other games, where violence is extremely cartoony (thanks to producers who tried to sell those to 13-years-old kiddos).
You still refused to list any of those.
No problem. Summoner is one of these games. Apart from some convulsions I don't remember seeing any blood in there.
Also, the majority of JRPGs. I'm yet to see a JRPG where enemies bleed from attacks.

There is nothing wrong with playing JRPGs of SNES/PSX era, since turn based RPGs are a minority today, apart from some indie games and some AAA games (both are mostly trash).

How's Cata DDA shaping up these days? Been a while since I took a look at it. Are NPCs functional and/or good yet? That was one thing I always hoped they'd improve.

Edit: Poked my head in at their forum and had a little looksee. As usual they were talking about dildos. I wonder if all roguelike communities are like that, never looked at any DoomRL/Nethack/DCSS forums. Dwarf Fortress forums at least are about making giant obsidian lava-spewing cocks to fire off over elves.

Erection 3: Titty Lords


It always looked a little odd to me that random people would be waiting for Rolf inside his house. Are there no locks in the future? Or concept of privacy? What's wrong with waiting inside his workplace which is on the same street?

Never understood the appeal of games like Carmageddon or Postal.
It's always seemed to me that a person needed to be at least a bit unhinged already to enjoy this kind of shit.

Postal and Carmageddon has some appeal if you're an angsty teen and never seen any sick shit on teh webz. I can't imagine myself playing this right now. Killing civilians and wrecking shit up - meh.

Considering the sheer carnagefest that most RPGs are, I sure hope you guys only really play nonviolent simulators or you'd sound like huge hypocrites right now

You've been playing the wrong ones.



Not only does Gen make enemies bleed, he makes them bleed even when they're robots inside virtual reality. I'm not sure if that is more or less credible than the whole 'cutting a rope with a pipe' thing.

I enjoy well motivated carnagefest as much as the next guy.
It's just when this motivation is flimsy* or nonexistent that I start feeling alienated from the game.

*) Does mean it has to be particularly cerebral, especially if the game itself isn't (DOOM, Blood) but it needs to be there.

I usually feel bad when flattening pedestrians in GTA games, but then i fail the mission because of some annoying shit like i usually do, get angry and intentionally go full throttle on every one i can get my tires on until coppers shoot my psycho ass down.

It's not whining about violence, but about killing NPCs who are defensless and didn't attack you first.

I consider it a one-time experience, just like seeing 1man1jar or 2girls1cup. Or that dude that puts his penis in 2 acrylic glass sheets and screws them totally flattening his dick.

Shit, I forgot what I was going to say...

I seem to recall Vandal Hearts being pretty gory actually, if you count that as a jrpg.
