Bombadilillo posted:Cause fallout specifically is about stories of people in the wasteland. They added multiplayer and took out ALL npc's. Reading this made me realize how loving empty of anything interesting the Commonwealth is (compared to the previous four Fallout games). There's tons of places but apart from like three places, every person you meet is just a big bad meanie who starts shooting at your player character the moment they see them and it's a lot more like Doom for most of the time than it is like uhh... well, like Fallout. It's like a MMO game without the other players.

Long Hours Crew weighs in: https://twitter.com/JosephJBroni/status/1044076948220084224 Best part is, some bootlicker comes in and says "oh but you're the boss/owner who stays longer than the rest of your employees" and the dude replies "yeah that benefits me personally, so I do it"

How the hell do you remove all NPCs? Is this some sort of experiment?

God itself asked Bethesda to make Fallout 76. But only made one limit: you shall not make NPCs. Is a silly limit and I think a super mutant vendor walking around with a pet, and a dead body on the floor that have a audio record next to it is pushing that limit.

It's an interesting thought, try and increase immersion by ensuring that every other human you run into in the game is an actual human being. Unfortunately that sounds like it'll just make the world all that more dull and lifeless. This really sounds more and more like a generic zombie MMO with pipcrap splattered all over it.

Actually I don’t think this is a fair criticism. There’s actually a lot of stuff out there: interesting little non stories like a couple of skeletons in a pose that implies something that happened or minor NPCs or just holotapes you happen across. I’ve played the game four times and I still find new things I hadn’t seen before like the cat rancher If you just blaze through the storyline you miss 90% of it.

yeah it'll be exactly as broken as it ever is, but in multiplayer this time. so even more broken I guess since you have more chances to hit a bug

Got an ad e-mail from Square-Enix for something and the Yoji Shinkawa art immediately caught my attention. Pretty hard let-down to read "survival action shooter" in the text below  (E: It was an ad for Left Alive.)

haveblue posted:I thought failing to recognize the interiority of others was one sign of certain types of mental illness? Back in the 1970s there was a popular psychological theory that posited that until about 3,000 years ago, human beings really didn't have a clear sense of their internal monologue as something that existed within their own minds. Instead there was a bicameral divide between the voice that commanded and the body that obeyed, and people would receive this voice as coming from outside their own consciousness. In this light mental illnesses such as schizophrenia or psychosis would be unrecognizable as such. Your own inner monologue really would seem like the voice of God or spirits commanding you to action. It was called Bicameralism and remains interesting, although controversial as it's more of a social development theory than one that can be clinically verified.

Man, it’s so tough to convince people around me that Odyssey is actually really good because people have been so burned by Ubisoft already. It’s hard to blame them, especially when Far Cry 5 wasn’t that far back, but.....it actually is so great though!!! It’s like a hornier Skyrim with sailing

I've been having a great time playing AC Odyssey. It's a huge open-world game, it's messy in places, it has a hundred different systems that sometimes work really well together and sometimes don't, but the scale and setting are amazing and I've enjoyed pretty much every place I've visited. Haven't put so many hours into a game this quickly in a long time! I'm also super addicted to the photo mode. I've never been a big AC fan before but if they keep moving in this direction then I'm totally down.
