    What do American's call their shadow ministers?
  2. DOOM

    It really reminded me of Jedi Knight Academy. Probably the first game I played on Xbox live. I guess that was actually 2003, but I was close enough!
  3. DOOM

    That's totally fair, I like to get into a groove and find one or two weapons I'm comfortable with, then just stick with them. In other news, I played some of the multiplayer... It's not awful. It does feel like something from about 2004 though. I just tested it to see if my internet would work, since Destiny won't connect, and while I still have connection issues, once I'm in a match it works fine. I also want the trophies...I know.

    Yeah I have the explosive mod for the shotgun and the rocket mod for the rifle. The "thing" (I don't want to say problem, because it's not a problem, but I also don't know if I like it) with the rocket mod for the rifle is that it completely changes how that gun is used. Turning it from a mid range good accuracy weapon to a close-mid range spray and pray gun. The problem with the gauss rifle is that nothing else fills its role. The turret chain gun is useful, but you lose the ability to regen health, so it's extremely situational. None of this is enough to put me off the game, the fast paced action is what I love about it.
  5. DOOM

    Great post. I also have started to become a bit...let's say disappointed with the weapons. Certain weapons just feel useless in the latter stages of the game. The initial shotgun for example. It just does not do enough damage to warrant it taking up a slot on my weapon selection wheel. The heavy/small arms variants that use the same ammo also kind of irritates me. I really like the fully upgraded pulse rifle with the heat explosion. It's super fun to use. I also like the sniper variant of the heavy pulse gun. I have to choose, which kinda sucks, because it's not really a meaningful choice. I've also found I have essentially settled into a rut of pulse rifle/missile launcher/heavy machine gun. I don't really care about any other weapons any more.
  6. The Witcher 3: What Geralt Wants

    I think if you space them out, then you don't actually notice that.

    That's the problem with just ignoring the public. You turn a lot of people radical, and judging from the increase in racist incidents since the vote, the radical is ready to come out in the most disgusting way possible. I do really wish there was some sort of "minimum majority" for referendums. 51% is not a majority. It's the same result you'd get from flipping a coin 64 million times.
  8. The Witcher 3: What Geralt Wants

    Some of the monster quests are great! Many have great little stories attached, although I will agree the vast majority are go to x use detective vision, go to y, kill monster.
  9. The Witcher 3: What Geralt Wants

    I'm absolutely loving Blood and Wine. I didn't really find jumping back into the combat too bad, it's a fairly simple system. Circle to dodge, square to kill. With a few bells and whistles added here and there which you can pick up slowly again.

    What an absolute failure. I guess we just have to deal with the result and make the best of it.
  11. German hour on voice chat

    I should get in on this. My German is currently limited to 1 through 10 then 20 through 100.
  12. General Video Game Deals Thread

    Did you just play Helldivers alone? I lost interest after a while because randoms don't like stealth tactics.
  13. DOOM

    I'm not much of an FPS guy either. I like them occasionally, but DOOM doesn't feel like an fps. It feels more like a character action game in first person with guns.
  14. DOOM

    DOOM is like the FPS version of Bayonetta.

    Spiderman looks pretty cool also. A good Spiderman game would blow most other super hero games out of the water. Agents of Mayhem, while I've not seen much info is probably going to be rad. Other than that, yeah Titanfall 2, Zelda and Horizon look good. Honestly, The Last Guardian looks pretty bad. That trailer did not make me interested at all.
  16. DOOM

    No problems yet...but then again, I'm on PS4.
  17. Idle Cook Club - Veggie Feeds-me: My Body Is Ready

    Drive-thrus are pretty ubiquitous. The local McDonalds to me in Manchester had a Drive-thru. The local McDonalds in Ulm has a Drive-Thru. I think the key to fast food is that it has to be from a franchised outlet.
  18. DOOM

    I bought this last night and managed to fit in an hour before work. Holy shit it's fun. Just shoot, punch, snap necks, die, repeat. Surprised it isn't getting more attention, it's glorious!
  19. E3 2016: Content Experience

    The demo is of the opening/tutorial area, I believe called the plateau.
  20. DOOM

    Holy shit that's a fun soundtrack. Looks like I've found a new training play list. Super interesting videos too.
  21. I Had a Random Thought (About Video Games)

    Is there a way to sell keys to games? I have a DOOM key, but it's for PC and I'd like to sell it in order to fund some PS4 purchases.
  22. TITANFLAPS 2

    That would be awesome. Set Titan way-point mode. It'd also be great for setting up cross-fires if you could pause the travel. Fighting an enemy who ducks around a corner only to find your titan waiting for them?
  23. I Had A Random Thought...

    I'm in the same office as the vice head of the dept. Every 5 minutes a student comes and asks me where she is. Every 5 minutes I tell them I have no idea. Why do people assume I'm her protector? I'm just sitting in my office working. If she leaves I don't ask her where she's going! Absolutely drives me crazy. I feel like I need a sign on the door saying "No, I don't know where she is, go away." The worst part is the lab isn't even that big. Just go look in the lab!
  24. E3 2016: Content Experience

    Really? Looks fine to me.
  25. E3 2016: Content Experience

    I'm surprised that I'm impressed by Zelda. It looks like a complete departure from what Nintendo normally do. I'm actually enthused for this game.
