Could you explain what makes it good?

I've only played Origins and a very little amount of 2 and to me the lore seemed like generic fantasy with pretty much all imaginable tropes included, Like Racist templar mage hunters, unstoppable undead horde, sleeping dragons, etc.

im speaking literally based off visuals
pic off google depicting it because i dont want to play all through level 5 just to grab a screenshot

you have multiple forms
form 0 - a ball
form 1 - polygonal layered human shape
form 2 - you have some wireframe human shape now
form 3 - youre a mesh human shape now
form 4 - red/black human meditating
form 5 - a sphere with wireframe shapes around you
form 6 - a child/baby in a wireframe bubble

its hard to share unless you play the game to see it all

I suggest to read the Codex in the first two games. Things get very interesting in DA:I. That's where the most interesting stuff is presented and they put a lot of effort in all the connections and consequences of the series.

>Andraste was a mage who most likely got possessed by Mythal/Flemeth herself
>Lyrium is Titan's blood
>The Blight was discovered by ancient elves who mined Titans for lyrium
>Fen'Harel has always been the good guy of the pantheon and the Dalish remember everything wrong (if you replay the Dalish origins story in DAO after DA:I you will feel a lot bad for Solas)
>the Black City is Tainted Arlathan
>lots of stories and details about the Divines, the Chantry, the Emerald Knights of Halamshiral, the true story of Red Crossing


Say what you want about DA:I, but for a lore fag like me that game was a goldmine of lore.

How deep would you consider Spyro's lore, if restricted to the original trilogy only
>>
>>319753370
it may seem bland at first, but it's actually interesting. not everything is what it seems at first, like the dragons sleeping underground. they are needed to prevent the darkspawn from mindlessly scavenging upstairs: with their "song" they keep the hordes busy. that's why Solas is against killing them when the matter is brought up in Inquisition.

Also the dwarves are not the usual race of gruffy people living underground because they like gems. They were sealed down there by Mythal and all references to their life prior this has been erased, causing the new generations to believe the surface is bad and causing castes and mafia to grow strong in their society. they could even use magic before, now all their connections to the Fade are severed.

People rarely talk about Rez on /v/. Even those artfags who like to talk about aimlessly if video games are art or not while Rez is one of the few examples with one can call "eclectic influences" Read the article on hg101, if you haven't already.

>>319759560
>People rarely talk about Rez on /v/
it saddens me deeply. though if we mentioned the Dreamcast mouse support, the PS2 vibrator, and how XBLA had better visuals and sound we could probably get somewhere.
im disappointed how no PC port exists either.
>Read the article on hg101, if you haven't already.
i havent. i almost never read articles due to it potentially being biased/in someone's favor.

on a side note, do me a solid and watch a video i uploaded in ass composite upscaled 1080p60fps of a leaked prototype build of rez. I added some content to the Unseen64 article as well.

Well, it is coming to PS4 now with VR support but not one soul posted about it on /v/. We'll probably get the ultimate version of the game. The article on hg101 is not opinionated. They just talk about the game and how it got influenced by Kandinsky's work very shortly, pic related is the part of the article I'm referring to.

I heard of the prototype myself but I never had the chance to play it. I'll check your vid out. DC was something else. Emulating Rez on nullDC gets you results near 360 HD port.

one anon briefly posted about it. im sad not many are paying attention to it.
>Emulating Rez on nullDC gets you results near 360 HD port.
while yes, it will, the problem comes in with the debugging menus. half of them are inaccessible due to the dreamcast keyboard (JP version) having the S2 key. that S2 key isnt recognized by windows linux or osx, nor is it detectable via an emulator.

im actually attempting to repackage the xbla version with the prototype files to see if i can make it boot the prototype.
assuming this works, i can use my XDK 360 and use my dreamcast adapter to use the keyboard.
