I think that reinforces the idea of silent judgements and choice in direct judgements. You and I reacted differently, came to different conclusions, but both felt they fit well with the narratives and themes.

Are we to discuss Yager, of which we have little detail or knowledge of their next project, or are we to create from whole cloth FPS game ideas we'd like to see?

Both...or none.

There used to be a signature here, a really cool one...and now it's gone.

It's pretty clear from the OP that this thread's actually "this obscure company should make my ideal dream FPS, let me tell you all about it."

I see no reason why not to derail this thread, after all when has a thread stayed on point? With the one about pictures of pretty girls being the exception.

I'd say the answer to that question is kind of like the answer to "who's the sucker in this poker game?"*

Did you guys had been spoiled before or why the refuse of using white phosphorus bombing? I didn't know what would happen afterwards, so I did it without any moral doubt. After all I am using stuff like nuclear bombs and such in other games as well, so why should I rage-stop the game here now? Seems a bit hypocritical.

 

It was only after everything was done that I realized what exactly happened, but before that, it never crossed my mind to stop playing simply because I had the task to mortar the shait out of them.

I tend to be spoiled on plots of games before I play them. But I don't know if I was spoiled on white phosphorous in advance or not.

 

I do know that I don't tend to do things blindly. I've been trained against attacking everything just because it's red (or white in this case). And the way the game was set up you could clearly see who were soldiers firing at you, then you see this trench of people who are just standing there. And I noticed it wouldn't let me progress until I hit them. You even hit them a little and the entire trench goes up.

 

It was kind of awkward yeah. But like I said, I felt I'd give them the chance to do something interesting with that.

Shot jokes but nobody makes one about their first game literary being called Yager.

 

I still have my Yager CD, I really liked that game

Besides, shouldn't a "classic" be a little older?

LOL "cult classic".

 

Linear standard cover shoot-in-the-face Gears clone set in a desert. Nothing special about it.

 

That really made it obvious you didn't play the game.

Oh I did. It's really nothing special.

You obviously didn't get the deep themes.

:biggrin:

 

It's one thing to say the themes fell flat, but to deny their existence is not a good sign for Morgie.  Comparing it to Gears of War is quite a stretch.

That seems really stupid.

I just finished Spec Ops The Line.

 

 I chose to shoot Walker at first, and that was pretty satisfying.  Then I played through the other ending (Or is there a third?) where Walker survives and gets rescued.  

 

I gotta say, this is the best shooter I've probably ever played.  I'm not a fan of the genre for the most part, but this one told a story that I found compelling.  It helped that it wasn't long.
