School me on games

  1. LoL is good, you should play. As far as other games, I have found that I'm not really playing them anywhere near as much as I used to, unless of course something new I have been waiting for comes out but they come few and far between.

    The last example was the SSX and the only game I'm currently waiting for is Lollipop Chainsaw. But even then I usually just play them for a month or so till I get bored then don't touch them for ages.

    the only thing that sucked so bad at mass effect 3 was the ending aside from that is a good game bro

    For a series that touted that the decisions you made mattered, they didn't really. The ending only exemplified that.

    The best things about Mass Effect are its narrative and characters.

    And anyone feeling out of touch with games, stop playing casual rehashed sequel games. I'm enjoying the blissful destruction of DoDonPachi Ressurection and the challenge of 1CC.

  4. The Elder Scrolls series (which includes Skyrim) is my favorite series of all time. It somehow managed to beat out my long time favorite Final Fantasy because of how much time I put into each one and how much fun I have doing it.

    Skyrim is a HUGE open world RPG. It's a sandbox game meaning that because the world is so open, you don't necessarily have to follow the main story line. Right after you do the opening sequence, you're pretty much free to roam around and do whatever you so please. There are side quests (guild/faction), random miscellaneous quests, and then the main quest. Whatever order you want to do them in is up to you.

    Like MMORPGs, as you level, you have perk trees that you can put perks into that will help you out with whatever build you decide to go with for your character. It's a bit confusing right away and you'll probably screw up your first character, but not enough to where you won't be strong enough to continue on. The game can also be played in First person or third person modes. I prefer first person, as that's what I'm used to, but third person is equally as good, especially if you're used to regular RPGs already.

    I don't know how long ago the gamer in you died, but if you ever played Morrowind or Oblivion, Skyrim is simply a slightly altered and updated version of those.

    Even Daggerfall was fun in its day.

    Pretty much. I think it was when I was like 15 or 16 that I stopped caring? I find this more exciting.

    Starcraft is what the Koreans play

    Bob the builder = Team Fortress 2

    LoL = a game apparently?

    Skyrim and Mass Effect are not the same game although they share similarities. Both are rpg's but Skyrim is set in a fictional world with Orcs and such. Typical medival setting (swords and bows), you run around getting quests and exploring the open world. Gave birth to the "arrow to the knee" meme and "Fus Ro Dah" pops up quite a few times on forums as well.

    Mass Effect is set in the future where you play as commander Shepard. It's a trilogy where you get to save the galaxy by getting all the different races to work together to fight the reapers. The reapers are a bunch of oversized robots (spacecraft) that wipe out all intelligent life in the universe every 50.000 years (the galactic cycle). They believe there can't be peace between organic and synthetic life.

    Starcraft is another reason to worship our Blizzard gods.

    Team Fortress 2 is EA making money off DLC

    I'll think about that when Starcraft: Ghost comes out.

    My brother had Daggerfall when I was growing up, I played it a little bit, but it went over my head back then. I haven't played it since. I've actively played the series from Morrowind til now though.

    Don't worry about it, Anti. I'm out of the loop on all this gaming discussion as well and I couldn't care less. Games aren't really that great.

    I was thinking it would have been released after SC2 got peoples attention, as it's still not out and was intended for the previous generation of consoles.. I don't think it's going to be released any more. Even if it will be released as it looks now it won't be for the PS2/Xbox or even the PS3/XBox 360.
    On the bright side, if they release it for the next generation of console right after their introduction than a PC version might be done as well and it won't look as bad as current console games.

  13. StarCraft isn't just played by Koreans, but they're the best at it :3

    League of Legends is fun IMO, but others will disagree for various reasons. I was trying to think of a good video to post that would give an decent example of what the game is like, but I couldn't think of one that would be good. It's one of those games that you have to play for yourself to understand it.

    Though, I will post this long-ass LoL video by TotalBiscut (a well-known PC gamer):

    One thing to note about LoL is that matches can be very long (no shorter than 20 minutes). It's not a game that you can play if you don't have much free-time.

  14. I don't get the point of this thread. You don't care for games, but you want to know what they are about, but then you don't really care?

    Skyrim is an RPG/free roaming game; you pick a character, choose the class, parameters and what not, and then explore the world. You're free to go for the main quest or, if you prefer, to forget about it entirely and go wherever you want. There are a lot of cities and npc that always give you more quests, and you can use them as a little 'guide' to move in your journey. You can also forget about that too and just walk around and kill stuff that moves. It is very big, and playing such a game becomes a challenge exactly because it takes so much time and dedication only a few players can pull it off. A friend once said, "The Elder's Scroll games are not really games, they're wives."
    You can play both in first person and in third, your actions affect the rest of the world, but note that the whole world moves on its own as well; monsters assault villages, other villages engage battles with some others and stuff like that.

    Mass Effect is a trilogy of RPGs, where you pick one character, choose the class and the appearance, but other than that it's always you. You are still able to go around and collect secondary stuff, build relationships with various members of the crew, and you can choose to act as a hero or as a douche, changing parts of the story. It's a third person shooter that became more action as the years went on, you have a limited array of tactics and commands to move your party members, but you're pretty much on your own most of the time. The best part of this game is the plot, so if you're tempted I would recommend to start from the first. Every game lasts for about 40 hours each, and it's really addicting. You could ask Nefly about that, she's the latest... victim.

    Starcraft is a Real Time Strategy game - you handle the buildings, the researches and the army. There are three races, it takes place in the future and in space, kind of a futuristic thing. The story was good, but the aspect of the game which made it legendary is the multiplayer option - battle against other people in a various of different maps, customized ones as well, that include many different set ups and configuration to play and win. Starcraft 2 came out last year, I believe?
    Another similar one, same company, is Warcraft - medioeval/fantasy settings, 4 races, more or less the same game, although the management of the units and their functions is different enough to make you change the way you play completely.

    Team Fortress 2 is a first person shooter, multiplayer. Various types of soldiers, you kill people, play flag carrying games, take bases, you know. That's... pretty much it.

    LoL is league of legends, another multiplayer game. You control one character, you have abilities and do stuff. You know, when you start to describe such games, they really seem stupid. Maybe it's because I don't really know much about it.

    ^ This...

    I mean seriously... some games are not enough to give me that - "WOW" - effect anymore...

    I (mostly) play FPS and have played plenty of them, like Brothers in Arms, Medal of Honour, and COD was OK until the zombies invaded it, then it became useless, mindless, gaming with poor storytelling.

    Return to Castle Wolfenstein and Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory was fast paced for me that I enjoyed it.

    I have also played some RTS gaming, as well as many Multiplayer based games, which I enjoyed playing with some members from Sankaku.

    Now, only certain games, that peak my interest are the way to go (like Alice; Madness Returns and similar) and - I take my time playing them too - as I am in no need to accomplish (nor compete) in completing a FULL game within a matter of hours.
