  1. Yeah that's pretty much it. Also I just noticed I used "at the end of the day" twice in my last post. Fucking kill me now guys.
  2. BattleCry

    Wait. There are energy cannons?! What the fuck is the point of banning gunpowder then? WHAT.
  3. BattleCry

    I could imagine a gunpowder-less world in which someone manufactured an one-handed, easily-loadable crossbow! Maybe.
  4. That's exactly what I was trying to get at, but failed, when I said I think a game COULD address it. But Ubisoft is very obviously not the developer to pull it off, because all they really want to do, at the end of the day, is make gamey games. Ain't nothin' wrong with wanting to make gamey games, but you have to be aware of your limits, and I don't think Ubisoft is, in this particular case. There's a few really interesting concepts in Watch Dogs, including this, and the invasion of privacy in general. But at the end of the day, it's just (allegedly! I haven't played it) another GTA clone. It's a real shame.
  5. BattleCry

    Yeah it's frustrating to find a really sweet multiplayer game and watch as it dies in your arms. Of course, maybe this game isn't going to be good. We can only hope...
  6. The Dancing Thumb (aka: music recommendations)

    New Devin Townsend?? I'm sold.
  7. Again! I think that's the point. You're explaining things to me that I'm already well aware of. I don't believe Ubisoft had any ill intentions. I do believe they're overstepping their bounds.
  8. I don't disagree. I don't think Watch Dogs is the right game to handle this well. I'm just sayin'. I think that's the point. I also think that a different game trying to do most of the exact same things Watch Dogs does (regarding such things as privacy, I mean) COULD do that, were it to properly address it.
  9. I think that's the point.
  10. His appearance is justified every time he appears by being a weird skinny spider human dastardly devil type character!
  11. Batmazement: Knightly Man Bruce

    I've wanted a 60s Batman style Arkham game since the first Arkham. Like a full game! Nothing would make me happier. Just give me all that cheese. I want Batman running around with a cartoon style bomb over his head. DO IT.
  12. Cartoons!

    Baman and Piderman is pretty good. I haven't watched it in a long time, but I really enjoyed it when I did.
  13. Hey it's finally been announced that Paolo has joined Campo Santo! He's a cool dude. I made a game with him at DigiPen. He's way super good at graphics. U: I told him about Idle Thumbs when we went to DigiPen, so basically I got him this job.
  14. anime

    Haha I saw that figure. It's fucking absurd and I kind of want it just because it's fucking absurd.
  15. Also Dagon is some sort of sea deity in Lovecraft's story, "Dagon", and probably has all sorts of tentacles and shit. okay i'm done
  16. Dagon is also a wand (aka a phallic object) in Dota 2. The user shoots "magic" (GET IT) at another unit.
  17. But Dagon is a fertility god, so Bonerdagon sorta makes sense, huh?
  18. Life

    Dang you got lucky I've been practicing Ticket to Ride DAILY.
  19. Life

    I got in and was going to buy passes for me and my friend but the stupid website refused to accept my credit card. Afterward I bought a game on Steam to prove my card worked... and it did work. Fuck. So I'm not going this year! I'm not too upset about not going, but I am pretty upset that it's because the website is a piece of shit.
  20. Life

    My friend just got through the queue and 4-day passes are already sold out. Hah.
  21. The E3 Retrospectapalooza

    More accurately, they'll tease BG&E2 and then a week later state that they're currently not working on BG&E2. I GOT IT!!!
  22. Idle Workouts

    I don't think it's pretentious either! I'm new to all of this so I'll take any advice. The problem is I don't really have money and I don't know how expensive it'll be to do all this or to buy the right shoes now. I think one of my feet is flat, and the other is not, if I remember correctly. Probably my left foot is the flat one, since it's the one that hurt when I ran yesterday.
  23. Half-Life 3

    The controller is all I care about, so I'm happy with them taking as long as necessary to make it awesome.
  24. Cartoons!

    AHHHH that's so good
