carry on then posted:Mass Effect 3 has a mission or two that basically turn everything you know about the history of those two factions on its head. It's really great. you mean the mission with the really hamfisted "THE GETH ARE SWEET INNOCENT BABY CHILDREN, THE QUARIANS ARE DUMB RACIST GENOCIDAL IDIOTS" stuff? haveblue posted:Did anyone ever figure out the exact, reliable steps for making peace between them rather than having to kill one faction off? Last time I paid close attention to the game that was still somewhat of a mystery. do basically everything right in Mass Effect 2, and destroy the Geth Heretics in Legion's loyalty mission instead of rewriting them

...of SCIENCE! posted:People really like it when sequels intentionally deconstruct stuff from the previous games so long as it's a sequel by Obsidian. Otherwise they complain that it isn't internally consistent and is hamfisted and came out of nowhere. does your dick ever get chaffed, it must be pretty fuckin raw for all the masturbating you do about how much you don't like Obsidian, unlike those other goons, heh

PJOmega posted:What lovely politics? Bill Willingham's wiki page posted:He describes himself as "rabidly pro-Israel" and says that Fables "was intended from the beginning" as a metaphor for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, although he argues that Fables is not "a political tract. It never will be, but at the same time, it's not going to shy away from the fact that there are characters who have real moral and ethical centers, and we're not going to apologize for it."[5]

Dad Jokes posted:In Fallout: New Vegas, there's a holotape you can find in Boulder City near an NCR corpse that mentions several names of soldiers, like Jeffery Hui. If you look at the nearby memorial for NCR troops that died there, you can actually find their names on the memorial's model. You can also find names of people who are related to other NCR characters you find in Vegas, like Lt. Gorobets.

One of the earlier drafts had the Chinese caricatures from Fallout 2 being nuked by the Enclave, and I'm sad they took that out. the climax of Van Buren involved flying into space to the death ray satellite of the main bad guy evil scientist dude

there was also something involving a ghoul scientist trying to create "born ghouls", as in ghouls who were never once human and later ghoulified by radiation and instead created pre-ghoulified.

Lotish posted:Wasn't there another moment in one of the Tell Tale games where the text said, "You should remember this." Tales From The Borderlands makes a bunch of jokes with it. The "You should remember that." one comes up when a character tells you that the thing he hates most in the world is people lying to him (right after he kills a dude for doing so). At another point, if you slap Shade, it pops up with "Shade's face will remember that."

CJacobs posted:The same way it does in every other video game that's "sensitive" (read: pandering) to that kind of thing: There is no logical reason for it to ever come up without the player character directly asking about it so they instead have the character go out of their way to mention it just so the devs can go "look our game is PROGRESSIVE" as if transsexual and gay people just go around yelling about how transsexual and gay they are all goddamn day; so to ACTUAL gay (me) and transsexual people it just ends up being more insulting and the message is lost while straight white men and women applaud the game for being inclusive. these poorly written gay and trans characters just can't stop talking about how gay and trans they are BY THE WAY HAVE I MENTIONED I'M GAY

sticklefifer posted:I thought of that, but since the Borgias are your antagonists you spend comparatively little time with them - they're Assassin targets, which is fine because that's the point of the game. Palling around with every notable pirate and founding father in existence, not so much. Even the Macchiavelli segments did seem a bit much to me, but I think Brotherhood was the near-perfect balance, and also the best AC game. Black Flag was the best overall game in terms of gameplay (because ship combat owns), but that's because it shouldn't have been an AC game to begin with. The Assassin/Templar story was almost completely ancillary.: you also have Leonardo da Vinci as your own personal Q, stop pretending 2 wasn't exactly the same with historical figures

JebanyPedal posted:No it isn't. The writing is awful from a technical standpoint, it's just significantly worse in plot because it's just a wholesale rip off with weird poo poo thrown in to try and give it personality, and even though Alan Wake's combat is repetitive it controls amazingly fluidly, the use of slow-mo is great, and the actual weapons are satisfying. Deadly Premonition's gameplay, combat sections AND town sections is beyond loving awful. It is literally a heinous unfun chore to experience in order to get to some okay quirky characterization in over long cutscenes. *pulls sunglasses off face coolguylike* what do you clowns think this is... a thread about liking video games? i'll show you fuckers. you are going to regret the day you messed with me you bitch assholes
