  1. I could have sworn we've linked that before. Still love it. A pretty fantastic video for it is here. And the apparent... sequel?
  2. Life

    Van Gogh is dead for a reason man. Don't meddle in forces you can't comprehend.
  3. GOTY

    Die. If I had to pick a single game, Crusader Kings 2. But I don't, so list will come later!
  4. Movie/TV recommendations

    You're just a nutter.
  5. Dishonored 2: Corvo's Comeuppance

    I am actually contemplating purchasing Crysis 3 entirely to play the Predator Movie Reenactment mode.
  6. Dishonored 2: Corvo's Comeuppance

    It's funny you should say that because when Assassin's Creed 1 came out I used to muse about a multiplayer mode where two or three people were assassins and the rest were guardsmen, and now look where we are. Even then AC MP doesn't quite reach what I want, which is Thief Deathmatch where being a pontz is punished by immediate ban.
  7. Dishonored 2: Corvo's Comeuppance

    That's been kind of a big problem with the revitalization of stealth RPGs in the last few years. DX:HR also suffered from a multitude of lethal options and a pretty limited supply of non-lethal ones, with higher difficulties making it even harder to find ammo for the non-lethal options. At this point I just kinda hope Thief 4 isn't terrible.

    More like Developed By A Nutter.
  9. Elemental Fallen Enchantress

    The original was dull, lifeless and unfun to play. FE is actually remarkably similar to FFH but lacks a few of the funner flavors of the mod. Which is odd considering that the FFH guy worked on it. I'm not sure it's worth $40, but if you're hurting for a fantasy TBS you can't go too wrong for $20 if you're the type that can weave your own narrative into a strategy game. Probably don't read below this if you don't care about the argument about Wardell. What I'm reading is that you're defending someone who has all but acknowledged the charges leveled against him through his interactions on Twitter and forums after the fact. Like, are you just not aware what a piece of work this guy is? "If I can't be a dick in the company I founded, I'll just shutter it." "Get used to terrible 'humor' or work somewhere else." http://draginol.joeu...t_to_you/page/1 He defended his sexual 'humor' as "Family Guy jokes". Even if the allegation aren't true (highly unlikely) before those allegations he is still scum, and you're still defending him.

    While I agree (I think?) that you shouldn't simply hate a guy because it's cool, are you saying we shouldn't find him reprehensible for what he did? Because that's what it sounds like.
  11. The Nintendo Wii U is Great Thread

    Giant Bomb is playing basically all of the WiiU launch titles today. http://www.giantbomb.com/chat/
  12. DOTA 2

    The usual way to change that kind of thing is to go into Settings -> Interface -> Language (in the Steam client), but it also typically requires a reinstall of the game. DotA 2 might handle it a little better.
  13. DOTA 2

    It translates into whatever language library they're using, yes.
  14. Elemental Fallen Enchantress

    So hey, defending actual sexual harassment is not cool.

    There's only one Christmas carol worth singing. https://www.youtube....h?v=fAimJ-EXOF8 Who broke the fucking YouTube links, is that our coal for Christmas Doug? Was it you?
  17. Music of the games of video

    It's really just troubling that these haven't been linked yet.
  18. History in Video Games

    What's wrong with it is them trying to absolve themselves preemptively and it just comes across as skeezy. It's even worse because they actually cover a lot of subjects from the period with, excusing obvious artistic license, a fair bit of delicacy and sense.
  19. History in Video Games

    You know, except for the hilarious "This game was developed by a multiracial team of many creeds etc etc bullshit" screen at bootup.
  20. Actually I'm 99% sure that's one of the qualifiers for "good" in terms of food.
  21. Curiosity – What's Inside the Cube?

    Clearly it's going to be a biting commentary on how you've wasted all this time.
