It's not, I have seen it as well.

First, HP regen, now this arrow knee shit.

I want my money back.

If that is all it takes for you to fall to your knees crying for your money back. Why do you play video games? The video games today are Rife with Easter eggs. They are a way of paying homage to certain things that the creators are fans of. Fallout 2 had Monty Python, Star Trek TNG, War of the worlds, and bunch of other pop culture easter eggs in it. The bullet to the knee is just that an Easter Egg.

Wasteland had health regen just not as obvious or as fast. Who knows... they might change it or chuck it out. This is only the Beta there are at least 3 more major steps to go through before the game is finalized.

I know about the big crush but i never delved into any specifics of it.
The worst game of all time?

widely regarded as the or at least one of the worst game(s) ever made, but apparently the game was just too far ahead of its time.

 

[Sensuki]

He's joking and 80's references are okay.

Skyrim references are the lamest shit ever, and also evidence of popamole xboxy camera ... list inventory ... starting to see a pattern ....

But those pop-culture things aren't retarded like Bethesduh.

This was the same mentality fans of ES/Fallout had about Oblivion/Fallout 3.

Haha. Well, I have a feeling those lines probably aren't going to be in the game for much longer now. One is okay, but three is too much.

Luckily Wasteland 2 is being targeted towards us and not towards consoletards so it's actually not the same situation at all

 

[felipepepe]

Seriously, the same shitty joke three time on the beta? Do people at inXile even read each other's text?

 

[Athelas]

From the looks of it, 'whacky Skyrim jokes' was apparently one of the overarching design goals.

And they are a smashing success, just as annoying as they ever were.

That's actually the primary problem.

Oh boy here we go.

The bullet to the knee is just that an Easter Egg.

It's not an easter egg if it's in the main course of the game. An easter egg is something hidden, at least partially.

5 weeks to create a game? That is insane! It takes months of story writing, concept art production, etc before you can even get the game onto the drawing board for the meeting.

First, HP regen, now this arrow knee shit.

I want my money back.

*jedi hand motion* HP Regen is fine, it's slow paced and it was in Wasteland.

Also holy fuck, even if I did like Skyrim, three is just heavy handed, that's fucking awful. This game better be huge in scale and have twice as many easter eggs with reference to real RPGs. Seriously, whoever decided three arrow in the knee jokes were acceptable in ANY game, kill yourself. It's clearly a bug related to the beta, I will submit a report.

I didn't know you were a flat-chested Asian girl, Sensuki.

I submitted a bug report about their being no asian female faces.

Sensuki is an Asian chick?

lolwut? You can actually make out the race of what is pretty much a blob with some faded indistinguishable facial features? I know it's a joke, but I've seen it twice, i wouldn't be surprised if somebody actually makes an issue out of it. Besides, there is a female face that looks asian.(Or as asian as a featureless blob can look.)

 

[BGMD]

"I used to be a Glaive like you but then I took a numenera to the knee."

 

[Zed]

they should hire some funny people to write jokes, easter eggs, homages, etc.

 

[General Maxson]

I think this is appropriate:

I think she means the avatars, not the 3d models.

This is the codex, obviously I'm a tranny.

Mods will fix that.

 

[Sensuki]

No I did mean the 3D models. There's an asian portrait but no asian face. Y U NO INTO SNSD???

Oh, well you can change skin tone, isn't that enough

 

[Onholyservicebound]

There are

There are two of them, and they are right next to each other. She probably meant the blobs, hell, but in that case you could report a bug that there are no people of any race in the game, despite being able to choose multiple human nationalities.

 

[undecaf]

There's no incomprehensible yellow mush an asian lady like there is for an asian gentleman? Sounds like a job for RPS.

 

[Sensuki]

It's not going to win them the hearts of any women who don't shave their legs though, so it's a pointless article.
