Shadows of Mordor

Speaking of which : I hate games where its impossible to lose like Shadow ...
Sometimes its countered by the game overall awesomnes like in GTA 5, but more often it totally ruins the game for me :/

EU4 and following GUTTING Hearts of Iron recieved from the hands of Paradox makes me very very weary and not-hyped for that game ..

Srsly, 2-3 years back i would wet my pants at the prospect of playing Paradox space 4x, now its just "meh, its gonna be dumbed down, casual shit like Sid Meier Starships".

I hope im right, god damned i hope ..

Rougelike RPG ala Skyrim - none of this "Here is a dungeon, down there is a dragon, kill it" , i mean the game where you can travel the open world, do multiple quests, craft shit, build buildings, get married, etc etc.

Does such thing even exists ??

Elona

I've played it but i meant something little more .. western, classical and without mixed fantasy/sf settings.

BTW - you can get married in Elona ? I knew about sleeping with many NPC but getting married ?

As for rougelike with Imperial Guards, there was a Warp Rouge - shame its nowhere to be found anymore because developer stopped working on it

Sniper rifles in shooters. Any, really. They're not particularly counterable (since you don't know about the shooter 'til you're dead), and they're not that fun to play unless you like point and click adventures. On top of that more is when they're effective at every range, so long as RoF isn't a problem.

They are very much counterable ( if a game is properly designed ). Smoke grenades, flanking, supressing fire, artillery, vehicles, teamwork, countersniping etc.

Examples of this happening?

Each and every critic of Final Fantasy X-2 and girls uniforms for example.
Applying Earth standarts for nudity and revealing clothing to a fictional universe as Spira is just stupid.

I can think of it happening a few times with things other than sex/nudity: the epic and ongoing SJW rage over the lack of black people in a certain popular RPG series inspired by the history of a country with almost literally no black people,

Whats the name of RPG ??
And you can always count on SJW to provide some epic butthurt.
But that being said, lack of black people is pretty stupid - its not some magical creature, its just human with certain melatonine count so if universe resembles Earth in any way ( round planet, equatorial inhabited regions etc ) it should have black people in some form.

Being unable to make your whole appearance match a single piece of armor you're wearing.

It irritates me a lot.

It's all well and good if you have tons of "varied loot" but no one (well some people do but we don't talk about them.) wants to be the great Rainbow Knight, wearing silk pants and plated boots with a bone breastplate while also wearing an artifact turtle shell helmet.

A little offsoot of that :

I hate when best ( in term of abilities/attributes ) gear looks worse than some middle or even low level gear and the game lacks any system of crafting things that look certain way and have high end qualities.

And :

Gaming reviewers Pet Peeves -

I hate when someone talking about game, applies the same Earth standarts for nudity, sex etc to any fictional universe and makes it into a game flaw.

SJW, manginas and feminiazis that are starting to infest my dear hobby.

What a very subtle parody! The misspelling was a particularly nice touch.

Yeah, I can't even tell if this is serious or unfunny satire.

I think it's a joke because if it were serious they would work in "cuck" somehow.

Why would i joke ??

I cant go a single day without entering some game site and finding articles about how frauds like Wu or Sarkeesian were "triggered" by some busty girl or short skirt or whatever, how they bitch and moan about everything that does not pander to their every insecurity etc.
I cant go a single day without SJW calling me a rapist, neckbeard etc just because i dont agree with them and i dont find big tits offensive.

I dont find that funny at all.

After my survey ship played Cat and Mouse with bunch of alien ships in the system next door to my homeworld, he managed to escape and warn central command about the alien threat.
My strike fleet jumps into the system, flattens six alien ships without even a scratch ( just spent a LOT of counter missiles ) and jumps out.

Quick and clean - just how i like it.
