    Physical decks are generally insufficiently randomized. You're an idiot. What you're thinking of as 'random' is actually 'evenly distributed,' which is actually the opposite of random. Physical hands are more evenly distributed because people seed their lands back into their deck in a...

    Titanfall

    So apparently this game is only going to be 6v6 max. There are AI units on the map but they're not player-like bots, just footsoldiers of some kind. It sounds kind of MOBA-like.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Fixed number is good, as long as you have at least 16 abilities. 10 is way too few in GW2. EQnext looks like it has too few as well. Maybe 5 from weapon, 6 from class, 4 from subclass/multiclass whatever and an ultimate of some kind.

    I did not say that. If you think I said that, then you don't know how to comprehend a sentence. I specifically said they have no interest in ending socialism for the rich. I specifically said we become a socialist country over 70 years ago, so you can do the math and figure out where it started.

    Hate to tell you, but we've had a socialist economy in America for about 70 years now. And it worked pretty damn well until the Reaganites decided to remake it into "socialism for the rich only." The supposed "right wing" establishment has no interest in getting rid of agri subsidies, oil...

    Suggestion for PC player to get into occasional console side (PS4)..........

    You could just slam your dick in the disk tray a few times. That's probably more fun than most console games.

    You should look for any Force of Will in your collection. I dunno if you stopped at Ice Age or Alliances, they run together for most people, but that card is worth as much as the duals despite being an Alliances uncommon. Arabian Nights mountains are also worth like 50 dollars a piece...

    Maybe you didn't, but the number of people cosplaying Borderlands characters at conventions is telling of the fact that a lot of other people did. The visual elements of the characters certainly help as well. You should work backwards from what the hardcore fans identify with the most about...

    Wow. That is quite the prize sitting in your closet. :P I'm super jealous, I had to sell what was left of my collection (60+ revised duals) after my house flooded. You're going to want to sell directly to other players. If you sell on ebay you're going to get maybe 70% of what they're...

    Stories in video games

    I think as far as plots go, the plot should be very genre-aware. It shouldn't burden the player with making a lot of difficult plot choices if those choices are going to be irrelevant in the end anyway as will be the case in almost all games. (I'm looking at you, Mass Effect!) If it's a good...

    Inter-character dialogue can be exceptionally important in all three mediums. Modern setting games like GTA and Saint's Row draw the player in by having really entertaining dialogue. Borderlands falls into this as well. Almost all the fan-favorite game series have lots of entertaining...

    'Plot' is actually one of the least important elements in most types of movies and even in novels for that matter, so the fact that it's not very important in video games shouldn't be much of a surprise. But plot isn't the only element of story. Characters are important in all 3 mediums, so...

    It's not technical restraints. It's restraints based on player expectations. WoW, for a large number of people, defined what players expect an MMO to be like, and companies are too skittish to defy those expectations.

    Hearthstone

    Arena drafts should be more structured. You should get 2 legendary picks, (cards presented still 3 random) a Legendary at pick #1 and one at pick #16. 3 random epics at picks #2, #10 and #20. 8 rares and 17 commons to fill out the rest.

    Battlefield 4 (Frostbite 3)

    Battlelog is pretty good, but Origin is fucking horrible. It's a service that serves no purpose because it has no actual useful features. The friends list, the most basic community feature an online service can have, is so bad that Battlelog has to have it's own friends list.

    Okay you picked out a 1 DIMM kit of memory. That's not going to work well for you. You want a dual channel pair. You probably want a slighly bigger PSU, and you probably want one with a higher efficiency rating.

    Thank you everyone in this thread for lowering my expectations of this movie. I ended up liking it a lot, at least the first 80% of it or so. The last 20 minutes or so felt completely unnecessary. Giant gold dwarf? Wtf. But overall it was a pretty good movie.

    I've been saying this stuff for years. The establishment wants to neuter males, because neutered males won't fight for things like workers rights like they once did over half a century ago. And they've used mainstream feminism as one of their prongs of attack to do it. Mainstream feminist has...
