but ultimately, its just going to be citizen kane getting low sales

2019-01-03 23:25:31 UTC  

well i think the story and games as art arguments collide at some point

2019-01-03 23:25:32 UTC  

the issue with movies

2019-01-03 23:25:58 UTC  

if they want it to be art *more* i would assume theyll add more story

2019-01-03 23:26:07 UTC  

PS i dont play Metal Gear Solid i dont like it

2019-01-03 23:26:08 UTC  

if it's made with the intent to be art it's really hard to say it's not

2019-01-03 23:26:31 UTC  

unless it's gay

2019-01-03 23:26:34 UTC  

bullet art is bliss

2019-01-03 23:26:47 UTC  

thats how you make the art the gameplay itself

2019-01-03 23:28:42 UTC  

Meh, games aren't art. Some are, but not all

2019-01-03 23:28:57 UTC  

I know, lets add intrusive story, that has inconsistent art and animation, and bad voice acting

2019-01-03 23:29:03 UTC  

but hey, it's skippable

2019-01-03 23:29:30 UTC  

but there's still a loading bar in between cut scenes

2019-01-03 23:29:34 UTC  

which you can't skip

2019-01-03 23:29:45 UTC  

but o well, games are resource intensive nowadays

2019-01-03 23:30:35 UTC  

i dont think almost any game needs voice dialog

2019-01-03 23:30:45 UTC  

grunts and deathscreams only

2019-01-03 23:32:17 UTC  

i dont mind something like the PA reading announcements when you walk through a hall

2019-01-03 23:32:28 UTC  

thats a good way to inject story, real passive

2019-01-03 23:33:59 UTC  

i dont mind voice acting, just make it good and consistent with what is occurring in the game

2019-01-03 23:34:17 UTC  

Totally non-controversial statement: Borderlands is the best game series ever.

2019-01-03 23:34:29 UTC  

eg. Don't have them say "Did you bring that thing I told you to get? You better have it."

2019-01-03 23:34:39 UTC  

borderlands gameplay sucks ass and the art is amazing

2019-01-03 23:34:41 UTC  

like you have to go through that line before delivering quest item

2019-01-03 23:34:58 UTC  

well gameplay should come before art always

2019-01-03 23:35:07 UTC  

What's wrong with the gameplay?

2019-01-03 23:35:11 UTC  

i think VA is a waste of money tbh because im then getting less gameplay

2019-01-03 23:35:27 UTC  

in fact hiring an actual writer is a needless expenditure

2019-01-03 23:35:35 UTC  

Borderlands 1 was best, to clarify. The pre-sequel was annoying due to annoying Australian accents.

2019-01-03 23:35:35 UTC  

@SarahCorriher it feels like its on rails

2019-01-03 23:35:49 UTC  

i only have 2 i think

2019-01-03 23:36:00 UTC

2019-01-03 23:36:54 UTC

2019-01-03 23:36:58 UTC

2019-01-03 23:37:27 UTC

2019-01-03 23:38:03 UTC
