Got 100% and platinum. Didn’t buy any loot boxes, nor did I have any incentive to. If anything, the free ones they gave for doing online modes did nothing but detract from the game- The orcs you actually interact with in the game world and force into your army are all way more memorable and cool than just getting some random guy out of a crate and putting him out on the board. I can’t imagine anyone is buying any with real cash, seeing as how the game throws high quality stuff at you all the time, to the point where you can lose 4-5 legendary guys in an online siege and it hardly even matters... this whole fiasco has probably done nothing except draw negative attention to what would be a pretty well-received game otherwise.

If this makes you ask "then why didn't they just make poo poo easier to see if it's so important," then guess what: Sauron asked the exact same thing, because power corrupts.

Spec Ops and BioShock Infinite, alongside the Deus Ex and Dishonored franchises, are games about ideas. Successful or not, these are games that are clearly trying to do similar work as the greatest novels and films; they want to present something difficult and thorny and use the particular abilities (or in more academic terms, affordances) of the video game medium to explore those ideas. this part is worse than the big pink text

the abilites or as mensa card carries call it affordances of spec ops the line allow the player to test their might at writing stupid worthless garbage about pieces of poo poo. in academic terms, this is called a metaphor, because spec ops the line is not actually a piece of dookie from a butt in real life.

Out of curiosity I watched like 25 minutes of cutscenes from this game and not only does it all seem to take place in the same grey canyon but the ending is one of the most absurdly dumb things I've ever seen.

I skipped most of the main story cutscenes. If they’re going to abandon the LOTR canon why even bother having it be LOTR

Lumpy the Cook posted:Update: I ran into a Warchief last night called so-and-so the Bore and his intro speech was a couple minutes of him drawling on in monotone about Mordor politics. He pissed me off so I decided to mess him up by shaming him (which demoted him to captain and brought him from level 36 to 31) and then I spent the next several minutes running around the region shaming him over and over again (he also became dumber while I did this, he went from talking eloquently to being like “ok boys... we’re going to attack.... ohhh nooo why can’t I remember” and “my mind isn’t as uh good like it used to be, what did you do to meeee...” until eventually I shamed him a fourth time, so he became so-and-so the Deranged and couldnt talk anymore, just scream) I was really curious what would happen when I took him all the way down to level 1, but unfortunately when he was level 6 a friendly archer (not even an elite archer, just a normal one) one hit killed him. I bullied an orc so hard he turned retarded and then he went out like a bitch I had a captain I recruited who betrayed me after I killed his blood brother so I tried to do this to him but after shaming him twice the next time I found him he had a little army with him and he had pounded a bunch of nails into his skull and pierced bones through his flesh and painted his body with hands to match the one that the shaming burnt into his face. He was calling himself “the Unashamed,” screamed at me about how he took his branding as a mark of pride instead of disgrace, and then beat my rear end immediately because he was suddenly over twice the level that he was when I recruited him. Hell of a surprise.
