    DOTA 2

    Here's my breakdown for all time heroes played. Like I said, I always play support. Don't even have a carry in the top 10. CM = 61 percent win, highest # of plays. Rubick = 58% Necro = 54% KOTL = 52% Venge (support most of the time) = 41% Lich = 57% Undying = 61% (I had a 10 game...

    DOTA 2

    I've been playing about a year now. I started out from my first 10 games at like 2500 MMR. Hovered around 3200 a while, then went up to 3700. I was at 3700 just a few months after starting. Never playing anything but support. I had multiple 9 and 10 game winning streaks as support. Never...

    DOTA 2

    I started playing this again recently. I was at one point 3700 MMR. I am now 2500. Don't really care per se, other than the fact my teams seem to be getting dumber, which makes playing less fun and more aggravating. I think the problem is I only play support, so no matter how good I am I...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    The giant arrow knocking the guy up in the air was like a gag out of a slapstick comedy.

    The Wolf Among Us

    Yep, I was going to say the same thing yesterday when I played it. Nothing all that compelling, no hard choices, and it seemed fairly short to boot. Hopefully it wraps up nicely.

    Watch Dogs

    Agreed. In the few hours I bothered playing it, bugs were never my issue. The game is just BORING. Can they really not come up with better than the utterly and totally wooden characters and lame, cliched plot? The hacking is shit, interactions with the environment and people are lame, AI...

    Smite

    Some of the gods are rather amusing...dunno if it's just because I'm new and in a low MMR or something, but I'm getting a lot of like, 18 and 1, 19 and 3 games, and I'm completely new so it's not like I'm greatly skilled or anything. I notice I'm playing against a lot of people with the "stock"...

    Smite

    This game is ridiculously fun. I played it for like 45 minutes for the first time and then bought the $30 god pack thing. Never even heard of it until someone bumped this thread.

    Watch Dogs

    I noticed the same thing, it made no sense. It's also the first time you realize you can't hide from the police even if they don't actually see you run around eight corners and then hide in a back yard.

    Watch Dogs

    I played it for another couple of hours and did some more main storyline missions. Yeah, it never becomes more interesting. The cops are just annoying as fuck, the characters are wooden as fuck, the story is old and tired. "Hacking" is lame, the side missions aren't fun, none of it is...

    Watch Dogs

    I'll give it some more time, but after just jacking around for a couple of hours this isn't particularly interesting to me. Cliched revenge plot, stereotypical characters, the "hacking" isn't that exciting (so far.) Again, admittedly I haven't played it much yet, so my opinion may change...

    Killing Floor 2

    Nice! I had fun with KF, especially on modded servers with 20+ players where you could level up beyond the original game and get bonuses. Incidentally, I've always wanted a multiplayer FPS game that revolved around building defensive positions, except more complex than that KF is (i.e...

    DOTA 2

    Roshan kill with a mud golem and Aghs lich ult. It'd probably never happen in a game, but funny. It'd be amusing to be teamfighting with the entire two teams visible then see "RADIANT HAS KILLED ROSHAN!"

    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    Finally, someone gets it. Sometimes it's best to let someone else "win," especially if you cared about them. If I damaged her in some way, and my apology eased her pain in any way, it's fine. She "wins." I lose nothing. Like you said, apologies AND forgiving someone is for you and the other...

    Exactly. Like why else would I have played it any differently? I wasn't trying to get back with her.

    That'd be great if I were still trying to get back with her. She contacted me out of the clear blue AGAIN, a month after my last contact with her. That's twice now I've ignored her, and twice she's tried to contact me again. This latest contact was just last week. I didn't respond. Let...

    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    I'm sure you've learned a lot from reading PUA PDFs, but you completely missed the point. "Acting like a man" doesn't mean never apologizing. Secondly, the relationship was already over...I had nothing to lose by apologizing for nasty things I said. What "beginning of the end" are you talking...

    The Girls Who Broke Your Heart Thread

    Yeah, there's big potential for circular weirdness there. I don't intend to contact her again any way you slice it. Regarding apologies: I disagree with this part. There's nothing wrong with it, it's a human thing. As fucked up as breaking up with someone by e-mail is (like 10 sentences...

    DRAMA! So...if anyone remembers my story from Feburary about the woman who broke up with me by e-mail after a long relationship. Well, anyway, I'm 100 percent better, not an issue, I just got a recent e-mail that was weird. Rerolled Long story short: I was (rightfully) quite annoyed by...

    Seriously? You're aware self-study of language is a huge thing, right? I've got a dozen books. It's all drilling, drilling, drilling. I use Assimil and Quizlet (electronic flashcard site.) Tons of lessons on there. I watch French movies, I listen to French music. Great forum here for...

    Falling out of love with gaming

    I play tennis at the park, walk/run in the woods, and sit in the sun for a while. I shifted from doing all my cardio at the gym to the park. It's much more fun and relaxing. I just bought a new Babolat racquet not long ago. Won two games last night, 6-2 and 6-3, back to back against two...

    Falling out of love with gaming

    Thread bump: Just uninstalled every game on my computer, which I've done in the past. Uninstalled Steam, everything. I think I left everything off for like 5 months last year (or was it 2012? I can't remember) from about January to May or June, then started creeping back playing this or...

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    Yes, yet some others still seem to be more fun for whatever reasons I can't necessarily articulate. I will say not my most favorite game genre, though, for sure, for that reason. D2 seemed to be more "fun" for whatever reason, for example.

    Ha, me too. I almost bought the expansion. Glad I didn't, because I know I'd get bored quickly after hitting 70.

    Diablo 3 - Reaper of Souls

    I was a quitter of this game 2 or 3 weeks after it came out, like many. I just came back and reinstalled for the first time since then after reading this thread and seeing it mentioned elsewhere how things have improved. I'm bored already. I have a 60 WH who I got a couple of legendary...

    DOTA 2

    I just managed to get sniper, take aim, nethertoxin, and walrus punch. Can't believe that much stuff was left up, and I was like 7th down the line for my first pick. We won, I was 15 and 3. I rarely get lucky enough (nor am I smart enough) to build good carries, always play support. The...

    Thanks for the words. It's an interesting read. I'll give you some more breakdown on this chick without getting into a ton of specifics. She was really special to me because she was European from a country I really love, I know some of the language...it was so unique finding her here...

    The breakup was in December. I was talking about marriage with her in that thread early last year. It's been over two months, and yeah, it still fucking sucks. I just can't let it bother me anymore. No fucking closure...not a chance to talk, ask questions, nothing. Completely ignored...

    I'm dealing with a semi-recent breakup. The girl mentioned this thread from March of last year: Marriage and The Power of Divorce - Page 4 Long term relationship. Talked about getting married. Literally never argued in person...occasional quibbles, never a real argument. She broke up...

    DOTA 2

    This is probably redundant and obvious and doesn't really matter anyway since it's AD, but regarding ability draft...I've found if I'm the one to start taking stuns and disables from the getgo (i.e. Tombstone, sven stun, WD stun, etc.) I win the majority of games. Which would be boring if you...

    Goat Simulator

    I enjoy the fact this exists, but it looks like it'd be fun for all of 20 minutes before the novelty wore off. It just looks like a lame mod for some engine (source?) that should have been released for free as a gag, not sold for $10.

    DOTA 2

    After playing ability draft quite a few times now, yeah, it's fun, but...it starts to wear on me. The games are almost always incredibly lopsided. One team has one or two guys who buttfuck the other team, and it's always like that it seems. Never a fair game, it's always like 60 kills to...
