If the VGAs knew what they were doing, Blacklight: Retribution would have won something tbh.

really I'm not the one provoking people over something that's not a big deal like him and a few others in this thread.

Maybe you should go back a few pages before making a,comment like that ok?

Dude I've known him here on BSN for longer than--well, a long time. He's not provocative.

Don't worry about it though I appreciate the support, kind words and such.

In the end it's water off a ducks back, what they say about me.

Anyways I am off back to DA3 section which has more productive discussions of late and more of a potential to influence the next game which has not been created yet than what some on here try to do in this section attempting to change what has already been released.

Talking about drinking tears and saying we're making excuses for something that isn't a big deal in provoking

This is something people on both sides needs to stop doing

I know I'm helping myself by saying he's on a ego trip but thats how he's acting and I'm calling him on it

ME3 did deserve to win Best RPG but its competition was weak, so making a big deal out of it was just plain silly

Yeah but they're doing it because they're grasping at straws. We all know ME3 won't be winning as much awards as they want it to. I mean it couldn't even win GOTY at the VGAs for chistsake. An award ceremony that's run by Dorito Geoff.

No i have a set of balls.

I fail to see how your balls are relevant to the point you're trying to convey. 

 

Oh well it's quite simple really, even before you put any thought into it.

You Pretty Little Liaras is a TV series that's geared towards a female audience. Since i'm not a female, i do not watch the show. You asked me if i did, and i said no because i have testicles.

And that's pretty much it. Any questions, comments, concerns?

When you look at the stocks that have been plummeting for game companies, and the amount of devs that have been leaving the industry, it's hard to ignore the writing on the wall.

That's like saying "we're in a great depression for cars, aren't we" when you see the numbers of companies, well-known companies, either closing up shop or being bought by an Indian company or a...a...who is it that bought Saab? Northern Europe, I know that much. Anyway, it isn't true. Just because people are jumping ship doesn't mean there aren't quality products still being made.

And, because there are quality products being made, simply that, i know it isn't in a depression. Regardless of what devs are doing.

This is basically a case of you taking my depression statement a little too literally. But i'm being serious when i say the gaming industry is doing so great nowadays.

Actually, no, when you make a comment like that very inner quote--you're speaking literally.

The one where i was referring to the writing on the wall wasn't me saying we are currently in a gaming depression. Writing on the wall means warning signs. There can't be warning signs if it's already happened. So no, i wasn't speaking literally.

Do you understand what "speaking literally" means? Speaking literally has nothing to do with when what you're talking about happens, but everything to do with how you're talking about it.

If I say "Mass Effect 4 will sell less than 1 million copies"--I'm speaking literally. it has nothing to do with when the thing I'm talking about occurs.

If I say "Mass Effect 4 will go supernove and finally destroy EA," That's not speaking literally.

And you still don't get it. Mr. Serious. You're taking this so seriously it's starting to get funny. Let's rewind a bit back to that first post shall we?

"*People thinking DA2 deserved to be RPG of the year*

We really are in a great depression for gaming aren't we?"

How could you not tell i was half kidding with that statement?

On the flip side though, i do think the gaming industry is suffering from a lot of problems that need to change before things get a whole lot worse. Now that is the clearest i can make things to you.

I did not actually think you were serious, no. That's why I said "No, it's not," instead of my first post way up there in this quote. When you said what you said in the first part of this quote (the only reason I'm keeping it, as it's quite cumbersome), you spoke literally. Say what you want, but that's a literal statement (bolded).

Then...

*shrugs* 

I don't know....

Shut up about it?

Yeah I'll be honest after I came back i've spent almost all my time in the DA threads too.

I tend to spend most of my forum time either in DA3 section or Project Eternity forums right now. Both are more productive in that you are leaving information and feeback of something still in development as opposed to on ME3 where a huge amount of content by people is merely retroactive trying to change the endings or remaking the already released game in some way. Or simply complaining about the same thing over and over.  Plus the DA3 section has far less melodrama.

Just have to create a thread saying "I love ME3" on this section and you get shown who the bitter people are about the game, the ones who can't stand fact someone liked it. ME3 section is like the DA2 section when DA2 came out, over time this place will follow same route, eventually becoming less melodramatic and a more productive place.

Since when was ME3 an RPG?....it allowed for action mode for crying out loud.....they won the award because of lack of competition so basically there the best of the worst......Dragons dogma was way more of an RPG.....

It also allowed for a story mode. So not really understanding your point. And as much as I loved Dragon's Dogma, it played like 'Action Mode', so not getting that point much either.

seems you struggle at understanding points which is your own problem then.........ME1/2 no action mode, ME3 action mode....nothing to do with story mode, action mode in itself is ridiculous when ME was about choices and story not action/combat, DD was an action based combat RPG and sold itself as that unlike ME which is the best RPG around apparantly yet i think it's the worst of the 3 and worst game of the year.......

Actually Jack is right. Take another example, X-Com Apocalypse has both turn based and real time mode. It was still a turn based strategy game because has a turn based mode, only now it is both a turn based and real time strategy game. Just because has an action mode does not make it any less an RPG, it still has the less action orientated modes. Your point would only stand even a chance of being right if action mode was the only mode even then it would be a dubious stance/point at best.

Not enough people agreed with you to stop it winning. They could of all combined and voted for something else out of spite if enough people did agree, knowing this fanbase that is something that people would do on here. But they didn't and if they did they did not succeed.

Well that's one way of boring me to death............ME3 best of the worst it would seem, it's amazing how best RPG of the year infact turns me away from the series, ahh well skyrim would have easily had it been competing against it.....VGA when winning a videogame award isnt too videogamey

[AresKeith]

But again the only thing I had a problem with was the Best Character award, Claptrap really?

Irony is that for you who says dislike action mode also has contempt for them saying something like too videogamey when action mode is more videogamey for many people.

It's interesting to note that BW never described ME3 as an RPG. Look at the official site. Instead it's called an "action game with an interactive story" and an "action-shooter game". The term RPG is nowhere to be found. I wonder if the site will be changed now that it won the prize. Anyway... The devs must be glad with that prize, though. Congrats.

I can call an apple an orange but calling it something else does not make it so.

The difference is that I am not calling it, but instead the developers of the game do not describe it as an RPG. That means it wasn't their intention to make ME3 an RPG.

Developer didn't say that, publisher did. One that you did not believe when relating to PR for DA2, yet yet magically believe when comes to ME3 PR.

For all intents and purposes BW and EA are the same company. BW as an independent company has died because of that. Also, as you know marketing and monetizing are an integral part of the dev team. Everything you see in public was dreamed up by that team. So do not point to EA when it fits your agenda.
