Arkham City, bro.

Dark Souls stage demo Finally a game not dumbed down for PC.

I think we can all agree it looks heaps better than Dragon Age 2. Even Katarina's b00bies are better than Isabela's.

Anjali is a poor man's Cortana

The game looks similar to Sacred 2. And no, that's not an insult, since Sacred 2 still looks good today.

Both games had some good writing, some bad writing, some good quest design, some bad quest design, and a mediocre plot. See what I did there?

BS their art department is very good, and encounter/level design in most games reaches genius levels at times. Not sure if serious. In fact, I can't think of any good encounter design in any Obsidian game. Think of Act 1 of Neverwinter Nights 2, think of the epic gnolls in MOTB. Art & level design are nothing to write home about either. Patently untrue.

Good old hypocrisy. Not really. FNV still has sucky elements that got carried over from Fallout 3. But at least the story and game world isn't such a big ****up, which is the point here. Not that this belongs into this thread here now, though... The point is that the "hardcore Fallout fans" already hated Fallout 3 when it was just announced by Bethesda because it wasn't 2D isometric. Then when Obsidian made another variation of Fallout 3, suddenly it became awesome because some oldtimers from Interplay/BIS worked on it.

Was Rob Liefeld involved in the art direction?

The First Templar isn't bad either, it's a budget title but pretty much blows DS3 out of the water in every department. It has 2-player co-op.

Kidding, right?

Good old hypocrisy.

I only play with FemShep anyway...

They're both annoying bitches, to be honest. Luckily I nuked Ashley.

I don't see why you bring up EPIC. One's character's decisions affecting the game world + how the story plays out is a common staple of modern story-driven RPGs, regardless whether they're personal stories or save-the-world ones. MOTB and KOTOR 2 are both personal stories, but in both games your character's decisions greatly affect the game world. Same goes for the Witcher games, and one could even make a case for Fallout: New Vegas.

I thought Miranda wouldn't be a party member.

I think Morrowind had around 200 books, Oblivion only added 10 or so new ones. So yeah, Kirkbride must've been busy.

I'm sad to say it, but Uncharted is the new Tomb Raider.

Too many cutscenes & QTE to deserve being called a game.

Skyrim @G4 part 1

Hahaha. They've should just kept on churning out fancy CGI trailers made by Blur to keep fooling their unsuspecting future customers.

Will Patty be a joinable companion? I'm guessing that voodoo chick from the trailer will be one as well.

I'd like to see more of OverStrike.
