Darque Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Diablo 2 was good. But Blizzard still sucks for killing off Starcraft: Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astr0creep Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 And the rest : Wizardry, Diablo, Elder Scrolls, Might & Magic, Ultima. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> What do these games have in common? How do you even dare to put Ultima and Diablo in the same category? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Can't you read? They're not D&D. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gabrielle Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 The title of the thread reads RPGs, doesn't say anything about D&D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astr0creep Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 The title of the thread reads RPGs, doesn't say anything about D&D. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The quote from the OP makes a comparison between D&D based games and others, wether consciously or not. The quoter seems to believe that D&D based games were "Old-School" and the others are "New-School", mainly refering to FPRPGs like ES games. Such a comparison is erronous, as during Baldur's Gate's reign, M&Ms, Wizardry, System Shock, etc were also quite popular. "Old-School" has more to do with technology, interface and gameplay than simple perspective or being skill/stats based. Of course my post was not as detailed as this one since : 1- I was in somewhat of a hurry, being at work and all and 2- I consider people here to be smart enough to read between the lines. My mistake. http://entertainmentandbeyond.blogspot.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newtar Posted March 31, 2006 Share Posted March 31, 2006 Old?? as someone who played the original D&D box set back in the late 70's at UVA with some of the folks that went on to form Iron Crown Enterprises (no we're really talking old school!)---I beginning to feel more like ancient dragon status--- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
