Bethesda can publish some good games.

As long as it isn't actually Bethesda making the game, because those never turn out good at launch. Or ever, without modding communities.

Paradox Interactive is a saint-like video game publisher, and I'm not even a Swede. EA's Sim City franchise can kneel before the artifact that is regarded as Cities: Skylines. Crusader Kings II is also a pretty nice medieval Sims game too.

Until you go and take a good look at all the DLCs that they made recently that make them almost identical to EA. It's quite funny how you took EA as an example, since the DLC milking they started doing in the last year is almost through the fucking roof, and that's coming from me - an avid PI fan.

I've never played a good Bethesda game in my life. Every single one was dogshit at best. I really don't understand the hype for any of the games they make.

Morrowind is an amazing game, and Oblivion and Skyrim to a lesser extent as well.

The games are decent by themselves, but the real magic comes into play when you start modding.

Skyrim is okay at best while Fallout 4 is probably the worst game I've ever played in its entirety.

As a rule, mainstream games continually get shitter as they get dumbed for the plebs. It takes either takes an altruistic or niche game developer to make a good game rather than cashing in the moneys by "appealing to a wider audience".

But if you haven't played Morrowind you're missing out on a great experience. IMO it is one of the best RPGs ever made. Its engine is so much simpler, yet the game is so much more immersive and engaging. Just like games like Vampire the Masquerade and Dues Ex that I keep shilling for.

And also, I refuse to buy any of the new politically correct games like the new TF clones. Fuck women characters, fuck nigger characters, I'm not gonna buy it unless the majority is straight white males. And I know I sound hilariously like the strawman stereotype perpetuated by feminists, but it's because I'm so sick of progressive BS in video games that I absolutely zero tolerance for it.

You've probably never heard of Naughty Dog or CD Projekt, or maybe you hate their games too.

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and The Walking Dead: Season One are good examples. They both have a black protagonist, and they tell a well-developed story that doesn't reek of PC. One thing minority activists don't seem to notice in games, is that in real life terms, such as population, they are the minority. Video games, in an attempt to emulate reality, has to portray the minority as a minority.

On a sidenote, I also hate Overwatch, for a different reason. Even after I paid 60 fucking bucks for the game, the game still asks me to pay for new skins in micro-transactions. Just make it a "freemium" game like TF2, or pay-once, play-forever game like what Payday 2 used to be.

Don't use “thought” verbs too much: thinks, understands, loves, hates, and a hundred others. Instead of characters knowing, present the details that allow the reader to know them. Instead of a character wanting something, describe the thing so that the reader wants it. Only specific sensory detail: smell, taste, and sound.

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT

I don't mind as long as minorities are not pushed in simply for PC reasons.

I mean, look at anything these days, like a government ad - you will NEVER see all white kids even if they are the majority. The thing that really gets me, is why are only Whites not allowed and in group preference? Any other race can have race exclusive clubs, race exclusive countries, and no one bats an eye. If whites do it, they are EVIL NAZIS. The Nigger king in Africa can kick out white farmers, nationalise white businesses, no one cares. If a European country did that? WORLD WAR FUCKING 3. And what do you think happens when you have your shitty minority groups all voting for their slanty eyed/shit skinned brethren whilst you have all the whites either not caring about race or voting for the kebab or nigger to show their lefty friends how progressive the are? I'm gonna leave that one rhetorical because I think you can figure it out.

Yes that's not related to anything -> I'm just ranting because I've had far too much coffee.

Re: ITT: Pretend we are still writing in osu! OT

I don't get the fucking hype of Overwatch for shit. Even if it is different than TF2, like you said Ambi, it asks me to both buy it at a VERY steep price (it dares compare itself to GTA5 in terms of price) and then dares to pull the same shit off as LoL.

I mean pick one fucking thing - either free to play with microtrans or high cost with no microtrans at all, you can't do both.

Overwatch is basically TF2, except with butts and s l o w e r.
