    RIP Visceral Games

    Capitalism is destroying games already. See the lootbox threads. It's really a race now to see whether capitalism or SJWs can destroy games first.

    I hope Anthem is awesome. Why do people just root for studios to fail, then complain about how there's no good games?

    RIP Visceral Games

    From the blurb in the press release: Sounds more like Star Wars: Andromeda to me. If they actually made a Star Wars Destiny clone that could be fantastic by comparison.

    It's almost 100% the PSU. It's always the PSU when we're talking about those dual 8-pin flagship graphics cards.

    Weird coincidence, I'm pretty sure this is what all my friends did to me.

    Whats rustling your jimmies?

    I made my computer super silent. Now I can work in absolute peace. Except now the sound of my refrigerator on the other side of the house is driving me fucking crazy.

    I don't own a smartphone. I was going to get a Pixel 2 XL but I might just get a Moto G5S Plus instead.

    Star Wars Battlefront II

    There's a whole section of multiplayer that's just space battles, and they seem great.

    Infantry combat is kinda poop? But holy crap the starfighter mode is way better than last time.

    Did they get rid of the jetpacks? Oh they're for the special troopers only.

    FOH, I have a confession to make. For over 4 years, my 4770k had a stock cooler, because I was too lazy to install the spare 212 Evo on a shelf 2 feet away from my computer. After 4 years of procrastinating, I actually installed it, because I was rebuilding the rest of the case and replacing...

    X-Com-alike pen and paper game?

    There might be some investigative-style adventures, so it would need to be a system with some support for non-combat skills, but mainly it would be more in the military science fiction genre. It would not be of the horror/paranormal/lovecraftian weird sci-fi genre, though now that we mention...

    I'd be keeping my 1080 for the time being anyway. I don't see myself holding out to Q2 2018 without pulling the trigger on a new PC but we'll see. If Intel wants to crush AMD, why don't they just build a Coffee Lake variant with a bunch of eDRAM? Maybe some fucking solder?!?!

    It's awesome, but I can't get hangouts notifications to work very well with it. Not sure what to do.

    Yeah, still not sure if I will get an 8700k to replace my 4770k. I doubt the improvement would be that great.

    Where's the patch notes? EDIT: Oh shit they finally stole the SW:Battlefront jump jets like I suggested a year ago. Time to play this game again.

    X-Com-alike pen and paper game?

    D20-based games are the only games I've ever known how to run so Starfinder is probably the most worth looking at. Almost everything will have to be custom anyway so it's really just picking a starting point.

    It's going to be the best gaming CPU available, by a large margin, for at least for a year or so.

    Yeah but can you copy files from your native file system that way? I need to put a lot of things. Put put put.

    X-Com-alike pen and paper game?

    I didn't even know Starfinder was a thing. I mean, I know no space RPG will ever beat The World of Synnibarr, but I should at least peruse its contents.

    X-Com-alike pen and paper game?

    Playing yourself seems like a fun trope for a one-shot but this wouldn't be a one-shot campaign which makes me think I shouldn't go that route.

    X-Com-alike pen and paper game?

    Anyone ever try to run an aliens-attack-earth style pen and paper RPG? I've been thinking of trying to run a sort of X-Com-meets-Independence Day style RPG. I've got a pretty good campaign plot mapped out but not much in the way of systems. I was thinking it could be d20-based since I figure...

    They're fine, bottlenecked but not in a way that's super meaningful. I wouldn't throw away a perfectly good working high capacity SATA SSD, they make an excellent 'Steam Drive' although I've sold off all my 256gb or less ones.
