I played barkely for the first time after reading this thread and greatly enjoyed it. its short and very funny. some jokes havent aged that well but "Jordan, you motherfucking baka, you sick motherfucking goddamn BAKA!" will never not be funny as hell

the things that felt most out of place/dated where the money being called neo-shekels for obvious reasons, and the pump screeds because ppl dont really post in that super earnest dweeby way anymore

Endorph posted:neo-nazis call all money 'shekels' as a reference to the idea that the jews control all money in the world cant really blame the devs for not predicting the rise of fascism in america in 2008

Endorph posted:I mean its not even that its problematic i just dont think calling money neoshekels is a kneeslapper it would have been funnier if they stuck to the joke of calling money different things like in the tutorial where its gald and zenny

Groovelord Neato posted:a burger king chicken fry being the most powerful healing item is great too. (and the greasy dew left behind being the second most powerful.) i thought the dew thing was a reference to like yggdrasil leaves and dew. its probably both

Groovelord Neato posted:it really is bizarre that the guy comes up with this tactics thing and doesn't think hmmm let's make this the rpg's combat. probably because they wanted the game to be based around quests and exploration and that doesnt really jive with tactical gameplay.

super sweet best pal posted:Just finished Avernum 2 and that's tactical enough while having quests and dialogue. Lunchmeat Larry posted:that's... not really the case. Original Sin etc those are good counterexamples but also those games are more in the D&D mold, doesnt seem like the style that this game was trying to ape

Lurdiak posted:Too many writers, Xjam's personality being too passive, bitterness seeping in and Hundley's very different and much darker writing style all make sense to me as reasons for the tone not being very fun or funny. Then you add in the fact that the art is no longer stupid looking stolen assets and there are no constant references to stupid real world poo poo like dunkaroos and space jam, and it all compounds on itself in a very unpleasant way. the duergars where already assholes in barkely 1, its just that they were oppressed assholes. if anything siding against the genies and destroying the careful ecological balance that kept the duergars in check should be the canon outcome

Shanty posted:I think it works on Necron 7, because the "penalty" is a scene of Wilmer getting kicked out on his rear end, which is its own kind of reward. Instead of "mission failed, retry?" you get a little world building event, which, while it is scripted, is all the more grounded because it's something you could have prevented. Can't save everyone on Necron 7. It's a really refreshing approach to vidcon design, and exactly the sort of thing you'd hope would come out of a kickstarter. except it was an unworkable mess that helped kill the game so maybe dont do it
