why? it even has autosaves, so if you leave and die to starvation you can reload without even having to have saved yourself.ĭo you think letting people savescum is gonna make the game more enjoyable? no, it's crap.
the motherfucker who developed that game wouldn't even let you leave the city without buying 4 rations of food first. it should be entirely up to them to discover whatever they don't know yet. Why the fuck would a combat oriented rpg bombard the player with cut scenes? unskipable voiced dialogues? a mandatory lengthy introduction? a mandatory tutorial introduction into the game mechanics of d&d? ffs!!! most of the retards who even want to try out this shit want to because it's d&d so they know some basics.
it's so bad i couldn't stomach one playthrough. make sure that what i have learned already is not gonna be explained to me again like with some retarded mandatory tutorial. If i fail at some point in the game resulting in an end game and have to start over, make sure i can skip exposition. of course your game can't be linear as fuck with mandatory dialogues that always play out the same and just waste the player's time. Of course your game can't be a pile of shitty cut scenes. Of course your game can't suck if you want people to enjoy it rather then speed through it even at the cost of cheating. under normal circumstances you'd get 50% of players in favor of ironman and 50% against it. Who is this vast majority you speak of? the natural spread of opinions is always a bell curve.

*except, of course, for my disdain for those shitstain TLDR heroin addicts like Darth Canoli who actually, after I devoted one sentence to emasculating him in my final recap, took time away from giving blowjobs for crack as his day job to go back through this whole thread, seek out *all* my posts, & rate them TLDR, like some autistic cumguggler who thinks he's going to level up by swallowing every diseased cock in the prison to complete his collection of STDs like they're Pokemon cards. So despite the minor success with making me connect with some of the party characters, the overall writing was bad. OTOH, it failed in regards to the plot (didn't care), the setting (didn't care).
If the writing makes me care about the characters (some worked, others didn't), then it worked. I did the exact same thing, kinda - trying to inject emotion into my writing, or even exaggerating the emotion I did feel, so I can't really criticize the game for doing that as well.īut, I basically agree with both of you - it was blatantly manipulative, but it also kinda worked. I mean, I also admit I exaggerated my emotions* during my recaps. Because I wasn't expecting it & I was bereft of companions at the time (I added Oom! - just to have a party member). But, for me, she was gone a long time (I had Matkina with me for quite a while), & showed back up when I was stripped of my companions, so to see her again was 1) written to be manipulative, but 2) worked on me. You're both right - looking back, I could have triggered the "Rhin leaves" event right before I initiated the events that led me to the Endgame where she returns, so it's possible she wouldn't have been gone all that long.
