Forgive me for not reading the thread if this was already discussed, but did anyone else feel like the ending was a waste?

Have somebody play ep1 until they find clementine, then ask them how they think the season will end. I guarantee they'll say 1) Everybody dies, or 2) Clementine has to kill Lee.

It was an emotional ending and kind of closed the loop on that whole relationship, which is obviously why it was chosen, but I feel like it's the easy way to satisfy your audience. If this was a movie story, people would be complaining that it was the easy way out, and that it didn't comment on anything that the rest of the season didn't already hammer to death - namely, that it's sad when people you love die. Since this is a video game, however, people are way more accepting of such a cheap ending.

@Hamst3r: Thanks, that should work for the time being. It's odd that I can't find a program that will do this easily, though. There's an iOS app called BaM video delay that does what I want, but I would like it to be PC based.

Found one! There's one called Kinovea for windows and Live Video Delay for mac. They both do video delay.

I would rather just have it constantly previewing on a delay instead of recording. Recording has it's place, but when I'm taking 20-30 turns a practice, recording and reviewing becomes a hassle.

So I'm a gymnast and I'm looking for some software that will take the input from a webcam and delay it 30 or so seconds, so that I can take a turn and look at what I did afterwards. Anyone have any ideas?

Die Hard

The only thing I disagreed about was mentioned already as a statement someone agreed with.

"Fez is pretty and ingenious but it’s not exactly Proust. It’s not even JK Rowling."

But Fez is at least J.K. Rowling, if we're going to put Rowling and Proust on the same scale of "artfulness 1-10."

I found that quote funny because, from how the story reads, she didn't get to any of the meat of Fez. It seems as if she put it in, noticed it was a pretty little platformer, then turned it off. You guys are arguing as if she received a deep, meaningful gameplay experience from Fez and based her story on that, when that really isn't the case.

I don't have the patience to fully explore every article and your blog, but I would just like to mention how hilarious it is to read her thoughts on Fez.

As you already played Planescape, I might suggest Anachronox, Mask of the Betrayer (you'll need NWN 2 to play it), Arcanum and Temple of Elemental Evil (probably not that story heavy, but a really good turn-based tactical RPG)...

Anachronox actually looks pretty cool. I'm digging the atmosphere, just not sure if I'll enjoy playing it or not. Either way, I'm gonna give it a try.

Thanks a ton for the suggestions, guys! You saved my Sunday. :D

Definitely would go for Witcher series, Sacred Gold/Sacred2 Fallen Angel, Stalker, Vampire the Masquerade Bloodlines & Skyrim. If you want a slightly better than average rpg with a ton of length to it, try Two Worlds2. Insanely amount of things to do in Sacred2 & Two Worlds2, if you go in without expecting a great game but want a bunch of things to do, those two are worth it & cheap now to get.

I don't just want a time waster though, I want something to get into. =P Stalker is cool but not an RPG, and I don't like vampires.

@fang273: KoTOR I&II, Jade Empire, Dungeon Siege I&II (although I never played 2), Freedom Force, uhhh... Man, honestly, you're gonna have to wait for Wasteland 2 and Shadowrun Returns and Banner Saga and Project Eternity.

That's what it's starting to feel like. =/
