I come from Argentina and I am very white.

We can't know that from this picture alone, we need to see the color of your nipples.

He can just be a very pale cave-dweller, everybody knows that: only foreskin color can change the nature of a man.
And if u dont have a foreskin, then what kind of aryan master race are you anyways?

Cool game, bro.

Back to Arma 3.

I find this a nice result of choosing an obviously stupid action.

How was it an "obviously stupid action?" I figured such a retarded opening sequence was going to be a dream anyway.

IT WAS CASTOFFS

You probably don't realize half of it. (eh, you probably do, I am probably one of the few naive ones that waited for the game to make it's own unique explanation about everything without stepping on PST toes)
Till the end I was hoping they end up their own thing, or race, sorta like godlings.

The reason why there are so many castoffs is a pillar which all story rests on and is explained in the game. The real issue is *why* there are so many, and it ends up being such a straight plagiarism from PST it hurts

Spoiler

basically replace "castoffs" with "incarnations"

 

[Darth Roxor]

Sweet Jesus, one thing I didn't expect to see on the Codex is to read people bitch how something isn't explained right in their faces or that some key NPC was hard to find.

Yeah lul, it's even better if it comes from folks who complain that the gaem's also too easy/dumb/undemanding.

sorry men but this game is either made for mouthbreathers or you cant find caius cosades, gotta pick one

The "obviously stupid action" was to dive headfirst to the ground. You also had the option to try and decrease your falling speed. You are falling from the sky without a parachute, what do you do?

So, regarding my fuck up on the previous page- it's just the folder that's fucked, right? Not the saves? Because while no proper saves were created, autosaves apparently were.

Aim for the ground and miss, of course.

 

[Lacrymas]

That splattered on the ground thing makes sense actually. Callistege explains that you aren't immortal and extreme hazards can and will kill you.

I guess your skill was good enough to hit an object of the size of Earth.

That sounds a lot catchier than "What does one life matter?". They should put it up on the steam page

I get a terrible situation over with as quickly as possible. Just like this game. Are you stupid?

 

[Lacrymas]

Actually, now that a few people have completed it, did THE QUESTION ever get explored or was it lost somewhere in development hell? No spoilers obviously :p

Well, you succeeded with that. Why do you complain?

It does.

Given the rabid SJWs on this dev team, I'm sure they go into great detail the wonders of gene therapy and T-blockers.

It gets a chekhov's gun moment but without any consequences.

It feels more like Oh well we wrote about this in marketing stuff, let's do some dialogue about it and be done with it.

Don't get your panties in a fucking twist, buttercup. This is the fucking Codex. Maybe I think this is the greatest game of all time and I'm just being an edgelord. I'll get back to you after my 7th playthrough. It shouldn't take long.

 

[opium fiend]

I really hate all the shoutouts to the original Torment. It would have been alright if they weren't that plenty or that obvious. Did they have to recreate the Smoldering Corpse, many NPCs, even some mini storylines? Really felt cheap seeing O again.

I do love the New Sun-like setting, though.

No problem. Just choose "dive headfirst to the ground" a few more times, and you should be done in half an hour with that.

 

[FeelTheRads]

I'm amused by all the posters who thought ToN's writers would more expertly weave in backer NPC content.

They did, but instead of adapting them to the game they adapted the game to them.

So you can die in the fucking intro? HUHEUHEUHUE! This is gold, pure gold.

Yup. This reminds me of the Traveller RPG, where you could die during character generation.
