Look Sir Droids posted:I more or less agree with your point, but the book and movie analogy is really poor. You can read a book or finish a movie. The book isn’t stopping you from turning the page and the movie isn’t making you press pause or watch the same scene over and over again. I think the point was that nobody would refund a movie ticket for a lovely movie, let alone a movie you just didn't like.

Cardiovorax posted:Yeah, but they're still just expanded remakes, so if someone's going for a series playthrough anyway, they may as well get the plot in order of publication. Just a suggestion, though. Yakuza is like the one series where this isn't the best option because Yakuza Kiwami 1 and 2 literally had new material put in them to make them fit better with 0, as weird as that sounds to say.

GrandpaPants posted:I think the episodic nature really worked against it, since if it were a complete product, people can talk about it and discuss the story, but I don't think anyone was speculating on what was coming next and whatnot. I'm not even sure if anyone even cared about LIS1 in that way. People definitely did the thread fallout over the ending was apocalyptic at the time.

See this is what happens when people milk franchises for way too loving long, you run into problems in the license like "no sexpot female characters" so you end up with Sexy Shelob and the ladysnake in Harry Potter.

Morter posted:I really liked Guilty Gear XX on the PS2 when I was younger, just for the fun rear end kicking and characters. Guilty Gear Rev 2 is the latest one and the last updated one with the most characters. It has an outrageously stupid name and an outrageously stupid store page, to the point where this graphic was made. That said game is good and full of character and background details in the animations. It's genuinely my favorite fighting game out of this generation.

If I start typing slurs here does someone in 4chan gets to scream that Hitler was right? Is that how that works? idk, but I fully cop to using the domestic abuse and transphobic forum because I really really don't want to use reddit so it would feel hypocritical on my part.

Gay Rat Wedding posted:such a shame the game went downhill after they kept adding dumber and dumber items that totally broke the role of classes in half or in at least one case was just an objective upgrade over the stock. I remember in the dev commentary they talked about how they carefully designed each class to have a distinct silhouette so you could instantly know what capabilities you could expect from an enemy player when you saw them, and in one of their blog posts when they first started adding new weapons, they said they were designing the additions to reinforce class strengths rather than remove class weaknesses, which was very smart design. sure would have been cool if they hadn't completely loving 180'd on those things later Remember when they said they wouldn't introduce cosmetics that break the Sixties setting/aesthetic.

What I get from this is that spending money on video games is immoral, because you're being tricked into exchanging your money for useless garbage. Honestly that is probably logically sound, so fair. mycot fucked around with this message at 02:23 on Sep 27, 2020 |

Artelier posted:I'm looking at some gameplay videos of Thronebreaker and is my assessment of it being more of a puzzle game correct? When I say that, I mean it doesn't seem like you collect cards and grow stronger like normal Witcher 3 Gwent, it feels like you get specific decks to tackle specific challenges? In the main story you can customize your deck but yes it's basically a very long collection of gimmick matches.

Kibayasu posted:On its own it took of the simple video game concept of gradually unlocking new areas/finding new information and applied it to, while still certainly a video game house, a much more realistically realized house. It also lays out its different stories in a series of compelling breadcrumbs that you can help but speculate about as you find each new piece. Yeah I think everyone has memory holed the entire time period but Gone Home was basically one of the games at the center of the "The women are taking away our hardcore games and replacing them with casual/mobile poo poo" gamergate posting era.
