I didn't play Fable 3 because Fable 2 was a huuuuuuuge disappointment. Loved Fable. Never even finished Fable 2.

Which, to be fair, Fangerl struggles to find flaws in anything above second grade. PLot holes to him are probably just more "I don't get it."

Yes, but how many of them herald it as a great story? How many even play the story? Nobody's, to my knowledge, calling it anything of the sort. Well, except Fangerl within a week of release, followed by disc snapping and bad mouthing.

...And then purchase again in some instances.

Yes, millions of people play COD. How many of them heap such praise on it as your comparison would indicate.

Hell, COD is a primarily multiplayer franchise. Its focus is largely multiplayer. and both devs get death threats over broken elements of its focus. Since we're comparing the two, MGS is a primarily story-driven franchise. It's even used to justify the oft-shitty controls. MGS usually gets a pass on story from its fans. You know, its focus.

It's perception, alright. Warped perception. "The story doesn't have flaws if you ignore the flaws." That sort of thing.
If you go looking for flaws of course you will find them. That much is a given, KK. Though I haven't played a game since that I enjoyed as much from start to finish. It has a very likable protagonist, a good stealth system (if at times the guards are a bit stupid, but its a game and if you wanted perfect realism, then you are looking in the wrong place) a very good story with great twists that provides an excellent backstory to the franchise ending with one of the best boss fights (no pun intended) there was nothing frustrating about the game, nothing that broke it or made it unplayable. It struck a fine balance in difficulty where it wasn't easy but wasn't Nintendo Hard either.

Now with having the third installment take place before the first game, of course there is always going to be the issue that something won't fit together correctly.

Moving onto CoD, I have no idea what has happened in any if the games after CoD4. I haven't started, let along finished the story in any of them. I play for the multiplayer and that's about it.

Which finally brings me to something I asked you once before and you failed to respond because you tend to do that when confronted with a question you cannot answer without having to defend it yourself in such a way you attempt to force others to do.

But ill ask again so everyone here can watch you attack me or draw attention away from and completely avoid the question as you usually do, I mean that is your schtick right?

So KK, what is the best game you have ever played and why do you think it is so good? I mean you ARE an expert on every game, so this shouldn't be a difficult question to answer for you.

Absolutely loved TLC, Started Fable 2 and it didn't have the same feel at all. Haven't finished it either.

Yes, that's exactly what my brother, a huge Kojima fan, does.

Shut up, Fangerl.

Point out which part I made up. Go on. You can't.

This is why it fails when Jabba and Afterlife say it, too.
