It’s hard to plan a game where the player has to fail to advance the plot. Either the player will level themselves up to the point where they can break the game at the point(s) they’re supposed to fail (and advance the plot), or they will throw their hands up in disgust just before the game reveals it was planned.

I wouldn’t call it great. Good, for sure and a good ending to the trilogy, but it’s deeply flawed and doesn’t really work on its own.

I think you forgot what character you’re playing as. Batman rarely ever act out his emotions and I don’t know why you or anyone needs anything more than the Joker to flat out tell the player how Batman is feeling. He doesn’t interact with the Joker because that’s what the Joker wants.

Fair, but I didn’t really have time to talk about them all.

That’s actually an interesting point. Batman is kinda OP in that sense.

Yeah, but he still just keeps on doing whatever. In the end Batman isn’t phased by it.

The problem with comparing fan projects to official development is that the former enjoys several significant advantages over the latter, the biggest of which are 1) they don’t necessarily cost anything to make and 2) the people making them have unlimited time.

Everyone agrees that the story of NV was better.

Male bonding will forever be an elusive mystery to women. Much as female bathroom time is to men. Yes I’m making all of this up. Kind of.

I think it was refreshing. Especially after the patch of the demo. There are great scenes of bonding which probably many males experienced in this way and I have never really seen in games like that.

how are they more believable than the boy band. now they are a j-rock girl band

“Look at most characters in games, the men and especially the women are generally the same build each time. That is not how people look.”

No I wouldn’t. Like, I understand that my opinion is quite selfish and all that, and that what to me comes as good looking doesn’t have to come the same way to everyone, but I never said it should.

I’ll tell you why that is for me. ‘cause I don’t wanna play video games with not-as-good looking people, be it male or female. I just don’t. The same way I wouldn’t hang an ugly painting in my bedroom. It’s not aesthetically pleasing. They’re not real people, they’d don’t have to have the issues I have. I don’t wanna…

Whoa, I thought that body type was completely unrealistic??? Somebody add more weight to them to make everyone more comfortable!

No, it’s incredibly versatile in defense and viable for end-game usage. It’s just not top pick for poison resistance or something similar.

This will be shut down by Kuntnami, of course... Because, obviously, they are in the business of being asshole douchebags now.

I don’t see Grandia II, Final Fantasy IV, and Secret of Mana here. Your list is officially rejected:

Fuck you, Konami. Seriously.

Edit: What I mean is, if someone fucks Konami, be sure to be super serious about it; no nansy-pansy teasing foreplay nonsense, keep a straight face and drive it home.
