apoligies to anyone in this thread who plays skyrim alot, however your also playing DF, so that says you at least know quality when you see it.
however, please read the entire post before complaining, and pay attention to detail.
Discerning gamers are hardcore about playing interactive movies, as evidenced by their love of titles like Heavy Rain and LA Noire.
hmm... well im not entirely sure here, those titles are fun for entirely different reasons, namely they set out to be that in many ways, and you play for the story.
by 'interactive movies' i was more referring to the fact that even 'open-world' games are pretty damned linear now, making them like those games that intend to be 'movies', depite aiming towards being 'open-world'. its a conflict of interest of sorts.
average idiot CoD/Halo/Skyrim
average, not most of the people on this forum, im talking about the people who play a game, that honestly does not have too much replay value, and can still do the same thing for 8 hours a day.
you said you only play it for fun so that's fine, you play it for some good entertainment when your bored.
i was referring to the people who call these 'repeats' a "phenomenal game with amazing replay value and tons to do" which is about most of what i have heard elsewhere besides little known game forums like DF and such.
did not mean people who realize its inadequate in some ways, and can enjoy it anyways.
see i have a issue, which im guessing Leatra probably shares, where 'ok' or 'typical' games just don't cut it, im not happy playing a 'new' game, and finding it barely compares to its predessecors in some respects, and does not try much to distinguish itself from the stereotype we have all seen x100.
it's good, yes, but it could have been better, and wasn't due to deadlines/greed/laziness.
(its not a good thing to be discerning, no really, it sucks, alot.)
The next elder scrolls will start (as a prisoner of course!) in a round room with a teleporter and a chest. The chest will have all weapons/items/magic gainable, whilst the teleporter goes to the final boss. It will be called 'Fuck it, we don't care anymore'
But it will have dynamic air.
that would amuse me in a practical joke kind of way
but if that was directed at the complaints i voiced, im afraid you missed the point.
anyways, due to my relatively poor ability to state what i mean without offending anyone (im naturally pretty blunt, and tend to come off poorly) i give up on trying to explain what i mean.
