Acually I hear people complain that They Changed Now They Suck! or all their songs sound their same! so really as popular as them they have a normal number of hatersDrakane said:
...but doesn't stop me from wanting to see them live or buy their albums
O.T. I haven''t heard any hate about the other Big 4 (megadeth, slayer, and anthrax), mindless self indulgence, Iron Maiden, Judas Priests
I agree, that slow start was a bit of a problem, but I persevered because the game very quickly took a nose dive into darker, more interesting detective noir territory.Racecarlock said:
I hope they hire less French sounding voice actors the next time, though!
That said, I loved the game. Truly gripping once I got past the 'put the dishes away' phase
Sliced Bread. Sitting there all smug and divided into equal parts...
You know what, though? Fuck sliced bread. So overrated. It requires no skill, there's no difficulty curve and it holds your hand through the sandwich making process. It's clearly for casual eaters, not hardcore eaters like me.

You just made my morning, thank you XDbadgersprite said:
OT: Shoes
Sure husbands might be annoyed with all of their wives numerous shoes, but it's hard to hate them.
NO ONE hates Wallace and Gromit.
Close second would be the movie, True Lies. Seriously, I've never met anyone, no matter what demograph they come from that didn't enjoy that movie.

This is so true. I love that series though.audiblemirage said:
Minecraft is also very much loved, along with Mass Effect.
True, true, but then we get a lot of hate, to the extent that I'm what you could (I suppose) call a closet anime watcher IRL.Romidude said:
On Topic: Demotivational Posters, everyone loves them.

You made me smile.badgersprite said:
I....well.....then I guess I'd love a sample of what you like? Your list of why's would be exactly the same list of why I liked ME (both 1 and 2) so I need a frame of reference here to understand your tastes.Stasisesque said:Why Mass Effect especially? The storyline, the voice acting, the characters, the AI, the gameplay. Why Bioware as a whole? Their storylines, their voice acting, their characters, their AI and their gameplay.Udyrfrykte said:
Mass Effect just seems the biggest offender in their armoury of games to me. So far.
EDIT: I'll add Pixar to the list! I mean, I like some of their movies, but seriously, the stories they tell are about as exciting and predictable as watching two blind men duking it out in a UFC fighting arena.
A buddy of mine actually likes Majora's Mask more. Does that count?Twilight_guy said:
Of course my other friend sort of makes up for that in that he hates Majora's Mask and once played through all of Ocarina of Time with his eyes closed.
Okaaaay. Bioshock, for example, I am enthralled by the story - both as told by the diaries, and the gameplay. The gameplay itself I very much enjoy, very basic idea made complex if you desire it; not to mention the moral decisions (no, the pay off was not as good as it could have been, but the game did a fair job of making you think about your actions). The AI was predictable, but certainly not frustrating, and the voice acting was superb - fitted both the genre and the era.camazotz said:I....well.....then I guess I'd love a sample of what you like?

I also enjoy basic (non-realistic) FPSs, big fan of simulation games (becauseI'magirl), enjoy MMOs for their complex lore which you can choose to skip over if you want, you don't need to know any of it, it's just fun.
I simply do not enjoy RPGs, ME claimed to be an RPG of action and consequence, but it still, as all RPGs had a plot you were following - it just gave the illusion of choice. They play, to me, the way Choose Your Own Adventure books do. You might as well just read the pages in chronological order, because you're never going to get your own ending, you're only ever getting the ending they've chosen - but they'll let you pretend you wrote it.
Cool, cool....I also thought Bioshock was an amazingly well done game, and have a better perspective on what it is about Mass Effect that you didn't like, and why. TO contrast, I love RPGs and I feel that RPGs with a storyline and consequence are quite enjoyable, but I would have to rank, say, Fallout 3 as one of my all time favorites because it managed to have an open-world sandbox design while still offering you storylines of depth and consequence (that you could ignore if you so desired). Mass Effect did so as well, although ultimately it had a narrower focus and the open elements were loaded in the middle of the game and not really essential to the main story; ME ended up being very immersive for me because I enjoyed that story, but it was much more linear than Fallout 3.Stasisesque said:Okaaaay.

One neat thing about Bioshock was that it managed to feel open world and exploratory while being on rails, in such a way that it was never specifically evident, because your choice of actions inevitably took you where the story wanted you to go. I guess that's one big difference between ME and Bioshock....in ME you look for segments of the story and string them together. In Bioshock, the story bits lie around waiting to be discovered at more or less your own pace. Both are pretty linear games, but they accomplish the same thing in different ways.
As for MMORPGs.....well, I wish they actually did try harder with their storylines. I love the first 20 or so levels in Age of Conan, for example, which really sets up a great story to be followed, then all but drops it in favor of generic quest grinding and pvp nonsense. But I suppose MMOs do let you play the way you want.....they just feel very hollow to me most of the time.
