What the first rule of circle jerk? Either lend a hand or fuck off ;) Unfortunately I forgot, and thus I am back on this marry go round.. As usual my point was swept away in righteous indignation for the cause (generally speaking even though I am replying to you). I was suggesting that you...

Context is everything. I remember an interview with Chris Avalon where he praised Beth marketing team, impressed by their early involvement. Are you saying that game design isn't\shouldn't be influenced by user input, has a better metric for mainstream titles, or just rant at (mainstream)...

Logically part of fallout lore... hmm Usually they start by making interesting and distinctly different enemies, then they add lore rational. For example Ghouls are slow and frail humans, while Super mutants are aggressive hulk-ish human - how they were created (radiation/FEV) and all the...

Assuming that you are asking just that, and not using this as segway to complain about writing. Then yes, everything Todd said is spot on. In FP openworld game, most of your time will be spent exploring the environment, and adding visual verity and more interaction options is important. The...

How is it better from technical and utilitarian standpoint for games like action-RPGs, built or casual crowd and offering limited number of actions/interactions ? ( e.g. good/natural/bad or aggressive/professional etc ) Also lists has been used in the same capacity before. But wheels does the...

So perks... what I gathered: You choose a new a perk each time you gain level (and probably quest rewards\etc) They gave each perk several skill levels. They removed level requirements, but keyed all perks to specific attribute, making your character selection more important. (Presumably...

Recommendation: Do not click the "view results" button, might cause an angry eye twitch.

Regardless of your opinion, that discussion and video should have given you a hint as to what is meant by the amnesia scenario..

The world looks more vivid and realistic. Its about world and interior design, think a long the lines of the silly "where is the food" meme

Dialogue wheels wasn't designed for a controller\consoles per see, it's an intuitive system designed with casual audience in mind, and while consoles are considered as the poster boys for casual crowd pretty much every major title cater to them regardless of platform\controller. Dialogue wheels...

You are artful with words, unfortunately some farts worth more than others. People lining up for what Beth offers, and as a limited addition it might eventually cost a little fortune.
