Dude stops playing shitty game because its shitty. Seems about right.

Or maybe he's just an impotent non-gamer who can't handle a challenge. See above post ^

joystiq is a bunch of tards
1. the fishing game is easy as fuck if you actually go to the place marked on your map
2. if you fail it three times because you suck, the game GIVES you the fish
3. you never hafta touch the fishing game again
dipshit went to the fishing area adjacent to the quest giver which is for folks with a high level fishing skill, proceeded to self-pwn for an hour, and then blubbered off to the internet. we call this "fail" in the parlance of the interfag
If what Prole says is true, this Joystiq dude rivals Dean Takahashi and his Mass Effect gaffe
:duh :wtf :dur :dizzy :elephantIf what Prole says is true, this Joystiq dude rivals Dean Takahashi and his Mass Effect gaffe
The guy admits at the bottom of the article after his rant video that it's true, but he just couldn't continue because the game had "already broken his spirit."
Takahashi gave Mass Effect a horrible review and called it "Mass Defect" only to later find out that he hadn't bothered to use the talent points to level up any of his characters throughout the game.
So he somehow managed to finish the game with all his characters stuck at level 1 stats.
Whoops! :lol
How are reviewers that dense? I thought they were given a bunch of info with most review copies of stuff.
He didn't finish the game. A lot of game reviewers don't finish games, especially bad ones like Mass Effect.
wasn't prole a videogame "journalist" for a minute? :teehee
The tactical play is horrendous. That wasn’t so evident on the early Eden Prime level, but once you’re off in the missions to other planets, it becomes overwhelmingly bad. You feel like you’re fighting with extremely incapable soldiers.
You never run out of ammo. But you’re always shooting these solid mass bullets at the enemy. Every guns sounds and fires and behaves the same, whether it’s a shotgun or an assault rifle. Stupid. Then, when you’re shooting at a target, an orange box appears as the one and only place on that target where you can actually hit them with a mass bullet. That’s not even close to realistic, and counts as stupid No. 2. Then you can’t even tell if you’ve hit your target because your target just keeps coming at you or does not even flinch upon impact, whether their shields are up or down. That’s stupid no. 3. You get a red bar that shows exactly how many times you have to shoot the enemy in order to take them down, no matter whether you’re getting in the equivalent of head shots or toe shots. The grenades are equally stupid. They fly in straight lines like hockey pucks on ice until they hit something. That something will often keep running right at you and then blow you up.
The dumb thing about the way I played the game, as many pointed out, is that I didn’t make use of my Talent Points. I started the game doing so, but while on Feros, I didn’t pay attention to all the Talent Points I was accumulating after every encounter. Those points just sat there.

Some of you thought I just should have kept my mouth shut because I either didn't agree with you or didn't play the game in the way that you would hope. I would hope you realize that's a pretty anti-consumer way of looking at the issue.
