Line #58 Tropers/KainLupus


1	''' ''This page is no longer being updated and only remains in the interests of posterity'' '''
2
3	I don't trope as much as spectate on the troping. And I contribute a little. I guess you could call me a troper, but I wouldn't consider myself one.
4	* The UsefulNotes page in Trivia/Left4Dead was my idea!
5	* I have a deviantArt page, but I mostly just do Alignment Charts
6	* I entered the first Headscratcher for {{Brink}}
7
8	I buy most of my films based on their pages on TVTropes\
9	Socialism is my enemy
10
11	Just got Brink, starting to love it
12	* As far as I'm concerned, Security are the good guys
13	** Guests bitch about how they're treated unfairly, but we saved their lives. They should be grateful for every little thing.
14	* I don't feel like Command Posts are worth the effort that's needed to keep them.
15	** That said, sometimes I like to capture one that's unguarded just to distract the opposition and keep them unfocused.
16	* I much prefer attacking to defending, probably 'cause it's harder
17	** I also prefer losing to curbstomping. My favourite outcome is a very tight win
18
19	I play Left4Dead (not Left4Dead2) on the Xbox 360, hit me up sometime and we'll play
20	* When you're playing with randomly matched partners, other Survivors can be obstacles as much as assistance. Forgive me if I'm a little 'out for myself' when we first meet.
21	* It's not a coincidence that there are four kits in a safe-room and four survivors in a team. If you take two kits and I don't get one as a result, I have no problem with taking one from your corpse.
22	** And don't be like ''"Oh, I'm sorry. I'll heal you [now / when you ask me]"''. It's not even close to the same thing
23	** There really ought to be a "give kit" key like with Pills (maybe double-tap LT) but there isn't.
24	* I don't care if I'll respawn with more health, I don't want you to kill me (it's happened before)
25	** And now I really want to find that guy and kill him (in-game). I should've written his name down...
26
27	I'm totally looking forward to DeadIsland and [[BatmanArkhamCity Arkham City]]

29	''' ''I love these games. [[YourMileageMayVary You might not.]]'' '''
30	* [[AssassinsCreed Assassin's Creed]] - Sure, the series is flawed, but the first one was an innovation in many ways (I feel that BatmanArkhamAsylum owes it a little for the combat system) and the second one totally blew my mind at the climax of Ezio's story. Brotherhood can go jump off of a tower without a haystack for all I care
31	* BatmanArkhamAsylum - The Boss Battles were lacking, but short of that it was marvelous
32	* {{Bioshock}} - Sure, it dragged on a little near the end, but short of that it was beautiful. The sequel had some shitty GFWL lock that wouldn't open for me after I paid for it, so it gets a 0 out of 10 in my books
33	* {{Brink}} - I don't understand why it got trashed so much by reviewers. It gets old quickly, however
34	* FalloutNewVegas - Totally superior to the so-called Fallout 3. I've tried to play Fallout 2 but I can't adapt to the old game-system so this combination of Bethesda's system and Obsidian/Black-Isles beautiful wasteland sandbox is perfect for me
35	** My problem with Fallout 3 is the linearity of it, by the way. I find the Brotherhood to be arrogant jerks and Dad to be way more focused on Socialism than Fatherhood, so I totally resent being lumped with the Brotherhood on my quest to save my father and his life's work (which I don't give a fuck about, by the way. I would've just walked out of Project Purity the second I heard from Doctor Li). Plus the game had like eight quests in it, which is just poor.
36	* Left4Dead (not Left4Dead2) - I've nothing against the sequel, I just prefer the simpler original. I feel the extra Special Infected are unnecessary, especially since you need to be able to carry yourself at least a little online, in case your team-mates are useless or detrimental to the cause
37	* MassEffect - The whole series. It's just a beautiful SpaceOpera and Bioware's best work in my books (given Baldur's Gate and Jade Empire are before my time). I played KOTOR but I felt it was far too BlackAndWhiteMorality. Dragon Age looks great but I'm no good at it, I can never get past Redcliffe
38	* {{Portal}} - Short but Sweet
39
40	''' ''The following are great films. If you don't like them, you're missing something'' '''
41	* {{Alien}}
42	* {{Aliens}}
43	* BackToTheFuture
44	* The Blood and Ice-Cream Trilogy - Deco-Recos of various genres
45	** ShaunOfTheDead
46	** HotFuzz
47	* {{Coraline}}
48	* TheDarkKnightSaga
49	* DirtyHarry - just the first one. Serious {{Sequelitis}} here.
50	* TheEmperorsNewGroove - probably just NostalgiaFilter here
51	* FightClub
52	* TheFrighteners
53	* InBruges - The example of TrailersAlwaysLie in my books. It was marketed as a fucking ''comedy''
54	* TheIncredibles
55	* KickAss - The first ChloeMoretz film I saw. Everything she touches turns to gold, I swear
56	* KungFuPanda
57	* LawnDogs
58	* {{Leon}} - NataliePortman was sexier as a child (yeah, I said it). Not really feeling that collar, though
59	** Which isn't to say I only like it for the sexy bits. It's a great story with some hard-core FanService thrown in
60	* LetMeIn (there isn't a page solely for the remake, which is a shame}
61	* LolaRennt
62	* LordOfWar
63	* PulpFiction
64	* ReservoirDogs
65	* {{Serenity}} - The {{Firefly}} Movie
66	* TheSilenceOfTheLambs
67	* SinCity
68	* TheThing
69	* {{Up}}
70	* TheUsualSuspects
71	* [[WallE Wall-E]]
72	* {{Zombieland}}
73	* FiveHundredDaysOfSummer - Not my usually fare, but I really liked it
74	* [[EightMile 8 Mile]]
