I haven't watched a fine bros video in years. Did they do something sketchy? I'm curious as to why people are having these kinds of reactions to one of their videos being posted.

Budweiser is shit anyway. I'm convinced that the only reason they stay in business is because they make cheap shitty drinking game beer.

Because not everybody hates people that protects lives
I know this is bait but I still think you should kill yourself
Unlike you, I know what it means to be a patriotic American. Bet you're some ISIS sympathizer. Better call Cruz and inform him
So, Mr. True Patriot, why haven't you taken the oath I did four years ago then?

I want Das Day to be a real national holiday.

Hell is real, and it's in Norway.

Also, Dante was WAY off on that fire and brimstone stuff.

>tfw Dante's lowest circle of hell is actually a frozen wasteland where the amount of ice that sinners are submerged in is dependent on the gravity of their sins

They are dumbing down it for casuals.
By improving the graphics?
What?
I meant the game.
How are they?  It's still the same game.
All they've done is improve the visuals and adapt the gameplay so it works properly for the 3DS.

No it isn't. They've significantly downgraded the difficulty and did things like add giant glowing weak points to the bosses so even the most empty headed numpties can figure out what they need to do to win.

How are the two even remotely related?

The galaxy is a big place with big possibilities, i guess there not the same but still.....

There are trillions of grains of sand on the beach.

What's with you linking tripe like The Washington Times and Breightbart lately? Usually you use better sources than that.
I'm completely unaware about the Washington Time's reputation. Is it unreliable in some way?

It was founded to and I quote "combat communism and uphold traditional Judeo-Christian values". In many cases it's articles are heavily slanted towards the American right and they're staunchly opposed to equal protection of trans individuals as they state that gender identity is a choice.

There's also been many instances where their editors will rewrite a reporters story if it doesn't coincide with their own beliefs and not tell the reporter that they've done so.

On the business side of things it's pretty shitty as well as it's never once made a profit and the Unification Church has spent like $2 billion in keeping it going.

Anything but beer.
Good taste
Beer is pretty bad
You're pretty bad.

Das, beer is a last resort option. I'd rather have a good cider any day.
And I'd rather have bourbon any day, but I still like a Lager some times.

Eh... I've never been big on whisky, but that may be because everyone always buys that god awful shit known as fireball.

Well since I had to drive home I ended up just having a couple glasses of this locally made pear cider. Shit was pretty good.

Why does GwG have to suck so bad on the Xbone

Because next-gen consoles have no games.

Gaming / Re: If TLOU isn't one of the best games of all time...
« on: January 31, 2015, 02:32:06 AM »
Your opinion makes me want to vomit.

Good thing I don't give an Alaskan rat's ass about your opinion. I've said it before and I'll say it again, bring something of value to the conversation or leave. It's that simple.

The story isn't anything special and the gameplay is fairly average. If the majority of your experience with narrative is from games I can see how you might think that TLOU is amazing though since video game writing is typically pretty shitty.

It seems you're drinking the kool-aid though so that's likely why people aren't bothering to debate with you. They're almost certain that it will be a fruitless endeavor.


I agree with you on the "video game writing is typically pretty shitty." I don't even know why you would bring that up, though, as I didn't say anywhere in my post that TLOU's best quality is the narrative. The acting is superb, however. By both video game standards and film.

As for the gameplay, the mechanics are fairly average, not the gameplay itself. Two different things.

It's a mix of this, no one being online/on Gaming, and people agreeing with me.

I don't buy a game for good voice acting
The acting is mocap.

and I don't buy a game for average gameplay that doesn't really do anything different.

And that's your prerogative as a consumer. But most games we play today are just evolving what's been done before, and in that respect, TLOU refines what has been done before.

When all you have to offer is average gameplay then it's not worth $60 unless you personally are really into whatever the setting or genre is. I can take a quick look on steam and see hundreds of games that likely have nothing more to offer than fairly average gameplay. My interest in them is nonexistent though because I need something more than that if I'm going to be paying for it.

Spoiler
I didn't even see refinement in TLOU, it was just more of the same for me personally.

Really? What about real-time crafting, or the non-traditional cover system? These have been done before but in regards to the crafting, the game creates such an intense, tension-filled environment (for the most part) that you have to essentially gamble to see if you can craft that last molotov in time.

The cover system is hit or miss for me. MGSV has it too and it works better because of the game's nature and the lean feature.

But nonetheless, TLOU's cover system still fits within the game's apparent need to differentiate itself from other TPS, mostly Uncharted.

Like I said, it just didn't really do anything for me. I can see why people might like it, I can understand that they had moments that they really enjoyed, but for me there was nothing really there.

I'm currently having this same problem with Dragon Age: Origins. Everyone was saying how good it was and how I needed to play it, I'm about 30 hours in and I haven't really had it click yet.

It shouldn't be if nobody saw you at the time you were preforming the act.
