Various video game stuff not deserving its own thread

[maidenhaver]

Another SKALD dev update, and still no mention of a release date. Do indie devs count in the "inability of developers to make games" thread?

No, indie devs aren't real devs in the first place, so their inability to make a game is normal and expected and actually successfully making a game is thus a feat worthy of note.

I'd be as shocked to see a finished AAA deliver on time and on their promises. An indie dev is a hobbyist who collects a gov check, so they don't have any incentive to deliver on time. Both kinds of devs have **** you money, the latter just can't spend it all at once.

Caesar is a cryptojew (New Vegas)

[Emphyrio]

The main plot of New Vegas is pointless because the good guy would have won the battle of hoover dam anyway (Lannius)

The man just buried rpgs alive and ****** on their grave.

QRD: Console devs don't know how to make games.

A remake is unnecessary and nobody who actually enjoys the original asked for this.

The combat in the kotor games is horrid. Would gladly pay for a port to the dragon age origins/2 engine.

I actually liked the combat in kotor and would take it over something like Baldur's Gate 1/2.

I feel slandered for suggesting I do not like non-whites. This is a melting pot of friendship, we have my negro friend @Roguey and plenty of South American injuns.

Underrated gem

sony porting their games to pc just proved how overrated their **** games are and console fanboys will slurp up anything labeled 'excloooosive'

QTEs are good btw
if you disagree it's because a game journo brainwashed you in the early 2010s

I bought that game awhile back, is it any good? I haven't really played it.

Anyone who releases a game that makes **** kvetch gets my support.

The only time I've ever enjoyed QTEs is in Shenmue 1, probably because they were novel and they fit that specific style of game (interactive movie).

I think Lords of Shadow had them too, and that game is excellent, but it's excellent in spite of them.

if you don't like QTEs you don't like video games and just want to read a visual novel, simple as
