And I made your mums a mixtape.

Run her a nice hot bath. Don't forget to add a drop of shampoo. Light some beeswax candles and put this on for her:



She'll thank you later.

You have a square face. Also strangely you don't look like a faggot,huh you learn something new every day.

The takeaway is that Kasparov was in the final stretch for his Master’s and still managed to finish PoE multiple times..

:rpgcodex:




But really, great job and very informative video.

Strap Yourselves In Codex Year of the Donut
In this thread:

1. People insulting each other for over last 15 pages. I liked the spoiler thread better.
2. Right-wingers laugh at DE not selling. Unlike PS:T and Troika games. Oh wait...
3. Left-wingers defending Marxism, to the irony of DE's description: "it failed so many times, but will surely work this time" (Big Communist Builder).

Witcher 3 is the embodiment of decline. Your analogy that they aimed low is accurate, but why should that be applauded? It is a garbage game that dumbed down virtually every mechanic that makes Witcher unique, it is generic milquetoast AAA trite that primarily did well because it was boosted by console players raised on Skyrim, Fallout 3 and Ubisoft open world game design.

Going back to your analogy, it is better to aim high and miss than aim low and hit the target, especially when the target is a pile of shit. Simple as.

Dumbing down? Well Witcher series was decline from the start.
I like it for what it is but it's basically decline.

I just think that it's dishonest. You're screaming around: "lol crpg" , "be the cop you want to be" and then behind your back the decline starts creeping in.
Aiming that high is pathetic.
You could have just aimed a little lower and made an amazing game.
But they dug too deep and ruined the game.

Sandbox games tend to do very well in general. I wonder if that's one of the key elements of TW3's success? Other than that I would suspect quest design (each quest feeling unique not being MMO-inspired "bring me 4x of Y" shit) and the game overall being very cinematic-heavy (including its non-plot quests). Even I will admit that the above elements were well done and probably helped to sell the whole game, even though many other parts - including crucial gameplay elements - were mediocre at best, if not straight up weak.

In achieving what?
Disco Elysium failed its basic premise.
Witcher 3 is good at being a stupid ARPG.
Disco failed at failing? That almost sounds like a praise, given that the game is very failure-driven.

Lol Nah, I don't think that DEs premise was to fail.
tbh i'm not really sure if it even has a premise.
I don't know why it exists and i don't know why it exists the way it does.

I wonder who are those tasteless people who made TW3 codexian GOTY.
