  1. Yeah I agree it may initially appear to be a strange concept but imagine the potential...you could stream a movie that you could then control some of the narrative. Its sounds fun to me Yee of little faith !!! Lionsgate has much more experience around movies than Trion has so I expect something more than Defiance as far as the movie interaction is concerned ?
  2. That really made me laugh...and I'm still laughing
  3. http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2015/02/24/lionsgate-telltale-super-show/#more-272611 http://www.lionsgate.com/corporate/press-releases/1644/ I think this is very exciting news and has huge potential to create something significant Basically Lionsgate films and Telltale games will be collaborating to create some kind of new interactive media....so a hybrid of a game and movie. Similar I suppose to games like Walking Dead...but having the backing of such a talented film studio like Lionsgate only bodes well for this idea. I'll be watching this space closely
  4. Never that many..thats highly likely....remember Gfted1 this is not wealthy America but merely a new RPG from a much loved studio. We need to set realistic expectations 42 Ah ....I see..I see. I never read the Hitchhikers guide so I missed that one
  5. http://edition.cnn.com/2014/11/18/world/isis-libya/index.html http://edition.cnn.com/2015/02/16/africa/isis-libya-north-africa/index.html This is not completely new information but ISIS is becoming more emboldened in Libya. In summary ISIS has now an established presence in eastern Libya and has been committing its normal barbaric and reprehensible deeds, they recently beheaded several Egyptian Christians. But the fact is that Libya is a failed state and this type of environment is what ISIS thrives in, they have access to manpower and mineral resources like oil It may become necessary for another Western military intervention in Libya to prevent ISIS from using Libya to fund its operations in the Middle East?

  7. The Romance is good...done ..sold ....you should have said that earlier. Where do I sign-up
  8. Of course its true that you are right on most topics...and you like Romance so that just confirms it
  9. False. There is no correlation between the harshness of winter and my enjoyment of summer. It's a nice thought, but it's untrue. Keyrock you do need to try to see the positive, you could be living in the Arctic circle...don't you think the snow would be worse there?
  10. Yeah, I checked the latest pictures of Twin Elms and I think it looks very picturesque and an exciting place to have a few cold ones
  11. Nice topic Not sure....6-7 is a good number. I am more interested in meeting interesting people in the various Inns. Like Torment and that Inn where you met Ignus. I love chatting to people in Inns and getting quests not necessarily relevant to the main quest
  12. I have to be honest but I use a combination of user reviews and normal gaming website reviews. On Gamespot for example you have the user reviews which I have found to be very consistent in their accuracy around what I have found was the quality of the game. I don't see why people think youtube personalities are automatically immune to the perceived corruption and influence that permeates normal gaming journalism ? Thats why I prefer user reviews
  13. I doubt that deep southern Texas accent would be a problem, I can understand perfectly fine most of what you say when you make posts?
  14. Is it not possible that Sera's jokes are actually very intellectual and humourous but.....you just not getting them ? That may be true in some cases, despite appearances Sera is fairly well grounded and smarter than she seems. Quite a few of the jokes Sera is a part of are either immature, oh look how mad she is or Kathrine Tate style chav humour though. Don't get me wrong, it's not all bad, I love her banter with Varric for example and she does have great lines throughout the game. She's actually pretty endearing once you get her world view and see her open up a bit. But her archetype/stereotype was very much a characteristic that a lot of people were going to dislike. I like the character but I hate the chav thing, I tolerate it because like Jack once you dig past it there's more to the character. It's also worth pointing out though that Sera doesn't want people to get to know her, I think she feigns and exaggerates being bat**** crazy and annoying to a certain extent and pushes people away when prodded like a defence mechanism. It makes sense why she might act the way she does, given her past and what she's made her life's mission to be. I like this post because it gives a more positive perspective around Sera ..and its good to read this because there is clearly a lot of negativity about her character
  15. The Ninja series is an excellent idea, it would obviously be set in medieval Japan ( or whatever age Ninjas came from ) and could be all about a society of Ninjas how they operated and survived. I don't think I have ever heard of a TV series about Ninjas ?
  16. Well I can't speak for others but I know I'm too stupid to understand all these " 1's and 0's " discussions that developers have...I just want to plaaaaay the game

  18. yes I love Vikings
  19. Excellent, it'll no longer come out 2 days before PoE. I was hoping for this, actually. And before you say "but it's a different market segment!" -- remember how Dvinity:OS's success was helped by no big names releasing near it, and how the reverse was true for Wasteland 2 and (some other AAA game I can't recall). Without big name releases, the wallets are more susceptible to try something else. EDIT: The stars are aligning... Doesn't bother me at all, I am really excited about GTAV and I don't mind waiting for the final product to be as stable and entertaining as possible
  20. It always boggled my mind how you can take a rational number and keep dividing it by two inifinitely. It will get smaller and smaller forever and the universe hasn't exploded yet (or maybe that is why it's expananding at a faster and faster pace)? Alternatively, from a very old post of mine: Maybe Coffee is the mysterious dark matter that glues the universe together??? The omnipotent Gorthfucious has spoken.... and the secrets of the universe are revealed, coffee is indeed the elixir of life and the holds the key to immortality
  21. I haven't played Isolation yet but the criticisms I have read about is that you spend too much time sneaking around and avoiding Aliens than you do killing them, is this is valid ? It, uh... it was a stealth survival horror game. I don't know how "too much sneaking, not enough killing" is even a conceivable problem for such a game. I haven't played Isolation yet but the criticisms I have read about is that you spend too much time sneaking around and avoiding Aliens than you do killing them, is this is valid ? You can't kill the aliens per say, gameplay-wise the flamethrower is the only way to face the alien, and it only makes it go away. It's indeed a sneaking game overall. Plus, I don't understand how it's a bad thing unless these people expected a shooter. It's not. It's an alien game Edit : just realized tamerlane already said it all. Fair enough, thanks for the feedback

  23. Incorrect, long time ago SJW calculated the amount of information there is in existence....and it is finite
  24. Ok I see what you mean. I think there is kind of a hierarchy of importance when it comes to rpg features, and I feel PC customization is a bit more important than being able to develop a romantic relationship with a companion, so I kinda bugged when you compared these two. But yeah romances have a place in cRPGs. Some in Baldur's Gate 2 were not as cringeworthy as the recent ones EA likes to feature, but I don't think they brought anything to the character they concerned. I mean BG2 romances were nice because the concerned characters were well written, but it didn't add much to the character. I have yet to see romances that actually matter in a crpg. Choosing a race/background/class for the PC however matters more imo. Hence it's more important. Oh and don't get me wrong. Things like exciting dungeons to explore, the overall narrative and PC customization are more important than Romance IMO Romance is really just as aspect of party interaction and only about 20% of that total interaction But I am confident Obsidian will address all those things in PoE 1 so when I talk about the relevance of Romance I am talking about it in PoE 2 because by then Obsidian will be looking at how to improve the PoE franchise and I'm sure Romance will rear its indomitable head and ask " allow me to exist in PoE 2 "
