Please tell me you don't actually do this
well yeah do you play dnd with friends while minmaxing and metagaming like a faggot?or do you try to make up interesting stories?
I do it a little, mainly when it comes to making decisions.
>>726067926I do. I had a great little headcanon story going on in EO4 in particular, it was pretty good.
I do play games and have fun playing them.
>>726067926Why not make a game with all those details?
>>726070998why?
>>726071065As he says, it enhances the experience. Even more when they're in the game itself.
>>726071091do you want them to sell you Mad Libs with the blanks filled in too?
>>726071302Do you want to buy a lined notebook and write your own madlibs?
>>726068919>he plays dndlmao what a sperg faggot
>>726070998Because people will complain that there's so much BS that gets in the way of the dungeon crawling. >>726071971That's a good idea actualy.
>>726067926>he didn't imagine cutscenes between the charactersngmi
I just beat Shylla in U2 and holy shit what a shitty gimmick fightwhat were they thinking with the third stratum the other boss fight is equally bad with the suicide bomb gimmickreally hope the game goes back to the quality of stratum 1&2 instead of deteriorating more
>>726067926This ironically is the opposite of how roleplaying in RPGs works and is the sign of a really badly designed RPG. Its like that infamous oblivion roleplaying page on its wiki.
>>726073858according to you?
Strategies games are the best place to do this especially if units have voice lines or if you care a lot about keeping units alive. Battle Brothers, Darkest Dungeon, Company of Heroes, Dawn of War, X-COM, Jagged Alliance.
>>726073858>This ironically is the opposite of how roleplaying in RPGs worksIt really isn't though.
>>726073858yesthe game should carry its own weight and let you fill in the rest in the gaps left in betweenthrowing a pile of numbers at you and going "just imagine!!" is lazy
>>726067926But what do they eat, anyway?
>>726075343So you want to play a game that unloads 7 pages of text whenever you do something?
>>726067926Holy SOUL.
>>726073858>this is the modern RPG player's mindsetoutlook not so gud
>>726067926I do this with grand strategy games. I like to imagine the wikipedia articles for the battles in my campaigns.
>>726067926I actually do have headcanon for games like thisit makes games more fun
>>726067926Miitopia could have been the coolest rpg ever if they actually put effort into it.
>>726067926Or I could just play with an ai chat and get a better experience.
>>726067926>character portraits not even visible during battle in the older EO games>every battle is just staring at enemies in a row and menu>just use your imagination!I'm glad the series is dead now. Overpriced lazy dungslop crawler, that's what it is.
