was my reaction when I read the "40 endings" line. IMPORTANT NEWSFLASH: Not everyone is Numbers U and thinks like him. I know, horrible creatures, you avoid them whenever you can.

"Where's BIS in that? There is no BIS." BIS published BG.... so, yeah, technically, there is a BIS. <>

New TMNT certainly cna't be any worse than the original. Plus, they have a much hotter O'Neal this time.

"Interesting read—a well-articulated piece in the bigger debate of whether games are art and their dependence of the (technological) circumstances surrounding their creation. Unfortunately, its basis seems to be that the author just couldn't get into BG2EE, which is, in my mind, a very weak starting proposition. Doesn't really say anything of substance about BG2EE, per se." Horrible read. You did good nearly blinding me from reading such nonsense. "It makes perfect sense, the original bg-bg2 were a coding disaster that miraculously worked. They've had to go back and rewrite major sections of the code, which due to poor documentation and mind-boggling hardcoding breaks things elsewhere." L0L Horrible lies to make these losers feel good about themselves. 'Miraclously worked' HAHAHAHAHAS!

"Not every project needs to do 10x its initial goal." It's competition. People want their favorites to 'win'.

Well, Indiana will win the RS East. We'll see if they can live up toe xpectations in the playoffs since it seems everyone thinks they're better than MIA. L0L As for SA, good on them, but RS success is menaingless. No championship means they failed. I'll talk about them when they actually beat OKC in playoffs.

Spill your blasphemous opinions on CRPGs here
Volourn replied to IndiraLightfoot's topic in Computer and Console
Why are you trolling? I responded to someone's on topic post which last I checked. As did you, but you are just trolling and not posting on topic. As am I now thanks to your terrific trolling. Good job. -
"You won't find 40 endings with only slight degrees of variation between them." Uh huh. Other than that, all sound good." Yeah, I have my doubts they'll be wildly different. "There's a fundamental disconnect between Bioware and the audience for what constitutes "slight degrees of variation." Bethesda's an offender, too. But you think someone would catch on and just stop saying this stuff." Eh. Every company that ever existed does the same thing. Even the beloved Obsidian, BIS, and all the other 'cool guys'. *shrug*

I never even heard of ocolous til this thread. L0L

"But it is in some ways a betrayal of the public's trust," No. No;. No. Fro what I heard ( i don't pay attention to Oculus), they fufilled their KS obligations. They're done. they owe their backers NOTHING more. That's like me getting mad Obsidian after they release POE and them then releasing POE2 and asking me to pay for it? Why shouldn't they? They. owe. you. nothing. more. than. the. KS. promised. PERIOD.

"So by your example, because I don't watch gay porn and it doesn't excite me, I hate gays?" Miss the target by a lot. You aren't even in the same stratosphere. Yorua ssessment is silly. The vast majority of movies, tvs, books, etc. all involve people I have little in common with except being human. To Kill A Mockingbird is a fantastic films whose characters - even the bad ones - are very well done - yet by your silliness I cna't relate to them since I've never lived in the south US and enver dealt with racism in that matter. Also, while characters may be gay in BIO games they really aren't defined by their 'gayness'. Anders is defined by his desire for freedom from the Chantry not that he loves penises. Geez.

"Because the majority of the player base is not gay and thus they could not see them selves in the protagonist, thus I say alienated. Making games is all about hitting numbers, especially in the non RPG genre, it's all about identifying with the majority of your audience." Eh. I'm not gay and I don't feel alieneted. I'm not a dwarf and I don't eel alienated. I'm not female and I don't feel alienated. I'm not immortal and I don't feel alienated. L0L Let's be truthful. People feel 'alienated' because they hate gays. Simple as that. Just like when whites whine about black characters, blacks whine about white characters, the male/female divide; it's all about hatred of something different. Period.

Varric >>>> Korgan >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Oghren Hell, I'll take that dwarven child killer from BG before Oghren. L0L
-
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA! You serious or trolling? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
-
Varric is probably the best dwarf ever to be featured in video games. Just sayin'.
-
Nope. Same character. Just one that went off the deepend and snapped. He was 'annoying' in both games. Seriously, the guy was a psycho in DA1 always going on about a stupid cat and how tough he had it. It just continued on in part 2. It's called character progression. And, killing him the crazy person was a satisfying experience.

"This is Julian Freakin' Gollop" \Never heard of him so not much of a legend.

Collega basketball is boring. It's fake, it's evil, it's crap, and it's extremely exploitaive. Did I say it wa sboring and the players are largely wannabes?
-
Yeah, because dragons are little wussies who float around in the air during battles for ****s and giggles. theyw ant to chomp your head off face to face.Plus, dragons can't fly around forever. Plus, they live in caves. hard to fly around in caves eating dwarves and stealing their treasure. Don't be ignorant.

"KD is a better rebounder and shotblocker (shockingly)" They both average less than one block a game. Meaningless. "Everybody else lives in the real world where KD has straight up outplayed LeBron this year, though not be a large margin, as LeBron has been great." 1. You speak for everyone else now? Not everyone has drank the ';anyone but Lebron kool-aid' yet. 2. You ar eposting outside both sides of your key board. You claim he 'straight up out played Lebron' but 'not by a large mmargin'. That is meaningless double speak. Yeah, he needed 32 shots to score 51 points because he missed more than half of them. That's pathetic. James has outplayed Durant. Period. It's not even close. We all saw how Durant folded like garbage when his buddy became a cripple in the playoffs last year. Let's see him win a full 7 game series without Westbrook against a top team. FACT: MIA has the same if not bigger record vs west than east while OKC does way better vs east than west. Tells, me that MIA relaxes vs weaker teams as MIA knows it is menaingless. MIA/James ultimately won't be judge on RS. They could go 82-0 and they be crapped on if they don't win championship. Durant needs any type of success because he is just not at a championship level... yet. You ar ejust one of those 'anybody but James' yahoos who have latched onto Durant because he's 2nd best so you will push him to 1st when he isn't there. Also, the fatc you want to pretend that Durant is even close to James defensively is laughable. LMAO

"because fundamentally an evil character wouldn't possibly care if a region is destroyed by some archdemon." Huh? Evil doesn't neccessarily mean uncaring or inhumane. Most 'evil' people in real life actually do have people they care about. Plus, if an archdemon plans to destroy the world that often includes you - whether youa re good or evil. It doesn't descriminate.
-
There is no conversation. James is better and is the MVP. Stats don't show the whole story. Lebron doesn't hog the ball. hell, in tonight's game, he should 50% (better than Durant) yet ended up with only 15 points. Durant took 32 shots! and he got 51 points because there was a double OT. that's almost an entire 5th quarter and he likely, obviously, played all 10 minutes. Durant is nowhere near as good as James but the best player doesn't always win. if they did, James would have like 8MVPs in a row and Shaq would have more MVPs than he got. Durant is gonna win MVP but it's undeserved. NOTHING Durant has done this seasonmakes me ebelieve that player vs player that he is better or more more valauable than James. Even, kif OK wins the championship, I woudln't give him that since OK arguably has the better team. \ \The ONLY thing Durant does better is free throws to a big degree. And, James is 100x the better defensive player which is how MIA win. OKC wins by pure offense. (depsite MIA's 'lacklustre' defernsive rrating this season).
-
Great game by Durant but still no James. When James had his 61, he shot over 50%. LMAO \Durant is gonna win MVP. It's already been decided. But, it won't, when all is said and done James is still the better player. Period. This is just the way to play 'fairsies'. Can't have a guy win 3 MVPs in a row because it makes the other players look chumps.

"I would love for Obsidian or Bioware to make an RPG where the story is written around you playing the bad guy, or a bad guy and all your choices are different styles of that. It would be refreshing for "evil" choices to extend beyond just pointless insults or murder. They would need to figure out a system to let the player feel more pro-active though since villains are typically the instigators of events while the heroes are the ones reacting to things." Boring. Not refreshing, not original, not deep, not complex. The best would be to play a game where the player DECIDES if they want to be good/evil/irrelevant.

Butthurt Obsidioan fans rejoice. Not my kind of game it's good not to be pegion hold. That said, free? How do you keep employees employed if you don't even sell your games? That's silly. I thought this was a professional company. L0L Game just isn't my thing, though. Driving tanks would entetrain me for maybe a few hours and then I'd get bored.
