TikTok has plenty of entertaining content creators, ranging from funny videos and great singing performances to excellent tips. Still, it's like any social media platform, where people overshare or just put content out that nobody wants to see. If certain infamous video game characters were to download the app, we might regret the fact that Tik Tok even exists. We're not saying that these choices are necessarily annoying, but we could do without them popping up on our phones when we are looking up cute kittens snuggling one another. 10 Dr. Breen (Half-Life 2) After humanity has been thoroughly defeated by the Combine in Half-Life 2 , Breen puts himself on large video monitors all around City 17 to talk to the populace. We cannot imagine how insufferable this villain would get on TikTok, releasing videos about how the Combine knows what's best for us, what a threat Gordon Freeman is to society, and probably a dance video or two. Judging by how long Breen’s video messages are in Half-Life 2, we can only imagine how long his TikTok videos would be as he drones on and on. Thank goodness TikTok wasn’t around when this classic sequel was released! 9 Codsworth (Fallout 4) We sure like robots being smug to nuclear war survivors. Codsworth is the robot butler companion we thought we wanted in Fallout 4 — but after the 40th TikTok video of him making another bad joke, we would probably just be hoping for the bombs to fall again. Many people consider him to be one of the most irritating companions in a video game, so we can only imagine what drivel he might have to say on social media if it existed in the wasteland. 8 Slippy (Star Fox Series) We can only imagine what Slippy would be doing on TikTok since it feels like every waking moment of Star Fox 64 is Slippy nearly getting blown up. Most of his videos on social media apps would probably be him asking for help. Maybe he would start a Patreon to pay for all that damage his Arwing gets? Instead of asking Star Fox to cover his tail, he is probably one of those content creators who are always asking for money and fans to send them free stuff. Maybe go to flight school first before turning to TikTok, [https://flylastminutes.com/ diablo4Insight] Slippy. 7 Arcturus Mengsk (StarCraft) **** As Emperor of the Terran Dominion, Mengsk would probably spend his time spreading propaganda on TikTok if he had a channel. What’s worse, as evident in StarCraft 2 , this guy has a really nasty habit of having poor security and would probably end up getting hacked. As evident by his fate in StarCraft 2, the revolutionary with a southern drawl should probably stop making enemies out of really powerful people. Perhaps he should just stick to StarCraft briefing rooms instead of TikTok in the future. 6 Carth Onasi (Knights Of The Old Republic) Sure, Knights of the Old Republic is an amazing older game , but do you know what's not amazing? That sad look Carth Onasi gets all the time while you're trying to escape the Sith. If this is how he is during a dangerous situation, can you imagine what he would be like if he had idle TikTok time? Onasi doesn't trust the main character even when you're playing them as a generally good guy. If Onasi is that paranoid, we can only imagine the conspiracy theories that he would come up with in TikTok videos. We don't need your passive aggressiveness, Carth! We just need that sharp aim of your gun while grinding through a sewer level! 5 Navi (The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time) There are some TikTok videos that make you cringe, but do you know what would make you cringe the most? The fairy from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time following Link around, going "Hey! Hey! Listen! Hey! Watch out!" all the time. Even the creator of Zelda doesn't like Navi . We imagine she wouldn't have many followers, and would probably have to switch to Instagram Reels or something after everyone blocks her. Maybe she could go and hang out with the paper clip guy from Microsoft Word. 4 Deckard Cain ([https://flylastminutes.com/ Diablo 4 endgame guide] Series) We think Cain likes to hear himself talk in the [https://flylastminutes.com/ Diablo 4 multiplayer guide] series. We’re not sure if this Horadric mage could stick to the TikTok video length limits while ranting about the battle between Heaven and Hell. Sure, Cain can identify that weird-looking short sword for you, but do you stay a while and listen? No, you’re always heading off on the next quest. Why the heck would you want to listen to him on your phone? Perhaps it's a good thing that Tristram doesn’t get a cell phone signal anymore. 3 Doom Slayer (Doom) Usually during TikTok videos, people have something to say. Doom Slayer doesn’t talk at all, ensuring that basically every video he makes could be put on mute. We guess he could take videos of all his battles? In reality, community guidelines might take those down, since they'd probably violate some of the terms of service. Maybe he could do gun reviews, but let's be honest, not many people can afford a BFG. 2 Simon Belmont (Castlevania) When most people log into TikTok, they are doing so after a long, hard day at work. Guess who they won't see? Castlevania's Simon Belmont . This is because he has a nightly curse from Dracula, and is forced to live out the rest of his life punching walls for meat. He would be too busy fighting off the stronger enemies in the evening, rather than putting together a well-produced video for the masses to enjoy. 1 Nazeem (Skyrim) All this guy would be doing on TikTok is asking if people get to the Cloud District often. Nazeem is the kind of guy that got a blue check on Twitter by paying for it. Nazeem is annoying enough when looking down on the Dragonborn, so you can just imagine what an entirely different ballgame it would be when he tries to look down on social media types. This guy would probably start a #clouddistrict hashtag, and be the only one using it. NEXT: Video Game Characters That Would Give The Best Presents

Everything We Know About Diablo 4 With Game Director Luis Barriga

The formal release of Diablo IV is still far away, but progress in development continues to move forwards. Game Director Luis Barriga released a quarterly update on what the team has been doing, and there is quite a bit to discuss. Milestones And Blockouts Via: news.blizzard.com A major part of development in Diablo IV requires the team to have access to methods of quickly and easily testing designs in game to see if they work, or if they need to be scrapped entirely. To do this, blocking out, or "grayboxing" levels lets the team create areas with only the most basic of visual components to try out their ideas. Via: news.blizzard.com This is important to keep in mind because the images that are being touted in progress both in the development blogs, past and present, are likely to change when compared to the final product. With that in mind, Barriga also pointed out that whenever they release screenshots of areas that look highly polished, there are few reasons to consider a change unless something unexpected comes up. Storytelling – A Shift From Diablo 3 So far, it appears that methods of storytelling in Diablo IV will be more streamlined and made to naturally flow with gameplay using two primary methods: automatic camera zooming when conversing with NPCs, and real-time cutscenes (RTCs). The first is meant to work for simple interactions to focus on what they are saying, but still retaining the feel of an isometric game. When conversations are more complex, likely during the development of the main story content, the team will rely creating more hand-crafted gestures and movements. This will make specific story moments feel more genuine and complex. Via: news.blizzard.com RTCs meanwhile feel like a bit of a gamble. Barriga describes this as having the player’s camera grabbed and the perspective shifting towards feeling like a film, and this will only be used for the most important story moments. If this is true and the technique is used sparingly, reception to this should be overall positive. If, however the team overuses the effect, the game might feel choppy and [https://Flylastminutes.com/ Flylastminutes.com] disjointed, much like Resident Evil 6 did due to its overuse of breaking from gameplay to cutscene too often. Open World and Multiplayer Another major shift from previous games in the Diablo series is how players will interact with the map, with a larger focus on open-world exploration and permanent changes that happen once an area has been cleared of opponents. Barriga describes the design of the world as filled with content driven by the main story but also much that can be discovered along the way through exploration. Breaking away from only doing the main story will allow players to check out new areas, to develop their crafting, or to PvP. While the crafting system has not been detailed much so far, we are excited to see how it plays into the long-term progression of the game. Via: news.blizzard.com Camps are another feature of the open world that will permanently change how players access and develop the environment. These locations can be important for a broad range of reasons but are overrun by enemies when first discovered. Players will need to clear out these areas completely, and only when cleaned will they become friendly outposts with NPCs and waypoint locations for fast travel. This should be a great storytelling device to show the gradual reclaiming of Sanctuary from the forces of evil, though it is not yet clear how this will be impactful for endgame content. Whether working on the main story or some side content, the incorporation of multiplayer design remains a challenge for the team. Barriga states that, "Fine tuning the right approach to multiplayer in Diablo IV has been challenging…without the game ever feeling like it’s veering into massively multiplayer territory." This means that main story moments and specific dungeons will always remain private affairs, but most of the open world, including established camps, hubs, and along the roads between locations it will be easy to see other players frequently. Via: news.blizzard.com While this means that players will have the opportunity to join groups frequently, there is also no obligation to do so, as Barriga says, "It’s worth calling out that while some coordination is helpful during these events, you are never forced to join a party." Players will be able to join an event in progress if they so choose, claim their reward, and continue their way in a way that should feel seamless, if the developers succeed in their goal. Itemization And Progression For the most part, little new information has been made available with regards to gear drops and progression throughout the game. The items featured during the brief demo at BlizzCon in 2019 remain all that we have for information, and that begs the question that most players are still eagerly awaiting for Blizzard to answer: what will the endgame of Diablo IV look like? Via: news.blizzard.com While the idea of zooming in the camera and RTCs for story telling sound great, the story of Diablo is not what will carry the game for long-term play. Diablo II and Diablo III still have players logging in often at the start of each new season for ranked progression on each respective ladder system, but few would say they are drawn back by a captivating story. Without any clear indication of what the end game will look like for Diablo IV , it is difficult to be too excited about what has been covered in this quarterly update. Will cleansing an area and reclaiming it for a camp to spawn NPCs be something meaningful for pushing our character progression, or a one-time event we grind out and never see reference to again? For now, it is all speculation, but in the meantime, we can certainly see that the team is clearly hard at work to make Diablo IV the best it can be.
