The thread title should be "Why do people like Final Fantasy?". There's tons of JRPGs that push boundries, you just have to find them. Shin Megami Tensei, Vagrant Story, Xenogears, Blue Dragon (Loved that game), The Tales series are just a few examples. :P

[QUOTE="AAllxxjjnn"][QUOTE="Hathesulacon"]Im not taking anything out of context. I dont even like Modern Warfare (2) but Crysis' story was nothing. Who is that guy to say ANYTHING.

Hathesulacon

He didn't write the original Crysis. This is the writer of Crysis 2.He's written 5 novels, won a Philip K. Dick award.

Writing games for a story is different then doing it for a book bro. Much different.

Eh? You're not making any sense. He isn't just writing the story, he's partially directing the game, to fit with his story. Honestly, do research before you spew your nonsense.

[QUOTE="AAllxxjjnn"]The writer answered questions in an interview about gaming narrative and used examples to to help illustrate the point. He's not saying Crysis 2 is going to have the best story ever conceived. He's just giving his honest input on what games are doing wrong in the narrative department and how to fix it. I think people are: 1. Taking his comments out of context and 2. just pissed that he dare say something bad about Halo or Modern Warfare. His comments aren't even unfounded, they're well thought out criticisms. Stop crying and learn to deal with criticisms. And in regards to his Killzone 2 comment, he was asked how Crysis 2 stacks up against Uncharted 2 and Killzone 2, so he responded that Crysis 2's current build looks better than it. Hathesulacon

He never wrote the original Crysis story, jeez, can you be anymore ignorant? :x He's a critically acclaimed scifi novelist, so he has EVERY RIGHT to express his opinion on current games, story wise. No one can deny that most stories in video games this gen are typically SUB PAR at best. The industry needs a good kick up its ass, because from what I see, they're not delivering as a medium.

[QUOTE="DaViD_99"]This Crysis writer is starting to sound like a douche... AAllxxjjnn
uhh, no, it's the sensationalist media that's making him sound like a douche. He was asked how Crysis 2 stood up against games like UC2 and Killzone 2. So he answered.

Yeah, but people don't seem to realise this. :roll: Crysis 2 coming to consoles is probably some of the biggest news ever, due to Crysis 1 being the technical powerhouse it was. Ofcourse the media are going to ask him how the engine fairs compared to other technically impressive engines. Doesn't help when people post the same info in a different thread every 10 minutes. And he's a novelist, and has already claimed that video games can be as impressive as movies when it comes to narratives, but most companies, while having plausible stories, don't seem to be able to portray it as well as movies. It's just his opinion, cut him some slack.

[QUOTE="Wozmcfc"]

I love how he uses 'our' as if he had some part in the genius of creating the game, he's just a lame sci fi writer.

Bus-A-Bus

Actually he is not,and the title is misleading.He actually just answered question.

HipHopGamer - " With the recent talks about how Crysis 2 will have the best console graphics ever, and will hit graphical cieling, Have you seen anything that made you go woow. And how does it match up to the leading graphical titles such as Killzone 2 , Uncharted 2 or God Of War 3 ? "

Richard Morgan - " As the lead writer of Crysis 2, they have numerous times showed me Crysis 2. This way i can visualise the scenes and scripts for the story events. I can tell you now What I have seen of Crysis 2 in Alpha Stages, Surpasses Killzone 2 " .

Exactly. Fanboys are twisted his words, to make him seem like an ass. Watch an interview with him and he's actually pretty cool. He doesn't "bash" other games, he just gives his opinions on how they can be improved, story wise. And to be honest, the story in most video games, bar a few, is sub par at best. :P

Wozmcfc

Uhh no. He's contributing to the actual design of the game. Him and Cevet talk, and when he's portraying the story, he sorts of "directs" the action on screen, to fit in with his writing. He's also a critically acclaimed Sci Fi novelist, who's made deals with Hollywood to adapt his novels to movies. :roll: The last 3 / 4 posts I've seen you post have been 1 liner bashes. From now on, everything you say is void to me.

I really love Cryteks games, and I really dig this dude (Richard Morgan), but he does seem abit crazy. :lol: I'm just hoping they deliver, otherwise they're in for quite possibly the biggest ownage ever seen in video game history. I HAVE FAITH! :D

I liked it. Dom looked completely different though. :( It looks like it's going back to Gears 1s horror style, compared to Gears 2s (awesome, but I prefer creepy horror) full out action. Definitely looking forward to it. Gears co op with my little bro is some of the most fun I've had on a console. :P
