And the fact that that same community is the hiring pool.

I feel GW has long since lost touch with the satirical part of their settings and taken them way too serious.

What put me off Hob was that after not being able to play a couple of days, I had no idea where I was going and where I had been. I felt I had to dedicate time to playing it consequently to be able to finish it.

Mind you, I don't think any man can pull off the male Malkavian outfits either.

Eh, the (stripper) police uniform gets better 😛

Hi Deb.

Feral Gangrel. They are the ones with Animalism and Protean.

Ok, I may be mixing up the order of events

I thought you were a malkavian. Did Nines not tell you to run? And didn't you say to Damsel that you ignore other numbers but to nines you listen? Or is that line later?

Malks are all insane in one way or another. At the same time they see truths others do not. Your characters dialogue options give away details, but you have to know the information to spot it. That is why they have an added joy to play in a second playthrough when you "get it" when some information is sprung on you. I am Brujha, so I am glad you did not go ventrue. We'd have to stop being friends.

Don't expect to feel good about yourself while playing. Ventrue are scum. Tremere are scum who do blood magic. Do a Malkavian run on your second playthrough, so you can appreciate their insight. Feel free to go full combat. You don't get around fighting some boss fights anyway.

Tried the playtest for "Every Day We Fight". I had understood it to be a turn based tactics game with aiming similar to Phoenix Point. I was wrong. The aiming is real time. The moment you aim at an opponent, they start moving away. Sometimes when an opponent tries to shoot you, you get a chance to scamper for cover. There is a lot of reactions. And a lot of real time real aiming. A first person shooter masquerading as a xcom clone. I feel a bit like playing XCOM with the QTEs in Telltale's Walking Dead games or that Tomb Raider torture porn game. Not the target audience.

A game that isn't even dead because it never was alive got into a second thread. I am taking bets on how many threads we can reach before it either releases or gets officially abandoned.

Egypt is still ok. Once you go to Gaul, the quality of the game drops into the basement. Worse writing, rushed areas. They seem to have run out of time and money and just said "wrap it up people".

I wish! Maybe with the forkcat art The feedback is silly positive. If I did have my own island, we'd be doing obsidianite lan-parties. Beach in the morning, Alpha Protocol Speed Run Tournament by night 😛

If people get a lot of unjustified, hateful flak and the product isn't too expensive and my finances are OK, then I may buy it, not to spite the haters, but to show some solidarity. But it is remarkable what some people will do out of a "sticking it to the man" gesture.

At 6.7 hours played of Showgunners I have gotten the Steam achievements for 50% of lootcrates collected, 50% of autographs signed, and 50% of optional combat arenas completed. I think the 15-20 hours estimated may be on the generous side.

Sure looks like it.

Have gun Will clobber people to death with it For the ratings

I started on Showgunners. It does very well with the Running Man game show theme. Even the tutorial works, as it is commented on by the TV Show host. The game promises to be relatively short (the devs estimate 15-20 hours, and I expect it to be closer to 15 than 20). It is fun turn based tactics and a lot of the devs have worked on Phantom Doctrine (not fun turn based tactics) and Hard West (better than Phantom Doctrine turn based tactics gameplay (but that isn't especially hard, unless you compare it to the Narcos turn based tactics game)). Things that could turn people off? That one thing you hated about Firaxis XCOM. No, not Central Bradford, the other thing. Timers.

Going to work up some excitement from you, my adoring audience:

But did you buy Bloodlines 2? Because with Diablo 4 at least you are getting a game.

I finally discovered the Obama Poster Maker and made one for my cat, so people in Greece have someone to vote for this month.

Which one of the two?

That wasn't Bethesda though. It is the writing sample from the RPS guy with which he wants to convince Bethesda to let him write the sexy stuff 😛
