    Speak Your Mind in the Next Version of Dungeons & Dragons

    Let's hope this time it goes back to being an RPG instead of a poorly designed wargame. The combat grid has killed roleplaying as early as the Player's Options & Combat in 2e AD&D, somehow i don't think the designers will understand the difference this time around, or ever again. 4e is the apex...

    Boss Fights

    I am going through my second play in Alpha Protocol. My first play was on the Recruit mode, on Hard, with all my points going toward Stealth, Sabotage and Martial Arts on that order, i used the Infiltrator armor (and its variations) throughout the whole game and i didn't kill anyone. I played...

    Character Names

    Usually the problem is not the lack of mention in the voice acting, its when games don't much develop the main character at all, and hes not even a relevant part of the story, one of the few good things about Nier is that the main character voices his opinions, acts like he cares etc...

    Poll: D&D

    Lol 60%? since this is a game site ill have to say, i hardly ever have time to play d&d tabletop lately so i have been spending a lot of time in Dungeons and Dragons Online, which is based on 3e and has an awesome active combat system, dungeons, traps and even DM narrators (with contributions...

    Miyamoto: "I Never Said Games Are Art"

    If anyone can say this, its Miyamoto, his focus is entirely on gameplay alone and the man is a genius at it. But that doesn't mean that there are games out there with different experiences that can be considered art. Its two sides of the same coin.

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    Besides, Sarevok didn't hold a candle to Jon Irenicus, he was a low pick, but even he was better portrayed than Loghain or the "big bad mean demon".

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    Oh you mean that guy that sat in the corner moping while his henchman did all the work? (or tried at least) it was all so pathetic i didnt even feel anything but pity for the bloke.

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    Yeah, silly me to expect the game to have an engaging confrontation with a well characterized villain while playing through the game without having to "read about it" in journals or wait two years for the expansions to clear it all up eventually. If only i had bought and read the novels, then i...

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    Yep, precisely my point, a hundred hours of play to beat an average joe fiend with a generic name "really big bad demon". Im not saying its a bad game, at all, i wouldnt have endured playing through it this much if it was, it certainly has its moments. For me the best parts were the dwarven and...

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    People who are resistant to the taint are regarded as special, i didnt even mention the obvious effects on party members because they are player characters and thus are assumed to necessarily be immune to the taint during the game for gameplay reasons. Even those resistant special people...

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    Does not apply. its a story flaw, not a mechanic flaw. The funniest thing is that the game will make sure everyone that so much scratches a skeleton with a butter knife gets plastered with blood all over their face and they wont even bother wiping it off. Thats a mechanic, but also a...

    Whats the best F2P MMO?

    Even when there were levelling sigils, all you had to do was run a few quests until you got a Sigil as an end reward. So paying to level was optional and a convenience purchase. If you buy the adventure packs you get access to the content for the duration of the service so in a way its pretty...

    Whats the best F2P MMO?

    This. and since a lot of people don't know much about DDO ill give a short review: Im loving the fact i could just subscribe for a few months then buy all the end game and not have to worry about it anymore, now i can play on my own time The Good This game is truly one of a kind, its...

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    How about that part in the very beginning of the game when a training sergeant is instructing soldiers about how dangerous it is to touch the body of darkspawn. How bout the fact that Grey Wardens have to Consume the blood of Darkspawn to become Immune to the Taint itself Its not...

    Dragon Age Origins Fatal Flaw

    No i complained that they didn't pull off a cliché, in a very annoying way. If at least the golem was an interesting radical thinker or had a nihilistic point of view like the robot from the Hitchhikers guide to the galaxy. It would be fine and could even be good. This has been done before, the...
