    Dark Souls 2

    Did you ever finish KF1 or 2? I had them both whem they came out on the PS1 and could never finish them. It was a strange game nonetheless. Really dark and generic (even for a PS1 game) but somehow I kept coming back and playing them.

    Witcher 3

    It's a pity you can't get into it since it has such a great story, characters, and atmosphere. There is a mod that one of the devs put out that supposedly fixes a lot of the combat stuff and makes playing it with a controller much more enjoyable. REDKit After having finished reading all...

    Witcher 3

    what part are you at right now? The flashbacks happen throughout the entire game. It basically the build up to part 3. It rally takes off after you leave Flotsam.

    Tablets

    So I went out and splurged on a Nexus 7 for myself. I really like it. Great screen and battery life as well. My only complaint stems from an sketchy unresponsive screen. This happens randomly (like once every 10 hours or so) but the screen will only register some of the swipes and taps. It takes...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    The worse part were the boat trailing missions. Seriously WTF! Would be cool to have the parkour type free running in a full on priate game but without the usual AC tropes.

    Tablets

    I am currently looking for a tablet to do some reading and just general browsing. Looking to spend 100 - 200, prefer android but open to whatever. Are the Galaxy Tabs worth it for simple browsing and reading?

    Yeah FT is just like Bleach. Easy read so why not. Nanatsu No Taizai is much better.

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    You will need to progress the story in order to receive the ability to dive as that is where all the elite level upgrade plans are located. The forts also get more difficult as well.

    [manga] Everything Else

    Wow a decent chapter from Fairy Tail. Haven't had one of those in a while. Fan service was kept to just one page. I am impressed.

    Witcher 3

    Wait, are you saying the games never took advantage of the potential of the setting or the books never did?

    Witcher 3

    Yeah the first witcher game is really kinda weird story wise, it is a bit unfocused with no real mystery or suspense. I just downloaded a trainer and went god mode just to get through the story. The ending of first does set up witcher 2 albeit peripherally. It does get better once you get out of...

    The Hobbit

    Ha I have been meaning to post something to that effect. I guess most people here didn't read the Hobbit or read it with the viewpoint that they were reading adult fiction when Tolkien actually wrote those stories for his children, who were around 2-15 years old at the time. Funny seeing people...

    The Hobbit

    Bullshit, Tolkien himself retconned the Hobbit when he began writing the sequel which eventually became LOTR. He even kept retconning a lot of the mythology after he wrote LOTR.

    The Hobbit

    Porbably to appeal to a broader base. Since the original novel was essentially a children's adventure story I am going to guess that Jackson felt he had to add a romantic angle to the movie to give it more appeal to the masses.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Stopped by local Walmart/Target about an hour ago. Walmart had nothing in stock for either while Target had no PS4's (no surprise there) but did have a few Xb1's. I'm in socal BTW.

    Screeners

    One of my clients worked in the biz so he still gets screeners. He has been receiving them for the past two weeks at least. I don't even recognize any of the movies he has gotten so there is that.

    Glad they went with a Debian based distro. The most intriguing bit is they are using their own graphics compositor, thank god they are not using compiz.

    The Hobbit

    Definitely enjoyed the film. Saw the HFR. Some of the indoor scenes did have a soap opera type feel to it but the action and heavy special effects scenes looked great.

    I feel that way about the Baldurs gate games. I remember when Baldur's Gate 2 came and it was being raved about in all the gaming magazines. At the time I was playing EQ and went out and got the game based on the reviews. When I started it up even then I thought the game play was antiquated. I...

    Upcoming Games of 2014

    Makes me hella sad not seeing one decent RPG in the first half of the year considering this year sucked balls for RPG's. I guess Castlevania will do for now.

    Dragon Age: Inquisition (Plot Details in Spoilers!)

    Did you set the correct fighting behaviors for your party? The defaults are actually kinda dumb so you have to make sure your party members are not doing something like wasting mana casting aoe's when a group of mobs are a hundred feet away and there is no one around them. And like kreug...

    Witcher 3

    They haven't even announced a release date other then 2014. I seriously don't think this is going to get released until at least next winter. Too bad as I was hoping to have a nice RPG to play this spring.

    [manga] Everything Else

    Ok thanks Foggy. That clears thing up. I was confused about the whole fug thing. There seemed to be two factions going on but it wasn't apparent to me. I also think the term "bowl" for a container is kinda dumb, but whatever lol.

    [manga] Everything Else

    The authors went to some sort of convention in France so they are skipping out on the breaker for two weeks. I am a bit confused with TOG. Not sure if it is the scanlation or what but this shit isn't making any sense to me. Can someone give me a TLDR.

    Witcher 3

    Funny you should say that because I don't remember it either but the remark was a joke reference to a multi-page argument in the xbox/ps4 thread hehe. After doing some internetz research it appears that first one did have a DOF effect used in cut scenes and if I remember correctly the rowing...

    [Manga] Naruto (warning: spoilers up to current chapter)

    It was Madara who said he planned on being ressed, just the word bubble is in the panel with Hashirama's face to show his reaction. I think the underling/acquaintance is Orochimaru/kabuto. The rest is as you are fond of saying is just made up shit by the author.

    Witcher 3

    2/15/201313 was the original announcement date for the Witcher 3. I guess someone should update the title with the games real name now.

    Witcher 3

    Dude why is the boat rower all blurry? Looks fuckin' dumb. Worst gen graphics. The game seriously looks like an amazing send off for Geralt though. I won't be disappointed.

    Witcher 3

    I cannot fucking wait for this game. After seeing this I am going to put off making my new gaming rig till Nvidia releases their new cards. I want to bask in all its glory. Can't believe this is all in game.

    Wizardhawk's memorial thread (a cautionary tale of dental care and garlic)

    If your gums are swollen like that then you are probably going to need a root canal or at the most extreme an apicoectomy. Some dentists/endodontists have payment plans so it is worth checking around to see if the dentists in your area offer that. You will have to pony up a down payment though.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Same thing applies in real life. Hold your fingers in front of your eyes and focus on them, notice the background goes out of focus? It is a lot more subtle but same idea. It is actually photographic/cinema technique that it is trying to emulate. The blurriness is what cinematographers call...

    Looks exactly the same on the PC and you are now a pedo for agreeing with Gaige.
