Just kidding it's a comedy about his mental illness

you think ferrell can pull this off?

Lee Everett is a fantastic character, in his design. The kind of games Telltale makes really have a kind of inherent paradox: character-driven and choice-driven. For something to be character driven, the character has to be heavily developed and strong, with identifiable traits, opinions, and goals. A game where you alone determine what the character does would seemingly invalidate that, make you a stand-in for the character instead of making the character someone in his own right.

But Lee averts that. He has plenty of character traits and motivations (love for Clementine, brave, modest, amicable, leadership) that make him an everyman, even when the player can make him go down the path they choose. But the secret is in somehow making every available choice in character for him. Even the most violent, immoral, brutal choice a player can make is handled in a way that makes it feel like something Lee would do.

I don't know, it's just rare to see such a strong character in a game where the player decides the plot. He's more or less the same person in every playthrough, but there's still so many different meaningful choices you can make.

"Interactive movies" meme aside, Telltale is great at script design.

took a shortcut through the woods, and I lost my way

it was getting late, and I was scared, and alone

but then a kind old man

took my hand

and led me home

well mama couldn't see him, yeah but he was standing there

and I knew in my heart he was the answer to my praaaaaaayer

if anyone breathe a word or the edge of a word about what happened, I will come to you in the black of some terrible night, and I will bring with me a pointy reckoning that will shudder you! And you know I can do it. I have seen some reddish work done at night. And I can make you wish you had never seen the sun go down.

Things that will be remembered as classics in the centuries to come, like Shakespeare or Mozart. When people talk about "turn of the millenium classics", they'll really be talking about anything from the 80s to five years from now, but what things from our time (within the past ten years) do you think will be on that list?

I think

Breaking Bad
Dark Knight trilogy
Minecraft (not that it's worth all the hype)
Game of Thrones

I know only a few people here watch this show, but it really is great. Season 3 is getting excellent reviews, people like Stephen King and William Shatner are fans, and the plot arcs are some of the best I've seen in television.

The new episode was a huge one. Even with that plot stalling but inevitable distraction in the midde of it, the whole of the episode moved us forward in the plot immensely.
last ten seconds were literally perfect, I'd make that my new avatar right now if it weren't so on the nose

A post on the internet sums up why the NCR is really the best Fallout faction (except for perhaps the Brotherhood):

Compared to everything else out there the NCR are damn near a utopia. They are democratic, actually democratic compared to pre-War USA, egalitarian with equal rights for women, ghouls and even some super mutants, appears to have rebuilt the majority of California to 19th-century standards by the time of New Vegas and from the looks of it are too big to destroy.

Now, I know what y'all are gonna say: They are expansionist, stretching their resources too thin, highly tax their citizenry and throw soldiers at the enemy like they're orcs. So let met ask this: Got a better idea? The New California Republic apparently want to restore the former United States to its old glory, and the way I see it this is the only reasonable way to do so. In order to gain more resources for reconstruction you have to expand, in order to expand you need a powerful military and in order to have a powerful military you need high taxes. If the NCR citizens don't like the taxes they can just join the army or leave. If they would suddenly abandon these goals their resources would run out back home, leaving infrastructure cracked and charred for the foreseeable future, and would also allow their enemies to muster on the other side of the Colorado - which brings me to my second point:

The NCR has to expand fast or else risk the Legion growing stronger. Get this: If the NCR hadn't started expanding to New Vegas, the Legion would've arrived, conquered Hoover Dam and Vegas and would be nigh-unstoppable once they reach New Cali. It was by luck that the NCR managed to halt Caesar's conquests when they got there, which eventually resulted in House reigniting his master plan.

So my points are: The NCR wants what's best for the world, and the best requires making a few sacrifices - non-lethal ones, mind you. If I were living in New Vegas and had to choose between an evil, slave-running totalitarian empire, a technocratic, plutocratic dictator or an egalitarian democracy with some corruption and expansionist issues, I wouldn't hesitate a second: NCR all the way.

Your thoughts?

no you know whos allowed

anyone else here ever like stop smoking for a week or two and then smoke when your tolerance is down?

I haven't done it since two fridays ago, but my roommate and I split the cost of an eighth today for that cliche stoner holiday tomorrow

Do you agree with this?

For real, they're a thriving company managing two huge franchises. And Sep7 is more active right now then they are. I expected that place to have near Bnet levels of activity.

Seems like people don't like forums anymore
