Absolutely awful...wow.

Start with Sopranos, Deadwood or Rome. These three shows do an excellent mix of episodic excitement, and long term story telling--as well as amazing acting and deep story lines. The big thing is though that you'll see dividends, in terms of story, in the first episode. The Wire, Breaking Bad...

Yeah, and that's fine--but as more information has come out, it seems like they are developing systems that all rely on leveling as the carrot. Every reward they can't think of something better for, is rest experience. And that currency becomes devalued quickly in this type of game--it just...

Yeah. They go on and on about rest experience, and "layered content" which offers experience rewards, and how the "path" system lets you play your way for experience....But they are still designing their game around the fact that experience is of limited usefulness. I mean, maybe I'm wrong, but...

Dude, your trolling is way, way too obvious...you frankly suck at it.

Coldhands, the undead guy who rides around on an Elk, is implied to be Benjen Stark (Or it might be the Thirteenth commander of the Night's Watch.)--he's draped in the black robes of the Night's Watch. Bran says "You're a monster" and Coldhands says "Your monster". Which could imply he knows of...

btw, if between weeks you want Boargia-light, there is a show on Netflix called Borgia-Faith and Fear. It's not a shitty B type knock off, it's a pretty damn high production value European version BUT it's all in English. Some of the aspects of it are laughably bad (Like how everyone has...

I have my own theory behind the Walkers. From what we know of Bran, the Children of the Forest are powerful magic users--the most powerful version of them are Greenseers. (One in a thousand would men might be wargs and one in a thousand wargs, greenseers). Now, in the books it's confirmed...

It wasn't just Mance, you perfectly described a scene from the book that was NOT in the show. I'll explain it in the spoiler thread if you want.

Christ, you literally said "that's not how it was described in the books" in one post. Do you have a split personality or something?

Terrible idea. You know what usually happens? Usually those arm chair dev derails are the only thing that keeps thread discussion going for the weeks between new info on games. I always find it hysterical how a thread dies for weeks, and then three or four people start to get into an arm chair...

lol, I know how much you hate them, that sounded more confrontational than I wanted it to (Late, and I'm typing bad, heh). I was just pointing the above out because I see a lot of hate for Monsanto, and I figured I would highlight how EA's actions have been lock step with Monsanto's for quite a...

You guys all realize EA supported Monsanto in it's case through briefs filed by ESA right? In fact, ESA and Monsanto's goals have been aligned for a while, the precedence they both have been setting over patent and copyright law has been helping each other. EA is a pretty fucking vile...

Was this class in a foreign school? If so, the people you were with were the children of very important people. Obviously though your anecdotal evidence based on a group of outliers is probably right and the actual statistical data showing a height difference between north and south (Between 1.5...

With the way they are saying 1% unemployment ect, (And frankly the name "purge") they will probably just explain it as a State of Nature/survival of the fittest. The weak were killed long ago in previous purges. Banks who could be robbed, long ago collapsed because they were brought down on...

This, old race horses break their legs very, very easy. And they can't heal, so they are euthanized. Luck was great for all the horses involved, because most of them would have been euthanized without being used there and being there they were treated like fucking kings. Once again, PETA being...

He's right, this is an old school "liberal" (Liberal in the economic sense--as in capitalist) dogma. The more people have, the better customers they are. The best way to get more for yourself, if you own a lot, isn't to take another person's portion, because eventually you'll run out (Which is...

I know he was portrayed a bit younger in the books, It's like he has problems understanding the whole concept.

haha, Tuco--what did the Nostrodouche post in the non-spoiler thread that got him RRd?

First four seasons of West Wing are better than those two, imo. If you watch Spartacus though, muscle through the first and second episode, they are pretty bad (First episode is actually horrible.) After that it gets better. Gods of the Arena, the "prequal" was, in my opinion, the best season.

HBOGO has the whole series.

Fuck Saul spin off. Gustavo rise to power prequel!

Did they explain why they don't absorb the small electrical bursts in our nervous system?

Exactly, this is the whole advertising="being okay"=happiness theme. Don knew Roger was cheating on his family forever (With Joan), it was only when the cheating threatened to break the illusion of normalcy, when it threatened everyone's comfort (Most notably Roger's OWN comfort), that it became...

What does Bert do around the office all day? Nothing. Bert didn't even have an office in the building...and who was asked to give up his office last season? Roger. Was Pete just randomly being a dick to him? No, it's because Roger doesn't do anything, he is literally just becoming financial...

Yeah, I really like that the most, they show how the philosophical undertones of the show works on each segment of life. I mean, we saw Bert Cooper had an affair with the dead secretary ect. So they have all taken the same path, the only difference between them is the kinds of masks they have...

I think this entire show has been about two things. The first is obviously how identity is superficial (And so are any changes to it) and it's actually a construct ofother people, and not yourself. We get smacked with it all the time, "Who is Don Draper?" (So the only person who can answer that...

I think this Betty is just more comfortable than the one with Don. Betty has always shown signs of being a little disturbed. They threw a lot of subtle symbolism at us that she might have been abused by her father...and I think that has given rise to both her sexual fetishes and...

This is actually part of the original tales about the character, which the show is based on.

He not only knew it was the Boltons, which was *never* said (They wore no banners, no symbols, nothing). He ALSO knew, somehow, that Ramsay Bolton was posing as a janitor just to fool Theon. Either way, he's going to lay low now, probably, because he's reading this I bet.

No, this is a little to on the nose to be a random prediction. How would he know the guy helping Theon wasn't really sent by his sister? I mean, maybe I wasn't looking because I'm not trying to read into the show too much, but it didn't seem like they telegraphed that the janitor was actually...

I think he just missed putting an "even" in there--so as to say "even better than season 5". I personally thought Season 5 was their best yet.

He's a great bad guy all around, amazing in Green Mile.

The thing about market research is you have the be very careful in understanding their methodology and nomenclature. Newzoo takes into account a lot of games we wouldnotcall MMOs, as MMOs. Like for example,League of Legends is considered an MMO in this report.In fact League of Legends is the...

What was said before was said by him, the quotation on this board only puts things in italics unless you pull it from the reply with quote button (Which I edited in later)

No, I heard this. Now, imagine the Cell Phone market if some guy had stomped his foot down and said "Cell phones should only be about calling other people! RARW!"--yeah, that guy would have lost out on a hundred BILLION dollar expansion in the market that came from combining "Apps" with phones...

MMO market is rapidly shrinking--so your opinion is that the direction is headed should remain unchanged? I never quite got that about people like you, you're so confident about a market that's been on the decline since these things were added. From the looks of it (From an investor point of...

I've heard it's not very good, but from what I know--and I might be wrong--they don't really design around making their community content more attractive than instanced content in terms of rewards. Plopping non-instanced content into a gamewithoutany thought on how to populate it will be a...

Scorched earth doesn't care about innocent bystanders, Tuco. Everything burns.

It's not one or the other--you could simply have it be an extremely low drop chance. Imagine if in a particular tier 1 raid, you had 2 versions. Instance and Community (You pick at the start of the dungeon). In the instance version, the bosses all dropped, lets say, "Tier .5 loot" (So Tier 2...
