  1. No, notice his/her signature "Lord of Lords", put that together with the style of prose that indicates that English is possibly not their first language and that they've made two inane threads about some deeply shallow concepts...It's LoF's new alter.
  2. Look, you seem to be either enthusiastic or a troll because your ideas don't come across through your wording. Here's a tip: you could have the best game idea ever and if you're unable to communicate the right way no one will be able to "get" it. Mainly, what I get from your post is a random assortment of ideas that have little cohesion and can't be rightly be called a system. Also I still don't see the purpose of this thread; although I get the feeling that you might be someone's avatar and this is just a troll attempt (or English isn't obviously your first language). Either way, please tell us what you hoped to accomplish by making this thread. Disregard of this last request will be interpreted as if you where a troll and I will cease any interaction.
  3. I've been getting drunk as well, but I'm afraid I have a better taste in music. You obviously don't get it; this ain't about joy its about self torment.
  4. Ahh, humor is such an excellent way of coping with this news. Meanwhile I've been getting drunk and listening to Enya.
  5. One small step for mankind...
  6. Did you consult the heavens to come up with that answer? I pointed out a very obvious false equivalence. Whereas I pointed out an clear example of a field where you don't need to be an expert in to realize that its bogus.
  7. This will be hard to believe but I say the following without any animosity: Your post is too pretentious and egotistical, there isn't any room for discussion since you're so into your idea (self) that you forgot to share it. I don't know what you expect us to discuss, but I just know that you seem to be someone who thinks that he/she had an original thought and its just waiting to realize that someone else had the same idea a long time before them. (There ain't nothing new under the sun) Please clarify your intent in making this thread and give us a topic of discussion instead of a dissertation.
  8. Free day, grilled some beef and i'm getting saucered with Scotch...realize that the "What you did Today" thread is getting a little low. Not a lot happening?
  9. Let's not speculate, although I doubt that Avellone being an industry veteran would be unable to deal with cuts. But everyone seems ready to cast Sawyer as an SJW and salvage Avellone just because of that incident with PoE.
  10. 2.5D or 2 and a half D. Basically fake 2D.
  11. Developing is far harder, well, if you want to do it right anyway Patching can be pretty easy and low effort, particularly with this shallow context. Patching is easy if you're lazy and don't care if take a tangled mess and add another one on top of it. But it becomes near impossible to untangle the whole thing and fix it.
  12. Actually I would say that developing is more time consuming and patching is harder.
  13. Dunning-Kruger strikes again. Did you consult the heavens to come up with that answer?
  14. Who is the best feminist scholar? Twilight Sparkle I have no idea, but I sure as hell have a strong candidate for who isn't Boo Come on now, trust your instincts. For example, when someone says "left scholar", i say Noam Chomsky. When i say "Gender pay gap/feminist scholar" you say....? I don't say anything, because I'm studying medicine, not gender studies, therefore I lack the kind of insight into the field that would let me make such judgments. There is value in acknowledging the limits of one's knowledge. I haven't studied Astrology but i'm pretty certain that its bogus.
  15. Yes, they can. Should they be forced to?
  16. Right-wing propaganda does tend to inflict an unfortunate burning sensation upon contact, not unlike holy water, but I wouldn't exactly call it "truth". So you believe that the wage gap exists despite clear evidence to contrary?
  17. What handicap is that? The only games of gwent I lost were when I had really crappy cards. As soon as I started finding/buying/winning some hero cards, as well as special cards, I was unstoppable. NPCs have already a good deck but I'm still trying to find how to build one, I buy a whole bunch of cards but merchants don't seem to carry more than 5 and from different decks. So at this point of the game I'm still playing with the damn temerians because I haven't been able to build a proper deck. I stuck with the Temerian set because they seemed to be more plentiful. I'm done the game, and still don't have complete sets of the other factions. Best way to build a strong deck is to play against those players who will play for special cards (it's given as a quest), starting with the Baron in Velen and he'll have a list of other players who also will play for special cards. That's how I got started with finding strong enough cards to compete with the better players. You don't seem to get that in order to beat the strong players you need a better deck which is the sole purpose of beating them in the first place. There is no upward scale just a bunch of random spikes. The worst part is that this could all has an easy fix, sell basic deck in the game aside from individual cards. You know, like in RL. Also, **** whomever came up with the leveling up system. I've seen bad talent trees, I've seen bad games that level you into competence but restricting your abilities to slots that unlock upon reaching a level and then only giving you 9 slots. It's like the guy that designed it just decided to say "**** your choice, you're either a warrior a mage or a mutant", for a game with just one hybrid class it shouldn't really be that restrictive. It was easily fixed in previous games by just modding the amount of talent points but the skill slots really put a damper on that. I did largely the same as Mr Anakin with Gwent and i'm sorry to say rarely faced a challenge, especially when using the Nilfgaardian deck, which quickly became my favourite. However on your second point i'm in total agreement, it's just an arbitrary restriction and really isn't consistent, I mean Geralt's been doing this Witcher thing for a century or so now (though that's argued over) and should know his arse from his elbow to put it crassly. Edit: Never mind being reset to level one twice over now! The thing is that I can't seem to manage to build good deck, I find Gwent to be the best of the minigames in the series but the lack of cards seems to be keeping off it. I know that I've moved on and now I'm having trouble backtracking to the point where I'm supposedly meant to be at but I'm even having trouble with that one. I've played merchants who don't seem to give any cards and the only ones that do seem to be beyond my current level. I find it frustrating that I get special cards for other decks and my most complete deck languishes from a lack of any special cards. The problem with the amount of base cards remains, it shouldn't be so difficult to build a common deck.

  20. **** Gwent and **** any stupid game where the NPC gets a handicap.
  21. Yeah, but I feel like the guy that made it so potions could only be drank in meditation in W2 had a hand in making sure that oils cannot be used in combat in W3. They're pretty much useless if you don't know what you're facing or if you get surprise. Luckily they're most likely necrophages.
  22. Being no One Really interesting book on epistemology, I can now say that i'm a nihilist and that's ok because no one exists.
  23. Some of it reminds me of Extreme Ops. I enjoyed Extreme Ops in that way you like ridiculous movies like XXX or its sequels, a lot of flash but no substance. I just oppose remakes of popular IPs on the grounds that i'm still not ****ing 30 and I shouldn't have to be nagging about how things used to be better.
  24. Even if God made the midichlorians, God put them in Jesus and made the midichlorians work through his divine powers its...science? Yes, if you can scientifically explain how a deity works then it isn't divine. It's in the book of "Undisclosed rules everyone obeys nonetheless".
