[QUOTE=Potaji;47655791][B]All of them[/B] No, really, I need to explain. In my history class, we're currently doing about extremists and we got an assignment on their beliefs, how they influenced the people around them and modern day extremists. Blah blah. One of the questions was about why the influence of extremists nowadays is similar / different to that of groups in the past ( e.g. Nazis ). I was like "k so 50 page essay" but initiative apparently had to be part of it. My idea? How do normal people react to the extreme views nowadays? That's where Facepunch comes in. I planned on spreading it out over a week but the deadline got moved forward. Thanks for not being too sarcastic. I might have failed. I don't believe slow talkers, slow walkers etc should fed to lions, like christ almighty. Sure they're a little pet peeve of mine but I wouldn't wish death upon people. Sorry for putting you through that awful performance. This is why I never went into performing arts. Edit : In case you're wondering why it was something stupid like slow people, I planned on doing it about Nazism but I thought people would see right through it. Instead, I just came up with a really exaggerated and extreme view.[/QUOTE] I can smell you backpedaling so hard from across the Atlantic Ocean that it's not even funny.
I think it'd be interesting if somebody made a movie or TV miniseries that was written as if the Hays Code is still in effect.
Although Raven Software created Hexen and Heretic, I do not trust them with those IPs given their current predicament.

I don't like Euro Truck Simulator 2. I don't like the way it plays. I guess if I want a drive-around-a-lot game I'll go play a GTA or whatever. Euro Truck feels clunky and it's too easy to get stuck and not be able to get out of it with a long load.
people who say they dress nicely or make themselves look nice for ONLY themselves are fucking liers
I like product placement in games, like on billboards where you would normally have fake ads. It kinda makes the place feel closer.

[QUOTE=TheFilmSlacker;47659416]GTA III > Vice City[/QUOTE] Yeah, but VC has what I would consider the best Radio station in GTA history (though V comes really closed with a lot of its Radio Stations, there's at least 1 song on each station I enjoy listening to. There's not a dud in V tbh). And that station would be V-Rock: Slayer, Anthrax, Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Twisted Sister, Motley Crue, Quiet Riot, Ozzy, Judas Priest and more. It's just so great, at least for me.
[QUOTE=Talvy;47659543]I like product placement in games, like on billboards where you would normally have fake ads.

But stuff like Yakuza, where there are hundreds of instances of product placement in sensible places, it makes the world a lot more realistic. To me at least, there's a line that needs to be crossed for it to feel less like a cash grab and more like a deliberate attempt at world building.
I like the billboards in GTA V that make fun of actual products and stuff

skittles are not good, they leave one of the worst tastes in my mouth that can only be drowned out by like peppermint or strong flavors (that chemical crap taste you get after you drink water and eat a real bad sweet)
Hershey's milk chocolate is probably the worst brand of chocolate out there. It starts off really nice but then it gets super bitter and you can only smother the taste by chugging down a glass of milk.
Pepsi > Coke
Sprite > Every soft drink except maybe Dr. Pepper
[QUOTE=doomevil;47662177]Sprite > Every soft drink except maybe Dr. Pepper[/QUOTE] Sprite is good but Dr pepper is really bad
[QUOTE=EuSKalduna;47662317]Sprite is good but Dr pepper is really bad[/QUOTE] Sprite tastes like sugar water, probably the only soda that actually tastes genuinely bad I think
I prefer mountain dew to most other sodas, though coke comes a close second.
The Lime Coke you can get at the Freestyle machines where you can customize your drink with added flavors is my favorite, and I really wish they would bottle that shit. You can get Diet versions of it, but it's just not the same. I think Diet Coke tastes like total ass.
Mountain Dew Code Red is pretty nice Coke Vanilla as well
Welch's grape soda is the fucking shit, I just wish somewhere near me would start stocking it again.
Mountain Dew is too much for me. I don't know if it's too sweet or what but it's overboard for me.
[QUOTE=Cuon Alpinus;47662166]Pepsi > Coke[/QUOTE] I can't drink Pepsi. It's way too carbonated for my tastes.
I hate Japan RPGs with a passion Come to think of it, my general opinion on Japanese fictions and games recived a serious blow one or two years ago circa and never recovered
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;47660950]Imo vice city is literally the best gta game[/QUOTE] For me Vice City is probably the best one, but the most impactful was GTA III. The top camera to 3rd person view is a great achievement for the series.

I'm not a fan of grinding seen in many JRPGs and a few other common traits but it's not the best to generalise genres, I like to view each new game without my experience with genre tropes affecting my opinion on it.
Tea is really gross and I can't stand it. Coffee is where it's at, man.

I'm not a fan of grinding seen in many JRPGs and a few other common traits but it's not the best to generalise genres, I like to view each new game without my experience with genre tropes affecting my opinion on it.[/QUOTE] Simply put, with time I started to dislike most of the common design choices in Japanese RPGs. To name some: - The turn based battle system (I'm calling personal preference on this one: while I think it's a system with its own dignity, I find it annoying, dragging even the common battles longer and longer still and being generally unrealistic. Unless I'm playing an RPG with my friends on a table, I stick to action RPGs. This is so bad that I utterly refuse to play Final Fantasy VII even if the game is such I'm willing to ignore the other points of this list) - The pretty much forced level grinding, one way or another (there are often points in the game where it becomes apparent you need to rank up several levels first, and if you even want to have a chance against the secret bosses, you may as well max out your characters) - The intrusiveness of mini-games (I'm playing a fucking RPG, I don't give a single fuck about some little games I could as well play on my browser. This isn't helped by most JRPGs mini-games being presented as completely optional, but in truth granting you significant rewards which often are the only way get the best gear available or useful items for the endgame) - The general lenght of the main game (usually I clock a western RPG around the 20-30 hours mark. JRPG are known to last for 40-50 hours, and even longer if you decide to go completitionist) - Nearly all the artistic design tropes in such games (when I was younger I found the spiky, rainbow hair of most characters and the feeling the humans were all look alike amusing, akin to a funny quirp. Now I only find it annoying, overdone, silly. Same goes for the usual locations these games feature and the enemy department. It's my opinion that western RPGs are more varied and unique when it comes to the design of everything) The only JRPGs I play at the moment are the Kingdom Hearts series and Bloodborne, because both of them defile some of the design choices I mentioned above and have unique gameplay or story gimmicks to them
