Fallout 3 has zero consequences for being evil. Your dad just says "bruh" and that's it. At least in Interplay's Fallout and Obsidian's New Vegas you can be evil and people in the game actually respond to it. Bethesda has always been afraid of actual evil options.

[@regiszem]

You talked about Far Cry 3, but from my point of view Far Cry 4 is also a good example. When you think that doesn’t matter who between the rebellion leaders you choose, there will be a lot of bloodshed, you find out that your father was a merciless rebel too, and you end up not laying down your mother’s ashes, which was the whole point of you going there in the first place. To think that siding with Pagan was the best decision… it really is something

[@MrProy33]

I was thinking 5 is probably the worst... you literally fail to stop a nuclear bomb from detonating. Lol. Even worse, it spawned New Dawn.

[@quinnmarchese6313]

to me, Far Cry 3 is a reflection of masculinity and in some ways, boredom, what with Jason being shown through his hallucinations as being disconnected from his peers even before the game (he skips his little brothers flight graduation or something, Grant mentions that he is a natural with a firearm, etc) and how he went further down the rabbit hole (the wonderland references are so in your face lol). Far Cry 4 is a reflection on i think is most easily described as Western involvement in conflicts we have no business being in. Willis shows up and talks about how the CIA funded both Mohan's Golden Path and Pagan's government, how they played Mohan and your mom like an asset in the conflict, and how ultimately if they keep their involvement secret but firm they can benefit from virtually any outcome of the civil war. You aren't necessarily the villain in 4, just yet another pawn in Willis'/the CIA's game--it makes total sense that the "best" ending is just to wait for Pagan at the beginning, because not only do you accomplish your own objective, you also uphold possibly the best outcome for the average citizen in Kyrat, AND you don't let yourself get used by shady people to make things worse.

[@40k0ff7]

I really love the fact you guys still cover older games and talk about games that deserve more spotlight and love such as Spec Ops. Really hope they remaster/remake that game for newer consoles

[@3rdWorldGamer]

They include spec off the line so much into their videos they could have a top 10 videos where they talk about spec ops the line... Plus bonuses entries...

[@WhatIsMatter101]

Because Triple A$$ games suck. Making you pay to complete the funding of the game is terrible.

[@KasumiRINA]

@@3rdWorldGamer it's a good game tho. The entire series is underrated. Also when most people talk about the Line they talk about how game positions itself "hOw MaNy AmErIcAnS yOu KiLlEd" (as if killing Arabs is somehow more acceptable) but not how it actually plays, which is pretty cool - there's a lot of environmental stuff and physics over the top fatalities and vaulting dropkicks. It's a great third person shooter ESPECIALLY if you enjoy violent games ala Doom or Postal.

[@3rdWorldGamer]

@@KasumiRINA yup... I know a lot about the game. Thing is they include it so much into their videos one can't avoid the eye roll. I got it, it's an obscure game but can they maybe start including some new obscure ones instead of the same one on a weekly basis?

[@justinlast2lastharder749]

​@@KasumiRINAMorally, it is more acceptable. Killing your own also makes you a Traitor in addition to a Murderer. Jeffrey Dahmer killed and ate people. He himself was murdered in prison. Both acts at face value are murder and unacceptable...but you can kinda see where the guy who killed Dahmer was coming from...

I still play through the OG Dungeon Keeper campaign annually. It's such a great game and with DK FX it still holds up extremely well. Agreed though, wish EA didn't taint and bury it. Bullfrog were the kings back in the day.

Overlord 2 was such a fun game wish we got a sequel

[@IBSBrad]

There was a third

[@IBSBrad]

5/10 · Steam 24% · Metacritic Overlord: Fellowship of Evil is a fantasy action role-playing game developed and published by Codemasters. It is a spin-off of the Overlord series and was released on October 20, 2015 for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

[@IBSBrad]

I guess not techinically a mian line gamr

[@cygnata]

There was an awesome prequel, but it was made for the Wii U. A mediocre spin-off for the DS, and a PC spin-off that really isn't worth the money. Raising Hell (the first game's DLC) was the best of the bunch. There IS DLC for Overlord 2, but it's console only.

[@dansmith16]

Overlord 2 got really tedious with the legions. Ok, time to stop having fun and find that Centurion.

[@eternal1635]

I didn't know i was the bad guy in Spec Ops until the end, I played it again to make sure I understood I was the bad guy and every time afterwards I played on Fubar because it's just a damn good game with an awesome story and gameplay. Still fun to visit that Spec Ops the line even today

[@jroameverywhere]

Gameranx is goated for having these types of lists where niche cult classics or older forgotten gems can be shown and get some shine. I put so many hours into Plague Inc. on older phones.

[@damianxxx3118]

If you're wanting an updated version of Dungeon Keeper, check out War For The Overworld. I believe it was created by some of the same people who developed Dungeon Keeper
