    Ugg, Overlord was the last game to make me seethe with rage and frustration. It was sort of my fault for forcing myself to finish a game that i stopped enjoying 5 hours into it...

    But it was equally its fault for the clunky minions and combat and THE FUCKING LACK OF ANY MAP WHATSOEVER. That was the worst offense to me. Not even a compass for when townspeople say "Oh, head East" because there is no East.

    You realize that a fold out map came with the game, yeah? It helped me quite a bit.

    No, the first one wasn't evil enough. I don't want to stop another evil empire, I want them to offer me a province and I'll go "fuck yeah" and then stab them in the back sometime later.

    And what's the deal with being thrown across the fucking room by a servant when I try to beat her? That's just not right. (To avoid outcry, I could of course have some male servants as well. That way, I'm beating everyone)

    It's like in Black and White where people sort of had to improvise to actually be evil during quests even though it didn't really register in game, they could only boast about it online.

    No, no... at least give me an Army of Light to slaughter whose graves I may later dance on.
    Yeah you should have to kill actual bands of rag tag heroes who banded together despite their differences to put a stop to your evil.

    To put it another way, we really need a new Dungeon Keeper.

    Indeed. A new dungeon keeper would be ace.

    Did I say ace?

    I meant to say something better. Something meatier, sweatier, with some real oomph behind it. A word for men. A word that encompasses all that is glorious and depraved in our world. A word greater than pie, and no less chewy than cake. But there is no such word, and I can only dream. ;-;

    We need less of the "you are technically evil but really do good" crap.

    Whoa, no idea there was a Pratchett involved in these games. Just got a 360 like 2 weeks ago and I might have to pick the first one up. Does it have the same feel of both love and mockery for the fantasy genre that Terry's works have?

    Yes, and another thing: why is that old imp telling me what to fucking do? I tell him what to do. All I can do is boot him in the face whenever he snaps orders at me. In fact, lots of people are snapping orders at me. Bitch, I Lord Over you. At a minimum there should be a torture chamber for that level of subordination.

    And finally, they give you a throne, but you're never allowed to sit on it. What the hell? You give me an awesome throne room, and I can't sit there and have men and women prostrating themselves before me in terror.

    Yeah on one hand this is all about being evil and on the other hand you don't get to do anything truely overlordish at all.
