Note: you can place waypoints on objects and people. If you then throw the object and press the waypoint button twice, you get a pretty good killcam

You should have changed it to Hoist the Colours just to make it appropriately sinister and eldritch. In my headcanon the ocean is filled with krakens and lovecraftian horrors.

At several times in the game it really does feel like Peter Molyneux's conception of moral good is "ignores the 1001 reasons why it would feel so, SO good to murder absolutely everyone because it would be so easy and they're just begging for it" I'm... not sure what to make of it all tbqh.

It's pretty amazing how these guys get actual divine intervention for free wood, then insist that God needs to provide free food as well.

Trees won't spread if they're planted too close to buildings. The green cloud just shows that they're in a spot that lets them make more trees.

That and I was under the impression at the time that every green cloud meant more tiny little seedlings.

benjoyce posted:Ah, I <3 that tune. I'll never forgive the Italian version of Monkey Island 3 for cutting that out. When the LP was going on quite a lot of people were gushing about The Song coming up and I was all "  I remember no song ". Then the LP reached The Song.I kinda like B&W from a concept standpoint. Then again, it's the first time Molineaux happened, right? First time one can forgive, the serial repeats not so much; after the fifth time you kinda have to realize you're deliberately scamming people.

Okay Lizard, serious question - how old is your mouse? Because the control issues may be user-caused or hardware caused. You might wanna check it for dust ALSO: CUSTOM TATTOOS quote:Begin by running Paint (Start->Accessories->Paint) or your favorite graphics program. Lastly, a small technicality - that tree that the leash tutorial uses? It's immortal. Meaning if you set it on fire it will burn forever. So if you want to have your own eternally burning tree and go full-Moses then there's your target. double nine fucked around with this message at 14:21 on Aug 25, 2016 |

I think what they mean is that this is the first time Molineaux prominently was involved in advertising and over promising game features that didn't make it into the game. And yes, this was the first case of that happening.

I believe this is the first time he happened without someone around to keep him in check though, if that's what was meant. As for tree fertility, knowing about it does come in handy if you don't know about a vastly superior (and hilarious) thing you can do, which is entirely likely given that said thing is only ever mentioned in loading screen tips... well, more about that when it actually becomes possible.

Yeah, I meant Molineaux being Molineaux, i.e. promising the Moon, a manned mission to Europa and a pony during development and then delivering nowhere near those lofty goals.

I never quite managed to finish Black and White, but I'm actually pretty fond of the sequel. It leaves in plenty of the intuitive/gesture-based touches, but it also brings back the interface and lets you select which behaviors to reinforce with your creature. It also let me win by crushing enemy troops with rocks and then building crazy-huge cities, which is totally my jam when it comes to these mixed city/combat sims.
