Oh Walsie you are funny

Yeah, I was wrong there... Suddenly it seems very likely they were politically motivated. Also, they were originally from Kyrgystan, having later moved to Dagestan in Russia (according to what I just heard). I also said the same thing that I didn't think it had anything to do with Al-Qeada

I know this is a joke but I do think it was completely unreasonable and unfair that EA was voted as the worst American company when there are much more worse companies in the USA who have had really questionable and immoral business practices

So it seems that the suspects are Muslims from Chechnya, but that doesn't mean we are saying that all Muslims are extremists or if there motives were around political ideology, but we can discuss other facts. Chechnya has had a long and violent history with Russia and we also know that certain extremists and people prepared to commit violent acts of terrorism have come from this country. So we need to watch this space

Okay I won't claim to understand the shortfalls of Steam better than yourself as I do think it offers an excellent gaming distribution system but what do you really want from them in respect to Greenlight. They ask potential buyers to vote on the games and people do vote. Its a democracy in its most simplest form. Also whats to stop people they hire from unfairly considering a Greenlight game as good, isn't our view of a game in almost all cases going to subjective . I would think the Greenlight system, even though flawed, does offer the best way for Steam to allow indie games to be part of there system as gamers have voted for them so it carries some credibility?

Relationship/Romance Thread IV
BruceVC replied to Tigranes's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Of course i will. As i sad before, it all goes down to role play. If i had a normal character MALE (from psychical piont of view) then he will feel atracted to women. As you sad. The second thing is that the normal character will not allways killing ogres or looking for loots in dungeons. He will think about his future. And one of possible futures he have is a settle down, etc. In witcher Gerald somethimes even sad something like "Do you realy think that a mutant like me can settle down and become farmer ?" ... he know that he cant't end thats ok. But if i make my own character .. a want to be able to make more decisions about my future .. I hear you and I agree -
Relationship/Romance Thread IV
BruceVC replied to Tigranes's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
Guys as has been discussed I think we all know that there will There was a thread about sexual content in game .. the poeple reaction was "NO !" .. but as i see from this poll 302 people out of 364 want romance ... why ? I think that people have realy narrow-minded in that subject. Becouse the only (non real) type of romances they have discovered are from games like BG or BG .. NWN2 or even latest biowere romances ... I recently started to read a romances and watch some of romance anime (but not those stupid ones) and i jumped to a simple conclusion ... I did not seen any type of sexual behavior (beside kissing or wake up next someone) why ? Mayby becouse the whole idea in romances or "love stories" in not so much for ego like "oh you awsome" (in most anime they do even oppisite) or sex sxenes .. but some king of "Happy life" ending .. For example "The hero who save the villidge, now lives happly with his new wife and his old friends, now he is playing with his son, and somethimes even forgets the horrible experiencec from past etc etc" ... The problem with most characters form role playing side is that the most of them "at least those who have some brain" will not be adventurer whole life .. so besiacly some day most of characters will want to settle ... and live somewhere get old etc ... And i think now that romances or love in games, films etc ... are not so much for ego but for some kind of promise that your character will live happly and you don't waste your efforts ... For example how whoud you feel .. when you win the and ..you wake up ! (you discover that you where deaming whole time) ? how whoud you feel if you kill the arch-evil .. but then whole bulding colapse on you and you and your whole party are dead and you didn't save the "World" ? It's ok if it's optional but not if its the only possibility .. From role playing side .. forceing someone (who made his own character) in romance .. is as bad as .. forceing someone (who made his own character) in not having romance ... By the way ... is there are any news about this subiect ? The reason why the majority of the community want Romance\Sex in the game is because it adds realism and makes your RPG experience more immersive. Think about it for a second, you have this party that is trying to save the world from this ancient evil and you will be facing countless challengers in your journey. You then have this really attractive Viconia lookalike that is a part of your party, do you really think that you are not going to initiate some kind of relationship with them around the campfire through the hundreds of lonely nights spent together? -
Yeah, okay I see what you saying

You should realize when the FBI releases a video publicly about "people of interest" around such a high profile investigation I can guarantee you that there is an excellent reason, I am confident these are the suspects involved. I did see that they don't seem to be of any Arabic descent so its looks like this bombing is more a right wing plot than Al-Qeada affiliated, which is what many people have suspected due to the relatively amateurish way the whole bombing was implemented

I hear you but how much investment is it really to get a game sanctioned on Greenlight? They basically listen to the votes by the community and then let Steam become the distribution mechanism, or am I missing something around hidden cost?

For me this is a way that Steam is just giving something back to the community and supposed fans of the games on Greenlight, they don't need to do this as some of these games are rubbish. Its almost altruistic but not quite as it does garner attention and marketing for Steam

The ones that got me were when I realized I was older than a lot of pro athletes, as well as when I realized I had lived more years without a brother than with one. Alan do you think you've reached the point in your life where you realize you aren't going to be an astronaut, or is this something you still aspire to? LOL. I was just thinking about this yesterday, talking about the one way Mars trips. Good news is I decided that I kind of enjoy here, and some other bloke can do this one. Don't go to Mars Walsie plzzzzz...you will be missed on earth far too much

Its interesting, as a software consultant I can only ever make certain changes after-hours. The actual time will vary as certain customers has different times for change control. One of them only allows you to work at 11 pm on a Saturday night which is frustrating as with proper internal communication there is no reason the work I have to do can't be done on a Saturday afternoon.

But why won't they let you work at night? Are they concerned about the safety of the people who have to be with you

I have to be honest I don't understand how anyone who reads fantasy can say they couldn't get into the Game of Thrones books , I have convinced people who don't even read fantasy to read the books and they are now addicted to them. They really are the best fantasy series I have ever read and they are vastly superior to the TV series, as books tend to be. And for the record the TV series is excellent but the books offer a much more complex and nuanced view of the Game of Thrones world, you also get to understand and identify with the characters in a much more personal level than the TV series. But I am glad people are enjoying the TV series
