True, but I think most of these types of games would be rubbish compared to GTA!

Realised yesterday that I'm only at 50% completion, not as much as I'd have thought after killing Sonny.

Just Finished Grim Fandango
Great game
I'm planning to Buy and Play Tales of Monkey Island at the weekend
I'd have got it earlier but I've had exams and had to play Grim Fandango before hand

Ni no kuni

Best game for a looooooong time!

90001/10

Gman5852 · 02/24/2013, 10:21 am

Currently playing Fire Emblem, and I gotta say, I LOVE the idea that a character that I liked randomly vanished after recruiting and no longer exists and I LOVE how the game makes me save before I can check the screen that shows her vanishing so I could redo the mission where she glitched out...

Oh wait, no I don't. Nor do I like the game's stat screens showing me the wrong things such as when it says an enemy can go 5 squares and then proceeds to go 10 and kill someone.
EDIT:Yep, did everything as supposed to for her to join and the game just despawns her, so glad we have bug checking!

Finished Epic Mickey 2. I didn't really have any trouble playing it by myself. I did take control of Oswald myself a few times, but mainly only in the projector screen levels to get extra E-Tickets or if Mickey wasn't in the right place to get the film reel. Other than that, the AI and I got along just fine.

Alcoremortis · 03/03/2013, 04:27 pm

So does this mean you're going to play Planescape: Torment now? XDDDDD

Chyron8472 · 03/03/2013, 07:13 pm

Or King's Quest?

*GuruGuru214* · 03/03/2013, 10:55 pm

I'd rather play Captain Novolin than King's Quest. And Captain Novolin has the added advantage that I actually own it (thanks to a joke Christmas gift).

As for Planescape:Torment, I don't see that I have much of a choice, do I?

The Kings Quest Remake is great and free. Let me say that again: it's free.

*GuruGuru214* · 03/03/2013, 11:15 pm

I'd still rather play Captain Novolin. The best way to kill my interest in a game is to nag me about how I should play it.

I've changed my mind entirely. The only game I'm playing tonight is the Ocarina of Time debug ROM. It's time I started trying to sprite Kakariko.

Secret Fawful · 03/03/2013, 11:22 pm

The only way to kill my interest in a game is if it's either bad or just not my genre or if it's boring as hell. I look at things for their merits or artistic intent more than often, or if they're funny.

Games like Planescape scare me because I'm afraid of the ramifications of my actions down the line. Same for The Walking Dead. Games like Spec Ops where the game has ramifications without my conscious input is much more comfortable to me. If I have control over where things go, I'm always going to wuss out and go for the best available option, and restart if I screw up. The only game I'm comfortable with asshole choices in is a Fallout game or Alpha Protocol, oddly enough, but that's because it can be so much fun. In Planescape, I want the Nameless One to succeed, so the pressure is massive on me. If I have no control over the character's choices, not only can I relax, but I can concentrate better on the story they're trying to tell me.

But from a designing perspective, I think the people who can put these choices together and make them stick are geniuses.

I get through KOTOR by forcing myself to get through KOTOR. I really don't enjoy KOTOR.

Alcoremortis · 03/03/2013, 11:39 pm

The nice thing about Planescape, though is that regardless of what you do, you can still win the game. The game gives you a win regardless of how you get to the ending, and since you're immortal, you will eventually win. It rewards you, however, for taking a nonviolent approach by giving you more of the story and that story is pretty damn worth it.

And there are quite a few endings to it that are real endings but are not the intended end of the game. like:
Killing yourself with the only thing that can kill you or becoming the next Silent King

Ended up passing out last night instead of playing anything. Tonight, I got to have a hangout for the first time in a while, so Fawful and I finished off Sonic Heroes. We didn't want to sit through the whole game four times, so I finished with Team Sonic, we watched the other three sets of cutscenes on YouTube, and I played the last story.

Secret Fawful · 03/05/2013, 02:06 am

Sonic Heroes is the shittiest Sonic game I have ever seen. Except for the final boss. That was cool. The rest sucks shiz.

*Darth Marsden* · 03/05/2013, 02:18 am

You guys have my sympathies. It's been quite some time since I played Heroes, but I remember it being just awful. I had to cheat and give myself infinite lives just to get through it.

I'm currently playing a bunch of Half-Life mods. AGAIN. Odd how I keep going back to this game...

*GuruGuru214* · 03/05/2013, 03:20 am

I actually never had a problem with the lives. By the end, I was maxed out at 99. Still, I had to cheat to get through it the first time as well. I had to download a completed save and a Wii homebrew program, which for some reason could only transfer saves onto third party memory cards, so I had to buy one cheap from Hong Kong. All because I couldn't beat the later Special Stages and finish getting the Chaos Emeralds to unlock the last story.

I actually had a save file that had all four stories complete, lives maxed out at 99, and 5 Chaos Emeralds (it was two Emeralds for a few years, until I finally managed to beat the third Special Stage), and I had to download a save to finish the game.

Secret Fawful · 03/05/2013, 03:24 am

Shocker: I like Unleashed and everything about it. On PS3. From watching on Youtube.

Oh my god, those glitchy as hell Special Stages. SO frustrating.

Actually, now I think about it, it was those Special Stages I had to cheat for. The infinite lives was for Shadow the Hedgehog, which I still never bothered to finish.

Equal shocker: I've finished the Wii version twice and loved it both times.
