    Urgency in open-world games

    The thing is, if a game tries to create a sense of urgency, it has to mean it. You can think of so many games where you're told to go somewhere in a hurry and you can loiter freely and complete other objectives and still get the same result. It's not always true: one of cooler parts of Deus Ex...

    Always thought they should make a game about that Iroquois Pliskin fella from Metal Gear Solid 2. He just disappears halfway through!

    Morrowind thread!

    Kind of. There's always some graphical mods being released and every day you have new modders releasing their small house/town projects, but there's not much of a modding community anymore. I think part of that is because the Morrowind construction set is rather clunky compared to the tools...

    Playing as the "evil" guy/girl - Is that possible?

    At that point you're not the villain anymore, though, because you're fighting a bigger evil (or at least somebody evil enough to justify your actions). In this kind of narrative you're just a slightly less harmful asshole. But really, it's difficult to make a compelling story where you're 100%...

    That's cool. I freelanced as a photographer for a while. Terrible in terms of money but a decent way to develop skills without too much pressure.

    General Discussion Thread of DOOM

    Personally I'm in favor of giving criminals and murderers ridiculous nicknames, and there's a very legitimate reason for this: so many serial killers and sociopaths thrive on the attention they get from their crimes. They keep commiting them because they love the fear they cause in people, the...

    I had wisdom teeth removed yesterday and my face is so swollen I'm afraid to go out in public. My cheeks look like freaking softballs.

    Rate the above song and post your own.

    Generally not big on electronic rock but this is really upbeat, well edited and I like the pace. It's the kind of song I could put on the background of a video and it'd work well. 7/10. Now since someone posted a non-English song a few posts ago let's keep with that - this one's in Portuguese...

    Modern Global Nuclear War?

    A full nuclear exchange? No chance in hell. The countries that have a nuke stockpile would never use them due to the massive losses that would come with it. I'm not saying there can't be limited, ISOLATED use, like in the Middle East for example, but a global nuclear war? The probability is so...

    Can we all agree Bethesda did power armor right?

    The existence of raider armor is what bothers me, honestly. Power armor is supposed to be the absolute peak of Pre-War technological achievement. It should take a high level of knowledge to properly mantain or reverse engineer. The fact raiders can just take pieces of power armor and some scrap...

    ... you use expressions like "spying", put the $ in the name of the company you don't like (classic move of trying to criticize while not getting the situation), and then pull the "it's just an opinion!" card while citing "facts" that don't actually exist, I'm willing to say you're just...
