Staff's... breakability
Re: Staff's... breakability
Yes, it's funny how Computer-game logic can throw someone off whenever they get a more realistic game in their hands...
"WTF WTF I JUST DIED FOR NO REASON WTF WHY IS MY CHARACTER GOING SO SLOW HE WASN'T EVEN HIT ONCE WTF WTF"
"..Dude... He hadn't eated for ten days... what'd you expect?"

Realism
Well, most computer games don't include the more tedious aspects of reality. So it comes as a surprise when you encounter a game that does. Just imagine...Glabbit wrote:Yes, it's funny how Computer-game logic can throw someone off whenever they get a more realistic game in their hands...

It would be better if it'd break in half, allowing you to use the pieces as individual weapons.Lotus Wolf wrote:ummm.... in my {epically vast} experience with traditional stick fighting, classic staff combat and basic bo-stick usage, the breakability is very realistic. i wouldn't change it, the realism of this game (other than anthropomorphic mammals) is part of what makes it the best ever!

I think that's a bit too obscure... Even in RL I don't worry about that too much.Zhukov wrote:"WTF WTF ... WTF WTF"

Re: Realism
They're pretty much games about you controlling civilisation through the ages from around 3000 or 4000 BC or something like that. It basically features some of the more mundane aspects of life on earth, and was actually a huge Turn-Based Strategy hit. I never play Turn-Based Strategy games, and I rarely play Real-Time Strategy games, so I wasn't into it, but I can accept it's considered a fantastic game by many.Zhukov wrote:I'm afraid your point is lost on me; I never played any of the civ games.
It is Sid Meier, after all.
Re: Staff's... breakability
It's more fun if you show them a game with even less realism.

WTF WTF I just fell over and died. "dude what'd you expect you ran one of your feet into the other and tripped and rammed your nose into your brain when you hit the ground." for obscure realisms sake.

Re: Staff's... breakability
i think players/developers would expect their character to know how to move his legs properly though...
Re: Staff's... breakability
Or a numberish game.
"Why did I die? What does this number mean!?"
"The bad guy punched you in the face so hard you exploded instantly."
"BUT HE'S A FLEA!"
"He also rolled a 20."
