    Hannibal

    it was really pretty but i had to turn on cc. the velvety colors are what makes it. s3 isn't apparently going to follow the crimeforumla. there's lots of fuller-spoiler interviews posted on reddit; one where he mentions that they haven't yet the rights for silenceofthelambs.

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    workshop mentions qeynos being a newer city. stylistically, thr nature of the avg size of voxels leads to a requiring a larger than life scale to get allthe details expected in rl architecture buildings. that, in part, i find gives a visually reduced complexity similar to that of the...

    EQN:Landmark Beta Starts March 26th!

    it feels slow cause the volunteerwork<-->workshopfeedback is slow (weekly), though they have intermittently posted on the forums as well. ...it takes a few weeks before the style permeates and normalizes from a few builders to the rest. i wish they'd post more frequently. more frequent workshops...

    their weekly dev videos are a waste of time and seemed to me that it could have been spent working on the actual game.. the exception being the workshop videos. hire this guy instead--403 Forbidden

    the workshop/competition videos are very insightful. their iterative process with the worshops really shows through in player builds. the recent kerran winners' entries are stunning, let alone that it was done with voxels. eqn, if nothing else, will be interesting just to see the player's...

    Pathfinder Online

    earlier they added 2 ingame items for sale in their store. i just find it distasteful. the pricing, the timing, that they are in alpha etc. CU might be the only thing on the horizon that isnt wholly microtransacted.

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    all the bsc info was released. had they information at their kickstarter i woukd have backed ..i suspect though that the ideas would have been controversial and far removed from daoc that they feared it would negatively the ks; that, and the fact that they didn't have it all planned out and were...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    regarding the magic system: sounds pretty damn good. kinda like poe & what-d3-aspired-to-be & guildwars. spells as mutable ingame obj is a step forward; i've always wanted this done well in a mmo (and not just dragonage / vg spellreactive). on top of x + y = z, i very much like the idea of...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    BSC interesting. not sure if there are further (class) stat/skill restrictions. nonethless, i prefer this concept over pathfinder's (times yields xp to be used as currency which you can spend on anything). hopefully there isnt class swapping. attenuate skillxp gain exponentially per day to...

    Hannibal

    eh s1 wasn't that great; s2 is. just manage expectations for those interested in starting. didn't see that abigale/scully twist coming. another season with largely the same set pieces / characters would be drawn out. next season/'the chase' should be refreshing.

    Hannibal

    the tv interpretation of the guy's face was just genius; kinda the inverse of the movie, which i was mindlessly expecting. (got a alexender mcqueen/thecell vibe from the show visually). gameofthrones feels vulgar/explicitly resolved (like a stage play) compared to this show. i'd recommend...

    Hannibal

    ha. that one slipped by me. feels that the actors in the show have .. settled down in their characters -- feels more natural. the episodes like the one with the bees feels like supernatural/filler/sherlock(us) and needs to be cut. in fact i'd prefer one less episode per season with that type of...

    eventually oculus consumerversions will be a tablet/console itself (android likely). ideally their first cv would be this.. cept that tech : performance : $ doesn't add up yet. hopefully steam's openvr will be not locked solely to their steampoweredplatform. nintendo should hop on this and...

    any servers with a diff ruleset? or plans of diff rulesets? i can't imagine this type of server would hold my attention past a week. i vote for a server which has a guranteed private spot and contested communal areas which anyone can destroy/create (with no autohealing -- the access to the...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    this ks makes the camelot ks look professional. they both had nothing to show at first and only started prototyping as the ks went underway. most significantly though was the pledge that mj would back it himself when it was funded -- though nothing bound him to that claim. drop the ks. start it...

    minimap: no... if you have to have it make it a skill for rangers tracking or something. that they have a minimap doesn't bode well (insightwise/ target audiencewise) highfantasy + wowgraphics is an oxymoron to me. would prefer a more stylized vg style. edit: eh, i guess it is just some of...

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    maybe. depends on their agenda. maybe it worked -- they did remarket vg with iod. maybe that did boost enough subs to warrant keeping it afloat. were they to implement top raid stuff only instead of iod, i doubt it would have less finacial impact than that of trying to garner new attention for...

    yeah, no hybrid servers. one ffa pvp server though please. on pvp: i've found it to be the opposite; granted, there's about the same amount of assholes on both sides. moreover, 'community' has more 'depth' when said person can kill you. pve'ers, i find, expect that if they work hard enough...

    The Hobbit

    on hfr: youtube douglas trumbull. the cinematic 'language' is different; static camera shots are more comprehensible/lessjarring. (with 24fps if you move the camera too much and you lose the 3d effect completely.) like having the ingame cinematic camera move by itself but ignoring your head...

    SteamOS

    this is a more long term strat. it's open source(gpl i think) ..so that you aren't forced into ms decisions. it's mentioned that the kernel/drivers are optimized... not so much the games at this point. interesting, they mentioned that their games won't be steamos exclusive. actual benefits...

    presumably, steamos is for native linux games only. ..eventually though i imagine you coudl use wine on a modded distro. also i think you can stream games from another comp. i'm interested in their prototype vrhmd they are going to show that's (expected) to be techviable in a few years time...

    this is among the lowest form of comedy. it's more an inherent human exploit of debugging/comedy. (see ramachandran for his idea of humour) it has mainstreamed into everything. merchant's standup was fine/good even.

    Shadowbane Emulator opening this weekend for a week

    do homeland asians dislike seeing ascii chars similar to how i dislike seeing asian alpha chars in mmos? it's more a dislike of functionality -- all the characters aren't on the keyboard. (also the need for ime/builtin or external) stick to ascii keys imo for naming convention or at least /t...
