3 hours into ME 3
I feel like I’m playing ME 1 again, only the facial animations are even worse.
Everyone except Shepard has these massive, bulging eyes that disturb me immensely. I feel like I’m staring into the eyes of Satan when I look at them directly.
So it took me a little while
But I finally got the ending I wanted in Mass Effect 2. Kept trying to not use Miranda, whoops. I am not a clever cookie.
I guess I’m ready to play ME3 now. It’s sitting there, waiting. But I think if I tried right now, I’d just lose my temper and scream at the game, and quite frankly I just don’t want to do that.
Seriously, watching the same ending and having the same conversations for that last 45 minutes of ME2 3 fucken times tonight nearly broke me.
I am not a patient man.
Soul Calibur III
Holy shit guys, I think I’m in love with this game.
Hello game I’m going to waste the rest of my life playing.
I was tempted to play ME3 with a whole new character, and I browsed through the options.
The one thing that really threw me off was the new options for gameplay. ACTION, ROLEPLAYING, and some other option I didn’t even really look at.
Apparently, it’s possible to play the game and instead of having conversations, it simply plays out as a cutscene. Most of the RPG elements are removed, and all you have to do is shoot a heap of shit.
Why would anyone even bother having that option in Mass Effect, of all games.
Seriously
Why
Okami is a beautiful game, but it really does start its learning curve at the lowest point.
“Hey, here’s a simple puzzle for you to get used to the controls! Hmmm, we’d hate for you to miss the point, so we’ll make sure you know EXACTLY what you have to do! Maybe you don’t read very quickly, so we’ll make sure that everything you need to know is highlighted and in simple English! OK, well, you’ve exited the speech bubble, but we’d hate for you to forget how to draw a circle, so the bottom half of the screen will be a massive speech bubble explaining exactly how it’s done! In case you get distracted, the bug dude will be saying it, so that means you’ll get to listen to the repetitive beeping that indicates speech!”
HOPE THE PUZZLE ISN’T TOO CHALLENGING, HAVE FUN!
Seriously, if the whole game is like this I’m quitting and taking up Dwarf Fortress again, that game didn’t fuck around with tutorials at all.
