    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    There's minimum prices on things, 30 for rares, maybe it's 3 for commons ?

    Heh, I played around with AH for a while, angel of dawn started at $11 for the cheapest and was up to $22 an hour later ;p

    Continuum

    It has nothing to do with SyFy, it's a canadian show, SyFy just bought the US rights for it. 6 words of less won't work given it's kind of complicated - basic premise is time travelling terrorists attempting to prevent a totalitarian future ruled by mega-corporations. Or a 6 worder "fucking...

    Dominion on SyFy (old thread deleted)

    I dunno, depending on her brand of crazy religiousness, that could mean no sex ever ;p The pilot for this was much better than I expected.

    I lost interest and walked off halfway through this one. It was just terrible.

    Yes and no, the game is waving the 'fuck melee' flag pretty vigorously. As you notice when the very first group content has the pbaoe blade whirlwind boss and the chain of a thousand knockbacks boss ( fuck you Esper channelers ;p ).

    The 100

    I did not see that coming. That was actually a really good season finale. Lol at the Jesus walk getting interrupted by someone who just did it instead of talking about it and lol at the "mountain men". The shot of the lake and the contrast with their shit heap was fantastic.

    No Game, Brynhildr and Sidonia are all pretty good. No real must watch stuff though.

    That's debatable - I didn't feel Monster got a lot better or worse after the first 5 or so eps, other than the ending ( endings are traditionally a disaster area for anime, so monster is notable in having a good one ), so if you don't like it by then you probably won't like it if you watch the...

    Edge of Tomorrow (2014)

    This movie was great fun. I wasn't expecting Cruise's character to be such a worthless piece of shit, but it made for great entertainment. The master sergeant's speech walking to the barracks is a nice wink at the situation. I laughed at the literal handwaving they did about how ridiculous...

    EA shuts down Mythic Entertainment

    Same as individual person level - if you judge someone's work is producing less money than you pay them, it's cheaper to fire them than to try and get them to do better. You don't need any tax writeoffs to make that appealing when the bottom line is $$$. It's sort of a curse of publicly...

    Medicare Coverage Ban on Sex Change Surgery Has Been Lifted

    3D Gaming

    I consider the 3dvision set to possibly be the biggest waste of money I have ever spent on hardware. The effect can be kind of immersive, but the drawbacks are just too frustrating - second monitors are a huge problem, room lighting is a huge problem, the glasses are uncomfortable and...

    Dominions 4

    I'd offer a different opinion to Grimsark - you need to learn a *LOT* of stuff to play even half competently. The AI isn't a match for a strong human player, but you are not going to be a strong human player for a very long time. Plus, you can always plays Middle Ages and Ermor ( the undead...

    It'd surely be at least half his fault with him being busy with Arrow in a different country.

    Dammit, this thread prompted me to start it up again, and I got crushed mercilessly. Sigh ;p I just can't resist playing the undead, even when I know it's going to end in 5 on 1 gangbang with more priests than vatican city. Still, what other games can you field an army of 800 zombies...

    If you have any latency then this is actually a pretty effective way of avoiding telegraphs, rather than waiting to see it and then moving.

    I dunno, 30% off the width of electrocute is going to be really annoying, it was hard enough to hit multiple things with it to start with, given how they run all over the place ;p

    X-Men: Days of Future Past.

    This was an excellent film. Really liked it. The opening was great, I loved the way they were expert and working together. Best performance to young magneto for his verbal bitch slapping of professor emo.

    It's easy - low level play on the esper is horrible, both their builder and their super ability root them in place. I'm surprised they got as many votes as they did.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Yes to all. Beta key if anyone wants to try it out. Keep in mind there's no PVE at the moment, so the only thing you can do without spending any cash is to duel other people with a starter deck, or play against a pretty weak AI. Send me a PM if you use it, so I can edit it out. edit...

    That was the last dungeon revamp. First pass they nerfed the shit out of specials, which made it too easy. Second pass they buffed the shit out of white damage. Most people have said it keeps constant pressure on heals.

    Hmm, reading Hasbro's annual report for 2013 to see how much of a big deal for them this would be - hoo boy. Gaming revenue was up 10% to 2 billion, with first credit given to magic the gathering for year on year revenue growth with extremely low manufacturing cost. Yeah, they are almost...

    The art and the names are the only thing that are copyrightable, game rules can't be copyrighted. It's all about the patent claims.

    Yes, this. They don't expect to win, just to drain crypto dry. Them going out of business is a win for them anyway.

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    That definition of "copied" has no hope of winning anything. Which is a good thing, because being able to copyright 'a unit with 2 attack' would be unbelievably stupid and disruptive. The actual patent for MTG ishereand is actually pretty well written, specific and descriptive, which I...

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    If you've seen the holy grail, they were comparing the dreadfort attack to the attack on the rabbit. More from the silliness than any direct connections. Which is fair, that scene was pretty terrible and made no sense.

    At raid level I can't say personally, but reports are that stalker and engineer tank are pretty close but warrior has huge threat problems. This seems to be a problem at lower level as well since last patch - the war tank I ended up in hycrest with lost aggro every few seconds ( was in right...

    You can, the path to algoroc from the main city is just through the underground tunnels, you come out of the mountain se of the town there. Be warned though that going into the starter zones puts you at the start of the starter zone, rather than the end, so it's a long hike to get out again ;p...

    Hex: Shards of Fate TCG - Set 7: Frostheart 6/29/17

    Yeah, their plan on that front is a large F2P PVE side. Unfortunately they seem to be epically behind schedule, and have no signs of any of it available yet, and no ETA. Still, I think the gold/plat economy will be pretty solid whenever pve does go in - the gold cost of rolling the PVP chests...

    Hey, both are plausible for the same reason. This is a useless bunch of juvenile criminals, they would probably have an even chance of either freezing to death after running out of matches or burning their camp to the ground.
