The Quality of Gaming

For the past few weeks I've been hoping through some of the free games I've collected through PlayStation Plus, both on PS3 and Vita, and it's gotten me curious on what games have been interesting and what games have failed to grasp me as much.

To put it into perspective I am at the moment playing Beyond Good and Evil HD, and I am loving it. The story may be weak, the graphics are blocky and janky, the game play is occasionally buggy, but I am having so much fun. However not too long ago I bought Wolfenstein: The New Order and got a little bored, only completing the game because I paid for it.

So why is it that some of these newer games can't seem to grasp a player as much as the older ones? I'm surely not the only one that thinks this, but in the age of modern gaming with HD resolution and realism, you'd think they'd naturally feel better in immersion.

Thoughts?

(And by no means am I saying 'all' modern games bad)

Then why would we not remove the "Top" button?

@LegendBegins

Took me a bit to work out where you we're pointing to, but yes, the link isn't something that I'm guessing would be used a lot.

Sadly I only sleep 5-6 hours a night, and even then it's broken sleep. :P

We would also prefer to have about 8 hours extra in the day.

@Ellri

oh the things I could do if I didn't require sleep...

Not sure if this is a feature or a bug or if I should even be posting it here, but why does it say "posted 3 mins ago" when I just post something?

Something about time lag or another thing I don't understand?

@ClocktowerEchos

It also rounds up a bit. 31sec = 1min, 23hr 1min = 24hr ago, 6days 1min = 1week.

If these were my true colors I would be on the street doing graffiti. I am very displeased about the fact, that you think this was serious. As said before, sarcasm doesn't translate well to chat. But if you decide to leave for such a thing, I won't object. It is your decision to make, but I want you to reherse the old saying: "Don't judge a book by it's cover." In this case don't think that one post where I wanted back my old crew means that I am bad. Actually before I become a hipocryte by wanting you back, I will say the last thing. You know how humans react better to insults? Yeah now you know how it feels to be a GM.

@6slyboy6

Mate, firstly Pyxis never called his soldiers "shitface" or told them to say "fuck you" if they wanted to leave. That was a conscious decision on your part. You we're the one that decided to call your players by those names in the ooc, not ic, the out of character section.

We've also asked for other points of clarification to which we never got a clear or straight answer. All we got was hostility and smart arse responses. My interest was wavering when you posted up that post about you being the experienced gm. Inflating your own ego is never a good personal trait.

Hahaha. I have been a Gm multiple times. I know it can be a difficult job to which why I was willing to help you in the first place. GMing is a bit like management and I used to be an admin over at another, high traffic gfx site for two years. I never once called the members there "shitface" even while joking with them. Negativity breeds negativity, hostility breeds hostility, and eventually you may find that being presumptuous may not be the best personality trait.

@Catchphrase Nope, we're leaving. I have more self respect than to participate in an Rp where the gm swears at his members and degrades them in front of their colleagues. Even if it's sarcasm or a joke, it's a poor one at that.

ATTTEEEEEEENTIOOOOOOON!


(just the first 10 seconds)

Now that ya'll have my attention I will begin calling out your names:
@Zetsuko,@boomlover,@Flamelord,@RhineQueen,@datadogie,@Vocab

In the time of writing this message, almost all of you shitfaces were online, or have been online in the last 24 hours. That is expect inkwell. I do not make an RP to shit on it, and I expect you to respect it. If you wanna leave, at least fucking say so. And excuse my language, but now that midterms are over, none of you school kids have any real business to attend to. I expect you to at least say a "fuck you" in response, cause I don't want to end an RP by having it die off in a mere day. Now, all report in for duty!

And after reading this I am now bowing out of this Roleplay and taking my character with me. If these are your true colours, "@6slyboy6", then I have no business taking part in your Roleplay. Let's just say that the way you act on the internet is free for "Everyone" to see.

*Flamboyantly bows out*

Devil's Runners

@6slyboy6 still good to go for Friday being when we start the RP?
