Meh. When in doubt, freeze the body.

Um...wow.

I'm still holding on to see what other tier rewards they add in. Wil mentioned adding a new tier rewards to replace sold out tiers every week -- seems counter-intuitive to me, but I guess it attracts new donors at the end. I'll probably end up going in for a tshirt or the exclusive tt episode...

I know we have a at least one D20 gaming group that was going on for a while, so I feel comfortable posting this here. For those that don't know,TableTopis a monthly webcast on theGeek&Sundry Channelwhere Wil and a few guests get together with a board/card game and record the gaming session...

He's not wrong though. A lot of it is just a big game of hot or not. A few of my female friends share their stories when we go out to eat before concerts and its definitely funny hearing how some of them justify whether or not to answer a message for x, y, or z reasons. It's been a while since...

Game is intended to be deceptively shallow right? Easy entrance, low barrier to entry, high monetization? Start with 15-30 heros. Release new heros every 2 weeks or a month and offer advanced release play periods. Everyone wins. Get to around 80 heros and start revamping heros and start...

A PvE game that encourages strong, deliberate PvP does not seem that hard to design in this sort of setting. Or am I alone in this? Mirror the real world. Extremely limited/finite resources with few options for renewable materials. You want guns? Siege the gang that took the local armory with...

My experience has been that most girls just want to be the center of attention. Even a moderately decent looking guy has a good chance of getting past a bad pickup line and into a conversation that can end up in numbers or a "my place or yours" situation Not sure why you're nut checking a guy...

Random question since I'm not a fan of the Premier League. Is the thread going to split next month or are you guys doing a new thread for the World Cup?

I was in a game once where something similar happened. The only difference being it was an ES eating the hook, enchanting totem, then getting hooked again by Rubick across the river to safety. For all the trolls and rage-babies, the game has some memorable moments.

So I heard a lot of mixed hype up until beta. Then everything (including the few positive murmurings) died off -- rightly so?

Game has flaws. It's not SimCity, but its definitely not Civ 2.

Actually you do, more often in some areas than others obviously. Turn off mass media and read your local Sheriff's blotter or watch your local news team.

When I was in middle school we had an attempted stabbing on campus. It was a girl.

I got civ5 off humble and I feel ripped off -- it's that bad. It looks pretty, I guess. Where was the gameplay though? Where was the adjusting AI? Where were the game mechanics to make each victory goal require completely different play styles?

So unimproved Civ 5 with skins and new tilesets? Uh...

If DayZ and H1Z1 converge on the same territory would you jump ship to SoE?

I think his logic is fine, but I still think he's just wrong not stupid. Most users are more likely to hurt themselves with a knife than a gun. I've been in the ER working on a guy who was shot 11 times in the back and still lived and had a 90% recovery. Could've had a similar event here. Kid...

NP teaches you to look for opportunity, which is by and far the most important aspect of map awareness.

The only legit online only courses I've seen are for recertification from American RC/AHA for professionals (those in settings that use it frequently), but even then it's provided via an institution (regional trauma center) paying for the liability. Every other legit course has a skill portion...

Good evil is mostly a diplomacy thing. Morale is almost entirely terrain/city (de)buffs.

As an avid bounty hunter, I've collected more than my fair share of boots. From stupid shit like that same goes for energy/life boosters and the odd eagle horn / hyperstone. Random tangent. If you're roshing don't drop an itembworth more than your boots for aegis/cheese if you're doing rosh...

In the beta update video from Swen, he mentions part of the last things going in are language localizations and voice acting. Not sure if the comment about no voices was a gripe or not.

Only playing knight, but I've noticed the ai focuses on expansion first then filling in holes unless indies pick a fight first. So, yes initially but not as the mid game progresses.

Or developers and marketers could look at the same world and get different numbers. Depending on whether or not they're being realistic. Playable space vs available generated space are two completely different things. You'll play through x amount of space out of y amount of world. Rooftops...

Twitch streams are like used sharps - I only handle them to a disposable container because otherwise AIDS. . . I never disputed the difference in available productions quality, only the generic opinion that the content is superior - which is purely subjective.

I don't see how Dota 2/ROFLeague are any more entertaining. I only watch because I like to see certain team's try things I can never get the channel/pugs to do. The only major entertainment point of contention comes from some of the commentators because of their humor or how off-base they are...

Never doubt the Swen.

Druid/Theo are pretty weak. Definitely think Warlord/Dreadnaught are where its at with units and Sorc/Rogue with abilities spells. The only issues with sorc/rogue is getting dicked over in research and not being able to go pew pew from turn one. Feels Star Wars Galaxy all over again. All...

After the initial "netcode" patch, shotties on PC were drastically more reliable, not perfect by any stretch but you can make the argument on some maps vs random high rof weapon.

Rubberbanding in CA has only been an issue for consoles. Anyone getting it on PC has a shit connection/server. I can now say I'm 3/3 on sound loop bug for new expansions on release. DICE seems to be learning though because it doesn't result in a crash or a stall anymore and resets on death...

Play a bit more Reth, the RNG can make items that you can't replicate (resist armor, for example) because of the point value being 6 or 8. All heroes being innately melee calvalry still blows my mind, but I remove my previous complaint about range heroes. Waste an inventory slot works, I guess.

The Shrine is one of the OP units I was referring to. Ran a custom game and the AI did 1 Hero and 4 shrines and steam rolled several stacks that got in its way.

I'm a little disappointed. There's plenty of customization that's important, but I think the game is lacking in enough other areas to come off ruining my initial experience. Race specific units have been underwhelming some are pretty op while others will never get touched because your class...

Feel free to enlighten me where I was "ripping" Sean, Soyc?. Go to page 3 of the section to Mist's thread the mods were too lazy to move. I gave that thread more chaff through joking around than being straight up here, and I have nothing but respect for Mist. Wait. That would require you...

The AC 130 and Trans Gat changes are going to be fun.

Does the thread receive more attention because Sean posted it, yes. Would it have been called out if someone else posted it, yes.

Incase anyone wanted to know, again. Target is purportedly running a Buy 2 get on free deal on video games from 6 Apr - 12 Apr 14.

Read the thread. There are several deals that do not pertain strictly to steam or digital distro.
