I'm suspicious of KR0, because Rabbit (of the GWJ podcast) loves it and I tend to hate any game he gushes about. Maybe one day.

Got you. I thought it was rather weak even for what it was. Johnny Cash is great, but that's not what I want out of my Mass Effect. That could've been a trailer for el generico game 32. Give me some good Jack Wall and show me people talking.

The Mass Effect reveal was not a reveal, it was just the announcement. Everyone knew it was happening, BioWare had even talked about it openly, but I don't think they had made an official announcement earlier. There's no way they're not doing MP though. That thing was crazy popular.

From reddit: I'm back on board -
So far I've only (re)bought The Witcher because I can't find my disc. I think I might Talos Principle as well.

Potential spoiler for returning character -
The intro to Dark Souls is that kind of cheesy garbage (though not quite to this level), but I like most of the character dialogue. It fits the game somehow.

I couldn't help but notice that the lady presenting Mirror's Edge got more applause than the actual game did. Come on people.

I haven't compared them side by side, but yeah when the footage started I thought it was just the old PS3 footage.

I just want this game to be good, to exceed my expectations. Please be good. Please don't have any uninspired areas, bullshit enemies or fast travel from the start. -

Supposedly Miyazaki is directing this one, which makes me slightly more excited for it but I wonder how the hell he has had time for that. I also heard it's a continuation of DSII lore wise which bums me out I have a hard time getting excited about that. -
For something like the past three or four E3s I've been without internet (usually spend that time at a summer house) and missed the whole thing. Is there a good way of following it without dedicating hours and hours to it? (I'm guessing no)

I know Outcast is a beloved game, but is it playable today? I remember it getting very good reviews back in the day but I tried it on a PC demo station (back when stores still had those!) and it seemed boring to kid me.

Why is XCOM complete the same price as Enemy Within when it includes Enemy Within?

Maybe we should have a thread to show off our crappy drawing skills, no skilled people allowed

He does the "crazy person on youtube shouting at the world" thing quite well

Dark Souls 2 (Dark Souls successor (Demon's Souls successor))

Potential Dark Souls 3 leak I want this game if it turns out to be amazing and exceeds all my expectations, otherwise I don't think I'm ready to play another good game that sticks to the same formula. I'm not sure it can exceed my expectations while sticking to the formula, which is the problem. -
Some old French hip-hop

I thought that was rather underwhelming. For instance (not that it matters one bit for the actual game) the dog wasn't all that well animated. You'd think after what, seven years(?), and tons of anticipation they'd invest a bit more in their reveal. I'm not the target audience though. That too.
-
Heh, I pre-ordered the last one and I still haven't gotten around to playing it D:

Bloodborne (Dark Souls 2 successor (Dark Souls successor (Demon's Souls successor)))
eot replied to melmer's topic in Video Gaming
Played a bit of this for the first time in a month (haven't had time to play anything) and it's pretty clear to me that the game didn't leave that much of a lasting impression. I think I'll finish this run I'm on (five bosses left) but right now I kinda want to go play Dark Souls. Also, unrelated to this, I noticed my PT download that I thought finished had actually stopped right before completion so I guess I'll never get to play that. Oh well. -
classic.jisho.org I don't like their redesign.

It varies a lot between different types of bread. The whiter the bread the faster it goes. Factory produced stuff is the worst in my experience. Yes, soda is repulsive if you haven't had it for a while. I mean, it's repulsive when the carbonation is gone too because then you feel what it actually tastes like.

I appreciate the advice. My thesis is research I suppose, but other than that no. It's mostly been higher level math / physics courses. I doubt I could do a PhD in the group I'm in now though simply because those spots don't open up very often. I'm also studying in my hometown and I'm somewhat keen on moving somewhere else and that's more of a gamble. I think starting at all and not stopping is more important than where you start. The Genki textbooks are good, Kim Tae's site is good, lang-8 is helpful for getting some practice actually expressing yourself. The speaking part is the hardest since you can't self study it the same way.

Lately I've been leaning more and more towards the PhD direction myself. I'm most of the way through my master's thesis project which I'm doing at the physics department here and it's been more fun than I expected. Getting to actually work with some PhD students makes it seem like a doable, enjoyable task rather than the nightmare hell I've been told about many times. Of course it depends on where you end up too. The people here are amazing and that matters a lot. Also, I have no idea what I'd do otherwise because I didn't exactly pick my courses with a career in mind (or my master's project for that matter). I know all the career focused people study things with applicability, get internships every summer, go to job fairs to network with companies and all that crap. Then they all end up as programmers or consultants anyway.
