  1. Do you guys have any examples, in the last 10 years, of where Microsoft has bought a gaming studio and its got worse? For example since they acquired Bethesda things seem fine and I dont see any problems with any Bethesda anticipated games Microsoft nowadays respects the independence of gaming companies they purchase unless the company is running at a loss in which case they will intervene to fix things So I dont get all these negativity about this development, its much worse on Codex with people really upset and venting. So you guys are more reasonable with your concerns
  2. This is huge news, well done Microsoft
  3. I think its ridiculous to sue Lego for something that is so inconsequential. Lets get real for a moment, its a tiny representation of a jacket on a tiny lego toy. I hope Lego fights this in court for years
  4. Is this is a condition you have always suffered from or has it got worse the older you get and what games can you play if any, do you know what caused it ? Sorry for all the questions, I am always interested in these types of ailments and if they physiological or is it more a mental problem like something caused by stress( thats just an example )
  5. Geez Barti you must stop downloading so much porn....then you wouldnt need so such space
  6. Its time you played the Witcher games, I can suggest some effective medication for your vertigo if you concerned ? They really are a superlative series of games
  7. Yeah, its well known that most people from the Baltic states hate Star Wars ....its something to do with the Cold War and the Reagan missile defense system. So dont take it personally and want a divorce https://atomicarchive.com/history/cold-war/page-20.html
  8. Here is an informative and interesting video of the scope and support of Adult games, you can watch it directly on Youtube
  9. https://www.thefashionlaw.com/lego-name-in-copyright-lawsuit-over-leather-jacket-design/ @Gorth Gorthfuscious I am shocked and disappointed by this latest criminality committed by Denmark, I cannot believe you Nordic people are so dismissive of IP and copyright laws? I dont know what is worse, this callous infringement or the massive NZ KFC chicken smuggling syndicate that was exposed ? ( @Zoraptor I didnt notice you acknowledging this moral decay in your country ? )
  10. I have never watched Red Dwarf before, I must sometime because I enjoy British comedy like Fawlty Towers and Monty Python
  11. I have to concur, nothing excites me as much as discounts on games I like
  12. God of War for PC is available, I know this is something all of us can get excited about
  13. I had never heard of this game before so I looked it up on GOG and it looks very promising. I like Pirate games, Risen was very entertaining
  14. Nah, Im sure you frequent redtube so Im confident you will be fine
  15. You know Melkie I am one of those people who if someone says " dont look now but guess who walked in " I always immediately turn around to look Anyway I went to that unknown tfgamessite and I was impressed by what I read and saw, very interesting
  16. I completed Bards Tale Trilogy, game 1, after 70 hours. It was great fun and my first real CRPG I have ever played. I had to get use to the various gaming mechanics like prudent combat strategies, I learnt when to defend and when to use items, and being able to teleport quickly back to Skara Brae for healing( walking all the time can be tiresome ). And I can see how BT1 really was the precursor to future hard puzzles and interesting dungeon level design and how to progress to deeper levels This game gets a well deserved 65\100 on the globally endorsed " BruceVC game rating system " and I look forward to playing BT2&3
  17. I havent played PoE yet so I cant comment, I just know its easy to end Bioware Romance arcs in about 30 seconds. Because you just say " no " in the dialogue options and your party members dont re-initiate the Romance unless you do, as far as I remember, but the point being its not intrusive
  18. Melkie you know Romance arcs in RPG are the same as all components in RPG, they not suppose to be same as RL or the things we do in RL? You use your imagination and RP the various outcomes and developments but its never going to be like Gone with the Wind and other real Romance stories Also I am always interested in the criticism that they intrusive and distracting, can you give examples in any game how optional Romance arcs are truly intrusive? Because I generally always explore Romance arcs, if I like the Romance options, in all games and if I think of Bioware games where you have straight and LGBT options it was easy to shutdown the unwanted attention from the gay wizard in my party because the first time he flirted with me I just said something like " I would prefer to be friends " and he never flirted with me again So my question to you and others is " how can the inclusion of optional Romance arcs really be a problem when they so easy to avoid or not to participate in " ?
  19. https://fareedzakaria.com/columns/2022/1/14/politics-is-trumping-economics-it-might-end-badly Here is an excellent read how politics, or rather ideology, is ostensibly becoming more important than the economic reality in many countries like China, Turkey and Chile
  20. I thought one of your NY resolutions was to not call me a fascist? You not doing very well
  21. No you must watch it to the end, the moralizing is part of the narrative and it doesnt detract from the whole series . Very unexpected ending and very worthwhile You not the only one to complain about the " preaching " but its part of the story
  22. Yes but lets not get distracted by people sitting in detention centres, we not talking about the Oz immigration system as much as the fact this is suppose to be about the virus and the overall Oz pandemic reality and the risk of an unvaccinated person playing at the tennis You guys are 90% double vaccinated by your latest statistics, the chance of Novak spreading the virus and or creating a variant is very remote. Dont you think banning celebrities should be made on the actual medical risk and not be about politics and pandering to angry and frustrated citizens in any country? https://www.health.gov.au/resources/publications/covid-19-vaccine-rollout-update-16-january-2022
  23. Sunday is one of my best days due to various reasons that include English Breakfast time, today Im cooking eggs, potatoes rosti, bacon, mutton sausage and toast
  24. You allowed to change your opinion, you can feel the treatment Novak experienced by the Oz authorities was selective and unfair? And he may not be deported, final appeal today ? https://news.yahoo.com/novak-djokovic-news-live-tennis-081441508.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall
  25. I think school children will be fine missing out on this one, dont get me wrong it looks amazing but Im confident the school will find other books to help educate those young minds
