    FIRST EVER Fallout 1 Experience!

    For tips, there is ONLY ONE tip: DO NOT GIVE UP. Preferably you just face the game on your own. Don't use suggestions, don't follow guides, don't let other players beat hard parts for you. But at all costs, NEVER give up. FO1 is brilliantly designed with ALWAYS having an "out" for the player...

    General Discussion Thread of DOOM

    The one on the right looks much better.

    Is the US a shitty place to live?

    Uh, you don't seem to understand what demonstrations like that..... demonstrate. It's not that the 200 or 100 or 50 or 10 people who signed the petition are the ONLY people who feel that way, it's that these are REPRESENTATIVE of populations. You take as random of a sample of preferably 2000...

    The FPS rpg, can it really work?

    You're looking at it the wrong way. It's TOTALLY fine to point out problems with a given thing that people like. It's taking issue with them liking it that's kinda pointless, cause that's where subjectivity enters the picture. To put it in simple terms, it's alright that people like FO3, but it...

    The FPS rpg, can it really work?

    I'm afraid to ask, but... what did the bad people do? (Points to diagram with many different choices of dialog) Did they touch here?

    Do you think Fallout 4 will outsell or be better than GTA 5?

    Are you serious? You asked a question. THAT question. See that question mark? That was a question.

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    It's not an easy way out, though, contrary to how you're painting it to be. Valve going through considerable studies so they can plan out the designs of their levels to showcase events where the players will usually want to look are at best an anomaly when it comes to video game storytelling. If...

    Can we all just stop with the Bethesda hate? It's getting old

    It would've been fine if there was so much as the SLIGHTEST implication that those kids fucked, and they had super young pregnancies... cause that's totally possible. Depending on her diet, a human girl could reach puberty and procreate as early as 7, so that's 9 years of leeway (according to...

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    Sig material only if he wants to make himself look like a stupid ass. I get straight to the point, with as many words as are necessary. Calling that "too many words" is just a sign that you'd prefer your pontifications be cripplingly simplistic and inaccurate. It's also startlingly...

    Is the US a shitty place to live?

    Good people? GOOD people? Methinks our definitions of what constitutes a "good person" WILDLY differs. I wouldn't call war-mongering ignorants "good" by ANY stretch of the imagination.

    The Ultimate Movie Thread of Ultimate Destiny

    Ironic, considering that, in and of itself, IS pretentious. It's not pretentious to not like a thing, and easily be able to identify the reasons why. Neither is it to not like a thing, even if you can't fully express your reasons. But to haughtilly parade around a thing you appreciate, and be...

    Can we all just stop with the Bethesda hate? It's getting old

    I always say the following: People have different tastes, and I can't FAULT them for liking what they like. That's their taste, after all. But I CAN fault the things that they like THEMSELVES. I don't think I regularly see anyone here attack the notion of liking Bethesda's work so much as I see...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    No, that totally works, too..... when done correctly. There are games that are MASTERFUL at eliciting the desired emotional response from their players, and purely by having cutscenes to do it. Granted, these are often reinforced by GAMEPLAY that helps players identify with characters. But the...

    Why do you despise Bethesda

    I wouldn't consider bringing to light damning evidence that a company actively tries to hide to be what you could call "hating". I'd say my relationship with chicken is far more vitriolic than my relationship with Bethesda, and I hardly EVER mention chicken, or that I can't stand it! I criticize...

    Do you think Fallout 4 will outsell or be better than GTA 5?

    I'm gonna pretend you didn't ask that question. I suggest you do the same. =P

    Skyrim doesn't work

    If I'm not mistaken, and going by basic mathematics and canceling out multipliers and divisibles that are the same is to be correct, I THINK he just said "Skyrim is boring and inept"? Sounds about right.

    Do you think Fallout 4 will outsell or be better than GTA 5?

    I wouldn't consider a big-ass gunfight to be the "more spectacular" finale. Clearing out an entire tanker (which you started the game on, incidentally) then going to a wedding then hunting down a guy at an abandoned building then clearing out everyone standing in your way then hopping on a bike...

    General Gaming Megathread: What are you playing?

    Oh man, I'm watching more and more let's plays of HuniePop, and I think I may wanna grab this game! Not right this second, but... eventually. The dialog is pretty fucking hilarious, the gameplay's not bad, and then there's the assloads (pun NOT intended?) of fan service to boot. I see that an...

    Vaults: Are they really crazy?

    One of the designs of both games (again, concocted by FO3, and forcefully followed in FONV) which made exploration a problem was the manner the game named the locations you visited. In the original games, you'd travel aimlessly in a direction, or maybe you'd head towards A destination you knew...

    Do you think Fallout 4 will outsell or be better than GTA 5?

    In retrospect, I'm liking more than ever that Rockstar considered GTAV and GTAO to be 2 "separate games" despite shipping as part of the same game (and sharing the same Platinum). Cause it really is a different game. GTAO is some attempt at taking the wild fun that people had with GTAIV's...
