Went back to Alundra recently. I may also take a look at the copy of "FATE" I have on my computer.

hundley are you still playing oblivion? i started playing it, too. i never played that far into it, i always just skimmed the game because it seemed so flat and difficult to get into because it never felt like you were doing anything. i put some mods on it. it's better now.

gamers what game should I play? I think I'm done with new vegas. I went from liking it a lot, partially based upon the impression of the game I got from reading the stuff you guys posted here, to kinda hating it for loads of different reasons, back to kinda liking it again. the best part of the game is starting out with an interesting character, wandering around the desert, doing some early quests, meeting an arcade gamer death metal nerd in Nipton, and making your way to Freeside without doing too many side quests on the way there. freeside's got some of the best quests, but after that the game gets really boring (after freeside is when you find out how shallow and dull the world is). there are a lot of things the game does poorly and it kind of irritates me that it's as popular as it is despite being so buggy and unfinished and despite being published by Bethesda, who currently owns the franchise I think (meanwhile bloody good time feels like a totally complete and enjoyable game even though the publishers cut funding and essentially told Outerlight to go to hell) buy bloody good time already

any Game Historians present: is Obsidian known for setting their goals unreasonably high and failing to achieve them in time? I know NWN2 was released with lots of bugs and cut/unfinished content too. or is this just how the big league games are these days?

whenever i tried playing those games i felt like you but i ended up spending more time applying mods than playing the game

so i always gave up

i finally finished ghost trick the other day, and can safely say that missile is one of my favorite video game characters in YEARS.  that li'l dog has serious heart.  i finished ghost trick just in time to have it done before i got pokemon black, which is what i'm playing now (but i had a busy day yesterday and will probably be pretty busy today so i'm not too far into it yet!!!)

yeah, pretty much. they're really talented guys, but seem to have this knack of fucking everything up. i was afraid new vegas would leave me with this immense COULD HAVE BEEN BETTER feeling, but they just narrowly missed that i think.

hundley are you still playing oblivion? i started playing it, too. i never played that far into it, i always just skimmed the game because it seemed so flat and difficult to get into because it never felt like you were doing anything. i put some mods on it. it's better now.
yeah, i'm still playing it off and on. kinda wish i could suggest great things to see in it, but there isn't a whole lot to do in the game that is really particularly worthwhile.

still, you should definitely play the dark brotherhood questline FIRST. that's pretty much the consensus BEST PARTS OF THE GAME even though it isn't really all that great. shivering isles is also kinda cool if you have it. haven't been able to find much else in the game that is all that fun, though.

I quit playing fallout 3 because I hit the lvl 30 cap and since I can't level up anymore wondering around has lost its humor and I don't want to beat the game anymore because I know whats going to happen. Is that brotherhood of steel expansion any good? I heard you do some campaign thing for it after you beat the game, should I play to get to it or is it a waste of time?

I started playin red dead redemption because I've never played it before and so far I like it. I like the western game idea but its so fucking hard to drive a horse.

fucking horses are stupid and have a bad turn ratio learn how to side step or somethin you fuckin horse. MY MOMS GOT TWO HORSES AND I CAN WATCH THEM WALK AROUND BETTER THAN YOU STUPID FUCKIN GAME HORSE.

Anybody who makes a game involving horses, but does not own any horses can only borrow experience from driving cars. And thus only make horse driving games as opposed to horse riding games.

It's pretty much expected in a horse game since game development and horse husbandry are disciplines that rarely ever cross over.
