Tad has a good point. Colored mana is great. Unless you're color blind. Then the game will play exactly the same because coloring mana doesn't fucking matter at all. See also: mana vs energy vs stamina. It doesn't matter what you call it or what color it is. TAD.

Well, I think having opinions means my opinion is also a universal fact and everything should be designed how I personally prefer and if it's not I will declare it to be bad or broken. And WoW didn't have to do shit but turn pvp on. Instead, adding all the rules and instances didn't make pvp...

I've tried and tried to get into Civ5, but then I realize I was having to try to like a Civ game and it was a bit depressing. Civ5 just always feels so pre-determined and on rails, or something shallow/stale. I think the base game of Civ4 is still better, but add in the mod community and it...

Holy shit, didn't even realize that was him in TWD... probably because every time the preacher is on screen I try not to watch because it's so bad. Same with I'm-A-Scientist. It's one of the worst characters I've ever seen in a tv show, but the actor on Talking Dead actually seems smart and...

Oh, you! If they did, they'd have to completely gut and change Saul from the charming, funny, oddly optimistic character he was even in Breaking Bad. Instead of heavy Drama with Saul as relief, they seem to be going more toward the quirky charm of Saul with Mike providing heavy drama relief...

Especially when you can often find higher watts and ratings if you can afford to shop around some to price match and wait for good deals. I got my Seasonic 1050 on sale and with a rebate for the price that the 650 at retail, and 850 was with the same rebate. Yep, it's overkill, but if you have...

But, that's kind of the point. The organized remnants of humanity, who have now accepted what they are up against, STILL can't adjust and handle any situation. I guess it's just easier to keep going to the OH NO ZOMBIES thing over and over instead of having to write in real drama. The...

So in shit-your-pantheon Aradune Mithara the Ranger slings brown mana?

Good writing leaves the following options: She took the chocolate to plant on someone else if they do notice missing guns. She took the chocolate to explain if she was seen/caught sneaking in there. Bad writing leaves the following options: She took it for no good reason other than a...

I think Matty was protecting himself, Mike, and his family, whether it was fear of retribution or prison, the end result is pretty well the same. And I don't think Mike was just trying to protect his ass, though self-preservation is always a factor in motivation, but trying to protect his son...

I was going to watch even if it were dumb, because I also watched True Blood and The Walking Dead and they're plenty dumb. I'm dumb like that. I saw a lot of potential in The 100, though, and thought early on they were going to blow it. Thankfully it's actually gotten good, since, like I...

If you think about it, he didn't compromise his morals for the money at all. He did it because Mike convinced Matt he knew dirty cops because he was one and the only way to appease the other dirty cops and not end up dead was to look like you were in on it. You only get one shot to be...

Hey, low blow, leave the first couple dev teams out of this!

Great episode of what's becoming a great show. I think it's perfect for people who didn't watch BB, too, because through a side character it starts taking the show to the next deepest level of drama/conflict and prepares viewers for the fact that the world/events/people this show is about can...

It makes sense. I mean everyone knows warriors like casting spells with red mana the most!

Please stop posting actually mmo game/genre related things in this thread... it's getting confusing.

He was nice and humble in the after game interview saying all the credit goes to his teammates and how they were just really executing well on offense. Amazing solo performance, but wouldn't really call that impressive offensive execution to simply have him and Bron jacking up shots and forcing...

Housing could have been cool if there were a point. I remember the early days them talking about persistent housing so you could open your own crafting shop or have a merchant while you weren't logged in. It was a pie-in-the-sky bust from day zero, though. Just sort of a thing to tinker with...

Targeting the healer or weakest player was something they tried as early as EQ with terrible results. Basically, if allowed, the computer is really, really good at wiping your group and it's not fun.

I also, most definitely, like the rest of you, have a penis you should believe is just big enough for you all to envy but not so big you think I'm lying.

All his posts replaced with a period makes sense, since Kyndread only ever posts when he's menstruating.

The Acer estimated pre-order price converted pounds to dollars makes it nearly $1100? I know that's higher than actual retail will end up after launch and not at all concrete, but still, probably going to wait a few years myself :P

Have the ultimate version from Steam not that long ago, so I think I have the expansions. Will just have to wait it out, I guess, as everyone being murder sounds awesome. Thanks everyone for the other suggestions to get some space fix.

Hrm, trying to get the girlfriend into some gaming... GW2 might be good intro. Thanks for the heads up. Only fear is if she ends up liking it too much? Anyone recommend a good space/galaxy building game? Trying Galactic Civilizations 2 but it feels a bit shallow and I always get to the...

This is like when Brad kept saying they just needed to get the word out? Word is out. It's bad. It's too late to involve the communities. What they need to do is post a public apology the way things were handled, explain they're going completely dark to focus on the game, and then focus on...

Interesting info. It sounds like SOE was for sale, Sony was asking way too much from people who actually cared about the project/IP, game related investors moved on, a long time later they're left selling SOE for jack-shit to a company that doesn't give a damn about the IP or making games...

I dunno, Carol is only fitting in play along. Rick is hella cautious. Carl is sneaking out after the girl sneaking out. Glenn is punching Deanna's son. The pointless military character is shouting "Who's Deanna?! Not everyone is treating Alexandria as a "return to normal" I wouldn't say...

My point was Kyrie is shit for ball movement. Lebron is the better passer/distributor. He just chose not to for the most part and tried to go 1v5 as he's prone to do and that's what killed ball movement, team play, etc. At least when ball movement is killed by Kyrie that means he's at least...

pics or it didn't happen.

When the show simply depicts what reality would be like in this sort of setting it's pretty good. When they try to do melodramatic shit like making everyone crazy for the sake of drama it gets bad. The community needs help, and Rick's crew needs help. The logical thing that makes sense is the...

If not having Kyrie Irving kills ball movement then the team really has a problem.

Not sure if the show is more or less entertaining when episodes are actually good. Not much pausing and not much to complain about. Is confusing.

From what I understand, that's the point of gsync. The monitor adapts and syncs to fps, so you don't need to try to get fixed fps that matches your refresh. That said, you don't want FPS dropping below 60 or it'll still look like crap? Or at some point there's got to be a low-end cuttoff...

Fully populated and itemized 1-50 with the slower leveling curve is something I'd try to set up a few static dungeon crawling groups for, as that would basically be what the game should have been at launch. 51+ is wasted resources doing anything but cutting it. I don't know anyone that would...

Nah, this is nothing new. The only difference from the usual "big game studios suck we should make our own game" sort of rallying of tards is now one dude is willing to put up bingo winnings to support the delusion!

Yeah. The difference is the early generations of games forced you to figure it out or suck. Now, developers are afraid the few people who will suck so bad to ragequit are their most important customers, so add in crutch mechanics instead of just trusting that a game will be better overall for...

The problem is those hour-at-a-time quest mechanics have to be good, so whether you're playing 1 hour or 8 hours grinding quests because the best or sometimes the only way to experience the game because the devs have made quests the primary vehicle for advancement. It would be great if your...

What I liked about Vanilla WoW was they had a ton of areas that were worth just grinding in, or exploring, or named hunting to go along with all the quest-rails areas. Few cared about the non-quest areas, though, for better or worse depending on your playstyle and preference. From a design...

This idea is a pure ripoff. I remember coming up with the idea in the middle school lunchroom as a kid. Hey guys, wouldn't it be awesome if my handful of general ideas could become a DnD campaign or video game?!?! If only there were pre-existing tools and other people with the skills to make...

I remember the early days with player posts talking about how you'd make your house in a dangerous area near a raid entrance and you'd be a diplomat so people who basically knock on your door and request your diplomatic services to open up the raid you live near that you've spent months...
