I am expecting a lot of Disco Elysium, here…and nothing wrong with that!

A video gaming student organization I was once part of actually had a vote on their favorite sayings. The winner was the evergreen “Perhaps the same said could be said of all religions…” from Castlevania: Symphony of the Night! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMTizJemHO8

Later we had a second voting, which decided on the cult classic Trio the Punch’s “BAD CHOICE”! https://youtu.be/rIPtzZHJnkg?t=454

My personal favorite? It’s hard to say…but hey, that’s what the scientist in Half-Life can comment, word to word! So maybe I’ll put forward, said by the aforementioned: “My god, what are doing!?”

Tl;dr: Check title.

Excellent, but someone told me that is not a real quote from the game? If it is, I’ll play it again!

“Blame yourself, or god.” is also top-tier.

Spec Ops: The Line has some good quotes, especially in the loading screens.

  • Do you feel like a hero yet?
  • The US military does not condone the killing of unarmed combatants. But this isn’t real, so why should you care?
  • How many Americans have you killed today?

I firmly believe that most people who hate Spec Ops: The Line don’t understand what it’s trying to accomplish

That’s true, but I think quite a few get what it’s trying to do and hate it for the same reason I hate Pathologic, or most Brecht play productions. They’re just not fun.

The game is clever and well written but I’m not convinced the gameplay is generic on purpose. I’ve heard that before but never bought it.

Now yeah the devs put in things to make you uncomfortable, like the white phosphorus thing or how you can accidentally shoot civilians. And the game mocks you. But the gameplay is otherwise kind of typical for the time. It does get needlessly difficult at certain parts, and that’s probably an aspect of the narrative, but the gameplay itself was probably intended to be functional and engaging.

"My country lay within a vast desert. When the sun rose into the sky, a burning wind punished my lands, searing the world. And when the moon climbed into the dark of night, a frigid gale pierced our homes. No matter when it came, the wind carried the same thing… Death. But the winds that blew across the green fields of Hyrule brought something other than suffering and ruin. I coveted that wind, I suppose"

Wind Waker remains my favorite LoZ for many reasons and chief among them is giving Ganondorf even the barest amount of characterization and motivation beyond “evil man bad conquer hyrule, stop him destiny child”
