my cat loves me, but he expresses it in dumb ways
he jumped on my laptop last night, shutting it down immediately because it's a cheap piece of shit and it wouldn't turn back on so i'm like, great, hopefully he fractured the fucking motherboard or something after a half hour of tinkering with it, i punched it and it began working again logic 41287
Gaming / Re: Bullshit things in games?« on: March 23, 2015, 12:01:40 PM »Every single time someone asks me this question, and I explain it, a shitstorm starts, so I'm gonna keep it simple.I'm gonna regret asking but I prefer to play games strictly in vanilla. That's how the developers made the game, that's how the developers intended the game to be, and that's how I'm going to play the game. To me, there is no such thing as a "lore friendly" mod. Any mod that could be conceived as "lore friendly" is something that the developers should have done themselves. For example--better graphics mods. It shouldn't be up to the community to fix your broke-ass game. The game should be good out of the gate. I shouldn't have to mod the game just to enjoy it, and if I have to, then why even bother? Play a game that's good even without mods. I wouldn't be surprised if less man hours were put into a game's development, just because the developers knew that there would be a whole community of people who would be willing to fix everything for them through mods. I mean, I don't know if that's ever actually happened, but I don't think it's too far-fetched of a scheme. 41288
Gaming / Re: Bullshit things in games?« on: March 23, 2015, 10:21:43 AM »Because the excuse that 30fps somehow makes the game "better" for their vision simply is. After playing a game in 30 and then jumping to 60, there is no enhancement in the way the game presents its story, it does not make me feel like "OMG I am in a frikin movie!" Games are not supposed to be movies, if I wanted to watch a movie then I would. Take The Order 1886 for example; the devs put so much time into making it feel like a movie. With its black bars, cutscene usage, and its frame rate. After playing it, I kept thinking to myself that there is nothing the FPS is doing to make this game better. It did not enhance anything for its presentation. It just gave me a less smooth camera and more motion blur. If the game somehow had 60FPS, then it would have been nearly the same. FPS does nothing to give you a "cinematic experience" that is done by whats in the game, its gameplay, and style of story telling you put into it.this all just seems to stem from personal opinion, which is fine, but i still don't know why it matters so much you talk about how games are not supposed to be movies--i mean, i disagree in the sense that, you know... movies are pretty fucking cool i don't see why games shouldn't try to emulate them in some way so for you, maybe the fps doesn't do anything to make it feel like a movie, but for someone else, it might and personally, i just don't see a reason to care at all about it if you were really okay with games running at 30fps, you wouldn't be so passionate about this... "issue" if your problem is with developer lies in general, i can understand that a little better but your fixation over this one little thing is kinda... i don't know, it just begs questioning 41289
Gaming / Re: Bullshit things in games?« on: March 23, 2015, 10:08:06 AM »
i guess it's just the principle that you shouldn't lie
but game devs lie all the time--they're basically salesmen; it's their job to lie and i don't see as much uproar over all that other shit they lie about i mean, there's a little bit, but the fps issue seems to hit a soft spot with a lot of gamers and it's just really bizarre to me 41290
Gaming / Re: Bullshit things in games?« on: March 23, 2015, 10:02:23 AM »-30 FPS Makes the Game Cinematic: BUUULLLLL SHIIIITTTTTTT!!!!!!! This is a lie, a poor excuse to cover up the fact that the game cannot achieve anything higher than 30FPS. If you just came out and said that "hey we cant get higher than 30FPS due to our visuals" then fine! No problem.honest few questions though how do you know they're lying how do you know that they don't actually believe it makes it look more cinematic and why would they choose to lie about something that doesn't matter at all i mean, obviously the framerate does matter to some people--otherwise they wouldn't get so angry about not getting their 60fps--but i just can't put myself in the position where i'd ever care about something so infinitesimally insignificant 41291
Gaming / Re: Bullshit things in games?« on: March 23, 2015, 09:59:26 AM »-Illusion of Choice. Games like AC 3 and Dying Light have moments where it presents to you a moment where you may have to make a big choice. Only to literally just play through like a cutscene and control is never given to you.that's a good one 41292

Gaming / Re: "You're breaking the meta"« on: March 23, 2015, 08:17:15 AM »
i actually hear more whining from people who think that "tier whores" are trying to impose tiers on everyone, and marginalize their favorite characters by calling them "useless" and shit
when the reality is, no one's imposing anything and you can do whatever the fuck you want but like i said, i don't play any MMOs like LoL, but i mean, who gives a shit if you'll get "crucified" for playing in an unorthodox way? it's shitty that people seem to react that way, but i mean, shouldn't that incentivize you to prove them wrong? it would for me 41296
Gaming / Re: "You're breaking the meta"« on: March 23, 2015, 08:12:24 AM »
i like metas
but i've never heard of anyone ever getting "crucified" for "breaking the meta" (i don't play too many modern games) not since ssb: melee have i seen people give others shit for wanting to play as weaker characters as opposed to the top ten in the meta if anything, in all the games i play that have established metas (pokemon, street fighter, smash) people tend to respect players who "break the meta" and play as low-tier characters, admiring their fortitude and creativity, because you have to be creative to do anything worthwhile with a weak character 41297
