Your Choices Don't Matter: The Game
Your Choices Don't Matter: The Trilogy
somebody just watched the e;r video
>>732191882Shows standards were higher back then. If ME3 happened today, you'd have an army of shills defending the ending.
>>732191914Guilty as charged
Well, yeah. It's Telltale garbage. Guess kids are too young to remember their slow, pathetic agony.
You can tell the devs were retards because they openly admitted they had no idea the waifus would be so popular.
>>732191637>playing a glorified dating sim for choicesThe only choices that matter are if you prefer bpd tomboys, or busty brunettes that work in hr.
>>732191996Discovered a lesson that Japanese developers learned 34 years ago with dragon quest 5 lol
E;R is right
>>732191637Just like real life.. where unknown forces conspire against you and whatever choice you make gets retroactively turned into the wrong one.
It's pretty obvious what they're doing if you've played more than once or just save scummed. The less route specific content the less you have to animate and the less voice lines you need to record. For the most part Dispatch really keeps up the illusion well and the cracks don't show until the final episodes.
>>732192070He's just reiterating what even Telltalle fans have been saying lmao. It's just that with Dispatch they got a new wave of zoomers who weren't around for Walking Dead.People forgot that literally the reason Telltalle died was because people got tired of their slow ass, outdated, no-consequences formula.
>>732191637wtf is wrong with her left leg
>>732192143Ever heard of perspective?
It's a good tv show / dating sim. Once you ignore the idea of your choices not mattering and just enjoy the roller coaster it's very enjoyable. I like E;R, but a visual novel like expefience of this quality can't exactly expect to delve deep into characters due to budget and time limitations.
>>732192194He addressed this issue though. He said that he completely understands the budget and time constraints and trying to do a true high fidelity branching formula is almost impossible, especially if you plan to have multiple seasons. His problem was that they keep advertising it as a "choices matter game".
>>732192140Well no, Telltale died because they kept taking contracts to do IPs and projects no one really had any interest in, and their budgeting was completely fucked because they made walking dead tier sales the expectation rather than the exception
>>732192273Yea that's to trick the goyim, and it works, retards new to this formula are tricked because they only play the games once
>>732192279Nah, their formula simply never evolved and they kept making streaming bait titles which is always a good idea where your business model is to have a handful of people actually buy your game and rest will just watch it.
>>732192316>them eyesMy dick
>>732192279it was a combination of that and their ceo quite literally embezzling all the money into his own pocketsthey oversaturated their own market and failed to keep people interested because the quality of writing was inconsistent and best and outright trash at worst it's a shame because right before they got canned they actually did manage to have a game where choices mattered with batman 2, iirc the last episode, or the ending at least, was pretty different based on how you treated joker throughout the game
>>732192316ugly bitch
>>732191637E;r just destroyed dispatch Why did dispatch troons shill another soulless telltale game with zero choices
>>732191882>>732191959Ending was so bad that fans delusion themselves with indoctrination theory.The theory was so good and I am still mad they didn't simply adaopt it and say "yeah, that's what we did".It explain all the lazy shit they did perfectly
>>732191882It's funny.I have many problems with the mass effect trilogy, but "choices don't matter" really isn't one.I can't think of a game series where choices made in previous games matters more.>BUT THE ENDING!Is garbage. But choices have nothing to do with it.
>>732191637Where the fuck is the next korra video you hack?
Dispatch needed a free-play mode where you just play the actual game-part as much as you like.
>>732191914Imagine thinking e;r is the only person who came to that conclusion
>>732192273>they keep advertising it as a "choices matter game".Surely you can prove it? Nobody would tell lies on the internet.
Gib Mandy gf
>>732191637>not posting the based version
i just watched E:R videoand now i know why bots here only talk about the romance lmao
Why do people keep mentioning Elden Ring?
>>732191914Is it good?
>>732195957They are talking about Estrogen Receptors you mongoloid.
>>732191637I thought you can end up dating the bitchy one of the fake blonde or stay single. That’s way more choices mattering than in any other Telltale game.
>>732191882You're a retard that hasn't played the trilogy.
I think wide hips, fat thighs, and huge asses are disgusting. Please keep her on-model. I picked Visi over Blazer BECAUSE of her slender body.
>>732191637>Your Choices Don't MatterThen why the board was flooded by a ton of people getting the bad ending when the game was finished
>>732191637Yes, and?
>>732191637she wishes her tits were that big
>>732196461I don't
>>732191959Case in point >>732194539 >>732196178
>>732196461Visi suits being a chestlet. It matches up well with her stick proportions and visable bagina bones.
>expect a foid to take responsibility and enforce consequences when she doesn't>flips out and turns evilYeah that tracks
Your Choices Do Matter: The Game
>>732191882Wasn't the red choice objectively the best ending. Especially if you 100% the trilogy with the final army ranking and you get to see Shepherd alive
>>732197539They matter as much as the choices in Dispatch.
>>732191637>The Gamenigger.
>>732197829
>>732197829Nah you unironically get different shit which is funny for a Cage game. His most competent title though carried by Connor plotline.
>>732197539Shame only 1/3 of the game is good tho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PFr-kNfq1s4
>>732198604You also get different shit in Dispatch, just on a much smaller scale due to a much smaller budget.
>>732191914People still watch that guy?
>movie game for non gamers>target audience is obviously tumblr fandom women who "ship" fictional characters>and maybe a few males who pretend to be feminists to impress said tumblr womenWhy is someone on /v/ even interested in this?
>>732194720That’s the funny part: places like /v/ and reddit (i.e. “/v/ backwash”) will not take an assertion seriously unless it’s an e-celeb who makes it. Yes, other people have pointed out what a completely meaningless game Dysentery is, but if it takes a video essay like E;R’s to get the retards to take criticism seriously then whatever.
>>732191637Meh. Telltale's gonna Telltale. It's a movie with two romance options.
>>732200234Because this place was shill central during the Walking Dead games, and I’m guessing there are a ton of /v/irgins who were suckered in out of nostalgia for that era and/or the promise of basic-bitch waifus.
>>732191637Stop drawing the skinny athletic brown tomboy as a voluptuous plapgoddess
>>732200586damn right!
>>732191637if you expected them to going in you're a retard. it's telltale shit in everything but name. also invisigal a cute
>>732200673Shame about her personality.
>TwaQI know what kind of man you are.
>>732200713>noooo characters can't be flawed they have to be perfect yes-girl waifus who are perfect in every wayI'll take my insecure ADHD-addled wabi-sabi cupcake who's doing her best and I'll like it, thank you very much.
>>732200647Based :3
>>732200803Talking more about her being an unrepentant villain and murderer pretending to want redemption when I reality all she wants is dick, and immediately turning on you if she doesn't get it cause you don't stick your dick in crazy like a retard.
I don't get Invisibitch. She felt bad about bombing Bobob and his mech, but went through with it and watched the explosion from her car while looking all emotionless, THEN accepted Shroud's job as a double agent within Dispatch? Was the thing about her augments not working once she "left" Shroud's gang just a lie? I must've missed something along the way.
>>732201029I'm gonna be 100% honest, I think the writers don't really even know. I liked Dispatch a lot but the writing gets really shaky at the end and feels unfinished. If I had to guess, I don't think she was lying about the augments not working because her asthma was still acting up all those weeks she was working at SDN. Maybe Shroud turned them off to make sure she kept her cover or something I dunno.
>>732201187Jesus. I know you're trying to stir shit for attention or whatever, but do people really get off on this stuff?
It's funny because i didn't see the alternative, but the fact that Invisigal magically knows who you are even if you don't reveal your identity and she's not in the room when Chase reveals it is so funny. They didn't even care to check for all the (limited) choices in their shitty game.
>>732200234i like it a lot.
>>732201258>do people really get off on this stuff?nope, and all those vore websites, thousands upon thousands of vore images, and threads on /d/ are just a huge ironic joke that you're not in on
>>732201029I think Shroud was just lying to cause discord between Invisigal and the team. She could've given the power core to Shroud at anytime.>>732191637The choices indeed don't matter much. There are two endings, normal ending and good ending. If the sequel follows this cast, they have to kill off Invisigal so the paths don't diverge too far.
>>732201347Lol even in her Villain path she does a good thing. There won't be any issue to get back on track and everyone behaving like nothing happened.
>>732201347Visi was definitely not giving the astral pulse to Shroud. I think that whole thing that happened in the lab in the final episode was her going to secretly swap it with the proto pulse so she could pretend she was double agenting to Shroud and give him the wrong one while the suit had the real one now for Bobert to use.
>>732201267>but the fact that Invisigal magically knows who you are even if you don't reveal your identityAnon...
No such things as a choice matters game.
>>732201347if they really kill her, they will kill the IP lmao I can totally see them doing that just to spit the fanbase
>>732201267I'm pretty sure she knew from the beginning, like Blazer. She was hiding in the conference room when Robert took off his mask the first day. They even argued about it in the kitchen when the bat guy waiting for the shaker to finish up.Unless you could've somehow avoided her seeing you in the first day.
>>732201347a visi death could actually be kino but yeah I would probably lose interest in the series if she was gone.
>>732201347Was Shroud lying? For a second there, his goons treated her like one of them. You see her taking their money for the job and then she turns invisible out of embarrassment, I think?
>>732201267You forgot, huh old timer?
Not a video game
>>732201267???? Anon?
>>732196750>no argument Concession accepted.

Only normalfags think video games should be choose your own adventure novels. I dont even know what this crap in thr OP is, but im sure its some grim safe horny pseudo-WEG and you dont belong here. Hope that helps.
>>732202439no because the game isn't run in real time, it's all prerendered. you would have to edit every single individual frame and compile them into new video files for the game to call on.
>>732202568Doesn't he only do both when the girl has dark skin?

>>732191637This actually goes for every game that features dating mechanics. No matter who you choose to be your waifu, it's not and never will be canon to the game's story.
>>732192316All the five stages, god damn!
>>732191637It's an interactive tv show, who gives a fuck? """Play""" it or watch a video on youtube then move on with your life and play a real game.
>>732191637Why is this pose so hot?
>>732200798>>732201983Why do you and NTRfags get off to men.
>>732196195I can understand every kind of fetish even if I don't like it EXCEPT off model of popular characters. Visi is a slender energetic tomboy, that is her thing along with the impossible spiky hair.
>>732197330>bear with the bpd girl no matter what>she turns good and falls for youWe all know it is just a video game ;_;

I really liked Dispatch. It's just a shame that it was made by...the people who made it. The worst parts of the game are when their californian onions reddit leftist critical role dnd millenial or gen x whatever the fuck energy comes out. But that's mostly just in the quips and banter, which can be eyerolled away. The main beats of the story, characters, animation and general found family comfy vibe are all really goodHonestly Aaron Paul's voice is kind of fucking annoying though
>>732191637>Power depends on her ability to hold her breath>SmokesHow retarded!
IT'S ALREADY ALRIGHTALREADY ALRIGHThttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3aHTtR4vLQ
>>732206894>Honestly Aaron Paul's voice is kind of fucking annoying thoughwhy? I thought he was really good in it. I didn't even know it was him at first since I didn't know the actor by name.
>>732202768>>732206607It makes basically no sense for a white girl to have Bleached tattoos.
>>732206959>How retarded!My adorably retarded delicious brown retarded punk tomboy wife!
>>732206959But aren't girls cutest when they're almost retarded?
>>732191996Wouldn’t be the first time animators absolutely carried writers in storytelling.
>>732204138akina spotted
>>732207237It's partly the way Robert was written himself, partly his delivery of some lines. The character is essentially "and then everyone clapped" lines and speeches that you think of in the shower the next day. the type of person these gay writers wish they were. I just needed 5% more reality. They made one offhanded dig at how he gives too many pep talks by Flambae and one admission from Robert that he didn't plan his speech past revealing his identity because he thought Flambae would kill him, so he didn't know what to say. There was also that scene where he had fallen asleep reading some management tips guidebook. I appreciated these but they were very minor, easily unnoticeable things though. I wish there was just one scene of him practicing some lines in the mirror or something that we then later hear him saying in a full speech. Just something that is actually endearing instead of just expecting the audience to like him as much as the characters instantly do. Because the reality is he was a lone hero autist with depression in a robot suit that never interacted with anyone. He wouldn't be some charisma man
>>732202147Too hot to be SEA, mouth too small to be latina, anime brown.
>>732201029Nothing about what Shroud said makes adde up so I chalk it up to him bluffing about a bunch of shit. In reality I think they changed a lot about Visi as things went along but didn’t change what they wrote for the ending so the dialogue just didn’t end up making sense anymore.
>>732208267Episode 1-5 all flow, after that it feels very rushed
>>732192986>>732192279IIRC they also had their office in one of the most expensive parts of California god knows why. Probbly because they were high on their farts supply.
>>732208492but muh hustle and bustle...
>>732208051His charisma comes from the fact that he’s sincere. Obviously the writer’s can sit down and figure it all out and hammer it out so it sounds nice but from the Z-Team perspective Robert is doing it all off the top of his dome as he tries to get through to them. That’s why he’s always cursing and saying random shit like “fuck the stars.” The only practice he’s had is dropping one-liners while fighting the villains and talking shit with Chase when he was a kid.
>>732208583>His charisma comes from the fact that he’s sincereYeah I know. That's what I'm talking about. They tried to have it both ways, which was annoying to me
>no Coupe routeShit interactive movie
>>732209037now that's a massive pair of saggers right therelook great when contained though

>>732210129not if i dont remember what it is
>>732191637>bro every character is a psychotic murderer who kills people, talks about killing people, or has a higher body count than the Golden State killer!>Hahaha why does the government let them go make a law enforcement team instead of jail? Hahaha stop asking questions. It's supposed to be poorly written
>>732206959>power is bested by any form of modern detection technologyIt's like sailor moon where one person gets fucking bubbles for powers

>>732192070>E;Rwhat year is it
>>732210709regardless, she cute, would totally wife, and coupe is an underrated character
>>732210503>bro every character is a psychotic murderer who kills people, talks about killing people, or has a higher body count than the Golden State killer!i only played through the game once but idr if ppl talk about killing like that
>>732210609I think Phenomaman and BB are supposed to be outliers in this world. Most heroes aren’t that OP (we have a fucking midget who’s big claim to fame is he doesn’t feel it when he’s getting his ass kicked). Visi in most any fight is shown to be quite the shitkicker even with a limited power set.
>>732194687yeah, they really did>find out every episode is completely scripted with 0 variation and factually correct ways to send heroes outwhat a let down, that would have been fine if>story didn't get centered around invisigal>story wasn't biased in favor of invisigal>story wasn't hinging on literally everything invisigal does or doesn't do>if you don't have invisigal as your GF, the storyline is fucking dumbalso>hero company keeps villains who have done nothing but circle jerk themselves for months>hire new manager>new manager turns them completely around with 0 fuck ups>Wow! Good job bobert! you got them all to work together without any problems! so fantastic!>anyways, i need you to fire one of them to show we are "serious", what you want me the leader who decided this retarded idea to tell them? No, it's better if it comes from their dispatcher so we can then use it later for cheap drama that we invented ourselves for no other reason than we suck at writing stories
>>732208051That's how every video game non action character is written.Normal human interaction is boring, vapid, and soulless. In real life he wouldn't have gotten laid or respected.He wouldn't have had 2 extremely sexually attractive women salivating over his cock.
>>732194687I bet one will come eventually. maybe closer to next year's game awards so they can have an excuse to push it back into the public consciousness.
>>732191637E;R is just mad he got the worst ending possible
>>732200950>all she wants is dick, and immediately turning on you if she doesn't get itYou don't need to romance her in order to prevent her from getting back into villainy. You can go with Blazer and still have a good ending for Visi.
>>732211270it's the biggest signifier of someone who didn't play the game or even bother watching it on youtube when it comes up that "Visi turns evil if you don't fuck her".
>>732191637Hehe its becoming more popular right?
>>732192178Then her torso is the problem
>>732191637>faggot doesn't play games>he just makes threads about games after getting his opinions about them from Youtubemany such cases.
>>732192316>defend her and give her several chances, just decide not to romance her because Mandy is so much better that it's not even funny>free her >She kills Shroud anywaysI really hate this pet bitch of a character.
>>732191637BRAAAAAAAAAAAP *sniff sniff sniiiiifffffffff* BRAAAA-PUURRRRPRPRPRPRPRP *SNIIIIFFFFFFFFF haaaaaah SNIFF SNIFF SNIIFFFFFFFFF haaaah*
>>732212581She's awful which is why she's simped for and by some of the most awful people you can find on this website
>>732211270I wonder where I fucked up because I was genuinely annoyed last time I plaed ep 8
>>732191637I always wondered what kind of asshole did you have to be to get the Bad Ending for Dispatch. And now I've found him.
>>732212614Yeah, she's like every red flag rolled into a single person and we're supposed to believe that this vet hero with a heroic personality falls for her? It's jarring and feels forced from the dream onward.
Forcing the player to cut someone from the supevillain rehab program we're in charge of literally on the second day of the job is insane. From a narrative perspective, from a choice perspective, from an organizational perspective. All to create the plot "thread" of one of them becoming a villain later that leads to nothing substantialLike literally first day Blazer says >you led the best shift that team has ever had>we'll take your lead and try things your wayThen she breaks up with her boyfriend and over the weekend decides someone is going to get cut and goes ahead and informs YOUR TEAM before telling you, on your second day. The most you're allowed to say is "uhhh are you sure" and that's itand people think blonde blazer is best girl
>>732212693cutting Visi from the team and then leaving her handcuffed is enough to turn her to villainy and both of those are reasonable choices given the circumstances they happen in.
>>732212776
>>732211132I tried watching one of E;R's streams.I cannot overemphasize how cancerous it is.Not because of the edgy humor or the slurs, don't be silly.The problem is the unfunny mongaloids spamming TTS messages and interacting with the horrid chat-GTP abomination he's rigged up.It is unbearably constant, every 30 seconds.Hope E;R is at least managing to get some decent money from that gaggle of retards.
>>732212776That whole sequence wasn't thought out very well as they obviously wanted everyone to cut Coupe, but you barely knew these characters at that point, so it feels more kind of bullshit than anything really impactful. And then that's the last time team dynamics ever get discussed because it becomes Invisigal's story after that episode. There are some really badly written stuff in Dispatch if you really sit back and think about it on multiple playthroughs
>>732212693He actually explains why the point system is fucked and you basically have to fuck her or be extremely on point so she doesn't derail. Mind you I don't agree with that being a bad thing per se, she is a woman.
>>732212969I romanced her in my 1st playthrough and nice as possible to her outside of cutting her from Z-team and leaving her handcuffed and she still turned into my cute archnemesis wife.
The only real choice would be to make Mandy your wife, and Courtney your sex pet, that you and Mandy dom and abuse(lovingly)
>>732201258Vore in itself seems to have different levels. Some of it is kind of understandable BDSM play with extra layers. It's the vore where you actively see the painful digestion process itself or heavy focus on shitting and burping that I really can't figure out the appeal of.
my invisible wife
>>732213175i just giggle at it and try to make my way through it peeking between my fingers. it's like watching a car crash, I have to tab out for a few seconds to catch my breath before tabbing back to it and trying to look at the vore shit again. it's really just artistic toilet humor
>>732213096>leaving her handcuffedThat's probably the biggest mistake. You can cut her from the team and still get the hero Visi ending as long as you're reasonable in the conversation about it with her, and you can even romance Blazer and still get hero Visi. But if you still can't trust Visi by that stage of the story, that'll likely have a huge negative swing that pushes her to the villain/anti-hero route.The other big factor isn't story related but instead how successful she is on missions. If you have her keep failing or bench her too long, she won't be able to rack up enough points to fix the damage caused by bad calls.
WHEN YOU'RE AROUND IT'S ALL READY ALL RIGHTALL READY ALL RIGHT LIKE A RADIOIM TUNING INTO YOUYOU'RE TURNING ME ON
>>732191637Developed by: Your Choices Don't Matter: The Studio
my question is why does invisigal wear her watch upside down
>>732213175Eating and reducing someone to literal shit. Doesn't get more of a dominance display than that.
>>732191637All Your Choices Matter: The Game>The video surveillance of SIE's reunion with Thorton was removed and encrypted by the latter. It has since been rewatched 153 times, and every intelligence agency on Earth is offering rewards upwards of a million dollars for its contents.
If you don't date Visi you have to send her on like 10-20 extra successful missions to get the good ending. You have to be biased in her favor no matter what.If you want to cut her and not forgive her and keep her tied up and still want her to be a hero, you have to send her on something like 35 successful missions.
>>732210970I never understand this critique about shorter stories where people are just like “it would have been better if it wasn’t about this person.” Then it wouldn’t be a thing at all. It was always about Robert, Vis, and BB. That is how the story was made. It’s not a ten million episode serial tv show where focus drifted over years, it was literally always their story, if you don’t like them then you don’t like the story itself.
>>732210108I liked Zaheer so no but he was the only interesting character in that shitshow
>>732212776The fact that whoever stays within Robert’s sphere of influence staying good and whoever leaves always turning evil again makes it just an actual, factual fuck up on her part to. No denying it. It’s kind of funny how hard the writers fucked over the one they thought would easily win the best girl bowl.
>>732213727Zaqueer is dumb because he has no reason to think the avatar is bad for humanity except libertarian autism. The show should have tried to at least entertain his perspective by showing that the avatars over history have been willing to cause mass casulty events for the sake of the natural or spiritual world. He could have found out by studying in the owl library or something.
>>732213695If people didn't like the story (including the world, the characters) they wouldn't be asking for it to be longer and exploring more characters deeply.I agree with you that people should engage art on its own terms, but you're probably exaggerating when you say you don't understand why people would be saying thing like that.

>>732212581You dont have to romance her its just easier if you do. You just fucked up the dispatch missions or choices for her. Skill issue.
>>732214137I mean when Golem, Prism and Punch-up are almost guaranteed successes on most dispatches involving them with absolutely busted abilities, it's not crazy to bench invisigal for half of these missions. I guess I'll just prioritize her in my next run.
>>732214294I made her my mobility bot so she always had something to do.
>>732214294I had great success making visi and all rounder, like every stat 5 or something, she was my most successful hero by the end actually. If you send her with Golem you get a +15% to your final chance anyways
>>732191882>3 fun games>The ending is almost here!>What's this matrix bs?>Uhh, I was the good guy so blue I guess?>Huh, let me reload and try green.>...What's the difference?>Do I need to do an entire renegade run to get the real ending?
>>732199141Brother, characters can actually die based on your choices, ending their plotline early while continuing others, changing how events play out when they may have met otherwise. That isn't even comparable to the linearity of Dispatch.
>>732195997Pretty solid. A bit too much going into how Dispatch/TTG are false-advertising how much your choices shape the game since most people know that, especially his audience, but still good.
I liked Malevola>inb4 but alaaaaanahdont care, cute voice and the character malevola was actually perfect the entire game. perfect mix of bad girl flirting from visi with an extremely good person like blazeryou're all left vs right cattle
>>732191882>choices determine whether your friends live or die>choices determine whether entire species live or die>minor choices like whether you bought a certain weapon license carry across three fucking games to have an impact on the results of a quest>even the shitty end choice that everyone hates gives the player the chance to rule over the galaxy as the tech god or become space jesus and end racismI'm tired of zoomers dishonestly pretending that games weren't far better before their time. They literally can't imagine how good things used to be. Just imagine if the average Pisspatch fan played the ME trilogy.>actual gameplay with failstates>voice acting by real actors instead of washed-up e-celebs>game actually remembers your choices instead of just telling you "X will remember that (they won't)">get to hear dialogue with characterization instead of the same quirk chungus redditor dialogue constantly>romance options that are actually nice to the player and don't manipulate/abuse you>story filled with sincerity about a group of real real heroes instead of a bunch of millennials whining about their depressionJack alone would blow the mind of your average Invisicunt fan, sadly zoomers don't actually play video games.
>>732215031ME2 let you kill one of your own party members to save her sociopathic muderfucker daughter and the game LETS YOU FUCK HER even though her entire schtick is "I kill people as a result of having sex with them and I enjoy doing it" which results in a game over because of course it doesIt's amazing
>>732214969I really did not like the voice performance until she started to get slutty. Sounded half asleep. Plus her initial build fucking sucks.
>>732215296The Morinth game over punishing thousands of teenage boys for horny edgy tards is one of the greatest moments of comedy in gaming history.
>>732214638And in Dispatch you can pick who joins the Z-team, which gives you different character interactions, events and gameplay options. Again, that's just the scale of things.
>>732192316beautiful queen
>>732192316man that animation studio really did just adore the shit out of her, didn't they? it's like half their budget went into animating her face.
>>732206228I love this phenotype so much bros
>>732191637these movie games aren't cheap, like it costs money to make this shit. Like it's a lot easier for a game like Disco Elysium or Fallout to have choices that "matter" because they don't have to draw up story boards or do mo-cap or cinematography... fucking whatever these telltale games doit's like the opposite of a visual novel, like making a tv show video game is way more expensive than a book video game
>>732191637>Your Choices Don't Matter: The GameAbsolute LOLhttps://youtu.be/7W2He9z3w3I?si=kd-Qt5x8DAF6WT0c
Somebody watched E;R
>>732215031I love Mass Effect and Dispatch.
>>732212581I got that ending and still think it's thematically better for her to kill him and fuck off, with the implicit suggestion their paths will cross again.What I objected to is the achievement accusing me of having 'failed as a mentor' when I prioritised the cohesion of the team over repeatedly making excuses to justify her fucking up
>>732216457It's baffling that people still fall for the same fucking Telltale lie.
>>732191914Came here to post this>>732192042Dating sim choices were so impactful fifteen years ago they made a hit manga and anime about it: TWGOK
>>732216579Can I ask why? Other than just waifubait?
>>732216652Why what? Why I love Dispatch? Because it's sincere.
>>732202147>>732206228>>732216387>she's literally whatever race/body/face/personality that I imagine she is!!! SO COOL!!!Schrodingers Invisigal strikes again
>>732191637Why is she acting sexy but also giving the middle finger?
>>732216585That was my experience. Even the most retarded leader would see that she's a liability. She doesn't come clean; she gets CAUGHT lying, she barely apologizes to Robert and goes into pity me mode, and she's impulsive. She might be fun to get a drink with, but I wouldn't depend on her.
>>732217587To add, sure she admitted to the Shroud shit, but left with the astral pulse because ???. It would make sense that she did it to protect Robert if Shroud didn't imply that she was working with him the entire time during the climax.
>>732210896I think the setting is just very poorly thought out like all cape shit. The writers just want to write the boom bap zap pow. They don't want to have to make it make sense.
>>732217736The ending is retarded for that and with it nothing makes sense. Writers are dumb.
>>732216457>choices don't matter>takes offense to getting the bad ending>clowns on "Character will remember that">complains about no UI element for actions that influence mentor pointslmao
>>732215031I played Mass Effect for the first time after Dispatch and thought I'd go for Jack, but then she talked about taking light years of cock in the prison in the Citadel bathroom and I dropped her for Tali___>>minor choices like whether you bought a certain weapon license carry across three fucking games to have an impact on the results of a questAnd this is just dishonest, it's a single war asset in 3, not even a quest, just few lines of bonus dialogue with Verner
>>732216756>Because it's sincere.Most retarded comment in the thread.>>732217585Because she's designed to appeal to men with abusive mothers.
>>732217952Probably for the best. I’m really not interested in “can Flambae be universal level?!” conversations about this game.
>dispatch thread that didn’t die instantly with actual activity>look inside>stealth e-celeb threadVideogames faggots, VIDEOGAMES
>>732218020>"it's bad when the game says that a decision that doesn't matter does, and also bad when the game says that a decision that does matter doesn't"Why is this hard for TTfags to understand? Just be honest about what the game is. Stop pretending that it matters which character of two is killed/fired in a mandatory choice, stop the game from playing itself if you ignore it rather than secretly punishing the player later, and stop pretending that the story has any sort of branching.
>>732201029 I think she really didn't think things through until after she was out of the gang, IE when she was in the car watching Bob explode. That's when things got real. She realized she might've killed an actual hero, and not some corpo muscle for hire or a shitty villain. That said, I choose to ignore Shroud's comment, it's just too messy in a bad way, it doesn't make sense for Visi to be a double agent at any point. Like other people said, it was either an oversight, leftover story beats, or just plain lies (by shroud)
>>732210609There are a couple of examples where you use Visi to bypass security measures in the game. The only way we see her getting detected is when Beef sniffs her out.I mean, even Shroud couldn't detect she was standing right in front of Robert.
>>732218594>when the game says that a decision that does matter doesn'tWhat game are you talking about?
>>732216585I disagree for the reason that while yeah, Visi is in reality just one member of a larger team, she is narratively speaking the focal point for the theme of redemption. She’s the one you spend the most time with and the one who shows the most visible changes in behavior based on Robert as a leader. Failing her should feel like a big fucking failure.I felt that the villain visi ending kind of flies in the the face of the whole narrative structure being about how (mostly) anyone can be redeemed if shown proper care and given the tools to succeed. Her villain ending should feel like failure, not “oh so cool she has a mask now, step on my balls, shiiiiit.”
>>732218290>spoiler Based.
>>732218791>spoilerChatGPT is not a modern security measure no matter what Microsoft support says. Motion and lasers sensors, maybe even thermal cameras depending on how exactly her powers work, completely nullify her stealth
>>732219491>Motion and lasers sensorsIf her powers work by letting light pass through her, then those couldn't detect her either, assuming that her powers extend even slightly past visible wavelengths.
>>732218335She can spit and punch me
>>732218898Except I didn't care about redeeming any of them. It was just a part of getting my suit fixed.
>>732219951Then why do you care about the game saying you failed as a mentor
>>732220168Say what you will about the choices not mattering, your final result in Dispatch remains an emotional maturity indicator.
>>732218898Probably comes down more to the shitty way the game decides whether she goes villain or not - I backed her every step of the way except decided not to keep her on the team because at that point she'd fucked it.In my view, if you make exceptions for her repeatedly, the other team members could easily think 'fuck it', and start fucking around more as well.It's clear the devs wanted Visi to be the focal point, but at the end of the day your job is to run the whole team and her repeated actions put the rest of the members at risk of failing to reform.She never shows any remorse or responsibility, so why should I allow her to stay on the team when it's almost guarantee she'll compromise everything again?Robert isn't there to babysit her, he's there to make the team a success, and if she can't do her part then she deserves to be cut loose.I found it ironic that the whole Robert/Phenomaman arc is about teaching him how to let go and move on, but Visi clearly has a far more toxic attraction to Robert than Phenomaman had to Blonde Blazer, but I'm supposed to just look past that and accept it if I don't choose to give in to her sexual harassment/assault?
>>732220917I think you’re supposed to look at it as Visi doing it for you/for the greater good. She’s TRYING to do the right thing, but it went south. There’s an added layer of her trying to be a team player for once, then no one backs her up. I mean sure, if she went off and did some stupid selfish shit, sure, can her. But she’s trying to get a super macguffin out of the hands of criminals. And the team’s reasoning isn’t even based on her actual actions or what happened to Chase, it’s “because she made us look bad.” So waifu shit aside, to me it was a pretty clear choice between picking up a teammate/student who tried and failed or trying to protect an image and appease people in the short term.
Honestly it's a good thing that it lets you not focus in IG if you don't want too, I would've enjoyed the game far less otherwise.>>732218020This is by far the worst part of his video, he can't seem to get across if he's mad that choices don't matter, or that they do and it doesn't hold your hand with paragon or renegade point pop ups.
>>732221312This being said, the margin for error being so narrow for Visi’s hero points being so tightly tied to you having extra from her romance route is a little goofy, but what can you do, no game’s perfect.
>>732221487According to my numbers:You need 45 points for Visi to be a heroIf you fail all her QTEs, and pick all the negative choices for her, you're left with -2 in points.You get one point per successful mission with her, and 5 for her skill training. You'd need 42 missions, plus the skill training to counter the story choices, and you get roughly 89 missions during the game (not counting the shifts where she's gone, and I'm not too clear on the exact numbers I wrote since it's been a while)The problem comes from people naturally failing and picking some weird choices that don't add to her points. That said, you can very easily make her a hero without romancing her.
>>732191959The ending was so bad fans vandalized Bioware forums and brought Stanley Loo jannie to a complete meltdown.Good old bad times.
>>732215031>/v/ is so contrarian it actually defends ME3 now
>>732222663I think they made it a little easier after the game came out too didn’t they? Or is this based on that adjustmentAnyway it’s still pretty much just “be competent and compassionate” and boom, new super hero in the world.
>>732222837The multiplayer was so good it became worth defending again.
>>732191637>>732192042here's your choice bro
>>732222824You dislike ending?
>>732220168I don't.I didn't even know that achievement existed, I pirated it.
>>732221312>Visi doing it for youThis is exactly the problem though - her attachment to Robert is completely compromising her ability to perform as a member of the team.If you embrace her advances you can kind of hash that out and 'fix' her, but if you turn her away it's clear that the healthy option is to cut her loose and create some distance so she doesn't keep doing reckless shit to earn Robert's affection. In my view, it's exactly because you've invested so much more time in her at that point than any other member of the team, yet she does literally nothing to show that she's making any progression up until the point you can choose to cut her.It feels pretty clear to me that Visi doesn't go on the suicide mission to get the AP for 'the greater good', it's because she wants to prove to Robert that she would do pretty much anything for him - it's an incredibly selfish impulse and shows she hasn't learned anything despite your best efforts.
>>732191914thank god i dont know what you are talking about
>>732223887Thank you adhoc
>>732224230I guess we just disagree what progress looks like thenShe functions as a member of the team for most of the story past episode 2, she helps Robert understand how the team views him and how he can gain their trust, and she comes up with a plan for the team to pool their resources and be proactive about doing something good (not for pay this time), and decides to put her own ass on the line. If you really pay attention to her actions, she responds to every single one of Robert’s criticisms of her in their first argument and tries to improve. I mean she’s certainly not Wonder Woman yet but for the like month this game takes place in, it’s pretty big stuff.I guess it also comes down to how you interpret what the Z team is supposed to be. If you want them to be that world’s justice league or whatever then she’s not ready, but none of them really are. If you want it to be a rehabilitation program, that shit does in fact often require 2nd, 3rd, and 4th chances.
>>732223887The septum piercing is the attractiveness-equivalent of weighted clothing. Something kneecapping you that you can easily remove
>>732225205If it wasn't for her relentless sexual pursuit of Robert, I'd probably agree with you - but it genuinely felt to me that all the positive actions you see from her are an attempt to earn his affection than doing the right thing or being a team player.Felt pretty clear from the way she is written and the comparitive depth she had compared to Blonde Blazer that she was the devs' preferred option and I agree the whole rehabilitation thing makes more sense if you become involved with her.If you don't, her actions just come across as increasingly toxic.I think the rest of the team make a very reasonable point when they indicate that Coupe/Sonar were let go for far less, so how can you justify playing teacher's pet with Visi?I don't really buy the whole 'Visi needs the most attention so deserves endless second chances because it's the only way to fix her' when your job is to run a team, but the devs clearly didn't really care much about your relationship with the other members of the team/couldn't implement it because these visual narrative game structures don't really work when you have to make choices that apply to more than one or two people.
>>732191914Was gonna post it. lol.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W2He9z3w3Ibut it really can be summarized as "I don't like telltale 'games'"So when are we getting the next Korra video?
>>732218290>And this is just dishonest, it's a single war asset in 3, not even a quest, just few lines of bonus dialogue with VernerCompletely wrong. It's a quest that can only be completed with a good outcome if you have several imported decisions from the previous games, including buying a specific weapons license, getting enough of a certain collectible, and doing specific unrelated sidequests.>but it's just a war assetAnd Telltale games just give "X will remember that" and nothing else.>>732222837And this attitude is why we're not going to get good games again, because it's against the rules to argue against "the narrative", it's impossible to point to what was a bad game in 2012 and realize that it's actually miles better than a "good game" in 2025. We're already at the point where correctly blatantly wrong info about a bad game is "defending" it and thus illegal. So now we have "choice-based" games that can't fucking keep track of what little choices you're allowed to make.
>>732216215In Dispatch you get different flavors of the same story. Detroit properly braches in extreme ways. It isn't the same thing.
>>732215548I concur, the memes were epic
>>732194965I don't know man, maybe the Steam store page?
>>732226483this is canon
>>732198604>Keep Hank Alive>Keep Connor LoyalThey'll kill each other>Hank dies>Connor LoyalPrologue cop returns>Hank dies>Connor goes rogueHave to solo the hq>Hank livesHe can appearMultiple plotlines can be cut short due to that character dying. It's pretty cool.
>>732201029Her augments obviously still work because of every scene where she holds her breath for an impossible amount of time.But the ending to Dispatch is just a mess, objectively.
>>732201258My brief research in Archive of our Own has had me come to the conclusion that vore, cockvore, unbirthing, and various related fetishes are all due to extreme mental illness.
>>732226159>It's a questIt's few lines of dialogue that rewards you with 5 (five) war assets in a game where you finish with thousands of them. A single multiplayer promotion gets you more war assets than collecting all the shitty ME1 collectibles does - and that's the only reason the quest is in the game, they realized all of the ME1 collectibles were pointless and this was the easiest fix. In fact every single choice throughout the trilogy just comes down to whether you get 50 or 60 war assets in 3 at the end of it's chain, which is completely irrelevant since you're gonna meet the best ending requirements by just doing Omega and Leviathan>And Telltale games just give "X will remember that" and nothing elseVisi having two different endings is twice as many as Trans Effect has KEK
>>732226073>but it really can be summarized as "I don't like telltale 'games'"This statement pisses me off because of the assumption that you don't like Telltale games if you don't like zero gameplay in your game, if you don't like being lied to about how many of your choices have any consequence, or if you don't like insufferable quirk chungus insincere dialogue. Because there's absolutely no reason why those problems can't be fixed. There was nothing stopping Dispatch from being as good as (if not better than) TWD S1 other than the devs themselves not being willing to change shitty habits. There is absolutely no reason why we couldn't have had a version of Dispatch with game overs, with actual multiple endings instead of just "Invisigal is a cunt" vs. "Invisigal is slightly less of a cunt", with small changes to indicate character development in response to the player's actions, etc. The mentality of "oh that's just what Telltale games are like get over it" is stifling so much potential.
>>732226065Fair enough, the sexual aspect does kind of make it a little seedier (they don’t call it hr violation simulator for nothing). I will note that when Visi says “I just wanted you to look at me like you look at Blazer,” I think it’s the more accepted interpretation that while on its surface it seems like she means it romantically, she really does mean she wants to be seen as a hero (given her jealousy of “hero powers”). We’re sort of given to understand that Robert is the gold standard of heroes, and her friend, so it’s sort of like “hey if he believes in me, then it’s legit.” So I take her at her word about actually wanting to be better, thirsty or not. Team has a fair point about the cutting thing too but that shit was out of my hands, Visi wasn’t. Take it up with management/the writers’ room Z-team, not my fault. We needed a big telltale choice, sorry.I dunno maybe I’m just a moralfag but I didn’t think “she made us look bad in the press” and “what about that one time mom made you cut the other guy” were good enough reasons to cut somebody who’s come so far.
>>732223887Again, don't care what the image references, Blond Blazer should have worn dark lingerie to contrast her lighter skin.
>>732226764>It's few lines of dialogue that rewards you with 5 (five) war assets in a game where you finish with thousands of them.And that's still more than what any Telltale game has accomplished.>In fact every single choice throughout the trilogy just comes down to whether you get 50 or 60 war assets in 3And every single choice in a Telltale game comes down to how many "X will remember that" notifications you get.Attempting to quantify the value of a narrative choice by how many good boy points the game awards is idiotic, so why are you bothering? Why is the standard for ME3 or any other non-Telltale game "every single choice must lead to a significant impact on the ending"? Why are Telltale and its successors the only ones exempt from this criteria? Why is the standard so low for them, and for no other game?>Visi having two different endings is twice as many as Trans Effect has KEKWhy are you lying? Who do you think you're fooling? Do you think that pretending that ME3 was worse than it actually was is somehow going to make Pisspatch any better?If you're not willing to go into the actual flaws of ME3's ending, or address the flaws in Dispatch, why are you even pretending to argue?
>>732227347To be fair there's a lot of reasons one can have for cutting her, for me it was simply."You didn't listen to my request to not jump into this right away and it nearly got Chase killed, this is not the first time you've done stuff on your own and got others hurt, You are done."
>>732191637She needs to be stuffed with a BBC
>>732194965>>732226489>shill doesn't know the game he shills forlmao
>>732191637Has there ever been a multiple-choice story game where your choices actually matter?Do we need AI in order to actually make it a reality?
>>732228502It's funny how games like Witcher 3 that have much more going on, have choices that matter way more.
>>732228358It's the Telltale Effect. Their games are simultaneously unprecedentedly great narrative experiences with amazing interactivity, and also just linear stories that don't need to be anything other than linear stories and you're an entitled weirdo if you expect any sort of branching path or alternate route.
>>732228502Funnily enough, Detroit: Become HumanChrono Trigger if you go back enough (you can let Crono stay dead and get a completely different ending, if you die to Lavos you get a bad ending, all the NG+ endings and so on)
>>732228685And that's not mentioning stuff like choosing to spare Magus or have Frog duel him to the deathChrono Trigger did a lot more with way less
>>732200713ADHD impulsiveness compounded by a physical disability that runs counter to her power and a shit life doesn't really foster good adjustment and attitude.
>>732228808>>732228685It's easier to come up with alternative scenes for multiple choices when you use sprite graphics and text. If you made a true "choices matter" Telltale-style game, it would take years and years to make and take more than 100gigs to fit all the myriad potential scenes and voicelines.
>>732212776I really feel like if they didn't have budget and time constraints, the whole Coupe/Sonar situation would have been one of the actual "meaningful choices" you can make by not have either of them leave.Because as it stands now, it just makes Robert look like a massive hypocrite if he chooses to defend Visi and not kick her off, especially if he's porking her.
>>732229045And that's fineJust don't sell it as YOUR CHOICES MATTER, it's very simple
>>732191637Your choices don't matter in real life.
>>732195151Gib Gibb gf
>>732229235Games are supposed to be better than real life.
>>732228502The best Telltale game in this regard that I played is the second Batman one. The last episode changes quite a bit depending on what you’ve done.
>>732228502Define "actually matter".David Cage games usually have a bunch of endings that are a result of the sum of choices made throughout the whole game, but the writing is so shit it's hard to care about more than one or two characters.The Mass Effect trilogy has hundreds of variables that have some sort of consequence by the end, with the ending choice putting the galaxy in one of four radically different states, but again, because that choice comes out of left field it doesn't feel like connected to anything you did before. And because all your choices are quantified with the war asset system, saving a life feels insignificant because you only get a few 'points' for that life.And then you have Telltale. At their best, they can make it feel like everything you do matters, even though none of it matters. Clementine was the best way they did this. By having an impressionable child observe your actions, every word you speak feels like it has tremendous weight.It's quite easy to have a game that goes completely off the rails in response to player choices. The first Persona game has the 'Snow Queen Quest', what amounts to a whole other secret game that you can access by making certain decisions, complete with an extra storyline, alternate party members, a different final boss, new villains, etc. And yet, it's not as emotionally impactful as "Clementine will remember that".Ultimately, these are just video games. It's only going to "matter" as much as you want it to matter, as invested as you get, and the more attention you draw to the mechanical aspects of your choices, the more disconnected you feel from the emotional core.The game that I personally think does it best is Silent Hill 2, mainly because there's no 'good' or 'correct' ending. You don't know you're making important choices as you play, you're hopefully entirely invested in the characters.The real answer is that it all matters as long as it matters to (You).
>>732229474>And yet, it's not as emotionally impactful as "Clementine will remember that".And then she doesn't or it doesn't matter, completely ripping the emotional part away
>>732226438And it all branches lead to different flavors of the robo rights movement and the battle for Detroit.
>>732226795Hi E;R, love the videos.

>>732232793>whataboutism>to defend ME3 of all thingswew lad
>>732216756Nothing about Dispatch is sincere. It's literally the past 10 years of ironic writing distilled into one semi-interactive movie.
>>732218020Choices don't matter, since none of your input actually affects the ending one way or another in 99.99% of cases. This criticism is perfectly valid.At the same time, the game actively hiding from you the fact that a tiny number of (non-story related) choices (aka the dispatch mission assignments) do in fact matter, is extremely poor game design. This too is a perfectly valid criticism. Now feel free to sperg out some more between gooning sessions to whichever of the two bitches you simp for you pathetic loser.
>>732218808Every single Telltale Game including Dispatch.
>>732233761>choices don't matter>b-but the ones that do matter don't countlmao
>>732233442I'm asking, what ME1 choices mattered for ME2?

Fact: Mommyfag passive subs who want the girl to do everything for them and who have never talked to a girl simp for Blazer, real go-getter assertive men who have experience with relationships and want to save the well meaning but low self esteem girl instead go for Visi.

>>732201029>THEN accepted Shroud's job as a double agent within Dispatch?She obviously wasn't, Shroud was just a retard and thought otherwise.
>>732191637Isn't it modeled after a Telltale game? AKA Your choices don't matter: The Company. Why the fuck would anyone be surprised?
>>732234387Fact: people who think they're gigachads for picking the BPD septum-piercing slut who acts like she's still 15 while pushing 30 and self-sabotages every chance she gets over the supportive and emotionally stable stacy with a successful career are actually just retarded
>>732234387>I can save her!Yeah totally not virgin thinking.
>>732234828>>732234832Like clockwork, kek.
>>732234832The virgin is the one who wants to be saved by the girl, AKA you. It's a man's job to be the rock she can lean on and make the retarded woman stop being retarded.
>>732234828>the supportive and emotionally stable stacy with a successful careerYou must be tired of hearing this, but you want a man. That's also why you never have any art of her real form, just the muscle abomination.
Virgin mindset is not figuring out that irl woman are fucking garbage And there's a reason why they didn't have any rights until this cucked era
>>732234968>the real virgin is the strawman, not me!LMAO
>>732211452
>>732232373I don't get beat up because I don't leave my house, but I am a skinny loser, so maybe I have a chance.
>>732235019Most of my reaction pic folder is of Mandy
>>732235795Now you just need to throw your entire life savings away to fight crime in a mech suit
>>732232373So you’re saying there’s a chance?
>>732233490It’s crude, not ironic.
>>732191637My choice not to play this shit means a lot to me actually
>>732191914the points system for Invisigal's ending is pretty odd
>setup blonde blaze path all game>gave into this bitch's kiss in the locker room
>>732237380>cheating on the 11/10 with someone who has a noseringliterally a downgrade
>>732237380Not very True Hero of you anon.
>>732191637Your choices do matter.
>>732237897I like it when Courtney is portrayed as a cuck
>>732235186excuse me why the fuck is that girl sexually assaulting super man
>>732239000
>>732239503Das da gud stuff
>>732214638The entire game is based around a point system that ultimately decides if you keep or reject key characters. It's technically not death, but it's a difference in story and effectively pretty similar.
>>732237897that was the worst part, I hate septum rings
>>732200950There's no indication that Visi killed anyone. She's a small time hood. The first time she's pushed into a situation where she might have killed someone, especially an innocent, she has a complete meltdown and tries to have a secular born again phase.
>>732210896Punch Up has really fast regen and can hit pretty hardThe scene where hes thrown by Golem, the wound fully regenerated less than a second after he removed the glass shardIn the comic hes shown to have minor super str by slamming Coupe into a wall hard enough to fracture it significantlyAnd his file says he has Picokinesis, meaning he can control his own density, so he can probably make himself light or heavy as fuckHes like a clawless Wolverine that can make himself immovable by most peopleHes probably the most lethal of the crew alongside Coupe (im surprised that Flambe has 0 homicides in his rep and only Arson)
>>732240158>feel bad about blowing up mecha man and almost killing him>join SDN so she can almost kill his childhood best friend too
>>732211270In fact if you dont romance her, her lines at the locker room become even more obvious that she wants to be admired like people admire Blaze, she wants to feel that shes not a lowlife burden to everyone
>>732228502I mean, how would you even make it? You'd have to balloon the budget by multiple times to make all the extra content only some will ever experience. Let's not get into the fact most people don't finish the games they buy even when it's a totally linear storyline.The only true choices matter game out there are full Text only LLMs CYOAs. And even the AI still tends to railroad you, for some reason.
>>732237897This should have been a thing including the dinner date
>>732240980I'm pretty sure it's implied Visi spied on you in the locker room because she asks if you're decent during the house party the same way BB asks in the locker room
If they make a sequel, I really hope that Visi isn't wearing the nose ring anymore. I'd just love the implication. that she isn't a troubled attention-seeking slut anymore and can humbly present herself in public without it
"artists" just don't draw girls the way I like them.
>>732240851>>732241442>>732241715>armpit hairkill yourself
>>732241983a little hair never hurt anybody
I always knew armpitfags were pajeets, this is proof.
>>732242191post a picture of your skin tone, mud slinger
>>732214294Pretty sure her second tier talent is giving everyone she goes on a mission with double XP. She was sent on a mission basically on cooldown for me.
>>732243109I wish Visi had more "auto succeed if you picked Visi" missions. Just having an option exclusive to her to pull through.
>>732243303that would be unnecessary because she's the best support in the game. you can get all her stats to 5/6 if you level her up max and give all your end of shift bonus points to her. once you get the double xp trait it's rare you'd send her alone, but if you did she'd do well unless there was an issue because she'd definitely fail the stat check. they usually require stats of 10 by the late gamevisi is the one character you'd want as an all rounderthis is all inconsequential though it doesn't matter just watch the movie lmao
>>732228502AI is of no use there because on-the-fly generation is capped by the amount of things the machine can remember (so that choice has consequence), that is to say: available memory. The best you can get is probably CYOAs of "Cave of Time" variety, where every single choice throws you into a completely different situation. Of course, without the ability to replay the same story in a daterministic manner, the concept of "choices" doesn't really work with AI text adventures.
>>732244746>2 INT
>>732222824RINE END HERE
What really grinds my gears is that while all these moviegames (literally, not just sony staples) get hyped up by morons with learning disabilities, story-heavy text-based games are like an undead genre. At least rogueli*e arguments keep ye olden dungeon crawlers at the forefront of everybody's mind, but it is a fucking miracle to get anything above VN (with actual routes) levels of complexity. RPGs have a fuckton of combat mechanics, but when CYOAs end up with no bad ends or unique interactions then you question what's the point.I understand the niche perfectly well, and am willing to trudge through itch for a chance to find something new. But between Alexis Kennedy's pace and the absolute nadir of quality that is CoG, it is disheartening to see streamerbait banking on (and succeeding with) full voiceover.
>>732246270>it is disheartening to see streamerbait banking on (and succeeding with) full voiceover.well it's the animation really. with this animation quality you could get anyone to voice the characters and people would be interestedthough obviously fuck all of the youtubers they shoved in to market this game
>>732209142gib chocolate milkies
>>732246550Anon, I assure you vidya animation is lost on most every retard, so most of vidya players. Just last year I heard escaped mental patients who said stuff like HOLLOW KNIGHT IS JUST A FLASH GAME because they have never seen a thick outline. How much have you heard of Thunder Lotus games, or HiFi Rush that wasn't just TANGO IS KILL, or Gravity Circuit, or Art of Vengeance? Animation quality is not a selling point.And if your point was about the slightly cartoony but mostly appealing capes, then it only highlights how stupid the general understanding of animation is. Basically the same phenomenon that compelled idiots to call Netflixvania "anime" for some reason. Guess the latest generation has never seen a realistically proportioned human animated outside of Japan.
>>732247015> Animation quality is not a selling pointignorant twat
>>732247807Did you miss the sentence preceding that? I'm talking about the masses, obviously, the people who will never say DUDE THE ANIMATION THERE IS SO SICK YOU GOTTA CHECK IT OUT.
>>732247015>>732247986I was the anon you replied to and I dont agree. you say you're talking about the masses and then also conflating them with animation enthusiasts. you seem to want to condescend to other people so I'll put it in your terms: a shiny sparkling thing in front of people is going to attract themit's the combination of the voice actors and animation that made Dispatch so popular, it wouldn't have been nearly as popular if it was missing one of these. I don't see how you can disagree with that. I'm just personally saying that I think more people liked how Dispatch looked then whatever internet celebrity they learnt was attached to it. that was just icing on their slop cake for them
>>732248523>you seem to want to condescend to other peopleWell duh. If I didn't want to grandstand about how my tastes are too refined for the unenlightened masses, I wouldn't make the post at all. Admittedly, I did focus on technial "animation" needlessly when it boils down to "wow cool cartoon".Though I myself don't believe e-celebs thmeselves are that much of a factor, but the simple fact that a game has FULL VOICEOVER. There is a group of people who really can't stomach reading, and you can bet I'm gonna condescend to them.
>>732249175So this is all just so you can feel better about yourself. Pretty fucking pathetic if you ask me lmao
>>732249885>shame there is so few good text games and it's these faux-reactive moviegames that get all the traction>So this is all just so you can feel better about yourselfThis your first day on /v/ or something? Have you never heard another man bitch and moan? I mean if I could pluck the objective correct position from beard of God, I would try to, but you'll have to endure my own opinions until then.
>>732207237I found his performance to be too monotone. I understand he's supposed to be depressed but his lack of emoting really soured me on the character.
>>732218791None of that would invalidate a modern motion sensor which is not relying on visuals.
I will probably never play this but invisibitch is hot
>>732194063>indoctrination theoryWas the greatest cope in recorded history and I loved it.>RIP Maruader Shields>He died trying to save us from the ending
Games just need to include H-game related elements now these days. Get both the normie and coomer markets. Just one chapter with uncensored Invisigirl giving head or doing anal would have made this game of the year hands down.
>>732191914>Look at comments>Majority of them didn't play the game or even e;r's playthrough of the game and are parroting things outright untrue or not in the game>>732192194I do prefer the game just being a VN rather than the Twd bullshit of "DRAMATIC LIFE AND DEATH CHOOSE ONE TO LIVE" and 10 minutes later they kill the other character just to return to status quo, yanking your dick that your choice will "matter" longer than 10 minutes. In a way, Dispatch is superior because you actually keep coop/sonar the rest of the game, when I got to the cut I 100% expected the person I kept would die the next episode just because that's the entirety of TWD. Don't give me the "X will remember this" and just let it ride as a nice looking VN and I'll be hype for a sequel.
>>732194063I love all the "The ending was actually fake" fan theories trying to cope with shitty endings. We JUST saw it again with Stranger Things where the ending was so lazy and scatterbrained people thought there was no way it was real and the mindbending evilman was giving them a false happy ending that made no sense
>>732234193How about whether Wrex is alive? Who's councilor, is the old council alive?
>>732210970It's definitely clear the story originally was a show instead of a game, the favoritism and the focus is prime material for a show, just "obvious" when in a game format.
>>732202147Given it's LA she's probably mixed Hispanic and white.
>>732226795Anon, If I buy a game by former cod devs I'll expect the game to be cod, if I buy a game from former bioware devs I expect it to be about trannies.No one saw Dispatch and thought it would be anything other than a movie game with slightly varying dialogue at best.
>>732244746>Blond Blazer>cock and ball torture 8RIP
>>732254323if you romance her you're just going to have to accept that broken hips are going to be a part of life
>>732191637My choices led me to fuck visi.Fuck off, it doesn't matter.
>>732251597Dispatch is both safe horny and safe edgy, there's nothing provocative anywhere to be foundcan you get some taste though. that's not what visi looks like
>>732201029She's just retarded and she likes sturring up dramas.I'm just happy I picked Mandy instead, because holy fuck, is that whole Invisigal plotline contrived.
>>732254667Nah. Mandy is actually a soft and delicate Disney Princess, so there will be a lot of cuddling involved.Because she's no longer Blazer by the end of the game.
>>732244816>AI is of no use there because on-the-fly generation is capped by the amount of things the machine can remember (so that choice has consequence), that is to say: available memory.Maybe not currently, but memory is not an issue that's unique to LLMs. Remembering things is still a practical limitation when GMing for D&D. It's still an issue when writing stories in general.
>>732256412
>>732234387You sound like a virgin."I can fix her" type of girl is actually the last person you wish to date in real life, because they just have a tendency to poison your life.
