  1. Cartoons!

    i started watching The Venture Bros. because Brock Samson was in poker night 2 and he seemed cool plus i think Patrick Warburton has a cool voice, i really like it, it is set in a world where superheroes and supervillains exist everywhere and there are specific rules that villains and heroes must play by (explaining why super villains don't just kill the heroes) and you can tell everything about it is done out of love for comics, cartoons and tv shows about superheroes and supervillains
  2. Saturday Morning Streams

    i don't know how to play solitaire
  3. Idle Thumbs 117: Sir! Sir!

    i think that is a problem that most open world games have, especially randomly generated ones, maybe if they added some more crafting type things to do or maybe survival things it will add enough so that there is always something to do, maybe its a bad comparison, but it's a bit like minecraft or terraria and now starbound in that the more things they add the more there is to do on a moment to moment basis

    miles dyson's death scene is one that sticks with me if you are going to play Dwarf Fortress maybe you should watch a few tutorial videos before you play, and use lazy newb pack
  5. Games giveaway

    SecretAsianMan well i think i got 2 or 3 of them, words just aren't my forte
  6. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    yeah i guess I'm a sucker, pirating games is the smart thing to do
  7. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    sort of, but i really mean that it doesn't matter if you think the salesman is using manipulative tactics if you actually get exactly what you want and for a good price
  8. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    but that car is 100% guaranteed to be in perfect working condition and if a design flaw is later found it will be automatically fixed for free, so it doesn't matter if the dodgy salesman thinks an air freshener is a free extra, the car is going to be perfect anyway
  9. Saturday Morning Streams

    i think he had fun doing all the voices though
  10. Saturday Morning Streams

    don't have an iphone, but it's just pure procrastination coincidence that i missed the hours it was actually streaming
  11. Saturday Morning Streams

    i am seeing the stream email just a bit too late recently
  12. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    steam sale, more like a pirates chance to return some booty to the ones they feel are most deserving (and cheap)
  13. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    yeah i think with sales plus selling my cards i spent the same amount but got so much more, i never usually do this, but i haven't even installed some of the games i have bought yet, they will probably get played in a week or two
  14. Let's Draw Video Games

    yeah i need to draw more games, but i don't like to force it, so it will happen if/when it happens
  15. making friendship a realistic mechanic is an almost impossible task let alone love, i think you could do it in a the walking dead game type way, but making friendship/love a systems based thing would probably require multiple psychological studies and incredibly complex AI development before it becomes anything more than just perform favorable action and get +1 on the friendship bar, because common interests, personal history and world views are generally the reason why people get along well or not and to actually make those things a system you could simulate would be incredibly hard
  16. if you load a game the enemies respawn and you lose your XP you also learn from your failure
  17. Steam Trading Card

    just goes to show that the XP system on steam means nothing, that person hasn't even played most of the games
  18. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    make a new game that isn't called counter strike = problem solved, your problem is wanting an established game to be different game, if you want to play a different game play a different game or a modified version of the game, counter strike is its own unique thing, there are about a million other FPS games to choose from so play them if you don't like counter strike, it's like saying "how about they make a new battlefield game with no vehicles and a really small map that is 5V5 and you don't respawn" how about no, that is counter strike not battlefield
  19. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    they are some good ideas for an FPS game and some are in CS:GO but some of them are not for CS eg. bigger maps and more players = not counterstrike, it would just be a different game with more players and bigger maps, being able to clamber up obstacles is a great idea for an FPS game but it will be exploited in CS, they have tried physics objects in CS:source (mainly in custom maps) and they were either exploited or unpredictable (and there are doors that open), it already has bullet penetration, and destructible environments are obviously a cool idea but probably not for CS, CS is a game about precision and repetition the rounds last about one and a half minutes and everything is predictable, I'm not even a hardcore CS fan but the game you are talking about wouldn't be a CS sequel it would be a different game, like how swat 4 isn't a CS sequel but it is similar game
  20. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    yeah it is just another iteration of the game but it is the best one, but really i don't even know what "Counterstrike 2" would be if it wasn't just another iteration of counterstrike???
  21. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    in my opinion CS:GO is the best CS (i have played them all)
  22. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    it's because cards have the potential to be really expensive things but the cheap things are just cheap and with no potential to be better
  23. Steam Summer Getaway Sale

    even though i own both hitman and XCOM (hitman not on steam) i voted XCOM because i figured a newer game on sale would be more beneficial to the company that made it, plus i figured a sale may get more people who don't play games like XCOM to give it a try, i voted antichamber this time because i own Incredipede and both incredipede and universe sandbox are cheap anyway
  24. Steam Trading Card

    i have basically decided to be the miner or raw materials collector (cards) of this economy i sell the cards so other people can make the badges etc. and i guess once i have ran out of drops i will just have to wait for booster packs, i guess it is sort of a loyalty reward for playing/buying games on steam that basically gives you a discount on games, it's a bit like an free to play MMO (or a bit like eve) where there will be a few people who actually pay into the economy to buy stuff, while free players like me just play the game and occasionally get cards to put into the economy
  25. Steam Trading Card

    yeah, and at the small prices of the market £0.01 equalling $0.01 and not being able to properly match or just slightly undercut prices it makes a big difference
