Legacy of Kain. Dead and buried, and that's a damn shame. Silent Hill is also in a pretty bad shape.

Wouldn't be surprised if this was the old trick of sending invoices between companies of the holding for basically nothing (label it "creative counseling" or whatever). It makes sure they spend as much money as possible in order to minimize taxation. And it makes sure you can tell the customers...

Amen to that. Maybe Tactics wasn't the best in terms of RPG, but it absolutely nailed the atmosphere. The only hope I have for the official franchise is that Bethesda contracts Arkane Studios for the development of Fallout 5. Arkane already works for Bethesda and is a skilled studio with proven...

Er... If that's a technology that actually exists in the Fallout Universe, that changes everything. Because it means that in the end, both Caesar's Legion and the Brotherhood of Steel were right all along. This kind of tech is just too dangerous to be left in the hands of anyone in the wasteland...

18 Dollars for a skin. That's a scandalous price. It's completely overvalued. These practices will eventually lead the industry to a crash.

Genghis Khan was a meritocrat indeed. But Genghis Khan is not the mongol society as a whole, which has been over romanticized since the centuries. A huge part of their economy was based on slavery. European women could be bought for quite a big price as sex slaves at the slave markets of...

Huh. I read about this problem with framerates. So, it's a game that can only run on very high end PCs, but if your PC is juuuust too good, the game is also broken ? Seriously, have you seen the minimal config for F76 ? Quite impressive. My computer, which is alright for today's standards, can...

It is derpy indeed. But given the current standard when it comes to justifying a faction on screen ? At least the mod author thought about it, found a justification that doesn't contradict anything per se, and even adds something to the existing chinese/shi background, in his/her interpretation...

"Midas Touch in reverse". This is it. These are the words that put the most exact and precise mental image. I can't believe I never thought of it this way.

Yes, and I loved how he wasn't forced into the main quest. You could just miss him and keep walking to Vegas. In fact, I didn't get to meet him until my most recent save, and this was a pleasant surprise, that made me think about how much story content I may still discover, even after all this...

Also, if they had a satellite that allows communication over the continent : -Why do the outcasts want to (and fail to) restore radio contact with the council of elders, when there's a way more efficient technology available ? -Why didn't the council of elders call for backup when the NCR...

There's no part where he assumes that role, that's my point. The scene is the exact same, wether Caesar is alive or not. He was a legate before, he is still a legate now. There's no information that would hint that he went to a higher position. Caesar's death only changes one line of dialogue...

Oh yes, in retrospect, one gotta admit that Fallout 3 had atmosphere. The problem was its writing. When it comes to the more recent titles, I have trouble finding a particular atmosphere in it. It's in Boston, but there's nothing quite original about it. Places have the names of real places, but...

Caesar had plenty of Gaul auxiliaries and allied tribes though. It wasn't a united "nation" as we perceive it today. Several Gauls took the decision to support Rome before the invasion even began. Same for Celts, who called Caesar for help when they were fighting with the germanic tribes. I'm...

I couldn't help much for an essay, sorry. From what I remember, I think that Walpknut is right, it would basically be a structure like this: Introduction (quote, question), thesis (you advance your answer), antithesis (you confront its limits, basically punch it with counter arguments to see how...

New Vegas is more recent than Fallout 3. It is not loved by many here because of Nostalgia. Nobody here denies that Bethesda managed to extend the market (even though, the market extended itself since the 90's. If anything, Bethesda is also lucky to have survived its downfall after Daggerfall...

True, can't say I remember this movement. I don't remember him using kick or throw attacks either.

Oh, that reminds me, I recently heard about a mod that fixes that horrible moment, by replacing the stupid kid with a very dead skeleton : https://www.nexusmods.com/fallout4/mods/21857 I'm thinking about something else, since I've been trying to learn the FO4Edit to simply delete the Cabot...

I'll take a look. When it comes to movie reviews and analysis, I can recommend Ryan Hollinger : https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCphlppLaedKn0BgXAszs5dQ
