The MTG card I cared about was this one lol

I remember in grade school, some kid brought in a floppy disc and let us all copy it. It was a crack for hundreds of games that basically bypassed the "on page 6, paragraph 2, what is the 2nd word?". After that, we all shared our games with each other lol 2nd game crack I encountered was when...

I could never get into games like Myst - the only puzzle/adventure games I liked were the Sierra/Lucasarts style ones like Space Quest or Fate of Atlantis. I played the shit out of WC3/4, though. That was back when the novelty of seeing FMV on your PC was amazing - it's funny, I recall...

That's pretty much every game it feels like "Your drivers aren't up to date. Would you like to download the latest drivers that will brick your video card?"

Blue mage started out as 1-50 only as well - it took years for them to boost the level cap to current levels

Live letter happened 1) Patch comes out end of April 2) Beastmaster will come in a later sub patch. Can tame up to 50 things, can have 3 out at a time, level 50 cap. Will have a special instance they can join as well 3) Housing furniture: 50% increase on limits inside, 100% increase outside...

Two things can be true here: there probably was some legitimate sexual harassment issues/weird shit like the breast milk thief and there probably was more push for “print money or heads roll”

Curious on how they will work - will they be an actual pet class or will it be like summoner revamp

No, they reused some assets from Project Titan, which was their canceled MMO project. Jeff talks about it in this video, but in prior interviews it sounded like they wanted to make a class based superhero MMO where you also had to work a regular job (basically you’re Clark Kent working at the...

It provides an alternative activity in the game. I haven’t done serious raiding since original Naxx in WoW. I would do some LFR raids in later xpacs, maybe some dailies, then I was bored. Then I quit and went to FF14 probably around 8 years ago. Granted once you make your house you don’t...

Most of these anti-housing comments read to me as “I have zero creativity and never made my own custom bases for my GI Joe figures” I used to make earthen dams with water behind them and bases made with blocks and sticks so I could have environmental destruction as my GI joes fought. These...

My only memory of the ET game was I was at a house as a kid and the kid who lived there asks if I want to play an Atari game, so I look through the small pile of games and say "how about ET?" and he responded "that game is stupid, pick another one". I think he eventually played it to show me...

I got a laugh out of seeing this in the comments of that interview

Tigole lives!

Their infamous licensing process. I recall there were unlicensed games for a hot minute - Tengen I think was the publisher? They made a version of Tetris due to some game rights snafu and some other games. I think they had Gauntlet also? Nintendo sued them. If I recall, the argument was...

Division 2 had more than 5 devs originally

Why the fuck are all these lawsuits coming from the UK? First they implement all these “won’t someone think of the children???” Digital ID laws that are just an excuse to conduct surveillance on adults, now their dogshit tech laws are letting people file moronic lawsuits about on par with that...

I like how everyone calls him Temu Wesker

Good for that actress in any case - that has got to be a huge improvement for her health

Only things you probably need to know from the first 1 1) Cole is descended from Scorpion (although this didn’t really go anywhere). Pretty sure Cole will get killed in the first 5 minutes of this new movie, so only adding this since it may help explain Scorpion motivation in this one 2) Like...

Same reason you remember some random actor or actresses name from a tv show or movie: you like them and it helps you identify them in other stuff. Or meme reasons I’m sure most non-noobs on this board know who Kate “the hoof” is

X to doubt, unless you were raised in some Mormon bubble

There was for sure a lot of plotholes or head scratching moments. "This thing will create global anarchy!!! Oh well, time to destroy it!". Dude is so chaotic that he even is chaotic in choices regarding his plan lol

Ya, it is easy to forget, but TOS fans initially did not like TNG at all. Then when DS9 rolled around, TNG fans didn't think it was "real Trek".

In the show Chuck, there is a scene where one of the characters loses all his memories of movies he watched. So he watches the Star Wars movies, but he starts with episode 1 and the prequels ruin his enjoyment of the OG trilogy. He then mentions he saw the first 3 Indiana Jones movies and asks...

That is why something like New World or Dune: Awakening is my preference - you have 3 skills at any given time that you can assign to QER, which makes it much more intuitive when you're moving around using WASD and mouse. Shit where you have to be a classically trained Pianist to play...

Lexx being so fucked up was what made it great. It also had some great science jokes buried in the storylines. Like the 2nd season basically had a "grey goo" storyline where these robot arms kept replicating and eventually they consume all matter in the universe and to defeat them, they force...

DSV went off the rails in the later seasons. 1st season was mostly "grounded" stuff - geopolitics and sea pirates and helping with disasters/rescues (basically normal Navy stuff cept in the future!). Then 2nd season started to introduce shit like time travel and aliens and Roy Scheider said...

Farscape will come back any day now… …any day…

I missed the whole TCG train. MTG came out and I remember I bought a starter deck and some boosters...and then people stopped playing it at school completely before I even got a chance to play during lunch. That was my last attempt at trying to get into a TCG. Although I bought a bunch of...

It is/was a TCG card game that was big around the time people were buying Pokemon cards (early 2000s). Think Magic the Gathering. Early 2000s was a wild west of TCG card games - everyone was making them because they were hoping to cash in on the Pokemon card fad. I had a friend who collected...

End of the day, money is what changed stuff. Games suddenly had budgets like Hollywood blockbusters because big publishing houses were willing to toss more money at projects in the hopes it would equal big returns. With more money comes more expectations, so you need to bring on more people to...

Nah, Deep is going to die. He was becoming somewhat sympathetic in earlier seasons, so the writers did a hard 180 and went out of their way to counter that. For example, when he lets his Octopus girlfriend die and doesn't do anything to save her.

I had to look it up - they stopped publishing Nintendo Power back in 2012. Before Nintendo Power, they had the "Nintendo Fun Club" which was free to join. You got a membership card and like once every couple months they would send out some free mini-magazine that had tips and glitches (I...

I mean it's a pretty big plotpoint in the final part of the comics

Pc Accelerator was such an awesome magazine

Gatekeeping and resistance to new science has always been a thing. Go back 60-70 years and plate tectonics weren’t widely accepted. It really wasn’t until the discovery of the mid Atlantic ridge that irrefutable proof finally made it gain widespread acceptance That being said, you do need a...

Like I said before, if they dropped that trailer in the middle of the game awards, it would have never received the level of pre-release hate that it got. Would it have done well? Probably not unless it got insanely good word of mouth, which it wouldn’t have with its launch features.

I remember being in early WoW beta and lots of people asked Blizzard on the beta forums to add mailboxes and auction houses like FFXI. They eventually added them before launch. They’re expected features now, but at the time it wasn’t a base feature in MMOs

That too - I think I got 1 group and they were nice, most times they wouldn't group with westerners. Part of it was probably language, but westerners were new and didn't know how to combo properly as a rule. I remember one interaction where a group was looking for a party. I asked to join and...
