"Fall Out 3 is the game Black Islands would have made if 90s computers had been fast enough to render vast, beautiful 3D worlds in real-time."

I was just commenting on the post a bit earlier where Moloneux said he never made a great game.

It can trigger you if you think he made great games, if you think he never made any good game, or if you think he doesn't deserve any mention on the codex. Also, it could trigger you if you doubt he said that.

Eidos Montreal will usher in a new golden age of immersive sims, and the old classics by Looking Glass and Ion Storm will pale in comparison.

Codexers who say they don't care about Codex ratings are full of shit, and faithfully tailor every statement and opinion for recognition like good little doggies.

Every Codexer knows that there will never be an RPG that will satisfy him because he is not 12 anymore, but he will keep bashing every RPG that comes out 'cuz it gives him a weird boner.

The Best Weapon of all Time is the fork. This weapon has been in use since ancient times, when it was nothing more than two sticks that actually made eating harder. The earliest examples of metal forks date from the Bronze Age. During the Middle Ages advanced metalworking skills made it possible to create forks that were around 80 cm long. At that time the fork evolved from a choice weapon of trained soldiers into a specialized tool to penetrate heavy armor. Knights frequently carried fork-type weapons as a sidearm which allowed them to instantly pierce the skulls and roll up the brains of infantrymen. With the advent of firearms forks mostly went out of use, with a few notable examples; the British Empire issued special three-pronged forks to its armies which proved quite effective against the Maoris' own two-handed spoons during the conquest of Sillydance Island. The twentieth century saw a resurgence of the fork in the bloody trenches of World War I. It is estimated that there are currently billions of forks in private hands, particularly in the United States.

Fallout 4 is a better RPG than Tyranny since it received better reviews.

Every codexer genuinely wrote down in another thread one of the sentence mentioned here, at least once, and i am only counting this year.

The vast majority of past and future RPGs would be better for having quest compasses.

It's possible to make a game that functions well without quest compasses, but it takes a very skilled writer. He has to consistently write directions that hit the sweet spot between "incomprehensible" and "too obvious." The journal also needs to record each and every direction given, verbatim, or players who quit for a while then resume playing get screwed. Very few RPGs get all this in place.
