Well, uh, there was still the whole Hebrew slavery thing going on, so uh, that kinda sucked I guess.

Or at least a pyrrhic victory. That'd be something.
The overwhelming majority of stories in video games are absolute garbage. I could probably have a Top 10 or Top 25 list of best stories in video games and there wouldn't be much to leave off.
I know that gameplay can compensate for some of that, but i kinda want more well told stories.

There is no evidence that this actually happened. Sure there was slavery in Ancient Egypt so there were probably some Hebrews among them but that's about it. The Exodus isn't a real story.

Is this even an unpopular opinion? I find that pretty much everyone thinks most game stories are utter shite.

Given many game devs brag about their game being ~cinematic~ or ~story driven~ it's legitimate to wonder whether people buy into it.

I think the fact that a lot of people only give a shit about gameplay plays a part into it too.
Rome 2's music was fucking amazing.

It had the best soundtrack in the series IMO and its one of the few soundtracks I'm willing to listen to outside of a game.
I think people are generally being a bit too cynical about this year's E3. It wasn't amazing, but it wasn't horrible.
[QUOTE=The golden;50542121]As I get older my desire to play and enjoy games has certainly diminished, but only slightly. On the other hand though, my desire to actually talk about games, including ones I play and enjoy, has hit absolute rock bottom. I cannot stand talking about games anymore. I have no idea why. I don't even like talking about the games I play with other people who play them. I just have zero interest in it and I can't even find the will to show interest. I would rather just play and enjoy it quietly by myself.[/QUOTE]
It called getting older. It happens.
Trump if elected would solve global warming. How?
The last time greenhouse gasses dropped significantly was when the soviet union collapsed. If Trump as big a diaster as many think he would be, he would lead to the collapse of the modern world, thus saving the planet.
[QUOTE=bdd458;50538349]Not every game needs to give you choice for your character's apperance/gender.[/QUOTE]
If you have an established character in mind that isn't meant to be directly a player avatar, then a rigid design is better for story telling. A lot of video game protaganists are generic garbage that customisation can't possibly hurt, though

this year's e3 was the least worst e3 in ages.
in fact there was at least one great moment for every conference, and in nintendo's case their only moment was great :v:

This E3 was a bit lackluster but it wasn't fucking awful like previous E3s.
If I remember correctly, E3 2014 was the cringiest

I am not a candy person at all. I think most candy is at most OK and the only candy I give a toot about is chocolate, which I'm fine with eating only a few times a year. My only weakness as far as sweets go is soda, to which I'm totally addicted.
I dislike any flavor of potato chips that isn't the Original flavor
konami 'won' e3 2010 tbh. that conference was so surreal i regretted blinking as much as i did.

Are you trying to quit? Try sugar water. Maybe that help you cut down. That what I did.

I don't think I've tried sugar water (unless that's what sparkling ice is? because that was my jam) but I tried carbonated water and it was fucking the worst
People complaining about Mass Effect 3's ending put me to sleep. The end is bad, I get it. Move on

I wouldn't participate in any post ME3 Mass Effect discussion ever then. It has and probably always will be the elephant in the room when it comes to discussion of the story of Mass Effect as a series.

Get a water purifier, get sugar cubes and get an empty glass and opaque colored soda bottle.
Fill bottle with non-carbonated purified water. Put a few sugar cubes in it. Put filled bottle in fridge. Now whenever you need to drink soda, drink that instead.
When I drink it, it tricks my brain thinking it is soda. Seeing most pop is mainly sugar and water, it not difficult to understand why. Maybe healthier for you since it does not have the other chemicals in it.

Sometimes I think people dislike the ending but they over react just because hating Mass Effect's ending became something big and cool
Sometimes you don't love a band because of their good collection of songs, but just because you heard the right song first.

That's pretty deep. To put jelly on a god, an attractive one at that, is to truly accept the depth of your life's choices.
That's pretty admirable.
