RPGmasterBoo Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 I think it's a sad thing that sex scenes are the most talked about aspect of their game period. Seriously it's 5-10 minutes in a 20 hour+ game. Besides it's the 2nd biggest issue on the bio forums. Well they are disappointing but not exactly a substantial reason to complain. I liked FFX I know most consider it one of the worst, but I found it really imaginative.

Meshugger Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Those "sex"-scenes in ME2, urgh. Garrus actually worked, but the rest? Were's the passion? Where's the lust? Bah. GTAIV atleast managed to make something tacky into something funny. P.S. FFX was awesome.

Orogun01 Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Speaking of which, does anyone knows if they finally show Turian or Krogan women? I get it that they are both patriarchal societies, but two 20 hours average games and not a single woman!

Purkake Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Going by what Neogaf is saying, there's no in-game Anti-Aliasing option, but as with all UE3-spawned abominations you can force it from your graphics card control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

213374U Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Thats the price they pay for making it accessible to every imbecile.You know, this comment triggered some sort of knee-jerk reaction inside me. But after thinking about it for a while and considering the huge success of things like Big Whorehouse, America's Next Retard, and The Cutthroat Brown-noser, I can only point out that old CRPGs weren't especially unaccessible... they merely lacked a strong marketing drive supporting them. That and, um, I don't remember being raped in Shattered Lands. *dons monocle* - When he is best, he is a little worse than a man, and when he is worst, he is little better than a beast.

Volourn Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 "Ever try explaining THAC0 to one of the un-initiated?" yes, and they elarned it pretty quickly. Thaco, is not a difficult concept to grasp. OMGZ The number goes down. Like golf. Like subtraction. OMG The horror! Sorry, I don't get where this cocnept that thaco is so some ubscure, complicated thing to master. In fact, the only time I ever hear that nonsense from is hardcore interent d&d nerds. Certainly, not anyone in the real world. Even random people who played D&D once learn it rather quick. The only thing that makes D&D or other games 'complicated' to learn is the sheer AMOUNT of rules to absorb. P.S. I gotz mez tha gamez! DWARVES IN PROJECT ETERNITY = VOLOURN HAS PLEDGED $250.

Yeah, that's probably a stronger point than the one I made. Picture someone new to D&D or AD&D, reading over every spell description and trying to figure out which ones are most useful.

Enoch Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 whoever has this game, how is the pc ui? good? or does it suffer from console-itis? I can let you know later today, but I didn't think that ME1's interface was too console-ized, and I haven't heard about them changing much in that regard. Except for inventory and shopping, both of which are radically different in the sequel, the only interface-based ME1 complaint I had was that mousing around in the galaxy map often took more real estate than was available on my mousepad.

To hit AC 0. What's hard in that?The problem is when you have to guess it. I played through BG2 the whole game without understanding it. All Swedish P&P RPGs use the "roll under your skill value to succeed" a la SPECIAL so I was mystified by this weird value. I basicly just used the coolest looking gear, not the best.

Deraldin Posted January 26, 2010 Share Posted January 26, 2010 Oh come on now. That is Mass Effect's "You must gather before venturing forth" and "Get me out of this hellhole" fro9m the BG games. I tried modding those out once. It just wasn't the same without them. whoever has this game, how is the pc ui? good? or does it suffer from console-itis? Will let you know in about 5 minutes.
