Oh god Halo 5 or No Mans Sky...I'm going with Halo 5 since it's a large AAA game which a large studio manged to fuck up so badly that the game shipped with less or almost the same amount of content as Halo CE. I want to say Battlefront but we already knew it was going to be shit, but for Halo 5 on the other hand I don't think anybody saw the campaign being shit along with the amount of missing content at launch.
None of those are even contenders for the worst game released since 2010. Battlefront was a technical amd audiovisual masterpiece and is arguably one of the best looking and sounding games on the market. Most complaints you can put forth about it are angry fanboy complaints that it isn't like the originals - as a game, it's functionally mediocre but looks fantastic, and is a perfect realisation of the Star Wars universe. Halo 5 had a shit story but at least the developers launched it in a functional state. I despise it and consider it one of the worst, if not the worst game I've ever bought, but it's far from being the worst content brought out in the past few years. NMS would be boring and forgotten about alongside most releases, like Verb said, had it not had a massive hype train. At least the devs were trying to do something cool with it and it still looks amazing from an artistic standpoint. Most of the complaints (Aside from the perfectly valid PC optimisation ones) are in the same vein as the angry fanboy ones for Battlefront. Were they not there, it would have been likely placed alongside games like The Division in the long run, abandoned and forgotten. If you seriously think any of those are in the running for the worst game of the decade then you don't follow game releases.

I think Chief Collection is up there for past few years. It was pretty a much a golden ticket for 343i to regain peoples' faith that was lost with their prior missteps by packing the four main games, all the multiplayers, all the dlcs, new graphics and sound for H2 and so forth. It launched completely and utterly broken and only the minimal amount was done post-launch to get it barely functional before it was swept under the rug and Microsoft tried to forget about it.
343 had one job in the entire thing because of how outsourced it was and they still managed to fuck up. The only reason anyone plays it now is because at least buggy Halo 2 and 3 are better than 5.
I'm not sure if it would count for many as its' a bunch of remakes and what-have-you, but I think MCC is definitely one of the defining hallmarks of the modern games industry. Overhyped, rushed products with expectations the studio couldn't deliver, buggy or broken launches and very little post-launch support beyond the bare minimum, and very little developer communication with the fans. It's kind of sad that a game just functioning as it should is now praised by some people, when it shouldn't even need to be brought up in the first place.
I mean, at least with No Mans Sky they were trying something new, even if they failed. At least with Destiny they updated the game with post-launch support and continuous updates and stuff to keep people engaged after a shitty launch. MCC is pretty much the definition of incompetence, which is utterly unacceptable when buying a AAA title.

If I got into miniatures I'd just want them as figures to look cool on my shelf. I don't know anyone who does tabletop gaming.
I wanna get some of those Halo fleet miniatures at some point too. The CCS, CAS and CSVs and the UNSC Frigates look so goddamn cool.
I don't know about other games, but for 40k the GW retail locations double as places to meet up with other players. My local store has two tables set up in back specifically for playing.
There isn't a GW in my town, as far as I'm aware. I'm not really too bothered though. Tabletop wargames seem like the kind of thing you need like, a week off to play properly. Minor question: do you have to paint the models specific colours or can you make up your own troops?

Can't you drive the half hour to from the very top to find out?
From where I live in West Yorkshire, it's about the middle of Great Britain. 6 hour drive to the south coast, assumedly a similar one to the north coast in Scotland (haven't been though).
So it's great if I end up moving to Portsmouth for uni (not my first choice though) because I'm still a day's travel away from home.
Then your roads are shit because in Texas I can go the same distance in half the time.
Yeah surprisingly when most of the roads were built a couple hundred years ago they didn't really have cars in mind.
We overhauled our roads in the 40s and built national travel tiered roads.
I guess you guys didn't have enough money.
Yeah. I mean, the country being really small meant there wasn't much need at the time. Of course, that's sort of biting us in the arse now because there's too many cars and not enough road now, and they have to close big sections all the time to add new lanes.

I've been teaching myself Blender recently. I've made a couple of basic spaceships, and I'm not moving onto texturing.
Though I've got a couple drawings I want to try and model at some point.

You aren't wrong. Time is based on our perception, and it can be distorted by certain things, like drugs. Psychedelics such as LSD can slow time down, making hours feel like weeks.
bro how much acid does a nigga need to feel something like that
It depends on the person, but a dosage of 120ug+ is a safe bet.
You could also travel at about 3x10^7 metres per second to achieve a similar effect.

your first mistake is watching supergirl
Yeah but I like flash and arrow so I have to watch it so I'll get all the crossovers.
I figured it wouldn't matter, but Arrow/Flash crossovers are actually pretty confusing if you don't watch both.
Yeah, that's part of why I stopped watching Flash. Too many crossover events about other people I don't care about to keep me invested. Though I honestly wasn't all that keen on Flasg S2 in general. There's only a certain number of ways you can make an enemy who can run fast before they get all kind of stale.

Eh. I sort of realised/ accepted a long time ago that everything dies at some point, and there's no point crying over it because its waste of time and it won't change anything.
It sucks, but I'm not going to let something like that affect how I live my life even for a day. I know, at least, anyone close enough for me to care about would expect me to be able to get on with business.

Water gives other things the property of being wet
It is not wet itself
Like how fire can't be on fire
Fire IS on fire.
Things that give other things properties can not have those properties itself you faggot
I guess ice isn't cold, then
Well it is possible to have warm ice, or even ice on fire.

Oh good, just found out the hard way that the Vault Tech dlc breaks the Memory Den quest and places a vault door in the way of the brain pathway when you're inside the memories. So when you reach the Vault memory, it's impossible to get around it.
wait... seriously?
what platform?
I'm on Xboner, not seeing many people talking about it though.
I just managed to get around it by downloading a mod that increases jump height and lets you jet pack with no jet pack, letting me just jump over it.
So if it's an issue on PS4 then good luck, you have to apparently know of it beforehand and not install vault tech dlc till after that quest. If you have it on already and uninstall it the door stays there.
Might not be a common bug. You'd be best reporting it on the bethnet forums or something.

What happened to pokemon go? I haven't heard about it in months.
Not complaining, mind - that shit was fucking annoying. Just wondering because one minute it was all over the fucking place and the next it just sort of.. stopped.
-Normies lost interest
-Most of the Pokemon fanbase cares more about the next entries in the series more
so it was just a gimmick that quickly lost any lasting appeal? makes sense

So chrome just updated on my computer and it brought all the shitty changes that no one asked for, as expected by bigger developers (Like making it so backspace no longer goes back on the page).
Anyway, that combined with each update chrome gets making the browser run slower and slower on my really old laptop (funnily enough I can run photoshop cs5 fine for the most part but fucking google chrome makes it lag unbearably), I'm pretty much done. So I'm open to suggestions as for what browser to switch to (not edge/ IE, though). Anything that runs well on older hardware/ isn't bloated with unnecessary crap would be nice, as would something I can switch all my bookmarks to. I'm thinking of going back to firefox as I used to years ago.
oh and if it's relevant I'm on W10. Not of my own volition, mind, my college's wifi won't connect to W7 operating systems for some stupid reason.
