My grandma passed away earlier this year and there were people that put up messages about it on Facebook shortly after and it made me unhappy. I didn't ask anybody to remove their posts, but I knew that that's how some of the family would know of her death. Not the best way to learn about a beloved ones death. We were making calls to close ones to tell them personally, we didn't think it was something you shared on social media so fast. That's basically my only argument against posting something like that on social media.

I have no clue how this will work, but I'm guessing that we can spare the lives of some antagonists without sending them to prison. Maybe you don't fight them at all thanks to high social skills.

I'd hire Prosper and make him lead game designer.

Fulfillment site will go live once they can let higher tier backers get enough world/lore info to fill in info about their NPCs/Items/Inns.

Ted was fun. Watched Django Unchained and came to the conclusion that I'd have been better off going to sleep instead.

Playing Dragon Age reminded me of the Summoner games. Still need to complete my Summoner 2 run. I also have Anachronox in my backlog.

Playing Septerra Core. Had I not been used to slow battle systems, I might have ripped off my own chest hair in despair. Other than that, I think the game is okay. Reached Shell 3 so far.

Used the barbecue for the last time this year. We decided to go all out and had sausages, kebab, chicken fillet, fillet of pork and grilled vegetables. Three types of salads were made and some unhealthy potato salad. Served with cold Coca Cola and beers, it was a nice day. I might work out in 4 hours, and probably spend most of the day playing games and watching movies.

I shall stalk on twitter.

Darksiders II is beaten. I liked it enough to want a sequel, but it did have some pacing issues. I don't mind long games, however, this one kept giving me these do this x3 objectives over and over again.

I don't back any projects if I don't know what they have previously done. I know this might not be how other people do it and it might not be how crowd-funding is meant to be, but if their game is good, I'll buy it post-release. I don't feel like taking chances and suddenly find out that I supported a scammer.

I dunno, man. That horse looks pretty angry, for some reason. Has a smug face, imo.

I seriously hope that. If nothing else, getting both a house and then a stronghold in Act 1 would be sort of silly. Getting the house after you already have a stronghold would be equally silly. This needs to be clarified because there are two stretch goals with different things. From this update today, it appears the player house is the stronghold. I always took it as two different things. Now that I read update 20 again, it can be read two ways. It appears the player house has been upgraded to a stronghold. I thought we all got a player house and if some people wanted to play a stronghold, the game gave you that option. Seems I read it incorrectly. I always thought that $2.0 million meant a player house but if they reached $3.0 million, that would be upgraded to a stronghold. I could be wrong. I like the ideas that are being suggested. It could be very fun and add replay value. It would be interesting to see all the encounters if you actually ignore to focus on the stronghold. It is good that if you bother to invest in your stronghold, you will get different bonuses. It gives the player some incentive to actually care about this even if you don't really have a great interest in upgrading your home base. When your companions come back from different adventures, it would be great if they told you about them. It wouldn't have to be super detailed, but they could just mention some stuff that went wrong, something unexpected that happened or tell you a story about some crazy beast they had to slay. Maybe if they go on enough adventures, the get some feats or something else that those in your party don't get.

Gave up on Mafia II after dying almost 30 times at the same spot. Further proof that I suck at shooters more than ever.

Also ate pizza, but not from any big evil franchise. Ate at my local pizzeria where they prepare everything themselves and know exactly how I want my favorite pizza.

We're top of the league! Spurs spent over £100m and it didn't show.

Watched another video that had a few more minutes of gameplay. Graphically, it looks good, but I have yet to see any real tactical combat. It was nice to see when he switched to tactical view and puse the game.

Finally a party member joins me in Ni No Kuni! A shame the AI is terrible! Despite the AI issue, I'm having a lot of fun. The kids actually have good voice acting, music is good and visuals are mostly stunning. Battles get a bit repetitive but the game also has the Pokemon effect on me, I want to collect all the familiars and there are 250 of them. It isn't a perfect game, but as long as it's actually fun to play, I'll keep going. To switch things up, I'll start playing Tales of Xillia that I got when it released.

Unlike DA2, I think I will pick this up. The first impression I got from a 14 minute long presentation video was good. I'm thinking about this as Fantasy Effect even if the comparison is wrong. I'll play this as an arpg and enjoy it that way. If what they say about no level scaling, concequences of your choices having an impact on the world and tactical view being in, I'll be happy enough. Most importantly is that the first footage shown to the public didn't look like crap. Edit: I won't lie, I'm very happy about the tactical view.

Finding the footage is easy enough if you search on the net.

Reached chapter 12 in Mafia II. I like the actual gameplay and the story is okay but the city is very boring to explore. I just do the main missions and don't bother with anything else. I've only killed 10 civilians with a car and I blame that on the cops for bumping into my car in chases. I haven't bothered with the wanted posters (found zero) and found about 10 PB magazines but they're just the ones that are in main story missions.

Was ready to explode at work today. The kid I've been working with for the last year has finally started to do the work he is supposed to do with a little less whining and fewer cases of him totally losing control. Today, when I got to work, I learn that the other two people that have any say in how we handle his situation made some changes without me knowing. What happened? The kid freaked out. It feels like a whole year went down the drain because we're basically back to square one. We are not completely in agreement about how to handle this, but they've been working with kids for more years than I have lived (probably) and they both actually are educated in this field. They pamper him too much. I let him do fun stuff, but only after we've agreed to do the school stuff first. It's a good thing my scalp is bald at the moment or I might have ripped it off in frustration. I do still have the chest hair...

Wasteland 2 Prison Level Demo. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sdmGthYqTbo I'm liking what I'm seeing.

I'll send you my bank account numbers soon. Expecting the money to be wired tomorrow.

First gameplay footage seen from South Park: The Stick of Truth. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSefQnHi-S8&feature=youtu.be Was mentioned in other threads but deserves its own.
