@xbob42: Skyrim is not a reflex shooter, that’s the exact opposite of the way the game is intended to be played. It’s basically a first person CRPG. You don’t need to be good at games to be successful in Skyrim. You level up your weapons skills so they do more damage. That’s it. The act of swinging them is largely superfluous. You don’t have to be good at swinging it, you have to be good at leveling it. That’s the style of RPG it is. They want you to have to level up your skills, not just be able to run out and kill anything on day one because you have good hand-eye coordination. If it’s not for you, that’s cool, the game isn’t for you, but the game series doesn’t need to change to suit your play style. There are plenty of games that require the player to be skilled to succeed.
@deadstar: “Blizzard is trash now. I hope they sell off their ip. What a slap in the face. This should have been so much better. Warcraft 3 is one of the best games of all time.“
@omatictoast: none of the real scripted humor has even been funny in Borderlands. However, the combat barks are okay sometimes. “My chili recipe dies with me” is dumb enough to be borderline amusing.
It’s sad to see so many begging off because they saw poor performance in this video. The game is what the game is (I have been playing it for a week and think it’s great), but I have yet to see a single slowdown on Xbonex, and I have it set to favor graphical fidelity over frames.
The general consensus (that I also agree with) is that Season three starts off kinda not great but really picks up by episode three or four. Urethra Hawke’s (yeah, that’s what I’m calling them and I’m not sure why the celeb mags never picked it up) daughter is pretty great, and by the end of the season the only character I didn’t genuinely like was the sassy little sister.
The people who keep saying “I don’t get the whole Russian thing” and thought it was tacked on nonsense should consider themselves lucky to have not lived through the 70’s and 80’s and have no context for “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall.” Everyone thought (and was obviously correct) that Russians were the source of all of society’s ills and everyone knew they had secret underground bases everywhere. Then River Phoenix found a Russian sub, realized his parents were sleeper spies, and long story short, he’s not alive anymore, is he?
I’ve watched about a hundred episodes of this and I’m starting to doubt that this Gerstbagg guy is really a pro skater. I don’t think he could 540 rhinoslide his way out of a paper half pipe.
