Pete Hines lectures whole world on what makes an RPG

[Killzig]

well, shit, this site has no purpose in existing anymore I guess then

It never did.

GTA is a role playing game.

I think the consensus already established that, long ago. u.u

Well, 2 had a faction system, and while I haven't played most of the others (only 3 and Vice City AGES ago), I do remember some nuances of this same faction system being there with the different gangs and all that jazz. This is the world we live in.

I think its long established that Bethesda games are "make shit up inside your head for all this random crap strewn across teh big world" games and killing things.

Its their philosophy, has been since Oblivious. I think it should be illegal to label anything that isn't graph paper an RPG. Everyone has their own shitty opinion on what one is. VD likes strong choices and consequences, person B likes strong stats, and person C likes strong storytelling, characters and narrative. Bethesda chose wide open spazzy larp bullshit where you make up everything on the go.

Fucking sick of this RPG crap.

Laser-muskets?

Heh, you haven't seen the video?
They've probably gone full retard on the American Revolution theme. I'll bet there's going to be a group called the minutemen with some weak arse ICBM pun.

On Pete Hines quote , I don't understand what to discuss here and why there is a whole topic for this . This is another attempt Bethseda is making , trying to convince everyone in their wisdom , nothing to see here , move along .

We are almost there folks!

"When the only thing you know how to make is a shitty and dull FPS name it an RPG and count all that $"
Because its all about systems and stuff in TES hiking

 

[imweasel]

I guess that settles it. Merge general gaming discussion with RPG discussion because all games are RPGs.

 

[Fairfax]

Sounds like dialog from a Bethesda game.

This is just Pete's role-play. His character is trying to untie the "what is RPG" Gordian knot with Speech skill solely, without putting any points into Lore skill.

What about the Tits Thread?

Pete Hines seems like a guy who enjoys the Opus version of Life is Live more than the Laibach version.

This is still pretty funny.
