Was she ever right about anything?
>she
Secret's out, it was Burger Bill/Becky.
She called out Might and Magic 2 turning into number crunching autism, with battles against 255 enemies which have 65535 HP each.
You guys need to stop making these obscure threads about literal who games/characters/reviewers/whatever that is without providing some context
>>12085858It's true, Burger made Bard's Tale, Dragon Wars, Wasteland, HOMMIV, etc. She would know.
>>12085927You guys need to stop making these gay threads about literal faggots, stupid niggers Fixed it
>>12086002Well that’s a given
>>12085927You need to not click on topics that you know nothing about. Educate yourself.
>>12085927https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scorpia_%28journalist%29 here u go
>>12085795Just going off of memory, she was right about a lot of things, but was past her prime a few years before she got canned.
>>12085795Scorpia was based. I subscribed Computer Gaming World in mid 90s to late 90s. Scorpia's Tail was the first one I checked every time I received the magazine.
>>12085795She was generally correct most of the time, and a blithering idiot at some points, like when she criticized Darklands for bugs, when really she just hated open-ended game design and preferred more structured, linear RPG's.
>>12086542Ah, yeah, that's when the editor undermined her review, right? I call bullshit on "she just hated open-ended games", because later on she really liked Daggerfall, which was both buggy and open-ended as fuck. Darklands really was just buggy as hell unpatched.
>eceleb, present >:(>eceleb, past :oNot video games
>>12086610>tuber reviewer on phone, present >:(>print reviewer in nice magazine, past :o
>>12086618the difference being? they moved magazines over to the internet because it makes more money and reviewers were always shills anyway so...
>>12086610Where the fuck else would you have this thread moron? Someone wants to talk about a VIDEO GAME reviewer from the past, this and /v/ are the boards where you would do so
>>12085927If you're curious then speak up and ask, or fuck off and shut up
>>12086732Nowhere you droolingn retard. Stop talking about idiots with opinions, don't you have any of your own?
>>12086762You are such a faggot. Saying this guy thought this, what do you think, is about the most normal thing you could do, discussing previously held ideas and adding new ones is like 90% of this website, but for some reason that is really hard to grasp for an autistic teenager like you
>>12086762you know opinions are meant to be pooled and shared, and accepted or otherwise contested? you're not supposed to just beat the drum of your own mind in a masturbatory manner, doing that just makes you a schizophrenic self-absorbed faggot who only enjoys echo chambers and the fragrance of his own farts. touch grass and watch a video and go play a video game, fagboy. then tell your friends about the good time you had not being a miserable loser who yells at clouds. seriously.
>>12086807>>12086809OK eceleb posting enabler. Don't come crying when the board is ruined.
>>12086967but in such a great state right now
>>12086973it's in* fuck
>>12086807Bro you murdered that anon
>>12086967Crying? Like you've been doing and all you've likely ever done? Yeah don't worry, I'm not gonna cry you a river any time soon.
>>12086575>Darklands really was just buggy as hell unpatched. Its UI was also a bit clunky, and it had a shitton of obscure mechanics (ex. everything about the saints). By contrast, Daggerfall was pretty straightforward, even if it displayed a humongous amount of bugs (including skills).
>>12087058Darklands has a cool manual and a cool map, but I played aimlessly in the 90s. I didn't know you can hunt cults and dragons until I read on the internet.
>>12087146 (still me)Ultima is open ended too but the missions are clear.Might & Magic is open ended too, just explore the map and go the nearest dungeons.
>>12087058It also received a patch before her review. Funny enough I personally liked Darklands and hated Daggerfall even though both are gimmicky simulation games, CGW just had shit editors.
>>12087146There's also very little indication of a main quest (defeat Baphomet) even existing. Which undoubtedly confused a lot of people at the time.
>>12086718You failed to follow the conversation, do better
