    Camelot Unchained

    Friends of mine who worked for him say otherwise. D.B.A.G. Not Curt Schilling level of Dbag mind you, but Dbag none the less.

    Fortnite - Epic Games - Team Survival/Strategy/Crafting/Combat

    I don't know that I agree with this.. I'm having A LOT of fun playing and I haven't spent any money over the box cost. I'm getting enough stuff from playing to not sweat it.. I don't feel like the gameplay has been fucked with at all..

    Fortnite - Epic Games - Team Survival/Strategy/Crafting/Combat

    I'm still trying to grasp all the systems.. I've got an inventory full of shit I can't use and survivors/defenders I can't do anything with, and no clear idea how to make that change. Still, the moment to moment gameplay is fun for me, so I'm sticking with it.

    RIP Chester Bennington

    I I thought Ten was amazing, but never got into anything past that.. Funny thing is I knew Eddie when he played in Bad Radio in San Diego.. He was the most introverted, stage shy front man I've ever seen..

    Jacobs is a douche.. Much of what happened to him was self-inflicted.

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    With the team size they're at, their burn rate is probably over $3 million a month. All that cash isn't going to last forever.

    First EverQuest, 3 screenshots

    Never finished. It was buggy as hell too. We looked at the original PoM several times over the years, hoping to finish the original version, but we never really had the time.

    Meh.. the game is fun.. That's enough for me to pony up some cash for the developers.

    Fortnite - Epic Games - Team Survival/Strategy/Crafting/Combat

    I paid the cost of entry.. and I'm having a blast in this game. It's crazy fun. I've gotten a couple epic and one legendary from the loot llamas so far, and I haven't spent any real money outside of the initial purchase.

    Got an opportunity to pickup this guitar from John Browne himself.. Couldn't let it get away.. 2800EU shipped to San Diego..

    Bought this one from him.. Not cheap at 2800 euro, but it's 800 euro less than my custom Mayones Duvell 7-string is going to cost me..

    Monuments.. Probably because I just bought John Browne's Mayones Qatsi yesterday.

    As for Chester killing himself.. He did it on Cornell's birthday. He and Chris were close friends.. I think Chris killing himself really did more damage than he let on..

    The irony is Myles Kennedy is a better guitarist than Tremonti.

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    You can dislike the art direction. That's very subjective. A lot of people really liked it. I felt like it was trying too hard to be cartoonish and way too close to Free Realms' art style. Had the gameplay been amazing, I wouldn't have cared really. But the gameplay was awful. It's incredibly...

    RIP Chester Bennington

    I happened to like LP's music, but I like A LOT of different music. Being art, music is incredibly subjective, and not really worth calling something shit or not. I think Picasso was a fucking lunatic, but some people love his work. So OK..

    RIP Chester Bennington

    22 soldiers PER DAY kill themselves. Depression and suicide are a real problem. Nobody will give a second thought to them. Sorry to see Chester decide this was his only solution, but it shows you success and fame don't buy happiness.

    Destiny 2 - Clan Link 1st Post

    I was under the impression you lost all your previous shit because the 'light' from the Traveler was blocked or gone. Am I misinterpreting the point of that? Definitely feels like an expansion from the story, and not a new game.

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    Funny thing about facts. You not believing them doesn't matter. You seem to forget I was there. When the layoffs at SGO happened, ALL of the people SOE picked up worked on VG. When I joined the EQ team, they were still working on VG. Ancient Port Warehouse was built/populated after the layoffs...

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    Wrong again. For the better part of a year after the sale, SOE had a team of about 50 people working on VG. It was a bigger team than EQ had at that time by more than double. It wasn't until a couple years later than the VG team shrunk to about 5 or 6, right before they shut it down.

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    LOL... First off.. EQ was built off the modified Tanarus engine, not Unreal. Tanarus was a tank game that Verant developed back in the late 1990s. BigWorld was not only available to the VG team, it was offered to us, and considered by the team as a possible choice. Unreal 2 was chosen as the...

    Poll Save EQ

    The mistake there IMO is developers not embracing player's emergent gameplay. Players will always find ways to do things different than developers intended. To me that's what makes gaming cool. It's one of the things that makes games like Horizon Zero Dawn, and Breath of the Wild so amazing...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    If the game is good, people will play. If not, people won't. I think the next wave of MMO will probably be a smaller niche game, where companies aren't spending 100's of millions of dollars. I doubt we'll see another WoW level of success again.

    Considering Steve is now a Bible translator, currently working in New Guinea, that would be a neat trick.

    John Smedley hired by Amazon to produce MMOs

    VG was built on an engine that never should have been. It was Unreal 2, that then got modified to hell and back. It was not an MMO engine. Right before it was shut down, I installed it just to run around and look at some of what I'd put into the game, and it still had performance issues 7 years...

    I tried it. Had fun. It has the same intense moment to moment gameplay.. If it's D1.5.. I'm ok with that.

    The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

    I know I'm late to the party on this game, but damn this is impressive. The complete open feeling of exploration is just fantastic, and I love that there are multiple ways to approach problems.

    Admittedly I didn't give it much time.. I just got it, and then went to get the Samurai job right after.

    Hoping this game gets me to the Horizon DLC.. or at least until I come home in December.

    The only place I've seen a stack of them like that was the airport in Dubai, and they wanted $500+ for it in a shitty bundle I didn't want.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Got the new jobs.. Samurai seems pretty straight forward.. Red Mage seems complex for complexity sake in some ways.. Both look cool as hell in combat.

    Never said it was.. but people keep holding his feet to the fire on it as if they were personally wronged. They weren't.
