xeno | I wish Adventure games (the old style) hadn't crashed so badly. I like the Telltale Games, but they've turned into movies rather than click & point games |
xeno | although I just got Broken Sword on my ipad, that seems promising |
xeno | but still not anywhere near Lucasarts |
xeno | imagine the old Lucasarts team joining up and making Maniac Mansion III |
themachinist | hmm that would be cool. haven’t played MM |
xeno | themachinist: MM2 is better known as Day of the Tentacle |
xeno | themachinist: and it's the best adventure games of all time, easily spins circles around both Monkey Island and Sam & Max |
themachinist | heresy! |
xeno | play it, then say heresy again! it's insanely good |
themachinist | now i have something to do this weekend |
xeno | definitely... and unless you cheat, probably longer :) |
rindolf | xeno: I preferred the Monkey Islands over Day of the Tentacle. |
rindolf | xeno: and I finished the Day of the Tentacle. |
rindolf | xeno: it's a good idea not to state an opinion as a fact. :-) |
xeno | I would play DotT first, Sam & Max second, Monkey Island II third, not sure about 4th |
xeno | rindolf: but it's a fact that DotT is the best! :) |
themachinist | Twey: i think its busybox, not sure how to tell |
themachinist | jkbbwr: ? |
rindolf | xeno: "In my opinion, it's a fact!" |
xeno | rindolf: exactly! |
rindolf | xeno: stop! You don't exist! You cannot have opinions. |
rindolf | xeno: I am not -> I think not. |
xeno | rindolf: you don't need to exist or to think for DotT to be the best adventure game :) |
rindolf | xeno: you cannot have opinions and you certainly cannot state facts. |
rindolf | xeno: heh. |
rindolf | xeno: DotT does not exist! Thus, it can not be played. |
rindolf | xeno: the Matrix HAZ YOU! |
xeno | rindolf: of course the matrix has me |
xeno | or I have the matrix |
xeno | or maybe I am the matrix |
rindolf | xeno: in which cell? ;-) |
xeno | #9, the one with the soft fluffy walls |
rindolf | xeno: a matrix is two-dimensional. |
xeno | only inside the matrix |
rindolf | xeno: maybe an Evil Genius convinced us that matrices are a valid mathematical concept. |
Twey | Matrices are just a special case of tensors. |
xeno | rindolf: that's likely, but you don't even need that... the Evil Genius argument is just Descartes being incapable of imagining himself as not created by something conscious |
rindolf | Twey: "Flobakonins are just a special case of loremipsums." |
Twey | rindolf: Gesundheit! |
rindolf | Twey: heh. |
rindolf | xeno: i agree that reality can be very different from what we perceive it. |
rindolf | xeno: assuming powerful enough misconceptionists. |
