Who wants to live in a world where sheep and wolves look the same? If you don't want to be eaten like a sheep, become a wolf. Homo homini lupus

Watched it with my dad too. During the intro he always had me try and pick out the place in the stars where the Enterprise would come flying out before it happened. Spock always kind of reminded me of my dad. He was a rock of stability, strength, and wisdom among the crew. You always got...

It will not feel like a Blade Runner sequel without Vangelis (or someone just as good). edit: Like any great movie, a happenstance perfect storm of things came together to make it happen. You had Scott who had just directed Alien; Vangelis, who had just scored Chariots of Fire; and Ford, who...

Vanguard was built like some kind of wacky museum. Elements of the game were groundbreaking (offensive/defensive targets, class design, diplomacy) but those elements were set in a framework that vacillated between haphazard and outright broken. It's like the museum had some amazing exhibits...

From 2005-2007 we had the "why Vanguard will suck" and, alternatively, the "why Vanguard will be the second coming" thread that never left the front page of fohguild for those years. Starting in 2007 we had the "why Vanguard DOES suck" and, alternatively, the "what Vanguard needs to do to not...

I don't know what you guys find so objectionable about this. Of all the kinds of gold, I've always thought that false gold was the worst...

Ok here's an example: My guild and your guild get into a skirmish over territory. It starts small, but soon escalates into a large-scale conflict involving most of the members from both guilds. I'm running around the edges of the fray, sniping at opponents on the outside (I'm a caster and...

PVP in a game like this should be heavy on the two R's- Reputation and Rivalry. Knowing the identity of your assailant/target/victim is imperative. Nameplates make knowing the identity of your assailant/target/victim easy.

No nameplates, no backing from me.

They are saving a lot. They are taking a pretty smart approach to the KS. Don't show your hand all at once, keep goals low and increase in slow increments.

So basically, status quo hasn't changed.

I'd be fine as long as nameplates were visible within killing range. If they are too far to even read, who cares?

I don't know what kind of wars you've been fighting... Seriously though, their reasoning is bogus. I'm all for realism, but trying to excuse anonymity in pvp by drawing real life comparisons to war is bullshit. This is a competitivegame. Not knowing who your opponents are does nothing but...

What you need for a successful reset server is two servers. Run server 1 until progression run is completed, open server 2 and restart a fresh progression server. When server 2 has run its course, migrate the player base to server 1, then reset server 2 as a fresh progression server. You can...

If you guys think that the cash shop won't providesomeway for people to spend real world $$$ to getsomeform of in-game advantage, you're fooling yourselves. The path between real world dollars and in-game advantage may be obfuscated by a series of go-betweens (like trading things for other...

A very low one. The real question you want to ask is if there is a chance that Pantheon becomes an actual game worth playing. The chances of that are pretty low for any attempt at an mmo.

I won't argue with that. Doesn't seem like much effort was put into those, does it?

The art hasn't been bad. Not particularly amazing- but I don't really care about concept art (in relation to the final product of the game). Agree about the writing. They need help. The names they are coming up with are pretty cringe-worthy. edit: I find that names are one of the most...

Change buying assets to making assets and Pantheon is in the same position as Crowfall.

Looked better than expected. Color me completely indifferent to where they get the assets they use. As long as the game is entertaining, I don't care if they bought their assets, stole them, or made them themselves. However they got their assets, they blended pretty well in that vid, tbh...

I spend a little less than $120 a week in food. $120 a month is roughly $4 per day. You either live in a place where the U.S. dollar goes a lot further than it does in the U.S., or you probably need to recalculate.

That's disappointing. And it goes against creator guy's tenant of total transparency. Oh well, these tech startup guys always start out with such grand ideas, but the realities of "business" soon set in. (Still going to try it).

I thought about that too, but then I thought- how many times do you really see the process by which your food gets made? I'm willing to be way worse stuff happens in the harvesting/processing/shipping/retail cycle for food we eat all the time. Also, I don't know if you watched the entire...

After listening to interviews with the creator of Soylent, I am a little less enthusiastic about trying it. He seems a little... off his rocker. He admittedly has pretty much no background in health or nutrition. He's basically a computer guy who decided he thought eating was barbaric so he...

About to be locked into work shit for the next few hours and don't have time to make an account and ask- someone please ask about cash shops for the love of god. I doubt they will go into payment details this early, but if they do I can actually scratch off this game or put it at the top of my...

This is pretty much exactly my intent. I like eating as much as anyone, but most of the time I want to be able to make worrying about food way lower on my priority list than it is now. Then splurge when I have the time and inclination. It seems like making your own would be as much (or...

*edit*- What I meant is that the conflict is inevitable. I wasn't clear, my fault. The conflict of interest is that the people who run the game have to constantly fight a battle between limiting cash shop items to "aesthetic" items and making less money, or selling "gameplay impacting" items...

It's not just fair, it's inevitable. It's also the reason the cash shop idea is flawed at its root. The conflict of interest it creates is unavoidable and terminal to the integrity of the game.

The name thing is kind of strange. Seems like terrible marketing to me, considering what soylent green turned out to be. I also agree that eating is one of life's great pleasures, but it's also one of life's great pain in the asses. The process of going to the store, finding the items you...

Soylent - Free Your Body Want to try it. Anyone have any experience with it? I love the idea of perfectly balanced nutrition coming so easily. The time, effort, mess this would save seems pretty badass. I think I would still have a real dinner most nights and use this every bfast and...

Haha fair enough then. That's an honest assessment. Have at it.

I hate cartoony. That's not too cartoony. That said, you guys need to temper your expectations. How long have we been doing this? The better an mmo sounds, the less likely it is to succeed in getting made the way it's described. Not sure why you guys think this will be different. I wish...

Most of that applies to me, actually. Add to it that I tend to play PC games that require a ton of setup/decision-making and I'm kind of sick of it. Frankly, I just want to pick up a controller and shoot shit/ hack shit/ jump right in, without having to micromanage everything. Not saying I...

You guys are going to convince me to stay a PC gamer

Would like to get back into console gaming after a long absence and need some advice from the Rerolled bros: 1. PS4 or Xbone? I know this is a loaded question that could turn into a never ending debate. Don't want that. All I want is a simple explanation as to why you think one is better...

Yikes. Their writing just keeps getting better and better. That first paragraph/sentence would make William Faulkner cringe

Wow. Thanks for that. MOBA : The Collection MOBA needs a writing section and that "introduction" needs to be a featured piece. Also, I totally recommend scrolling through the MOBA collection and reading the descriptions. Some of the work is nothing short of breathtaking.

Wait, where did you find this? I checked on the keepers site and didn't see it. Link?

I hope "More FAQ" includes cash shop/sub info. I doubt it though. Monetary strategies seem to be some of the last things mmos disclose.

I duoed Xalgoz with my 50 chanter and a 50 druid buddy. It's a little bit of a challenge, but it's fun. Invis down to him, clear a field around him, pull him with charm. I charmed him and sent him against other mobs instead of the other way around. It's a good thing too- he tears through the...
