does the game get better?
C'mon Stoney, the gameplay in the first 25% has nothing on the gameplay from that point on. Yes you still sneak around past enemies and shoot/punch things and move ladders, but the level design and gameplay and combat variety is great after that point.
Gameplay-wise, I was fairly down on the game (as in, it was an 8/10 I don't get the big deal experience) until it hit 25% completion part around 5 hours in. Loved everything after that.
Obsidian should make better games :pacspit:maf

So, the game gets more fun when you get to the town.
-more varied environments, sorta!
-Bill is a bro! :rock

Then, you know, I may have also preordered the PS3 version of Diablo 3, because I have a problem. :fbm
Well yeah, it's an on-rails linear experience. That's what Naughty Dog makes. There's room in gaming for both open world stuff and linear games. Apples and Oranges and all that.
Play RDR next if you want an open world.

Yeah, but I think the setting/subject material is best served with an open world game. I'm not saying that on-rails linear experiences are inherently inferior (although as a matter of personal taste I prefer open-world games, but whatevs) just that for this sort of setting/story, an open world works better.
Also! Random number generator has spoken, and tomorrow's game is...
Analogue: A Hate Story :stahp
Difficulty will be "increased" in that you can't just go to the AH and kit out your dude in god tier shit, for sure.
Who did you waifu?

Haven't gotten to that point yet, "playing" this is gonna be a struggle as, well, you know, this isn't my kind of bag.*

So, Analogue is actually not terrible, just kind of embarrassing. It's really good to have on while you're browsing /fucking around, because you can "play" it every five minutes or whatever.

Just having fun wandering the desert, killing shit. Sort of like Moses, but with more guns and fewer Hebrews.

Excuse me, Feudal Korea! learn2visualnovel, newb.
I brought the law to Primm today. It wasn't the law they wanted, but it was the law they needed. A stern man named Meyers, unjustly imprisoned for ignoring some of the "formalities" of law, like paper work, or due process. He'll whip those fucking swine into shape, for sure.
Now I walk East, after those who shot me. I won't be needing to bring any law to Nipton. :holeup
Fallout New Vegas is one of my fav RPGs. I really liked the open ended sci-fi themed quests/main story, combat was pretty fun, and interesting locations to poke around. Maybe the main story beef between the NCR and Legion was somewhat overplayed and silly, but overall I liked it. Most of the DLC was pretty good too.
Also- was Alpha Protocol playable or just a big fucking mess?
:lawd @ that Mojave Express patch
Alpha Brotocol is AMAZING. If you are enjoying New Vegas, I recommend you give it a try. The gameplay is terrible (I just focused on stealth + judo), but the narrative branching is some serious double-next level 15-years-ahead of its time shit. It's < $5 almost all the time during Steam Sales.

Funny thing is that it probably would've been better received without the action gameplay. Walking Dead kinda cribbed a lot of the narrative gameplay and ideas.
Still, AP does interesting stuff where your play style affects the narrative. Definitely worth playing through multiple times, just play it on easy.
Considering how buggy and technologically unimpressive Walking Dead was it may as well have been an Obsidian game.

And considering how little your choices actually impacted the overall narrative, it may as well have been a Bioware game.

what's the difference between :dead and :deadpos
Yep, stealth/pistol is definitely the way to go in AP.
I thought you were playing your GAME backlog
I liked Honest Hearts more than Old World Blues as well. OWB was a fun 'dungeon romp' but it was a little too crazy to take seriously.
Did you get the DLC? I LOVED Honest Hearts, tho you're probably more of an Old World Blues guy.
Tried to play some Rise of the Triad. Reduced mouse sensitivity and picked the 2nd slowest character... still wanted to barf after like only 20 minutes. This is the only time I've ever gotten motion sickness from a game, including playing the old RotT when I was younger. Shit, I got old. :fbm
