    Dark Souls 3

    I preferred the methodical combat in DS2 a lot more. All anyone did in DS1 was either hoplite style or katana bleed sploit. Every weapon type had a viable option and use in DS2, both SP and MP. BB was a good game, but I would stop playing souls games if they patterned them after that game.

    Fallout 4

    They are also going to have to restructure a lot of the perks to reflect the new mode. Some stuff, like the strongback top level, is pretty obviously useless (in already useless stat trees) and I wonder if the corpse eater perk will adversely affect health, among other things. If you scrap the...

    Dark Souls 3

    I am not sure if their system of blocks and parries can work well without being tied in like that, though. I mean, compare this game series to anything in the shooter genre and its a lot more complex, even without MP interaction in the mix.

    Dark Souls 3

    I guess I don't understand what you are arguing here. Was the prior DS locket at 60 on PC and the new one is locked at 30?

    Dark Souls 3

    So your saying that the 30FPS guy either can't play or magically gets 60FPS? Or maybe the 60FPS guy gets throttled back to 30 (which if you played both the PS3 and PS4 versions, you would know generated entirely different gameplay experiences in Dark Souls 2) for the encounter? Basically they...

    In all honestly, a prettied up Moo2 with some tweaks that worked on tablets would have sold shitloads. The tablet market has dogshit for 4x game options right now.

    Fallout 4

    That no fast travel thing sounds cool until you get the "Spectacle Island is under attack" message while you are off doing shit in the Glowing Sea. Basically, forget about doing the MM ending and any settlement building in general while playing at the new Survival.

    Dark Souls 3

    Yeah but if one guy is rocking 60fps on his PC and some other guy with an old system is only able to eek out 30FPS because he won't drop money to upgrade (and we all know that is the bulk of the people out there) what do you think happens?

    Dark Souls 3

    PvP basically. If one guy is running 30fps and another 60fps it causes all sorts of odd interactions.

    Master of Orion

    Tad, you and Gav are the only ones in this thread advocating for the change. The fact that they are making a big PR push on this front should tell you a lot. For most people who the Moo IP matters to, updating the graphics, adding some extra wrinkles, and tidying up the interface are exactly...

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Hell, DC has done character overload before. It started with Batman Forever and turned the dials up to 11 with Batman and Robin. The first was passible, mainly due to Carrey making a serviceable Riddler. The latter makes Adam West Batman look like masterpiece theatre.

    Master of Orion

    That was actually my assumption as well. And I outlined what I would expect from a successful continuation of the franchise. Look at what they did from Moo1 to Moo2 and extrapolate from there. Moo3 should be completely ignored as if it never existed, similar to the SW prequels.

    Yeah being called a scared old man by a guy who won't leave his own house is not exactly burn material, especially when Sean-lite is the only guy in the thread agreeing with you.

    Jesus Tad, I would have figured that the whole Malaysian airlines fiasco might have tempered your zealotry a bit, but I guess not. Have fun getting out microed by Koreans and stutter pausing your way through single player, I guess. Only an ADD person finds that more enjoyable than considering...

    Yeah guilty pleasure for sure, being bolstered by the main ?protagonist's acting. I am enjoying it a lot for what it is.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    I have to hand it to you guys. You are putting an amazing amount of effort into making this thread even worse than it was when it was just Lyrical masturbating to Batman for 30 pages. I still think the movie is going to be worse than this thread, though.

    Years of being a shut in and living like a mushroom will result in soft skin.

    Master of Orion

    That tactic only works at lower difficulties and even then the Darlocks have to not exist. Besides, taking telepathic and making empty ships large enough to qualify for the mind control takeover was a far bigger exploit in the early game. Anyhow, my point stands. RTS battles are a mistake...

    Moo2 already did that per population shit in the planetary display. I know this because I actually played a game of it this weekend. It also had custom races, custom designed ships, no star lanes, and actual working AI. Things even that abortion Moo3 had. Did you even play Moo2?

    Master of Orion

    1) Auto on inconsequential fights that one side is sure to win? Of course. Balanced fights where tactics matter? Not a chance. No one is arguing that, Sir Strawman. 2) How about every game in the series (including that abortion Moo3) used turn based only because that is how 4x plays...

    Master of Orion

    So basically, pause every other second because the allied AI is retarded kind of like Baldur's Gate or PoE? Yeah, no thanks. I will just keep playing Moo2, instead.

    Master of Orion

    If the timed turn shit is for MP only, fine. If they let the Russian MP desires for this title pollute the single player experience, then we can add this to the long list of Putin's war crimes. And seriously, fuck the RTS in battles too. You basically kill anything resembling a swarm fleet...

    Master of Orion

    Any degree of RTS will put this into sub MOO3 shit levels. This is not a genre for RTS elements. It is 4x and people love it because you don't have to be a Korean mainlining redbull to micromanage your army, like StarCraft. Also, fuck MP emphasis (aka we are too lazy to program a good AI...

    Ok, putting hyperbole aside for a moment, how much leeway is granted on enforcement of these things in Canada? Can their equivalent of the executive choose not to aggressively pursue the enforcement of certain laws, like how Obama dialed back the pot law enforcement?

    Mist Mostly Mightily Blames Other People or MMMBOP for short.

    FW, you know better than anyone that women are never happy with the hand they are dealt. My wife has giant tits and bitches about them constantly, meanwhile her friend who has Mist like Skeeter bite tits complains just as much. And yet another friend with average sized funbags also complains...

    Will the courts of Cuckada even care at this point? The fact that some dude almost went to jail for mildly disagreeing on twitter with some psycho cunt he didn't even fuck suggests this is not the case.

    Mist Mostly Mightily Blames Other People or MMMBOP for short.

    Better than being bitch tits Bob. Trust me, as a fat man I had to work hard to make sure I marred someone with a bigger rack than myself. Also, Mist clearly just loves being miserable and bitching about it, hence her complete disregard for the numerous well intentioned suggestions he/she/it...

    Dr. Mario's Retard Rehabilitation Program

    On the one hand, everything Hodj said up to his Rickshawing was demonstrably correct. On the other hand, I think the cheap shot he took at Tarrant was a bridge too far. This especially true when you consider how many ways one can make fun of Tarrant without citing his current life situation...

    Maybe she can get one of those Mexicans she is getting drilled by to pick up the house for her.

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Should we quote the last 900 pages of this thread? Women are merciless and malicious during breakups. If she had time to plan, it means she has a head start in a situation where the deck was already going to be stacked in her favor. Also, what Hoss said.

    ^This. Pretty much the sole reason I frequent this thread is to make me appreciate my wife more. I cannot even imagine how tough Tarrant has it right now. Then you have assholes like wormie who just trash everything because they want to stick their dick in the newer younger model, too...

    Deadpool (2016)

    Colossus was basically playing the part of Captain America here, the moral compass straight man. He was the weakest link by design. Angel Dust was probably the least well executed part of the movie, but she was a last minute budget rewrite and there to give the viewer some action at the end...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Sure you realize this, but it bears repeating. This is part of the whole "appear sane" routine, as well. Actually wanting to be happy and in a healthy relationship was not enough for her to conquer her crazy. But you can bet your ass that fucking you over as hard as possible for a bunch of...

    Marriage and the Power of Divorce

    Well you have to pick your compromise. My wife is chunky, but she is not a hagbeast. Looks are going to go, so I went for the brains and attitude instead. If looks land at the top of your priority list, you probably are not going to make it in a LTR anyhow. I am not saying marry Shelly, I am...

    Elope and blow the money on the reception party. That's what my wife and I did and we saved everyone a lot of hassle and money. Plus, our receptions (had one in CA and one in WI) were a lot more memorable than any of the poofta weddings I have been/sung at over the years. No one remembers the...

    a_skeleton_03 is the same guy who snagged nudies off of his wife's friend's HD because he felt entitled to do so (/implication.jpg) and traded Vicodin for nudes from the Meagan Fox of Ohio. I am not terribly worried about any relationship advice he might have because I am fairly certain he has...
