Went to see La La Land in an outdoor cinema. Here's my hot take: Inside Llewyn Davis is a more honest and frank examination of Ryan Gosling's character type. Of course it was still wonderful and fun, I would recommend watching La La Land

That English is a living language is precisely why prescriptivism is important. If it were a dead language, it would be too late to fix anything!

Oh wow, the Telltale GoT game is another one of the monthly PSN games so I'll get to check out how bad it is. Also Watch_Dogs 2 loving owns, this might be the best GTA-like game in years.

GoT is the worst of theirs I've played. quote:Also Watch_Dogs 2 loving owns, this might be the best GTA-like game in years. I'd say it's better than GTAV in both single and multi player.

Twin Snakes was dope. Took me a little over 8 hours. I discovered while fist fighting Liquid that rolling is in the game... I had a lot of trouble with the GameCube controller. I have quite large hands, and not very much experience with the controller. I felt like I had to contort my hand quite a bit to hold the Z button. So next I'll go back and finish Peace Walker, which is almost done, and then I'll be on to MGS2, which was the first MGS I ever played. Edit: okay, apparently it took me 11 hours and 43 continues. 42 alerts. So I basically died every time there was an alert, but actually more, since I died several times to a few bosses. 74 people killed, and 73 rations used. I was not very good at this game. It's pretty solid, though. I think the first person view was great outside of some of the boss battles where it was totally broken. Snak fucked around with this message at 09:44 on Jul 7, 2017 |

This weekend I will only be playing Horizon Zero Dawn. I cannot stop gushing about and thinking about this game! I am utterly captivated and hope that I will start to soon get answers to all my questions. I'm trying to think what was the last narrative driven game that I just had to keep playing every time I wanted to game and I cannot think of it. It was possibly Portal 2. I've also been taking so many in game photographs. I think that is one of the best new systems added to games recently.

Hello everybody, it's 5 AM where I live and I can't stop playing Deadly Rooms Of Death. I finished Gunthro and the Epic Blunder including all of the secret stuff and am now on to King Dugan's Dungeon 2.0. I keep saying "ok after this room I'm gonna quit" and then I enter the next room and am all "eh ok just one more" Also, I ordered a hardcover copy of Master and Commander the other day and it is coming sometime today so yay, a book  I'm excited to read it.Other than that, not much is happening. I'm thinking about trying to look into programming because I'm thinking of trying to make KCB a small video game as a gift but the problem is that I don't exactly know what I'm doing, even with tutorials, so I'll probably just end up writing up a design doc, maybe opening up and messing with game maker for a bit, and then not actually accomplish anything lol  Enough about me tho. How is everybody doing today?

AHA That's why it says you're still in DROD even though you told me you finished the game, I was beginning to wonder.  On my end my depression is preventing me from making a bagel so instead I'm watching dumb anime. I'll probably play more Geneforge 3 in a bit - since POOL IS CLOSED is doing an LP of 2 I decided to skip ahead, and I've now got a pet fire-breathing raptor named Duo.

You have my condolences regarding the depression. It's lovely and I hope you've got coping mechanisms and medication in place to help you with through it. I still haven't played past the first geneforge game, and I've been meaning to go back to geneforge 1 anyway since I didn't explore everywhere and there were a few places I couldn't go to that I'm curious about.

I do - I've got a therapist and medication and so on in place for the depression so it's not soul-crushing - just annoying. I'm gonna make a bagel sooner or later but the depression won't let me do it now, so. Here's the fantastic LP of Geneforge 1 that just finished! I'm really happy with how the thread voted, as we got the best ending. (imo) The games themselves are a weird combo of fun to read and interesting to play but if you do too much at once they turn into a slog, what with the old-school design, so spreading them out is working better for me.

StrixNebulosa posted:.... AHA That's why it says you're still in DROD even though you told me you finished the game, I was beginning to wonder. Minecraft's been a great de-stresser nowadays. I found an NPC village near my home base in minecraft so I erected a monster-proof barrier around it, like city walls, and replaced the walkways with glowstone and redstone blocks so they have permanently lit streets, and replaced the house cobblestone with obsidian in case a Creeper gets in. I've decided to stick with a single save file instead of moving on to a new world save when I get bored of the one, and it's led to interconnected networks of roads to different bases with supplies. Makes things interesting. oh and thanks to R. Guyovich I've had this song stuck in my head for the past two days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b0wfu3tOrtQ the backstory is hilariously darker than I thought it would be when I went to look it up. quote:Fastball front man Tony Scalzo came up with the idea for the song after reading journalistic articles which described the disappearance of an elderly married couple, Lela and Raymond Howard from Salado, Texas, who left home in June 1997 to attend the Pioneer Day festival at nearby Temple, Texas, despite Lela's Alzheimers and Raymond recently recovering from brain surgery. They were discovered two weeks later, dead, at the bottom of a ravine near Hot Springs, Arkansas, hundreds of miles off their intended route.[3][4]

I bought minecraft back at the end 2009. I have a save from 2009 that is the one I play on. It's called World4 (because it was the fourth world I started) and it has lasted across moving between continents, PCs and operating systems. I spend the entirety of my time linking the underground tunnels I find to my pre-existing network of underground tunnels. I make things look pretty and the underground areas look nice. I make every floor glass with lava running underneath so that I don't have to put candles everywhere. It's kind of mad really, but heck, that's why I don't play on anything other than PC, because World4 doesn't exist anywhere else and I don't really like the idea of starting again. It's a great relaxation time

I've been making a survival mode level in Serious Sam's Bogus Detour as an exercise in learning how to implement scripting logic in my own gamemaking endeavors. It's a pretty robust editor! I usually leave the connection arrows off so I can actually see what I'm doing but it's been fun to sometimes turn them back on and watch the absolute chaos.

Horizon Zero Dawn is so good that I've forbid myself from playing any of the games I bought for the Steam Sale until I beat it without skipping any activities or side quests (I may miss some side quests accidentally though since I'm not using a walkthrough or anything). It will likely be my game of the year. The game is absolutely gorgeous, the story and characters are interesting, and the gameplay loop is really fun and varied. This game and Bloodborne are reasons enough to own a PS4.

I don't want us to go to war / destroy the planet / kill millions of people but the idiots in charge apparently want to, so. You should grab Minecraft, yeah. The launcher is perfectly fine, and the Microsoft version of the game(which sadly is impossible to mod, from what I hear) runs super amazingly smoothly since they've improved it over the Java version. The Java version has access to all the mods, of which there are countless amazing ones, and these days can be very easy to install. Life in the Woods for example has its own launcher that installs everything and directs you towards things you need to download, helps set up shaders, etc, it's great. the village, villagers will die if left unprotected from zombies and such    my home base, fruit tree grove, and farms, all built on the jungle treetops. It of course started raining right as I went to take a screenshot from below. I challenged myself to collect all the redstone needed to make the blocks to build a road to the village. Built/collected everything else, as well.

If reading the Trump Thread, here's a list of trolls, gimmicks, nothing-mattersers and bickerers to ignore to make the thread even remotely readable.

Note to self: reserve fun budget for Minecraft sooner rather than later. (also thanks for the political resources - they're useful even if I don't have the stomach to actually go look at 'em) e: Also because I know you guys are absolutely dying to know, I watched three eps of goofy anime, made two bagels, and feel a lot better!

It looks so colorful and vibrant - ! example:  Some more shots from around the game I took, Life in the Woods adds like 1200 new plants and foodstuffs too. Makes me hungry sometimes.  I glitched into a ceiling block and it made every non-air block invisible, and every air block visible, making cave systems look like big worms occasionally lit by torches or lava.  a jungle valley surrounded by volcanoes  as I was approaching the volcanic island with the jungle valley, I got this great night shot  Sakurazuka posted:How did The Surge turn out?

Sakurazuka posted:How did The Surge turn out? I heard rumblings that it wasn't as bad as Lords of the Fallen. It's fantastic. It's very much a worthy addition to the It's Like Dark Souls But genre, pretty much all the complaints of Lords of the Fallen (enemies have far too much health, combat has little fluidity and rewards turtling and repetition, restrictive progression, uncreative weapons) have been totally fixed.
