    I can't deny that. I will never state that Bugthesda has great writers. In the past they had OK writers. The one liners and some easter eggs were fun and interesting but they keep on getting more and more lazy. The proof is those DLC (and better) sized mods that were created for Skyrim and Fallout NV. IMO if a mod author and their team can make someting on par of or in several cases better than a AAA company main IP releases.... then there is something wrong with the company. I assume Emil Pagliarugo is the genius that gave us Fallout 4 main story? On another note, every release of a game in the Fallout franchise (TES as well) has gotten lazier and lazier writings. Now the game is so bad (Main story) with their new franchise Starfail that mod authors aren't even willing to work on the game. Yes, there are issues with the game engine but with such a vacant story combined with bad code, they just aren't going to work on it any more. Writing is one of the cheapest ways to make a game great. Hook them with options and story and keep their interest and many players expecially fans would deal with the old bugs that have been a pat of that engine since the beginning. The mod authors would work to overcome the issues IMO much like they did for Skyrim and having to work around getting animations into the game. They would have a read and large ongoing fan base for the game to work with and get praises from (and now with paid mods potential $$$ as well)

    That is because the Sole Survivor was a synth. 1. only memories from right before the bomb. Any reference to what they did or were was only available with photo and diplomas etc. (hinted by that synth at far point I forget his name) 2. Everybody died in the vault. Why they lived until Kellog came to kill your spouse? (a lie based on partial fact is very believable. Likley Kellog did go there to collect materials. Werent' all 3 gen synths suuppose to be from materials from the vault? Clean un-altered / damaged materials? If it was just the soul survors spouse.... that doesn't meash with fact that there are different races present in the 3 gen and coursair models. ) 3. skill was inset that the sole survivor could live in the wasteland. Even the woman that was a lawyer. (if you choose that option) I believe the male is beliveable as he had military experience but not the wife. (an option) (remember corsairs are created knowing basic skills and knowlege. .. aka programed) 4. Nobody at the institue had any issues with Father giving both access and control to the soul survivor. (however, note... no real control just in name. ) (a failsafe in case the experiment was able to get to the vault. A path of control where the soul survivor was instructed .. key word here... to handle problems for the institute. Notice, the soul survivor had a motivation to KILL Kellog. Which there are plenty of references they had a concern with him (institute)). 5. able to take down a courser by him/her self. Synths so deadly that nobody survived encounteres with them. (WTF... seriously? ) I don't believe it was meant to hold up to any scrutiny. However, also tried to attempt to have it be able to fit whatever the user wanted. That they screwed up bad. Another better example is Bioshock where the player learns that he was controled throughout the entire game. Would you kindly. Keep in mind that there were key word and such implanted in synths to control them, motivate them. Well that is my 2 cents.

    Oh I thought you were still talking about picking locks in BG3. I never did much with Gale. In one start, I didn't even get him. (I think I cut his arm)

    I've seen way worse in games recently released (ugly characters). they weren't the best, however, I didn't see a need to do much to most of them. Oversexed followers? Picking Locks to earn love? I must be missing some part of the game. LOL Sign me up! lol. The camera isn't bad IMO but it has room for some improvements. It has improved since I got it awhile back. (I believe they have been making improvements .. lots of them continuiously. ) The Message (ACT 3) I missed. Havent went beyond ACT 2 (not completed it ) I just kept on recreating characters and seeing how they did etc. Playing with settings and such. Added a few mods. At the time I was really playing it there was much work needed on the manager and tools. They are doing lots of work even since I bought the game months back. The thing IMO to consider and give credit is they didn't follow what other developers do and they really worked hard to give a good running quality product. Way better than games released around the time the game was released. I saw an article mentioning that games like theirs wouldn't have been as praised if it was released 5 years ago. Game dev has gone down badly since then (longer IMO) Waiting for a special release is a good thing to do. My thought was wait until this game is on a major sale and pick it up. This is advice for those that are so jaded by games and/or just don't want to be disappointed

    BG3 is by no means perfect. It can start to get on one's nerves and I can't place exactly what that is. At least for me that is the case. I can say however, it delievers as advertised for the most part. Far better than AAA games that are being hyped. The same goes for tht Hogwarts game. A decent game but not perfect. Does a good job (for someone that isn't a potter fan) for play. Both games I learned from others that I know. Then I watched game play footage from reviewers and some of them are along the same taste as I have. As for BG3 for you @endgameaddiction I wouldn't advise you get it until it was on a great sale. And then only if you are board. It is a third person game which I believe you like however, you are actually controling up to 4 people at a time. I haven't gone beyond the second chapter so I can verify how the game changes according to your choices beyond the game videos I have seen on the web.

    I have to do so much fucking searching and learning before I buy a game because I just can't stomach wasting money on a game I don't like. Look, I am perfectly happy to buy a game and play it once or twice etc. if it is awesome. I am fine with not playing it like I did fallout 3 and NV. (thousands of hours) We need a thread where we talk about real games that work well and worth playing here

    DarkOne being a cunt isn't news lol.

    Of course, Bugthesda has been lowering the I.Q. of their AI ever since Morrowind. At least now he admits it. If this was an A.A. meeting, it would be the first step to recovery.... Unfortunately, this isn't an A.A. meeting and the only way Bughesthesda will improve their A.I. is if they get rid of their leaders like Todd
  9. ritualclarity
    Perhaps. Maybe someting more Just Wow!

    Indeed. Did Nancy literally state a complaint about shipping them up north instead of using them to pick crops?
  11. ritualclarity
    6.30. WTF the speed.
  12. ritualclarity
    I missed that song somehow... Never heard it. At least I can't remember it and a song like that I would likely remember
  13. ritualclarity
    Even he knows that it isn't safe in the US... lol
  14. ritualclarity
    Except if you had a 12-15 year old PC that died.
  15. ritualclarity
    I just re-watched the trailer and you are right. It looks even more shitty then it did the first time I saw it. When I saw brought to you by the company that gave you 2 day shipping etc. I was like WTF does that have to do with creating a decent series?
  16. ritualclarity
    Pronouns isn't the issue. It never is really the issue. Being able to have a dick and tits now a days in games isn't the issue. The issue is a piss poor crapy game. Cyberpunk for example once they fixed all the bugs now people like it. Nobody is talking about how you can have a dick and tits. SAme goes for Baulder's gate 3. Nobody gives a fuck. Why, those games are decent to great. Give quality games and for most people, they don't give a shit.
  17. ritualclarity
    Yea, I was being lazy. I checked it isn't released until April. Also, don't know why there is a double quote ...
  18. ritualclarity
    Why is the camera angled at everybody asses?
  19. ritualclarity
    Games can't even be made decently, and now they are reworking the game? A remake? WTF. I hope the company full of previous witcher game developers would be a good team, however, why a rework. The game doesn't need to be remake except perhaps graphics. Im so jaded in regardes to the gaming company. I hope they can deliver. It would be better in my opinion that they start their own franchises and not be tied (held hostage) to other companies that aren't doing well and churning out shit. Rmember as good as CD Project Red was, their CyberPunk game was released as shit it took over a year to get back up to a decent level where they should have been when they released the game. Not even talking about all the other shit they pumped into the game.
  20. ritualclarity
    Has it been released? Dam, must be shit if it is so as I haven't heard anything from anybody. I mention this as people I know love the Fallout game (well the old one not the crap they released recently of course) Perhaps with all the shit they are doing (Bugthesda) people have just given up. Is creating a show on Fallout the last ditch effort to get fans re-involved?

    She has always been extremely stupid. If it wasn't for her being in movies, she would likely only be able to get a casheer job or a fry cook job. (As far as I am aware she hasn't been in any major thoughtful movies and pretty much only hired for her looks.) The olympic levels of thought required to even begin to understand her so very screwed up logic is ... well beyond my ability. I've met people that were challenged in their thought processes, but seriously I can count on one hand the amount of people with her out of touch level of logic on one hand that didn't have severe levels of mental illness.
  22. ritualclarity
    With people like those, who needs enemies.
  23. ritualclarity
    Holly SHIT. This is 100% the reason that there needs to be more funding for those that have serious mental illness. This is worse than I could every imagine. Shit, I could only take about 20 minutes of this shit.
  24. ritualclarity
    Jesus, I heard that every once in a while the sun shines on a dog's ass. Doesn't mean I want to look at the dogs ass when the sun is shining on it. I haven't seen the clip yet... I can imagine how the troubles that occur is somehow personally my fault.
  25. ritualclarity
    With the shit that is being released when a game does a good job (works well) with a very good story (which it does have) and options which actually change the story (fairly well. They could have been a bit better in this regard) the game needs to be hyped. This great hype is making all the other publishers get pissed off. Shake in their boots etc. And rightfully so. They produce shit and think that shit is what is suppose to be produced and distributed and a game comes along and shows that it doesn't have to be that way. The key main difference is the hype is very strong on the users side not the fake hype bullshit that is happening with a bugthesda game being released or for that matter most other games. When a game comes along and works well, has a good story and delivers a satisfying game for those that buy it... it deserves to be hyped out of this world. They need the positive feedback to help overcome all the bullshit that other poor producers create. I got the game and played it for many hours. Never completed the story and set it aside as It isn't really a game for me. However, I will hype it as a good solid game with meaniful game play to anyone that is intersted in this type of game because of the mention above.
