There’s oversupply and wastefulness anyway. People can do with less.

I wonder how things could work with "fish farms" at coastal areas and artificial oceanfloor-simulation pools inland.

Agreed. Coffee is the nectar from the heart of the universe only the enlightened can taste the potential of, so obviously the lesser beings would berate it. No strong opinions.

It's not about defending anything. It's about giving all players fair grounds for their choices. Because if you are giving the the players a choice like that, you better make it fun for them, and by all means not judge them for it or put them through some premeditated guilt trip. Every coin has...

It doesn’t matter what they are or what they can be compared to. If you are giving the player the choice, you shouldn’t demonize the options to imply the player might be ”wrong” with his.

He's not neutral. Neither is NCR. That's not the point. The point is that the game should be neutral about the players choice, be informative about that choice from an unjudgemental perspective, and support that choice. And if the parties involved are multifaceted and not "heaven vs hell" type...

Politics speaks to people. But the politics the game has, shouldn't be coloured with an attitude. It should observe the politics it handles from a neutral point of view (covering all the bases, even the possibly offensive ones) and let the player draw his own conclusions: supportive...

They are. They don't tend to evolve - neither as settings or inside their fiction. Nor does one tend to offer anything over another one. And if it does, it's extremely rare and tends to still be generic. Torment games are a notable exception (settingwise). One would think the point of "fantasy"...

I was ready to give up already in 2013, but the 2014 "renaissance" caught me off guard and sparked some new itnerest. Now, though... There doesn't seem to be anything in horizon that would actually feel interesting to try out. ISO/TB games and some narrative branching abound, yeah, sure, but...

I don't know why, but I haven't played anything in about a year. It used to be one of my favorite pastimes to argue about RPG's, and there are a number of games that should be right up my alley, but I've no interest in anything anymore. I've had pretty steep desires for an ideal RPG (that I...

First person shooter. As far as combat goes, New Vegas (just as Fallout 3) doesn’t offer all that different experience from Serious Sam (except less fun as an FPS). And the game is full of combat. It can mean many things, really. There’s no one simple explanation. From VATS having been...

First person perspective done in a certain way might work, but being an FPS is just plain wrong for the series.

Don't like them. Don't like their looks. Don't like their gameplay. Don't their often over the top dramatization. Don't like them, don't play them. don't

I don't really mind the perspective as such, 1st, 3rd, what ever, but it kinda aches what kind of gameplay it demands today.

In any number of ways. The wasteland was ripe with new stories to tell that did not have to forcibly latch on to the elements of the original two other than the background lore and the central theme. BoS, SM’s, Enclave, ghouls, deathclaws... they could’ve been fables in the new land told by...

Bethesda's idea of "scavenging" is that a big bag of shit opened up in the sky and littered its contents all over the landscape for the player to pick up, anyway.

"It looks like a shooter so it has to work like a shooter." Yeah, that's how these games always go down. As shooters with just a bit of RPG dribbled on top. As far as combat goes. Too bad, as otherwise everything looks mostly fine.

It doesn’t really matter in the end ”who” made the game. If it was someone other than Bethesda, they’d be getting the shit thrown at them (or praise if the games were any good, as Bethesda would). But it just so happens, that it is indeed Bethesda who is the author of 3 sorry excuses of a...

It was a common complaint that the game was linear because of that southward U-turn, because it wasn't eeeeeeezy to go other routes (while the game was really easy even in harder difficulties). It was a stupid complaint and claim. Understandable, if one wasn't good at the game, but stupid in a...

I wish there had been one.
