Thread 4 Gamers

This method of thinking is probably how I've managed to play over 10 campaigns of Mass Effect. Differences and similarities between the choices I make tend to go beyond the game. I have to become an apologist on occasion when there's something RP-breaking. My most notable instance of that is when I was trying to play as a consistent lesbian character (who was not interested in Liara) across all three games.

I love actually RPing stuff in these games.

I mean, they are RPG's (Role Playing Game) for a reason...

I don't think I'd have the time for 10 campaigns, though, no job or not. I have too many other games right now.

I don't think I play as many games as the average gamer, but the games I do play, I attain absolute mastery of. At least, that's how I excuse my addiction.

So I watched some Far Cry 4 gameplay.

Pagan Min seems to be almost exactly like Vaas, only rich and not nearly as ugly.

I mean, the man has fucking style.

I like his insanity though, despite the fact he has a somewhat similar insanity style as Vaas. Though I think Vaas was more batshit insane.

He's also voice acted by Troy Baker....And sounds absolutely nothing like how I know him from any other games he's been in. Which is why I love him as a voice actor. Actors seem to be able to get away with sounding the same most of the time, but voice actors you start going "Oh hey, he sounds exactly the same". Kinda weird how actors get away with it more, but not voice actors.

Seriously, Troy Baker is a great voice actor. He's done Booker DeWitt in Bioshock Infinite, Joel in The Last of Us (They both sound similar, but different at the same time), freaking main dude in Infamous: Second Son, which is apparently closer to what he sounds like NORMALLY and I couldn't identify him at first, and then this guy...

Him and Nolan North are my two most notable favorites.

Coincedientally, if my parents allow me to dye my hair then I'll literally end up with my hair exactly the same, although I may style it differently.

Trust me, I play certain games a lot as well. Skyrim I have like 300 hours now (Including pause time I think), and Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer I have like 10+ days of play time. Bad Company 2 and Bad Company 1 probably have a lot as well....

Oh, and there were MMO's I used to play a LOT.

I swear, I'm going to find a gay marriage mod for M&B so Lady Isolla and I can be Queens of the Swadians. The usurper's only down to Praven and a few pesky castles to the west.

Does Mass Effect is RPG and Third-Person Shooter game? Or is it RPG and FPS?

Excuse me, sir or ma'am, but I am the Mass Effect addict here. I can most likely answer 99% of all questions regarding the full series without consulting any wikis. It is a Third Person Shooter with RPG elements across all games.

Sorry, I just quoted the post from above..okay, I'm sorry.

I don't know that you are the expert. Is it any good?

Nah, not really. One of the worst series I've ever played. Take a quick scroll down and you'll see the awful, awful scores.

All three games have received critical acclaim for their storyline, characters, romances, voice acting, choices, and the depth of the galaxy.[1] Video game website GamesRadar called Mass Effect the best new franchise of the generation, saying the galaxy was so well-constructed that it felt like a decades-old franchise and represented "a high-water mark for video games as a story-telling medium."[2]

The worst is 82. The best is 96. Are you being sarcastic to me? Because I'm asking quite seriously, I intend to install one, or two.

I'm being sarcastic, mate. They're worth it. 3 has its issues when it comes to story but its gameplay is unmatched. No critiques necessary for the first two games.

SPODER! Get your ass in here. We need to have a Mass Effect-Off!

Sorry. I can't differentiate between sarcasm and jokes in internet.

You do realize that I have the entirety of the dialogue from Mass Effect 1 memorized?

As well the one who has read all of the literature?

[Czechanada]

There was a great addition to the r/pcmasterrace wiki:

Why do you care what other people enjoy games on? Why can't you just let them buy what they want?

That's a great question. We (PC gamers) love the game industry just as much as anyone else. Unfortunately for the industry, modern consoles are sucking it dry. It's a systematic financial leech that's slowing down innovation and robbing developers and gamers dry. Consoles are no longer a cool and innovative thing that a company comes out with that developers absolutely love to work with (as was the case in the 1980s-1990s before the 'new age' of PC graphics). They're something developers have to work with (because they're either owned by Sony or Microsoft, or they have no other choice), something that gamers have to buy (because of marketing lies and forced/bribed exclusivity), and that PC gamers have to deal with (because so many people got tricked into buying them and developers prioritize that large and weak-hardwared demographic over the PC). They entered the jurisdiction of the PC gamer when they began to hurt our games, our developers, and our industry. Consoles aren't made by your friends. They're made by conglomerates that know nothing of the game industry. All they see is money in, money out. They don't care about giving you good hardware, good games, or good experiences. They care about making the industry THEIRS and locking everyone in to their deadly cycle and they'll put out any marketing lies they need to to get people to fight for them (they know the psychology, and they know they have the power to trick people into defending them). So, if you care about the game industry and innovation, say no to the console monopoly. They're draining the industry dry and putting their "dirty money" in absolutely no places that benefit you or the industry. They chose this war, not us.

Edge, a traditional console-only magazine, has Star Citizen for it's cover.

Looks like the domain of PC Gaming has finally returned to dominance once again.

Wow. Uh . . . okay, you win. Anybody who can memorize an entire game's worth of dialogue wins in that sort of contest. I feel much more comfortable in admitting that I've done . . . wait, really? Only 12 full campaigns? I surprise myself, I thought I'd done a lot more. Well, I'm not going to pull out a bunch of other CDs, but I'll have you guys know that I fair few more unfinished or partial campaigns. And I've also discovered that I haven't even so much as gotten past the first level in ME3 with an Engineer. What the fuck, me!? Outrageous. Well, there's not going to be any debate about which class I choose in my next campaign, then.

I like how it doesn't feel like a stereotypical gaming magazine.

Hah Beno was joking.

I only obtained the first two games in the series this summer.

AMD claims that Mantle and DirectX 12 will 7.5 times the draw call performance of Direct X 11.

Considering that OpenGL Next will also have similar or superior performance, combined with the development of 20nm graphics card with HBM memory, there may be a revolution in PC gaming graphics.

PC gamers should really just start calling themselves gods now.
