With that resolved, it’s time to get snarky.
What’s better:Half-Life’s Snarks orPlanescape: Torment’s Litany Of Curses?
Half-Life’s Snarks
What’s even better thanan AI-controlled friend just running about helping me fight?
an AI-controlled friend just running fighting anything it sees, including me.
The addition of hubris makes everything better.
Snarks are a biological weapon in Half-Life.
They are essentially mobile, autonomous, biting, explosive flashbangs.
But if no enemy is close, Snarks will turn on you.
Then after 20 seconds, they burst in a little acidic explosion.
Snarks are arguably of limited use in Half-Life.
I suppose a handful are best used as flashbangs with potential bonuses.
But what fun when it does work out!
They’re very funny in multiplayer, too.
Planescape: Torment’s Litany Of Curses
I like idea of taunt moves in RPGs.
If a big lad in a fight is busy grunting and roaring and yelling, leave him be.
Alright, he’s asking for it.
And if he’s just a hovering skull, surely he’ll shatter in one punch?
The linesare even voiced.
These conversations will inspire Morte, boosting his Litany Of Curses.
What a thrill to learn insults from across the multiverse.
But which is better?
Litany Of Curses for me.
But what do you think, reader dear?
