Review GameSpot somewhat more critical of Bloodlines

[Sol Invictus]

So you're saying everybody hates the game, except for Troika fanboys, who make up the bulk of people who like the game.

What a fucking incredulous proposition.

Jesus Volourn, it's not like there's this secret Troika Fanboy HQ that tells everyone to go post insanely high scores on Gamespot? TEH KONSPIRACIII!

Just compare to what kind of rating most games get. All studios have fanboys, it's a fact.

edit: It's pretty weird that the user reviews are down to 10 again. That voting amount has fluctuated between 0 and 550, and between 1 and 22 reviews. Database fark-up?

All I'm saying to say that Troika doens't have the number of fanboys to cover 20 written reviews or 1k numerical reviews is silly. I'm not saying that every single one of them are by fanboys. That would also be silly. However, the potential is there that's all i'm pointing out.

Do people even read here? Afterall, I have written quite clearly (espicially for me) that BL seems to have been favorbaly accepted by most gamers. Geez.. Bunch of over protective crybaby fanboys on this site. Even when one is trying to be positive about Troika people cry.

R00fles!

 

[Otaku_Hanzo]

I'm sure Troika can at least scoop up that many.

You need to learn to read your own posts, Vol. That line alone makes it sound like you're saying there IS a conspiracy theory. Sheesh. Bash bash bash back and forth bash bash bash. Fuck this shit. It's a good game. People like it. Troika has fanboys. And somewhere a baby was born.

Silly goose. That is trolling, and Volourn will get you for it R0ffles!

No, it isn't. He has the right to misread my posts.

The fact that you guys actually think Im anti Bl or anti Troika is THE conpiracy theory. Nowhere in that line does it even suggest that i think that's what troika did. Heck, one can point out the various user reveiws for BIO games and say hey 200 people wrote a review on them and say BIO could have got their fanboys to write them all. That is posisble afterall BIo surely cans crounge up 200 fanboys if they bothered to do so. that doesn't mean they would. I was just pointing out to the eprson who said that Troika doesn't have 22 fanboys is silly. of course they have 22 fanboys. 19.5 of them post here! :D


"It's a good game. People like it."

Eh. Tell me where I said otherwise.

A baby being born is trolling? :shock:

My world view has suddenly changed.

 

[Otaku_Hanzo]

The last part of my post was aimed at everyone in general, Vol. Not just you. It seems like even when a game comes out everyone can agree on, there's still hostilities flung around about it. It saddens me to no end and brings a tear to my eye.

Can't we all just get along?

Well. That's because even the most well liked games have their detractors. Look at Diablo, BG2, and a host of others. What I find hilarious here; is various people are crying because they think I hate BL 9without even playiung it at that!) and am attacking it which is sof ar from the case it's just plain silly.

Geez.. I plan to buy the game and I might even move my purchase up to beginning of December because of what I've heard and the game I was planning on purchase I rented and it wasn't as good as I thought it be. <>.

That is all. For now.

 

[Sol Invictus]

You might want to stay off the forums until you've played the game, or Saint will most assuredly spoil it for you! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.

Volourniaview has that effect on people. Ever since he reached out to me, I can't even fart in his general direction without fear of it being called trolling.

 

[Sol Invictus]

If I were to fart in the general direction of Mecca, it would be considered to be trolling on a global scale.

 

[Gromnir]

I don't think Gromnir actually has opinions on things. Rather, it seems he defines himself by taking the opinions of others, reversing them and then arguing them in his bizarre pirate chatter.

yup, Gromnir not have no opinions... that must be it.

HA!

is any number of Gromnir reviews for various games. in fact, we cannot think of a game we has played all the way through during past 5 years for which we has not posted an extensive review... freedom force, baldur's gate and all its expansions, kotor, planescape, iwd, warcraft 3, battlezone, crimson skies, mechwarrior 4, and quite a few others... but some of you codex folks not get out much.

*shrug*

we not purchased vampire... and so far we ain't read a review that would make us want to. may have to wait for a review.

in any event, we love when spaz makes comments like the one we quote above... makes it so much easier to dismiss him. put him in same category with exit.

HA! Good Fun!

 

[Sol Invictus]

Gromnir lacks a sense of humor. Don't mind him, people.

 

[Diogo Ribeiro]

I never knew you had reviewed Freedom Force. But yeah, I don't get out much to boot, so... :razz:

 

[Otaku_Hanzo]

People who refer to themselves as we need to play Bloodlines just so they can meet Jeanette and Teresa.

He's got a borg fetish. That's why he likes to put coax cable in his various orifaces.

That's.......... scary.

 

[Fez]

Hey, don't knock it 'til you've tried it. I'm taping a laser pointer to the side of my head right now. I'm sure I'll look so cool and everyone will fawn over me.

 

[Gromnir]

we got a great sense o' humor. is why we keep reading stuff at codex... tickles our funny bone. heck, we find the way you retreat to such feeble excuses as "it was all a joke" type stuff very funny indeed.

HA! Good Fun!

 

[Trash]

WE? Schizophrenia is serious, don't make fun of it.They know

All of the little voices or just a mayority?

 

[Transcendent One]

Do they actually treat schizophrenia these days? Cause someone really needs to tell Gromnir if they do. Even though he has a good point.. it's hard to take his argument seriously. Lolz.

 

[Vault Dweller]

Maybe he's Malkavian

 

[suibhne]

Maybe he's Malkavian

Something tells me I wouldn't find either of his halves totally freakin' hot, though. :D

when we were working as a pd, quite a few clients of ours were diagnosed schizophrenic. schizo is a relatively common variety o' psychosis and as such is most often treated with your typical range o' anti-psychotic meds. personal therapy, diet adjustments, and even ect may also be used in addition to meds.

btw, many uneducated folks seems to confuse schizo with mpd. is two very different things... 'course neither would apply to Gromnir behavior. it is worth noting that garden variety bipolar folks (particularly children,) is often misdiagnosed as schizo... so if dr. tells exit that he is schizo, we would recommend getting a second or third opinion... just to be safe. vd, on the other hand, from what we has seen is just run of the mill stupid.

the fact that you wanna dismiss what you know to be a good point is precisely why we post as we do. once you figure that out you will realize that your admission is far more a criticism of yourself than it is of Gromnir.

wow… some of you kids actually learned something today.

HA! Good Fun!
