LOL, but readying that about Zelda and Mass Effect, wow your opinion is far from the normal.

I tend not to like WRPGs because they love to do choice and then do it poorly. With Mass Effect I kept winding up with three choices I hated. Being big into tabletop RPGs, I typically knew exactly what I wanted "my Shepard" to do, it's just Bioware wouldn't let me do that.

EXAMPLE: Beginning of ME1. I'm on the bridge with the Captain and the alien VIP Nihlus. Joker has just impressed this VIP with an astute bit of navigation and now it's my turn. I want to look professional. I want to stand there and say nothing, or, barring that, ask an intelligent question which indicates a deep knowledge of the situation. What options do I get?

Three versions of "What's this about, sir?"

This is not two minutes into the game and I am already convinced Shepard is one incompetent soldier.

For comparison, in FF XIII-2 you have their choice prompts which do basically the same thing, but I regularly wanted to pick ALL of the options instead of none of them. They're written from a pre-built character's point of view, so both the options and the limited freedom makes sense.

As to Zelda, which one doesn't belong: A Link to the Past, Ocarina, Wind Waker. ALttP and WW both have deep mythology and character development. Ocarina does not.

Yea, some of the decisions in Mass Effect 1 really are meaningless. Near the end of the game they become more important, especially the ones end game. One of the biggest critisizms of the Mass Effect series is how all the decisions we made in the game did not effect the ending of the trilogy.

Ocarina of Time does not have character development? That's a first.. What about Princess Zelda becoming Sheik? How can ALttP have more character development then OoT?

Also how can you say you don't like WRPG's, when Fallout 3 is your avatar?

(That's actually not Fallout. That's Spaceman Spiff from Calvin and Hobbes. Besides, there are a few exceptions to the rule.)

I don't really care about decisions and how they relate to the ending. In fact, there's a fair case with as distant and overwhelming enemy as the Reapers that most of them shouldn't matter: only a few probably would, but if you made a decision pop up twice in the game, it would be obvious which choices were relevant to the ending. My problem was that I couldn't role play in an RPG.

Generally, being aware of what's going on and knowing what you want to do next is a good idea. It's called good role-playing because I know what my character wants and how to get it. Mass Effect punishes me for it, though, because what I want to do or say is seldom one of the options. It's not my choice. It's the developer's. I know I'm more sensitive on this note than most, but I hardly call what Mass Effect did "choice." The illusion of it, perhaps, but if it were choice, I could just say no to all of them and do my own thing.

And Zelda becoming Shiek? In Wind Waker's beginning when Link's sister is kidnapped, Link draws his sword, sprints off a cliff. and Tetra grabs him. We always knew Link was like this, but Tetra? She's a pirate...who is willing to risk her life to save a stranger. I'd say that adds a lot more to Tetra's character than Zelda dressing up like a man when thousands of minions were looking for her. And remember, that's ten minutes into Wind Waker. The Zelda/ Shiek reveal isn't until the last dungeon in Ocarina.

XBox One will cause Cancer and Diabetes in America.

Kinect will fail in America because we're too fat to want to move our hands.

-KH: Dream Drop Distance is one of the best 3DS games.

-Current gen started in March 2011 when the 3DS was released, it was followed by PSVita and then the Wii U, PS4 and XBox One are just late.



Why don't you make like a tree and get out of here?

This topic was done already just a couple months ago, but here goes....

Final Fantasy IX was the only great Final Fantasy game and Final Fantasy VII wasn't that good.

Zelda games suck.

The Bioshock series is overrated.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution's story had to have been thought of by pretentious douchebags. Also, the main character has to be the weakest cyborg in the history of cyborgs. Punches a guy, has to take a break. Runs 20 feet, has to take a break. Runs on FUCKING BATTERIES!

Elder Scrolls is a series for people that just don't know any better.

There is no such thing as a good retail game that was only made for the PC.

Game Controller >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Mouse & keyboard.

99% of indie games suck.

Dragonball Z: budokai 3 is one of the greatest fighters ever created.

Dead or Alive is not a good series.

Bethesda has never made a good game, and they probably don't even know how.

The Tomb Raider series was never any good because Lara literally controlled like a jumping tank. People only bought it because she had big titties.

Saints Row: The Third is boring as shit.

ICO is nothing more than a tedious escort mission.

Onimusha was a terrible series, except for Dawn of Dreams.

Shenmue was overrated. Yakuza is a much better series.

Master Chief is a lame character. Especially, after he cried over an A.I. program.

97% of PC developers are lazy.

The first Infamous was TERRIBLE!

you should also try naruto ultimate ninja series...you will love it
