Because you can already determine FallOut will be better, AFTER you mentioned you hate the direction FallOut 3 is going.

Good logic there, dude.

EDIT: At least, I'm fairly certain that was you... now I'm kinda doubting.

I've made it perfectly clear that I'm highly anticipating Fallout 3.

The only thing I was iffy about was the exploding cars.

Melfice 10-22-2008 02:52 PM

Alright, my bad.
Must've been mistaking you for somebody else then.

Sorry.

Got the LE today, and I'm liking it so far. The Master Chief sword is pretty rockin'. I also really like the Time Control ability.

I'm starting to become disenchanted with the game completely. Maybe I'm just not a fan of Sims style, but I'm just kind of bored. Dead Space had high-tension combat and a story that kept me hooked.

Fable 2 is just kind of...eh. Everyone is a complete pushover. I have a handful of techniques for close-combat and one Fireball, and I've barely ever been hit. There's no difficulty to adjust or else I'd do that.

It isn't challenging at all. Having the blood of a Hero is stupid because anyone who picks up a sword and swings it at the enemies can kill them without even trying.

That and I'm getting frustrated with my wife loving me intensely and thinking I'm completely pure, but is scared of me. What the hell? How did that happen? The food system of 'MEAT = FATTIE LOL' is just all kinds of dumb, considering the kind that do physical activity...you know...generally need protein? The amazing fantasy epic of this game is a backseat to everything else you can do, and the parts that are 'everything else' aren't finished or well thought-out. It's slightly more engaging than Oblivion but that isn't saying much.

Also damn it how do you have sex with your wife.

You get her to follow you, go to a bed and press A according to the manual.

Mirai Gen 10-23-2008 03:43 PM

Every time I do that I end up resting for 6, 12, etc etc.

Magus 10-23-2008 06:07 PM

If it's anything like Fable then you have to wait until she goes something like, "Well, let's go to bed then, dearie. Tee hee" or something to that effect.

Does this game's moral dilemmas represent realistic choices this time or is it still basically "Save children from burning orphanage, or buy orphanage and burn it down yourself with children inside to commit insurance fraud and please the dark god Grathosinus"?

You need to buy the 'come hither, dear' book to get the 'come back to my place' expression.

This also works on all manner of vagabond, anyone who has 'unchaste' in their personality mock up, and most whores.

Have fun catching your STDs, now, ya little scamp.

There's no 'opinion of me' for pure.

There's scared/laughable, love/hate, and hot/ugly.

She thinks you're a bit scary but still hot and she loves you. Totally possible. Especially if you go around killing people--she might have a (probably rational, you terrible wife-beating ass) fear that you'll unleash some of that terrible rage at her.

Also: There was the time I sacrificed my spouse to the temple of shadows to get a sweet ass sword. I can see where that would put off all potential comers, though I did only marry the sod to do so.

Edit 2: Magus: There's a part of the game where you have to choose between being tortured yourself, and causing your 'captors' not to trust you, or allowing people to starve to death and killing a man who has been driven insane--his mind completely destroyed--by the exact torture they're threatening you with. I'd say that's a pretty decent moral dilemma. I could see perfectly moral people allowing the worse in the hopes it would get them in a position to kill the bad guys quicker, or at least leave them able to.

There's also the farmer who's trying to set his gay son up with a woman, 'cause he doesn't know his kid is gay. Kind of enjoyed that one myself. Less a moral dilemma, but I was still surprised they put it in there.

Though the more... simplistic... moral dilemmas also exist. Kill the farmer with the bandit or save him from them, etc. Though I dig how such things actually alter the game every time there's a time skip. I.E. giving the warrants to the thug as a kid makes old town bowerstone into a slum with fat whores and assassination contracts. Giving them to the guard makes it into a thriving metropolitan area where you get discounts at all the shops.

I'm digging the sense of humor the game has, too. Swarthy Swashbuckler Indigo: Find it and read the description. Also Gorgorron (sp?) in the crucible. Do some expressions for the little girl. It's great. Oh, and be sure to check her 'personality' by targeting and hitting Y.

Holy crap, Krylo...'

Don't tell me she was 16 and a virgin as well...
