dont bother with supplements. eat right and do the right exercises and you'll get big. nothing beats hard work and proper diet.
I pack on assloads of protein-rich foods and fuckhueg amounts of food every day and I don't gain any weight at all. If I was eating a "balanced" diet I'd be even thinner than I am now. My metabolism is such that I'm naturally very thin, and I want to counteract that. I'm trying to look good, not live forever.
are you doing the right exercises though? if you arent putting in the work you wont see gains. you need to kick your ass day in and day out.

the way i see it is, you can argue about TLOU being good or not all you want. ill grant that the ability to enjoy a game is subjective and everyone has different tastes. but, at the same time, can you really, in good faith, place TLOU on a list of all-time greats? it wasnt anywhere near the best game of its year. only a few 2013 games can begin to claim "all time" status: guacamelee, DOTA 2, and hotline miami.
but it is certainly one of the best of the last generation
i disagree strongly.

Then we're at an impasse. Agree to disagree?
obviously.

call me an elitist all you want, but the reality is that i try to look objectively at games, without letting new game or nostalgia goggles blind me to the realities of their existence. the last of us didnt do anything special with regards to game mechanics, maps, interactive combat, or role playing elements. it was an ok zombie game framed by a decent plot (of course, video game writing tends to be complete shit most of the time, but perspective is important here; it's pretty good writing, comparitively) with great production values. those things came together in a nice framework when you consider the advertising hype put behind it. it was bound to go viral, because it was accessible and catered to popular interest. in that regard, it was a wild success.. but that isn't a unique quality, not by a long shot.

TLOU is uninspired, poorly-realized trash for the casual generation.

That's just elitist bullshit, and you know it. You can dislike the game without trying to promote yourself as some enlightened game-quality guru.
is it? or do i just have standards?

TLOU wasnt even in the top 10 best games the year it was released, which was a pretty weak year in the first place.

Name the top 10 best games of 2013.

Spoiler
This is going to be interesting.
itd be presumptuous to make a top 10 list but here are 10 games that were better than TLOU from 2013:
hotline miami
bioshock infinite
guacamelee
far cry 3: blood dragon
dust: an elysian tail
animal crossing: new leaf
dota 2
shin megami tensei iv
payday 2
spelunky


and lets keep going, shall we?
diablo iii
arma iii
gta v
beyond: two souls
the wolf among us
pokemon x/y
ac: black flag
the stanley parable

TLOU is incredibly overrated. its nowhere near "all time" status.

Considering you have games like GTA V, Bioshock Infinite, and Payday 2 on your list, I think we're going to fundamentally disagree here. We clearly have different taste and standards for video games.
on that note, we agree. i dont even think most of those games are any good. its just a testament to how poorly i think of TLOU.

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 and I don't buy a game for average gameplay that doesn't really do anything different. Especially in a single player heavy game.

To me TLOU is nothing more than a formulaic zombie story with rather average gameplay.
this is exactly it. it was an ok game with good production value. a 5/10.

« on: January 31, 2015, 06:23:34 PM »
It's been sitting in my computer for a few years seeing no use. Is it any fun to play? Anything you do to keep it entertaining?

Minecraft used to be fun without those 9 12 year old kids that just goes on SkyDoesMinecraft's videos. Minecraft sucks now.

Yeah, exactly my problem with it. The community is a complete shambles. I remember it back in early 2012, those were the days.
2010 was the best time to play minecraft tbh

I didn't discover it until 2012, it was around the time where the game had sold 6 million copies.
ive played since alpha, and the community definitely took a downturn when it hit "mainstream" status. im a fan of the simpler nature of the older versions of the game. it was really relaxing
