    Nah, that's pushing it. They'll just have a teen drama: Ma and Pa Kent, The Early Years.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    Oh, don't get me wrong. I think the game is a lot of fun, hence the burnout. And splinters are awesome, I got all but 3 of my heroes using them (no random boxes). Don't remember how many I have, 12 or so? But you have to keep in mind, when I was playing was when they were just starting to tweak...

    So, basically, another cop show. That's awesome, we definitely need more of those.

    Marvel Heroes 20xx

    Burned myself out on this game just before Ghostrider patch, but I played a shit-ton before that, and I noticed the same weird shit with RIF and uniques. Math nerds will tell you you're crazy, confirmation bias, small sample size, etc. It's bullshit. When you've played rpgs for as long as we...

    The Walking Dead

    Having gay songs at the end of the episode is the latest tv fad. I hope it dies soon. In a fucking fire.

    While I prefer kb/m to a controller in most cases, I've been thinking for a while that the keyboard really needs a replacement for gaming. It was never intended to be used as such, and while it gets the job done, it's becoming clearer every day that we need something new. And I'm surprised it's...

    I'm a little worried about this too. But, wouldn't it be crazy if 5 years from now, season 1 is considered the weakest? heh And thanks to everyone for the car battery lesson, as useless as it was. Who fucking cares if a car battery can kill someone, he was obviously going to use it for...

    I know, right? So brutal that the even the other two skinheads flinched when he did it.

    Too true. Although, if they survived gen pop while waiting for trial, they probably would've gotten the chair anyway. Fetus murder is pretty serious.

    You don't have to go shieldless for a parry build, but it's an option. I would practice with a target shield (slightly longer parry window) until you get the hang of it, at least. I practiced my parry in the burg until I was good enough to parry Havel from full to zero. Edit: Also, yeah...

    You. The smoakin hot girl in your avatar pic has yellow hair. That means you must be the Yellow King.

    They can cram so much cool shit intosomeepisodes because they wasted so much time on that stupid guest directors wanna-be arty bullshit that they were backlogged.

    Except the only thing that really made the game a little easier was the Master Key. The rest was pretty much junk.

    Thief (2014)

    I can relate somewhat. Early on in my gaming career I got in the habit of "saving" consumables, cuz, ya know, I could use this now, but I might need it more later and wish I had it. So, I basically end up finishing games with 99% of all consumables unused.

    Thief (2014)

    Yeah, I get that. Could still be a mild form of OCD. It really depends on the person's reaction if they are unable to/prevented from satisfying that urge. Maybe not a panic attack, but even if it makes them slightly uncomfortable/irritable it could be a problem.

    Dark Souls 2

    Not really. You can trade it to Snuggly yeah, for a junky souvenir of reprisal. And the director's statement made it sound like the pendant was a really important item.

    Nope. If that were true, he wouldn't be wanted in groups.

    It wasn't so much that the item itself was a troll. It was him hinting in the interview that it had a use.

    Dark Souls 2

    Doesn't sound like that to me. It says "increasesdifficultyof enemies" so I would assume more hp/damage, maybe more aggressive too. I remember from a vid, that the devs made an announcement during the network test that they were going to make enemies tougher (somehow did it on the fly during the...

    Dark Souls 2

    Finally some clear descriptions of the starting gifts. Dark Souls 2 Wiki - Gifts Kinda have to go for Petrified Something, since I find consumables to be a waste. The ring is still as useless as ever, but at least it's not a trap this time. The seed sounds like a cool way to troll dickhead...

    Dark Souls 2

    Here's a vid from a guy who got to play the first few hours of the game at the Namco offices in London, contains some early spoilers but no gameplay footage. Just linking it here because the beginning contains exact starting stats for each class and the names of all the starting gifts. Dark...

    Dark Souls 2

    Someone pointed out that "Black Armor" is spelled wrong in the display shot, on that Siliconera article. Unless they are actually selling a black love edition. Also, just noticed, that "while supplies last" is from the consoles collector's edition and refers to the knight figurine. Seems...

    Thanks for the info, Sean. I was desperately hoping the late April release date was a fake, so I wouldn't have to wait an additional 6 damn weeks for the game. Thanks for shattering my dreams, bro! j/k *limps away, shoulders slumped in dejection*

    Dark Souls 2

    Yes, I'm not arguing that, I'm just talking about coding-wise. They've been cross-developing with the pc in mind from the start this time around. I don't see them needing an extra month and a half for the pc version. I don't know all that much about the process, but wouldn't they be rendering in...

    Dark Souls 2

    Yeah, April 25th seems a bit far, the PC version isn't going to bethatdifferent. It's just some better textures and a different control scheme, right?

    I'm pretty sure the only things that really need ongoing Marvel approval is the hero models/costumes, which gets done well before any coding starts for that hero.

    I don't use a controller, so I can't speak to that. And yeah, GFWL is shit, but I never had to use it, since I played offline. I've put several hundred hours in, and the only glitch I ever encountered was a single fall through the world when sliding down a ladder (which I've done many times with...

    8 Starting classes. http://fextralife.com/forums/t25899/...rting-classes/ There's a rumor that there may be 2 more yet to be announced, since both previous souls games had 10. Interesting that they went from every class starting with a shield, to just 1.

    Dark Souls 2

    I've been trying to figure this out myself. And it's been difficult to decipher from various vids, plus there have been changes between the time of the network test and the recent "almost complete" build some people have access too. As near as I can figure, as of now, it's affected by both...

    The Originals

    All the Rebecca shit is lame retconning anyway. All made up in the last few episodes to add drama. Remember how the only reason she came to New Orleans was cause she was worried about Elijah, then was leaving again, then turned around to help Elijah again. Then all of a sudden, she wants to take...

    Dark Souls 2

    Yeah, wasn't sure where he got the idea they were equal. Pretty much everyone agrees that playing on PC w/controller is vastly superior to the console. I saw a guy in one of the network test vids using that power-stance two weapon hit, he was dual wielding greatswords.

    It could just as easily mean "in each area". Pretty much everywhere in DS1 could be considered "near a bonfire." Except fucking New Londo Ruins.

    "As I experience some difficulty getting past this stone man, I'm told that certain enemies will only respawn near each bonfire a certain number of times, which the PR rep estimates to be about 15. However, you'll need to actually kill them rather than simply respawn at the bonfire for this...

    Dark Souls 2

    Yeah, I've heard about being able to reset the limit. Which, in my opinion, makes even less sense. Let's add a mechanic, supposedly to reduce farming, then add another mechanic to give you the ability to negate the first mechanic? And this item, is it a drop you have to farm for? An item you...
