I get so bored sometimes.
-
So after careful analysis of my sleep patterns within the past few weeks I show all the signs of possible narcolepsy. I've achieved REM sleep in under ten minutes, fallen asleep at inappropriate times, disturbed night sleep and an odd sleeping pattern resulting in need for day sleep. I've even taking sleeping pills and they just screwed me over more. My oh my it's a visit to a doctor for me.
-
Well. I'm having a good case of life block: Not knowing what to do.
-
@fallinwinter It took a while for it to sink in for me as well, I just buy what I'm interested in.
-
@ceruleanspark I'm pretty Jealous, I can't afford Apple Jack yet and she's my favourite pony.
-
@fallinwinter They still cater to the gamer, never a specific type though. Then because it's a general audience they market to that means some things like decisions will have to be black and white. The recent success of the game was because it could be played like an fps or whatever way you liked which got a bigger audience than the original fans and RPG players. Does that make any more sense?
-
@ceruleanspark You can also pretend they are bows!
-
@fallinwinter I never said it was right and never said it was about being cheap. It's just what most have in mind when you hear "about the player" in an interview it translates to that, mostly cause marketing = success and no success = failure. Interplay used to be all about the player, then went under and that's when the licence transferred to Bethesda, Fallout has had the option you're talking about but it's in the original two when Interplay was at the helm.
-
@fallinwinter It's a stepback not for gaming though, too broad. Step back for storytelling yes. Necessary though, I think I mentioned if less is made from sales than spent in production means the game would be a market flop or not, I speak with people from the industry frequently and they're hardly ever focused on the player and if so it's to market better. Why do you think Rare is so proud of Kinect Sports?
-
@fallinwinter I personally think it would take out some of the roleplaying and become a choice game. That and to take away some black and white out of the game would leave it confusing to a less intelligent audience and really, it's all about how it sells and if that's a large part of the community, you sell. No revenue no more games unfortunately, even if I do feel your pain about having more subtle choices.
-
@ceruleanspark Exactly! It's a really difficult thing to do is create a good sense of morals in a videogames. Fallout does it clumsily but well.
-
@fallinwinter You could take away the player seeing it but it would still be a value. Reputation is a way of monitoring Karma with several different individuals without having to go and code every individual person, efficient : D so you sorta get the town thing going on but not in such a focused method.
-
@ceruleanspark I thought that too. I mean there was less chance of survival if you lived round that white house, heck! The white house has Rads so high you can't stand in there for long.
-
@ceruleanspark I'll agree with that but some of the more hardcore fans need to realise it's a whole 'nother side of the country with a different survival rate. I preferred it more for immersion than NV
-
@fallinwinter I prefer factions to be honest. Means you could have legitimate alliances rather than having everyone hate you for being evil when your decisions further their interests.

@madflavors Mawnin

@ceruleanspark I do that alot. I even did it with a character from a book once is rather fun.
-
@fallinwinter Skyrim will be interesting to say the least. I'm excited very excited actually. I agree with you about the interest of games, FO:NV seemed to take it back for classic players back to California where the first two were and explore what's happened over time there. Ironically I still find the best fallout game to be number 2 when interplay had the licence and you were nothing more than a tribal with a pointy stick, some suspiscious looking bag of powder and an old musty vault 13 jumpsuit.
-
@ceruleanspark Not at all.
-
@fallinwinter All this talk about it makes me wanna slink back into my cosy little stable and play it.
-
@fallinwinter That's a very legendary slip up.

@ceruleanspark Hey there to you too how ya'all feeling this fine morn/evening? I'm pretty ship-shape.
-
It's hip to be square!
-
@abigpony Cage the Elephant or?
-
Cloudy days are the best.
-
@madflavors You should. I've bookmarked it for later.
-
@pawnheart Oh nelly!
-
@cptscootaloo Ok I just noticed it's easier. :D

@cptscootaloo What do you use to draw with. If it's photoshop or SAI you can resize the image. Draw on a large canvas then size it down.
