Dragonfall was so fucking good, I swear. And he was a huge part of why. The villain was acting completely rationally, and his plan, while morally ambiguous, made a good deal of sense. It ends in disaster if you choose to flip sides and support him, but that's not something he could reasonably have predicted.

God, Dragonfall has some amazing writing.

I killed her, dunno if that was the right choice but it seemed like it at the time

that was my casual filter .

learned to buff and play to beat this fucker since i did his quest way too early. Got wiped a LOT

Why was Dragonfall so much better than Hong Kong? I completed DF in 1~2 sittings, but dropped HK halfway through

Dragonfall simply has better pacing. HK definitely has its own moments, Racter is amazing.

I think it's the most reasonable thing to do. I think it's also the wrong one in hindsight. It's implied that killing her has unforeseen consequences.

...

>feuerschwinge
>fire swing

well thats some stupid name

I loved HK, but honestly it's tough to top Dragonfall's writing. HK was a better game and had almost equally amazing music, but Dragonfall had an incredible villain, a really well put together story that unfolded at just the right rate, and it had one of the best settings I've seen in a game. I *loved* anarchist Berlin. HK was cool, but it didn't feel as cozy somehow.

I mean, he did do wrong, but he was worthy of redemption

Best boss theme ever IMO. So bittersweet.

...

I loved that guy. His writing is amazing, and is probably THE best writing out of all the Shadowrun games (I mean, I do like Dragonfall cast except Monica). I love how he always comes out both endearing and unnerving at the same time.

I *really* liked Glory in Dragonfall. Probably more than him. She also stands out as a well written gay character in that it definitely affected her character in ways that you would expect it to, but didn't define her.

My 2 biggest problems with Hong Kong were the Matrix changes (that game's movement is NOT good enough for stealth mechanics and shit just felt more tedious than it needed to be) and the fact that they need to hire an editor for their writing, or at least get better about parceling it over time rather than dumping it on you all at once if you want to chitchat with the locals

Thing is, they both were right. Even in her madness Firewing had a point, and Vauclair was right about everything besides the single most important thing in the world, but he couldn't have learned about mana spikes from anywhere at all, as only the immortal elves and dragons know. Which makes it even more ironic.

Dragons are parasites of the Sixth World (and Earthdown as well), but they protect it from Horrors when mana spike hits, yet nobody should know about Horrors, otherwise everything will go to shit. But if they don't know they'll hate dragons like Vauclair, and will be right.

This thread reminded me that I still didn't finish Hong Kong yet. Should I?

best theme

>Earthdown
Earthdawn, fug.

I've always wondered how terrible it must feel to have such garbage taste

That's pretty glorious.

Yeah, it's pretty good. The extended edition's ending is a little bit, uhh, should I say, rushed? It is a definite cyberpunk ending though.

Yes, absolutely. Dragonfall was better, but HK was pretty great too, and did a lot of things better.

Hong Kong dropped the ball on pacing. Every mission is extremely short, with four encounters apiece. When you get back to the dock, you have 13 npcs with new dialogs to go through. It's grueling.

It has its moments, though, like the dialog puzzle in DeckCon where you literally have to have two conversations at once. Getting the good ending first try is nice, and Raymond is an awesome character who goes through some real shit. Also Duncan with the laser rifle and magnetic arm is OP and I love it

I trust you guys weren't foolish enough to deal with a dragon.

Bringing Gaichu to that was amazing. Everyone assumes he's a cosplayer.

...

>couldn't fuck the dragon
wasted potential

All his actions were completely justified.

Hong Kong has its moments.

The moment when I realized that Duncan "Tag And Bag A Demon Fag" Wu can neutralize some Elder God spawns with his shocking baton was when I decided that it's awesome.

...

Pretty sure there were only like 5 "wrong" NPCs in the game.

>Go on crazy-ass rampage one step away from outright war, because you get cucked
>Noting wrong

He wasn't "wrong" per se (Witcher higher vampires are basically autists from another world), but he was the most dangerous to humanity. If he stopped after his plan to kill his cuck girlfriend was foiled, he'd have some of my sympathies. Killing others because you only value a single thing in your life is pretty monstrous. I mean, the cucking girl is a monster as well, and so is the Countess, but he's definitely the greatest of those three evils.

Well that depends entirely on your perspective, and your player character of choice.
I would say that pic related did EVERYTHING wrong; while Haruspex players might forgive him.

if you talked to absinthe enough she mentions that the dragons are holding back some really bad shit
iirc you could bring it up in the final conversation with adrian if you got that line

when you actually get to that point in the game and realize what's going on, potentially everything changes, its an awesome scene and the music captures the conflict and desperation very well

Anna Angel was the worst person there, and I'm pretty sure (if I remember correctly) all 3 characters agreed about it.

What do the dragons in Shadowrun represent?

...

...

they're literally dragons

Literally nothing wrong

...

She was a good girl, she did nothing wrong.

Our favorite hooked nosed, greedy businessmen

>muh nature
Fuck off, dragon.

I let her go, can't really make up a reason not to. I'm a fucking tree fag.

I gave her to APEX cause I was curious how that would pan out.

...

Matrix Crash 2.0. AI boogaloo.

I am forever pissed they created such a perfect waifu bait but won't let us waifu her.

APEX is shady af. I let him go, but I feel like I made a mistake. That fucking Monika taunt at the end...

Killed her.

"If it's hostile, you kill it."

>giving apex a dragon
>letting apex live in the first place
this seems unwise

DRagon dying = major powershift = shit going down. Also dragon generally handle the horrors, so thats one less of that

not the dragons themselves but the mana they hoarded up during their lives
if someone was to slowly eliminate dragons one by one, the balance would be kept and the horrors that appear in Vauclair's ending couldn't / wouldn't break through

...

Is the Hong Kong expansion worth playing? I missed half the missiosn on my minigun elf cause I rushed to the one they proclaimed was important and ended up on the tanker. But wanted to do the rest. Is it worth taking it back up?

expac got a few fine missions and some hilariously overpowered equipment. Like ffs

it's pretty good, i liked the character interactions and the gameplay changes more than df even if the story wasn't as good

poor diego
props to him for being the only one strong enough to rid themselves of the mind control

why was it that his dad's past haunted him? wasn't the hacker universally praised as a hero after citadel?

Yeah. You're talking about the epilogue? I liked it. Just realize that it's an epilogue and not a full game.

>is a little bit, uhh, should I say, rushed?
Jesus, you're on an imageboard.

Maybe I should pick up my minigun wielding elf again and wreck havoc. To bad magi got hit with a nerf bat, played Mage in the other two.

I think the game is underrated, I count them as one game pretty much. The games wrapped in one, Returns, Dragonfall and Hong Kong you get about 50-60 hours and the price of a tripple A title.

>no romance

his father was edward diego, the one who sided with shodan.

>3 games
>no romance at all
Fuck this. Fuck it all.

Khergan did nothing wrong

Gobbet is best Orcfu

none of the crpgs have romance nowadays what happened

Reminder that:
-Huey didn't know the inspection was a ruse
-Huey tried to clear Big Bosses name after he fucked everything up by making the nuke
-Huey only made Sahelanthropus because Skullface forced him at gunpoint
-Huey doesn't know what happened to strangelove
-Strangelove committed suicide
-Skullface killed Strangelove
-Huey saw strangelove lock herself in the machine, but it couldn't be opened from the outside
-Huey only found out Strangelove was dead when he opened the machine and found her body
-Huey didn't know he had a son
-Strangelove disappeared with his son
-Huey never made his son pilot a Metal Gear
-Huey only made his son pilot a Metal Gear because he wanted to
-D Dog is a wolf
-Big Boss likes to kill his own men and rub their ashes on his face
-Big Boss is obsessed with revenge and hunted down Skull Face to kill him like a blood crazed animal
-Huey didn't know where Skull Face or Sahelanthropus were
-Huey helped Mother Base more than anybody else, by telling Big Boss were Skull Face and Sahelanthropus were
-D Horse is a donkey
-Big Boss should have been the one on that boat

People realized that that Bioware shit just made games worse and weakened characters.

Pillars 2 will to some degre

Berlin was gonna fall anyways, might as well have something to pull you out.

>HK was cool, but it didn't feel as cozy somehow
It wasn't supposed to be. HK is clearly going for a more seedy, dystopic feeling. DF was set in an area full of idealism full of people trying to make a difference, HK is set in a completely vile shithole. The former isn't any more valid than the latter, it's just that the positive tone is a bit more of a crowdpleaser. I expect we'll see a number of people upset that Cyberpunk 2077 isn't "comfy" either, it's likely to be brutally depressing.

Most vidya characters are weak nowadays. Adding romance would be an easy crutch.

I get that and I think you're right. I preferred Berlin's downbeat optimism though, and I feel like a lot of other people did too.

Crucially though, characterization in Shadowrun, which lacks romance, was pretty great.

>Eder became a mayor and is living a peaceful life
>suddenly his fucking god that he thought died and made peace with the fact is alive and killing shit
>now he needs to travel with the bunch of weak characters again to make everything right
I just want the best boy to have a good ending, bros. Is it so much to ask?

His heart was in the right-ish place, but his method of coping with the problem was pretty shit

but that dragon in particular was already believed and essentially dead

now freeing her adds another protector for nature and shit but killing her slightly rustles the jimmies of the other dragons which is the the only perjudicial thing you will ever be able to do to them without fucking some major shit up, since they're born-into-power spoiled lil shits with plot armor bigger than the universe

so in my book it's the ok thing to do

I don't know whats worse.
The fact that all of this was false or that i feel no sympathy for the character.

Thinking about retconning my Watcher into a girl just for him~

Lizard People that secretly run the world. There's a reason why "Never cut a deal with a Dragon" is literally rule 4 of being a Shadowrunner.

it's a cute dragon though

>there are faggots who truly believe the ending in which she manages to reproduce is a "good" ending

fuck's sake emotionfags are the cancer of humanity
literally, they're what's killing society right now as we speak

>dragon
>cute

Scalies will be the end of us all.
