I have a recurring headache... It's at the base of my skull, where it meets the spine, but it's inside the skull. It doesn't want to go away, and it's causing any number of other ill feelings. (like nausea, I can feel it originating in the headache)

What game universe do you want to live in?
BTGBullseye replied to Reverend_UshankaCat_'s topic in Gaming in general
You mind providing proof of that please? Last I saw, they were referencing it numerous times throughout the Fallout 4 campaign... -
Star Trek Online... They're completely revamping the skill system, and the new system looks awesome. It retains all complexity, but makes it a lot easier to understand, and more about specialization than previously. (an engineering focused tactical officer, and a tactical/science focused engineer is what I'm testing out on the Tribble server)

If you managed to get past security, didn't get caught, and it was from a Duty Free store, you're all good. Otherwise, you're technically a smuggler. Welcome to the dark side, care to take up piracy while you're here? (all you have to do is send someone a file that you don't explicitly own to join)

Do big name games get good ratings JUST because of big name?
BTGBullseye replied to Meelis13's topic in Gaming in general
I stopped when the walkthrough writers started posting to hack sites instead... (back in the late 90's) -

Or what the devs from back in the isometric days put in the games, because "Bethesda is killing the Fallout franchise!!!11!ONE!". -
Well, it's not just for video games, but most torrent sites have massive and 'ancient' libraries of stuff... Even if something isn't available anymore, you can usually find someone who downloaded it at some point that is willing to reupload it for you to get. Essentially making it a decentralized library of digital stuff. (and that's how people who frequent those sites tend to treat it)

How could I find a list of killed games because of EA?
BTGBullseye replied to Trevor Musial's topic in Gaming in general
Yeah, that list only deals with the online services that were shut down, not games killed by EA. (EA tried to kill Battlefield 2142, but someone made a private server for it, and it's still going) -

I know, I was merely stating the obvious. -
There's always a big problem with these kind of issues when talking about international confections... That is that the USA and certain other countries are mandated by law to use a different recipe. That's right, a Cadbury bar in the USA is not the same as one from the UK. (it'll even land you in jail for smuggling if you try to bring one into the USA from elsewhere) http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-31924912

I've tried Ububntu, (disgusting default UI, not a simple design to move to from 20+ years of Microsoft OSes) and Fedora... Was planning on trying Mint, but the power supply for my Linux box burned out, and I haven't the money to replace it yet. The biggest problem I have with existing distros is their inexplicable desire to keep every advanced setting locked into the command line only, and none of the devs will ever even consider making a GUI for it. (by the way they respond, it's like asking if you can eat their firstborn child)

I'll tell you this... At the time it was originally released, it was a great marvel of a game, but it hasn't aged as well as other games. I recommend trying to play through the others in the series before completely giving up on it.

If it was from the early 00's, then it wouldn't be any DOS game. (which Isle of the Dead is) -

Ross's Girlfriend has Twitter - a nonofficial introduction
BTGBullseye replied to HLPrincess's topic in Free-For-All
Sorry, but I still don't do social media. -
I took your tip and applied it to a new mix. Sounds much nicer, it's not overpowering the other sounds anymore.

You need one of the really good nail files... (not the cardboard popsicle stick ones, a metal one) They can make it so it doesn't catch on anything.

I have 72 D6 dice, and had one character build for Shadowrun 4e that could actually use all of them when rolling for trickshot sniping with a suppressed light pistol from a half mile away. (naturally the character was way OP, even though it only had the equivalent of 580 Karma points used)

And it keeps coming back to this... How many is 'enough'? What is the definition of 'good' in this context? Not everyone lakes all games in the same genre, even if done well. (many I know love Starcraft, but hate Command & Conquer, and vice versa) Enough is relative, and what is enough for you, might not be for others. What is 'good' to you, might be crap to others. What kind of games do you enjoy? I enjoy a large selection of games, but ones that aren't done well (this is a purely subjective assessment) result in my total lack of enjoyment of the game. The problem is the 99% of the F2P games are usually poor quality, and that other 1% is usually made up of stuff that requires a lot of microtransactions to do anything worthwhile.
