If my Herculean ripped guy isn't going to sleep holding a phone or a tablet for 2 hours before finally going begrudgingly to sleep, this is junk. Herculean ripped guy with someone else's thin little arms, legs that don't match and a black head and neck.

That's a great graph since it shows that CIG isn't a competent game company by focusing on beta-stage work when they're still lagging far behind on the alpha and pre-alpha foundation needed to make that work… well… work. I don't expect that this was the point he was trying to make. Conspiratiorist posted:Chris only worked on the franchise as far WC3 He was a movie director for 4, and did almost nothing for 2, but like the Prophecies, it's usually connected with his name anyway. And you can bet your behind that whoever makes the “every game is different” argument will also believe that Chris has done all those games, so you'll need to address them in that context.

Reading through that r/ds/ beer thread and this one post really stood out for me (Beer made other good ones too) because it loving blows the whole 'you just don't understand game development' bullshit out of the water with a resounding 'okay, no I don't understand it, now give me my loving game or my money back'. Well done Beer https://www.reddit.com/r/DerekSmart/comments/5jjxcg/derek_smart_on_twitter_i_heard_that/dbhfqvx/

ArfJason posted:Hey guys you should all stop being super angry all the time and doxxing the people who anger you. First of all I dont understand why you are getting livid at a videogame thats not even out yet, their developers, or the people pointing out how unhealthy that is. Please stop reading 9001 pages long reddit posts of the game you hate, watching million hour long videos of people you talked about wanting to murder, following them on twitter, or internet stalking me + calling me a pedophile. Longer.

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Guys... I'm sorry. It's all my fault. Honestly though who wouldn't fall for your sweet talk?  This was an angle I don't think anybody thought of though, so bonus points for creativity! "Chris had the perfect idea at the outset, but other people talked him into expanding the scope so much the project became impossible. Chris tried to just meet their expectations, but even his magic touch could only do so much when faced with so many promises other people forced him to try and honor. If it wasn't for the bad people whispering into his ear, the tree of knowledge would be left unscathed and we would be blessed today. For shame, other people without proper vision! For shame!"

scrubs season six posted:If your primary exposure to American gun culture is via the internet you're probably getting a wildly distorted view. The type of people you see having internet slap fights in comments sections of news articles are generally the extremists on each side. So you come away with the impression that everyone in America is either a Berkeley hippy that wets themselves at the thought of a firearm, or a total nutjob that owns 30 ARs and masturbates constantly at the thought of shooting a burglar with or becoming Neegan after total societal collapse. There are literally people in this literal thread saying literal things literally like: ”I only have a glock and an AR-15 so i'm not a gun nut and don't know much about guns, but...” Stereotypes become stereotypes for a reason.

orcinus posted:Amazing. This is pretty much how people play these FPS games though, right? Zoomed in so nothing but a face covers the whole screen so you can watch it's nuances as it goes through with the fighting and such. I thought the best part of that video was that any time they showed gameplay it was janky and a bit jerky and awkward. But that face was ok. Can't wait until the ideas/code underneath pipeline kicks in and ideas just immediately become coded out and perfect.

Maybe I'm doing it wrong but I don't grit my teeth when shooting. I try to pretty much keep a totally neutral and non-tightened expression. I wonder if CIG is going to steal from Kojima where if you shoot your machine gun too long your guy starts to yell. Not that it will be in David Hayters soothing tones, but I know Chris is always looking for the next great idea to Archer up himself.

That's all fine, but you do realize that in any other country this would very much categorize you as a gun nut, right? Disclaimer: I'm not anti-gun-ownership, i've got nothing against gun nuts. I am pro-gun-control, however, and i very much do have beef with idiots owning guns. It's not black and white. It's not either no guns or everyone has a gun. There are actual shades in between.
