I hate to think there was a time in which this game could have been decent before it was utterly ruined fairly late in development.

Good? News. It was probably going to be aggressively mediocre. I have seen enough bad story ideas to know this one wasn't going to be anything special even before Druck pissed on it.

I'll take mediocre over something that lights the entire ip on fire.

This is a game I waited years for and I don't even want to play it at all now.

At least Mass Effect 3 waited till the final five minutes to go to shit instead of doing it in the first hour.

There's also the problem that the game has less gameplay than the previous installment. As a game there's actually less in this one than the original game made 7 years ago. Imagine playing a 20 hour game where perhaps a fifth of it is actually spent fighting enemies

Obviously I cannot prove it but Liara becaming a Sue and the Shadowbroker was another shitty attempt at subversion imo. She was the "nice girl" you could pick from the first game so they wanted to make her not so nice and also more capable going forward to try and make you feel...something.

She became the Shadowbroker in the second game and while a stretch of the suspension of disbelief it was fine. But in ME3 she's practically Shepard's sole confidant whether you romanced her or not.

The books is also how Kai Leng is introduced, and there's also a comic for how Cerberus took control over the criminal space station introduced in Mass Effect 2.

That just pissed me off more about Kai Leng. I did not give a whiff of a shit about the books and didn't need the game trying to tell me this space weeaboo fuckstick was a total badass. I honestly couldn't tell if he was supposed to be a parody or not when he first appeared.

Man if not for the ending Kai Leng would be the worst part of ME3.

I think the comparisons come in because ME3 was kind of similar situation where, allegedly, the newly minted lead writer and the producer locked themselves in a room and wrote the asspull of an ending without any input from any of the other writers. A lazy ending that was antithetical to everything that preceded it and punched plotholes into the story going all the way back to the first game (the weird anti-technology bent, making you wonder why the fuck Sovereign was keeping an eye on things if its boss existed in the Milky Way all along, the shitty motive given to the Reapers etc.)

But at least ME3 actually had some good shit in it. Kai Leng was a problem, the lack of focus on Reapers as the bad guys and the way over focus on Cerberus was a problem, Liara continuing her descent into Sueism was a problem, but if it actually had a good ending most of that would just be annoying but ignorable.

Lol, the worst part of ME3 is the entire game. The only difference between the parts that people think are great and the ones that are shit is fanservice/references to plot and characters in previous games. Tuchanka and Rannoch house some of the absolute worst writing in the game, and those are the parts people fellate to hell. Giant worm ex machina. The only reason you win those two sections is because space cthulhu was too retarded to send more than one ship despite having approx 10^shitzillion.

The game opens on spacechild playing with a toy. It was shit from the word go. Reapers invaded 10 mins later, meaning the last 2 games were pointless, since they could've just done that to begin with appearantly (despite the first game saying the literal opposite), and shot lasers at people and bumble about like fucking godzilla monsters, a practical use of mile long spaceships, instead of guarding the only way to escape the solar system, the mass relay.

The entire 'war' aspect of 3 is retarded, which is the entire game, once you realise nobody at any point does anything to defend or take over the relays, the only way to get to solar systems fast. This is all the first 3 hours of the game.

That's a very rude comparison, since She-Hulk is actually attractive.

The Evolution of SHE-HULK From Hot To Not

We take a look at the fun, sexy character than became a grim, grotesque beast.
filmgoblin.com filmgoblin.com

I can't even find some of the really bad shots. They basically turned her into an ogre with tits. Somehow even less feminine than the Hulk. And yes, now, instead of being a brilliant lawyer, she's barely smarter than Hulk. Because the idiots Marvel keeps hiring to fulfill diversity quotas and keep the woke rainbow hair she-twink intern handjobs coming don't actually know anything about comics, but they know you FUCKING WHITE MEN enjoy pretty women and smart women and she hulk, so they have to destroy her because FUCK YOU DAD.

Contrast the real She Hulk:

Pewds gets so many donations I doubt he actually reads all of them.
Would also like to add, I reccomend watching Aris' stream right now, he's still before the golfing scene and he's playing with the voice over mode that's for blind people to play, it makes the game even more hysterically bad having a MS Sam soundalike going over the entire game.

Oh god someone better make a compilation of that. Did he play the first one? He’s normally really blasé about nearly everything and I wonder if that might push him over the edge.

He's so badass that when he broke into Anderson's apartment, he stopped to have a bowl of the man's cereal. What an adrenaline junkie.

Actually in a post-apocalyptic situation with limited access to supplies, assfucking would likely become much more prevalent than vaginal, to reduce the odds of an unwanted and potentially deadly pregnancy. Even if you could find condoms in a wasteland you'd probably want to use them for more utilitarian things than keeping baby batter out of the oven. Just sayin, that might be one of the few things they got right in this shit heap of a game.
Click to expand...

I would think most women in this case would use their mouths first before offering up the pooper. Especially if the goal is keeping sperm away from the vagoo, enough comes out after and drips down into the vagina to cause risk. I recall a doctor giving a presentation one time stating that even he was surprised at the number of conceptions that came from rawdog anal sex with no vaginal contact.

Besides, even in a post-apocalypse I'm thinking that anal will still be something a guy has to pay for, or take by force unless they are in a relationship and she wants her boyfriend to fuck her even if it is uncomfortable-to-painful depending on how prepared you are to have cock in your rectum.

But in the context of this game, first sexual encounter between these two, he's drilling into hole #2 cos hole #1 dosen't exist.

A few more posts from TV Tropes:


"At this point, I'm going to ditch complaining about video games because there's bound to be a bunch motivated by sexism, transphobia, or racism. I was upset the possibility of Ellie dying but the vast majority of hate is:
  • Abby being trans [she's not, which is a shame]
  • The look of her [not being traditionally feminine]
  • Joel a "cis white male" (I saw that description a lot) not playing as big a role. Because he's dead."
"Truly it's sad when legit criticism is drowned out by morons."

"I think Ellie will be fine. There's other lesbians in the post-apocalypse sea. Let's be honest, the people REALLY butt hurt over it are that Drake (talking about Uncharted 4 here) lost to a woman of color."

"Yeah, emotions are very high right now and as tempting as it may be to write the most negative things possible, it’s not really constructive or ethical. So I second a temporary lock until cooler heads prevail. (about locking the YMMV page for the game)."

"I admit there's a certain amount of weirdness to people comparing this to the Count of Monte Cristo. While a few adaptations Completely Missing the Point exist, the lesson of that book is, "Revenge is frigging sweet." Honestly, though, I have no problem with this lesson because it's a very appropriate one for The Last of Us. It's always been a game about dealing with man's inhumanity to man."

" I’m not saying that people are not allowed to dislike gray area stuff, this is more towards people painting Abby as a complete villain which yeah...no. How’s she presented is with a motive and personality but her actions and whether or not they’re sympathetic, I was saying that it’s up to the player and from what I read, she has an understandable reason for doing what she did but I was also using TLOU dipping into “unsympathetic/the person is a clear villain” with the David and the cannibals. Which could explain the backlash from the 1% of “players” (in quotations because I doubt they finished TLOU 2)."

"So far, I *REALLY* like Abby and she may be rapidly approaching my Top 5 Video Game Gals that is almost exclusively RE girls and Bloodrayne so far. I just started, though."

Again, this seems to be the only place that actually has some people defending the game and Abby (along with dismissing some critiques as being bigoted).
