So I'm normally a total pansy when it comes to horror games but this doesn't really have the same impact that Amnesia, Slender, or even Doom 3 had on me. I think it mostly has to do with the fact that things staring at me isn't as unsettling as an unseen threat. What made me literally unable to...

Magic in Oblivion was more convenient if nothing else. The ability to create your own spells with multiple effects meant that you could combo your Shield spells with your Resist spells with one spell cast rather than having to constantly cycle through whatever Cloak/Skin/Light spells in Skyrim...

Here's the kicker: not everyone plays RPGs to develop their character. Pretty much every single "progression" raider in WoW couldn't care less about his character or the story or overcoming challenges. World first guilds in WoW spend hours and hours in Betas and PTRs putting in attempts at...

Lor'Themar if for no other reason than for him to do something. Maiev. Seriously, I can think of few better "assassins" in the Blizzard lore. Certainly better suited to the role than Raynor. When they run out of story-significant characters to put out, Gamon. Murloc Warleader. He...

Had a quick jaunt through my reddit post history to find this; reading stuff you don't remember writing months ago is weird. I had almost forgotten this when the reddit thread popped up the first time; I got mildly annoyed again remembering the frustration. I had forgotten this when...

Most importantly, better gunplay. Make INT less OP (Seriously, INT needs a tremendous nerf) Make CHA increase the number of followers you can have. More speech options in general, FO:NV did a decent job of this. Return of gambling. I probably spent at least 10 hours in NV just playing cards...

Somewhere between 8000-9000 hours in WoW over the course of 7 years. The prospect that I spent +-1/7 of all of that time logged in is somewhat terrifying.

I hated this "choice." It made no sense and more often than not just sat uncompleted until I got a mod to fix it. It made NO sense to me that Delphine or Esbern should have any kind of authority over you. Even if they do, I feel like they should have the common sense to realize that your...

New Vegas improves upon Fallout 3 on a lot of fronts, primarily those associated with storytelling and gameplay. New Vegas is decidedly the truer sequel to Fallout 1/2 because of all of the lore-mongering that went on in FO3 as well as New Vegas' better understanding of the reference material...

I miss the ones that were good. In Tribes: Ascend most of the US dedicated servers are ghost towns, because the auto-join a Hi-Rez server is super convenient. I miss meeting new people, far too many communities it seems have gone the route of "silent nothingness." Entirely preferable to the...

Witcher I/II The Elder Scrolls Series Jade Empire Mass Effect Series Vampire the Masquerade: (Redemption and Bloodlines) Borderlands Mount and Blade: Warband Fallout 3 / Fallout: New Vegas S.T.A.L.K.E.R. If you want to get into more RPG and less Action: Baldur's Gate Neverwinter...

Your last name is Majere? That's pretty kickass.

I'm more frustrated that I can't spare, or at least ignore enemies in Skyrim who say "Stop! I cannot best you!" because 10 seconds later they're insulting my mother and swinging a sword at me again.

So much this. I have trouble immersing myself in the world when it's so ridiculously over the top with the apocalypse stuff. It's been, what, 200+ years since the nuclear war in that game? And not a single damn clean surface in sight. I'm not asking for Pine-Sol'd floors, but damn at least clear...
