The controversy over BioWare's decision regarding the sexual orientation of its characters reveals a compromise that leaves no one happy.
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!
The Fallout Anthology Edition is coming to PC very soon, and is packaged with some very S.P.E.C.I.A.L. bonuses.
It’s an awful downgrade to the last one they did
They included physical disc back then
I would love the classic fallout games on console. Closest I could find was atom rpg, I liked that one a lot
Getting free games is never a bad thing and Amazon Luna has new offerings for Fallout fans looking for free adventures in the Wasteland.
I still give 'em points for even addressing this stuff.
Great graphics and hot lesbians.
Win, win.
Now my lesbian Shep can be a lesbian without banging a dirty alien.
it saddens me that BW is going down a path that is clearly full of problems and heartache for everyone. The second I heard that (M)Commander Shepard can go gay, I just lowered my head in shame.
The issue here isn't something BioWare can solve by appealing to everyone. What this actually calls for is a game specifically designed to appeal to gay gamers.
And to be honest, I don't think anyone has any right to demand that of BioWare.
They will do what they can and we should be thankful for that. But it's certainly not up to BioWare to do the hard work of changing minds to accept the idea of minority gender, racial, or class roles as being on the same level as the "normal" majority.
