What are things you'd do in VR if it was possible?
killamch89 and one other reacted to The Blackangel for a topic
It's just something I would kill to see. I also want to visit Easter Island, Machu Picchu, the Pyramids, a few specific Greek temples to the Gods/Goddesses, the Great Wall of China, Spedlins Tower, Ben MacDhui, Auschwitz, the Colosseum, Teotihuacan, Nazca Lines, Uluru, and see Mt. Everest just to name a few things.2 points -
The Story of Kingdom Hearts
killamch89 and one other reacted to HowHammerYou for a topic
The KH series is a perfect storm of "I didn't have a long-term plan for making this a series" colliding with "Hey this was successful, we want you guys making more of these games regularly". The sheer amount of fluff that was jammed into the storyline is never more obvious than when you consider that there was a gap of 14 years between the release of KH2 and its sequel KH3, but we were getting new KH games roughly every 2-3 years during that gap. Even though I love KH:BBS, I really do wish the handheld games had never existed due to the irreparable damage they did to the overall story. Anyhow I got what I wanted out of KH3 (Roxas and Xion finally being freed), so I'm done with the series unless they make another game where Roxas is the main character.2 points -
Violent Games and Teen Aggression Aren’t Linked?
killamch89 and one other reacted to Dannyjax for a topic
They can blame video games all they want but it doesn't change the fact that they are totally wrong and their so called research off chart with their half baked findings. A violent kid or a teenager is a product of how the parents brought the child up with things that happened in his or her life.2 points -
The forum's looking a lot cleaner and discussion is far easier to take part in now that the cliques have been mopped up. I look forward to finally being able to rejoin conversation rather than derailing one that's gone on for pages. It's not nice to see full pages of "you've chosen to ignore content from [x]," and I'm glad to see those running the place agree. I hope this message becomes loud and clear to any would-be points farmers that think this place is easy pickings. For now though, I commend the admin and moderation crew for making the tough - but absolutely necessary - calls to get rid of those users who had been frequently warned. All of this said, getting back to the original point: there is still room for a chat box or casual message space (see DarkSpyro's walls, etc.). This may well be the prevention before the cure that's needed. Otherwise, my feedback in other thread still stands. I appreciate that it's been acted upon.2 points

I must confess that I was very shocked when I got your PM because I never saw that coming. For a little time I have been here, @Shaggerhave only asked me once to rewrite one of my post as it wasn't clear for easy understanding which I did. Since then, I haven't gotten an warnings or directions on how to get my posting right. But in everything, I take your update from the PM in good faith and I will try my best to always write something meaningful whenever I'm here. @Shaggerplease always feel free to put me through whenever you see the need to.

All, I am working on some changes to address the above issues. Jasmin, Boblee, & Head-Hunter posting abilities have been permanently disabled. Heatman has been asked to take much needed 'cooling' off from VGR. I will temporarily disable his posting abilities if my instruction is not followed. I've sent firm PMs to Clasher, Dannyjax, & Aniekwe but have not yet taken action. I am giving them a chance to make a change and will be monitoring closely along with @The Blackangel and @Shagger As always, we look to the community for feedback. @Withywarlock @kingpotato @killamch89 @Yaramaki @Reality vs Adventure @Crazycrab etc etc Thanks for your patience and continued support of VGR.2 points

I'm putting this here because everyone needs to read this and this discussion needs to be reignited. This is about the recent conduct of one of our newer members @Jasmin and how it has lead to this post here. After making a comment like that, I was not going to allow @Jasmin continue to post on VGR without rescinding that comment and promising to put effort into her content on VGR. At the time of me typing this, she had not done so, but will update if she does. As most of you are aware, we have had trouble in recent weeks and months with people posting just up the count with little to no care over the quality, forethought and purpose of what they post, just putting up anything at all so long as it's a post. That's why this very thread exists. This behaviour has been going on for some time with many of our members and we have been trying to discourage it on VGR with mixed levels of success. Clearly, there is still work to be done. @Jasmin's attitude with regard to what is expected of people as part of this community and contributing to this forum is obviously wrong, but in her deference, I do not believe she is 100% at fault. The habits of too many people on VGR who post farm is what gave this person the impression that this how we're supposed do it on VGR. @Head_Hunter, @Heatman, @Justin11 and others, this is the fruit of your labour. It's your continued insistence on posting like this despite serval efforts on my part to make it clear posting in these spurts of posts in the dozens with 2-3 minute gaps between posts is harmful to the forum. Not only is it a bad example and a bad impression, but these post end up generic, soulless, badly written and virtually pointless and that's if there're on topic at all. These posts also tend to be made in the wake of little to no effort to actually read threads accurately, which not only leads to inaccurate replies, but is also very unfair to other members who actually put effort into what they post. The bare minimum VGR members deserve is to have thier posts read and understood before someone replies to them. EVERONE deserves at least that on VGR. But because of long term members who continue to post in this unhelpful manner, this is what newcomers to the forum like @Jasmin think they are supposed to do, that this is what is expected. I'd say @Dannyjax, @Aniekwe and @Clasher, like @Jasmin are also newcomers to the forum who are also starting to follow the same path and this is very worrying. Trust me, this is not what we want. This has to stop, now. I'd recommending once again that @DC alter the way points are offered to not reward this behaviour, but what we really need is people to go back through this thread, read what people are saying, take the advice on board and post like you care, unlike @Jasmin. And if you're reading this @Jasmin, I asked only the same of you. All I really wanted you to do is understand your perception of what people are expected to do is wrong. Still, it's you choice to come back or not, but if you do I want to see a new attitude.2 points

The Story of Kingdom Hearts
Reality vs Adventure reacted to Slimybug for a topic
So as a massive Disney fan, I finally decided to delve in to the 20-year old game Kingdom Hearts. Only to find the story is nigh-indecipherable. So I've prepared a LENGTHY post showing my confusion in the first third of the game alone! And I'm told this is the SIMPLEST story of the games! Chapter 1: Destiny Islands Sora, Riku, and Kairi are friends on an island called Destiny Island. They talk about how Kairi is from another town, and how they want to travel to see what else is out there. They talk about “other worlds,” saying things like “If there are other worlds out there, why’d we end up on this one.” This makes it very confusing what they’re talking about. Are they just talking about other places, beyond the sea, or do they already know about the literal other worlds that will factor into this story? I’d like to know more about these characters and the world they already inhabit, and how much they know of the world, or worlds, outside it.Heck, Sora has a mother there that makes a brief voice appearance, only to never be heard from again! Meanwhile, in a kingdom ruled by King Mickey, the king departs unexpectedly, only leaving a note. “Not sure why, but the stars have been blinking out, one by one. And that means disaster can’t be far behind. I hate to leave you all, but I’ve got to check into it. There’s someone with a “key.” The key to our survival. So I need you and Goofy to find him and stick with him. Got it? We need the key or we’re doomed. So go to Traverse Town and find Leon. He’ll point you in the right direction.” Okay, so clearly Mickey knows more about what’s going on here, like what this key is and why it’s their salvation, but he doesn’t say, and I’m not sure its ever explained. Goofy and Donald get in a “gummi ship” to go to a place called Traverse Town, taking with them Jiminy Cricket. Jiminy says his world has disappeared. So it seems that when a star blinks out, a world goes with it, indicating these worlds are different planets we’re going to be travelling to. Still, Goofy & Donald talk about how they can’t let on where their from to protect the “World Order.” Then one day on Destiny Island, a darkness overtakes the land, with a giant black orb floating above it. Riku cryptically states “The door has opened. Now we can go to the outside world! Riku wants to step through the orb. But then he disappears, and suddenly Sora has a giant sword in his hand shaped like a key! Then he too gets absorbed into the black hole. Chapter 2: Traverse Town Goofy and Donald witness a star go out just as the darkness consumes Sora’s world. Sora wakes up on a new world called Traverse Town. So if this darkness is what’s destroying worlds, why did it transport Sora somewhere else? And Riku too, apparently. Riku wasn’t talking like the world was being destroyed, just like they were going somewhere. So is it a destroyer of worlds aor a transporter? And when Sora appears in Traverse Town, he says “I’m on another world,” like he immediately knows he’s been transported to another planet, not just somewhere not his home (see the opening paragraph as to why this is confusing.) In fact, when he asks Cid the store manager if he’s in another world, Cid says “Not sure what you’re talking about, but this aint your island!” Sora sees those same creatures appear and literally steal a person’s heart before he and Donald and Goofy all run into Leon and his friends, Yuffie and Aerith. So here’s the explanation, right? They tell us the creatures are called the Heartless, and that they are attracted by the darkness in everyone’s heart. They tell of a man named Ansem who was studying the Heartless and wrote down a report whose pages have been scattered all over the worlds. King Mickey is apparently looking for these pages. Meanwhile, the keyblade is a weapon against the Heartless that chooses its master, having chosen Sora. So...There’s some species that are randomly attacking worlds, and some guy from somewhere who was studying them, who Mickey somehow heard about and decided to chase down his notebook pages across the world, while instructing Goofy and Donald to go after the guy who has a special weapon, giving them 1/10th of the information he knew about it? And he knew about all of this how? And do Leon, Yuffie, and Aerith, know about all this? What more can they tell us? Who are they (I know they’re from Final Fantasy) and how do they know Mickey? Mickey actually told Donald & Goofy to find Leon, because he would point him “in the right direction” to find the Keyblade. But near as I can tell, they all, (Donald, Goofy, Leon & co.) find Sora completely by accident. Sora doesn’t ask these questions, of course.. But because he is the keyblade wielder, Donald & Goofy ask him to come with him looking for the king. So the basic story for now is that Sora is travelling from world to world with Donald and Goofy, them looking for the king, him looking for his friends. Just randomly looking in entire planets. Also, Merlin appears in Traverse Town, saying he’s been asked by the king to teach Sora magic. Meanwhile, we get a scene showing that a collection of Disney villains are somehow behind the darkness/Heartless, led by Maleficent. Chapter 3: Travelling worlds While in Wonderland, Sora sees Alice, but she mysteriously disappears. He then finds a special keyhole that he sort of instinctively points his keyblade at, firing a laser-like beam into it. In Tarzan’s jungle, Sora once again finds a keyhole and shoots a laser into it. We then cach a glimpse of the Disney villains saying that the boy remains “blissfully unaware of our other plan.” Wait, were we supposed to be aware of their first plan? I thought the Heartless were just randomly destroying (or not destroying?) worlds. So Sora goes back to Traverse town and only NOW do Leon and the others tell him that these keyholes are found in every world, leading to the heart of the world. The worlds are separated from each other, but opening the world's keyhole will allow other beings to enter.These are what the Heartless come through, and that Sora can lock them to prevent the Heartless from coming through and destroying the worlds. Riku then shows up, with no explanation of where he’s been or what he knows, and promptly vanishes again. The FF characters then tell Sora about Maleficent...sorta. They say she’s a witch who’s been “using the Heartless for years,” and that she’s the reason they lost their world. Doesn’t really explain anything, but okay. They do at least mention that Ansem was actually the ruler of their world. Maleficent, meanwhile, has Riku by her side, spying on the group, seeing that Sora’s *gasp* with other people, meaning he must have replaced Riku, and just like that he’s apparently on her side...Doing what, I don’t know. But Sora seals up Traverse Town’s keyhole. Jafar and Maleficent appear saying this world will be theirs as soon as they find the keyhole (because the Heartless will be able to take it over???), but they need all 7 princesses of heart to open the final door. Whatever that all means. Still not sure what these two are using the Heartless for. Sora seals the keyhole in Agrabah, but Jasmine, one of the seven princesses, is kidnapped by Riku. In return, Malfeicent shows Riku Kairi and tells him to go to her. The team gets swallowed by Monstro-in-space. Riku shows up and tries to kidnap Pinocchio, saying he can help Kairi, who has apparently lost her heart (???). Riku goes to Hook’s ship where Kairi is, comatose. Maleficent says the Heartless took her heart, but he can help her by helping them find the 7 Princesses of Heart, to open a door to the Heart of all worlds. Well, that finally explains what Maleficent’s plot is, a bit. But it doesn’t seemt to have anything to do with the Heartless attacacking and destroying worlds. However, Maleficent seems to have the power to control the Heartless, which she gives to Riku.1 point -

Games that feature trans actors playing trans characters?

I have to agree - there are thousands of voice actors who have voiced as the opposite sex in numerous games and other media so I don't know why it should be a big issue. My rule of thumb is that if someone's good enough to play the role, give it to them - end of.1 point -
Games that feature trans actors playing trans characters?
Crazycrab reacted to StaceyPowers for a topic
I don't think that's the issue so much as that certain demographics of actors may have been deliberately overlooked for parts in the past in favour of casting actors who may have been more acceptable to the normative culture. I think it's more about just not doing that anymore. Plus, I do think LGBTQAI+ actors sometimes may like taking parts that help them share their stories with the world and reach out to others in the community who may be looking for inspiration or visibility. I certainly don't complain about the talented Jennifer Hale being cast as Krem in DAI--so far as I know, a cis woman playing a trans man. But I was thrilled to see Ian Alexander cast as Lev in TLOU II.1 point -

I remember Devil Daggers, what a surreal experience that was. I think the longest I was able to last was about a minute or so. I don't know about games where you're doomed the moment you start playing and it's all about just about lasting as long as you can, I personally find it hard to motivate myself to play games like that. Not that I don't understand the appeal because I do. I would even go so far as to say everyone should try Devil Daggers at least once. It looks great and the atmosphere is just as daunting as the gameplay itself.1 point

Watching the Red Wings win the cup in 2008. I was elated seeing that. We haven't taken the cup since then, and we lost a LOT of our best players. Some due to retirement, others due to injury. We even traded a couple of our best, which still pisses me off. Also the first game I went to was a win for us. It was in the final minutes of the game and we were down by two. But we pulled it out and won. The second game I went to was on my birthday, and we won that one. So I've had some good moments with my team.1 point -

We do our best to keep conversations interesting, engaging, and clear for all who choose to take part in said conversation. But issues arise with some choosing to post nonsensical replies, that (quite often) have nothing to do with the topic at hand. Some members are worse at this than others. We also understand that English is not everyone's first language. We absolutely do take that into consideration when dealing with part of the community. Language barriers can often have a large impact on how someone responds. But others seem to simply not care. Those are the main problem members that we are forced to deal with. We try to be as fair as possible, but sometimes we simply can't do it anymore as it becomes completely pointless. Not because we give up, but because the member in question refuses to listen after multiple warnings. So take this to heart: make sure you have read the initial post for the thread and know what the OP is talking about. Read through the replies. And above all, make sure you know what you're talking about when you reply.1 point

It's still useless because digital games are tied to your online account, unless you would be okay to have a complete stranger have access to your online account they can't do jack shit with the digital games installed on a console. Hmm unless you use it as frisbee or simulair actions and use your disc the normal way like a normal human being, it's damn near impossible to scratch up a blu-ray disc. Also i never understood how people can be so careless with their belongings like how can a disc be scratched up so badly while all you have to do is keep it inside the case and it's will be fine for years to come.1 point

Worst retcons in video game history?
Reality vs Adventure reacted to Withywarlock for a topic
World of Warcraft's Legion was oft hailed as the best expansion since The Burning Crusade/Wrath of the Lich King, depending on which you played first (if neither, it was the best expansion period), especially for its story. However, it was apocalyptic to its lore: it was decided and made canon right there and then that your race and culture followed the same lore as everyone else. Trolls were hit the hardest: the Light that previously came from the Loa was just the same Light used by the Draenei, Humans, Dwarves and Gnomes. That Hex Priests (Warlocks) didn't manipulate and bargain with spirits, rather they drew upon the demons beyond the Twisting Nether... like every. Warlock. Ever. That Sunwalker Paladins of the Tauren had the exact same goals and ideals, as well as drawing power from their god, was the same as the others. Forsaken (sentient undead) Warriors were granted immortality by the Valkyre because of their class hub. Legion's story works if you disregard the core of how you interface with the game: your class. It's essentially changing the lore after the fact. One example I use is of Doctor Who: the First Doctor was the grandfather to one of his companions; it was later changed to him being a Time Lord, an alien from the planet Gallifrey, but had kept this a secret from her and went by the name of 'grandfather'. Or in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, we typically know her to be kickass, but in the episode 'Normal Again' she's actually hallucinating all of this, and the real Buffy is in a psychiatric ward for schizophrenia. Creator Joss Whedon left that episode's ambiguity up in the air on purpose, much to the ire of the fanbase. Interestingly, the Buffyverse RPG plays quite well to things that aren't necessarily canon, like the Wishverse (an alternate world where Buffy doesn't get to Sunnydale in time) or Hellworld (where the apocalypse is brought about in Season 5). Think of it as a correction to what is canon, or what is now "the correct" information in-universe.1 point -

But the past few weeks it's damn near impossible to keep up with board to read everithing and let alone reply to something that interest me, it's kind of discouraging whenever i see the latest posts of the general gaming section are made by one person.

I see the point if you wanted to "upgrade" to a better device, but the OP was talking changing a controller for purely aesthetic reasons. It's fine if you wanna do that but I just think it's odd. I guess I think of peripherals like gaming controllers as a purely functional things and don't really care that much for aesthetics. I suppose some do and that's fine, it's just not me.1 point -
My two cents for what it's worth, stop making these vague one sentence posts that make zero sense and start putting some tought into your posts by making your point clear so people know what you mean exactly if you don't like being quoted. I'll agree with what @Aniekwe said above, to me messageboards are intended for discussion, what are you even doing here if you don't want to have a discussion with other like minded people.

The tablets are now trying to emphasize you using it in landscape mode, along with a keyboard and mouse, but the vast majority of apps just work in portrait mode. A lot of the apps also don't scale correctly, so it's like the early iPad days where the apps were just blown up phone apps.1 point -
Double Dragon

I have the whole Double Dragon trilogy on NES. They still hold up today and are as fun as ever. I feel like they were a precursor to fighting games today. Hell they may have even been the inspiration for the style play of the TMNT games (TMNT2: The Arcade Game, TMNT3: The Manhattan Project, etc.) which offered a 2 player mode. But as a series, the Double Dragon games are always good for a play. Something I did always wonder as a kid was why the hell were they wearing boxing gloves. Ah, 1988 graphics. Clearer and more crisp than movies today could ever hope for.1 point -
You can't take away anything from how good Elden Ring trailer was made. Even in its perfection, I still feel that it didn't even cover everything the game have to offer. Elden Ring is very massive. And I still can't believe that no one added Red Dead Redemption 2 trailer. Are you guys being serious right now with missing that one out?1 point

This is an amazing trailer narrated by Martin Sheen (Illusive Man, Josiah Bartlet). Great music, great atmosphere, GREAT game. This one gives me goosebumps.1 point
