No romance!
bugarup replied to Wormerine's topic in The Outer Worlds: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Forums on fire off the shoulder of Bioware.com. I watched pan-species tentacle fan-fic seep over the Tannhäuser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. Thank the Lord. Serves you right for reading fetish fanfiction in the first place. Why would you even do that? Ran out of books? Magazines? WC air freshener labels? -
Are we sh†tting on Obsidian games here or just sharing general unpopular opinions? Can I say that I cannot think of a piece of fiction that I loathed more than "Undertale"?

Anyone wants the code for Fantasy General? It appears I already own it somehow. Probably as a freebie from some other promo campaign.

"A slave obeys" -- was spoiled on this one, yet it still was so very powerful; SOMA's end -- the moment right after launching the Ark and then Earth's reveal later. Love when fiction hurts me that way; On the other end of the spectrum -- showing the dead cat to random people in Icewind Dale 2; Meeting the first Controller in Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl; Leaving Doc's house in New Vegas, looking around thinking "I'm home".

SW: The Old Republic - Episode VIII (May RNG Be With You)
bugarup replied to Blarghagh's topic in Computer and Console
I found this one better on the Pub side. I expected some boombastic overblown "Epic battlez of Epic Gud against Epic Evulz!!" dreck, but it actually was a fairly low key story about dealing with less impressive, but in reality more dangerous aftermaths of war like food shortage. The area is very beautiful, especially the library outskirts, and decos are fairly nice, I might farm some when it gets lets crowded there. Meanwhile will amuse myself by running around throwing snowballs at black-clad tossers with pretentious names. -

Yeah, lets stop with making RPGs altogether, because 10% of genre's fans are Codex types. -

Eh, makes sense -- people always complain louder against something than for, and folks who don't care about romances don't care to post about them either. -

NPCs refuse to talk with you because of your obvious . . . eagerness. "Star Wars: the Old Republic" has some options like that. You roll up to some NPC, hit that [flirt] choice and hear "Sorry, married. Happily married." Or "Dude, it's a war zone, there are lasers shooting, wounded people howling, gibs flying and you think this is is the perfect moment to hit on me?!" -

But what about very-not-vanilla or even better, creepy, dysfunctional and destructive romances? Sure, you could experience those in real life too, but I (and 9 doctors out of 10) strongly recommend against it -
Sometimes it's dangerous to make a truly great trailer -- because if the game that follows does not match expectations (and chances are it does not), outrage happens.

Me, I find it really amusing, the idea that supposedly grown-up people feel so scared by mere presence of romances that they actually cheer in relief when there are none. "Hey guys, look -- romances! BooOooOOOooOOO! " -

Do you mean shotgun wedding or Francis? ...wait, it's not important. The best either way. -

Where did you get this info? Steam's page has nothing on OS yet. -
Abandoned Fallout 3 for New Vegas the 245th run. It's amazing how Vegas is better at...well, everything. Anyway, INT2 CHA2 character who's good at killing things, hiding and surviving and bad at everything else is often frustrating -- so many failed (often funny though) speech checks, so many boxes unopened! You don't notice how many of them there are in the game when you just habitually pass them. Also, methinks Lonesome Road is way overtuned, even with a truckload of health and defenses all it takes is two swipes from a deathclaw and it's game over, so unarmed build's not viable at all -- unlike everywhere else. Also2, shot a cistern of drug c0cktail into the system in anticipation of Rawr, but poor critter bugged as he always does and just stood still and watched reproachfully as as killed him from the safe distance. Oh well. Also3, low CHA+no Jury Rigging = exorbitant repair prices & forever broke Courier, but why does Lonesome Road's robo-repair interface care if I'm ugly? Cheating bastard.

By peppermint liqueur you mean mint-flavoured vodka, not an ethanol-with-syrup thing, right? Would be too sweet, while if it's vodka, I'm definitely trying this some time soon. Anyway, my recent discovery: good old White Russian is also delicious if milk is hot and is just as good for sore throat as traditional hot milk-and-honey, just much, much tastier.

It applies make-up so outlandishly tacky and garish that everyone who looks at you gets stupefied on the spot, of course. After Old World Blues I cannot ever take anything "Foooorrrrbidden!" seriously and so all those forbidden things make me very happy. And I am totally playing that new cowardly rogue.

Pathfinder Kingmaker is bigger then Deadfire
bugarup replied to no1fanboy's topic in Computer and Console
Not sure if I'm buying this. I did love adventuring with Khelgar and Neeshka (Sand can go drown in fetid overflown outhouse for all I care), but that's because Obsidian's writing chops can elevate even the troperrific pile of NWN's generic fantasy, and nothing I've seen so far of Kingmaker's writing can even remotely compare with Obsidian's. It's so bland I'm feeling they delegated that task to a neural network. Anyway, did anyone finish the game yet? I've heard that was mission impossible for quite some time. -
Clickbait title, there is nothing about F4 or 76 in the thread.

And I felt in my soul I needed to post this: Totes prefer it to Bible's teachings -
Or you can become a horny floating skull that hits on other floating skulls like Concehault and only turn into angry skull after he rejected you, because he absolutely would. Also, "cool looking robe" is an oxymoron. They all look like you're just out of bath so the only two things that go with them are wrapped-up towel for a hat and a mask. That would be my two simple things, btw.

Who's Yoko Taro? Relative of Piko Taro?
