Ultimate Videogame Topic 3: The Next Generation
I was in Ultimate Videogame Topic 2, and was reading post #15,720 when I decided that perhaps it's time to start a new thread. About videogames.
As of this posting, there are separate threads for Pokemon, Final Fantasy 14, League of Legends, and Minecraft. Please post in those topics instead, as appropriate.
Also, here is a video of Link rapping

So, how about that Console War?"It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

Please, Brandi, no side conversations. Let's stay on topic here."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

Are we talking Telltale's Walking Dead in this thread?
Here's an album of screenshots from Season 1 featuring dialogue you probably didn't see:

This is a valid criticism of the game. Keep in mind, however, that this was Telltale's first time allowing branching pathways in a story.In post 195, Umbrage wrote:Walking Dead was great untilthe moment I realized absolutely none of your choices make any difference to anything. At the very least your actions should've been reflected in Clem's character.Clem was the best part, so I'm still kinda hyped for S2.

Dee instead of the Huntsman, and I'm legitimately surprised more people didn't. I really don't think Huntsman is guilty nor does he have any useful information.
Also, for the record, Ididn't take Grendel's arm, as I assume most people did. I alsodidn't tell Beast about Beauty, which will probably have ramifications in episode 2. I also didn'thurt Toad."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

It actually is.In post 198, Umbrage wrote: Walking Dead:I actually thought that's what they were doing with Clem, and that her personality would be determined by the choices you made and how you treated her, it would've been really cool if the final choice of whether she shoots Lee was made automatically depending on how you played the gameIf you don't say anything, she will shoot or leave you based on your previous actions."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

I got my friend Sonic 06 for his birthday (as a joke). He played it for two hours, and let me tell you:
It's the kind of game you have to play to believe. Youtube video's don't do it justice. It's looks so much worse in 60 FPS HD. And the controls-- dear god--- they are so difficult."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

Those videos are good, but you seriously have to have the physical controller in your hands and be actively trying to manipulate the characters to get a full understanding of how jarring and unplayable it is. Everything is a hair-trigger, and all-too-frequently you lose sight of your character and become disoriented.In post 234, hasdgfas wrote:

I beat Sonic 2006. My god, did I beat it.
Playing as Sonic? Hilariously terrible.
Playing as Shadow? Frustratingly tedious. Nothing but button mashing. He runs slower, attacks slower, and his vehicles are unusable.
Playing as Silver? Fucking Impossible. Seriously. Between the 'ball puzzle' that I never truly completed, and the boss battle where I couldn't even see my character, I'm surprised I completed the storyline.
Final mission? FUCK, it is TERRIBLE. You can't even imagine the pain. It's 7 quick levels in rapid succession, and each one is less than a minute long, but I died so many times-- suffered 3 game-overs (15+ deaths). But I finally did it.
Sooo... yay?"It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

Damn. Now I have to watch the first three seasons of GoT"It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

FF6 IS amazing. The FF3 on steam looks like a new game, like a remastery of the original. I have no opinion of it, and quite frankly I am hesitant to touch anything Final Fantasy, since the last 10-or-so games in the series were crap. Boring protagonists, abhorrent stories, and uninteresting tedious gameplay."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

I agree with most of what you said, but episode 4 of TWD S1 is one of my favorites. The Crawford part played out almost like a classic Resident Evil game, which was a nice change of pace. And then there was that brutal decision on the belltower that splits the community 50-50. And finally, all the survivors each decide individually whether or not to go with you, resulting in 8 possible different scenarios for the beginning of episode 5. It was very well-done.
But yeah, season 2 had a phenomenal start, then got really mediocre in episode 3, and then really bad in episode 4. The biggest problem for me was just how linear the "game" was, with no decision having a lasting effect. There were other problems too. I'm still excited for season 3, but I hope it improves in quality."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."

Yes. It's good. The time-travel mechanic is alright, but the decision-making is really good so far. There are some decisions with more than two outcomes, and I'm looking forward to episode 2. It has the potential to be as good as Telltale's stuff."It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill with rope and a slim majority."
