Arcanum and it's combat
The Arcanum combat statement was meant as a personal preference.
But Arcanum combat is better in my opinion because of reasons that have been discussed in great length and details earlier in this thread.
You can skip or run past a lot of the combat in arcanum, and the...
I keep being told about these great points being raised, somewhere.
Show, don't tell.
It seems no one knows where this discussion came from, and it is now some blame game, or a discussion about Fallout Tactics, or Fallout vs Wasteland FIGTH!
I would think that an RPG is about the characters and the story. It uses in depths characters to tell a story.
Jagged alliance uses action/combat to tell a story.
Earlier we had a similar question, but with Age of Empires instead.
My attempt to answer it was:
"I am not sure what the...
You have not brought any insight to the discussion at hand.
Yes I am not a very perceptive or analytical person. That is why we are discussing some very broad and big game elements here... if you haven't noticed.
This is turning into an MSN conversation, try to bring some insight, and have...
You didn't explain anything. You just say, this is nonsense. This is wrong. This is unreasonable because I say so. Without reading what the discussion is about and its details.
I cannot make it anymore blatant for you, so you will just have to read this discussion thread.
It is clear you did not bother to read any of it, or did not bother to understand any of it. (I don't know what your 1st language is)
Just saying things are nonesens and the other things are nonsense and that all of the things are nonsense,
makes you come off as someone that can't read, can't...
Arcanum should not get any praise for it's combat. And the game tend to force combat upon you, but there is nothing stopping you for running past a lot of it.
The combat in Arcanum is still better Than wasteland 2 for reasons stated earlier. And also, if the combat in Arcanum is not that great...
If you bothered to read what I wrote instead of taking what I say out of context and misrepresenting my argument, you would know.
In wasteland 2 you play as a military faction.
The game constantly feature combat.
Therefore, the developer should have put more effort into that huge chunk of the...
Ups sorry, ment to write "guzzels ammo" not "eat mussels ammo" and Only rivaled by(not buy) sniper rifles.
But yes, a cartoony vapor of small red hearts rises from me, when I let loose a burst of depleted uranium .50 cal.
No, no it's not at all preposterously unfair to wanting a lot more from the combat in Wasteland 2. A game where you spend the majority of your time murdering things. You are a 4-6 man squad working for a military organization where the leader have the military rank of general. Furthermore the...
Divinity Original Sin.
Divinity Original Sin. I created a character I did not care about at all, and I could not make a character that I cared about. The tone seems all over the place. I was supposed to investigate a murder of someone I did not know who was or cared about. The combat I did try...
I will finish Wasteland 2.
I have finished plenty of games that was a miserable experience.
I don't need much to go on, before I know I will enjoy a game.
I don't have a nag for noticing fine detail, so the big broad aspects of a game are going to be all important for me. Graphics, sound...
