Deraldin Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Different people have different tastes. I prefer the title of the game to have something relating to the game itself. Obviously, you guys don't. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I never said that I don't prefer the title to relate to the game (how many games have titles that aren't in some way related to the game anyway? ), but the title isn't a deal breaker by a long shot.

alanschu Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 (edited) Good games = good games. If you were to title Fallout "Bwatibatta" instead, it'd still be the same great game that was Fallout. Edited January 24, 2007 by alanschu Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sand Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 Nope. I bought it because I love the Planescape setting and also I didn't think the box art sucked.

Llyranor Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I bought it because I thought the game would have ugly naked men. I'm glad it wasn't misleading.

Volourn Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 I bought it because it used the IE, and I buy *most* D&D games. R00fles! DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 (edited) So do I. The only 6 DnD games I haven't bought were Demonstone, POoR 2, BGDA 2, Descent to Undermountain, Blood and Magic, and Dragonshard. Yes, I bought Hillsfar.

Dark_Raven Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 RPG dogs in general tend to be totally sweet. I remember Pariah from Fallout 2. Bad dog, baaad dog!.... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I shot that dog on sight. Not going to jinx me. Hades was the life of the party. RIP You'll be missed.

alanschu Posted January 24, 2007 Share Posted January 24, 2007 The D&D games I have gotten are the Baldur's Gates, Icewind Dales, Planescape: Torment, and an old Silver Pack that had a multitude of games, which I got because I was a big fan of the original Eye of the Beholder.

Sand Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 I still think that the best DnD console game is still Warriors of the Eternal Sun. BGDA can't touch it. :D Murphy's Law of Computer Gaming: The listed minimum specifications written on the box by the publisher are not the minimum specifications of the game set by the developer. @\NightandtheShape/@ - "Because you're a bizzare strange deranged human?"

Volourn Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 "still think that the best DnD console game is still Warriors of the Eternal Sun. BGDA can't touch it. " I like BGDA myself; but I do agree that WotES is the best console D&D game ever. In fact, though it's not the best 'role-playing game' it showed taht even in the older days; consoles can *easily* have a more 'Western' stype CRPGness to them. It was a fun game. :joy: DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sand Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 What? That I want a Fallout game out of a game called Fallout?

jaguars4ever Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 To be honest, I'm not too confident about Fallout 3: Morrowind with Guns. If Bethsoft do any of the following, then I'll probably think twice before buying it: -Forcing a first person perspective without the option of going 3rd person or isometric; -Forcing real time combat without the option of playing turned based; -Using a wiki style dialogue without any discernible conversational options.
