Investigations GM. I took on several tasks in my free time though, including testing and communicating with the players about issues. One of my main side projects was trying to improve the pvp server. And yes, I was there at the end.

The show is great, but it's primarily due to writing/acting/directing- not story. They are trying to do too much and we are missing that tight/focused/driven plot we got with BB and (to a lesser extent) BCS last season. Right now, this is really two separate shows. The first show is about...

I was one of the few in the company fighting for pvp fixes. We just didn't have the time/funding/manpower. After doing some testing on the live pvp server, I came up with a list of the top ten issues and the bard invis thing was near the top. When I went to management, they were so...

Pretty sure this will be the case. I'm guessing they do a crossover a movie that will end "Indiana Jones" and start a new series. New series will have a new name and Pratt will take over as protagonist, but the new series will be in the same vein, in the same timeline, and in the same IP...

I'm perfectly ok with them saying no one but Ford could ever fill Indy's shoes, as long as they are ok with letting the franchise die with dignity. Don't want Chris Pratt to play the next Indy? Let the series be done and come up with something new instead of trying to squeeze every last drop...

I'm right there with you.

I'll play the devil's advocate here: You could write a book on all the shit that went wrong with Sigil. Just having a bunch of people and a bunch of money doesn't mean you are going to pop out a great game. There were a ton of toxic personalities at SGO trying to pull the game in...

Doesn't sound like a terrible way to waste time. Especially if you throw in a train and a dungeon raid from time to time.

Stick around. If Pantheon ever launches you'll get a pretty close approximation.

Making an mmo is such a pain in the ass. There are a million little things like that that need to be shored up and fixed, even after you get the big stuff down. That's where having a big team helps. You can delegate all those little tasks out. Pantheon's small team size is going to slow...

Just went out and got mozzarella sticks. This is like the third time this thread has done that to me since the whole mozzarella sticks incident. I don't know if this thread will help Brad sell any copies of his game, but it sure as hell has helped the mozzarella stick industry in my town.

Sure, you can post whatever you want to post. But if you use that little demo as a platform to keep asking people for money, you're going to kill whatever positive feelings it's generated. Let that shit stand on its own merit (assuming you think it has any).

Yeah. "Genuinely curious." Got it. If people want to donate to dubious business ventures, that's their business. I just don't want to have to sift through a bunch of panhandling and sales pitches when I come to this thread for news or Bisi gifs. You're right, most of us know better- so...

Stop It. Seriously. Don't try and turn this thread into a pledge drive.

There is one that Aradune pulls at the orcs early on but doesn't kill anyone (other than himself) with. There's a pretty funny unexpected one at the end, after the demo while the characters are standing around at bind point answering questions. That, more than anything else, reminded me of EQ

The buff sound is literally identical to EQ and the ding sound at level up is the same but they 'enhanced' it a bit. The con system was word for word for at least some of the cons. Their combat sounds lack the punch of EQ and their spell effect sounds aren't bad but need work. EQ had...

I've gotta say, I'm really surprised. Even Convo would have a hard time finding something to complain about this. He's going to have to check his negative attitude for now. Edit: never mind, he's at it again, the hater

Seriously, dude does need to do a better job at constraining himself and have a talk with his team about what it means to set realistic expectations and downplay things. That's just good business practice. It's funny, EQ was such a smash success and VG such an abysmal failure- and Brad has...

Nice! Thanks Bisi!

Looks good, actually. Looking forward to this.

Same. Some pretty serious changes form the book, but doesn't ruin it.

.

While it's true that Brad is extremely polarizing, there are a few people on the forum that don't fit either of those categories. I'll go ahead and predict most of those without serious bias will be generally underwhelmed, with the more optimistic among them saying things like, "Well, it's a...

My prediction is that the detractors will continue to detract and the apologists will continue to apologize, and life will go on much the same as it was before.

Pathfinder online had the exact same plans. This is one of those obvious ideas that has been tossed around for years. It makes sense. It's a great idea. But it's not new and there's nothing groundbreaking in suggesting it. It may be the first time you've heard it, but lots and lots of...

"Evidence" isn't "evidence" until a crime has been committed. If there are no charges (Indictment, criminal accusation, etc), there is no "evidence." Saul and his client are free to make all the videos they want with relative impunity up until the point that charges are levied. There are...

I'm going to give some free advice to those Pantheon team members that read these boards. It really applies to just about everything in life and you can take it or leave it as you want: Keep your mouth shut about your intentions. Do work. Produce results. In short, don't tell me what...

They're just pretty words man, don't fall in love with pretty words. Wait until you can put your hands on a game that actually does 20% of what that doc says. P.S. You'll be waiting a while

So Crowfall isn't panning out, huh? Stopped following that thread but it looked like they had some good ideas. Anyone want to give me a brief summary on what happened? (Or what didn't happen)

Was thinking the same thing. Present it as symbolism only to reveal it's also actually a plot catalyst later. May not be the case, but that's the kind of thing these guys would do- and part of what makes their shows great.

Thanks for the info.

Yeah, the whole package for the game and expanded content is like $90 on Steam. I want to play, but that's ridiculous.

Damn. That must have been a short sale. Missed it already and you just posted that yesterday. Oh well.

Avoid Comcast like the plague. Seriously. I could tell several long, drawn out stories about how many times they have screwed me and then parade in most of my friends and family to tell you their own stories. Worst of all is the amount of your time they will waste. I put a premium on my free...

Naw, that type of stuff is his bread and butter. He can write something like that up in less than an hour. And have it make sense and be pretty persuasive.

The garbage room = the prison where Gene has locked Saul. "SG was here" is what people write on the walls of the cell where they do time. As others have mentioned, the light switch and the door alarm are parallels. Saul would just open the door, knowing he could talk his way out of any...

Just played Dune II for the first time in almost 25 years. Awesome. Thanks.

In the novel he goes back to '58 and basically has 5 years to prepare to stop the assassination. Not sure they can do a novel of that size and depth justice in 9 episodes.

/ooc is global. I'd get the file pack.

I'm pretty critical and I don't feel like people got plot-stupid for the convenience of the writers. I can sense that shit a mile away and I didn't feel it in the books or show at all. They acted pretty similar to what average joe types encountering an unexpected situation would act like. And...
