    I remember beating Kings Quest 2 by myself as a kid on a neighbors computer. Years later I played the KQ where you start off kidnapped by the wizard. I vaguely remember it was a *really* odd game, poorly designed too. If you didn't do something simple in the beginning, or you pet the cat...

    Planetside 2

    It's not *too* bad as a new player, the default guns are pretty sweet, and it's cheap to get the first few ranks of whatever armor you want, with the super expensive later ranks only adding a few %. Vehicles are another matter though, takes forever to finally kit one out. PlanetSide 2 PC...

    Planetside 2

    Ugh, I need to hurry and close on this house so I can finally move in then log in. As much as I don't really care about my K/D ratio, playing with solid 500ms lag via hotel "internet" isn't much fun :P /priorities!!!

    First World Problems

    Ugh come on. SPOILER that shit man. When I go to Subway and they run out of spinach, I just cancel the sandwich. Lettuce is so...blech.

    Guild Wars 2

    I loved that whole 8-bit like event. That was pretty ingenious. Can you still access it somehow? The Halloween jump tower was brutal, but it was fun & funny making the same sorry attempts with the same people, and listening to the chatter

    Honor Bound - ios, android - Rage of Bahamut meets Final Fantasy

    This runs really badly on my Nexus 4. Tons of stuttering when I move / get attacked. I'll click where I want to move, it freezes for 10-20 seconds then I fight. Everytime. Seems like a good game other than that!

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    Someone posted this GIF when the OP rogue healing soul first came out, I sorta lol'd. Even post-nerf its way better than my warrior heal spec, at least in pvp =\

    Guild Wars 2

    I've tried to force myself back a few times, but there's just no incentive. WvWvW sorta almost got me to play again, but the 'rank' structure bonuses are so minimal* (+.0005% damage to guard NPCs!!1!1!!) it might as well be no bonuses. Even Rift's shitty AA bonuses are better :P * Ok the...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    At risk of turning this into a tipping thread, I've encountered a bunch of bathroom attendants lately, and it's just an awkward experience for me that I didn't ask for, so no tip ever. I also never tip people I don't see (hotel room cleaners, etc), oh and cashiers.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    When you go to see a show, and the opening line is always 'How are you guys doing tonight??!?!?!!' *not quite loud cheering* 'Oh come on,you can do better, HOW ARE YOU GUYS DOING TONIGHT?!?!?' *same level of cheering, then the show finally continues on* I swear, every show / comedian or...

    Incompetent attorney

    Good luck! Sounds like quite a mess. I'm in NO WAY defending the idiotic remarks regarding back injuries, but people are so fed up with disability fakers, that they hear 'back injury' and instantly assume you're faking. Cops / Firefighters have been known to game the disability / back...

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I've figured out that I have an internal faction system similar to EQ1, and by default obese people and smokers are on my KoS list by default. If you are a smoker, only after you convince me you never ever leave cigarette butts on the ground will I accept you :P Obese and a smoker? No way...

    Brave Frontier

    This thread made me download this on my Nexus4, but it keeps crashing after I name myself then select an element (ie thunder, water). Is that a new feature? I'll try back later when I can get in.

    My favorite was the Mythic / Warhammer fiasco where people's credit cards were charged 10,20, 30+ times in one month. Idiots who actually used their debit cards online and lived paycheck to paycheck couldn't afford rent :P

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    You have to go fairly far up the Liberator tree to get the decent warrior AoE heals, so it's probably not worth it. Most of what's been posted is spot on regarding PvP. I too am rank 81. There is no world PvP, except for rogue teams shard swapping off their lonely pvp server to find people...

    Rift: Planes of Telara

    I actually play this now, but 70% of my time is spent pvping, with the rest random events or other stuff. I can't stand the end game raiding scene anymore - I gave it a shot with the old FoH Rift guild. They were well organized I'll give them that! For some reason I actually do love the...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    I had a streak like this as well, hadn't petitioned in any game in like forever. Then Rift's expansion hit, and beat me over the head with no less than 3 separate story quest bugs, stopping any and all progression. I wish more MMO companies were as transparent as this one and GW2, it's fun...

    If he's the only one talking for that split second, you can just hit - a bunch on your numpad to mute whoever is talking. + turns up that cute girls voice who is super relaxing. Every server has one. I'm stuck on the road with a shitty laptop, but once I get back to my PC I plan on...

    4 months down the line when population is in the shitter, they might just do what RIFT did, and get rid of the hard coded 2 faction crap; at least as far as grouping/guilding with them.

    Can it display more than 30 players on the screen without crashing? Or 50 if you shut player models completely off?(yes that was an option, my uber PC still crashed even then)

    The Last of Us

    TLoU was pretty much a perfect game for me. A true mastery of the art form. I even watched a 2 hour youtube video on the making of it (obviously dont watch it if you don't want spoilers). So many awesome moments, and moments where I wanted to play through super fast to see what the hell...

    Planetside 2

    There was actually a lot of viewers to this twitch feed, and it was pretty sweet to watch. If we can get good publicity for the game to draw in new blood, it'd be good for PS2's longevity for sure.

    Planetside 2

    I'm so hardcore for this game that I'm in the middle of moving closer to my East Coast server. Once I drop that 250ms+ lag, I'm gonna be godlike*!!! In the meantime, I won't even attempt to play this on hotel internets. *Warning: Godlike not a guarantee in all 50 states, void where prohibited.

    Guild Wars 2

    There is some very minor progression in RvRvR. By minor I mean you'll spend days getting +0.0005% damage to Guards or something. But hey it's a bar to fill.

    Planetside 2

    There's so many little things in this game you would never learn without getting lucky. I had no idea on the shift thing my first few months playing (works with many non-infil weapons too). Another thing I end up explaining every time I'm NOT an engineer: *every* engie loadout has ammo...

    Good old arrogance. Is anyone still playing that can take a screenshot of the little population bars for each instance of Cyrodil? Just curious to see how empty it is now.

    Wii U

    I still havent figured out what the characters mean stat wise. If I pick Bowser and my 7 year old picks Yoshi, she trounces me. If we both pick Yoshi then I win. It's odd, she even passes me on straightaways even though my speed bar is maxxed :P I suppose it takes that long to fully...

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    THAT's the best you can do for ugly Navy chick pics? Both of those would clean up nicely. It's almost like porn that starts off with a librarian, once they take off their glasses and undo their hair, boom. Huh, on second thought, a quick google failed to find me an ugly Navy girl ;\ /related

    Planetside 2

    After playing engineer 99% of the time, I've been trying other playstyles. I maxxed out the infil motion sensor (not the dart), and man that thing is OP. Even shows what direction people are facing. I don't like the SMG cheese style of play, so I run around with the SOAS-20 or whatever the...

    Wildstar Launch Thread - Server: Stormtalon | Faction: Dominion

    Please do. The main reason I read these forums is to get opinions on possible fixes to my MMO habit. If I still hear enough good things when I'm done moving in a few weeks (especially the later level stuff) I may pick it up. I fully understand that I can't give this game an honest, fair review...

    Call it MMO burnout, but I'm with ya. I can't pinpoint why it's dull to me, it just is. Couple that with unable to join a guild and enjoy the social aspect, and I think guest passes are genuinely hurting their bottom line. It's like demoing the worst part of your game :*(
