How is hating feminists equal to hating females? How? Yeah, maybe naming that skill as such wasn't the best idea but how is that hating females?

While I enjoyed Human Revolution very much and IMO it really shines in the story(-telling) department (without too many 'cameos' from the original), Yahtzee is going to tear it apart on the gameplay side. No firearm skills or any skills for that matter, cover-based shooting (though I'd argue it...

I think I'll go with Deus Ex HR's fully upgraded revolver that shoots explosive rounds fitted Serious Sam's techno-magic-regenerating-ammo-things for infinite ammo. One in each hand, of course. Then it's just a matter of getting my own accuracy aug and I can snipe with them from a mile away!

Hmm... An army of inFamous 2's Beasts. Nice, even one of them was nigh-indestructible. Nobody's going to stop me now!

I think it's because of the enormous, but IMO somewhat justifiable, fear of simplification. The general opinion (AFAIK) is that 'more is better' and the more options there are the more depth the game can have and hence, the better the game can be. So when an option is axed, some people will not...

It's pattern recognition and a bit of pessimism, simply put. Other games and their developers have used certain key phrases like 'catering a wider audience' and the resulting game's quality have been observed (by some) to suffer and this has happened numerous times, so when ME3 devs said that...

I think at this point that we have to agree to disagree. In my opinion TIM is ruthless in trying to find ways to make humanity stronger. Failures and human rights violations stay underground, successes are published and patented through front corpotations. Sure they are cruel and, for the lack...

That could be a case but it seems like The Illusive Man especially should know just how good Shepard is and realize that they would be looking to an early death by Shepard's hand, or Reaper's... tentacle... thing. Besides, a renegade Shepard would most likely leave Cerberus alone, if not...

I think ruthless rather than cruel is a better way to put it. He's a follower of whatever-it-takes ideology, not let's-hurt/kill-him-just-for-kicks ideology. Also, human superiority requires that there's a humanity that can be superior and a thing to be superior to. Which is why stopping a very...

I think putting Shepard against Cerberus is stupid, since TIM has no reason to give Shepard anything more on his/her plate than necessary if TIM wants Shepard to take care of the Reapers. Even with the paragon Shepard and especially with renegade Shepard. Unless of course TIM is kicked out of...

Actually it's maximum is 7/7 if you have all the DLC. But anyway, while I used melee somewhat in ME2, melee-centric class seems out of place to me. If there are long range weapons that work well, why bother with kickking, punching and stabbing the enemy to death when just shooting them is an...

But even Commander Shepard does so with modern weaponry and for all his/her cybernetics, his/her fists don't count as ones.

For Thief 2: http://forums.eidosgames.com/showthread.php?t=76531 and this for the DDfix http://www.ttlg.com/forums/showthread.php?t=121449 For Thief 1 I think it's about the same, but I'm not sure as I don't have it. OT: I think the classic RPG has pretty much died because: 1. Money has...

While I must admit that Shepard being on trial at the start makes sense, I had expected that to be at some other point of the game. Though granted, Reapers besieging Earth might have put a stop to that trial. I'm betting that the lllusive-Man-trying-to-kill-you thing is false though. He has...

As do I consider violence and conflict as parts of human nature. I may have seemed overly negative at war, but my point is that, in the end of the day, soldiers are still killing each other. They may do it with assault rifles from trenches, knives in the back area of barracks or from comfortable...
