Oldstench posted:The narrator in Transistor annoys the poo poo out of me. Actually, just about everything in that game annoys me. I really don't like Transistor.  Though I am curious is it the setting or the noir feel? I am biased because I really liked that game but still curious as to what you see as flaws.

I will give AC4 this, Kenway is both the character in that game I liked the least and the one I came to enjoy the most. It's not an amazing game but I felt they made the character turn around in a meaningful way through his actions by the end. For a game that I bought strictly to shoot pirate ships in that was a pleasant surprise. He was no Ezio but he is def my no.2 favorite int he series. The new guy is AC:UNplayable is just loving boring. How the gently caress you make a revolution that literally consumed itself in violence boring is beyond me but they did it. Also every chest in the game requires you to log into something else to open it.

Gestalt Intellect posted:It’s the worst and least ethical form of play, taking the naturally constrained single encounters of Chess or Go into the heart of an infinity spiral rotating out from the center of a box of microprocessors built out of a grand network of exploitive labor practices around the world, creating a transfixing hallucination sublimely disassociated from the networks of labor required to produce it. The friendships formed in message boards and YouTube comment threads offset by the number of lives pinned in place by the economic conditions necessary for the creation of such hallucinatory machinery, offering the great thrill of achievement for having done nothing but press a few half-inch buttons, hypnotized by the unseen patterns passing through the screen, scrotable only to those others who’d undergone the same rite of initiation and spoke the secret lexicon. This is a amazing.

All this talk of yojimbo made me look up Gilgamesh from FFVIII. Because I liked the way he looked and forgot how he was acquired what he did. .. and I found out apparently he is a dimensional hopping something and is the same character throughout all the FF games and has a storyline and wow why did I ever think poo poo like this was cool.

Mister Adequate posted:Sorry but Gilly is cool and good and you are a nerd if you don't love him Its less that the FF8 Gilgamesh wasn't cool (I still dig the weird prosthetic arms) it's more that you look at any video game thing and now there is always all this loving strange rear end over complicated back story. Why can't he just be a cool summon? Instead he has to be the brother of the mailman of FF1 who went on to be the main recurring villain in FF2 who fell in love with his twins doubles cousins favorite dog in FF6.

im pooping! posted:The more fun part is where you forget that you can flirt with yeoman Chambers through the whole game but if you invite her to dinner, you still have the choice to not sleep with her so you can still be faithful to whoever you want. If you forget that little nugget, Chambers won't offer to feed your fish and you lose out on a +5% bonus in Mass Effect 3 because save editors will mark Kelly keeping your fish as you cheated on your Mass Effect 2 girl/boyfriend. And you figure this out like 6 hours into your Mass Effect 3 file and the only thing you can do is replay Mass Effect 2. And probe planets again. I never understood why chambers was a semi romance option. Why give that weird in between option and not give the option for her to be the person you are interested in? Video games are weird and romance options in them are weird.

I basically shut off all of their abilities except ones I could combo with or ones that would bring downed allies back to life. But then I ended up playing a sword and shield warrior since I let my brother pick my character and they are pretty much unkillable. I had to quit a dragon fight because the dragon couldn't hurt me and I couldn't really hurt it and my mages had all tried to get in close for some reason, thats when I changed the AI. Also wait did everyone hate GTA 4? I liked that one, it was fun/interesting and the main character was at least semi relatable rather than being a mafia killing machine in a miami beach shirt (not that this wasnt also acceptable.).

I like that Far Cry 4 had a fairly good auto drive. It let me faff about while driving to the next mission. But I do remember for some reason every time I would get into the car I would throw a rock through the windshield, I feel like it was a control thing like I would want something else and would just hit throw stone for some reason.

I really liked the nemesis system but I distinctly remember getting to the end game and the big bad group of orcs for.. I dunno sauron or whoever and not knowing any of them. Again really liked the system it was just weird for them to be like "remember me?!?!?" ".......no. have we met before?"

The general removal of lethal parries from AC was what i hate. I know there was an argument that parries trivialized combat but it felt very on brand for an assassin. Dont get me started on when they introduced enemies you just couldnt loving fight without specific weapons / level. loving AC3

CJacobs posted:For what it's worth "don't talk about playing games on your resume" is legitimately bad advice, mentioning that I play visual novels got me the comission making the trailers and some promo materials for this game. If I hadn't been specific they would probably have passed me up in favor of artists who had done anime/VN work before. You play video games for fun, why would you be afraid to talk about that fact with other people? I will adjust my statement. If you are interviewing in the game industry then yes please feel free to talk about games. If you are applying for a job outside of that? Dont mention it. And to be clear feel free to answer "I like to play videogames" as your response to what is your hobby or whatever. Its not shameful but its not something to document unless its specifically applies to a job. Telling me you are a real problem solver because you once beat Majoras Mask is not helpful.

Maybe I didn't explain it well. The person who handed me the resume had legitimately put that they had beaten RPGs (I think Morrowind specifically? Its been years so the details are foggy) as a sign of their ability to solve problems. This was not presented as a hobby or what but rather as part of their educational background. Past that tbh youre right people put whatever they want on their cv / resume since its theirs to do with as they will. Also this is now the derail dragging this thread down so I will cease. oldpainless posted:I regret all of my posts but I especially regret making this one Hell, same.

When you 'talk' to their statues, a dialog comes up that allows you to use items on them, such as Soft etc. Nothing will work, of course This is cool but I am also some how hypocritically also a huge fan of things like in FF9 where you can save a character with an item.

Not to go restart fallout 4 talk but every loving one of us knew the "twist" the moment that first loving cutscene ended right. I was actively disappointed in the game from the word go because it was so blatant. Far harbor was nice though. loving hermit crab scared the poo poo out of me.

I never played Other M and I never will but it may be the game I hate the most. I dont know what the gently caress happened around then but it was like every person in the studio lost their loving mind about that character. Samus has always been kinda like the doomslayer to me. In that she's basically a one person unstoppable army. So the sudden weird submissive character shift to having Men in CHARGE weirded me out to no end. jjack229 posted:I only played a few hours of Borderlands 2 and that does sound like a terrible premise. and yet somehow it REALLY works!

There's bits of it in Fusion too. Its always sad to learn something was good in spite of its creator and said creator then returned full of authority to ruin it so it fit their vision.
