ReplyDeleteGreat podcast! It's always fascinating to hear what quirky things people do in videogames. Much like Jorge, I'll almost always play as a female character when given the chance, I'm really not sure why.
ReplyDeleteJust a quick note, though. Patches, the NPC from Demon's Souls that Scott talked about, didn't actually disappear into the ether. Another NPC that you encounter in a cage earlier in the game secretly murders Patches and everyone else in the hub world if you set him free. He is a huge jerk.
hmmm, player quirks I have...
ReplyDeleteWell, I used to feel like I had to do everything, but now, I'm incredibly focused on TIME optimisation, not resource optimisation. So as much as possible in many games, I'll avoid doing anything I don't have to do, or doesn't benefit me more by doing than otherwise.
Wait, so you're telling me that I didn't miss out on my revenge, but was actually robbed of it?! That's even worse! :-)
ReplyDeleteThe older I get, the more I find myself doing something similar. So many things to do/games to play, so little time!
