Playing Mass Effect.
It's, uh, really bad.
Just wait until you get to the repetitive "minigames", inventory full of useless crap and the longest elevator rides in the history of elevators.
(Unless you already got to them...)
And the Mako. Don't forget the Mako. Or the same sidequest copypasta'd eighteen-hundred times.
What class are you playing as, bhlaab?
-
And Karpyshyn. And Preston Watamaniuk, who wins the awesome name competition.
You mean Jay Watamaniuk?
Serious Watamaniuk is serious.
Possibly, although if it is, he signed a whole load of the K1 source scripts as "Preston" for no apparent reason...

Thank God I'm a talentless nobody.
Would it be in terribly bad taste for me to say "so were they"?

Is American politics always this dull?

There is only one political cartoonist.
I rest my casee.

No arguments here.

Gaider wrote Jolee in KotOR. It was his "Thriller", and will be forever remembered by it.
He also wrote HK-47, which was his Teaching Mrs. Tingle/other appalling Hollywood film that was nevertheless appallingly successful.

They're both egocentric and stupid.

Not to forget, the hero should suddenly turn from a schmuck, barely able to lift a shovel, into a master swordsman just because some powerful villain taunted him how he had butchered the population of the hero's village.
The powerful villain and his guards should also all look like the guards in Prince of Persia 1:
The hero is also saved from being slaughtered with his entire village at the last minute by a mysterious bardette who only joins the party early in Act II (if there's 3 acts. Act III if there's five), called Cheery Topping, who sings in rhyming couplets, forcing the guards to dance in circles. She's an old enemy of the Moderate Bad who attacks the hero's village, and her presence annoys him immensely.
Or is that too absurd?

I think it should be concave, so everything winds up rolling into the middle.
An excellent suggestion.
There should also be a large desert with a giant red mountain in the middle, inhabited by a strange species of desert-nymph, who entrap people to come and rest under it, only to terrify them away again with tiny amounts of dust. And then shoot them for sport.

Angles and demons.
The Illuminati try to blow up the Vatican with an antimatter bomb they stole from CERN Indiana Jones, played by Tom Hanks this time, tries to stop them by going on a treasure hunt across rome.
Why did this become so big, I mean one should never compare the movie with the book, but you have to admit the whole premise is pretty laughable. I left before it ended but i'd bet anything Obi Wan is the Illuminati infiltrator.
Maybe I'm just the teeniest bit biased, but I think this describes my problems with Dan Hack pretty well.
I'm just slightly shocked how many people take this sub-airport novel crap seriously, either as good writing, or as actually in any way accurate. I suppose that's modern education, etc. Insert rant here.

In fire.

Porting content from KotOR into KotOR II is forbidden, I'm afraid.
Also, the effect of looking like Bastila can be more easily achieved by using The KotOR Savegame Editor.

Oh, ramza...

Oh, and there should be a human kingdom centered around horses, usually in an area of wide open plains.
I really want to make a pun on Rihanna/Rohan, but I can't think of any.

Earlier in the week I got sizeable chunks of Logan's Run and Minority Report on the same day, and on terrestrial TV. Michael York's hamming is a wonder to behold.

No, it's not everything; but given how many missions require large driving portions, it is a significant annoyance.

For such a "great" game, Mass Effect has some examples of ****ing ****e design, and even then, seemingly deliberate attempts to flaunt how ****ing ****e the design is.
I've reached Ilos, if you couldn't guess.
explain?
The Mako drives appallingly in most conditions; for Ilos it's made to drive over running water, which apparently has the effect of making what would normally be slight adjustments in direction make the whole vehicle turn 180 degrees. To add insult to incompetence, you are then given 36 seconds to reach a certain point on the planet, driving through four particularly hardy enemies.
Naturally, the game does not auto-save before it dumps you into this, so when I ended up with the Mako crawling the walls, my reload took me about half a mile back. If that doesn't sound like much, on Ilos, half a metre seems to take an age.

<RANT!>
Bioware decided to make TOR. So no, it isn't.
Thank you, thank you. I'll be here all year. Probably.
-
You make that sound like a bad thing.
What's left is a twisted mockery, making soulless games, desperately wanting to end the torment, but being kept alive by the evil magicks of EA.
So the difference is that now they want to die?

Point is people shouldn't call him by his name, but by THE CHOSEN ONE .
Particularly in the obligatory gratuitous HAWT SECKS scene.

There isn't much worth looting, anyway.
