I forget where I saw it, and since then I cannot unsee it, but there was a photo of Manziel and Justin Beiber hanging out, partying, doing the things they do. You're right, both of them have punch-inducing faces.

Finally, some awesome cars. Not many around here appreciate a good motor and a nice body. Speaking of fun things that sound incredible, there is an audio app for your phone with nothing but engine sounds you control. It's a simple tachometer that takes up the whole screen, with a throttle, start button, gear-change button, and I think a brake. You start the engine, the tach revs, hit the gas and accelerate, shift, nail the throttle, shift again, hit the redline ... shift down a few gears, punch it, hit top gear ... whatever you want ... it is so fun you won't believe it. The app is free, you get a "Euro" V12, V4 sportbike, and a V8 muscle. You can purchase additional three-engine packs for .99, like the "Historic GP" pack, with a flat 12 Grand Prix engine, a GP V8, and a turbo GP V6. The other packs are "Racecar" (which has a tiny pic of a Pagani(?)), "Supercar," "Street Tuner," "Street Bike" (inline 3 British (has to be Triumph), and V-twin Euro, and U.S. styles), "Off-Road," "V-8 Thunder," and lastly "Modern GP." I haven't paid for any new packs yet, it's such a blast with the free ones, but that flat 12 is gonna be bonkers. The app is called RevHeadz, made by a trio of dudes who have been recording engine sounds for video games for twenty years.

Wait, so is there a published list of minimum system requirements ...

They really should make lockpicking automatic
ManifestedISO replied to BrokenMask's topic in Backer Beta Discussion
It's a role-playing game, not an assembly line. -
Me too, it's exciting watching the beta unfold. Can't believe it's been two years.

That's how we want it, since that's how we're used to it. -
Holy moly it's backer bedlam at the beta bus stop for PoE. I hope Obsidian issues hazardous duty pay for the forum developers.

Update #84: Welcome to the Backer Beta
ManifestedISO replied to BAdler's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Announcements & News
Here's to hoping the request for decorum achieves an incredible twenty-five percent rate of return. Going through the impressions thread, it is apparent who read the Known Issues, and who elected to leave the instructions in the box. Anyway, awesome! Can't believe beta is HERE -
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.

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?
ManifestedISO replied to wolfdyne's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
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. -

No, only booze. No cigarettes, no lottery tickets, nothing ancillary to having a good time. -
Free gum for Backers?
ManifestedISO replied to wolfdyne's topic in Pillars of Eternity: General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)
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. -
Backer Beta: Coming August 18th
ManifestedISO replied to BAdler's topic in Pillars of Eternity: Announcements & News
You guys do a bang-up job testing the beta for us, okay. Remember, use your words. 'u' is not 'you' unless u mad bro? -
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.

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.

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'.

Whatever is the opposite of interesting, informative, fun to read, impartial, cleverly written, and thoughtful posts, you are nailing it.

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.
