If, during your opening cinematic for a fantasy game, you name drop more than two people who aren't party members, you have failed.
NOBODY GIVES A SHIT.
Why are fantasy game intros so terrible? They are all terrible. It's a Wikipedia-quoting awkward nerd sperging out from one minute to five minutes. In my mind, everyone on the team thinks that the lead designer has written the most tedious shit in the world but they can't edit it or kill it or anything because he's the designer and will throw a cringeworthy tantrum if you try to make it something other than a bucket of rinds and text slop.
This is awful, the intro to the new Might & Magic game. This is embarrassing.
the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey! |

Is enemy level autoscaling the worst design possible? by Entropy Stew 01/29/2014, 9:04am PST
It felt like a lazy design choice by people who should know better. For unknown by RetroRomper 01/29/2014, 10:06am PST

I'll never understand why developers insist on ruining perfectly good... by Jerry Whorebach 04/23/2014, 2:16pm PDT
I think this problem may speak to a perversion of the core concept. by Jerry Whorebach 04/23/2014, 6:38pm PDT
What's your ideal save system then? by Lurker 410942 05/28/2014, 5:31am PDT

I don't think you should be taking RPG advice from a guy who doesn't play them. by Jerry Whorebach 04/24/2014, 9:06pm PDT
