Jake the Sage Posted July 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 Well I don't think that it is as simple as that encapturer. I think that most games don't have the time nor resources to input a massive "moral" scale into it much less wrap it around an interesting plot with well controlled characters, dialogue and everything else that goes into a game.

The Warden Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 The moral choice in Epic Mickey is definitive to the bosses. If you beat them with paint, you get another bar of paint; beat them with thinner, get another bar of thinner. Basically, once you beat Clocktower with either, you're pretty much set to whatever you beat him with. I find Paint to be better in most circumstances, as getting Spatters on your side is handy, the Slobbers especially. Course, being paint means you have greater difficulty fighting those obnoxious Beetleworx, as you have to thin their paint shells in order to melee them. Then again, Beetleworx are somewhat uncommon, so it's not too big a disadvantage, even if those cheating ladybug ones do take 2 HP per hit whilst you don't have a recovery time. Then during the end cinematic, you get to see the result of your choices you made during the game. So you can see how Paint has caused harmony whilst thinner has wrecked the world blah blah.

Thar Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 [quote name='encapturer' timestamp='1343616495' post='5992434'] Why do games always have such polarizing moral decisions, anyway? [/quote] "Always" is a very strong word for that subject. Nowadays you see games coming out that only focus on making one of several decisions and have them affect the way it ends. Whereas these games are made for all audiences, including kids who only have one thing in mind while playing: to reach the end and expect it to be a happy ending. So with that thought, game designers don't have much of a choice but to make the plot linear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted July 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 You know despite what some might say I liked how in Shadow the Hedgehog game you could be either Good, Evil or Neutral. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 [quote name='Jake the Sage' timestamp='1343690544' post='5993098'] You know despite what some might say I liked how in Shadow the Hedgehog game you could be either Good, Evil or Neutral. [/quote] Playing Neutral sounds very cool cause most games only give you the option of Good or Evil. I ran into a lot of hard decisions in inFamous 2 while playing, but I usually make them based on what I'd do irl if I could get away with it. For example: You see a guy in the street performing for money...blow him off his feet and pass by in peace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Moral choice does get a bit tedious honestly, frankly, I wish there was an apathetic choice sometimes. Nothing like a 'meh' after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathanael D. Striker Posted July 31, 2012 Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Jake, why do you want to hack? It's illegal you know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake the Sage Posted July 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 31, 2012 Hacking something that isn't mine, say a website, would indeed be illegal Striker you're right. That type of hacking will result in you being prosecuted and jail/fines if and when you are caught. Hacking a game in which I bought however, is not. The reason is I have paid the proper amount of money to have the game as my own personal possession, and thus as my own possession I am free to do with it as I please . . . Not to mention I've seen hacks that allow you to play as anything from Hollow Ichigo to Deadpool so I am really interested in doing it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I'd tell you how to get a program to do that, but the government crashed MegaUpload. It's called RiiVolution. It's an app you can download to your SD card and put it to your Wii. You need different files for different games, but as far as I know, there is one for Brawl and Mario Kart. I did it for Mario Kart. It's fun. Not the best quality, but custom tracks are always interesting. [quote name='Striker' timestamp='1343777949' post='5993879'] Jake, why do you want to hack? It's illegal you know. [/quote] It's only illegal if you get caught. ^^ Just don't hack while playing online and it isn't a problem. Might f*ck up the console, but step-by-step instructions prevent that from happening.

Jake the Sage Posted August 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Thar have you seen what characters they can include in Brawl with the hacks? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iaMGVSDwieA I mean . . . f*cking amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Like I said, I can't find any other place than MegaUpload to find that file, which sucks. But if I would've known there was one for Brawl, I would've included it with MKWii and played around with it. Dude, you're right. Those characters...

Jake the Sage Posted August 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 Well I found a website called Brawl Vault that has everything you can download and hack into Brawl a certain way. Here is the link in fact -> http://forums.kc-mm.com/Gallery/BrawlView.php I just haven't managed to figure it out right yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thar Posted August 1, 2012 Report Share Posted August 1, 2012 I might just have to check that out when I get home next week. But it might require me to confiscate the Wii from the family room, which means it could be any time when someone wants to use it and asks for it.

I, for one, find in-game cheats rather boring, which is why I got an Action Replay for my DS...even though I don't have a DS anymore. But for the Gamecube I had a ton of fun with the cheat disc, especially in Mario Sunshine. Moon jump, FTW.[quote name='Jake the Sage' timestamp='1343789040' post='5994053'] Do what you will Striker.
