  1. I'm playing "Of Orcs and Men" now, the story, characterization, writing and voice acting are all really good. The combat is kind of like KOTOR without force powers, so not very deep, although it does have a couple of wrinkles, and the game is more combat heavy than I prefer in an RPG, but having a lot of fun nevertheless. The combat starts to shine once it really becomes do or die, I don't know how far you gotten but in my experience I coasted through a lot of encounters by spamming or without any thought. That changes drastically after you start fighting the soldiers.
  2. Don't worry I don't have back problems, my rheumatoid arthritis only gets me on my knees and wrists which makes a hell of a combo with carpal tunnel. Back's fine though.
  3. Liked it, would watch sequel. Also Keanu is an underrated actor, everyone seems to still be hung up on Ted and Billy.
  4. Has the West blocked travel to the area?
  5. Whenever people try to shame others into laying off Islam is going to backfire, because Islam isn't unified because they haven't decide on main body or interpretation that will be the accepted religion of Islam. Even on the wake of these attacks and previous ones, so while they sit on complacency the radical view of Islam is as valid as the moderate one and silent consent does affect public opinion. On the wake of the horror of these attacks the worst thing you can do is excuse yourself, it's a moment of absolutist drive towards a singular goal of exterminating the cause. Which considering the years that have gone by and the situation hasn't changed, are completely justified. BTW, I'm drunk plz feel free to disregard this post.
  6. What have you played? What games do you like? Give us something to go on.
  7. Today was my first mum birthday, I had some fun. Met a whole bunch of people that remember me from when I was a little tyke; but more importantly, I'm inebriated enough that i'm having trouble writing this. Anyways, Happy Birthday mum!
  8. Enemy combatants still have rights. I trust you know this? And yeah, it's always a good idea to start allowing the man to decide whose rights can be waived and under which circumstances. Because that has never led to bad things in the past. It's not like they try and do it under the table already, so what harm could it possibly do if it was done openly? What a dreadful world you must live in, where man is so violent that he must be prevented by governments from doing evil. Actually I don't think terrorist actually have rights under the Geneva convention as they don't have a nation and breach the convention in many cases. They do. Thought it's arguable those rights are recognized under one of the other Geneva treaties. That they don't is a misconception believed by many that was perpetrated by the very people who wanted to deny 'enemy combatants' of their rights in the first place. Before 'terrorists' were blamed for most of the evil events in the world, 'anarchists' were. If there's a group of people or ideology out there who truly don't have a nation, it is anarchists. And at the time of the Geneva convention anarchists were the more common boogymen of the day. No nation I'm aware of ever tried to deny an anarchist(s) charged with some evil deed(s) their basic human or legal rights by classifying them as some imagined sect of people that are somehow magically outside the realm of the basics that everyone else is privy to. Anyways, who is to say so and so doesn't have a nation they are fighting for? Why should that even matter? No matter who it is, and no matter what they are charged with they should be given a jury trial within a reasonable timeframe, and then acquitted or sentenced accordingly. To do otherwise is evil. Regardless, at the end of the day it's not uncommon for many nations (including the U.S.) violate the Geneva convention on many levels other than what happens in Guantanamo Bay. Like many other things of it's nature (like the ICC) it's rules are generally only applied to nations and people on the non-western side conflict X. It's a do as I say not as I do kind of thing. I thought that the Guantanamo cases were human rights violations not the Geneva convention. AFIK the Geneva is only for countries that have signed the treaty, you're only covered if your nation is part of it.

    I Quit

    Not having that many games to play has been sort of a blessing, I've been able to focus on my work and I've improved a lot. It has also allowed me to play some old gems that have passed me by or were before my time.
  14. I have not bought a new BioWare game since Mass Effect on Xbox 360, (which I did not complete because my Xbox 360 broke.) However, I recently checked out some Let's Play videos of Dragon Age: Inquisition on YouTube. I have to say, the writings were quite awful. The character animations (body movements and facial expressions) in Dragon Age: Inquisition were also horrible, which was surprising, given that BioWare had so much better character animations in the Mass Effect series. They have spikes where the animations go really low and then go back up to something acceptable and it is the same for a lot other things. Maybe there was a lack balanced talent on the art department.
  15. Which one?
  16. I think not, I read that they passed a law to prosecute people criticizing immigration.
  17. He didn't say that, he said that people who call them conspiracy theories/conspiracy theorist and dismisss them out of hand are. That's because of a conspiracy to dismiss conspiracy theorists.
  18. Which demographic commits the most crime in Sweden? Or Norway? You'll have to ask the Swedes. https://themuslimissue.wordpress.com/2012/08/20/the-living-hell-for-swedish-women-5-muslims-commit-nearly-77-6-of-all-rape-crimes/ I don't think they spoke in length about the rise in rapes (our resident Swedes) I'm curious to whether the statistics are accurate or if reports have been inflated by more women reporting rapes for made up things like "stare rape". Sweden does seem to have higher than usual number of feminist some are bound to be radical and have a wider perception of what constitutes rape.I couldn't read the study as it was in Swedish but the article didn't mention how many of these where reported rapes vs. prosecuted rapes. I guess I'm still waiting for an answer on that.

  20. I think this post should go in the weird things thread
  21. As it was pointed on a different thread, the situation in Sweden has been exaggerated and the 55 'No-Go' zones are not hotspots of an anarchic dystopia.
  22. Gibson plz go away.
  23. Did you spend a lot of time coming up with those?
  24. Here's some more. What programs did you use? Zbrush.
  25. Thank you, everybody. @TrueNeutral; you ask too many questions.
