What are you playing now?
Holy moly it's backer bedlam at the beta bus stop for PoE. I hope Obsidian issues hazardous duty pay for the forum developers.

Star Wars Episode 7 Thread
Some news today from Ep. VIII director, Rian Johnson, regarding a return to practical special effects, something inherent to the original trilogy: Great news, I think. Real ships, real props, real effects, they're what made the first movies so special. Also, in new canon news, Marvel has re-assumed comic book rights, and will debut three new Star Wars series beginning in January, get this, set between A New Hope and Empire. One series for the good guys, one that follows Darth Vader and minions, including Fett, and a mini-series featuring Princess Leia.

What you did today
You know I bet you're the only poster on this board who's ever climbed Mt. Motherfu--er. And you probably ran up it with a pack and rifle I'm guessing. No sir, not the only one. I was also at Pendleton in 1991. January through to April for training and SOI. I live now within a few miles of the base. Once in a while I can hear (more like feel) ordnance.

Free gum for Backers?
Wasn't there a big quake in 1989? That gum survived disaster.

Free gum for Backers?
Coffee? Tea? Mountain Dew? Not at state stores. Caffeine is widely available in all forms elsewhere. And gum. At one point, possibly still, Utah ranked number one in ice cream consumption per capita.

Free gum for Backers?
No, only booze. No cigarettes, no lottery tickets, nothing ancillary to having a good time.

Free gum for Backers?
In Utah, USA, there are no corner liquor stores, no booze in grocery stores. The state controls and manages distribution of liquor by region, called State Liquor Stores. Closing time, 10pm, closed Sundays. The devil invented it, no reason to make temptation convenient.

[Possible Spoilers] Pillars of Eternity will be livestreamed at Gamescom
Can't find any updates regarding the brutal beetle blitz. Would like to know if a single Gamescom attendee survived the rout.

[Merged] Please make a console version!
I was ten when the Crash of '83 happened. Of course I didn't realize it ... all I knew was, we finally got a second-hand 2600 and a ton of games for cheap. Might as well have been all-new to me. That feeling of not having to put quarters into an arcade to play video games, priceless. After watching the Gamescom videos, I changed my mind and have no desire for a PoE console version. I need my whole hand covering a mouse to enjoy it, I'm certain.

What you did today
Whew, you guys make me tired just sitting here. If it wasn't so hot, I'd probably run obstacle courses and climb mountains, too, no I would not.

A Global Religion
I got an A in a pragmatism course in college, but only because English majors do what they know and avoid mathematics and P.E. classes with the passion of a christ. I really should boot up my XP machine and re-read my final paper from that course. I remember the overall feeling afterward was less 'enlightenment', and more of, 'well, that was weird and difficult to comprehend'.

What you did today
Have gone completely insane. Priorities upside down. Needs replaced by pre-orders. Was getting tired of "food" and "gas" anyway. Dualshock 4 Wave Blue edition drops Tuesday, Glacier White on Sep. 9, Urban Camouflage Sep. 30. Magma Red still to be released for North America.

Josh Sawyer has a doppelganger
ManifestedISO replied to Tartantyco's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Not as creepy as the couch seen on his twitter page. And the cats. How he reconciles between those items and a Ducati in the garage, I cannot know.

How does he "see" them ... literally, or some kind of data collection. Is that what those three screens are showing in the pic, party wipes.

So it's not just me then I probably did it three times just in regular window mode. Does this mean I have control issues or simply exceptional coordination.

Thoughts on Gamescon Stream
Serious, we really get the exact spell and effect icons from the IE games? The winged-foot Haste, Cure Light Wounds blue crosses, and all the rest. Hope so, love it!

Cool awesome. The twitch demo is exactly how I play ... run around, get wiped, can't rest, more enemies, backtracking ... but it's cool, I still have fun. Can't wait!
