    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Controls in DA2 are fine. Hodj is just a baddie who needs to get carried but can't in singleplayer games. From the PC side you see games that are watered down to support being playable with a controller. The FPS genre is basically dead to me because the gameplay is so slow compared to quake...

    Thor: The Dark World.

    That shit would be great if they could present Thanos as a compelling enough villian. You can't just make Darth Vaders out of thin air.

    You think he tapped out to that sick underhook GSP had? I saw the tap when it happened but it made no sense because GSP's guillotine wasn't anywhere near threatening. It was almost certainly just a weird hand movement that happened to look like a tap.

    another thing that's lost on this is that GSP really proved he can take a punch and keep coming. In fact I'd argue that once he started getting hit he switched to a much more aggressive style. He may not have been able to come back from it but that proved he has the heart of a champion in a way...

    you make a good point. I guess I'm conflating the actual scoring mechanism with it being a champion fight and how bad GSP was hurt. From his own words he doesn't remember huge parts of the fight.

    Thor: The Dark World.

    Thor inheriting the odinforce for avengers 2 would make him completely outclass the rest of the avengers even more, right? yup.

    I still feel pretty good about saying this was the worst decision of all time. Maybe I'd change my mind if I looked at the round to round scoring but the bottom line is that GSP got his ass kicked on Saturday, did very little to Hendricks and kept his title.

    Fallout 4

    I never liked 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' character choices. Surprising bad outcomes from well intentioned decisions are realistic but they are still annoying and make you not care about the world. Maybe it's just the lawful good in me but I like to enter in a world of shit and...

    DA2 being shitty because Bioware did a shitty job of appealing to a larger demographic doesn't demand that all appeals to a larger demographic are going to result in shitty games. This statement basically refutes your argument so I'm going to declare victory.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    It's not a complex argument even if you convolute it with too many words. DA2 sucked because they made dumb decisions not because they gave it the CoD treatment.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Nah. The debate is whether or not Bioware can appeal to casuals and female gamers and the old school RPG crowd.

    It's like you're just regurgitating talking points without regard to context or what you're saying. Small government, low taxes, Christian nation, get your hands off my medicare. EA wanting to milk their IPs, targeted towards casuals, appealing to the broadest demographic

    Fallout 4

    These awkward convoluted choices in quests never resonated with me. The best moral choices were more subtle and driven by player desire, greed and ambition. Most quest-based moral choices involve choosing a personality for a character (good/evil, typically) and then being offered a good or evil...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Hodj, the 'games used to be good before they started making them for dirty casuals' argument is pretty easy to make, especially on this forum but you're screwing it up. Also brevity is the soul of wit.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    This is pretty much your flawed reasoning here. You're assuming that Bioware sat down and said, "Ok, we need to distribute the budget. Because we're spending X dollars on designers, devs, writers and artists to do romance options for the characters we simply can't ensure that the encounter...

    The Wire: Greatest Show Ever Made

    The other thing I forgot to mention is that when Carcetti was campaigning to become Gov he promised half of whatever funding to another district. That money was supposed to make it morally acceptable to skip to the governor's seat instead of fixing bmore.

    Nothing wrong with being excited that an outfit with the best resume in RPGs is making a big budget RPG with extremely talented people and some overall goals that are compelling. What is wrong is pre-ordering DAI before we find out whether it is any good!

    From everything Iv'e read the bugs/stability aren't really the problem, the game is flawed at most levels. A world/galaxy size <10% of X:Albion, no radar, no flight stick, this goofy station interaction system for trading and poor combat controls pretty much damn this game thoroughly.
