Is that why all of the Spilcers looked like they were made out of play-doh in my game once?wouldyoukindly99 said:
Has something happened to you in a game that broke the immersion?

holy shit yes. the ONE TIME i didn't have a decent save was when i was in a huge ass cave and i got stuck like airtight inbetween a huge rock constellation, i was constantly falling so i had a upward superman pose but couldn't seem to jump out at all...took me a good 45 minutes to be able to do a turning crouch double jump just right...grimsprice said:
A better question would be if you've ever played a game that didn't break the immersion in some way or another.
God yes. I don't feel like I'm even playing the game anymore. Quick time events make me feel like I'm pressing a button in an elevator. Sure, the elevator is going where I want, but I had nothing to do with it apart from pressing that button. And that's fine in an elevator. You use those things to get someplace. But games are about the journey AND the destination, and QTEs take out all the journey.BillyShakes said:
That is probably why, sometimes the game has trouble loading textures when you play for extended periods of time.Internet Kraken said:
Or you were in the Fort Frolic section where a lot of the splicers are covered in molding clay, thanks to Sander Cohen.
Playing Fallout 3, and then my controller dies and the screen pops up for me to stop being such a fuck and change out the batteries.
Also, dying kind of kills immersion!
Soldier: "Oh no! Our best and alast chance for survival just had his headblown off!"
Hero: *Rises like Jesus* "Never you fear! The checkpoint was near!"
Soldier: "Hallelujiah! God bless us, everyone!"
*Curtains close as everyone bows*

haha for some odd reason when i was turning my foot would "touch ground" in a certain spot so that was the one chance i had at gettin out of the infinite falling, so i had to time it right and jump and then jump on the top edge of the rock to get outgrimsprice said:

i remember trying to find some of those parts...holy crap it was NO WHERE near the indicator, the AI was obviously drunk and crazy eyed when mapping that part
hmm now that i htink of it, anytime im playing a game where you are gunning and runnign away from something massive, such as a boss, and you get caught on NOTHING, but apparently there is a massive invisible corner sticking up out of the ground that holds onto you until you die.
No, a Sniper rifle. I think it fell out of the map, since the area it told me to look in was a small nook behind a hut. One that I could easily get myself stuck in.grimsprice said:
When your in a RPG and you get jumped by 5 bandits inside a store.
After fight merchant just says "Want to see my wares?!"

Any game where if you try to sneak around but get spotted by one gaurd/soldier EVERYONE INSTANTLY knows where you are at all times until they are all dead or you are
or the telescopic x-ray visions enemis have in games like Far Cry 2.
or Scrolling text that is full of nothing but "Weathers nice ain't it duuuhhrrr" (old rpgs are notorious for this)
or Falling through the floor in a game (can be mildly amusing though)
Edit: Just to clarify... i mean falling through the floor that shouldn't have happened

Actually, heres all the parts from the entrance...Internet Kraken said:
1st. As you enter the area, to your upper right is a house hanging off a small cliff. Part is on a barrel/box out in front balcony.
2nd. Fallow the left wall until you start uphill. Stop. Look just at the base of the hill for a pile of scrap metal with a mattress on it.
3rd. Upper level. On a table in the back.
4th. Topity Top of the most topmost area, on top of the top most house.
BTW. When scavenging for gun parts. The way point does not show you the location of each part. It just takes you to the area.
A bandit in oblivion was running from me and set off a flail trap. He started bouncing around the room and when he finally stopped his limbs were distorted and he was just floating there like a puppet. Immersion breaking? Yes. Awesome? Yes.spike0918 said:
That makes me so mad, but even worse is that (I'm not sure if this is a typical occurance or if mine is just cursed) sometimes when I look to the horizon I suddenly see hundreds of flashing seizure lights that replace the skyline and just sort of fly all over the screen. It looks bad and I do everything in my power to avoid looking at it because it just looks so mechanical.miracleofsound said:
