you are welcome to go to IGN and read about the newest Dark Souls clone or whatever is hot right now

But I've already said that there is no value in reading garbage.
But Codex top 101 is rigged because X calls for his twitter retarded acquaintances to vote massively and infuse their disgusting taste in our midst.
Not that we don't have a consoletards crowd of our own.
Some people just shouldn't have the right to vote, you should pass an IQ test first.
It's similar to how many people here are obsessed with choice & consequences and factions about all else.

And you covet garbage, make up your mind

You're dismissing 80ies dungeon crawlers like an IGN person would do, they are clearly your crowd
Poster Canoli is obviously confused. What he meant to say was:Sw... Sweeper? Is that you?
The last category, of course, being where Underrail and Kingmaker belong.Here's how I rate games

Pretty sure he's some kind of engineer, since he used to travel to various foreign countries, non-English speaking countries. You don't have that busy a schedule if you're in some kind of liberal arts profession, especially one who wasn't yet a professor.Teacher? As much as I might hate his political views and his, as someone said, aseptic writing style, the man is a goddamn professor for English Literature. Which, sure, is 'technically' a teacher, but it sure sounds misleading.
Well, unless I misremember.
Checking the post he made on Spirit of Excalibur, he does say he studied Arthurian Literature in college. I can see your assumption as reasonable though, but that's not necessarily proof his PhD is in English Literature. Its possibly just something he did to fill out his course credits, something he enjoyed, but still. I don't recall him saying anything about having it in English Lit and most of his references are not to things beyond a high school level. Plus that doesn't really explain why someone with a PhD in English Literature would be doing as a consultant in Kiev, Spain and wherever else he's been. He's definitely mentioned that his consultancy is related to his degree, somewhere. No that seems more the domain of an engineering consultant. No reason to bring in some American who can barely speak the language if it isn't something really important.But he wrote several times that he's a professor for English Literature and his traveling job was as a consultant?
Like, he wrote this in the blog. Why are you speculating? He specifically wrote that a university offered him a teaching post, that he has his PhD in English Literature with a focus on Arthurian legends and that, before he got the offer to work at the university, he was some kind of business consultant. Hence the gimlet, which he liked drinking in hotel lobbies.
I just don't like misinformation.
Stop being such a back-talking, butthurt bitch, we already had this talk and you know you are wrong. When we did the Codex members-only vote in 2015 the old fags voted for Witcher 3 over Underrail. And that's great, shows most people here aren't idiots like you, desperate to prove how old-school and superior they think they are.But Codex top 101 is rigged because X calls for his twitter retarded acquaintances to vote massively and infuse their disgusting taste in our midst.
You must admit that if you have played it,Felipe, you would have admitted that Witcher 3 is largery overrated, sure it deserves to be in the Top but absolutly not in the 15th place and I'm not trying to be old-school, Jagged Alliance 2 for exemple is largely superior. Witcher 3 is filled with ubisoft design (Which should be a warning disqualifying point)and no one look on this. Think about how overrated this game is on the mainstream media, the same media you guys usually shit on. Therefore you have to understand,Witcher 3 is the most mass-appealing RPG,not because it's the best (if it was the case many other RPGs would have an influence other than on Codex) but because it checks every points to be mainstream.Stop being such a back-talking, butthurt bitch, we already had this talk and you know you are wrong.

Superior at what? This kind of talk is extremely biased, you are assuming people play games for the same reason as you.It deserves to be in the Top but absolutly not in the 15th place and I'm not trying to be old-school, Jagged Alliance 2 for exemple is largely superior.Stop being such a back-talking, butthurt bitch, we already had this talk and you know you are wrong.

Think about Video games like music , Mainstream love modern musics mainly rap,Electro, etc...Superior at what? This kind of talk is extremely biased, you are assuming people play games for the same reason as you.
Anywhere outside the Codex people will say you are insane for listing broken, unfinished games like Arcanum or Bloodlines above an extremely popular, gorgeous and polished game like Witcher 3. Unless you are 12 years old (biologically or mentally), you should know that it happens not because we are superior beings of higher intellect, but because those games offer something that the Codex values more than, like deep role-playing options & systems, choice & consequence, etc.
That's how you should look at lists, knowing who made them and who they are for. Diablo II is an amazing game that everyone here probably played for hundreds of hours, but it scores very low in the list because it's not what people here look for in RPGs. Meanwhile, mainstream media will rank Witcher 3 at #1 - and they are right at doing so, because it they are writing for Call of Duty fans, and that's a great RPG for them. Do you really think they should say that the best RPG for them is Jagged Alliance 2?
Top Music for what? For when? For whom? Do you go dancing at a night club to Mozart? Do you think Doom's soundtrack should be Beethoven? That dates are more romantic with Holst? That children's birthday parties should all play Bach?Do you think those musics would be in a Top music ?
Do you think Doom's soundtrack should be Beethoven?
Do you think Doom's soundtrack should be Beethoven?
Yes
Yes, because the media has a duty to educate, not cater to the lowest common denominator.Meanwhile, mainstream media will rank Witcher 3 at #1 - and they are right at doing so, because it they are writing for Call of Duty fans, and that's a great RPG for them.

Yeah, and I think they've done a decent job recently, you can find good lists with Witcher 3, Ultima VII, Fallout 1/2 and Arcanum - like this one: https://www.pcgamer.com/best-rpgs-of-all-time/ or this one: https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2020/01/30/best-rpgs-2020/Yes, because the media has a duty to educate, not cater to the lowest common denominator.Meanwhile, mainstream media will rank Witcher 3 at #1 - and they are right at doing so, because it they are writing for Call of Duty fans, and that's a great RPG for them.

Codexers? This is not hard if your high IQ brain can handle more complex categorization than A OR B, GOOD OR BAD.So, according to you, who the codex is writing for ?
Consoletards?
This. What is a point of telling people who beat Fallout 1 a dozen times that Fallout 1 is a great game. Tell it to people who would have never thought about trying it.Yes, because the media has a duty to educate, not cater to the lowest common denominator.Meanwhile, mainstream media will rank Witcher 3 at #1 - and they are right at doing so, because it they are writing for Call of Duty fans, and that's a great RPG for them.
