What you did today
I think the fitbit is a better use of the wrist. I don't need my phone to be on my wrist because I want a decent sized screen.

Homeless Man Survives by Having One-Night Stands with Women
I think I'm being trolled. It seems as if you guys are congratulating the severe alcoholic who is wasting his life away.

Homeless Man Survives by Having One-Night Stands with Women
What? The guy is in a desperate struggle with addiction. He has a gift of charm, and he's wasting it away. Apparently Dr. Phil has sent him to rehab a couple times. That's a super sad story, how long do you think he can actually maintain such an existence?

I feel like we already covered this before. Weird.

Steam now has Paywall mods
I don't have a problem with Bethesda getting a reasonable cut of mod profits. They've created the framework after all. I don't have a problem with Steam getting a cut either. But it should be 10%, not some crazy high number.

What's on the idiot box Part 4 (or something)
There are some things I really like about Arrow, but man, they love to turn it into Dawson's Creek about twice an episode.

I'm just assuming the first season is supposed to show him as somewhat of a novice. That way he can get more impressive as they move forward.

WTF is wrong with Obsidian?
It seems like they've been fairly active in patching and trying to fix bugs, so I don't really hold it against them.

WTF is wrong with Obsidian?
Its a watered-down, bastardized isometric RPG not worth playing for more than a week (for nostalgia purposes only). And yeah its buggy as hell. Or it's a deep and engaging isometric RPG set in a fantastically realized world with a wonderful story, that will give you about 50+ hours of enjoyment. Your mileage may vary.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
Not according to all the health statistics.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
Hahahahahahahha. Indeed. For example, pigs are very happy when they roll in shiet. Pigs roll around in mud for a variety of reasons (and only in their own waste if their living conditions allow no alternative.) Temperature control and removing parasites are two of the most common. But yeah, if I was a pig, I'd wallow in mud. It looks like a good time. I used to enjoy playing mud football as a young chap.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
Well my response was geared to this: It is a bit tongue in cheek. I have things that draw my interest, and if something fails to entertain me, I tend to drop it pretty quickly. But the idea that person's standards are low because they enjoy AAA titles is ridiculous.

Daredevil is fairly well cast all around. The journalist guy is pretty great too.

What you did today
I think it was a management position. I still think he should try substitute teaching, there is a huge demand for it.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
There is some truth in your statement, but strifing for better is also a good thing. I am not sure I understand what you mean. We are talking about games. Sure, I can strive to be better in my career, or as a parent, but why would I need to strive to be entertained by something better? I'm looking for enjoyment, not enlightenment.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
I'm grateful for my low standards, I'm able to enjoy a tremendous amount of stuff because of it.

Journalism and bias in the gaming industry
Well it could very well be that neckbeards are just recognizing their own

Journalism and bias in the gaming industry
I just want to see some evidence that these articles affect games in any meaningful way. People make digs at the dudebro culture of Call of Duty all the time, but that doesn't stop developers from releasing them and a ton of clones to try and cash in. Sales drive the industry, not journalists.

Journalism and bias in the gaming industry
I have no problem heaping scorn on gaming journalists, as I've said a few times before. But I'm also pretty secure in my identity as a gamer, and don't find any offense at these rather silly articles.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
You like long walks on the beach, have blue eyes, and smell like the ocean. You were once trapped in a terrible storm, and all hands on deck were lost but you. They haunt your dreams.

Dragon Age: Inquisition
What's weird is he doesn't even seem to like anything Obsidian has done. Not sure why he hangs around if that is the case, most of us regulars have at least one Obsidian favorite.

Journalism and bias in the gaming industry
That's because they generally do not create games. They ban or at best criticize them. Just look at what they tried with HuniePop, Hatred and they are trying with GTA5. Have these games actually been banned or changed to meet the complaints of the SJW critics? This is what I was originally asking for clarification on.
-
Journalism and bias in the gaming industry
Again, I'd ask for non-Bioware examples where we have the preachy SJW agenda being part of the game. I really can't think of any.
