If we are speaking of rationality, it is pretty hard to call any game that makes it to release and then sells well a bad game. Rationally, Bioware is releasing high quality products that attract a lot of buyers and receive a good deal of critical praise. That doesn't mean I like all their games, in fact I've come to terms with the fact I'm not their target audience anymore, but it seems like calling their games 'bad' without acknowledging their merit is the same as a fanboy calling them 'good' without acknowledging their flaws.

I'm not ashamed to admit I had to look up strewth.

Sadly I created the SHIV for the Steam achievement, because I'm a slave to those little pop ups.

That is the persepctive that you will be moving around from, but the artwork is just a rough draft. Honestly I still think it looks decent. Again this is very much an indie project, it isnt the scale of Project Eternity.

Ice hockey mostly. I will go for a run if I am not getting enough ice time. I need to get to the gym more, but my kids keep me pretty busy.

Some of your points are interesting, but it falls apart when you start using your low opinion of TOR to try and prove a point. TOR as an mmo has a lot of flaws, but as a continuation of the KotOR universe, it succeeds in many ways. That is opinion, of course, but that is why you should have left it out of your original post to begin with.

You know if you up it to $50, you get the whole QFG series It is also available on GoG.

Huh, I'm a bit surprised, my reaction was very positive. The art style reminds me a bit of QFG4, which was more cartoony. But really this is not a big budget type game, it's a small team and it is going to look more like and indie project than any of their Sierra games. The overhead perspective in the video looks closer to a final fantasy type map than the traditional hand painted adventure game backgrounds. I'm not quite sure why they went that direction with the art, but it looks like their art team is comfortable with it. The Cole's are going to have more of a say in how the story works and the humor, which I'm glad to support. That doesn't look pretty close to QFG to you?

I always rush towards the end though, I even ignored a couple missions to get to the last one I did save it before then, so I'll probably go back and slow it down. It's just hard once you see the ship not to want to get out there!

You know, that kind of thinking is the reason we have 2 billion FPSs each year and almost no Space Sim in 10 years produced... No, not really. It's actually completely unrelated.

I haven't tried assaults with anything but shotgun variants. I made it to the final mission, but died heroically. I'll have to try it again. I also think I pushed the pace too much to get to the end, I don't have any heavy plasma weapons.

Gorth, it's a make-up RPG. You need to upgrade your blush and eyeliner skills so they survive boss fights like emotional hallmark commercials and intermittent weather.

That is weird. My wife and her friends jam quite a bit of stuff, and they seem to last in the fridge forever even when opened. Maybe it is the jar itself?

Started Dishonored and using my gamepad on the PC. So far I'm struggling with the control scheme

Oddly enough, earlier today I had cancelled my pledge. I hope it wasn't my fault I just wanted to put my money towards something else, and it wasn't looking very promising for them to make it.

might i ask about what you're writing? One is a story about a Halfing Paladin, followed by a critical re-examination of the previous story suggesting that it is actually a popular myth combining several stories and exaggerations. Another is a story about an otherwise insignificant military officer with a backstabbing addiction. Or maybe he just hates both the people he was hired to spy on and the people he was hired to spy for. Today I'm thinking I'll write about fantasy thieves. I'm thinking a thief with a conscience. In which he steals from a little old lady, feels really bad about it, returns it, and begs to be jailed. How very Dostoevskyian

Sorry C2B, this is just how I roll

The Quest for Glory series is my all-time favorite, with a perfect blend of adventure and RPG elements. Lori and Corey Cole are working on a new project, and their video shows that they've already done quite a bit of groundwork for it. It is a bit tough for me after dropping a big amount of PE, but luckily this campaign will take us into the next month so I should be able to come up with a decent pledge.

The Grey - I love Liam Neeson, and the acting was decent in this film, but in the end it didn't seem to know what it wanted to be and turned out as a crappy horror flick. Kind of a shame, really. Get the Gringo - Mel Gibson in a role similar to Payback, but set in a Mexican prison. It had some real good parts, but also really lame parts. Worth a rental if you liked Payback, I suppose.

Awesome! Other than PE, this was the other big Kickstarter I was waiting on.

Yeah I plan on just keeping my subscription at this point. Even though I'm only playing a few days a month or so, I'd like to see them keep updating and adding to the game, and that seems to be the best way.

This summer I visited Tillamook, Oregon and toured their very large cheese factory. We also had some great french cheeses at the Blue Heron Cheese Company nearby.

There are clear civil rights differences between the two candidates though, one is progressive and one is conservative. I get that it comes more from them serving a certain voting base, but if I'm a woman, or I'm gay, or really if I'm any minority, I don't know how I can justify voting for Romney. Don't get me wrong, I would love to see Romney show he is willing to support civil rights. It would allow me to take him seriously as a candidate.

Alien spawning? I'm not quite sure I understand what you mean.

It really depends on how the coupon was written, but it sounds like it was clearly being exploited contrary to what the intent was. It is perfectly legal for a business to protect their assets from this kind of thing.
