  1. http://www.gog.com/game/majesty_gold_hd Majesty is on GOG, neat. Also other Paradox games as well like EU, Victoria.
  2. Get a second opinion maybe ?
  3. What else is new. Reading Walker's tweets about this were pretty funny as well. "I know that some people aren't going to like the interview. But the rules change when it's the players' money being messed with." was the best one.
  4. That's just cause they frown on married cousins in the city.
  5. "Their feelings are more important to you than your freedom to use certain words" No they're not.
  6. Build is postponed for a while, hm, means I might not have a rig suitable to play GTA5 or Witcher 3 on, when they release. Shazbot.
  7. They are easy to deal with really, most of the time I read of people whining about them it is either due to a really thin skin or just melodrama. How am I lacking empathy ? It's still a bad thing to say to people, I've not said it is good to use - just that racist words are, for a non-trivial amount of instances, another stone to sling at people. Granted it's a bit heavier than calling someone a 'douchebag'.
  8. That thread also had issues with negativity on Obsidian sucking at developing or some other stuff rather than Offensive Things that the female developer felt driven off by, heh. Unless you want to consider stuff against a company politically incorrect, though. Still not convinced mass people are being driven off, and if that is even a problem in most cases - rather laughable what people get upset over (the micro-aggressions are truly the curse of our times). Racism as an ideology marginalized ? Sure thing. But even you've now shifted the definition, it's still just a word to cudgel you with some times.
  9. I would have started it with "What will it take for you to leave the industry forever?"
  10. If you define "boring" by "not populated by libertarian-leaning straight white men to the point of almost-exclusivity because everybody else finds it an unwelcoming environment", then yeah, sure, sign me up for boring. We need more boring. You've polled the race and political leanings of this forum ? What exactly are you whining about here - was there some drive to purge the place of blacks or communists or gays ? Funnily enough I don't think anyone's defined it. What is it to you then and how does that "benefit us all" (amazing how propagandist that saying is, heh)
  11. Wait, so if someone is being racist for the sole purpose of angering people, it's not racist? Even though, logically, the people most likely to be angered by said display of racism are members of the race in question? That's some shaky logic there, methinks. Not really, it's just some one throwing a larger bomb than calling them an **** or insulting them some other way. Are just words to bludgeon people with, after all. Racism is a lot more than just saying some words which is just being rude.
  12. $400k would get you 400 sq feet here I think, in a decent area you aren't doomed to drive everywhere in, anyway.
  13. Shirty sure would like this forum to be a boring place.
  14. Lots of D3, new season started
  15. I tormented an OCD coworker by moving his monitor and phone a couple of inches to the left or right before he got in. Got a good laugh out his ranting at the janitors for touching his stuff for a couple of days.
  16. Should have rifled through everyone's desks for good stuff to steal. Off work today, so I did cleaning. Also having a good snigger at the moderation of this forum today.
  17. It is like the attempts at burns you get in CS in 99. That is the true tragedy of GG - poor insults.
  18. http://forums.cdprojektred.com/threads/33354-Interviews-and-Articles-2015?p=1542435&viewfull=1#post1542435 There are many different types of additional weapons to pick up, many of which unlock at higher levels. Weapons (including swords) will not last forever and can be destroyed if used too frequently or heavily; you will need to regularly visit a craftsman in order to maintain them. The HUD is very customizable. There are several options available, including turning off the mini-map and all sorts of notifications. All graphical settings are present in the in-game menu. Enemies will parry crossbow bolts with shields. The game’s skill tree is massive. There are four or five trees, each having five tiers divided into five skills. Every skill has three or four levels to unlock. Even though Geralt will gain more skill points per level later in the game, it’ll still be impossible to unlock everything. After unlocking skills, they must be activated. This is done by placing them in a separate tree, which contains a limited number of slots. Activated skills affect Geralt’s fighting style, and activating a set of skills from the same category will increase its overall effects. It adds another layer to preparations and tactical planning, as players have to choose an appropriate set of active skills depending on what kind of opponent you are going to face (for example, with heavily armored knights, you can activate the Igni upgrade that allows you to melt armors). There are four slots for mutagens, which also affect your abilities. Temporary companions are quite helpful and even use different fighting styles. For example, one woman that accompanied one playthrough waited for the right moment while enemies were focused on Geralt to stab them in the back for considerable damage. The game is “pretty difficult”, and you can die frequently even on easy if you’re not careful. With regards to dynamic weather: there will be snow, different phases of day/night, different stages of cloudiness, storms, a few types of rain and even a morning mist. The enemy AI is “really good”. Wolves and bandits spread to cut off all of Geralt’s escape routes. If you kill their respective leaders, they end up completely disorganized. One enemy can use himself as bait to give the rest of his squad a chance to put Geralt in a corner. If you set up a trap or Yrden sign in front of the enemy, they will actively avoid it. NPC models are very diverse and the interior of every hut looks different

  20. Eh, I dunno about small. Walker decided to go on a rant on them not being silenced by...uh...some people or something as they speak out on social justice issues. Entertaining interview, but have to feel this was just them being a little late to the dogpile. But by all means, keep shilling for RPS.
  21. This romantic stuff is weird.
  22. Sure you can ignore it. Just have a backbone
  23. Just that sanctions, providing material assistance to Ukraine and a lot of rhetoric (granted seems to be Canada yapping the most out of all) doesn't seem like much more is needed to come across as 'provocation'. Now I'm sure I'll get a response that is just 'justice' or some permutation thereof.
  24. Hah, that Chipman **** got sacked ? Shame he'll just on the virtual street corner of Patreon and get $10k a month.
