Hygenist you're a blind commie if you don't think it has deep lore.

That's not even a matter of opinion, it does in fact have deep lore, that spans across eight games I think, and like ten books?

Also yes, Destiny>All for me right now.

That beta was just omg amazing.


Bungies running out of idea though because the antagonists for Destiny were pretty much clones of the covies and the Flood with a few slight differences.

Sims 2 is a loreless sandbox which is cool and all but you really can't compare it to a lore focused FPS.

ur opinion froob.

It actually is a nice example of how religion can cause unnecesary hate between peoples and can lead to things such as mass gen0cide.

That and the character dev can be pretty nice for a lot of the characters.

Except for their not doing such a great job at making the MC deeper so far.

one of my favorite parts was when a friend of mine showed up and we began kicking ass

then the game started unloading tons of enemies i had never seen before on us

hallowed, cursed, chosen, revered [i feel like i spelled that wrong], etc.

plus this high level boss i had never seen before

it had practically as much health as a devil walker and could one shot kill you

also

the enemies were everywhere, so there was nowhere to wait for you health to regen



tl;dr - me and a friend were doing good, then the game decided to fuck us up the ass



you're tearing me apart lisa

Also, "lore-focused FPS"? Are you serious? It's a videogame. That means gameplay first, story second. It is in no way focused on its lore.

You obviously have not played the games yet, and if you have you seemed to have missed the campaign button and/or not played it.

And IF you have you obviously have skipped the cutscenes and didn't pay attention to any of the characters while playing...

Hygenist, I mean, pls, because this isn't lore focused, that's the entire opening scene to halo 2:

Also Riku, Ikr? The bosses were freaking great in Destiny, which is one of my favorite parts in the game.

Pulse rifle and class abilities are WAY too OP tho.

@romuluz

A story is more the afterthought in a game. It's designed gameplay up. If you think it is any other way, you obviously know nothing about game design. I can't believe I have to spell this out for you, but if it's not made with the story in mind first, it's main focus is not the lore.

No.... You couldn't be farther from the truth...

games like that where the story is an afterthought are for games that are NOT lore centered or are just bad. Halo could not have been possibly made if it's storyboards were not well thought out.

Oh, yeah, that's another thing.

While developing the halo's the developed an entire storyboard and backstories for all of the games and characters BEFORE they really began developing the game. So I do believe that little bit of info right there destroys your entire argument.

Oh, and here's another well thought out cutscene.

And on top of that, there was talk for a while about making an entire blockbuster movie taking place during the events of Halo 3. They even were able to develop ten minutes of said movie before Microsoft got greedy and pulled the plugs, using the footage as a promotional stunt for Halo 3.

I think Halo has always focused on it's story more rather than the gameplay overall; hence why there is multiple books, guides, and videos to open up the player's/reader's mind to the universe.
