why would that annoy anyone? It's a shallow game, Diablo with guns or whatnot. But I found it that type of genre fun. It was also great to play with my husband. That's it. ... in terms of E3, what about Bethesda? They put a pic on their twitter that seem to imply ... something. Not that I care much about them these days. What projects to they have in the works? lol Thanks. I understand that Borderlands has its own fanbase and I didn't want to offend said fanbase, so I gave a bit of a warning before I stated that I found the games to be boring. Nothing wrong in not liking it. Different tastes and all that I can tell you what the attraction was for me, it was the dark humor, the absurdity of the characters (Handsome Jack is my all time favourite villain) and the bizarre dialogue at times. No other games will ever have a mission like the one where you have to shoot Face McShooty in the face, nor any dialogue that hilarious. Characters and voice actors were top notch (Obsidian could learn something).... But most of all, the game was awesome in coop and I had the luck of playing most of it with two friends. No end to the hilarity when trying to "raise" a Goliath from infancy to GOD-Liath Ultimate Mega-Badass difficulty in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode. It was like being proud parents Just to wipe afterwards getting swamped by psychotic midgets with cleavers. Yeah, good times. I managed to get a character to level 72 and pass the first challenge at Digistruct Peak, so now OP1 ("Overpowe Level 1", which means all enemies are now one level higher than they would be for a level 72)

Where are the Borderlands 3 news??? /cry

Nier: Automata and Gary Grigsbys War in the East (already had Gary Grigsbys War in the West)

I sometimes log in on Star Forge and Darth Malgus just for the nostalgia bits. Running a flashpoint or uprising if I can find anyone up for the more challenging ones. It can be days/weeks between logins though. I should probably practise a bit on starparse, I'm seriously losing my touch on my shadows/assassins. Barely getting close to 10k dps these days and that with mostly 246/248 gear. Used to do 10.5k regularly with those toons. Maybe they nerfed them. Bleh, who cares. Borderlands 2 is more fun anyway Edit: If anyone wants to do something some day on one of those two servers, just message me. Star Forge: 'Unfulfilled Destiny' pub side, 'Malevolent' imp side Darth Malgus: 'Blind Justice' pub side, 'Opal' imp side I mostly login pub side though.

Iirc you can freely pause the game in single player mode? While you can do that in multiplayer mode, we don't, rather just let the game run at fast speed and then take the punch on the nose it gives

Maybe it's my imagination, but there seems to be a big "gap" in difficulty in Age of Empires II between Standard and Moderate difficulty. A single AI enemy wiped the floor with the two of us teaming up against it Edit: We could take on two AI's on standard (we actually lost, but it was a closely contested fight, bastard AI had nicked all the relics, which is a winning condition)

I was taught swimming in the North Sea. Not particularly pleasant (rather frigid waters), but you had to make do with what you had. Pools are a luxury that only some schools have access to. Making last preparations for a trip to Melbourne. Looking forward to watching The Wizard of Oz as a stage production (musical)

The onboard Intel "Gfx" were just too awful. Bought the cheapest card I could find that would work as a stop gap solution. Got myself a 4GB Asus GTX 1050 Ti. I was positively surprised actually, only game that struggles so far is The Witcher III, but I could tone down the settings a bit. Everything else it runs almost as well as my old laptop (Gtx 880m card with 8GB) Even better, the single fan makes no audible noise, the whole thing being drowned out by the rather noisy WD Black HDD's When not seeking on the disks, I have to really struggle to hear the PC at all, even when under load.

Not going to link to it... but last game i bought was 'Genital Jousting' from Steam. The single player mode is fun enough, but we need to find a few more players for multi-peen play Edit: Actually bought a second game just before it that I can link to...

Sorry, no youtube video. We're going Melbourne to see this in about 3 days from now. I'm really looking forward to it http://www.wizardofozthemusical.com/tickets/melbourne/

Sounds like me and Dragon Age Inquisition... Maybe in ten years time?

I really tried to like Overwatch.... Got no less than 4 good friends who play it several times a week. I just couldn't get interested in it. Edit: When not playing Borderlands 2 and Age of Empires 2 (both in 3-4 people co-op sessions), then I enjoy The Witcher III and Master of Orion 2

Yes, new accounts need a number of approved posts before they can post without approval. In case anybody wonders why, you should see the number of unapproved spam posts by bots that gets removed before people see them

Yeah, the "better" ones seems to be around USD $1100 here at the moment. It might be possible to find it cheaper overseas (with the risk that comes with that) Edit: By comparison the price for the rest of the build (including OS and Office) was USD $2500 in todays exchange rates (got the ram cheap from Newegg)

A crime against humanity! Edit: For the uninitiated, being an ethnic Dane, I'm genetically disposed towards mocking out Swedish cousins.

Removed a few recent posts. Being negative is fine, how it is expressed does matter though. Less personal and more constructive please? If people want to disagree with moderating calls, send a PM and keep the thread "clean"

I need to research the gfx card market a bit, but I wanted to boot the thing up and get running already

Have you tried Mechromancer? The game gets positively insane if you play an Anarchy build and hit high numbers on its stacks. Level 52 Gaige.... currently maxed out in the BFF skill tree, so not quite maxed out yet in Anarchy. But I love it. Especially with the 'Close Enough' and 'The N'th Degree' skills (yet to get 5 skill points in the latter, so not feeling its full effect) "Accuracy is overrated anyway" We started on 'Tiny Tina's assault on Dragons Reach'. Bunkers and Badasses indeed. It's like watching some of those old and funny cartoons of very bad D&D sessions

I didn't even think about that connection! Thanks Mate

I decided that my old laptop is so old it's becoming a liability having it as my only pc at home, so started building a new desktop pc. No liquid cooling this time. Completely lost when it comes to gfx cards these days (bastard bitcoin miners). Currently using the built in Intel "graphics" that came with the motherboard

Saw this show in Brisbane not long ago

Really bad sound quality, sorry. Peoples phones just weren't up to the task. Went and saw these guys a week ago (we are somehwere not too far from the stage). I wish we had some HQ recording from the concert...

Not the Melbourne concert unfortunately, couldn't find any good recordings from the event: (the concert below was just a few weeks earlier, comparable performance although the Melbourne audience were considerably "livelier" with crowd surfing and everything else that goes with an animated bunch of people)

I've been gone so long, I guess I should call my post "What do you do this year?" Started in a new job about a month ago, so that was an exciting time. But, to start from the beginning, made a friend playing swtor about a year ago. We don't play the game anymore, but that wasn't quite the end of it. I guess you could say, it's a bit more than just a casual online friendship. Spending quite a bit of time doing things together, attending concerts, shows, performances or just checking out the local Pancake Palace at 2am, trekking through the local rain forests etc.. The downside of living in two different corners of the country I guess, have to make maximum use of the time we do have. We went and saw Disney's Aladdin in Melbourne, as well as concerts with US bands 'Incubus' and 'The Killers' I also got to see 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' in Brisbane, alone unfortunately, but she was adamant I had to go and see it, even if she couldn't make it. Got tickets for Opera House in Sydney, so we are going to see Bill Murray and Jan Vogler there later this year. I feel culturally very enlightened Edit: Going to put some youtube links in the appropriate thread
