  1. To me "realistic" means coherent, consistent and following principles of logical creation.

     

    Sure there might be magic and stuff but given these circumstances the world develops around these features.

     

    The economy might be different than the middle ages but there still has to be an economy that makes sense otherwise there would be no merchants etc. Magic might surpress the development of science and engineering in certain fields but then it would move forward in other fields. (Who needs medicine if you can be healed with magic etc.). There are also matters of developing racial features. I doubt that beings that live 1000years would behave in the same way as beings with 80yrs lifespan.

  2. I voted 2.

     

    1st - I'd rather not deal with extra customs or potentially misplaced/lost disc on shipment #2

     

    2nd - as a few people stated here already. It will be a huge bummer for collectors and possible future value of the boxed versions, especially the CE ones

     

    3rd - I do not even live at the address Ive given. It's my old family house used to stash various physical goodies, where one of my parents still lives. Being 9 timezones away from there currently, would make resolving any possible issues.with double shipment extremely difficult.

     

    For playing the game I will be using the digital Steam version so as long asnI get the code on the release day I have no problems with getting a full shipment later on.

     

    Perhaps an opt out option can be taken into consideration?

  3. the moment women start to demand equal parity as earth drillers i will support them, for now I am ignoring both extremes. BTW, why is this still going, like 99% of normal populace is not even caring about this.

     

    Ignoring attention whores is the best remedy for them. The moment you start arguing with them you give them legitimacy

  4. Endless space combat is the only thing that turns me away from the game. Sword of the Stars is still best after Master of Orion series for me for space TB 4x mainly due to combat being superiror to other games while strategic layer is good too. Shame they messed up SotS2.

    Sadly, it has been revealed that The Witcher 3 does not have 16 hours of sex scenes as falsely reported earlier in The Guardian.

     

    http://nichegamer.net/2015/01/it-took-16-hours-to-record-all-of-the-sex-scene-mo-cap-for-the-witcher-3-wild-hunt/

     

     

    #Witcher3 It took 16 hours to record all mo-cap material for the sex parts. This does not translate to 16 hours of sex in game. Thanks!

    16 hours did seem like a bit much but Romance is an important part of the dark and mature world of the Witcher so we should be expecting some decent Romance arcs and opportunities 

     

     

    you mean detailed pixelled sex scenes?

  6. Oh I don't doubt that white people get the receiving end of it too - although your anecdotal evidence doesn't translate to any defined facts so if you have better sources, I'd love to see 'em. It just seems to me (and keep in mind once again, I don't actually live in America so all I have is what the media and people on the internet tell me, so I may be wrong) that it happens to black people more. Part of it could be media bias and the divide may be smaller than it appears to me but I highly doubt there isn't one since racial profiling is a very real thing and often feeds the paranoia of cops such as this.

     

    another 2 things....

     

    There is much higher crime rate among the "black" populace

     

    Such accidents hitting on "black" populace get super fast and high attention of various medias, because "racism"... if it happens to whites/latino/chineese etc. it's usually an accident, and not so hot for media.

  7. The problem appears there because of 2 factors.

     

    USA has a high populace (324mln)

     

    That population has a very easy access to various guns

     

    If I would be a police officer in USA I would also be more trigger itchy than I would be if I was an EU police officer. You need to realize that in many cases if the real gun would be involved, the policeman would be able to verify in 100% if the suspect has a gun or not probably at the moment when the other person would be already aiming it at the officer and was about to pull the trigger, leaving obviously the police officer at the disadvantage, because he would generally have to pray that the first shot or burst is inaccurate.

     

    You won't be able to change the regulations for the police in US until the moment you change the laws regarding access to fire arms and then remove the guns from the vast majority of the population.

     

    In EU, even though it is around 500mln ppl in populace, you see such accidents less frequently, but the population of EU is not armed to the teeth as if the world war just ended.

  8. TESO going F2P model (except you still have to buy the game)?  Nobody could have seen that coming.  :-

     

    well, if you cant properly balance PvP from the get-go and it takes ages to do patches, then you can't be subs model, I remember i quit after my 90 days sub, because the PvP was broken in terms of balance and PvP was what got me into the game after the beta tests. This was my first and probably last MMO, not counting the Star Citizen, which for me is a quasi-MMO

  9. That Mark of Chaos trailer makes my blood boil, why would a column of combined armsmen charge the enemy surrounding them? Surely it would be far wiser to put the Arquebusiers to use behind a solid wall of polearms and shieldbearers, failure to do so gave the Kurgan that victory.

     

    I'm such a nerd.

     

    #Coolfactor #Drama more important ;)

     

    on the strategy factor - they were surrounded, so i guess their best bet was to charge one way and break through the surround to either retreat or gain a better position ;)

  10. Shadow of the Horned Rat, Dark Omen and Mark of Chaos were boardgame scale, at least coming from someone where the store house rules were 1,000 - 2,000 point armies per player. The only other one I can think of that did large scale battles was Warhammer Online, but y'know, not what you were getting at. I think the three above did a great job of capturing the feel of the boardgame though, and while there weren't as many spells and abilities, they still had enough. What would you live improved upon out of interesr because for the most part I always just wanted them to add every army, unit and spell to these things and declare that Warhammer had made the full transition at last.

     

     

    I loved the trailer, but gameplay was a bit lacking

  11. Well, you can argue about various things, but the fact is, that after the recent anti-terrorist action in Belgium, Belgian government decided to release military on the streets in Brussels and Antwerp to "protect" possible targets of highly probable terrorist response to the anti-terrorist raids.

  12. None of the higher level rewards look particularly interesting. They seem to be steering away from physical goods; probably for good reason yes, and yet... a t-shirt, laptop sticker, or mouse pad would be nice.

     

    because physical goods can take quite an amount of money when you need to produce them, and then deliver on their own cost. Not to mention all the other logistic hurdles.
