A full stop is an antiquated way of referring to a period, the marker at the end of a sentence.
>>721914864
It's Tolkien-style writing, arguably. Making it legible to a modern audience.

It's a Commonwealth phrase, like 'cheque' or 'yes, I would like the small portion, please'.

Full stop means "Period".

Y'know, because women don't call their menstrual cycle "full stops".

Full stops are what bongs call periods. I don't think I've known anyone besides my 8th grade teacher who uses this expression.

I hate how people take a fantasy setting as an excuse to have people act and talk however they want. I'm sure there's a good game somewhere in BG3 but I don't know how people suffer through the snarky dialogue and melodramatic voice acting to play it.

Incorrect, the correct slang would be "on god" with a "frfr" thrown in if emphasis is needed, though a second character can chime in with the "frfr". Note it should be said as an abbreviation and not actually spoken as only uncs actually say "for real".

This is because you don't know why Tolkien wrote things the way he did. Lord of the Rings was written to be a legible and salient "translation" of a mythology he made up, to a contemporary audience. Yes this means it would still be written casually if he'd done it in 2025.
>>
>>721917093
Fuck off, he wrote it to be evocative of other epics and sagas. It was archaic and dry but also romantic, sometimes poetic.

>>721917675

this exists in parallel with the given explanation of writing contemporarily, one of the books has an opening foreword that if they see a modern turn of phrase it's because he did a mock translation

Just because the trilogy wasn't written like the Silmarillion doesn't mean he was writing it for contemporary audiences... But even if he was, I think he'd respect the english language enough not to write it like how millennials do

I have a pet peeve with the phrase "let's cut to the chase". I recently heard it in a medieval game, and I also played a Western game where one of the characters said it every time you selected them. It clearly stems from the film industry, where you skip over the boring part to cut to the exciting chase scene.

See, there's a lot of good scenes sprinkled throughout in order to trick the audience, like Mordin's sacrifice or Tali looking upon Rannoch without her mask, but that's just the pretty face for otherwise braindead writing.

It's been a while, but as I recall ME3 opened up your equipment choices a bit again and you could use whatever weapons you wanted, but your weapon choices would affect your cooldowns and shit. ME2 was way more locked down and you only had, like, 2 weapon choices for each weapon class (unless you bought DLC).

i get that it's not commonly used, but i'm surprised by the number of people in this thread who apparently have never heard the phrase "full stop" before. yes, it's bongspeak for a period, but the term sometimes gets used for added emphasis in American English, too. you people need to read books sometimes, VNs and RPGs aren't enough.

>>721915443
It's the desire to present (or reduce) fantasy to modernity with spells and dragons. Basically turn fantasy into hogwartz outside of school. The worst thing is it isn't making it in a fun and exotic way that urban fantasy can but in a mundane drudgery sort of daydreaming.

I'd not split hairs if I didn't know this was a tip of the iceberg, since I've used full stop in 4chan writing and I don't think it's egregious like the other tranny shit the game has.

>>721923665
I won't defend the other dogshit but
>>the Quarians decide the best time to restart the war with the Geth is during a galactic apocalypse
We should allow room for 'sincere stupidity' like this. That is EXACTLY the kind of behavior a bunch of retards like the quarians would do. When we encounter shitty writing it's necessary to distinguish between
>Stupid character actions that are nonsensical
and
>stupid character actions that are shortsighted.

I saw this happen a lot with people bitching about games where villains aren't afraid of us because we went and killed god or whatever. And unless they witnessed you doing so firsthand all they have to go off that is just "Dude I killed god" yeah sure thing faggot.

It's reasonably something that SOME retarded quarians would decide, but there's no fucking way they'd be able to convince the entire fucking flotilla to put themselves in jeopardy like that. MAYBE you could've played a clearer "the galaxy is ending and everyone is going to die, so let's at least die on our homeworld" angle, but the writers weren't actually committed to the bleakness for that. And making the situation more nuanced wouldn't work either because they decided that they had to resolve the Geth-Quarian conflict RIGHT NOW and there wasn't any time for any build up beyond what little we got from Tali's ME2 mission.

You just gotta give up on historically accurate linguistics eventually or otherwise you'll never be satisfied.
Like when a work set in the medieval times uses minutes, or when an allied soldier calls petrol bombs "Molotov cocktails" during WWII.
The reverse is also true, as anachronistic as a girl named Tiffany getting a navel piercing in the victorian-era sounds, it wasn't an unlikely thing to happen back then but it's still often written out because it just sounds wrong for the time period.

In fact it may be a Shakespeare coinage although it could simply be an English rendering of grammatical terminology in use since ancient Greece.
So if you think it's anachronistic, it's because you lack historical perspective

It's such a cop-out to say that people can't identify with non-human creatures. Movies are loaded with non-humans that the audience loved and felt for/with.
It's either lazy and/or untalented writers or the publishers being afraid of alienating potential customers.

No, that's capitalism. Capitalism values nothing but profit and it promotes individualism. So it panders to self-inserting and doesn't give a shit about artistic integrity. Art becomes just another commodity.

Fun fact it's a noted thing where people expect "Shakespearean" dialogue and a posh British accent from period writings when historically Shakespeare would have been writing for people with an accent very close to modern midwestern American and the dialogue was very casual (Shakespeare wrote for profit, so mostly commoner works)

It's whenever a story and setting is written where all the non-human aspects of it don't actually matter and are mostly there just to serve the real story which is about muh human condition/human drama. Like, I'd say most zombie/apoc stuff tend to be considered human stories because the zombies and such don't really matter.

You are a retarded child who thinks that profit is something bad. Profit means that something works. Digging a hole with a shovel is profitable when compared to doing it with your hands.

Profit is using the resources available to us in the most efficient/best way possible.

I had a coworker at my previous IT job who would say "Full stop do not pass go do not collect $200." whenever she was trying to make a particularly strong point and it was the most annoying thing I've ever encountered, both because she overused the phrase itself so much and because after you say "full stop" you're supposed to STOP TALKING.

This is the same fucking retarded argument as the stupid localization shit. No, it isn't required that these writers make their fantasy characters speak like limp-wristed fruits you'd find at a Starbucks in Seattle. The discussion isn't about acceptable anachronisms (i.e. medieval peasants not calling wheat corn), it's about character talking like faggots and having no panache that it's a fantasy setting or a world other than our own. The shit with the one character saying they're non-binary is a good example, because it's so transparently and immersion-shatteringly "modern" that it became a meme people made fun of. It wouldn't have been nearly as ridiculous and stupid if there was a term for it in-universe (and there even is, they just didn't use it because they're writing as if their faggy characters are from California).
>>
>>721914579

Dragon Age II. I don't care how rushed it was but you could see the sudden tone shift in that game just from the start. Everyone is some shade of snark that was dialled up to 11 in Veilguard, you had that fucking dreadful DLC with that geek girl that was everywhere in the early 2010s. Ironically Origins is the one that bucks the trend in comparison to the rest of the series.

And that's why Mass Effect 2 is still the best of them all - it had almost nothing to do with the Reapers, though Citadel is also on the level

>>721914339
It's another way of saying "period" but you're supposed to actually stop after it. Like, telegrams used to end sentences with "stop" and the entire message with "full stop", so when you say, "full stop," it's like a euphemistic way of saying QED, the message is down and the statement is proven or self-evident. Full stop.

"full stop" is another term for the period at the end of a sentence. it's used in conversation to mean that the previous statement is not open to discussion, debate or refutation.
>>
>>721942280

>>721914339
I thought the implication in fantasy games is that people are always speaking "common" or some other language but it's just translated to English for the benefit of the player, so using modern English colloquialisms and slang would never make ANY kind of sense because they aren't actually speaking English.

it was supposed to be a Fortnite/Overwatch type of art style to match the game's original plan as live service slop. i'm not even joking either. that's literally what jason schreier said. and apparently the writing was supposed to be even cringier but they saw the backlash against Forspoken and decided to do a ton of last minute re-writes.
>>
>>721942439
>used in conversation to mean that the previous statement is not open to discussion, debate or refutation.
Luckily the "people" who use the term have no power to actually decide or enforce that, so it's meaningless and just shows how desperate for control they are while at the same time being completely impotent to do anything whatsoever other than limp-wristed word policing and threatening to cry.
>>
Inserting modern day slang and terms that come straight out of California into your medieval fantasy world is a really fucking dumb decision.
