"I think there is a place for casual mode in gaming. Some people who once played computer games to excess now have much less free time because of a career, never-ending home repair, car problems, supporting a family, &c. They probably want to experience an enjoyable visual adventure without all the time-consuming grinding." All, I read when I see this is a lot of crying and ignorance. People like that don't want to play games they want to pretend to play games. 'Casual mode' is 'stupid mode'. How cna you claim to be someone who likes to PLAY games when you want the games so 'casual'/'dumbed down' that it basically plays itself? That's beyond illogical.

"Can we start calling guys like him male attention whores? They really have all the hallmarks of attention seeking behavior and narcissism" What's funny is feminists and SJWs whine about the infamous 'white male gamer rapists exist racist who bullies' yet they ally themselves with guys who could actually fit the profile. LMAO "The avarage game journalist has matured out of putting scores on things." DId she just put herself on the level of the Codex? LMAO "We're trying to look at games as cultural objects, that you cannot rate and put into a catalog, and tell gamers on whether you should buy them or not. We're out of that mileu. We do not talk about games like that anymore." She shoudls top lying. Then again, this is the same woman who bashes other woman and belittles them repeatedly. She laso really hates blacks. EVIL TO THE CORE.

Dev sends death threat to Valve CEO, has game removed from STEAM
Volourn replied to Kaftan Barlast's topic in Way Off-Topic
"For example its become normal and acceptable for some people who support GG to make rape statements and death threats against feminists." No, it hasn't. Don't lie. "Anthropologists and sociologists have studied in detail cultures and societies all over the world, where death threats are part and parcel of linguistic intensifers and even outright accepted behaviour venting frustration and anger." You just repeated what I said. In some situations it is acceptable and others it is not. Duh. It's udnerstood that in some palces and situations (like a family member or friend) that you can utter 'dramatic death threats' without it being meant and in others it is not. Duh. -
"GG should be asking "how can we get people like BruceVC to support us"." Why? Bruce VC is a feminist/SJW who believes women are weak children and men - white men specifically - are racist sexist pigs who are simply rapists. Why does GG need to impress the BruceVCs? I, for one, don't need such 'support'. I'm a gamer and I like games and believe in equality. Feminsist and SJWs do not as evidenced byu their multiple attacks on women for being women. You proclaimed us gamers did. Well, we are very much a live and still playing our games. YOU LOSE. "If you really believe the Internet is just chaos and somehow that chaos can achieve a result then you are gong to be very, very disappointed when GG amounts to nothing" GG has already won. It can't lose because gamers are alive and still playing games. Nice try though with your lies. "No I need to go through the links myself before I comment. But its quite possible, it doesn't mean the website is now going to close down which seems to be an objective of some people from GG?" Keep spinning the facts and moving the goalposts. Typical SJW. When the plot isn't going your way you change the story. "Can I be for "honesty and integrity" and also honestly admit that most mainstream vidyagames are pretty disappointingly sexist?" They aren't. But, I forgot, a game sis exist when you are able to murder 1000 men and then kill 1 woman and OMG the game hates women! HAHAHA! "Sexism is, for example, the fact every female humanoid in the first Witcher game who the developers bothered to give a name was either (1) somebody the player-surrogate could have sex with, (2) represented by the "hunchbacked old crone" character model, or (3) the madam of a brothel." WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA! That's not neccessarily sexism at all espciially when the game(s) show males in a poor light as well. They show Mr. twicther as a homicidal **** who sleeps around willy nilly. Yeha, sure shows men in a good light. L0L One can spin anything they want.

Energy weapons do more damage when enemies have armour not the other way around. It's why when you face a group of energy weapon using enemies it's best to go 'naked'.

"I could finish Planescape: Torment twice in that time. Even with the ability to turn on the rangers I never cared about the world and its people enough to want to see would happen. Also the only games I think have genuinely good stories are Torment, Spec-Ops: The Line, Shadow of the Colossus and maybe Metal Gear Solid 2." Most of those games are pure crap. PST's story is good but overrated. What is so 'special' about their stories that make you 'care' so much'?

Like most of your posts. "Let's put it this way. If I got heated enough at my boss that I said I was going to kill them, whether it was to their face, to another coworker, or even just to myself and was overheard, and this information got to my boss, I would expect I would be fired on the spot, there would also be at least some possibility that the police would be called and I would be escorted off the premises by them. If I then went back a day later and said "hey man, I was just messing around" the chances of me getting my job back would be fairly slim." Exactly. Jokingly saying youa re 'gonna kill someone' only works if you are close with them. ie. Either friends or family. -

Are people going to finally admit that feminists and SJWs are sexist racist nazi pigs who believe in slavery, think men are just rapists and women are weak, pathetic, child like, and need to be handled with kid gloves? Feminism is evil to the core. #SupportEqualismIfYouAreAGoodPerson -

"What's the alternative?" An actual contract that perfectly lays out what boths dies' rights and responsibiltiies are including what is worthy of ternmination of said contract by both aprties. "Read the Terms of Service. Some of the many complaints people have about Steam, including some that encompass that, are laid out there." 'Terms of service' are not actual contracts and are often laughed out of court. People who take them seriously - outside the obvious - need to rethin it. Now if your 'term of service' is code for 'signed contract' between Steam and a developer who puts their game on the site that's different, Of course, I'm sure almost any contract and the alw allows one to end a contract with someone who threatens to kill them so, in this situation, it doesn't really matter in the long run because Steam would likely win in court if it was pursued down that route. -

Feminism is dying. Equalism - the anti racist and antis exist group that battles the sexist and racist feminists and SJw - will live on. -

That's a horrible way for people to do business. Developers are dumb to work with steam. That doesn't mean I agree with the death threat and actually I don't blame Steam not wanting to work with the guy anynmore whether ihe was just 'venting' or menaing it. If I'm a boss of a company I surely would avoid working with someone who made public death threats against me. Heck, I'm not a boss, but if my boss made a death threat towards - even if he didn't mean - I'd have to rethink working for me him. LMAO -
They don't expect you to care. Consdieirng you can choose to betray the rangers your argument is lame. Not to mention illogical. It's story isn't deep but it's better than most of the game you think have good stories. Trust me on that. "Speaking about perks and traits, WL2 as it is ended up being compared to Fallout much more than it's needed, if you ask me. And conclusion more often is "This is lousy Fallout!". I think the first reason devs came up with brand new role system is to avoid using SPECIAL (does it fall under Fallout license, by the way? Just curious.)" You do realzie that the characetr system used in WL2 is based on WL1 which came out before FO right? The FOs are the 'spiritual successor' of WL not the other way around. "I just hope people playing PoE will never conclude "This is lousy Baldur's Gate!"."\ \I'm more worried that PE will turn out to be plain old lousy or merely 'average'. WL2 doesn't ahve that problem. It's awesomesauce.

So I guess there is no Steam -developer contracts? Steam can just pull games willy nilly or is there a 'do not make mean post/stupid real or not real death threats at Steam boss' stipulation in any signed contract? <> Just wondering. -
Luck is a fun stat. It's not needed but it can be useful.

Have fun. You ahve as many as 7 characters in the game so you'll be fine with the right approach to combat. Still, best advice is give every character at least one weapon skill and spreak non combat skills around. It's also good to have at least 2+ characters with the med/doctor skills espciially doctor in case your doc goes down you have back up. Don't listen to the x weapon sucks or y wepaon is best. Everyone has their faves but all weapons can be sueful at minimum (personally, to me, handguns are probably the weakest but others would likely laugh at me for saying that heh). Finally, have fun.
-
INtelligence. Afgility. Perception. Luck. Sorry but the flimsy excuses try to defend strenth 1 brute force 10 character si silly. It is illogical. It's gamey. Nothing more nothing less. There's no 'RL logic' in it. Also, WL2 has lots of skills 'cause it is old skool and it is a sequel to WL1 which also had lots of skills. And, it's awesome because of it. of course, some skills are shortshafted but eh can't all be winners. <> Then again, according to some everyone should be winners in 2014. Unless you disagree with the hive mind then you are a loser.

"Wow, it's gotten echo-chambery in here. Even Bruce has gotten tired of humoring you all, which is saying something. Anyhow, Kluwe is indubitably a troll with a consistent schtick build around creative profanity, but he's not wrong about the damage this whole thing is doing to the broader perception of people who play vidyagames. Rail about the latest outrageous thing on twitter all you want-- the message that the public gets is still "gamers heap abuse and scorn at anybody who suggests that vidyagames might be a little bit sexist." The side with the most sexists is the feminists and SJWs like Bruce not us gamers. \I have no problem, and never had any with women playing, making, or writing about video games. Nice try with your bigotry. Let me guess. You are a white male manspalining how all the females who support gamers/gamergate are brainwashed? LMAO Feminists are sexist pieces of crap. PERIOD. Equalists > ALL -

I don't think an NFLer shoudl be throwing stonea t anyone. Mr. Kluwe knows what kind of cultture the NFL relishes right? And, if gamers are misognyists what does that make the NFL? I mean, there isn't even one female NFler but plenty of female gamers. WHO IS SEXIST NOW!?! \ Also, notice, how, he just happens to be a white male. One of the few in the NFL. HAHAHA! "We are winning the culture war. There are multiple TV shows about nerds as role models. For ****’s sake, in House of Cards, Kevin Spacey plays a goddamn U.S. Representative who relaxes by playing first-person shooters!" yeah, because feminists and SJWs - whose side he supposedly is on - lotahes those type of games. That article is garbage. It explains why he only lasted 8 seasons. "I hope you all, every #Gamergater, picks up a debilitating case of genital warts." L0LZ Anti bullying. I also notice he baltantly ignores female gameing gaters. HAHA! -

Sexist and racist feminists always invent new words to absh people people 'cause they are hateful that way. If you are a woman who disagrees with them you are 'internalized misogny'. Like that's really a thing. LMAO Espicially in 2014 in the western world where you ahve access to media of all types. "The sheer magnitude of the sexism and racism on the anti-gamergate side is astounding" Not really. They have a alrge contigent of white males and they are run by feminists. The very word is sexist. -
**** coaching,. Stop defending ****!

"Darklands is an awesome, awesome game. Hope you enjoy it." The concept is awesome but the controls and actual game are simply a mess. It could have been a contender. Great character system, great ideas, crap execution.
-
"Eh. Playcalling isn't the problem-" No. When you constantly do run plays while getting only 2-3 yards per run, that's epic fail. They've chickened out and ran the ball at 3rd down and long. DUMB.

Giants need to fire their overrated trash of an offensive co-ordinator. He's way too stubborn and in extreme love with 1 or 2 yard runs. LMAO This is the second game in a row, IIRC, where the Giants had 3 runs of less than 3 yards in a row. That's stupid. He even wasted precious minutes in the fourth quarter with stupid runs - despite a QB and a pass protection that was getting the job. Eli Manning has a near 3 to 1 TD-INT rating and his best QBR ever yet the team is under .500. That's disgraceful. Poor coaching, hit or miss D, overrated running, and sloppy play. Boo! That's not to take away from Dallas as they are a great team playing well as are Philly who are doing well in spite of their QB's miscues (basically totally opposite of the Giants). 3-4. Still better than last season and we are still in but we got to get crackin'.
