RPG elements that I would die for
Sarex replied to Djantari's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Stories (Spoiler Warning!)
To be honest, I really like what DA3 is doing. You capture castles and then upgrade, destroy or do what ever else will be possible with them. I would really like to see a mix between a game like PoE and something like Civilization (but simplified so it more of an feature and not the main point of a game). -
what is your worst rpg game ever played?
Sarex replied to darthdraken's topic in Computer and Console
Now that is the problem I'm facing, while there are games that had horrible gameplay (PS:T), I can't remember one that I didn't finish because it was too bad. Hmmmm.... I guess maybe Arcanum, but to be honest I was a kid then and didn't really get how to play it (My English wasn't good enough and I didn't get the crafting), so I'm hesitant to mention it. Damn, I guess it's hard to remember the games you quit playing. -
No romances confirmed

I swear this forum could be a poster boy for strawman arguments and hyperbolic statements. Oh yeah and lets not forget metaphors that make no freaking sense in regards to the topic being discussed. -
Race and gender affecting gameplay
Sarex replied to drizzan's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
But then again that is more then any other game did, so that should tell you something. -
I agree, this year will be a treat, I am even interested in seeing what becomes of Torment. But first, bring on Castlevania LoS2, that demo really psyched me up for the game.

You are going to wait a while, as the devs are not even sure if they are doing a sequel to dishonored next. http://www.ign.com/articles/2013/08/15/dishonored-developer-discusses-next-project

How is it a horrible stealth game?
-
Demo is out for Castlevania Lords of Shadow 2. The graphics on max are great and do not require a high end machine, the controls are much better on mouse+keyboard then they were in the first part. Also there is a cinematic video at the end of the demo that made a mess of my underwear.

Glad you chose to not go through with the stretch goals, I really dislike what Star Citizen is doing.- 253 replies

Race and gender affecting gameplay
Sarex replied to drizzan's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Dude, I hate to brake it to you, but it was a joke. I was just getting ahead of the train so that this thread (http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/64997-body-types-and-video-games/) doesn't spill in to here. I even gave you a like on the original post. I really thought that the "GIRL POWER" bit was a dead give away. -

I want to hear some good swear words and insults when I play the game, otherwise it will be a complete failure. -

Suspension of disbelief, also a lot of great science fiction writers where called out on their writing in regards to science not making any sense in their books. I personally don't mind faulty science in science fiction books, as usually it is not the point of the book but just a backdrop. What part of the story didn't you understand?

Race and gender affecting gameplay
Sarex replied to drizzan's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Don't be sexist, just because I play as a girl doesn't mean I should be treated differently. Women in Japan are being denied their rights because of their menstruation and you make a post like this. You monster! GIRL POWER!!! -
You misunderstood, PS:T writing was average compared to stories you read in books and so is Infinites, I was not comparing the two. To be honest while the story of PS:T may be better (in some parts), the character development in Infinite blows Torment out of the water. Though I must admit it has been a long time since I played Torment, so the story and characters aren't really fresh in my mind as they are for Infinity. Maybe I'll try and do a replay and see if I can do an honest comparison between the two. edit: To add it's striking that infinite causes such polarizing opinions, I haven't met a single person who didn't either like the game or hate/think it was pretensions.

Hmmm, I can't be like that, because then what's the point. To be quite honest, while PS:T had a great story for a game, it was maybe average for a story on it's own. If I want a great story I will read a book and no game or movie will match what my imagination can conjure from it. A game should have good game play, that is it's purpose, if it fails at that then it fails at being a good game no matter how good the story is, which is not to say that story doesn't matter. Bioshock Infinite, for an example, had above average game play and a great story and it made for a fantastic game. It wasn't the most revolutionary game play but it was fun and it had a great story to pull you along. Games are a media that require interaction from a player and just having a good story can't accomplish that.
