  1. It's much better in the beginning when it's more story driven with the Red Baron, I don't mean Von Richthofen, well you know the one I mean. This does give me some hope that the smaller scale DLCs set in a specific area going to be better. Simply because there is going to be more fleshed out characters in a smaller area.
  2. Somewhere in the 250-300 Euro area. (300 bucks) So yeah, that might rule out windows since that's money on top. Not that many new tablets at that price point. Saw one Lenovo 10' though. Might even consider used/refurbished.
  3. In her mind I am for some reason considered an expert on all things computer. So, price is an issue and it has to be large enough for her to watch things on, like netflix stuff and read on comfortably. My preference would be windows I think, because adblock doesn't work with Android and there is all the bloatware from the manufacturer you can't opt out of. Lenovo makes good laptops for the money. How are their tablets ? Any thoughts ?
  4. They are doing cavalry wrong, again. The Warg riders are just pulling up next to the crossbowmen looks like and hacking away like they were infantry.
  5. Looks like what you wanted all the other games to have been like, scalewise. We'll see if the execution is any good though. Didn't think much of the voice acting.
  6. It basically is a new install and it's keeping some stuff from the old installation. I seriously doubt old programs are still gonna run. It's kinda silly even using the term 'upgrade'.
  7. High detail horizons aren't a big deal to me. Throw some fog in there and no one will know the difference.
  8. It's objectively ****. Don't blame the messenger.
  9. Would you believe, we have never actually perma-banned anyone. Excluding bots and the like. Sometimes we put people on moderated status on a more or less permanent basis, which means it might take a long time before you see a reply to your post.
  10. Was gonna. Was searching for stuff by Frazetta and found this pic of Frazetta. How awesome is that.
  11. And here's Erik Kain's (of Forbes fame) response: http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2015/07/21/more-terrible-journalism-erupts-over-new-video-game-sexism-study/ Also relevant, Liana K's video on the subject: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0qUQGzBmis How many Halo matches did they play, because it says they only created 3 accounts. I would want to try to approach 1000 polls (different games) before trying to make any meaningful comparisons. Also who plays Halo anyways. I have a strong suspicion the ration of 13 year old annoying brats is higher than the mean.
  12. Hippies are generally true idealists, hipsters only care about the cause de jour. And clothes, and hairstyling.
  13. So the deciding factor is IQ ?. What we can eat I mean. Explain why we would have a 'special bond' with other mamals. Doesn't sound very plausible to me.
  14. Fair warning : it looks pretty dramatic and if you saw 'Free Willie' this is probably not for you. The pilot whale is not an endangered species, the humble tuna fish however, is, due to severe overfishing. So. Why is it we never see any nautical hippies doing after fishermen. It's common knowledge that trawlers ruin the eco system of the seabed. Discuss.
  15. Not much for the idea that you can take most perks several times. It's just going to wind up being slow incremental nonsense, like the gameplay difference between having your special stat raised by one. I like perks that add something specific, like a special attack or ability to chose from additional dialouges, or eat corpses. That kind of thing. Remember that they have to try to please everyone, they want everyone to buy it. The trouble is when you do that you very often wind up with mediocre.
  16. I don't get it, is this irony, niche commentary where true Joker fans method-act heartless barbs into dead artists. You are allowed to steal, as long as you steal from the best. They also need to come up with a new distincitve style. A lot of animated Batman, even stuff I like, kinda looks like crap.
  17. Yes...that would usually be the normal thing to do for someone who actually wants to support and convince others of their outlandish claims, wouldn't it...if the person actually had evidence and didn't instead just blow off anyone who dared question their asininity. I watched an episode of Dirty Jobs about dumpster diving for rotten, half maggot-devoured corpses while preparing food. An ill-advised choice on my part. You might be annoyed at constantly being asked to back up your claims, but there is no good reason why you shouldn't be able to. It's going to take more than stating your conviction to convince anyone after all.
  18. Does it specify whether they are male or female virgins.
  19. Thats what I used, yes. I see now that the joke fails when it's not one of the motorized ones.
  20. They are making it into a movie. whatshisface the old joker who OD on pills (Heath Ledger) stole all his lines from this : http://moviepilot.com/posts/2015/07/14/groundbreaking-graphic-novel-batman-the-killing-joke-is-becoming-an-animated-movie-3379090?lt_source=external,manual https://www.reddit.com/r/batman/comments/xksjv/the_jokers_two_scar_stories_and_why_the_dark/
  21. Well the pizza delivery guy gets paid around 21$/h so tipping isn't really necessary. Everyone can live off the average pay alone here as long as they work ~30 hours a week. There absolutely is tipping here. In a resturant with a fancy waiter I mean, not in a Diner type thing, we don't really have that.
  22. How about fitting a custom cooler. It's a bit of a pain to have to void the warranty straight out of the box, but I'll chose less noise every time. I wish they would sell them with a custom cooler already fitted, or maybe manufacturers should always be forced to include fan level and noise specs. I was considering one of these a while ago. http://www.wacom.com/en-us/products/pen-displays/cintiq-companion-2 Despite costing as much as a new system give or take, it turns out that they only come with a standard small fast spinning CPU fan and no mobile GFX unit and are extremely noisy. Despite having such a slick high end design, It's for 'graphics professionals' apparently. If Apple were producing something like this you can bet they would have thought a bit more about the consumer experience before letting it pass quality assurance. When ohh when is Wacom going to get some serious competition so ordinary mortals will be able to buy a device like this.
  23. I'm going to go with 'OSs' having for some strange reason spent a few minutes looking it up. An 'OSS' is another acronym, so you only have the lower case as a distinction. You could use apostrophes 'OS's' but that might confuse some people. Would that would make the posessive plural 'OS's'' ? *resisting the urge go go further down the rabbit hole*
