    The Horror Movie Thread

    yeah, that was what I liked about it. As I was mentioning in the post. Each story is kindof "what"? Not perfect, but really each story did a great job of being unique. (except the surrounding story, which was pretty typical)

    Mama

    yeah. I think his work, works much better when coming from the fantasy side. Things like pans labyrinth which is fantasy first, but crazy dark. Most fairytales are pretty dark in the first place. But his horror stuff tends to get a bit silly, and just doesn't have that feeling of unease...

    [manga] Everything Else

    don't bother trying to use logic or anything with fairytale. Anything goes at any time, there is no real basis of continuity. Or that is the continuity. Anything can happen. (I am not stating that as a criticism in this case.)

    League Of Legends

    they've gone through revisions. There was a time when GP was ALL about 1 shotting with parley. And kat was primarily AD with BB and lotus being her only real attacks. New league stuff looks great. I must stay away from that. haha.

    The Horror Movie Thread

    yeah, that was a really nice surprise, when I've been going through all of netflix's horror movies. I liked that one alot. I really dig movies that are based on old world stuff. Curses, fae, unseeli, changlings, trolls, gnomes, forest spirits/gods, etc. Its nice to see movies pay homage to...

    The Netflix Thread

    yeah, got around to Iron sky. Got to admit, not quite what I expected. Didn't hate it at all. so silly. Unicorn City was ok. It kindof bugged me the main girl was entirely too attractive. It really fucked with the narrative for the early parts. I don't care how big of a geek she is...

    Path of Exile

    The next step is to disgaea this shit up. Maps are a good idea. but know whats even better? Having to go INTO your skill gems and power them up by beating random generated maps in them. Taking Disgaea's item world and sticking it into a d2 clone or poe would be amazing.

    Why hide the screenshots and rickshaw forums?

    its like we've become those mmos we hate!! Placing up barriers of entry, or sub fees.

    Path of Exile

    yeah, the shop is pretty much literally the hordradic cube. PoE does stand out. First, it far and away "feels" like a sequel to D2. Yet, at the same time it also takes some of the biggest leaps in design. which is pretty remarkable. The game took bigger risks, and feels more like a...

    Do you have health insurance?

    Thought I would update. 3 months since start of this. $3067 out of pocket. to tell me, no don't have cancer. cyst is still there, and might still have to have surgery. Which of course would be more like 10-30k or more. Consider, as stated in jobs thread. Self employed artist...

    urgot was the quintessential ad caster. kog as well. Could make an argument for gankplank from time to time. Katrina.

    Mama

    yeah, his horror is a bit weak. While his fantasy work is amazing. tinged with alot of dark elements. which, he only produced this. Shit, with the advertising, I didnt even realize that. Dont be afraid of the dark, he co-wrote the screenplay adaptation.
  14. Caliane

    Well, now what?

    yeah, I feel that is completely wrong as well. Right off the bat, suggesting UO and EQ weren't built in the effort to make money is just stupid. Sub fees started for a reason right from the start.

    Gun control

    teachers have enough things on their plate. They do not need to be adding maintaining and storing guns to that list. Let guards handle it.

    Gun control

    Was looking for some numbers of gun related deaths in schools, but found this pdf on children gun deaths in general. http://www.childrensdefense.org/chil...-guns-2012.pdf Most interesting I thought was the shift from suicides to homicides. Adults, suicides are the largest # of gun...

    Torchlight 2

    no. it is. I'm preferring PoE LARGELY due to Torchlights mp grouping being ass. I'm not sure why they are dragging their feet with these poor MP designs. From what I can tell, the guys here are the ones that designed D2's battlenet in the first place.

    League Of Legends

    seriously. everyone wards. how you expect the bot support to ward top for you, is just idiotic. or expect the support, to ward river, etc alone, is just stupid. Jungle is the most capable of warding. due to safety and mobility. I was at a point where it was pretty rare for me to hear...

    are you suggesting there is a problem with the safety of children at schools?

    Gun control

    The real danger here is: Teachers are fucktards. Think of all the times news stories come out about teacher-student sex. or students finding alcohol teachers have, or porn on PC's, etc. Teachers carrying, is another gun that can find its way into a students hand. A guard, well that is...

    got a chance to check out dota2 finally. Man, lol is so much better. So much dumb legacy shit from wc3, that should have been removed by any sensible designer. Fucking useless UI as well. So cluttered.

    Well, now what?

    haha oh man. I think you would be surprised. Compulsion has little to do with enjoyment.

    Well, now what?

    yeah, exactly. Hence the question. Kindof need a ballpark of what low budget means to him. Could make a web based game via flash, java, or old engines even, for well under 500k. Generally, you will see these types of games, coded by yourself though. so your own salary is kindof 0, when you...

    Well, now what?

    when you say low budget, do you mean? 500k?, 2million, or 20 million?

    Django Unchained

    Standard manipulating of awards. If Waltz was put up for lead actor, he'd be going against Daniel Day Lewis in Lincoln. Putting him in "supporting actor" ought to be a free win on the other hand.
  26. Caliane

    Well, now what?

    too fun. They wanted tighter control on what to expect in player stats. raid timers, etc. Wow got more and more fine tuned to very specific dps, hps, etc WoW systematically removed a TON of player control in its instance design.

    Path of Exile

    CI is strong, but not op. you give up health pots, regen, life leach, "low hp" passive/skills. you give up all life for 50% ES buff, and chaos immune. If it didn't give you more then you put in, no one would take it. however, its not a free win. there are definitely strong trade offs.

    Well, now what?

    I was mostly just commenting on it. seems what people say, and what people want are two different things. Remember, back during early GW2 bwe, I was commenting how I felt the hearts, and 100% completion was a bad idea? People kept saying over and over they "completed a zone" specifically...

    percent of homicides involving guns by circumstance... Gang related. 70-90%. felony. 60-80% Argument. 70-60% Other 60%. uh.... anyone else see a problem with that chart?

    http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-s...aTJzdmLKam6zeD This is what I would be looking at currently. Softcore. Updated of the old witch. I don't know where many of the new items or skills change how it used to play. Shock nova used to be awful. cold snap as bad, and seems even worse...

    Well, now what?

    ... what I am hearing here is... why do we even have phone numbers at all? seems like a very outdated method. They are basically just shitty user ID's at this point.

    Well, now what?

    hrm. Gw2 has a shit ton of hidden unmarked stuff. Yet people are complaining that the map doesn't put MORE giant orange GO HERE signs up for DE's across the map.

    Guild Wars 2

    Instances are fine. The problem is no one putting on their thinking caps, as Cantatus stated. I mean, look at the holiday event instances. that is the kind of thing you can do in a instance. Why aren't you getting that creative for dungeons?

    Path of Exile

    yeah the ice spells are generally considered the best for witch.' at least they were. There are a few new supports since I last played. Just got arc on my witch. pretty sure that wasn't in before. What is up with curses? I used to run, temporal curtain, and elemental weakness. Is...

    We saw the same shit with Sopa. And what is really disturbing, is these aren't special cases. Pretty much anything that goes through is full of dumb shit like this. And we just don't pay attention to it. Politicians are not scientists, etc. They do not know shit about anything, other...
