FLIPENDO! For an unreal 1 engine game, it still looks and plays great

Flipendo or not, it was still part of a series of games based on the dullest franchise in the history of game franchises. Seriously each episode following the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains has been indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy imagery, the series’ only consistency has been its lack of excitement and ineffective use of special effects, all to make magic unmagical, to make action seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when Rowling vetoed the idea of Spielberg directing the series; she made sure the series would never be mistaken for a work of art that meant anything to anybody?just ridiculously profitable cross-promotion for her books. The Harry Potter series might be anti-Christian (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-James Bond series in its refusal of wonder, beauty and excitement. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>a-at least the books were good though
"No!"
The writing is dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs."

I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing. Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

That's because of art direction, the levels are really detailed and crafted with actual care. They have a lot of thought put in there

Modern games rarely have that, not to mention the amazing OST that just sucks you into the game

>>388652718
Of cours I meant the PC version. I also had one for PS1 which was also good. Now it gets stuck right before the duel with Fred.

Reminder that Chamber of Secrets GBC has a rhythm minigame, bowling, and a sidescrolling shooter in it

>>388652941
I played the GBC version of chamber of secrets once and because I was complete shit at games as a kid at the time, never bothered getting past the first area because it was supposed to be an RPG.

I really like the looks of old English stone castles and structures covered in plants and moss. Probably why my favorite part of dark souls 1 is the undead burg and it's connecting areas. I wish I could find the fame again. I want to play it to see if it was actually as good as I remember.

You should stop posting the dullest copypasta in the history of copypastas. Seriously each thread about the boy wizard and his pals from Hogwarts Academy as they fight assorted villains is now indistinguishable from the others. Aside from the gloomy rhetoric, the pasta’s only consistency has been its lack of humor and ineffective use of repetition, all to make trolling unfunny, to make shitposting seem inert.

Perhaps the die was cast when anons vetoed the idea of using a different image each time: they made sure the pasta would never be remixed or worked upon? just ridiculously profitable cross-thread pandering for (You)s. The Harry Potter copypasta might be anti-kino (or not), but it’s certainly the anti-Banepost in its refusal of innovation, applicability and funniness. No one wants to face that fact. Now, thankfully, they no longer have to.

>b-but it's board culture though

"No!"

The writing is dreadful; the pasta is terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time it is posted, the anon merely changes the first sentence. I began marking on the back of an envelope every time this was the only attempt made to contextualize it to the topic of the thread. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. /tv/'s mind is so governed by cliches and stale memes that it has no other style of shitposting. Later I read a lavish, loving review of the Harry Potter copypasta by a Redditor. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these anons are shitposting about Harry Potter on /tv/, then when they get older they will go on to make memes on Reddit. And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you use the "Harry Potter" copypasta you are, in fact, being trained to make Reddit memes.

Rowling is reasonable story teller, but a terrible author. Unfortunately, her poor writing skills were not mitigated by her editorial team; even in the last books there were an abundance of grammatical errors and poorly formed sentences.

What results are clumsy books, containing a small number of magical and well imagined events and settings, punctuated with large passages of dull, technically poor, prose.

I would levy most of the same complaints at George R R Martin, however he at least succeeds in building an interwoven narrative structure, containing sufficient detail to develop and justify plot events. Although, that said, his prose is so sloppy it's hard to believe, full of solecisms, misspellings, and malformed sentences.

You can explore freely in Philosopher's Stone for GC as well, though I believe it was kind of downgraded in that game. The castle barely has any NPCs and the music stops playing whenever you leave the main plot's path, which I don't remember from CoS

Anon, ASOFAI is poorly written. The authorship is bad, and the editors were away in the fields. There's a big difference between his story telling, and ability to develop a complex tale, and his abilities as a writer.

In particular, he has a bad habit of mixing up his subjects, and consequently writing paragraphs of unspecified nonsense. Again, something a good editorial team should catch.

That's why I think it's so cozy. Mostly because where my grandparents lived was very rainy and usually cool, even in the summer. So I always remember being in this huge room with the rain out the window with a bunch of other kids playing this game on the library computer. The inside of hogwarts was always lit with torches giving it a nice cozy orange tint, while the outside sort of mimicked the library we were at on a rainy day. A giant old stone building covered in moss.

One of the pitches was a Harry Potter game where you make your own character and go through a full schooling in Hogwarts and you meet characters from the books.

Rowling blocked it and said to focus on the book characters

>>388648435
I agree.

It's a very simple book that's borderline pointless from an intellectual perspective. It doesn't even have much entertainment factor.

I'm relatively positive that people just go into reading it with an extremely positive attitude for various factors without thinking too hard. Actual literary historians will have a positive attitude because they can relate the book in context to the great books tradition in America and enjoy the fact that, for it's time, it was a very experimental work.

Meanwhile dumbass peasants "like" it because it's easy to understand, is not challenging, and being able to understand something literary historians appreciate makes them feel smart, even though their understanding is incomplete as fuck.

>>388667734
i think thats a good argument for why open-world games can be good; instead of "circumnavigate the field of play to find secrets" you can hide shit in places that you might not look because there are so many other options in where you can go. unfortunately most games dont utilize this(the only example i can really think of is that one skyrim overhaul set in a unique universe, though i dropped tht pretty quick becuase of shitty skyrim combat) and some make a retardedly huge laundry list of collectables

the third one was already pretty bad. maybe that was unique to the pc version.

>>388686260
PC Chamber of Secrets. There is more of the territory to cover than in Sorcerer's Stone, better variety of movement spells, more cards in total (in Stone, each one of them felt like a huge secret while in Chamber it's worth to check every nook and cranny) and more to do with beans as there are merchant NPCs everywhere
