The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [2015]
Find it funny you can fight lvl 9 bandits then down the road there is a lvl 25 griffin. Just tidying up contracts here and there, those quests are pretty neat.

Journalism and Bias in the Gaming Industry
No ****, that's because the circumstances of Muslims is in no way comparable to that of gamers. Muslim's exist in a culture of islamophobia where they can be subject to state sanctioned harassment, detainment and murder. Articles demanding an "end to muslims" in such a culture would not be tongue-in-cheek or mere hyperbole but instead contribute to the actually existing violent status quo. You cannot simply replace one group with another and treat it as if the implications are exactly the same. That said, who the **** cares that some random websites wrote some melodramatic articles on 'gamers'. I've been playing games all my life and quite frankly couldn't give a ****. Until we live in a world where employers are not hiring gamers, people are running around murdering gamers or the state itself has "declared war on gamers" you are just another tumblr generation kiddie desperate to be "oppressed". If we cannot change games journalism, then we might as well give up on everything. Explain. Compared to all other injustices that exists in the world, ethics in games journalism is quite a small thing in the grander schemes of things. But if this fails, how can people possibly be able to overcome anything bigger? But GamerGate has already won, so i am optimistic about the future. Just remind me again, what has GG achieved in the last 9 months? And I'm not being condescending, I want to see how you guys see the success of the movement Why do you ask ? Is there a deadline for it to achieve something? And if it inevitably falls short of the bar in your head, what is your suggestion? It has at least made talk of social justice issues, heh, in gaming a bit more in the forefront. Perhaps.

Everything's Great - An anti-whinge Part 1
A cynical reaction to it would be that the laws spawned to fight it and the wars launched over it are just a cover for government overreach or just money for the war industry. Or at least I would guess so.

Canadian Federal Election 2015
I kind of want to see how the NDP would do, but with a minority government (best kind in our system)

Everything's Great - An anti-whinge Part 1
You seem to confuse it with an extreme pessimist, here. Isn't being a cynic just being distrustful of others actions and so on? Besides it can be amusing to assail people's dreams and world view Given the posts about terrorists, war and suspicious government laws I am not too sure people raising those are cynical or immature for doing so.

Sad. Now homosexuals get to experience the misery of marriage.

The fight against that Aen Elle dude with Keria gave me WoW flashbacks, have to burn through his healing phase.

Well, peasants are also f**king stupid. Finding a lot of armour repair kits, but not weapon ones. Will be hard finding a repair guy in the wasteland that is Velen, maybe I should go to Novigrad and see what's there.- Journalism and Bias in the Gaming Industry
Is also a bad place for proper flaming too, just ends in boring sarcasm. But it is a very handy platform for figuring out why a road is closed, what left all that blood or what that smoke in the distance is, in my experience.- What you did today
Get the girl to come to the UK for a bit ? But if your mom wants you to be around for Christmas, shift the date to January or so and get her to agree to that, perhaps ?- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [2015]
Hah, wandering around Velen ran into a quest for lvl 33. I wonder if I missed a lot in White Orchard - am only 4.5. Rolled back drivers and that seems to have alleviated my crashing issue, so can play a lot longer now.- Journalism and Bias in the Gaming Industry
Well, Gamergate sure gave people something to blog about, that's one plus.- Witcher 3 - The women actually look like women.
Off the top of my head I think they had 4, important NPCs had their own. Smaller studio at that time, no ?- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [2015]
Patch in the next week or so - http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2015-05-19-cd-projekt-red-tackles-the-witcher-3-graphics-downgrade-issue-head-on Also having my Nvidia driver crash while playing, very annoying.- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [2015]
Well Velen sure has a lot to do, that I am way too low level for at 4.- What are you playing now?
I think I got 350xp from one side quest helping the girl attacked by the griffin. Tempted to knock off all the '?' on the map but yeah, could do with XP for offing these monsters I find out there or restoring sites (that's a decent feature). Might also get some ingredients to make some potions, right now can make diddly squat.- The Funny Things thread

Well the lock on ability is nice. Heavy attack defaulted to RMB would have made a bit more sense, but otherwise yeah it's not really super fluid. Only played a little bit last night, wandered around and freed up some sites. Also got my ass handed to me by some ghouls, but I guess that was just due to me playing ballsy rather than Rollin Rollin.- The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt [2015]
