So this is happening in about four hours. If you missed the Steam sale and would like to join, I found this sale: http://impulsedriven.com/products/ESD-IMP-W2875 We'll play Warband or Fire & Sword depending on what people have. Fire & Sword has a nice co-op mode that could at least be good practice.

toblix'd.

What was the one with cowboys in space? It's on the ti..p of my tongue.

They'll just grab the nearest human for a battery when the previous one runs out (of blood).

God I hate the way that effect is used. Tilt-shift lenses can tilt the image plane to extend depth-of-field when your subject isn't perpendicular to your line of sight. They can also shift the image plane to counter effects on perspective when your camera isn't level. They are not silly toys that make everything look like miniatures, though the tilt functionality can be used that way. Yeah, I know nobody cares

I saved Doug.

Erm, I guess I wasn't clear with toblix then It's on Saturday!

Okay, so I'm prog_hume on Skype, call me 8pm GMT on Saturday if you want to play. That should be 3pm EST. Or give me your Skype name on Steam (brkl) and I'll add you to the group call. If a group turns up.

Compare that to the Two Guys From Andromeda video...

Really depressing to hear about the voice. It's such an old complaint. I've never come across distractingly bad voice compression apart from Telltale games.

Chris managed $130,000 out of this community! That's some impressive community managing as far as I'm concerned

We just changed our email operator and somehow managed to miss almost a day's emails in the process, so I missed the Steam key

Ben There, Dan That etc. http://store.steampowered.com/app/37400/ For cheap. Though I suppose everyone's already bought this.

Sounds highly optimistic. I'll put Saturday in the Steam group and hope we get enough people. I would be prepared to get Napoleonic (the setting does interest me more), but it's best to keep these as cheap as possible IMO. EDIT: Oh, of course I can't make the event. Saturday 8pm GMT!

Same

Porn is consensual but I wouldn't feel comfortable watching it when she's around. And the game is full of women designed by some dude to look like and dress like porn actresses, along with other suspect stuff like happy prostitutes servicing soldiers.

Sorry about the spoiler, fixed it.

Oh, sure. But one-dimensional characters, realistic or not, do not make for very interesting viewing. I don't know if the books make a case for Eddard Stark not being completely stupid , but in the series he comes across as something of a dimwit and certainly not interesting.

I'm just waiting for Geoffrey to grow another dimension. He's the flattest character on television and apparently only there to make the show difficult to watch.

Huh, I tried looking at the most popular ones and figured they'd at least work.

Cheers. I used Bordercraft, which was nice apart from the inventory graphics. I haven't played Minecraft for ages so I have old version and I couldn't be bothered to look for a new one.

Huh, apparently none of the mods I can find are actually compatible with the newest version (the one that Steam installs) of Warband. European video games!

Well, I don't really see us playing competitively... There are also a ton of mods, of course. First we have to set a date.

Huh! I was looking forward to ride-by shootings. But I'm okay with Warband too. I doubt many of us have the Napoleonic addon. What's so terrible about With Fire & Sword?

What's a nice texture pack?
