Title: I can't stand these animu plots any longer
Post by: Himu on December 07, 2006, 12:15:33 AM
FFXII, SMT, Jade Empire, KOTOR, and Dragon Quarter have spoiled me.

I'm playing Tales of Abyss right now and I can't fucking stand it. It makes me want to rip my head open because of this animu bullshit. The intro itself is an embarassment.

Right now, I'm soaking in the story and these Japs create the most distinguished mentally-challenged shit. Lamledear, Hod War, blahblbhalahblah. What the hell is that clap trap and why doesn't the game set it up so I atleast have an incentive to care?

Ugh. Maf, buddy, does VP2 have this bullshit?

IF by bullshit you mean any story at all, yes it has story.

I wish more RPGS used a political story as opposed to a save the world one nowadays

I just wanna point out some things:

HRM LOOKS LIKE ANIMU SHIT AS U SAY!

Back of the box:

Quote
"Luke fon Fabre, sole heir to a family of aristocrats, has led a sheltered life...etc etc.... luke is caught in the inner workings of the Order of Lorelei, keepers of the prophecy known as the Score....etcetc..."

All of this is within plain sight. You not seeing it coming just proves you shouldn't be allowed to buy games and comment on the results.

Jade Empire was pretty crap for plot and writing as well as gameplay. Just sayin' is all.

Jade Empire is the game bioware doesnt like to talk about. Most Bioware games dont have OGM OMG OMG stories, just a LOT of "good" story.

But Tales games are fun. :(  Symphonia wasn't this bad.

Do some research next time.

Symphonia was far far worse.

Wow. I was just going to say, Symphonia was mind numblingly bad.

What a shame, because the combat was fun.

Symphonia was fun in combat, although Abyss does that combat system far better still. Symphonia gets the nod for graphics fidelity and little else.

Legendia is pretty shit too. Really, the tales series has been a big miss lately.

So when are you going to feel sick of all those sci-fi shooter plots? They're all as unique and varied as snowflakes?

Don't blame the whole medium when it's the creators that suck.

How is Jade Empire any different? From where I am it is following the same course.

You are the last remaining Spirit Monk... fulfill your destiny...

And these japabitches have the nerve to critisize American games for having space marines and shit. Fuck them and their pilot aspiring heroes, amnesiac princesses, and transgendered villians

I don't see how.
Title: Re: I can't stand these animu plots any longer
Post by: MrAngryFace on December 07, 2006, 10:43:05 AM
Oh I think every administrator ive talked to can see how.

FIRST you channel diablos/melissa in a grand exit of this forum over how people dont agree with you about zelda, and drinky trolls you. THEN you come back all melissa/diablos style saying the internet sux tell me where else I could go, THEN almost every post you create is some big soppy pussy post where you bitch like a little girl.
Title: Re: I can't stand these animu plots any longer
Post by: Himu on December 07, 2006, 10:45:38 AM
Huh? It had nothing to do with Zelda!  :lol

And unlike Melissa/Diablos, I had no other place to go. I went to OA, and it was shit stank. I couldn't stand it so I came back.

And every administrator? The only other admin here is Willco!  :lol

Who gives a fuck about plots? Decent writing is gravy.
