Kaftan Barlast Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 Im just clicking the order button for Beyond good and Evil and Longest Journey.

I managed to get the sh!t beat out of me once for failing to make the distinction. In my defense, I was twelve at the time, and unexperienced in the ways of racial tensions. Anyhow, I'm not sure about TLJ sequel, it's hella short, and looking to be a bastardization of the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaftan Barlast Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 My dear sirs. It is a wellknown anthropological truth that this type of linguistic is used in many western societies who consist of predominantly negroid races. Curiously it is not in use on the African continent itself, perhaps because the culture there has developed in other directions. Another curious fact is that other races have no such usage of slang words such as dego, wop, kike, greaser, spick and so forth and so on. Perhaps because those words lack the proper accoustic ring to their tonal character.

Kaftan Barlast Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 Is that 15 hours at normal playing speed or is it if you rush it?

He also gave an expected time for TLJ, which was probably a third of the time it took me. Maybe he's trying to attract non-adventure console types (Look, it's not long! It's nice and short and fluffy! Buy it! :D ) However, I reserve the right to remain officially worried. "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."

Musopticon? Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 I expect myself to get stuck on a hundred spots when I finally get to play Dreamfall; so for me the estimate should be at least doubled. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears.

Kaftan Barlast Posted June 23, 2005 Author Share Posted June 23, 2005 I got enough frustration playing the old DOS adventure game classics in my teens so nowadays I just use a walkthrough whenever I get stuck. But developers are friendlier with the puzzles nowadays anyway so I dont need the walkthrough that often. In the old days it was very much "use everything in your inventory at everything on the map until something happens" without any logic in it at all. <_< Or those grizzly potion mixing things.. gah. Or the greatest "No, you should have taken an X with you from two levels ago otherwise your game is broken." when you had fizzled the older saves.

Musopticon? Posted June 23, 2005 Share Posted June 23, 2005 I prefer my puzzles to be logical, not "use bubble gum on the balloon and..."-drivels. (Ten points for anyone guessing which game was that from) Or I just do like you did and use a walkthrough. I think that puzzles should show the player what needs to be done, but not how it is done. Otherwise you just end up trying everything on anything. kirottu said: I was raised by polar bears. I had to fight against blood thirsty wolves and rabid penguins to get my food.

That sucked. I remember that in the VGA remake of LSL, they included some rather absurd comments when you tried to do something illogical. Let's say you tried to use your razor with the watch, and the answer was like "So you get your kicks from threatening with a knife, don't you? Go find someone your own size!". Sadly enough, you had to do quite a lot of illogical things with the stuff in your inventory to beat that game. - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

SteveThaiBinh Posted June 24, 2005 Share Posted June 24, 2005 Discworld Noir was good - funny, with good dialogue and voice-acting (not sure about Lewton, but everyone else was good). The other Discworld games weren't so good - find object, use object, find object, use object... "An electric puddle is not what I need right now."
