I enjoyed it. Several moments had me rolling. Overall, though, it didn't feel better than the first, or even equal, but it's entirely possible that perception would change with additional viewings.

I don't mean direct corporate interference, I mean the overall prevailing mentality of any big studio to treat these as revenue streams and not fucking GAMES. Which is a business executive type of mentality, and not a game designer mentality. These issues are a direct result of that shift in...

Well, maybe it's the issue I said with being hard to articulate, but you're not getting what I'm trying to say. None of what you mentioned about BS1 is the same type of thing I'm talking about. You're lumping anything and everything that's a minor facet of "FPS gameplay" and using it to rebutt...

Yeah, pretty much all of this. Bioshock 1's gameplay (while not STELLAR) was solid enough, and felt ... correct? Infinite, on the other hand, feels artificial and soul-less in the way it's laid out in a formulaic way and such, as you mentioned. And yeah, the skyline stuff felt gimmicky and...

Well, that's just like, your opinion, man. As what I'm saying is partly just mine. I replayed Bioshock a year or so ago, and I enjoyed it just as much as the first time. I also enjoyed the FPS gameplay much, much more than I'm enjoying Infinite's FPS gameplay. I know for certain that the reason...

What Vorph said, and I'm about as far from hipster faggot as you can get.

Ninen- As mentioned in my first post, sir I-don't-really-care-to-read-apparently, I had high hopes due to Ken Levine's direction, as well as most of this thread (although I guess that could have been incorrect memories). But alas, my hopes were misplaced, as they are now with many other...

Yeah, that's kind of my point. If the denizens of this forum think this game is worthy ofanycritical acclaim, then I'm probably just fucked for the foreseeable future. I mean, I don't care what this game did well, if anything. When it's got glaring issues so large as completely lacking FPS...

The first half of your post goes without saying, of course I know that there's nothing wrong with interactive stories. I love most Telltale games. Although I'd disagree heartily that Planescape or Portal belong in this category. I only used that term because it's the closest thing to what...

I guess the comments weren't properly worded then, because I came away with the impression that it was still a good/solid game. There's no excuse for these modern day interactive stories or whatever you want to call this shit the industry is churning out these days. I want to play games, not be...

I may. But likely not, because patronizing these fucks further for another 2 hours of content is fairly counter-intuitive.

Finally getting around to playing this (vanilla) after getting it on a steam sale. Hugely disappointed. I had figured this would be solid given what I understood of the creator (Ken Levine?), but nope, it got AAA'd to all hell. Linear bullshit with zero meaningful choice, and the two-weapon...

Who knows, if those Baldurs Gate remakes do well, maybe we'll get some other old games remade too. Lord knows these industries FUCKING LOVE THE REMAKES OMG! I'd buy a remake of X-wing, TIE-Fighter, and all that stuff in a heartbeat.

Granted, I probably had plenty of other things I could have called attention to. But yes, I went with that, because that's the thing that stood out the most from this completely uninspired trailer for a mediocre rehash of a great franchise/concept that deserves a great game, and not the pile of...

How can a board of gaming nerds not know it's "dwarves" and not "dwarfs?" Fucking Christ, people.

Oh good, the explosions are even more fiery than the movies! I really hope they devote enough dev time to making that fire look as realistic as possible.

Likely to make you more likely to buy gems to convert to gold bags or whatever? Fucking micros.

That actually looks pretty awesome. Nice idea to keep it going.

Or, you troll everyone casting a black African as the whitest of the Norse mythos.

Maybe Apocalypse 2016 means Fox will asplode in that year and Marvel will get all these rights back. I can hope, right?

Thread disappoints. I thought it was an upcoming game, and they had finally cut the shit and were just calling the game what it was.

It was good enough for me to laugh out loud upwards of 4-5 times. This 3-parter competes for their best ever IMO.

So I missed that one session due to my birthday, and this hasn't happened again since, and yet I'm not really feeling like I'm missing out. I was all psyched to play a P&P type thing again for the first time in over a decade, but I think I'm just not at all enamored by the Savage Worlds game...

Well, they used the tesseract to create weapons and shit in Cap'n 'Murica. I still don't get how that thing was supposed to be the Mind gem when it was just powering random weapons with uber-destuction power, but whatever. I don't nit-pick these movies too much, this whole Marvel franchise...

I think it depends on how fast you lose the weight, with regard to the loose skin thing. That said, even if there's no visible loose skin, that shit definitely feels different than someone who never ballooned up to whale status.

Yeah, she definitely screams Amazonian to me.

Oh, I know, I'll watch it just like I watched season 1. But that teaser was bullshit, and I love the show. Just sayin'

Really? This show is such that they think a teaser like that is good, and/or excitement-inducing? I mean it was a good show. But come on. That was comic nerd levels of teaser-bullshit that would only work if it were Thanos smoking a cig for 30 seconds.

Yes, that's the unfortunate truth. It still bugs me that the industry would need to turn over the genre title to those asshats though. I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

Don't let them take that acronym! It belongs to the games that actually fit the title. These new games (and the abortions that some old ones have turned into), MMORPG's they are not.

The fault lies with the designers. I've been replaying Shining Force 1 (and soon 2, just beat 1 again) for the umpteenth time, and loving every minute of it. Games created back when games were still games tend to hold up to replays years down the line, whereas most of this new shit I can't even...

Referring to periods/menstruation with overly colorful euphemisms rustles my jimmies. Don't try to church it up, son.

Lol. If I'm meeting any more than 3-4 people, I won't remember ANY of their names unless they do something to stand out. Often I'll end up at a get-together of a friend's/acquaintance's, and I'll know like 2 of the 20 people there. Good fucking luck remembering anyone's names. Whatever.

Our "states" are about as meaningful as counties and France's "administrative regions" anyway. Who gives a shit if anyone knows where the fuck they are.

So you want Carl Urban, or Karl Urban? GET ME MORE KURL URBINS.

It's "Weener"

Ooooone weeeener, next to anoooother weeener(horse weener)

It has come to homogenization?

Nah, that line, plus Ford's delivery, fit the Han Solo character perfectly.

You seriously don't discern a difference between Diablo 2's system of "Here, go wherever the fuck you want and kill shit, and see what drops. Enjoy!" ... compared to this nonsense (even D3 vanilla had it via the quest system, although since it was only a bunch of XP, it wasn't this bad) where...
