    May I remind everyone that The Terminator Reaper wasn't an antagonist, just a video game boss? Shitty one of course. Now TIM... yes. I was actually torn between Retard TIM and Discount Ninja Kai Leng. All the others have at least some writing. Most other antagonist had at least an interesting...

  2. Mass Effect the way you see it

    Remastering ME1 wouldn't even be too hard. Stuff it into UDK 4.latest, probably even the scripts will work, if not some will need tweaks. Paint higher resolution textures. Use new skin shaders with subsurface reflections so that people no longer look like clay. You may have to tweak animations...

  3. Mass Effect Trilogy

    Well, other than the stupid sigil spam, nobody goes out of the way to tell the aliens you're with Cerberus until they're at the ship. Shepard also has a Jobs-level reality distortion field. I've reconsidered the spoiler policy. Every alien has their own motivation for not caring about Cerberus...

  4. Mass Effect Trilogy

    I forgot to mention some of ME1 choice and consequence things. It has that. Both your point gauges and some skills influence the dialogs. Unfortunately consequences are confined within single hub at most. ME2 is direct except when it's not - on the final mission, Other than that none, nada...

  5. Mass Effect Trilogy

    All this because someone tried to make aliens relatable to humans instead of, say, alien? Looking back at this, Bioware improved steadily at one thing, combat. They tossed everything else, including mission design, writing, world building, even art direction. TL;DR part follows in a spoiler...

  6. Will you Buy and/or Play Trans Effect: Androgynousmeda? The POLL!

    Essentially I am a kind of connoisseur of decline... This looks like a fine specimen.

  7. Will you Buy and/or Play Trans Effect: Androgynousmeda? The POLL!

    Defrosting here. Also picked the Jaesun option mostly because it might be worth playing for $5 and a short while. The privilege of being able to afford playing the game that finally sunk Bioware. For sure doesn't look like $60 ever.

  8. On the shoulders of giants: a new multiple choices LP!

    I'd brofist the above but ran out of fists. The main problem is that we don't know what's beyond the Sealed Corridors. Might well be some alternate exit or more danger. Likely some artifacts of ages long gone - which could be used either to bolster or crush the religion as we see fit or rally...

  9. On the shoulders of giants: a new multiple choices LP!

    Crazed old bat in the middle of somewhere vs army? Not that dangerous. Need to take anything Miriam says or does with a grain of salt, sounds like a manipulative type. Well, unless said Spark is something highly destructive... Best to rely on diplomacy. +1 for fortifying the city/passages...

  10. On the shoulders of giants: a new multiple choices LP!

    A - and perhaps we can reassure him that we won't spill the secret. (Until more opportune time that is...)

  11. On the shoulders of giants: a new multiple choices LP!

    Same as the rest: B, if that doesn't bring anything useful, retry with C if possible and there aren't more pressing matters.

  12. On the shoulders of giants: a new multiple choices LP!

    Remember that we were in the ancient times and that the victors write the history; also the tribe was quite small. All history was oral, since no writing was mentioned. Where is your memory now? This last stand working was a real dumb assumption. -- As for the LP proper, I think both move...

  13. In Progress AAR: Worms Reloaded

    Wow, more physics in Worms. Would almost make it worth $$$ if not for broken AI and far too many unlocks. Feel free to continue.

  14. On the shoulders of giants: a new multiple choices LP!

    Darn, those email notifications sure fail hard. While I was not looking, nobody arranged a tasteful "accident" for the fire wielder after a mock trial or forced him to try a real confrontation. And then some other silly people sent him up the volcano with even more perfect opportunities to get...

  15. In Progress Let's Play Mass Effect 3: Emotional Engagements

    Let's rename Reapers to Trolls and we have ME3 plot on teh internets!
