Or just buy the fucking game.

If you mean the quests system, and you worked there, then you should know it was added for a bunch of reasons. You should also remember that it was conceived of and pushed through (with much arguing with management) by the content designerss themselves because it made the process of creating...

I'm not big on pirating, even something like Amiibos. I am perfectly willing to shell out the money for a couple to get the goodies... but they are completely sold out literally everywhere. You cannot buy a single Legend of Zelda Amiibo of any kind no matter how new or old in the entire...

Funnily enough she is fluent in Italian too. There is just something about how her voice changes when she switches to Russian, it drops a bit and sounds more assertive. I dig it.

No, they didn't. The changes were in the works long before that and were absolutely driven from the bottom up, they did not come from the top down. It took time for them to get into public Betas, but they were in the works for many months prior to that. There was that initial beta that was an...

Firstly it didn't happen at the last minute, secondly it didn't go full theme park (dungeons weren't instances for example). The changes you are referring to were implemented over the last year and a half or so of production. It began happening when msft was still paying the bills and those...

You not only don't have all the details, you don't have anything. This isn't an opinion, I am telling you how it happened.

You couldn't be more wrong. That was 100% completely internal and most of those changes were made before the Sony deal.

The SOE deal gave the game more time, not less. It might not have even come out without it.

Eh, that just seems like a small process issues, it certainly wasn't worth the cost and annoyance of having to build and run the entire system internally.

Girlfriend is uncomfortable with coarse language so I just make her speak to me in Russian. Doesn't matter what she says and it is hot as fuck.

Not true at all, the Sony deal came with zero strings and access to more resources. There was literally no downside for Sigil as far as development is concerned.

Sigil didn't cede anything, it has no one to blame but itself.

I can't watch the review due to the sever being overloaded (DOS or Otherwise), so take what I am about to say with a grain of salt. From what I gathered reading discussions of the reviews, it wasn't so much that he gave it a low score it was that his review was inaccurate and contradictory in...

Yes, and it is significantly better than W3. Although I played it for many hours W3 is far too reliant on the cut-scene and "Movie with some game between the scenes " crutch. The world interaction (outside of scripted events), gameplay, and combat of W3 were not very polished or detailed. The...

Possibly, I think it is more that they are just fundamentally different and useful for solving different types of problems. The problems computers solve in our daily life aren't well suited to these types of solutions. I think there will be another "transistor" revolution we have yet to see, I...

So, without writing a large thought out review I am just going to say that I am unbelievably impressed with this game. I am usually pretty harsh on games, mostly because even "good" games often express very poor game design from an abstract designery perspective (looking at you Uncharted)...

This is my understanding of quantum computers, they will not and can not replace the computers we use in our daily lives. They will be incredibly useful for specific domains of problems, mostly in scientific research and especially for things like cryptography, but we almost certainly will...

You can make a fire anywhere, just drop wood and flint and then hit the pile with a metal weapon. I picked that up from a loading screen tip I think.

Numbers for Conan look fairly accurate to me.

Been using a standing desk for like 5 years now. The trick is not to get one of those ridiculously overpriced adjustable ones. Instead I just bought some of the expandable Ikea desk legs (GERTON Leg, adjustable - IKEA) and put them on the normal cheap Ikea desk board. Works like a charm and...

I don't like the sound of that at all...

The numbers check out, basically I would be making most of my money off of the bank's money. The about $1400 is the appreciated cash value of my portion of the down payment, which was made in cash so there is no note on that money. I wouldn't be making 6% on my small down payment, but more...

Heh, if she did I don't think she would have low-balled me so hard. She wants to just give me my investment back + the 6.2% right now. We are talking a net of only about $1400. While all investments are a risk, this is brand new real estate in a fast growing European capital, given the...

Things with the new girl are great, no signs of crazy yet. Still soon though, will report back on that in a few months. However, I anticipate things getting dicey tomorrow with the ex and how we plan on handling the new apartment we invested in last spring. She seems to be under the...

It's fucking bizarre, I know. If I were in your shoes I would assume nearly all the things you guys have assumed as well. But after spending nearly the entire weekend with her, and talking quite a bit, everything appears to be on the up and up. It really does seem the universe has conspired...

Just to be clear, same guy 3 times, not 3 different guys. Anyway, it was probably a mistake to post that story, it is pretty out there. I didn't start posting about what was going on in my life expecting this twist, and I just sort of shared it because it was relevant to the line of discussion...

Your skepticism is my fault, I shouldn't have posted anything without having time to go into detail, and this is pretty damn incredible. If I was a different poster you'd probably think I was the one bullshitting, but I am telling the truth and so is she. First thing to keep in mind is that...

She was the one who said not now when I asked, obviously I respected that. But I can assure you that things are speeding fast away from the friend zone in no uncertain terms. This morning however I got a very good explanation as to why... she is still a virgin. I was pretty surprised by that...

We haven't had sex yet, but everything up to it after last night (only the 3rd time we'd ever been together). That is actually rather slow for a Norwegian, the week before a drunk girl pretty much clubbed me over the head and asked me to fuck her after a party where we only talked for like two...

Thanks for the well wishes and support everyone. That second date sort of turned into a 3rd date the next day and late night meetings tonight, tomorrow, and Sunday evening though one of us is busy every one of those days. We are both a little mystified by how well we've hit it off, the 2nd and...

Have my first day at the new job and another date tomorrow. Wish me luck!

Eggs are healthy, they are loaded with nutrients, their is no reason to pathologically avoid them. Grazed local eggs are better (better fat and nutrient profile). I minimize my carb intake (1 piece of fruit max per day), but I am especially prone to gaining fat. I generally thing carbs are...

I've been running around this for as long as you have and there is a shit ton of conflicting evidence in the details. But, essentially, what I've sussed out of this is that beyond what you can do in your kitchen, the more processed something is the worse it is for you. Now, someone is going to...

I'll see what I can do, but it will probably take some time (and trust) considering we've only seen each other twice and I wouldn't post it without her permission.

Jokes on them, NMS pretty obviously didn't even have a designer working on it.

Alright... so... About 2 1/2 months ago my long-time partner (almost 8 years, we have a place together) told me she didn't love me anymore and left. I know what you are thinking, and no she didn't meet someone else, I thought this at first as well but I am certain that isn't what happened...

Got a bit of a story if anyone is interested

Honest question, what are the rules on shutting down pure thread-shitting? This is usually one of the better threads on the forum.
