What on earth is inexistent content?

It's "bland".

 

People, broaden your minds.

You could've just said "I don't want to."

 

More prejudice in him than Elizabeth Bennet

All you plebs should be playing TW3 instead of arguing about narrative. TW3 shows that fantastic narrative helps make a fantastic game better.

Having no existence; nonexistent.
 
So Dragon age 2 had no content apparently. I know a lot of it was filler with no relation to the main plot but it definitely had content.

Man you can't put two words together and make up a concept.

 

So DA2 had no content? Like... nothing at all?

 

I don't get it.

100 pages left.

 

Should buy Baptism.

 

But I spent all that money.

 

To play TW3.

 

Damn graphic cards ><

But to the topic, I think it's about how the game itself is structured.

 

If a game wants to focus on the story and use gameplay as a mode to tell and move around the story, then the story is more important to the game, but the gameplay is still important because it's the locomotion to the next part of the story.

 

If a game wants to focus on the gameplay, then it needs at least a servicable amount of story, to really the point that either it needs to decide to not give a story or at least tell something that isn't awful to trudge through.

 

I also consider the visuals as just as an important part of this spider-web tug of war.

Which one is that, Advanced Warfare? Funny how Troy Baker had time for more pseudo movie work.

Anyway, I've played the first two Witcher games but need to go through them again but found myself playing Devil Saga and Persona Q more lately.. I'll get to the Witcher eventually.

I don't want to be that guy but should OG Messiah really be saying this? You ride for BioWare pretty hard.

I suggest taking the comment with a grain of salt. He was being overly facetious

Edit Never mind it's KotorEffect. I forgot he existed for a while.

YeahIknowright?

 

Go steal his copy of TW3 and give it to me.

 

Fanboys don't deserve them.

 

You don't mind if I ignore you after you stole it right?

 

Of course not.

Yeah, story is cool in games.

Depends on the game though.

Don't care for story in Tetris.
