  1. SW:TOR = WoW Killer, now confirmed

    Some honest advice here, then, since you've been forthright. In the industry now, you'll either need to clone something tried and true to get publisher attention (the simpler the concept, the easier it is to sell it to the stupid suits who only see dollar signs with envy of others' success), or...

    You're just jealous of KoTOR, and that relationship has been LONG over. I've since found someone else and I'm going to be giving birth in a few years. 8-)
  3. Dragon Age Collector's Edition: Bonus Quest and Character

    Duh. They're going to overhype another shitty figurine or three like they did for Ass Effect, and charge the sheep another $50 or more for it.
  4. SW:TOR = WoW Killer, now confirmed

    Erm...I kind of knew that when you first advertised it as being just like Fallout, then had to ask about the character system. It is as threads tend to go after they start recycling the same thing over and over. I couldn't resist the return jab. Glad to see you too. :)
  5. Dragon Age Collector's Edition: Bonus Quest and Character

    I remember a time when a couple of developers would offer almost the same thing, but as standard for the publication. Ah, well, BioWare fanboys are tards with too much money, which is the only possible explanation for a shitty $50+ "collector's item" figurine of Shepard.
  6. SW:TOR = WoW Killer, now confirmed

    Oooh, nice site redesign! I'm glad to see that your development team has branched out into a wide array of other genres - such ambition! * Wireless Games * Phone Games * Play Games Online * Murder Mystery Games * Scavenger Hunt * Interactive Games * Rent...
  7. Watch me play a shitty game (Fallout 3) (COMPLETED!!)

    Then there are some pretty fucked up milkmen in the Capital Wasteland. ([Sic], as it's spelled several times as such in the game.) I've been thinking of a "Black MacGuyver" LP thread. That way I get a bonus to run speed.
  8. Do elitist gamers have fun?

    Ah, glad to see we can agree on something. :D This quote from their own comments, by the author of the article themselves, puts this into a clearer light: The article writer also neglects the most important fact: Most "professional gaming journalists" today are kids without any other...
  9. Tim Cain didn't want to do FO2 and thought PS:T was a JRPG

    Ever since Todd Howard stopped doing that and started working on design, Bethesda's coffee has gone downhill. Perhaps that is why their games haven't been that well-designed lately, and why Fallout 3 was released as the biggest over-hyped Oblivion mod. The developers couldn't stay awake...
  10. Preview Alpha Protocol Video Walkthrough

    I wouldn't necessarily say "likes", because I have serious issues with much of the game. But at BioWare games go, it's at least playable...sort of. It is certainly still better than their recent pretentious attempts in the CRPG genre. Given the original topic of discussion and the studio...
  11. Failure as a positive game mechanism?

    I think that is the most important part of the game experience, the feeling of the game world. When it feels like you are penned into a narrow path, it doesn't seem so fun. When you are given options, it makes the world feel more alive. Though I have been quite busy lately, I'll drop by...
  12. Preview Alpha Protocol Video Walkthrough

    Compared to some that BioWare and others, including certain spy clichés, those were some of the best characters. Maybe because, in that game, the cliché fit. To anyone aware of life before the 80s, Star Wars was little but one running gag of the changes in space opera. Unfortunately, when I...
  13. How should WoW end? How should any MMO end?

    Yeah, art has never been a complaint of mine about WoW.
  14. Jeff Vogel blogs about awesomeness.

    Not entirely true, the other main inspiration was the SSI games, from what I can recall discussing with him on Usenet. But yeah, it plays more like U5/6. He caught all of those who were tired of the Ultimas going into action gameplay, and who missed all of the old SSI games like gold box and...
  15. Preview Alpha Protocol Video Walkthrough

    In context with the thread title and the authors, comparatively it is great. Even though all of BioWare's titles are dumbed-down shit. There, happy?! 8-)
