No dumb memes
Tale replied to Jasede's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
But all aspects of the game do age. Graphics, sound, combat mechanics, quest design, even the story (unless it's totally original and never gets copied). That can be charming or at least a non-issue. Now the 4th wall is a different issue, it comes down to personal taste I guess. There's a difference between becoming dated and aging. The Alien movies have aged. Max Headroom is dated.- 62 replies

lol u tk him 2da bar|? Memes are a fast evolving element of internet culture. Even the ones that don't get overused and tired quickly will become dated nontheless. And the third wall breaking is somewhat needless. I view using them similar to booger jokes, cheap attempts at a laugh from those with poorly developed humor. That criticism goes for jokes about airline peanuts, as well. I'm not opposed to all references, mind you. But I do ask for discrimination in taste.- 62 replies

This sounds like a hardware problem or something bizarre. What are the exact quotes?

What are you playing now - the plays the thing

I'm about to do something shameful. Instead of finishing Assassin's Creed 3 or doing Zone of the Enders HD, I'm going to do a Halo Marathon. :/ I am a shame to my elitism. -

A conspiracy theory without aliens, mind control, or ancient civilizations is a conspiracy theory I don't want to rave about psychotically on a street corner. -
More Sub-Forums?

Mechanics already has 1/5th the activity of General and you want to spread it out more? -
I have not played Deponia, but I hear great things about it.

What about: ? Malt liquor? What do you take me for? -

I just don't know why Microsoft can't partner up with a respectable drink company like Arizona. Or Shiner. I mean Pepsi? Are they mad?! -
I noticed that they dropped Bioware from the Command & Conquer site a few months ago. I think it was around the time they dropped Generals 2 as the title.

Suicide by adventurer
Tale replied to Death Machine Miyagi's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Lampshades have been hung and it didn't really improve the situation. I think they should just take a more reasonable approach. Maybe a couple of characters are genuinely insane. And maybe the player could recognize that and try to defuse the situation without setting them off. But for the most part, they should flee or simply not even be an encounter with that kind of disparity. I like the idea of beaning them and turning them over, as well. -
I thought it had to be 30 minutes late even back when they did do it. But my understanding is the same as Hurlshot's, that they abandoned it because of speeding delivery drivers.

Go for the Atomic Fuchsia plush shag! Do they make shag in commercial? That sounds like an untapped market.

I'm only halfway into Halo 4 and feel comfortable making a prediction for 5. That feels weird. Talking about a Halo plot. I never really thought they had plots before. Maybe it's just tickling my transhumanist fancy. -
I know fairly well what sapient means and I do not confuse it for sentience. Self-awareness and sentience are rather minor things. Your definition of wisdom is a poor one. Sapience is impossible for non-sentient creatures, even by that. As any creature too simple for sentience has no significant memory, they have merely conditioning. Sapience is what is supposed to help man stand apart. It is no common thing. It requires intelligence and judgement. By contrast, sentience merely requires the ability to perceive, a pre-condition of the other. Edit: Also, adjectives can be used as nouns. TMYK The meek shall inherit the earth.

PS3. Xbox 360 is better on framerate, but doesn't have analog buttons like the game was designed for. -
The lip sync seems off.

Would that be the original Zone of the Enders for the PS2 polished up for ps3 or something else? It's ZOE 1 and 2 for the PS3, yes. Sadly, ZOE 2 is reported to have FPS drops. -

You don't have time for that. Nanowrimo, remember? I'll probably spend 7-8 writing. Then 10-12. Which leaves a blank at 5:30-7 and 8-10 for gaming. -

Halo 4 should arrive today. My Zone of the Enders HD, as well, though it's 4 days delayed. Assassin's Creed III is failing to hold my interest, so I'll probably jump over to Halo 4 after work. -
She's a sapient, not a piece of meat! That's extra true in her case.

I remember when the Clone Wars was about clones going insane, so everyone had to fight against them. And dark side force users all exploded when they died. Good times.

Games in Heaven and Hell
Tale replied to Gyges's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
It's a classic, but it's not project eternity enough to deserve its own thread.
