I can see how it looks like a subway map now, but I'm confused as to the goal of the game? Is it just about trying to get the most efficient stops?

So, I finally checked out this undertale game that everyone was talking about. I watched Dunkey play it, also I just learned he is not black  .drat, the music for this game is hella good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRw26sEEywY Game looks hilarious, but looks to be really short. Might just buy the soundtrack and watch a let's play of the game instead to get the story.

Lady Naga posted:Treating a story-based videogame like a loving book report is probably the gauchest thing I can think of. It's the same as not wanting to put in the effort to watch a movie and reading the plot synopsis instead. Not sure how it's gauche considering most people would skip past a pixel rpg and not give it a second thought. The plot was great but 2d pixel rpgs aren't my thing.

Jay Rust posted:Yeah, what people won't tell you is that random encounters are terrible and Undertale is like 50% random encounters. I got bored with it around a quarter of the way through (also because I'm bad at the bullet hell stuff) but I watched a Let's Play and feel fine about it. Yeah, I saw the bullet hell stuff on the videos I watched, the final ones seemed way too cumbersome and difficult for me to handle. I'd rather just watch a professional do it. Not a fan of random encounters either. Thanks for the input!

Lady Naga posted:Also Patrick Bateman is shown to be a horrible person in the film itself, unlike Aiden Pearce. Please stop being a complete moron TIA.  He was? I thought the entire movie was about the nuances of quality assurance in business cards?  Lady Naga posted:Only if you're unable to accept very basic concepts like "America has a problem with support of vigilante justice and violence as a means of conflict resolution, and media wherein a crazed vigilante murders dozens of people to resolve conflicts does not help that preconception." I've never played Watch_dogs, but I think everyone here is confused about what you're arguing. Media influences people, for sure. Maybe I see a donut and it influences me to buy it. It's a moot point. Everything has a degree of influence. You say that Watch_dogs encourages a character to make lovely decisions, and that's why you dislike it. Fair enough, but you seem to be implying that media should be obligated not to do that? You mention that a supreme court justice used 24 to justify torture. But is that 24's fault, or the justice's for being a dumbass? If I make a pet killing simulator that gives you achievements for killing pets, yeah that's insane and atrocious. But I'm not obligated by anything but my own personal ethics and my audiences wallets in publishing the game. So that's why everyone thinks you're implying censorship. Because otherwise yours is a moot point. People are going to buy what appeals to them, and the creators can support or chastise a lovely thing or character but they're not obligated to do either.

Lady Naga posted:I hope you don't see my one word response as aloof or dismissive it's just that what you are saying is so dumb that I cannot be assed to retread the same loving argument I've made three or four times now to deal with it. Lady Naga posted:Media can subtly reinforce previously held belief systems in horrifically negative ways and it's a lot more insidious than "bad games make bad people" actually. This is not really an argument. This is just an opinion. Replace media with people or religion or bear-watching or freedom of speech and it would be just as valid. Like the only responses to this I can come up with is, why should anyone care and what can anyone do about it (besides censorship)? Ravane fucked around with this message at 02:02 on Mar 9, 2016 |

Sleeveless posted:Now I'm trying to think of a protagonist in an open-world GTA style game who isn't morally repugnant. I guess the dude from Red Faction: Guerilla is good since since he's fighting an unjust colonial regime but he does that by destroying infrastructure, killing natives, and being complicit in torture so idk. The main character of Prototype is just trying to survive. Also he can kill people just by clumsily walking into them, he can't help it. Is he really evil? Or is he just a normal guy trying to live his abnormal life but errybody tryna kill him cuz he a zombie? It's really all self-defense.

Yeah, after I understood that this is what he meant, I stopped arguing. I feel like this statement could have been made clearer if Naga stopped posting like a thirteen year old on tumblr.

Dreamfall Chapters looks pretty great. It's on Humble, I'm considering getting it. I really liked the Longest Journey (except for the insane puzzle logic) and I didn't mind Dreamfall (though those martial arts sequences were horrendous). Dreamfall Chapters looks a lot more grounded. Def might get it, just because the plot is incredible.

Just one even. http://molydeux.tumblr.com/post/139297334589 quote:During Fable 2 I had this idea to give the player a choice at the end of the game to sacrifice their dog for more wealth. I made sure to be there when Colin[the QA tester] was testing this part of the game, I looked closely at his eye ducts during the process. He had previously chosen the option to save the dog but now he had to choose to sacrifice the dog for purposes of exposing new potential bugs. He must be a QA tester.

Stux posted:this applies to 90% of nintendo's library I agree. Besides the same iteration of Zelda every five years, there's genuinely nothing really fun on Nintendo's library (not talking about n64 games). Like if you take out Wind Waker remake for Wii U, all you have left is Super Smash Brothers, a game that hasn't changed much in gameplay style since 1999. And I think it has some Zombie game that looked really lovely. Hyrule Warriors looks alright, I guess. I can't actually name any other Wii U game off the top of my head, except like Wii U sports or something. There's Mario Maker, but I mean that's existed forever on the pc, it doesn't look fun at all, except for the super hard levels, so it's essentially nintendo saying, here create your own Kaizo Mario, we're too lazy to do it.

Golden Goat posted:Can we get a drawing of somebody pulling Ravane's mask off revealing that he's been the Taint Reaper all along? I'm not sure who the Taint Reaper is exactly? I guess he's just not well liked. I like nintendo, as much as the next guy, but I just agree with the sentiment that its library doesn't have much to offer (speaking specifically about the Wii and the WiiU consoles). Like you compare the PS2's library, the PS3 and PS4's library to Nintendo's library, and they completely outdo Nintendo. Does Nintendo have some absolutely fantastic classics? Yeah. I love every iteration of Zelda. I'm just not going to buy a new Nintendo console when that's the only game I'm gonna play on it. Though the 3DS I've heard has a decent library. But I'm not really much for owning handheld consoles, besides smart phones. Since the n64, the amount of decent games on Nintendo consoles has only decreased.

Macaluso posted:I have a stack of WiiU games and all of them are great. Mario Maker - boring, make your own puzzles game. maybe good if you really like old mario games. Maybe would purchase in a bargain bin for 2 bucks. Mario 3D World - never heard of this, not quite sure how this is different from other mario games since they've all been 3D since mario64 Yoshi's Wooly World - sounds like Unravel with a well known character Bayonetta 1+2 - never played, dislike most jrpgs Smash - Smash is great, no problems here. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze - never played any donkey kong games, but I like their style, so this is ok. Doubt it's better that all games on sony, but it's just an opinion. Captain Toad - never heard about this game, looks like a mix between Monument Valley and Mario. Would buy it for ten bucks maybe. Mario Kart 8 - After 8 iterations, it's still fun, but you'd think they'd change the cheapness of going from last to first almost immediately by using a blue shell and bullet bill combo. I like the Luigi death stares. Never heard of the wonderful 101. Xenoblade chronicles looks interesting, but seems too jrpg gimicky to me.
