It's funny, even though I know the (...) is basically just the skipping of random text in the article that is being quoted, It's still hard to think of it that way. It always looks like the person who's quoting the article is using ellipsis to make a point. Like this for example: "Fallout 3...

Plus, most JRPGs have the option of skipping said cinematics.. often by accident when you'd just like to pause it. xP "Wait.. what.. who is that? What's going on? Why am I fighting him. Was that suppose to be Perseus or something?" Not that God of War 2 is a JRPG or anything, but that...

Never heard of Weaveworld, but I've played Undying and seem some of his figures in the McFarlane stuff. I also played a demo of Jericho on the PS3, which was pretty much crap. Undying was pretty cool, but the rest of his work gives me this impression of him: Clive Barker: Hmm.. now what I can...

Kinda like an apple or orange, except you're also eating the seed when you eat an egg.

That's not really an interview. It's just fan mail with the name of a website or whatever behind it. Otherwise they wouldn't give em the time of day. Edit: And a lot of times they just take questions from the community (usually in a thread asking them what they'd like to ask so-and-so) and...

At first I thought you were making a comment on his avatar, and then I recalled the great difficulty in making a face for a character in The Sims (2 and 3) and Oblivion & Fallout 3. The Sims 2 had the easiest face maker (using the toolset outside of the game that is), because you could use...

So basically his advertising campaign pokes fun at something he knows nothing about.. Next thing you know, he'll be saying that he invented the JRPG.

@Eternal: If you're going to reply to someone, then shouldn't you do so on the forum that their post originally took place on? I hadn't really understood NMA's stance on this, and why they call it "cross-site trolling" until now. Now I understand that it's kinda like taking a debate from...

Aren't they all email interviews? That's what I usually assume anyway...

Maybe $70 isn't so bad. That would be like paying $40 for Morrowind, and $15 each for Oblivion and Fallout 3.... :wink:

I kinda lost track of what this thread's about a few pages ago, but skimming through the posts on this last page made me want to make a couple of comments. First, I seen someone comment on turn based MMOs. There's one called Dofus. It reminds me more of Final Fantasy Tactics than it does...

Maybe someday someone will actually think of making something really cool, like The Sims + Dungeons & Dragons, combining life management & farming and such with turn based combat. But big game developer studios suck. The only way I'll ever see a game like that is if the character is 2 pixels...

Eh? Fallout 3's VATS would be about the only FPS game example I've played where that's the case, but I get what you're saying. As for your Liberty Prime comment.. yeah, it's funny that Bethesda even allowed some of these comments. It's kinda like if Homer were to get someone to help him make...

Fallout 3 GOTY edition really should be $20 by now.

Re: Fallout: New Vegas "Mocking JRPGs" Advertiseme I never mentioned Fallout 3 and/or VATS. I was talking about JRPGS. But hey, let's just lump it all together, shall we? It's all targeted, and every every click is you telling your character what to do, rather than you doing it in real time...

There's also the issue in FFXII where "Hey, you get this cool loot later on in the game if you thought to check this walkthrough earlier, but only if you didn't get the first 12 treasure chests in the game... Oh.. you got them? Sucks to be you!" It's nice to see that someone enjoyed FFXII. I...

Yeah I was kinda surprised that he mentioned Morrowind rather than Oblivion. But anyways.. I hated the "program your buddies" system in Final Fantasy XII. It's ludicrous. You basically end up running around and you don't do anything at all.. When you control more than one character, it should...

Re: Fallout: New Vegas "Mocking JRPGs" Advertiseme Technically speaking, that's the same mechanic in Fallout 1 and 2. The only difference is you can use your turn to decide where to move, rather than using the entire turn to attack one enemy. So, in a way, they're taking pot shots at the...

Ah, the motion sickness. Yeah I've gotten that with a few games. I almost always get a headache from playing a new game too much right away (Starcraft 2 being the most recent). I find that it helps if I slowly acclimate myself to it, playing about an hour a day at first. I also get kinda...

Concerning older people who can't play FP games, my mom has played through Morrowind several times, and she's over 60. I never finished it myself, but she's finished it several times. She didn't like either Oblivion or Fallout 3 though, but it was because she didn't like the gameplay itself...
