The names are terrible too. Bravely default was decently enjoyable but octopath traveller being stupidly expensive and not very enjoyable after trying it has made me not bother with every other game name printed in that title template.
I don’t think logo design is enough to claim they have lost their “soul”. Aren’t Bravely Default, Octoparh Traveler, and Triangle Strategy pretty well liked and reviewed? And have some cool innovations on narrative and mechanics?
I won’t say that the logo design and naming convention isn’t off-putting, but it only reflects a current style, not the games themselves.
In 1980, he was murdered by a Christian fan of the Beatles, Mark David Chapman, who later cited Lennon’s quote as one of his possible motives in the killing.
I get where you’re coming from, but ads don’t just want people talking, they want to turn people into buyers.
After the success of the PS2, virtually their entire market knew about the PS3. But even with those weird ads and their previous massive success with the PS2, the PS3 was selling terribly poorly around the time of the baby ad, IIRC.
Yeah, I’m not sure who kicked it off but the Nintendo, Sega wars in the 80s kind of started with the quirky ‘edgy’ crap and that carried over into the PS/Xbox era. The Nintendo power mags had some seriously nonsense ads and the tv commercials kind of ran the gambit. A lot of ‘we’re gamers, parents just wouldn’t understand’ type ads. Here’s one that even teen me was like ‘wtf?’ www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-qBkWerZDg
Open world RPG’s like Bannerlord or Skyrim will be “real” alternative reality. Just think, today you can chit-chat in Bannerlord with general NPC. Tomorrow you can get radiant quest from giver by talking to Jarls. In future you can find secret quests and spell-check your way around in Fallout.
I remember being irritated about this in Falllout 3, but even more so that every person pre-war from the poorest child to the most exalted CEOs hoarded bottle caps and stuffed them into every ready container. Almost like they knew I’d need the cash decades later.
The Bethesda fallout games take place 200 years after the Great War.
Imagine walking around America today and someone has the Skelton of a revolutionary war soldier in their half burnt house. Or finding a flintlock from 1760 in someone’s desk and it’s in mint condition. That’s what every Bethesda game has
Honestly, I wrote 200 years initially then couldn’t remember if they were actually that dumb, second guessed myself, and hedged on “decades.”
But yes, realizing that many places in America would have been uninhabited wilderness 200 years before today, the idea that major metro areas would still be untouched ruins 200 years after the war is just ludicrous.
I just put all this stuff in the same “ignore it for the gameplay” box as torches still being lit in ancient tombs and backwoods merchants accepting 1000 year old gold coins as currency for buying beef jerky or magic shields or whatever.
Lol yes…yes I do! I didn’t know it was banned because it was played quite a bit on whatever I used to watch. Man I want to say G4 but I’m not sure the time lines work out.
