imo credits are for post-epilogue stills or something similar

Modern TV is pretty good about giving you legal alternatives to :filez: without having to get an actual cable package.

it sounds that way, yes, but if you want to watch it digitally on STARZ, you need to provide proof of subscription from your cable provider :v:

You can directly subscribe to Starz streaming from their website without getting cable involved. You have to pay the same fee on Amazon so it's not any different

Shadowrun isn't terribly grognardy. You'll want to highly specialize in one combat tree because you can't diplo everything, but because of the nature of the way many of the maps and encounters are designed, flanking and good positioning is merely beneficial rather than essential. I mean, unless you're playing on the highest difficulty. You can still get screwed by the rng though.

it was better when special attacks were, y'know, special. i get that mp (tp) management is lovely, put the things on cooldown or make your magic regen fast based on how long it's been since you used a skill + the number of regular hits you've done in the meantime. when every single attack in the game has a callout, it loses its charm :geno:

The only game goons swear by that I recall really not liking was Shadow of Mordor but that was hyped everywhere and me disliking it had far more to do with it not being my type of game.

i'm not sure what my problem was with shadow of mordor, i think it's the setting. i just can't get into lotr for whatever reason. the rest of the game was pretty cool aside from the whole thing where it's more effective and more cinematic to do finishers on orcs, so i never really got to see the rivalry system ramp up. it did feel a little bit budget coming off of ac:black flag, too.

To be more serious, even though I didn't overall care for the story, I thought Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles did some very interesting things with the fog robbing people of their memory so they forget what they're even trying to do, and the world is kind of caught in this terrible existence where no one really has a past. Like at one point a character murders his father because he forgot why he was seeking him out or who he was and let rumors about his dad as a dangerous warrior shape his perception of his quest, so he eventually believed he was trying to stop him.

yeah it's just too bad that crystal chronicles is the kind of game where you skip everything so you can get back to beating up monsters with your bros

like seriously, it's a very specific genre of game where you really don't want to put in story, or cutscenes, or really anything other than an extremely tenuous reason for why you're out punching progressively more powerful poo poo with your best friends

ImpAtom posted:

I suspect the actual reason isn't "fantasy stuff is DUMB" but that an enemy who is capable of killing anything it looks at in a single glance would not be very fun in games, which is also why basilisks that show up elsewhere also tend to either be missing that ability or turn people to stone. They could not use a basilisk but when your entire gimmick is mythological creatures it's not surprising when you do.

Yeah my mum is an awful cook, unseasoned vegetables boiled to mush. She was never great then one day read that salt was the work of the devil and ugh.

my mom was an ok cook but my dad was so picky that basically all we ever ate was stew and meatloaf

that said, i did inherit his taste buds to an extent so i find most types of pork, and cooked fish, to be really gross

oh yeah and hawaiian food but we did considerably less of that once i developed my taro allergy

StrixNebulosa posted:

So I've been wiki-hopping and I found this article about player types made by a guy in the 90s.

And it's fascinating? I'd mark myself down as a Socializer if I had to pick one (as I love games that are heavy on stories - and experiences I can then relay to friends, like cool deaths in roguelikes) but reading out the other types and thinking about that is just cool.

it's pretty cool but according to that test, i'm basically tied between achiever/socialiser(but they're opposing on the chart?) and i'm more of a killer than an explorer, which is strange, because the only time i've ever griefed was when a brief stint where i followed high-level players around in ff11 dressed as a male stripper and /danced. personally, i'd identify myself as a socialiser/explorer. but like you say, that questionnaire seems to be weighted towards an mmo experience.

that said, when playing with friends, story is basically negligible and we just wanna go around doing poo poo and clicking through any dialogue, which may be why my explorer rating is so low and my killer rating is so high.
