The funny things thread part 3
It's this sort thing that makes me wary of any cooking by an anglophone.

A-Levels results are out
Here in Portugal the difficulty of exams and the school curriculum have been drastically reduced and simplified in the past 3 decades, in order to improve final grades. Nevertheless, grades keep falling anyway, with students showing time and again, that there are no depths to their ignorance and stupidity.

Random video game news.
To protect against backstabbers, obviously.

Random video game news.
That's just silly. They are consciously breaking the game's gameplay in order to provide better graphics? What?

Deus Ex 3
I'm guessing publishers get paid more by mainland European retailers than by UK retailers, considering European retailers charge much more for games.

Deus Ex 3
So allowing a client to buy a product but forbidding the same client from using it is legal?

Deus Ex 3
That region lock is how to make sure I don't buy a game. Also, this strikes me as illegal within the EU. The EU is supposed to be an open market.

What are you playing now?
I finished DS3 with Anjali. I think I'm going to play through with Katarina now. Despite my huge backlog.

Favorite cities
If you love museums and beauty try Florence. London is also an excellent choice for Museum lovers. Try Budapest, Stockholm, and Rome as well.

What would you like to see in a Dungeon Siege IV?
Explain to me how Fall from Heavens and Vanguard's Strike play the same. Or how using Shield Pummel is the same as using Aura of Immolation. Not to mention that each character allows for different play styles. With Anjali I started by playing almost exclusively with ranged, single enemy attacks, staying away from the melee, while right now, I'm mostly using the melee stance and area attacks.

That's glossing over the differences. Playing with Anjali makes for a markedly different gameplay experience from playing with Lucas. The different abilities really force you to act differently. It isn't just bash attack and periodically heal until they're dead.

They're just saying that Ubisoft DRM reduced piracy. They are not saying it increased sales.

New Game+?
This just in: Bloodlines, Witcher, Witcher 2, Torchlight, Risen, Gothic 2, Morrowind, Divine Divinity, and Divinity 2 are all SUB-standard games. SUB-standard!

New Game+?
You are not alone. I also was surprised when I found no NG+ options after beating the game. IMO it's an industry standard for RPGs now, has been since ChronoTrigger IMO. It's probably the second most requested addition to the game. The first being new camera angles and zooms. New Game+ is not a standard feature in the genre. At all.

The three rats: Diamondback, MX518 and Orochi and Steelseries 6Gv2
Googling the Mionix doesn't tell me much - it seems to have all the standard features, for a standard price. Maybe if its exceptionally high quality... They all revolve around the same stuff. Logitech is just a bit more cheaper and sometimes long lasting, while the other end of the spectrum like Razer basically offers the same thing but you pay extra for vanity design. I'll certainly not buy another Razer product. Regarding the Mionix, it's just really, really confortable. For me anyway. edit: My mousepad is a SteelSeries QcK. It's great.

The three rats: Diamondback, MX518 and Orochi and Steelseries 6Gv2
I have a Logitech G500 right now. It's ok, but nothing special. What I really wanted was a Mionix NAOS 3200 but, currently, it's seemingly impossible to get in Portugal. As for keyboards I'm using a standard keyboard that came with my desktop in 1999. On my wishlist is the silent version of Daskeyboard, but a Portuguese version doesn't exist.

A challenge for funcroc
Perhaps his title should be changed to Obsidileaks.

Too damn hard
You have to play on hardcore from start to finish.

What are you playing now?
Still Dungeon Siege 3. I'm well on my way towards finishing my playthrough with Anjali.

HBO's Game of Thrones
Stephen Dillane is a very excellent actor who deserves a lot more recognition. I especially remember him stealing Nicole Kidman's show in The Hours.
-
What would you like to see in a Dungeon Siege IV?
They would just need to tone down the EXTREME!!! antics and the romantic fan service, and a better game would easily come out. Also, I'd welcome deeper roleplaying myself, both in systems and dialogue.
