It comes back to that thing I heard about where there was rumours or somethinh about a casual/ easy mode being added to DS and everyone flipped shit even though it wouldn't effect them in any way, shape or form.

It doesn't impact your experience playing, why does it matter.

I agree with verb

I get interrupted while playing games a lot and lack of pause would be awful

Verb when are you going to play New Vegas?
I hope soon

It's much better than FO3

yeah

I'm currently doing a playthrough now, but this time actually going the whole route rather than running down I95 and getting on the monorail. Dunno who I'm gonna fight for though. I've done NCR, House and Legion a shit ton and I don't feel like going for indy.
Don't do a runthrough as a play, be a person in the world. My current Skyrim playthrough is a semi-wealthy Orc who was left to die in the Reach, and had to resort to bounties and menial labor to buy a simple home. On the track to this, she became indebted to Molag Bal, and thus has done all she could to assist in his schemes to enslave mortals and to curry his favor.

I'm not very good at thinking of a character background and sticking to it.
I'm good at doing it in single-character RPGs, but games like Icewind Dale and Wasteland are hard to play because I have to juggle multiple characters in the same campaign.
A lot of the time in games, particularly Bethesda ones, there's too many things that take me out of the experience. Like, I'm always aware I'm playing a game so it's hard for me to ever really get into RPing a character.

I usually just decide "okay, this is the faction I'm gonna support" then do everything I can to make that faction as powerful as possible when it gets to Hoover Dam.
My last playthrough of NV had me siding House, but playing the Legion and NCR against each other to their boiling points; they both realize this too late, however, meaning that they are both barred from the penultimate victory.

That's pretty cool.

I remember I started a F4 playthrough and modded my start point and faction rep to be a gunner merc. I was going to do the game as a sort of worst possible ending type deal where I side with the institute, wreck shit with the NW raiders amd let the CoA take over far harbour. But then I had to reset my HDD and didn't feel like redownloading all my mods.

I was reminded that I made these posters after being given compliments on them by Ryan Lastimosa (Respawn's lead weapon artist).

This one I really like.

Labour's Holly Lynch has retained Halifax with an increased majority. In 2015 she had a majority of just 428 and now has a majority 5,376.

I like how May came to Halifax to do the conservative manifesto to try and get that 400 votes but it evidently didn't work at all

« on: June 09, 2017, 02:27:28 AM »

religious people always say stuff in a quasi-scientific way like "earth is perfect for life, one thing different about how we're aligned with the sun or whatever and earth couldn't support anything. How do we get that lucky without a god?"

and it's literally backwards thinking, we have all of this biology and life here because the earth is perfect. And if you look at how specific and perfect everything has to be before life can even start to form, it wouldn't be some big shock if we're the beginning and the end

odds of probability/ mokeys and typewriters

throw enough atoms together enough times and eventually something's got to work. Might take 13.4 billion years and a couple quadrillion galaxies each with a few million stars each but eventually something cohesive will form.

I've never really liked that explanation, just as a general thing. The idea that conditions on Earth, or even the laws of physics are created by somethign intelligent. I never like the idea that people think humans are more important than we actually are.

https://haloswallower.com/2017/06/08/leaked-report-reveals-343-to-announce-halo-world-championship-anime-tv-series-at-e3-2017/

Quote
The report, provided to Swallower by an off-the-record source, detailed the entirety of 343’s impending new reveal, from the teaser to a following speech from 343i CEO Bonnie Ross. The teaser will include anime characters playing an anime rendition of Halo 5: Guardians in a competitive Esports setting. The anime series will air on FOX this coming September, but an exact premiere date was not included in the report.

Bonnie Ross’s speech will reveal that the anime series is a replacement for the live action series that was to be directed by Steven Spielberg, according to the report. Furthermore, Ross will reveal that the series will be “family friendly” and will support up to four players on split-screen.

Microsoft’s presentation at E3 2017 will begin at 2 p.m. PDT on Sunday, June 11.

Wouldn't be surprising TBH

that would be really dumb

it was also crash and burn

You forgot these are the people that made:
-Halo: Escalation
-The Halo 5 Guardians Campaign
-Every Single Scout warthog variant
-Every single Mongoose variant
-the End of The Line sniper rifle
-The Warden Eternal

Also, you know the article is satire right?

didn't look at the source, but considering there was an esports anime recently it was certainly realistic that MS would try to cash in on that and try to raise brand awareness in grorious nihon at the same time

Marketing Xboxes to nips is like trying to sell bug spray to ants.

i know, but ms still tries anyway

You know that article just put the horrifying image in my head of Halo getting featured in SAO  with them having Kirito dual wielding energy swords.

All May had to do was not threaten to abolish the Human Rights Act just 3 days before the election. Glad she's getting BTFO.

That and not start watching what people do on the internet

« on: June 09, 2017, 12:22:30 AM »
Hammil's Joker is great but it would never translate into a live action film.
Have you ever seen him portray the Trickster live action?

It's simply downright wonderful.

The only thing I remember about Hamill's trickster is the cringe-worthy "I am your father" line.

Trading one villain for another eh?



friendship ended with May

Corbyn is my best friend now

I'd rather have a guy who is incompetent than a woman who wants to turn the country into a police state.

Hung parliament confirmed.

May fucked it.

Is she likely to get sacked? I don't really know how this works. Could we emd up having another election?
Yes and yes

She gave up the Conservative Party's first majority in 18 years, in just 2. She will most likely either step down outright, or slowly withdraw for stability.

The BIG issue is the Brexit talks happening in just 11 days. Odds are it's not going to happen now.
