Re: Fable games

I found 2 and beyond (I never played the first) to be unique amongst rpgs. You can not only play them mindlessly, but also beat the game and get all achievements mindlessly playing. Good for scratching that rpg itch but with zero effort. This is good because if you're mindful, the terrible writing and stupid mechanics will piss you off.

TLOU was brilliant, I don't own any sony consoles, but I watched a video walkthrough, and it was a great video game movie. :)

The gameplay was pretty lovely, and going through it just to get lovely soap opera level writing was extremely frustrating.

Every time I see a post from you, you find a new way to be completely wrong about something. it's truly fascinating to me.

An easily exploited combat system that also has the most finicky stealth I've seen isn't good. And if anyone actually thinks the writing is good, well i won't insult you because it's extremely rude to make fun of the handicapped.

i might play breath of death and cthulhu saves the world some day, but right now i have way more big classic jrpgs to play and the mountain keeps getting bigger and it's gonna get astronomically large once trails in the sky 3rd and the crossbell games are translated

At least for Breath, I'd recommend playing it for a short time as a breather between games. It has silly references and the Main Character makes fun of everything rpg. It doesn't have much depth so far so I don't think a long play of it would be as fun.

I do really enjoy how the levelling up works. And that there's mini dungeons just for good items.

I picked up Black & White from a bargain bin years after it came out when I was like 12. I had no idea who Peter Molyneux was and had zero expectations for the game so it blew me away. Years later I got extremely hyped for Black & White 2 because he promised the moon. That was my first taste of the Molyneuxperience.

Did you enjoy Creature island? I know I did.

I own 2 but never actually played it because the mouse symbol drawing controls somehow got worse.

The problem with DIAMOND IS NOT CRASH is that it follows the widely perceived best part, and followed by the first example of the creator going insane with weird stands. So it feels less cool than it would if it was bookended by stone ocean or part two.

That said, part four has the best final battle. And the only big bad that is as entertaining as Dio.

How do you idiots not see the racism, though?

I'm not joking, how is it 2016 and a basic character creator doesn't allow you to create literally 1/3rd of the human race? Think about that. Assuming that we vary in skin tone from white to brown to black. Think about all the olive and tan skinned people whether latino, south american, middle eastern, east indian, aboriginal australian, spanish, or a mix of any of those or just mixed in general. The Division's character creator has like 8 faces you can choose from, 4 of those are white, 2 of those are black, 2 of those are asian. How does that represent me? I can choose a white guy and give myself a slight tan, but that will never be MY SKIN TONE. I can choose a black guy, I can't change his skin colour, and I'm stuck with the stereotypical hairstyles, such as corn rows, an afro, bald or buzzcut. How does that represent ME?

I'm not either of these, I'm in between and I can't choose myself because someone at Ubisoft just forgot about 1/3rd of the human population and chose to cater to white and black people, of which they couldn't even get black people correctly. And asians can choose like two faces and that represents all of japan, china, korea, etc. That's clearly good enough.

You know, in Deus Ex, I was able to choose a latino looking JC and I thought, finally, someone that isn't a white protagonist that I can relate to. But this poo poo in The Division is just too ridiculous. Some characters are going to be white or black or whatever, but in a game where you create the protagonist and they don't give you option to be your own skin color...

Can you imagine playing Dragon Age and they said "white people don't exist in this game, so there is no white skin tone." Can you imagine?

So now think how I feel. Think how all the tan to brown people feel when they have to choose a white or black character because they can't choose a character that best represents them.

If you think this is taint reaping, you're just a racist, sorry to say.

I see the racism, and the poster that originally brought it up said it better.

I was stating that your posts are so bad, they make me miss a poster known for baseless statements and otherwise melodramatic shitposting.

I got threatened "I will destroy you" by a football kid in HS. In front of the main office, surrounded by my friends. I just smiled and let him yell. To be fair I was laughing and making fun of him because he earlier tried to get in a fight with the varsity tennis player that also placed 3rd in the state for body building.(which in rural America is pretty impressive)

Nah, they're very good at what they do, which is get you to waste time running around a giant area with pretty scenery with fun things to kill.

The story, gameplay mechanics, and sometimes the gameplay itself are all mediocre though. Bad to gamers, good for casuals. One of those markets is larger.

The best magic in all games is in Dragon's Dogma.

Set yourself on fire so you can climb all over a griffin like a firey roach? Check

Shoot an arrow that turns into a giant ball of light to see for miles around? Check

Send goblins flying into the air by raising a giant pillar of ice? Check.

Meteor storms and tornadoes so intense they slow consoles down to single digits fps? Double check.
