Trigger the codex with a statement.

Can you imagine someone going onto a cycling forum called some shit like "CycleWorld", going into a thread titled "trigger cycleworld with a statement", and typing "bicycles suck!"

RPGs are a dying genre and the rotting pus from their corpse has ruined more games than there were ever good RPGs. Constant story interruptions and drip feeding you stat increases has made modern gaming a slog and RPGs did it first.

go play FIFA then, newfag casual

FIFA is an RPG, maybe even the best RPG ever made

You're confusing FIFA with Football Manager.

FIFA is a football manager RPG

 

[Wesp5]

Yeah, this thread is just completely superfluous...

 

[Chippy]

The fact that there seems to be as much interest in Wrath of the Furries & BG3: Bear Grappler as there is in the masterpiece that is King Arthur: Knight's Tale, says a lot about the Codex in its current form.

You take a team of characters and play matches with them to increase their stats. That's the core of an RPG there.

Sports games have RPG elements these days. So yes, RPG pus dripping into them too.

Only so they can sell card packs where players have different stats dependent on rarity of whatever version you got of the same player.

Elves are more beautiful, taller, smarter, faster, more intelligent than dwarves and can snipe them 300m away with a poisoned arrow.

The disadvantage is they're gay.

disadvantage? why? orkz LOVE them.

Yes I can.
I'm waiting for a volunteer to do it. Codexers - don't disappoint me!
https://www.cycleworld.com - unfortunately, it seems that they've closed their forum a few years ago. F***g decline. Any forum about bicycles will do.

 

[The Jester]

I enjoy Oblivion.

 

[Jvegi]

I'm 40 minutes into Indy 5, and it's actually not bad so far. Other than the close-ups of cgi Harrison Ford.

I'm starting to think you guys don't like real adventure movies. You shit on Uncharted and Solo, you shit on this movie...

 

[Modron]

I don't remember shitting on Solo (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0117688/), it was goofy but a fairly watchable popcorn flick.

 

[Silverfish]

I'm starting to think you guys don't like real adventure movies.

What are you talking about? I loved Ninja 3: The Domination.

 

[Zlaja]

Quake 2 > Quake 1

Deal with it.

 

[HeatEXTEND]

Solo

Was decent adventure fun.

 

[Atlantico]

Solo was peak Star Wars and Erenreich nailed the character wow 10/10

 

[Arbiter]

I like Fallout much more than Arcanum.

 

[Butter]

I like Fallout much more than Arcanum.

Same, but I'm a sucker for first-person shooters.

I'm probably not gonna make any friends with this post, but here goes...


1) The Might & Magic series as a whole trounces the Wizardry series. Every Might and Magic release since the first one is superior to its closest Wizardry contemporary, with the sole excepion of MM9 vs Wizardry 8.
Even what most people consider the 2 best entries, Wizardry 6 and 7, don't hold a candle to MM2, MM3 and World of Xeen.
Wizardry 6's sole tile set is gray stones, even you go into a "forest". They had time to draw pixellated boobs, so they had time to draw a decent 2nd tile set. MM1 came out in 1986 and had 6-7 different tile sets! And I'm not even mentioning MM2 which came out in 1989, also before Wiz6.
Wizardry 7 makes you fight (or talk to) annoying rat men for the entirety of the game. I swear for a super long game, most encounters are either rat men, orcs, or those blonde chicks on hover bikes.

2) Baldur's Gate 1 and 2 are great..... but the joinable NPCs are retarded. Their lines are 100% pure annoyance and their stats suck compared to my team.
I create my own party from scratch in "multiplayer" mode ( 5 out of 6 characters), and move the save game in the single player saved game folder.
Romances can eat shit. Jaheira can eat shit.
That dumb, bald guy with the rodent is dead as soon as I encounter him.
BG2 should have put dialog options when you first meet them: "I thought I killed you. Aren't you dead?"

3) The entire Ultima series, except for the Ultima Underworld games, is shit.
Shit BORING combat, shit ability system, shit level up system, tons of game breaking bugs. ESPECIALLY Ultima 7 part 2.
Ultima Underworld 1 & 2 are the only good games bearing the Ultima name.

4) Elder Scrolls is complete shit. Not even worth playing. Elder Scrolls fans have been the most annoying sycophants ever since the 2nd one, Daggerfall, back in the mid-90s. Morrowind is also shit. Everything Bethesda has ever touched turned to shit, with the exception of Fallout New Vegas.

Where is the trigger statement?

 

[UndeadHalfOrc]

Most Wizardy fans denigrate the M&M series (especially 3-4-5) as "Popamole"
Newsflash: popamole encounters are designed that way, for trash mobs your party can easily beat, the designers made it so your characters can trounce them in a second so as to not drag the gameplay down. In fights vs difficult encounters you need to take each turn carefully, have every caster carefully chooses his spells, have your thief uses his stash of wands and potions you've accumulated, etc.

Contrats this to Wizardry 6-7-8, where every single trivial fight vs some stupid bats, rat men, beach crabs, or small plant, takes a fucking year.

 

[Lemming42]

Wizardry wins because of Wiz8. It's just that good, and Wiz7 is not far behind. Wiz6 does admittedly get extremely boring thanks to the graphics; in addition to everything being a stone corridor, it just looks fucking shit in general. It's not even an attractive stone corridor, and the UI looks awful too.
