That's the thing though, he was never really a gaming god, he was the software/coding god but he just happened to be working on the software for the first big FPS that set the scene and changed everything. If you have many hours to kill sometime get on youtube and watch some of his Quakecon...

Pretty huge news. If anybody can figure out how to fix it so I don't feel like puking after using my Oculus Rift for 15 minutes, he can.

GOD O GOD O GOD O GOD Please let this be as good as I want it to be.

There is nostalgia for classic 80's AD&D modules baked in but that probably means nothing to 90% of the people playing the game. The game is a big gear grind but if that is addicting to you (it is to me) you can't put it down.

I loved the drones. The whole time the movie is looking through their eyes and seeing the Terminator Vision (TM), and they are scanning weapon wielding Tom Cruise, I kept thinking about the ED209 in Robocop and was waiting for the drone to growl "Drop your weapon" at Tom Cruise.

I worked through all of the ones that you have to beat without dying first, those weren't too bad. Then I did all the ones that require specific group compositions, those are easy you just have to purchase the correct characters (3 elf mages, etc) and level them up. Then after that I worked...

CH name is attog, ranking is 1377 at the moment. Mostly playing a 2 warrior/1 priest group or a 2 wizard/1 priest group.

Cardstock II is the end of beta. You can continue to grind the scenarios once per day for more gear and of course there is also multiplayer. Elven insight is incredibly overpowered in MP, assuming the other team isn't all elves. Leadership is also incredibly overpowered in MP, so Elves and...

Short term very true but soon enough you will have more gear than you know what to do with and it will become an issue of cherry picking the best stuff, having different themed builds, etc.

Provided it stays on them and they dont cycle it off, with it currently broken you are doing 18 damage over 3 turns and giving them 3 extra drawn cards.

The bug forum says that Unholy Energy is currently triggering for damage on every card in players hand, not just certain types. This will be fixed whenever the next build goes out. No wonder it is working out so well for you right now gogusrl.

I'm surprised that Unholy Energy is good, every time I consider it I get scared off that I am giving them extra card draw. I guess it could be good to use on a low health opponent though. Focused Healing is great, I tried out a 3 priest group loaded down with Impenetrable Nimbus and Focused...

Damn your lucky ass, I want that volcano staff!!! I've put a hundred hours + in and don't even have one item with Volcano on it. If any of you want to play some casual multiplayer some night to try out different builds send me a PM. I want to try out a 3 mage build that all use firestorms...

I dumped $75 into it to try and support these guys. I have no clue about the company but they have been at this forever with no seeming revenue coming in. The game seems amazingly polished to me. I played through the single player campaign and loved it, got into multiplayer and it is amazing...

So not to shit up this thread with more Cardhunter comparisons but I paid the $20 to try Scrolls today. It looks fun and I'm sure I'll be playing it to pass the time but it is not Cardhunter. When playing through the CH campaign it was one of those things where you start playing at 8pm and...

Wow I've seen plenty of movie violence but that last scene with Catelyn was BRUTAL. No way she is coming back from that one.

Man I think I need to read the books again as I don't remember any of that happening. Although it sounds awesome.

If you like this type of game then I highly recommend Cardhunter, beta sign ups are available, not sure when the game is coming out but it must be soon, and it is F2P. I played through the full campaign and it was the most fun I have had in a game in years. The art pays homage to classic AD&D...

I eventually changed tiers and settled at the Pro level, it would be nice to get the extra draft for a year but I don't really "feel burned" that they left us out. Pro tier was already so much better than all the other tiers, value-wise. Assuming the game lasts a few years that is.

KICKSTART THAT SHIT

Finally received my dev kit. Played it 30 minutes last night, started to get seasick/nauseous. I let my wife try it, she said she was ready to hurl after about 2 minutes.

I tried Might and Magic Duel of Champions last night, f2p digital ccg. It looks pretty good for a fix to hold me over until the Hex demo starts.

With all you guys pledging for $500 and up I may drop down to the pro tier. I originally went with the $500 so I could support everybody with the multiplayer extras that it comes with. I didn't know the higher tiers would be so popular here, they obviously are, so my pledge is looking redundant.

Yep. I don't know if these guys can make a decent video game but they sure as hell know how to make kickstarter reward tiers.

I've never had a reason to try it but can't you go in and pledge any amount, and as long as it is before the final deadline - cancel/change the amount?

Hardcore. And I thought I was crazy spending $500.

This looks like digital cocaine. I backed it at $500. If anybody else has the tier where you gift the 30 card packs and wants to trade them back and forth, that sounds good.

I played the shit out of the PC demo

I kickstarted.

I've played both, I think the AI is great. There is nothing worse than bad single player AI in these kinds of games. The Duels of the Planeswalkers is a good example, on the hardest AI setting it is difficult to ever lose to the computer. In Solforge it is easy to lose to the computer, to me...

I kickstarted this, and it is fun, but we'll have to see how they handle the single player and getting more cards. There is no way I'm going to be buying packs of virtual booster cards for $3 each. Also the timing might suck for them with Blizzard releasing what looks to be basically the same...

I got my email today that my Rift is shipping....and I'm out of town travelling for work all next week. FFFFUUUU. I had a VR session of Dactyl Nightmare in college in '93, which totally sucked balls, but I was a VR tech dreaming freak back then and I have been waiting for this thing for 20 years.

Holy Space Jesus how does this thread have 5 more pages than it did the last time I saw it?

Does anybody remember which episode it was when they found it? I think I must have missed an episode last season.

I think you mean you never saw anybody do so much with so little. Only reason he is still in the game though is because he is so damned dumb.

Constellation looks awesome, but I couldn't find it for Android. I took a look at Yatse but it was about a year ago I was putting the control scheme together and I think Yatse has come a long way since then. If I really cared to get hardcore into the control stuff I would pay the money and go...

That is a story my wife likes to tell people. We've been married 10 years, when we were dating she was talking about what she wanted in life...kids, good job, etc. She asked me what I wanted in life and I said "home theater." At first she thought I was joking.

It is a google nexus tablet running some apps to control stuff. One is called Touchsquid and that controls lighting and the receiver, another is the official xbmc remote, then there is some honeywell stuff for HVAC. I completely soundproofed the room so I can crank it up and not bother my wife...

I did the bar/popcorn thing too, but didn't get quite as crazy there:

Last year when we moved I made sure we bought a house with an unfinished basement. I'd always wanted a real home theater room and I wanted to do it all myself. I spent the last year working on it, framing, electric, insulation, everything.
