    Did they decide/announce whether you can enter the EK once you enter a campaign? My perception/assumption is that you can't. You sit in the EK between campaigns, and once you enter the campaign that's it. That's how I'd prefer it anyway.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I predict Jorah dies a heroes death in the pits protecting Daenarys. Maybe it's just naive hope to think he'll meet a good end. Maybe he'll just roll up uninvited and Drogon lands on him, lol.

    Fallout 4

    I wouldn't worry about this, though I'm sure Todd Howard will be inundated with questions about it. Hopefully he anticipates that enough to give the real answer of, "FO4 will be as open, or even more open than FO3 and Skyrim. We'll work with the Steam Workshop for our mods, but won't require you...

    Fallout 4

    Because while modders can do some things, and I very much enjoyed their efforts, they can't make it a survival horror game with the same level of breadth as the game makers can. FONV was a good example, there was so much shit everywhere that having sparse amounts goods was impossible. The...

    Fallout 4

    I'd love it if you're an android that was alive during the great war and was taken offline until they open the vault. It'd make it be the first interesting character you play in the FO franchise, lol.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I wouldn't be surprised if they skip a huge part of the expected plot line we have. My expectation was that Daenarys would ride Drogon, meet up with the Khalasar, then ride and retake Slaver's Bay, then make a beeline for Westeros. She could just get scooped by Drogon, light a bunch of fools on...

    It's funny that Tyrion finally meets her and in the next couple episodes everything will go to shit and she flies off without him. I wonder if he's going to be stuck holding the shit bag that is their city, like he did with King's Landing.

    Fallout 4

    I'm neither disappointed nor super hyped because of the trailer. The one question I have for FO4 is, "How are you going to make this experience build on and stand apart from FO3/FONV?". They had an answer for that for Oblivion (Gates, combat system, seamless world, character customization) and...

    Moved this post to the spoiler thread. If you're watching a show known for shocking its audience and you say, "I know more about the show than you, there's no more known shocks in the show." to people trying to not be spoiled, what exactly are you thinking? Shit like this is why I have to...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I get the feeling that Tyrion would tell Daenarys about any communication he has with Varys. Tyrion is, "This is what I'm offering. Kill me or accept me I don't give a shit." His line of, "The one thing that I have to live for now is to serve the person who decides if I live or die." was...

    ok. Let me restate my assumptions about the paradox and you can point out which ones you feel are bullshit: 1. Once mankind got to the point of starting our tech tree some 6-10 thousand years ago we've advanced dramatically to where we are now. 2. Any pace that keeps up with our current one...

    The Night King watched Jon Snow et all sit in the water and not row away because that's how the writers wanted it to be. A chilling scene where Jon Snow and the viewers realize the intelligence behind the eyes of the Night King, his intrigue in Jon Snow and the overall futility of fighting the...

    If you think any of those three games were mediocre I guess we'll have to agree to disagree.

    Oh come on. In terms of consistency of excellence BGS is one of the best game studios in the world. In the last ten years of games they've developed Oblivion, Fallout 3 and Skyrim.

    Because they're just a macguffin that is thrown around when needed rather than being a coherent and predictable element of the universe. If the maesters just had a book with a catalog of 300 of them in Westeros it'd make them lose their mystery. LF just happening to have some valyrian dagger...

    Yep, these are all big problems that have no easy solutions. A lot of my unit tests verify mathematical algorithms and some rely on so many mathematical operations that performing the math by hand is infeasible. So I verify qualitatively that the algorithm is working, then set some typical...

    She had a good bit and filled the gap of intelligence for the wildlings after Mance died. I mean when you're next to Tormund, Rattleshirt, WunWun and a Thenn it's easy to be a leader the audience can identify with. And she's only hot if you like strong, tough women. Shitlords like yourself need...

    I like doing unit testing for test driven development and write tons of it. I like TDD because instead of deleting your shitty temporary testing harness you use to run your new code you end up with a suite of tests that not only help future validation but also document and demonstrate how your...

    FO4 is almost a sure thing. Bethesda rented out some huge theatre for their E3 thing. I don't even know what other games to look forward to, but in general I'm hoping for some new VR titles.

    I dont think you understand the problem. The article describes it very well but the paradox isnt that we dont see other civs like ours. It is that we dont see any civs much beyond our tech tree.

    To be the best you have to beat the best. Jon Snow has to fight in real tournaments to be ranked. His kill list is impressive but he has plot armor and a lot of his kills, including the WhiteWalker were sort incidental.

    Wow, being able to snipe the gatehouse out of cannon range is a really bad defensive design. We have the gatehouse protected almost as well as the lodestone. I actually think our castle is the best protected castle I've seen. I've for you to take a trip to Kyrios to check it out sometime.

    There's also a very sparse catalog of the Valyrian steel blades, both in terms of what, say, the Maesters know and in what is exposed to the reader. Allegedly there are thousands of them and hundreds in Westeros, but they are exposed to the reader only when it's relevant. Valyrian steel - A...

    lol A few ideas on Ramsay: 1. He takes Reek with him because lulz, Reek gets captured and then helps Stannis the Mannis in some way like the books. 2. He lights their encampment on fire. Melisandre finds some way to leverage to burn Shireen. 3. With Ramsay being away, Sansa plots...
