I apologize. I should be able to channel, control and use as mana for quality shitpost magic casting my mind much better
It's skill I'm working on, and have much room for improvement
I haven't been on Internet for few weeks, and this happens every time I return. I'm surprised how much Clown World has advanced. And people just keep drinking the poison. I've been EXCLUSIVELY playing good old and rare good new indie games. 0% wokery. Awesome storylines, captivating art styles, fun and deep gameplay mechanics. I'm playing Age of Wonders 1, HighFleet and Fallout: New Vegas. All for the first time
I have 0 plans of trading my entire worth as human being and my principles so I can LARP as SpaceTransNiggerGayPirate in Starfield. I have Mass Effect 1-3 (never played them), Gundam anime and BattleStar Galactica series for my space larp. Also never enjoyed them. Also I'm reading book about Byzantium. There's 100+ list of movies alone I made for this year. All great movies. Never watched any. Doubt I' ll manage to fuck all the bitches and watch all the movies in same year. Maybe some multi-tasking is in order lol
I'm less then 30 years old. I'm in prime years for fucking, rebeling, living. I refuse to eat shit, call it cream brulee and be good little NPC. Starfield? Bitch please. We have real Galaxy of opportunities to explore

Give more moneyz to Microsoft and Bill Gates.

Nice try. I buy all of my games secondhand and refuse to actually support the industry.

What will be your pronoun in Strafield, Codexers?

Glitchcompilationr / Glitchcompilationself.

 

[The Wall]

My point is very simple. So simple even a Ukranian could undestand it: IF game has pronouns, that's WOKE Seig HEIL! AND it will not, and it is never just some small, insignificant option. It's a symptom of disease which will show in story, in gameplay, in how well it was coded, in how many bugs it have etc. It's metalic taste in mouth for radiation poisoning. I'm not gonna Seig Heil the Mad Clown World Order. Let me repeat myself: I'm not going to Seig Heil the Mad Clown World Order

Todd Howard did it for money. I'm not going to do it. I have life worth living, I can't get bored. I don't need Starfield in my life

I refuse to eat shit

Called it

No idiot
When people talk about day and night cycles, they do literally mean the process of the sun going up and down
What you described are NPC schedules, an entirely different gameplay system

Yeah, I guess when someone has double digit IQ like you, everything has to be pointed out to them word by word. Why would anyone care about the literal day/night cycle in an RPG past mid 90s? Every single one has them. It's like talking about a graphical UI or sound effects. But keep grasping at semantics, Morrowind is still shit.

Saying that every RPG past the mid 90s has a NPC scheduling it's a maliciuous statement that makes you less of a man becase you are lying and you know it.

Here a small list:
Fallout I-II: No npcs scheduling
Bg I and II does not have it (Well, Beregost's blacksmith was empty at night)
Wizardry 8
Wizard and warriors
The Exile series
The NWN series
Wasteland 2-3
Planescape

You lack the reading comprehension to even read what I wrote in the post you are quoting. "Why would anyone care about the literal day/night cycle in an RPG past mid 90s? Every single one has them." I was talking about day/night cycles here.

Saying that every RPG past the mid 90s has a NPC scheduling it's a maliciuous statement that makes you less of a man becase you are lying and you know it.

Even more to the point, extremely-high-budget CRPG Baldur's Gate 3 will release without a day/night cycle, despite Porky the Popamoler's protestations that every single RPG has had them since the mid-90s. And this topic has been discussed extensively in several BG3 threads over the past few years.

Zed Doink of Buttsville chimes in with a hot take. Take it up with Sven, he is on your level. Literally every shitty RPG has a day/night cycle. And who cares? A day/night cycle is just a different color pallette. Your beloved Morronwind has nothing to offer as far as actual differences between day and night.

For me, what really elevates his post is the fact that this whole side discussion started because he claimed that a lack of NPC scheduling, among other gameplay systems, is the mark of a shit RPG
A gameplay feature which his beloved Witcher 3 lacks...

So what? Did I ever claim Witcha 3 was perfect? It has a lot of flaws. However, with that said, it is a masterpiece in terms of writing, dialogues, lore, setting, graphics, presentation, cinematic quality, and has a decent combat system for an RPG (especially once modded). Morronwind, on the other hand, barely has anything past its flaws.

LOL Eat ISKANDER

Right after you finish up your daily dose of Chechen butt-rape

Oh, who am I trying to fool... you'll probably enjoy it

I think "true RPG" argument obscures the real differences between CDPR and Bethesda. I'm not even sure it has anything to do with RPG-ness at all, more just general game design. It's kinda like the difference between Rockstar and Valve. CDPR/Rockstar make a representation of their fictional world, Valve/Bethesda create something closer to a model. If that distinction makes sense. In this analogy, a representation seeks to resemble its subject as much as possible whereas a model is intended to describe its subject in function.

You can look at it that way, but either a representation or a model is only as good as its actual quality. CDPR's surface level representation as you say is excellent, sure the underneath logic of their games is mostly bad or non-existent, but the surface stuff is so good that you can gain a lot of quality entertainment from it.

Bethesda, on the other hand, may have an actual model for their games, but the model is so shallow and bad in every way, that it is utterly irrelevant. You want a good game with an underlying functional model, try something like Gothic, Fallout, Deus Ex. None of Bethesda's games belong in that conversation.

Done simping in the 'box and come to chat with the big boys, eh mate? I've completed Morronwind with that base building expansion, love. Was too bored to complete the 2nd expansion.

 

[The_Mask]

I don't think you've played Morrowind. Characters go out during the day. Miners go in the mines during the day. Farmers go out in the fields during the day.

 

[PorkyThePaladin]

I don't think YOU've played Morronwind. A random google search returns this:

"NPC schedules mod.
Is there any mod that makes NPCs move around more? Such as giving them schedules like the NPCs in Oblivion. I always thought Morrowind could have hugely benefited from something like this. "

And 20,000 other results like this. "Can I hazz some NPC behavior???"

 

[Zombra]

Why the fuck are there 200 posts in a row about day/night cycles? Is the point that Bethesda sucks because their games don't have "real" day/night cycles?

 

[PorkyThePaladin]

No, of course not. It is merely ONE of a MILLION things wrong with Bethesda games.

 

[Drakortha]

Baldur's Gate 3 in 2023 doesn't have day/night cycles nor NPC schedules.
