J.E. Sawyer Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Read what I wrote, J.E., not what you want to see. I said "nearly all aspects." And your "nearly all aspects" statement is arbitrary. You draw the line of "what you want your character to do" using nebulous criteria. Why draw the line at individual attacks? Why not pull it back to a lump "assault" roll for the round? After all, we already know that you want to kill a target, right? Why does the player need to be involved in determining how you do it? Heck, shouldn't your character also be able to determine the appropriate targets to attack? And why don't we get rid of dialogue options? That minigame allows too much of the player's skill to seep in, allowing him or her to "game the system". Managing inventory? Minigame. Man, have any of you guys enjoyed playing a rogue/thief character in any RPG? I mean, for doing roguey/thiefy things, not just backstabbing/sneak attacking guys? They are the most boring class in the world when they are played like their tabletop equivalents. Shockingly, I actually enjoyed playing a thiefy character in Oblivion because at least hiding and lockpicking had something more to them then mashing a button and letting random numbers generate until I failed a task. twitter tyme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llyranor Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 (edited) Haha, I remember playing a thief in NWN online. Outside of combat, it WAS the most freaking boring class ever. On the upside, it felt very cerebral because it wasn't twitch gaming! I felt it provided very deep gameplay. The Thief series is pretty fun.

Spider Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Stealth was easily the best part of Oblivion. It was really fun sneaking around in the shadows, and the lock picking mini game was decent enough (and character skill did have an impact on success rate, by the way). So yes, JE, some of use have enjoyed playing a thief in RPGs. Of course, I haven't posted and complained about mini-games and such either. And I think that as long as they're done well, they can enhance a game. Being better than Oblivion dialogue is a good start. Re limited scaling: I don't know which article talked about levelling enemies the first time you entered an area, but one I read said there would be some areas that if you entered them too early you would be mashed into a pulp. They also said that a specific enemy wouldn't magically get stronger. Ie all mutants would be at a similar power, except that mutants in the later game may have vastly better equipment and thus be a stronger foe due to that. but the creatures themselves would differ little. Re the suggested dialogue system: How is knowing the percentages in dialogue any different than knowing them in combat? To me both ruing immersion equally much (which is not very). If I have the right to know my chances at success in one endeavor, shouldn't I be given the same information in all of them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shockingly, I actually enjoyed playing a thiefy character in Oblivion because at least hiding and lockpicking had something more to them then mashing a button and letting random numbers generate until I failed a task. I enjoy my utility rogues. He runs around stealing the groups treasure, then backstabs the party leader at a critical moment so that the rest of the group dies and I get all the riches to myself! Isn't that what it's all about? Lockpicking a bunch of inane doors for no reason at all, however interesting the lockpicking is, is as boring as an empty soup can without any string. Having the lockpicking serve a purpose, that's where the fun can come in. In Oblivion, there's two quests lines where lockpicking can be important and have a purpose. Outside of that, it's pretty much crap. And heck, I thought the system in Oblivion was frustrating and far from fun. Then you get the Skeleton key and it stops being frustrating, but still doesn't bother trying to be fun.

Meshugger Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 Okay, let's say for a second that groin shots doesn't exist, the children have vanished and mini-nukes are everywhere for everyone to use, toasters shooting barbieheads are considered as weapons. But what i don't understand is non-drivable cars powered with nukes for our exploding pleasure, how does that fit in exactly? Where there nuclear powered cars before the great blast? Isn't Fallout based on that the nukes where dropped in the 50's? What?

Or better yet, the guy was involved in Fallout: Tactics or Brotherhood of Steel and was crushed when the fans ignored/publicly hated it.
