  1. After a lot of thinking, I've decided that I'm going to go down my Cousin's path and go into video game development.

     

    However, what my cousin wants to do is to program games about sports and racing.

     

    What I want to do; Use the game to tell a story that questions morality, society, and the condition of the human soul, as well as try to characterize the MC based on the methods that the player uses to achieve a goal. Also, It has to be Sci-fi/Fantasy and possibly anime-esque. I'd also use Hack-and-Slash, RPG, and stealth-action to create my games.

     

    I feel that I am more ambitious with my project, but then again, who is going to give me any creative control if I end up working at a studio?

     

  2. I just hope that this Version brings us the conclusion of the GDC arc. Obviously the game will be unfinished, but some closure would leave me satisfied until we get to V11. It's not going to be a month away. Maybe two weeks, but not a full month. I may have just jinxed it.
  3. Mother 3 is a better game than Undertale by a long shot.

      Sort of like the Undertale Fandom has ruined my view of Undertale forever? Like Five Nights at Freddy's, and Doki Doki Literature club?

      not really, fandoms rarely bother me. Like, I was never bothered by the Undertale fandom, so I have little against them. I like that game but that's where it ends. as with Fnaf and DDLC, I'm not playing them generally because I'm no fan of Horror. Be it games, books or movies.

       

      But those players only know one input for the most part. and having to fight a PK Fire Spam with Ike is not exactly fun. and then I wonder how those got into smash while Simon Belmont would have been a more interesting character...

      Well, The games are amazing, though. Earthbound edges out in gameplay, but Mother 3 is beautiful in terms of story. I put it up their with Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers, Metal Gear Solid 1, Shadow of the Colossus, and Nier: Automata as some of the most emotional story based games ever created.

       

       

      You really should try the games out. Don't something as trivial as being annoying in smash bros influence your view of a game you haven't played.

  4. If the PS5 is Backwards Compatible with the PS4, than I might just forgive Sony for Ghostbusters 2016 and the Amazing Spiderman 2.

     

     

    I don't actually own a Playstation 4, so whenever I want to play something like Nier Automata or Overwatch, I have to walk a full mile to my friends house. It becomes tiring. 

     

     

    I've resolved that since we are past the halfway point of this generation, I'm going to wait until the next generation of consoles is out.

     

     

    In either case, the PS5 might allow for streaming of old PS4 titles via PSN. However, Backwards compatibility would allow me to pull a cheap used copy off of Amazon. 

     

    Remember how I said that Metroid Prime 4 and The Pokemon RPG for switch were the only reasons I was watching E3 2018? No? Well, I'm also looking for news of a possible PS5.

      I think 2019 would be about the time. Or 2020. I've heard some news. None of it reliable, but still news. It's mostly just Speculation.

      Yeah, they've usually had about a 6 year gap in between - damn, I can't believe that the PS4 came out that long ago.

      Wait for E3 2018. Maybe we will get some news. If nnot E3 2018, than E3 2019. The presentation of the PS5 might go hilariously wrong, but I really don't care.

       

       

      People either watch E3 for new games and consoles, or for just how awkward the presentations are.

  5. I don't know. But If the MC was allowed to speak in these games, I would tell him to stay far away from the mansion, and to not tell anyone about it, because the police force would be annihilated if they tried to take the place down.
  6. The Secret is finished, but we have no idea what it is.... But, on the bright side, Beta Testing is almost done. Just another week. Or possibly longer.
  7. Nier Automata is my personal Game of the Year 2017. I just love the story too much. 

     

     

    Breath of the Wild is good, too, but the low quality voice acting and flawed weapon durability system set it back.

      I haven't even played  a single Drakengard game. Or the original Nier.

      In comparison with Elder Scrolls, I feel as if Daggerfall, Morrowind, Oblivion, and Skyrim were better games than Breath of the Wild.

  8. Metal Gear Survive is literally just MGS5, but with terrible combat mechanics, terrible survival mechanics, and Microtransactions.

     

    To it's credit, the graphics are good. That's literally it. 

     

     

    Don't buy this game. Just go get MGS5. It's far better, even if you don't necessarily like the story.

  9. What is Ulfric Stormcloak's favorite outdoor activity?

     

     

     

    Hiking.

     

     

     

    I'm so sorry.

      Really? I thought Yodeling. Granted last time he practiced that one a King died...

  10. No double posting, please? Also, Patience. No need to pressure the Devs and get a rushed product.
  11. Angie did nothing wrong. Are we even sure that Anju and Angie are the same person? They could just be blood relations.
  12. Part of me thinks this scene is perfect, and part of me wants to hear Vader say the ridiculous Bond one liners that he said in the Novelization.

    The resemblance is deceptive.

    I am your reward. You don't find me handsome?

    You fought a war to destroy the Jedi. Congratulations on your success.

    You can't! Lord Sidious promised we'd be left in peace. 
    VADER

    The transmission was garbled. He promised you'd be left in pieces.

     

    The scene totally wouldn't work, but It would be hilarious. Someone should edit this.

     

     

    To me, this should have been the last Star Wars movie. We didn't need this new trilogy. As reviled as the prequels were, I'd say that they contributed to the Story, and I enjoyed them. So there is that.

      As a fan of the Original 6 Star Wars films, and the EU, I recognize that I have no control over the direction that the franchise is going. Even if it hurts to see it turn into a bunch of lazy cash-ins, I guess I'll just have to deal with it.

  13. I don't know. However, Final Fantasy Music playing while you fight Crescent Grunts make Grunt fights more epic than they should be. Also, Battle - Rogue Fox? From the Guitar beat, I'd say it was LittleVmills, but i am not so sure. It feels as If I've heard it before.
  14. Your video game can have the best graphics in the world. But If the Game is not fun to play, then the game is worthless.

     

     

    Unless the Story and cinematics are amazing, in which case you save your money and watch all the cutscenes on YouTube. In fact, Bad gameplay actually hurts the Story of a game.

    1. Commander

      Actually, I disagree on Youtubing a games story instead of playing it. Sometimes you can find those games for like $2 (Xenosaga II) which being in control does make a difference. Trails in the Sky is another game with pretty poor gameplay, but it worth playing for all the little things in the world. Games are made up of worlds which can be explored...most of the time which you miss out on Youtubing it for cutscenes.

    2. Burning Bright

      I mean yeah, you get to experience the world and influence cutscenes, but ultimately there aren't a whole lot of games like that. Also, we all have a finite amount of time, I'm not wasting it playing a game with good cutscenes and bad gameplay over a game with good cutscenes and good gameplay. 

  15. I don't think we will move from GDC. This was mainly supposed to be a small update meant to finish the GDC Map, Story arc, and Sidequests, as well as adding the Achievements feature to the game.
  16. An extremely polarizing plot that received acclaim from critics and a mixed reception from fans, with an annoying character named Rose accompanying our main character?

     

     

     

    Star Wars: Episode VIII, The Last Jedi is the bad reincarnation of Metal Gear Solid 2: Sons of Liberty. 

     

     

     

  17. Well, I mean, It took one week to get to 55%. But I have never Beta Tested a game in my life, so I'm not the authority on this subject.
  18. So, any updates on Beta testing? We are nearing the release of the game. I can feel it in the wind.
