Tarantino is just a director who is very good at making a self-aware, pulpy, comic-inspired movie where everything is larger than life. He's kind of what happens when a more independent director sticks with his vision through success, but is never quite groundbreaking or experimental enough to...

There's also the weird killing method in Bioshock. Like asides from Jack likely being traumatised and potentially thinking it'd be better to put them out of their misery (frankly I don't buy the 'miracle cure' plasmid as it screams of a plot element 'ported in from The Convenience Dimension), he...

Where is your avatar from, out of interest?

FarCry 3's main problem on that front was that they made the antagonists TOTALLY unsympathetic and pushed it so hard that the white saviour trope was believable. If they had pushed the 'man, look at these rich fucks' a little harder, emphasised the totally unrealistic nature of Jason's abilities...

This, imo, is key to it. While I'm not trying to say stuff like Breaking Bad or Spec Ops: The Line are game-changers, highly original etc but the big appeal in the moral devolution is always a series of small bad decisions and big mistakes that eventually meet each other half way, where the...

Yeah, the interviewer noted that lack of information, too. The comparison and discussion over placement of pop-culture references is interesting. A more subtle approach may work well, perhaps in the way you sometimes see amusing descriptions with the Look function, or the propped dinosaurs and...

and don't forget, get this folks... HOUSE FOR DOG! MAKE HOUSE FOR DOG!

I'd say that, among more dedicated gamers and younger kids with Steam and not much money, small and artsy independent puzzlers are getting bigger. The number of them on Steam (and itch.io, gamejolt, etc) that are both aesthetically pleasing, worth playing, deceptively simple and easy to make in...

Remember kids: you can rebalance blowing up a small town or killing a pregnant lady by also killing a bunch of raiders! Good game design!

tfw games like Fahrenheit /could/ work but fuckos like David Cage can't write a decent story and/or more effectively and immersively incorporate 'movement-based interaction' (sorry I can't think of a decent way to describe that 'move the analog stick in a way that resembles opening a door'-style...

4.5/10. Nice instrumentals but the progressions themselves are a little too predictable, and the vocals sound very restrained and 'over-polished'. I saw Sunn O))) last night so I should probably post them, but this is what I listened to on the way there. Their first album sadly isn't on the...

I'd love to do something like this, but because I know all of the dialogue options, who to talk to, where to go and when, etc, I feel a key part of that 'one shot' style of playing is lost. Feels like those things work best hand in hand. I very vaguely recall the people behind MGS saying they...

9/10 for crass fun giggles, 2/10 for musicality + 2 points for the cute little b5 thing in the verses, so ~6/10.

Oh god one day people are going to speak of games like F3 in the same way as we speak of the original Thief and Fallouts

Well you don't need to hold right to that original canon, and you could easily do some 'fixing' as per your OP to actually make the vault's placement in keeping with the experiment. Just use your creativity, think it through, and don't pander for the sake of pandering.

I know, but if you're gounna do the whole comic thing, that's what comes to mind as a problem.

Question: doing a little armchair research, Mt. St. Helens is a stratovolcano; a volcano formed by multiple layers of cooled lava that have resulted from frequent and/or periodic eruptions. St. Helens involved a series of minor eruptions, landslides, and earthquakes to cause a huge build up and...

I read the plot to the new F4 when I found out it was getting universally panned and my first thought was that there is no way Doom would ever lose in that way. Like there's no such thing as a random encounter with Doom because he plans for everything that isn't falling to appeals to his ego...
