Lilura's Blog: An Ongoing Codexian Obsession

[Ontopoly]

I really really really really really miss Lilura.

 

[Palomides]

We should leave comments on her blog and ask if she will grace us with her presence.

CTL+F: cRPG

This is my favorite part:

"cRPG Type", "cRPG Developer", "cRPG Rating".

I'm honestly surprise she didn't go for "cRPG Year" and "cRPG cRPG".

I know right?? The fact that this doesn't say 'cRPG Questions and Answers' is messing with my head.

Baldur’s Gate as #4 is beyond retarded and so is IWD1/2, Warband, and JA2 which isn’t even an RPG.

The more CRPG’s I play now, the more this list triggers me.

JA2
Dark Souls
System Shock1
Mass Effect
Mount n Blade

Might as well make every game an RPG.

They already have. Talk to people outside this website and even suggesting something might not be an rpg is elitist gatekeeping

I mean can you blame them? This site for example has existed for 20 years and people still can't agree on a what an RPG is.

Can't we come up with a parsimonious definition at least? Like something along the lines of "Any game with a character sheet and a character creator is an RPG". That would exclude action games with RPG elements but include things like blobbers or JA2. You could go from there and add variables for subtypes and such, if you wanna get into specifics.

Only thing you can do at this point is make a new term. Maybe throw the n word in somewhere so the normies won't use and abuse it.

Game genres are defined by their mechanics, and the RPG genre is possibly the most complicated of all videogame genres, since it derives from Dungeons & Dragons, which formed from miniatures wargaming by adding more extensive character-related aspects (progression and customization, rather than just equipment and inventory) and new exploration-related aspects. Unfortunately, this results in endless bickering from people who have some personal reason for defining RPGs differently, or simply from those who seek to emphasize or de-emphasize particular aspects.

Where can I find strategy guide, authorative in-depth game mechanics analysis and builds discussion?

 

[Denim Destroyer]

I would be inclined to read Lilura's Blog if it was filled with game development history in addition to the writers opinionated entries.

Sounds like CRPGAddict.

I like gaming blogs with story by the player characters and comedy.


.....well if it isn't woke shit that is.

Figures. These so-called Ranaissance RPGs he's so into are RPG/RTS hybrids and should be referred as such.

Warcraft 2 is an RPG because it's a game and you play a role in it. Anyone who disagrees is fucking retarded.

 

[Joggerino]

Why did Lilura even leave? I know she was always arguing with everyone but it seemed like friendly banter. I don't believe she left just because of that.

AFAIK, she left after she demanded moderation against insults and the administration refused to do it. I wish they had just given her mod privileges over this thread (if that is even a possibility) and let her go nuts in here.

The blame is on rusty_shackleford, who hates us and doesn't want us to have nice things. Lilura was so mad about something he did she spent an entire blogpost on him.

ERYFKRAD it's impossible to provide a citation, she was so butthurt she deleted everything like a day later

I don't always agree with the man, but damned if he ain't a right bro sometimes.
