I decided to listen to Bartimaeus and stop pining after that girl. Then we ran into her with friends (who's adamant opinion was "you can do better, deserve better etc" and would roll eyes at the thought of her and I dating), and afterwards the very adamant friend apologised because they have now revised their opinion, having seen us talking and beaming like teenagers. Seriously, are friends allowed to do that? I thought they were 'sposed to be the voice of reason. *Shakes head*

Tribunal has the better story, Bloodmoon is more openworldy.

Played the Attikus operation in Borderla... Battleborn. Fun quick run. Normal Borderlands level writing (which is good enough). And they finally added some skins to unlock through playing*. But I think if they had added something like this earlier, the game would have done better. *you could always unlock some recolours of the character through leveling, but there was never a clear goal of "I'll play the Attikus Ops as Mellka to unlock her Attikus Ops skin". The actually good skins are still microtransaction of course.

Goblins of Elderstone met the funding goal, but you can still help with a stretch goal or two

Hello orc.

Screenshot thread is only at 22 pages. But with the new Mordheim DLC I think I can get it to lockable length in no time

Dear obsidianites, obsididudes, obsididudettes and other denominations, today the following topics ran their allotted length and had to be locked: The RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS topic, in its 30th August iteration by Gorth reached an unwieldy length and was locked at 35 pages and re-opened and re-imagined by TrueNeutral in the 27th October version The The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt topic's 16th June edition by Rosbjerg reached a similar length (though not quite as far as the RVGN topic) and was locked at 34 pages. It too was re-launched by TrueNeutral with a 27th October interpretation. What do you think of the new version? Have they improved on the tried and true formula? Are they being innovative enough? Do they depart too much of what fans of the IPs have grown to expect? Discuss

*Funny detail: the thrall is wearing red, not black.

As promised: A forum post of The Wyrdstone Dead.

Expect screenshots here soon as Melkathi will resume standard screenshotting services.

Yeah, controller helps a lot. Still need to do the final battle again, since the game froze when I beat the boss :/

AI War II is on Kickstarter. Not really interested in the game, but ARCEN do deserve support: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/arcengames/ai-war-ii

Played the new update for Age of Barbarian. The new story content is brutal even for this game. I really did not expect it to end that way. So cudos to the devs for that. But they really need to hire someone who actually speaks English to rewrite that mess - I am half expecting the next enemy to inform me that "you have no chance to survive make your time".

Insomnia?

Was watching VGHS and had a great laugh when they did their rendition of collector's edition content NPCs: https://youtu.be/nhiRE2hfFJc?t=14m16s I think the first time I ran into something like that was Dragon Age: Origins

Though encouraged.

Vampires...

We want proper screenshots in the write up that illustrate the points made in the review or the sexist exploitation of women in the genre.

Yeah, I was tempted as well, but I tend not to be underwhelmed by Firaxis games.

Looking forward to the write up

If good gear has been dumped in a container within scan range, then AI will loot it. It will go for corpses and things that have been actively dropped, not things that only spawned there, as far as I know.

I'm backing this: Goblins of Elderstone - The Goblin Tribe Simulator http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=774042010 You know you want to back this project too. It is the goblin thing to do.

Or wait for a sale and play something from your backlog
