Not only is GRPD full of General gaming shit like Dragon Age 2 and Alpha Protocol, but now General discussion shit starts to fill its spaces. Nice.

You're absolutely right. I'll shorten the whole fucking thing and dumb it down for you.

Excellent characterization? Execution of a few characters were truly excellent and showed us what next-gen in computer games is supposed to be in RPGs the way Bloodlines also did. The rest? A pile of shit of comic stereotypes. Solid writing? Again, exclusive to those few characters. The rest was Hollywood blockbuster wannabe bullshit. Still, all of it was better than anything in DA:O. Writing in DA:O is similar to a thread full of whiny needy lonely aged children going emofag on each other

Could you point to these charachters that were bullshit?

I can't name any. Even those that filled more in line of stereotypes. (Madison, SIE) were p. good charachterized and stayed true to it.

The only real bullshit part I can remember regarding charachterization was the end of rome with Madison/Mike. And that did only have a few lines.

And can set up some awesome later with Parker, if you find out a couple of important, but easily missable, details about Madison:)

And references to Something Awful. It's just shows that Obsidian has nerds, not like Bethesda and Bioware. That's a good thing! I don't like games made by jocks.

Nonono. The problem isn't that they are "Nerds" and the other "jocks".

They are both nerds.

The problem is

This is Bioware

This is Obsidian

Now with which of these are actually capable of extended social interaction?

Even between nerds there is a difference.

(And I'm not making fun of that Bioware is fat. Feargus is also chubby but he has a awesome personality to go with it. Bioware takes their nerddom waaaay too far.

Indeed.

Although many retards on the Codex prefer to pretend that it's different from shitty Fallout3 even though they are exactly the same and they can't say why

"oh it has bettaaa wraaiitinnn" is the only excuse they can ever produce, considering that New Vegas is about retarded shit where cowboy tribals fight ancient Rome

Indeed. Someone needs to fuel the hatred that MCA draws from the codex. Skyway is basically The Eternal Flame of Pure Hatred. Never change Astaroth.....

Are you serious? For every Codexer who liked AP, there were five more who hated/disliked it. Get your KKKodex right, newfag asshole.

Ah, but those of us who did like it belong to the Codex elite, so our opinion is better than yours :D

Comrade Alexandros speaks the truth. The truth is even more truthful when I put it in large font like this:


ALPHA PROTOCOL IS A GREAT GAME!!!

FFS! LOOK that the shitty texture of those tires!! WORST GAME EVER!!!!111

More like caring Obsidian couldn't let poor RPG players fail and feel frustration of trying to actually play the game so they removed magazine from enemy's gun.

And it's a fine design choice - considering that player character fires his gun like hell from 2 meters away and yet no bullet has hit an enemy. The enemy obviously has a DEX stat so high, he dodges bullets just by looking in the opposite direction.

It has much better quests. Now it is no longer the only "excuse".

All quests in New Vegas go down to 'shoot'-'talk'
There is nothing else to them.
Not a little bit of exploration or the need from the player to show an independent thought

Caring people of Obsidian punch you in your face with what and how to do and then give you warnings of what's going to happen if you do that or this. Quest compass takes care of the rest (e.g. they fuck up all that that made Fallout quests worthwile)

Just like Beth.

I actually thought the writing in NV was worse overall than FO3 for the most part. I thought the overall concept was superior to FO3 but the implentation left a lot to be desired. In otherwords more of the same half-assed Obsidian fare. The first run through the game I fucking loathed it and wiped it from my hard drive. Then after my trip out to Arizona I reinstalled it to give it another spin since I was in the mood for something with a Western flaire. I find the game to be a lot more enjoyable if you just ignore the main questline. Maybe this was done on purpose, because it certainly feels like a smack in the face if you try to play it with the intention of "finishing" it.
