit in the starting city. You're the avatar of virtue so it must be the correct thing to do.

I didn't play Witcher 1 or 2, and went back and read all the books after halfway thru 3. It really felt the game just assumed you read the books to begin with, while still doing an excellent job of fleshing out the characters even if you didn't. I wonder if not giving the wild hunt leader a charcter arc was largely because that's all been covered before. Similarly like Geralt's relationship with the emperor is super vague and confusing unless you've read the entire series. I just assumed it was a stylistic choice because they didn't want to go into everyone's back stories.

No. Pillars of Eternity was the only game I've ever kickstarter'd. It will remain the only game I'll ever make that mistake on.

My Witcher 3 gamer food story is that I met a polish guy who worked at a mobile game developer at a 4th of July cookout in China and he let me try some vodka his dad made in his basement in Poland and it was good. Game developer beverage technically. I made pico de gallo and it was good and sort of held people over waiting for the charcoal which took way too long to find. The guy hosting the party was a goon who plays a lot of DOTA so THAT'S GAMER FOOD

Thundercracker posted:That's interesting to hear. I didn't play Witcher 1 or 2, and went back and read all the books after halfway thru 3. It works because the plot of W3 is that Geralt isn't actually the centre of the story, he's just a guy in dad-mode running around trying to play catch-up with his daughter. Fleshing out the Wild Hunt doesn't matter because all Geralt needs to know is that they're evil elves after Ciri.

Also, chicken and dumplings. Comfort food at its finest, and involves boiled bread.
