    Total War series

    That's a fair point as far as the direction they've been going with the franchise, but I've never once used any of the first person mode stuff and haven't felt like I'm missing anything. It's just not why I play these games.

    Total War series

    They moved basically all of the stuff that used to be out in the countryside into the cities for this iteration. It's actually one of the design decisions I think there's a legitimate gripe with, as it has the exact effect you mention. There's no reason to care about any of your terrain that...

    I am still flabbergasted that people are actually complaining about character models in a game like this.

    MLB 2013 season

    Uh, they've significantly upgraded their talent, and that makes a hell of a lot more difference than a manager. I say that as someone who likes the Tampa Bay org and Joe Maddon a lot.

    MLB 2013 season

    Wellllll... It's not that managers don't matter, but we have absolutely zero idea how to measure their impact. We can sortof guess at the impact of ingame decisions, but that's relatively minor. The things that managers do that are likely to matter most, we don't know very much about; the...

    Satriani, particularly Surfing With The Alien-era Satriani, is amazing.

    It's worth playing a Malkavian just for the stop sign scene.

    Eh, to me that's as it should be. It's like THE classic tactic from those times. It should work pretty damn well in most cases.

    Total War series

    I haven't had a single performance issue so far, and most people in this thread seem to be agreeing. Why are we having such different experiences, if the game is SO unoptimized as you claim it obviously is?

    Total War series

    It's really not that bad, bro. The interface probably won't be as weird to you if you haven't played prior Total War games, and bayr is just flat-out wrong about the performance. I think he's trying to play on a TRS-80 or something.

    The Official Guitar Thread

    Hitting a bit of a motivation lull. It's been hard to really sit down and hardcore PRACTICE rather than just noodle around for a bit and then get distracted by something else. I think I need a specific song to work on, rather than exercises and scales and licks.

    Total War series

    Yeah, the control points thing is one gripe that's actually legit. I lost a battle once because I lost control points in just the natural flow of a battle. I was like "how the fuck did I just lose that battle?"

    GMG has it for 47.99. It's worth that if you liked any of the previous TW games.

    Anarchy Online New Graphics Engine

    That was actually how we trained newbie ARKs. Everyone went through that phase while they were training to become a "real" ARK. You were watched like a goddamn hawk to make sure you didn't abuse any of your (very limited at that point) powers, and if you managed to not fuck up for a few weeks...

    Don't lie, Utnayan. You don't like anything. GMG had it for 47.99, so eh, I went ahead and grabbed it. I like TW games a lot and I'm willing to put up with some bugs/the usual AI issues.

    The cartoon that this is from is "Three Little Bops", quite possibly the finest Looney Tunes cartoon ever made. Do yourself a favor and go watch it.
