    Cities: Skylines

    not just a poop powered city, be apparently a poop perpetual motion machine.

    Cities: Skylines

    yeah, one thing I keep seeing pop up is "just bulldoze it". This is a bit of another reason the cities end up looking so artificial. In reality, terraforming is super expensive and usually not feasible. You tend to have unlimited funds and power in these games. In reality, you need to...

    Guild Wars 2

    ps, there is also totally a puzzle in that cave too. To get in the cave in the first place, you pick up a boulder, and throw it at a gong on the wall. then theres the vetern hylek you can kill or run by. at the end of the cave, there is a giant face, with orbs on the ground, and some rocks...

    Guild Wars 2

    yeah. People have gotten so used to following ! around, when presented with a game that doesn't follow that, they latch on to the closest thing to it, and can't let go. Same thing has come up over and over since day 1. The Dynamic events are the "core" questing system. And those start in a...

    Guild Wars 2

    god damn, doing the living story achievements. wow some of these are intense. Just spent like 2 hours trying to do "don't knock yourself out"

    Cities: Skylines

    Dubai. Las Vegas 40 years ago. Thats the problem with these city sims. as you can see. tight cities with giant tracks of grass/trees around it. Cities generally grow from natural progression of age old towns merging together. IF you want natural cities, you need to have a timeline sim...

    Neverwinter: PC

    NW has some decent dungeons. but it also suffers from the 5 side paths, but only one matters for loot chest, etc. so all the side stuff no one ever does. most people probably dont even know there ARE sidebosses in Neverwinter. Or hidden rooms/chests.

    Star Wars Rebels

    not really. its as you say. killing a couple kids, we dont know off screen, in his "falling" point, vs killing a well liked main character later, when visible as Vader shortly before his redemption is much different. It would definitely put Vader back into that "fuck that guy" category.

    many Bothans (and one Togruta) died to bring us this information.

    Guild Wars 2

    ascended gear. min/maxing and learning the "proper" class combos. Thats the point. you have to play specific professions and builds to speed run. not just op builds, but builds that are op in conjunction with other professions builds. Also do keep in mind, speed running is in no way the...

    Weather

    yeah. crazy. 61 today. ive had 26-32 inches since Jan 10th or so. a bit over a foot melted now in 2 days. have a river in my yard. literal. it even melted all the snow in that location. the "wetlands" next to my house is going to be a mess, hope no damage..

    What classes from all other MMOs would you bring back into a new Game?

    I'd really try to break molds I suppose. Rift had a few that were really good at this. Chloromancer mages. healing via dps. Riftstalker. teleporting, area pulling, taunting, tank rogues. fun as hell.

    Neverwinter: PC

    The campaign stuff is flat flat out time gated isnt it? can you cash shop your away around the 1 daily/weekly stuff, etc? hrm, actually yeah, I suppose the chest do have a chance for getting the daily mats don't they?

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    are you guys still arguing that practitioners and researchers are the same thing? The term "scientist" is not exactly an absolute term. "anyone that uses the scientific method" Well great, that's not that useful is it? In a more practical sense, it would be someone that uses the...

    What color is this truck

    Just a note on that front. First, are you a homeowner? I know your in RI. I don't remember all bits you let out in location. "far from providance" dont remember if URI, Brown, or what college specifically. I don't think you ever mentioned going over hte bridge, so I assume not...

    Neverwinter: PC

    yeah, the game is top notch for gameplay. Seriously might be the best. But its marred by the p2win nature of the monetization. And the grindy nature of end game, from that. And the zones while fun, are more or less just farm zones. No real raids, or Gw2 style dungeons, spvp, wvw, or...

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    yeah, thats exactly what caused a short circuit in my head. saw, PoE and Chris, and thought, why did he get Chris Wilson to sign his Pillars tee? ... ohhhh, Avellone. yes that makes more sense.

    Underworld Ascendant

    not really no. hah. The text systems removed entirely. Plays alot more like a simple dragon quest/warrior. Quick google for an article on it. heres one. NES-Port of Ultima III - The Codex of Editable Wisdom, a Wikia wiki for Ultima and Ultima Online I'm sure there are better breakdowns.

    Overwatch

    Even if we give them credit for SC2 for being competitive. as if there is any rts competition.. Co-op mp pvp, and single player pvp are entirely different ballgames.

    Pillars of Eternity, Obsidian's new CRPG in the vein of Baldur's Gate

    got real confused for a sec. use a diff acronym for Pillars. PoE is totally Path of Exile.

    Star Wars Rebels

    Dual wielding swords in general is kindof stupid. a parrying knife in offhand is only reasonable method. Stabbing with short blade, while long blade is locked, or deflected by oppositions long blade. Backhand is even more silly, as there is only two ways to strike with a sword held...

    Supergirl

    Supergirl is a character that can really exist as almost 90% highschool/college/countrygirl in big city drama. Unlike superman, who grew up in Kansas, and is more human. She IS an alien(AND a teenager), and her learning to socialize is really the prime focus of the character. Who is behind...

    ouch. yeah, people do the second account thing for, doubling up on account based dailies. for most players, probably crazy.

    Underworld Ascendant

    I don't remember if it was a special promo or an always thing. but I got Savage empire, Marian dreams and Quest of the avatar free on GOG. Despite being and "ultima fan" and labeling it as my favorite rpg series. although DQ was always in tight running, and DG8 went a long way to possibly...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    The wording was REALLY odd. It was hamfisted forced drama as you say. Like, what she was trying to say was. "we have this unprecedented genetic mutation from this gas. We have no IDEA if its viral, or contagious. I just watched 12 monkeys, the Strain, Aliens, Helix, and a thousand...

    Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.

    wow. everyone breaking rank, and yelling at each other, while super power person starts to loose control, using the same exact camera work, and pacing from Avengers scene was fucking retarded.

    Gotham

    Watching the episode, My first reaction, and noted a few others questioned it. We thought the daughter may have been Magpie. with some changes. Crazy thief. horder. Obsessed with shiny things. As it went on, seemed less so. but still could be. Jeffery Combs, could transition into...

    Star Wars Rebels

    really complaining? A kids adventure show. Character based, because you KNOW whats going to happen. Like complaining about the plot moving forward in Titanic. Also that finale was awesome. All season. "what do you know about the other rebels?" "I won't betray my friends". ... What...

    Gotham

    not only still alive. but gave her a new eye. Truly a villain worthy of Batman, as much plot armor as the Bat or the Clown.

    What color is this truck

    yeap. Basically, what Mist "wants" is 4wheel drive. That can come in many forms, not necessarily a truck. And again, most trucks, are actually far worse then "most" cars in snow, due to that rear wheel drive. I would expect all Saturns to be front wheel drive for instance.

    What color is this truck

    My grand prix was much better then my current truck in the snow. Same width, lower center of balance, traction control, front wheel drive. Bought a 04 Silverado a couple years back. as a home owner.. suddenly hauling mulch, lawnmowers, etc became useful. Your standard pickup will NOT...

    Blade Runner 2049 (2017)

    Thought of another one. They Live. The no definitive answer works best, considering the theme. What does it mean to be human? the real answer is, "does it matter?" Roy giving his monologue to another replicant instead of a broken human changes it a bit though. I'd rather see a...
