"evil empire" where everyone is ruled equally and fairly invades the "free lands" where men aren't even allowed to own...

I don't get it. This whole game is virtue signalling about something but i can't figure out what they are trying to tell shitlords like me.
Feels like it's trying to piss off feminists but this is nu-Obsidian so this can't be right.
Are they trying some bait and switch 4d-chess to teach me that sexism is bad by making some characters sexist to men?

Could simply be playing to the new fantasy audience (I.e.: Tumblr). The fact that the default character is a black woman also suggests this.

Maybe OP, just maybe, the writers are all retarded fucking hacks who can't write their way out of a paper bag?

All the genres that defined PC gaming suck now. At least there's dorf fort.

Obsidian is staffed by talentless hacks that lack any shred of self-awareness. It should come as no surprise that their narratives lack internal consistency.

...

The same can be said for Bioware, especially with the shit we're seeing for Andromeda.

Why would they assume that anyone wants to play as a negress?

Both hire from tumblr so that's to be expected.

Do they really hire from tumblr? Wow, that's a fucking low bar.

The game is red pilled? Thanks op, I will buy it in steam, it has a good discount.

Who would have fucking guessed? Don't get me wrong, they're both terrible, but SFV has capcom and fgc toruneyfags behind it

Don't buy this shit.

When did liberals ever do anything because it makes sense? Why give a shit 99% of your players are white men when you can virtue signal?


I was joking, but if you read the writing they shit out, all the purple prose and "quirky" characters it simply reeks of fat, white cunts that spend most of their waking hours masturbating on tumblr.


About as red pilled as pic related, and by that I mean leftists are retarded.

remember those sketches of the WoW map that looked like a vagina and the isle of evil was shaped like a dick?

can someone repost all that?

I can't really believe that was an accident.
I'm more inclined to believe that Chris Avellone wrote the general setting before he left as a final fuck you and the writers just filled in the blanks with their own retardation later.


It was barely worth the pirate user.

I sincerely doubt they'd have used anything Avellone wrote after they basically chased him out for whatever reason. And they likely haven't kicked just him out either, since from what I gather all the lead writers of New Vegas are gone from Obsidian.

Not that Avellone isn't a pretentious cunt, but still.

The only way it wouldn't be an accident, hitler trips user, is if someone was trying to fuck with the rest of the writers by making the good guys turn out to be worse than the villains. However, this exists, so it seems like they are just clinically retarded and have no capacity for self reflection.

Pretty sure only Josh Sawyer is the only person of note involved in NV left at Obsidian. And he's only good at game design, which he then often turns to shit in his autistic attempts to "balance".

I think his real goal is to suck the fun out of gameplay for whatever insane reason. I'll say this, and I can't believe I'm saying it, but I'm glad New Vegas plays like a tweaked FO3, God knows what Sawyer would have shit out if he had full control of the Fallout IP.

You ever see his autistic "hardcore" mod for NV? I imagine like that

Maybe user, the native fucking savages have no idea what they are talking about?
Maybe the idea of being a part of something larger than their country and gaining a better lifestyle isn't so pleasing to them, and they prefer to have their freedom to make decisions?
Maybe the game doesn't have a message about gender, considering that the ruler was deliberately made of an unknown gender and it is a running joke?

Maybe Obsidian writers are shit?

It's a real tragedy Tyranny is the shitpile it is, because forcing the modern gamer to play as the agent of, say, fantasy Roman empire, tasked with pacifying conquered territories, and all that such a job would entail, would be pretty fun.

Imagine having to play as the underling of an empire that enslaves populations, enforces strict gender roles, oppresses foreign religions (not that the Romans did this most of the time, but we're playing the "evil" guys) and are all around bronze/iron age people with the mentality of that era.

Imagine playing such a game where your choices were either to play it by the book, oppose the empire (either directly or through subterfuge) and engage in politicking, scheming et al. Hell, just rip that old 2000AD comic with the mysterious armies that don't know where they come from, or where they're going, that are just conquering everything in their path.

Anything would be more interesting that the bland piece of shit Tyranny turned out to be.

But muh cuckold developers

What freedom though? Not only are we talking mediveval feudalism here so the average peasant just takes orders from some remote asshole anyway, the game actually makes a point of telling you that most rulers pre-invasion were either incompetent or absent.
They were constantly at war with each other except for the times were they were starving or tried to stave off demons.


Is that why the game already starts in the fucking character creation talking about the matriarchies in the south and never stops talking about gender throughout the game?

I also love how the game keeps telling you you're playing for the bad guys, yet said bad guys are the best alternative out of everything on offer.

Great job creating deep moral choices Obsidian. Hell, even if they were capable of doing that I still wouldn't give a shit because none of the characters or factions are likeable, and the story is such a boring piece of shit I didn't care what happened.

...

PORN
WHEN?

They probably have metrics showing that 90+% of players make either a white and/or male character but making the default black and female might get them a nice writeup on Kotaku or Polygon and get a bunch of sales with the kind of ultra retards for whom that's a key selling point who probably won't play the game more than half an hour anyway.

Senior writer wrote the backstory and the general idea but college interns with art degrees wrote the specifics. That's the simplest explanation I can come up with.

they got the reddit paradox audience though

The character you see in char gen is randomized. You might be biased against blacks, user-kun.

GODDAMNIT FUCK EVERYTHING I'll just reread more of the fucking Cosmere

...

I assume someone actually tried to be clever and thought they could make fucking white males emphasize with wymyn struggle by switching the roles in this game.
Because if you think a bronze age dystopian kingdom where a male is literally forbidden to own a fucking house is bad you obviously should also care about manspreading and muh wage gap.

But I don't understand. Are you saying you don't agree with Red Skull?

Oy vey, this shit thread again!

I think he is using an example of how out of touch they are that that was mean to be villainous.

He's saying that that that was was supposed to be Red Skull's big villain speech.

I dont understand this meme. In my country every "gender" have a same wage. Is that issue in Burgerland? For what reason wage gap exist?

which game are you talking about?

It doesn't exist, it's made up by women who work 6 hours a week as a secretary who complain they don't make as much as a miner who works 80 hours a week.

The "wage gap" is a trick of statistics, if you average out the pay of all women in all jobs and all men in all jobs the women's average is lower but if you look at the same types of jobs in the same places men and women make the same hourly pay. The difference comes from men working more high-pay high-risk jobs like on oil rigs and shit and working more hours overall.

But I could find anyone on Holla Forums willing to say the same stuff.

It has been disproved since the 80's but stupid bitches with no real problems want to make themselves appear like they are the most oppressed group in existence despite everything pointing to the fact that they're not

Also, as someone who has to work with women who were diversity hired into a manual labor job, they spend way too much time gossiping instead of working (you have to constantly supervise them or else they start chatting) and they always get to leave 4 hours earlier than everyone else. They also get all the simplest jobs.

No the audience they appeal to don't play those types of games. Mobile games and games like tetris is where all the women are, and not evne the really complicated stuff either just simple games to waste time.

He's referring to the Mistborn books by Brandon Sanderson. They're part of a fuckhueg fantasy universe called the Cosmere where pieces of a dead god land on various planets and fuck things up.

Thanks now i understand. I work as Professional Cook with 12 woman who halftime smoke outside or chating but atleast do work rights and newer rest on dinner. I'm in hell. Help me


Or puzzle quests.

With BioWare about to close we need to find the new leftist lolcow of the cRPG genre. Thankfully Obsidian saw fit to oblige.

I don't know man, I've seen a little too much Andromeda hype.

I don't suppose you have some compelling evidence to back up that assertion?

Yes, EA thrust this one onto a new team. Yes, Andromeda's development has been a shitshow. But it will in all likelihood sell well, based on brand recognition and the near-incestuous relationship EA has with big game media outlets.

You're really misunderstanding. The writers, who are cucked liberals or kikes think that what Skull says is evil and racist. It's actually common fucking sense.

That's weird. I haven't seen any, apart from the usual people who buy everything Bioware shits out.

Yes brother, and the crash to end all crashes is coming to make everything better.

kek

Basically, EA is taking all the hollow husks of developers they sucked dry and cobbling them together into a new studio.

Inquisition didn't sell well, I see no reason why Andromeda would either.

Yeah, everyone remembers the brand after ME3, just not for the reasons EA would want them to.

Tell me more of this fightan qt.

You gotta remember that not everyone hated ME3 enough to drop the property and see Bioware for the shitty writers they are. People still cling to a dim hope Andromeda will make things okay again, and then there's those who liked the ending, then there's those who just want space games and mediocre third person shooters.

I enjoyed my play through of Tyranny. I went with a mage and killed the two Archons. It was worth the pirate, but for all the hype about playing an "evil" campaign I was a little disappointed. Tunon and the Fatebinders bring law and order, and the reckless destruction of civilian resources is discouraged by the fact that the people will need to pay taxes. The ending and the third act in general felt a bit rushed. The in-game hype did a lot to sell the strength of the archons, so dealing with them in such rapid succession felt anti-climatic. Issuing the final edict against the approaching army at the end of the game didn't help.

So we have another game that needed more time in development and more end-game polish.

But it's the Publisher's fault for always forcing impossible deadlines on them! in two cases

A game needing more development doesn't necessarily have to be the fault of the publisher. Developer sometimes squander time and resources; they may have gotten close to the finish line and started slacking off or simply not known how to proceed. It certainly is more convenient to blame the publisher, though.

There's no wage gap between genders as it's outlawed in the US.

There's an income gap for sure, but the issues behind that study is that SJWs meme that companies intentionally discriminate, which wouldn't make sense as companies would be more inclined to employ women since they take advantage of outsourcing.

The study doesn't account for the amount of women within the field (ie. One reason why women would make less income than men is because there less women in that field), the amount of hours that men and women worked (ie. One reason they may make less is because of maternity leave), and the different positions within that field (ie. A janitor or entry level programmer in a tech firm will make less than a senior staff member).

For fucks sake Holla Forums, if it's shit can we at least talk about why it's shit and just shitpost?

And women aren't as aggressive as men in asking for raises.

Holla Forums is just Holla Forums, /cuteboys/, and Holla Forums with a slant toward the video game industry as opposed to the world.

I keep thinking it's a typo and it's supposed to be Tranny instead

I thought this place would improve after the polls. I was wrong. My oh my. I guess I'll fuck off back to half chan's /vg/, at least those cunts attempt to talk about vidya.

Three, actually
Alpha Protocol, KOTOR2, New Vegas

I dunno that it's really the same scenario though. It feels like Obsidian's been bleeding talent. Pillars was stale as fuck. I've been trying to give it a fairer chance this time and it's still not really gripping me. Combat is either a snoozefest or watching my party get wiped hard, story is alright but there's no good hook and the characters barely talk outside of Bioware-tier random interactions. Angry Priest is still the best character and souls-as-mental-health is a little too ham-fisted.

Maybe inXile can step it up? Torment has to come out eventually


How does the combat compare to Pillars?

You missed one thing, one thing, user.

Alpha Protocol received a delay, a budget increase, and from reading the dev article on Wikipedia, a very understanding and hands off approach to Alpha Protocol. KotOR 2 got Christmas fucked, New Vegas got Zenimax fucked. Alpha Protocol was them being incompetent.


Feel free to make the statement yourself then, my man.

The game itself is bad and there's hardcore doublethink in the game. Do not buy this.

Sirin is waifu tier and the only good female character in the whole game.

bitches b crazy mayne, dont trust em

Courtesy of all the hubbub surrounding the so called 'wage-gap' there is a legitimate wage gap between males and females in the 20-30 y/o range. I think single females in this category earn roughly 20% more.

Every time there is a thread about this god forsaken piece of shit, things tend to get political. Gameplay is absolutely craptastic save for spell creation system, story is Deus EX: MD long, the backdrop is that the evil overlords army invading tumblrland . . . So yeah, heavy leftist politics involved. Bad gameplay is pretty much Obsidians shtick now, but fully pozzed world and story? Fuck, I mean what else is there to talk about? Let this rubbish of a game die already, even the bloody mainstream reviewers and casuals do not even like it.

Hopefully the final nail in the coffin then.

It's got a retarded pricetag for such little content.

What talent Obsidian did have in their writing staff fucked off a few years back. All they've got left are SJWs.

I had remembered reading that SEGA fucked around with the scope of the project, and looking back into it, that seems to be at least partially true. Just a quick search suggests that Obsidian failed on a leadership standpoint and SEGA was indecisive about what they wanted out of the project in the first place, so there was no side that didn't fuck up

Sega literally told them to make any RPG. Their approach was so hands off you couldn't have asked for a better publisher, provided the developers were competent in the first place.

The only fault Sega has in the development of Alpha Protocol is not keeping Obsidian on a tighter leash to force them to actually make a quality product.

Can't you choose to be the bad guy and shit all over their goody liberal narrative? In Mass Effect for example you could be a comical villain if u went renegade every single time.

Yes, it's one of the redeeming qualities of this cliffhanger game, equality works both ways.

There were societies in the past that loved war

Only the largest landowners were remote. Most nobility had their castle and ruled the land around it. It's why many peasant uprisings successfully managed to kill their liege and his family (only to be later massacred by the royal army)

(checked)

Why the fuck did videogames need politics shoved into it? These leftist shitheads have poisoned every bit of society and need to hang. What surprised me a lot is was checking out half chan after almost a year away from it is how much of a presence these fuckers have on halfchan, especially Holla Forums I browse every once in a bit I never used to give a shit about politics until these sjws, liberals, leftist shitheads became mainstream, now they need to hang.

...

...

like come on guys

REEEEE WHY IS THING EVEN IN THE GAME?

...

That doesn't appear to be the case. A former employee blamed Obsidian primarily, but talked about SEGA changing the design requirements. Urquhart mentioned a 500k portion of the game being cut because of SEGA. Avellone mentioned SEGA overseeing the game design portion

So it sounds like one of those scenarios where they weren't going to give guidance, but weren't going to fuck off either, and Obsidian clearly needed one or the other (probably more interference rather than less) and had shit fucked with on top of screwing themselves over due to lack of strong internal management

It's not a "Primarily SEGA's fault" thing, but to say they were entirely blameless is also incorrect. Entire segments of your game getting cut and having the basic acceptance criteria of your project change will also dick over teams that have decent leadership. When you combine that with a team that doesn't, you get Alpha Protocol

Because when almost everything in this game is shit because gameplay sucks and it is filled with politics no matter which side it is, when you talk about it you are about about how shit it is. You cunts are just twitching at everything everyone is or going to say.

And ironically, you are both sperging out and virtue signaling. Now fuck off.

signaling is inevitable
Holla Forums are niggers (dumb, angry, violent) and the commies are faggots (doctrinaire, preachy, stifling)

...

Both sides are dumb in their own ways.

One side isn't trying to kill you with a nigger overdose though. False equivalence is what the left is trying to do because they've started to realize how badly they've fucked up.

...

Nothing of this applies to what OP is talking about tho.
Are you feeling alright user?

Sawyer is an auteur of shit gameplay, don't insult pretentious faggots by associating them with him.

The game sucky and has shit writing. The rest is covered by this video.

wait are they actually seeing what they are doing? Do they really want to kill their own race even tough they know we are right? I cant figure out whats real and whats satire anymore.

Didn't they gave a job to Sam Whatsherface, of GTA virtual rape fame, despite her not having any credentials or expertise?

Pretty sure a lot of them are actually Jewish. As far as I can tell, they haven't figured out yet that Muslims want to murder/rape them as well.

...

See

That side's still trying to kill me in other ways over stupid shit.

Checked. Pal, I would bite anyones head off if they put politics in vidya no matter which side. At least the bloody right do not try to shove it into vidya because they are more productive things they rather do than the cancerous left. One thing I will agree with is that the cancerous left needs to die for recklessly overloading countries with good-for-nothings and fucking everything up from movies to vidya to sate their moral need to be a bloody hero.

When the left show up, the other side will too. And since this game is terrible, and loaded with politics. What the hell do you think is going to happen. Holy crap biscuit, fuck their ancestors to the eighteenth generation, this game is the PERFECT EXAMPLE of why politic-injected games need to fucking die in stillbirth. We cannot even have discussion without bringing in politics because the whole game is one big whine from a bunch of political cunts on one side.

Fuck this game, may it be forgotten and lost to the annals of time; And may the writers burn for turning a concept with huge potential into irredeemable rubbish.

It's like that because of posters like yourself.

The way to handle politics is pretty simple, you present it as a series of questions but never give answers. Now, the obvious problem is that your perspective and whatever bias you have will worm its way into the game. However, presenting things as a question, with a lot of research done to set up the question, can soothe a lot of potentially ruffled feathers because the player reaches their own conclusion.

Why try to change it? Shitposters will always rule here. Make merry with it.

...

How about you make merry with a noose instead.

was listening for real until he started with the christcuckold bullshit. this whole generation of mentally ill SJWs is because of enabler christcucks

Cute. I'll take it under consideration, but I think I'll just shitpost more instead. I like throwing logs on this housefire.

And Obsidian failed miserably in this regard in this game. New Vegas and P:ST has some political undertones to it, but rather than politics I would say it is more of a philosophical themes. In this game, you got characters saying straight to your face with the raging almost out-of-character passion about political topics that almost 100% mirrors real life and that shatters the suspension of disbelief so hard. To say simply: this game is done horribly in bad taste, and discussing this game seems to be a bad idea and a recipe for disaster. Seen threads like this several times in these few months, things almost always turned into this kind of nonsense. Once again, I cannot say this enough.

Fuck this game, and fuck the writers.

Got any sources?

A pretty obvious right winger is the Age of Decadence developer, but you wouldn't know it from his game or his conduct, and his product is leagues above and beyond what Obsidian shat out, both in terms of narrative and gameplay.

Sure, products that shill a particular narrative aren't appealing regardless of whatever political allegiance the developer subscribes to, but I've actually yet to see a game so laden with batshit right wing politics that it becomes unbearable to play thorough.

Like I said, it's false equivalence to claim both the right and the left are equally bad. The right wing didn't shit up games, movies, books, comics et al to the point white, heterosexual men are fleeing hobbies they've supported for decades for anything else. There's a reason the Democrats in the US have lost over 1000 political mandates in the country over the last eight years, there's a reason left wing parties all across Europe are suffering massive losses when elections come around.

To pretend the right is as bad, or ever was as bad as the left is deceitful whining from crypto-leftists trying to make themselves look as good as the right by comparing themselves to them. And of course shit will turn political, specifically because the left dragged politics into videogames and keep bringing them up time and again. Should we keep quiet while they shill their shit propaganda?

crpgs aka wrpgs were a mistake.

What did you expect from the origina SJW's? They are brainwashed people who worship a desert lying demon who backstabbed other ancient gods of babylonya and assyria and then started portaying itself as the "one true god".

vidyagaems need to be littered with the blood of jap devs. crpgs aka wrpgs are not rpgs. its mario and luigi not mario and green mario ok. praise kojima.

I know nothing of this game, but I have a nostalgia boner for Obsidian.
The thread doesn't sound very optimistic, so is it worth the bandwidth to pirate at least?

Its like a more retarded version of Pillars of Eternity, and that is saying a lot.

Like I said earlier, at the least right did not fuck up movies, vidya, or anything for their political crusade, and they do not ruin countries for the sake of their ego. It is not like I turn blind eyes to both side, hate both equally for what just they are without knowing the specifics and wish they both go away. I just do not like politics in vidya or anything else, keep that shit in the council or whatever they should be done and keep it out of everything else.

And yeah, I tire of this harebrained bickering already.


Not even worth a pirate. Gameplay sucks, the story is short, and it is filled with enough political shit done in bad taste it turned any attempts to discuss it without holding back into this nonsense. Avoid it as if it is AIDS.

Remember when everyone was trhowing a fit about how christians wanted to ban violent videogames? Yeah, turns out it ws one guy, a christian, who was also a democrat.

Whoa
Thanks for the warning guys

It was actually three guys, all Democrats, two who were Jewish to no one's surprise.

Also, Hillary tried to ban violent games too.

Color me shocked, and since she couldnt ban them outright she now leads the ideology wich is corrupting vidya to its very core with SJW bullshit

Yeah if she WON

She's poison now and nobody likes her

Thanks for understanding nothing. The entire problem goes back to spiritual layer being gone. It has nothing to do with God and everything with some funky heresy running wild. Too be precise, I suspect it was Millenialism that caused all the bullshit. The progressive model of History comes from there. The damage it has done is at first not apparent. You have the renaissance, the deterioration of Medieval society and the Colonization of the New World some time later. If you follow history a little further and pay attention, you will find somewhere a period in which people started to believe that there is no absolute, no thing in itself. From our perspective, this is where SJWism actually started to become a thing.
Instead of rejecting religion immediately, you should take a look at the original source.

Also I wouldn't bet on Sumerian religiosity. Do you know how its practice looks like and what funky social experiments took place? Do you have any idea how Sumerian Myth looks like?


Not as long Jeff Vogel is cranking out his games. Take a look!
spiderwebsoftware.com/products.html

I disagree. Politics have a place in vidya, but like that other user said, instead of giving players your shitty answers, give them questions and let them draw their own conclusions. Choice is key, but choice only works when the player cares for the consequences. Tyranny fails at this because at no point did I ever give two shits about any of the characters or factions, let alone the fate of the world.

New Vegas works for the most part because all three sides are (more or less) represented equally. All three have their own good and bad points, and the game asks the player to answer the question "Who do you think is best for the Wasteland?"

Tyranny, again, in a stark contrast, doesn't even bother with that, the writing is so shit it actively undermines the very premise it's trying to set up. What other choice is there but Kyros? Everything else is a worse alternative. Why even bother giving the player a choice when the answer is fucking obvious from the get go?


Nobody liked her before either, it's why the Jews and Saudis had to waste a billion dollars trying to get her elected and discredited their own propaganda machine in the process.

dunno fam but christcuckery seems like the most cucked of all religions.

Also, what would a right wing game look like, functionally? It would just be normal, probably militaristic shit. Meanwhile the left jams trannies everywhere.

Satanism is worse. "Fuck my wife" the spiritual path.

Libshit strawmanning backfiring is nothing new. Pic related.

I think of them philosophical rather than political, I think this is a blurry line here between them but you make a good point and example of what I did not fully understand earlier about what the other user said. Politics. They may have their places in vidya, but not as a straight whine from the writers who cannot keep their shit together and a propaganda.


Right wing at the core represents traditionalism I think. So nearest thing on top of my head (and this will be a complete wild throw) would be comfy game like Harvest Moon. Living the good life, tame the land, toil hard, work hard, find a good wife/husband, raise a family, meaningfully contribute to community and society in a nice friendly little town. Such a good wonderful life it represents.

I have a religion much older than yours and not pozzed, but thanks for the advice, tell the pedophile king francis i said hi.

...

...

For gods sake, what is wrong with these people, cant they see what they are doing?

...

Wasted opportunity

Mmm I think there's an issue with the message here

Good thing they're bitching about Christians because otherwise it would be seen as hateful

...

Wew is this from Tyranny? Tell me which game is it from so I can boycott it?

If it's not a neir automata thread it's shit.
reported

It's some nu Shadowrun from the guys who are now making a Battletech game, set in year 3k+ where everyone is obsessed about their ancient Earth ancestry.

The guy who made AoD is conservative? He never seemed to bring up politics, but he does not seem to shy away from darker themes. Did he say he was?

Kind of off topic, but another big name conservative in the industry who surprised me was the guy who made fairly odd parents.

Well yeah, normal devs don't bring up their bullshit into vidya.

Thanks user.

Conservatives are too afraid of being blacklisted to have public opinions

the bad news is you completely lack balls and want to live in a world where you're one step up from livestock with a morphine drip straight to your brain

the good news is that it's actually possible

the other bad news is that it's only possible if you're a nigger in new guinea who doesn't have gunpowder or smallpox

the problem is that you fail to see how your shit is actually just a weak compromise with hardline anarchoprimitivism

Wait until you see what they're doing with their next game

Tim Cain is gay but would you know that from playing Fallout or Troika games?

TO be fair he says it's just an excuse. The screenshot even says, "killers first" muslims second.

How can they ALL be halfbreeds?

...

Let me guess, Steiner will be the 'Trump' faction.

WoB literally did nothing wrong

I got it. You are angry at God. Can you please leave that shit out and not play Holla Forums?


Its Darksprint:Serpent drop and that dialogue comes with its territory. Its nothing nu, its just the same retarded shit people in those games were thinking. The next installment had a nice scene that dismantles the notion of progressive bum paradise. You go out with the dwarf decker to get something from a former Shockwave rider who lives hidden in her tiny apartment, kinda like a /jp/ NEET. She had to flee from Berlin, because the Flux State got dismantled by the AGC and the Corps. The dwarf points out how that was the inevitable end of it and a feature of anarchic communism.

That shit that wasn't shouted out, because Hare Brain Schemes are normal people who don't proselytize for the retarded politics from the source material.


Because they are Space mix?

Which is why they've gone and shat on Battletech the way they did.

Black Portuguese, duh

No such thing as ethnic Europeans, brah

fucking prove that Holla Forums was wrong
they predicted literally everything that happened to Holla Forums, fucking two years plus in advance, and people flung shit at them because they were annoying in the way all lifer imageboard users are annoying

The bum paradise was kind of fucked in Dragonfall as well. You have the one little area that you visit that is going to shit because the times are bad, and one character directly compares how things are working to a shitty version of feudalism. I say shitty, because you are apparently the baron of the shitty little plot of land, but you still do all the fucking work.

Truly Holla Forums possesses a gift.

How so? I am not familiar with Battle Tech. I can say the following for all their Shadowrun games, especially Dragonfall:

What you see and read in DF is retarded politics from the source material. I know from the Kraut novels, that Hamburg is a anarcho socialist flux state too, that some Shaman punx life in the radioactive Wasteland of Saarland, North Rhine Westphalia is a Romy theocracy. Guess what I also got from the novels: They were all portrayed as shit. Especially Berlin, were one of a MCs friend got shot a street market in broad daylight.


Holla Forums was proven wrong as soon Hotwheels stepped back. They will be more wrong as soon Holla Forums ceases to exist. I know their sperg theories. Do you see any more drama? Do you see any more crashes or a slow death? Guess what, Holla Forums is stable. Also Holla Forums is 16 autists led by brown trap.

hotwheels lost control of his own site immediately after they said he would and this proves them wrong

fucking lol

also Holla Forums is more or less the only board/demo on this site. it's the only reason this place has posters. you can't go ten posts without them popping up. to say that it will cease to exist is fucking absurd.

also, yeah i absolutely fucking do see a slow death. 3600 posters to like 2200, except on Holla Forums, which is the only real board on this site? yeah, i do.

How could they not, honestly. The Inner Sphere is thousands of colonized Worlds. The first colony ships that left Terra might have been more or less homogeneous but how can a planet keep some kind of homogenous genealogy after centuries of trade, immigration and War?

How is that supposed to work. Are you suggesting House Davion segregrated all of his citizens by race or the nation their ancient forefathers came from?
Why the fuck would anybody in the year 3000something who lives in a remote prefecture in the Draconis Combine care if some ancient predecessor came from Portugal or Spain? And that suggests they would even remember after the Civil War and following collapse.

Which he technically already had, because it belongs 60% to Jim? Also we are on 2200 since the last December. Overall we are still on about 10.000 unique IPs. You are lying to yourself if you claim that Holla Forums is slowly dying. In reality It got hammered by Warosu autism schemes and the Technical gamble with Josh.

Also what said. A normal person doesn't post his autistic theories that are blatantly wrong and obviously a product of drug abuse. Another hint of their actual, because one of /jp/'s hobbies is taking drugs.Webms related.


Also this. Politics in Shadowrun is sometimes balls to the walls retarded, because everything has gone to shit and all the fun experiments are popping up. The only thing that resembles a actual country is Tir Taingire which is exclusively for gay assholes I mean elves.

Also control over the entire site was not the point of Holla Forums. It was simply providing a system on which nobody had to deal with mod drama. Not a simple task when you have spergerking prowling around posting meth theories. But fear not; There is always a next software and it will be designed against the likes of Holla Forums. Wanna bet?

It's not that they're mixed, It's that they're clearly defined as a mix of two (and in one case, three) existing 21st century ethnicities

It's WEIRD

warosu is like five people and they wouldn't be caught dead going anywhere near anything on this site because they're allergic to everyone but themselves. you do not fucking know anything about the shit you're fucking talking about.

spend some time learning about the culture before having opinions on it, you slav
i don't lecture you on the finer points of 2ch.ru culture

i want to buy you a duolingo course

And around thousand years later.
So why bring up their ancestry from literally another world?

Oh right, yeah that's dumb, i agree.

Warosu closed its /ghost/ exactly 2 years ago. This is when we got the first meta problems here. This is also the same we got all the some former /jp/sies here who actually don't bother any one. Freech, where Holla Forums is nowadays and heavily stinking like Warosu is like 16 people.

Its also pretty funny how you are totally wrong about me. I rest my case.

i was fucking there for /ghost/, and i was fucking here for the """"""Holla Forums raids""""" and there is no motherfucking way those are the same people

also Holla Forums looked more like ED/cowfags to me tbqh

Explain why a 4chan archive site became a thorn in 8ch's side?

We were just having fun pointing and laughing at librul agendas in vidya…

you're fucking asking me to believe that people who spend all their time pining after a board that died in two thousand and fucking nine managed to completely uproot themselves from their home, overcome their disgust with every other imageboard long enough to settle here despite all of the other alternatives they have, there's like five different sites for these people that aren't eightchan, and then give enough of a fuck to spam the rest of the site


it didn't. my guess is someone had a grudge against them and decided to exploit the dumbfags here with memes

And the fact there is not a single white person in the entire cast.

It's the future so

I tell you instead how its archive became infested with newfags who never started out on 4chan in the first place, caused nothing but problems there and on 4/jp/ and 4/o/. Then got their clock punched by the Admin of the archive for posting links to child model streams and then ended up here where they latched onto /int/ and its beef with Lowcard. That is the reality I could figure out. After this I had something better to do. Thinking holding grudges is for absolute autists like Null.


See above. Nowadays they are gone.

Honestly? Unless the whites made the smart choice and left the nogs back on earth then everybody would be a racemixed mongrel in the year 3000.

Denerys sure let herself go.

Some will consider themselves to be crossbreeds of current year ethnicities, but many won't. They'll be mongrels with brand new ethnic identities belonging to brand new nations. What was a Portuguese person 1000 years ago? What was a Cuban or a Serb?

It goes the other way too: where are the people who are not crossed? There were distinct Irish and Greek people 1000 years ago. Mongrel or not there will be groups claiming one current year ethnic identity in 1000 years' time.

Avellone may be a little pretentious


But at least the guy had something resembling talent, he could craft a pretty solid RPG narrative and knew his way around writing likable if unconventional characters that had depth. It's pretty telling that he was one of the bigger pieces holding Obsidian together when in PoE his characters had ninety percent of their content axed, but still managed to be the best of the bunch.

I really want more details concerning just how shittily he was treated. He went from saying that he'd jump at the chance to work on the next Fallout if Beth offered it to Obsidian, to saying that he'd avoid it just because of how much he hated working with Obsidian.


I'll never understand why game designers feel the need to balance single player RPGs. Who gives a fuck if a build is hilariously OP or a skill can be exploited? The experimentation and finding something that works is like half the fun of that shit. I can understand wanting to make sure that nothing's completely useless, but making everything equally as boring isn't exactly a good idea either.

ну и какие альтернативы остались в Ru сфере? Я честно сказать вообще не вижу смысла возвращаться на ru борды или что там от них осталось

Going by current trends and the whole of human history there won't be all that much racemixing going on, and certainly not with niggers.

Based on what, planescape? 80% of what made that game interesting is based on the DnD fluff. Same thing with MotB.

Alpha Protocol openly took stuff from Borne, Bond and even Tarantino, apparently. Kotor 2 had a nice buildup but like every other obsidian game it fizzled out with no real climax.

Nigga Rance does the evil empire part much better and he's not even evil

(checked)
Debatable. He does become the demon king in one of the endings

Can you side with the empire?

Why give the player options if pretty much all of them are shit?

They wouldn't care where they came from, they'd care what they are. A nigger is a nigger no matter where it claims to have come from.

that's retarded, warosu was full of embittered oldfags and anime people
you're talking about people I know and have talked to
exactly, embittered oldfags.


I don't fucking know but I sure am goddamn sick of a bunch of cyka blyat motherfuckers stumbling in and trying to tell me that my culture that I've been part of for ten goddamn years is degenerate, or that Holla Forums was/is somehow a japanophile plot when it read like either EDfags or finns

What?

Tell that the teenbros, not me. I also know of the oldfags personally. Has a board here. Any problems from that place? No.

"teenbros" don't fucking exist, that's a shitty meme some butthurt faggot on the w came up with to describe people who didn't live up to what he thought the spirit of the board should be

you have been played

only one I could find was Cucktaku from a few years back, but it was Urquhart talking
It's mentioned in the Wikipedia article
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_Protocol
"However, Urquhart said that one of the reasons for the game's development problems was due to indecision on Sega's part, particularly in regards to budgeting; he gave an example of one long segment of the game that cost around 500 thousand dollars to produce, which was eventually cut because Sega thought it wasn't a good fit for the game"

Also while we're at it:
Avellone on SEGA taking part in the design
lightspeedmagazine.com/nonfiction/feature-interview-chris-avellone-game-designer-fallout-new-vegas/
"SEGA also participated in the design (not so much the narrative) and they also dictated the marketing and release schedule for the title as well."

On design elements changing due to publisher interference
neoseeker.com/news/14001-alpha-protocol-absolute-failure-of-production-says-anonymous-dev/
"Sega also was a factor, because they kept changing the design requirements (yes they had heavy influence there), which never gave the producers and designers time to actually decide on one set of features to make and polish."

There was also apparently a leaked design document

It's not a case of Obsidian being blameless, for sure, but there was definitely fuckery going on on both sides. If anondev was legit, Chris Parker is a bit of a fucker and helped tank the project. If that's the case, I wouldn't be surprised if he fucked around with later projects as well
