Re: [Official!] Project Horizons Comment Crew Chat thread.

Did I seem to imply my only problem with the game was voice acting, or did my reading comprehension failed me and this was the only thing we were supposed to be talking about?

[Guest]

I guess I could try responding again.

Well, sure.

I still doubt they'll ever be able to ship a complete product.

Of course not, it's not a product. Or at least not what I would define as a product, I doubt they'll be selling it. There's no legal channels for them to do so. I think the word you're looking for is experience.

Plus, they seem to be following the original FoE story, and have you start as Littlepip, using a gameplay system (I assume they're using some sort of hacked SPECIAL system?) that's meant for people to have as much choice of build and option to deal with probems as is possible.

Basically trying to tell a linear story with a sandbox framework.

What indication was there that they weren't going to be following that story? Even if it was never explicitly stated I was always under the impression that was the implication.

Not sure why you would be skeptical. Games like GTA and Saint's Row exist in a sandbox, and their stories are pretty linear. You can go to C first instead of B but in my experience with those games it almost never makes B into a D because of that choice. You can still have exploration and some of the other things that make a fallout game even with a linear story.

I don't disagree with you, I think expansive levels instead of an openworld would be easier for the people working on it and ultimately make for a more focused experience. But this is fallout, a gray landscape of dirt, debris and crumbled buildings. In fallout 3 I never found the overworld very impressive.

'green armor':

Melonception.

[Vinylshadow]

Green, yes

Armor?



Although female fantasy armor seems to run on "More skin, higher defense" logic

Oh hey, Big Zam:

@Vinyl

That's why I put both 'green' and 'armor' in quotes.

But yeah, in most fantasy games armored bikini is must have for most female characters.

She should class change to some sort of spell caster. The arrows will still penetrate her cloth armor but you know at least she's covered.

[Vinylshadow]

Don't worry, they only did one damage

Yep...even the one to the heart

Somehow...because screw logic

Don't try this at home:

Lol.

I thought something like this

OH Zabuza...how you amuse us by being a tank


...did you just call Princess Celestia fat?

There's a special place in Tartarus for ponies like you:

Definitely one of my favorite pieces with Celestia showing off her Godhood

Some places I usually lurk on the net are on fire right now. Low visibility on facts. Many accusations. Keyword: SJWs

[Harmony Ltd.]

You mean the whole Zoe fiasco?

Funny thing from what I get, is that the gal is pretty much a sociopath, but people are falling in order to support her because... "girl gamer"? I dunno.

Anyway, it all shows how toxic and inbred a large portion of the gaming industry has become for long while now.

[OneMoreDaySK]

Again, low visibility. Not too many primary sources, other than her side and her ex's. Really doesn't help that some of the accusations of death threats are true, considering that this is the internet. The most reasonable response that I have seen that wasn't mod-censored was TB's and since it is still standing, it has drawn much criticism. Also a lot of laughing from the commenters on a Phil Fish. Made some game called Fez?

[Valikdu]

Funny thing from what I get, is that the gal is pretty much a sociopath, but people are falling in order to support her because... "girl gamer"? I dunno.

The "gaming journalism" websites are definitely doing it just to get more ad revenue. They care not from whence it comes, just that it does.

[Vinylshadow]

That explains why I have to run a virus scan every time I visit those wesites

[Katarn]

Just sundae icecream :

[Katarn]

this kind of ice cream:

[Vinylshadow]

Well, I'm sure she's been asked to seductively lick an ice cream cone once or twice to help boost sales

[Katarn]

do you mind?:

[Vinylshadow]

If animals get to watch you do unspeakable things, like making out with your special somepony, I don't see why you can't return the favor

ANYWAY...

[iLateralGX]

On the topic of Five Nights at Freddy's, it looks like the Grumps may do something on that soon. Ross has about an hour and a half of playtime on the game on his steam account which is about the average game grumps session. So if they are up your alley and you are willing to wait a few days there ya go.

[OneMoreDaySK]

@swicked
<a href="http://www.twitlonger.com/show/n_1s4nmr1">TotalBiscuit's twitlonger</a> on the situation. Following that is a lot of mugslinging from both sides, with sites and devs being divided along pro / anti lines.

[Harmony Ltd.]

Alternatively this guy's made some interesting summaries of the affair in the past few days, if you care to dig through his posts on the subject.

[Ironmonger]

wat:

[OneMoreDaySK]

Problem is that many sites trying to discuss this get shut down by mods. <a href="https://i.imgur.com/VumL9nK.png">This</a> is a good picture indicating the level of censoring of the mods.

[Vinylshadow]

Am I the only one who doesn't care who develops a game, so long as its good?

[OneMoreDaySK]

I care if something is compromising journalistic integrity. Do not care that she made a game. Do not care that she sleeps around. That is her business. However it is exactly who she sleeps with that is the problem. In a government position, this is the exact PR nightmare that workers are taught to avoid. Does not matter if you do or not, if it seems like you are trading sex for favors, is nightmare enough. Trying to censor everything does not help.
