In Monster Hunter World you can catch creatures with a wrist mounted netgun and let them loose in your house. I have a pink rabbit weasel and a bunch of goofy birds in my room.

Also everyone should buy MHW.

Wait you come up in here hyping MHW and it's not even out for PC yet? I haven't had a god drat console since the Playstation. Yeah that's right, the one that didn't even have a number.

I mean poo poo I'd rather delete my steam account than use my loving thumbs to play video games. I don't even use them for the motherfuckin' SPACE BAR.

God drat I'm great.

“Throughout the decades there were manchildren who took first steps down new spaceroads armed with nothing but their own dreams. Their dreams were unified by Chris Roberts: that the movie and/or game was first, the engine new, the fidelity unborrowed, and the response they received — hatred. The great CIG: the dreamers, the artists, the mocap actors, the community managers; stood alone against the goons of their time. Every great new dream was opposed. Every great new jpeg was denounced. The first sand worm was considered foolish. The tank was considered impossible. The local physics grid was considered vicious. Refunding was considered sinful. But the men of unborrowed dreams went ahead. They dreamt, they handwaved and they were paid. But they paarped."

Went through my inbox and found a bunch of unredeemed Humble Bundle games that have just been sitting there because I already owned them when I bought the bundles.

Ziggurat
Kentucky Route Zero
The Stanley Parable
Grim Fandango Remastered

Pretty awesome games if you ask me. I'm giving them away for free, obviously, and it's been a few months so I hope they still work. I don't know if there's a time limit on that poo poo. Anyway, just say which one you want and I'll PM you the link/code.

I'd like The Stanley Parable if available. Please and thank you.

Monster Hunter world is cool, it's like a slog to get through all these cutscenes

Killing a monster takes insane amounts of time

Dark souls has better combat

All the weapons are kinda dumb tbh

It's good as hell

I like the idea that Star Citizen is being designed from the ground up for VR, despite the fact that the devs cannot actually go into VR to test it out. I really hope they do activate VR at some point just to see the clusterfuck.

"You know how someone just made up some poo poo that was contrary to the other poo poo we made up which also didn't make sense in the first place if you looked at anything else we made up? Well get ready for us to completely change the poo poo we just made up that you didn't like by making up some poo poo that you will like.

No, this isn't an indication that we have no idea what any of this would actually be. Why would you think that?

Your assertion that the state of the game is so tenuous we can just make wildly conflicting statements about core mechanics in a short period of time based on whatever the person speaking thinks would be the best idea at the time of the question is false. What motive would we have for telling our customers that have given us $170,000,000 what they want to hear."

Backers will eat this poo poo up because they need to believe it. I call it "Autist's Razor." It's the exact opposite of Occam's Razor and you need to make as many assumptions as possible to prove the outcome you've chosen to believe.

Someone post that Montreal is nice, friendly enough to non-french speakers, and has a great night life/music scene. Tech and game companies abound, and try all the food you can. Apologies to your waist line in advance.

Living in Montreal is my dream. Great foods, good music, stuff to do. It does get cold as gently caress, but so does where I live.

Sadly, my husband doesn't speak French.:sigh:

Def learn French if you want to sleep with super hot Montrealien/nes, but you can certainly get around the city without.

Not a surprise though. Imagine if the PU was playable. Even just 1% of CiG's customer base would bankrupt them with server costs.

~1GB per hour * 20,000 players. 400 servers.

Guys, Chris is actually a genius. His staff want to make a game but he knows better than that.
