TheHarlequin Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Will New Vegas feature ****ty cutscene forced tactical stupidity? You know we love that, especially when outnumbered 1:4. Like Dragon Age then? *chuckle* you had combat cutscenes in your DA game? More focused on the 'forced tactical stupidity' and 'You know we love that, especially when outnumbered 1:4' comment. World of Darkness News http://www.wodnews.net --- "I cannot profess to be a theologian; but it seems to me that Christians who believe in a super human Satan have got themselves into a logical impasse with regard to their own religion. For either God can not prevent the mischief of Satan, in which case he is not omnipotent; or else He could do so if he wished, but will not, in which case He is not benevolent. Fortunately, being a pagan witch, I am not called upon to solve this problem." - Doreen Valiente Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoonDing Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 (edited) Dragon Age has many instances when you're talking to a group of dudes led by a mini-boss with a huge sword/axe, and when the conversation ends you're right in front of 4-5 melee guys (sometimes backed by a group of archers and/or some mages)... not really a problem for a tank or mage, but for a rogue or archer? Hilarity usually ensues after that. Edited December 2, 2009 by virumor The ending of the words is ALMSIVI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would CRPGs be without that brilliant feature. Enemies positioned so good that Carl von Clausewitz himself would be proud and you just happen to wander right into most unoptimal position imaginable. I couldn't stop laughing on some of the Dragon Age encounters. Let's play Alpha Protocol My misadventures on youtube. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notice how I can belittle your beliefs without calling you names. It's a useful skill to have particularly where you aren't allowed to call people names. It's a mistake to get too drawn in/worked up. I mean it's not life or death, it's just two guys posting their thoughts on a message board. If it were personal or face to face all the usual restraints would be in place, and we would never have reached this place in the first place. Try to remember that.

TwinkieGorilla Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Wrong as usual, Volourn. actually, no. he's spot on and admittedly i never thought i'd utter such a phrase about Volourn. Fallout: "Dependence begets subservience and venality, suffocates the germ of virtue, and prepares fit tools for the designs of ambition." Fallout 2: "If a man is offered a fact which goes against his instincts, he will scrutinize it closely, and unless the evidence is overwhelming, he will refuse to believe it. If, on the other hand, he is offered something which affords a reason for acting in accordance to his instincts, he will accept it even on the slightest evidence. The origin of myths is explained in this way." Fallout 3: "I think Dad is a pretty cool guy. eh kills aleins and doesn't afraid of anything..." hopw roewur ne?

Hurlshort Posted December 4, 2009 Share Posted December 4, 2009 It's a little hard to get upset about Fallout 3 writing when the rest of the industry is at the same level. It is functional writing. I'm not sure why you folks expect more than that, there are probably less than a dozen games that have had excellent writing ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
