It's been more than ten seconds without them pumping out a new Warhammer video game, sure they're alright?
I'm playing Final Fantasy 13-2 now, and not long after recording and posting that video, I get into a battle with a chocobo. But in this game, you can actually defeat them, and, you can capture enemies and then they will fight alongside you, including the chocobo.Pretty much like an actual barnyard battle with a crazed hen. You can try but you will never actually make contact.
Was trying to find this on youtube, and could not, so, booted up the game, PS4 version and recorded it myself.
Final Fantasy 7: Knights of the Round VS a Chocobo.
I own the game already, but am kinda reluctant to play it. From reading up on it, it seems like a lot of the game's story is oriented around that early 2010s fad of "There are basically no 'good guys' in this story, and all your choices are just degrees of bad" that seemed to be all over at the time.For anyone who has been watching the Fallout series on Amazon but hasn't played, Fallout 4: Game of the Year edition is on sale on Steam for $9.99 for the next few hours. Well worth it at that price.

Like, in Far Cry 4 where you join with these rebel groups against a lunatic dictator only to later discover that, no matter which sub-faction in the rebel group you help, they basically are both awful and your best move at the beginning of the game that causes the least amount of harm is to eat some crab rangoon and then leave.
Instead, I've decided to install Fallout: New Vegas (which I've never played), load up a TON of mods, and give that one a runthru. I gather it's at least a little better than FO4's rather bleak "There are no good choices" approach that refuses to take a moral stance other than "Everything is bad, and you may be complicit by merely playing."
By the way, I blame the original Bioshock and later SpecOps: The Line for this trend. Like, it was novel and interesting as an artistic statement once upon a time, but now it just seems lame and overly navel-gazing, not to mention smug from a comfortable relativist position.
Just be sure to install the mod that fixes the game so Preston Garvey doesn't show up every ten seconds to annoy you with the same crap.The Minutemen are definitely the good guys. They're trying to bring back democracy and justice in the Wasteland. The Underground are nuts who would probably bang robots if they could. You have the Brotherhood of Steel, which is kind of gray unless you love mutants, then they would be evil. Then you have the Institute (basically offspring of original MIT survivors, but they can't say MIT), which started out with a good cause and became pretty evil, though evil in a completely detached, scientific "let's see what would happen" kind of way.
I would still play it, because the people you've read probably just didn't like it because there are definitely good outcomes to the story.
The movie sucked and completely rips the heart and soul out of the book and dumbs everything down substantially. Either get the book or the audiobook and pretend the movie doesn't exist. Another tragedy in the 'What could have been...' vein if they had just stuck with the source material.One day I'm going to go through wiki for 80s and 90s arcade games as the sound effects coming from those arcades made me feel happy. Just mentioning Burgertime makes me remember the music. And I still remember the sound effect for the air pump in Dig Dug.
I still haven't seen Ready Player One for some reason. Maybe I'll check it out soon.
Exactly. If people want something more comfy than reading the novel, the audiobook narrated by Wil Wheaton is said to be great.The movie sucked and completely rips the heart and soul out of the book and dumbs everything down substantially.

Yeah, Wheaton does a great job and he also reads the sequel Ready Player Two.Exactly. If people want something more comfy than reading the novel, the audiobook narrated by Wil Wheaton is said to be great.
Makes sense, he was the very kind of kid the game's creator is portrayed as, so he can draw from that to do his job.
But sadly the sequel was just a disappointing cash grab that actually cheapens the results of the first book.Yeah, Wheaton does a great job and he also reads the sequel Ready Player Two.
