I agree she is amazing, but Andrew Wincott’s Raphael is just so phenomenal, for me it’ll only ever be him.
Outside of BG3, I guess I would also say Claudia Black, Jennifer Hale and Lenval Brown (the narrator of Disco Elysium, he is so good!).
Ragnarok Online. Before the third jobs, and without donation items and high rates. I played on the kRO server for a while and afterwards for many years on a 5/5/3 private server. I still remember how it felt, the first time I played it. Never found anything like it again.
Now, I’ve played a lot of amazing games and some of them really hit me in the feels, but this was the first MMORPG I played, ever. I was like what, 15? when I started playing and I played this game with the same people, for years. In the same guild, over Ventrilo, I knew these people. From all over the world, we’d even set alarms and such to make sure people were there when WoE started and half of us were sleeping due to time zones, or to make sure we could keep the MVP boss schedules. Some of us even met in real life, we talked off-game as well. We grew up together, quite literally, from teenager to adult. It’s not surprising it left such a mark, I guess. Nowadays… well I’ve tried MMO’s but it just isn’t like that anymore.
I only have to listen to the soundtrack, music from Prontera or Amatsu, and boom, nostalgia!
F.E.A.R. has such good enemy AI. It’s an amazing shooter.
Still, I’ve only ever played it once, because I’m a big wuss and scary is not my thing, I just can’t do it again. Alma is fucking creepy and the entire atmosphere gives me nightmares.
But yeah, for anyone who enjoys shooters, F.E.A.R. is a great one.
Yup. This is the answer.
Not to be thát person, but Archduke Franz Ferdinand was not a Serb, he was Austrian. Even though Austria-Hungary did annex Bosnia and Herzegovina in the late 19th century, Franz Ferdinand was not born there - in fact he was born before the annexation.
Unless you mean his killer, but then your wording is a little off and I would say “murder BY a Serbian.” Even so, the ethnicity of the murderer wasn’t really as important as his target. ;)
I looked up Michaelmas because I had never heard of it. And it’s exactly what I initially thought it was (and exactly what it sounds like): a celebration of the archangel.
You’re right, always good to have a buffer.
The load time on this is insane. But I got it signed! Not that it really helped much, both my own country and my country of residence had already reached the threshold.
But still, it’s about time for an EU-wide ban on this barbaric shit.
Disco Elysium is, without a doubt, the best written game I’ve ever played. That game had me experience the entire rainbow of emotions.
English, German, French, Dutch, Finnish.
With a bit of effort I might get pretty close in Spanish or Latin, but I’d probably make some mistakes, so that doesn’t count.
Yeah, it’s been that way for decades. You just empty the jar/bag into the machine and it sorts/counts everything automatically, and then you can transfer the amount to your bank account.
When I was a kid I used to love this. We’d go sell stuff at flea markets and then take the bag of coins to the bank. Watch number go up, yay.
600k? You dropped some zeros there. It’s $600,000,000.
He’d have to go a lot higher than 10k p.p. to even make them consider it, so that’d be billions. Luckily he has millions of tax payers who can fund his little obsession!
Only things like airport security, or when going to music festivals or other events, they’ll (sometimes) check you for weapons.
Lived in 4 different countries in the past decade, all in the EU.
Oh that’s a good one, yes. It’s something that costs you time and you get absolutely nothing in return.
Another one would be how they leave their (public) toilets behind. “That’s what cleaners are paid for.” No fuck off. – Though of course this one would be a little harder to actually witness. ;)
I’m very intolerant of behavior that tells me type of people they are. For example throwing garbage on the floor, or being unkind to serving staff, or something like that. Red flags for sure.
And of course there’s the obvious stuff that is an instant deal breaker, like bigotry, being anti-vax, hating cats (or animals in general), right-wing politics, etc.
Yeah, don’t worry, I get it. Just thought I’d give a possible explanation. ;)
Seems to me this person might be German (considering the username as well) and used the German word by accident.
You know what? I understand the feeling. But then I realize that the poor guy waiting for a kidney is really not to blame for how fucked up society is.
Hmm, there are quite a few of those, I think. Let’s see.
Bioshock reveal. A man chooses, a slave obeys.
First time talking to Sovereign in Mass Effect, oh and the ending sequences from going through the Conduit and Sovereign attacking the Citadel, the Alliance fleet coming through. The cinematics and music were just so well done.
D:OS2, fighting Alexander when Battle for Divinity starts playing. Or the end fight, with Sins and Gods. The soundtrack was a delight.
The Witcher 3, the first time you arrive in Skellige, the landscape and the music, it just made me feel these things, it was beautiful.
The Deep Roads in Dragon Age:Origins, when Hespith starts reciting her poem and the Broodmother afterwards. Oh dear lord, I still remember the first time I was there, it was so fucking creepy. “First day they come and catch everyone.” Truly superb.
In Kingdom Come: Deliverance, when you’re forced to flee Skalitz, but you’re so incredibly noob that you can barely ride a horse, and you realize this game is different from many others, because you’re really just a nobody without any skills - and you’ll stay a nobody, pretty much. This entire game was a joy to me.
There are also some games that are entire masterpieces, where I can’t really pick a single moment but the entire game would count, for example Disco Elysium, a true masterpiece. This game made me experience the entire rainbow of human emotions. Another example would be Deus Ex, which to me will never get old, however bad the graphics might be.
Let’s stop here, before this turns into simply a list of my favorite games. :D
