    EQ Never

    much of want sounds like pathfinder online. read the blog. i find it compelling, albeit, i expect it to be a huge mess at first (and mechanically/visually clunky), but at least they are aiming for a small expandable set of mechanics at first. it's also pvp centric so it will always be...

    at first glance, storybricks seems to be what gw2 was doing but everything interacts with eachother and learns from it. slides gives the impression that we'll be fighting multi tf2 bots (with relevance to one's 'base'/numbers/fpslikereactions(charge/retreat/etc:emoji_nose:. the goal is seemingly to make...

    inherent imbalances makes the game. normalize it and it is predictable. can't balance it around solo class vs class and have it perfect nor would you want to in a mmo. "that doesn't sound fun" is a juvenile response; fun is a meaningless term/metric. what it does it make it engaging. getting...

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

    i'd hold off until steambox is announced (2014?). i imagine it to be just a pc but with an ..interesting controller(perhaps sold separately and steambox not solely req) and perhaps bundled with oculus + hl3. of the 3 (ms/sony/valve), i'd trust valve ...not that it's any much better. but on...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    this reminds me of "the realm". at one point you had player made lines/queues to the instance/dungeon's entrance (instance would reset after a while and then next person could go in). along with it you get the typical social dynamics when waiting in line.

    daoc had artifacts which initally required leveling up. some would only lvl up on certain type of mobs. the way it was implemented wasn't interesting given that it was more bland pve. then again, they had class skills instead of solely items yielding skills. could be interesting, but depends on...

    Neverwinter: PC

    the sparkly path... jesus christ. if you thought minimaps were bad...you just follow it mindlessly. the game is far more involving if you turn it off. but, since it's there, you aren't going to and people don't. a ?bugged? sparkly trail was bjorked for a quest, leading to a dead end. there...

    Wheel of Time series

    voteban sanderson's books might have been refreshing given the dull latter wot books but in no way is his other books better. i really think he appeals to the under-30 crowd (adhd crowd). imo wot is best read in and around puberty as it reads from a more innocent/naive/gentle generation...

    Ender's Game (2013)

    wow so i didn't know the controversy about him. all indications point point to him being gay. doesn't seem to carry over to his writing... though, i remember vaguely there being a short injected antigay morale that seemed out of place (think it was one of the later books from the parallel...

    ah i see it now. thought they were both shown at the same time(cnd/usa) or that there might have been a leak. next week is going to be broadcasted at 9 wed on city (normally 10pm est)

    ? 7 is 'sorbet' 6 is 'fromage' this week's broadcast was 6 (from tv.com). alot of the ones labelled 7 is actually 6. is there an actual 7 out? (what's the name of it if so)

    Ender's Game (2013)

    yupyup. i guess for me it's annoying trying to get ppl take recommendations(moreso reading than anything); you have to sell it and just down play it and your experiences with it. moreover, how you sell/recommend that book will likely determine how they experience that book.

    Ender's Game (2013)

    perhaps ideally this would be read at a younger age but to not be able to enjoy it at any age makes me think that it has to do with one's ego: where overly scrutinizing/solving the plot goes to invalidate the book or that the popularity/easytoread of it serves to invalidate/demean it. i mean...

    Camelot Unchained MMO

    tf2 cloak and dagger is great and was updated with a counter (that sniper's shield). more fun when it is not balanced (mind you not game breaking op, but situationally so). just give everyone op abilities so they can qq over eachother and everyone will be discontent and pining over eachothers...

    2 days work in unity for the housing demo. it's not concrete. it doesn't have to be impressive. it's probably even a good way to come up with ideas. i don't expect a fully fledged implementation and the idea itself is great and has potential. it's just an idea. one of many "whatif's" in his...
