I sorta feel the same way with cheese. I fucking hate cheesiness in video games. It's not cute, it's not charming and most important of all it's not funny. I was very disappointed with Star Wars Battlefront 2. I heard all sorts of good things about it but when I started playing it was extremely generic and boring. I felt like I was playing a bad CoD clone with Star Wars plastered over it. I honestly don't know why people liked Star Wars Battlefront 2 as much as they did.

Laser machine guns. If a video game reviewer feels that he couldn't add anything more to his review by playing through the whole thing does he have the right to stop playing and declare that as his final review? Why or why not?

Well she's got to compensate for being stupid somehow. If reality has taught me anything it is that having a brain is entirely optional.

To make it seem like Witcher 3, a much better game.

God I hate the Matrix films, they're the very definition of pretentious and edgy films.

You remember the time when you thought you were good at video games? Quake 1 on Nightmare difficulty will fix that for you. Jesus Christ this game is brutal. For comparison I played Brutal Doom on Black Metal difficulty and that's a cakewalk compared to this.

That's it, I officially hate vocal minority Vegans and Atheists. You can be a Vegan or an Atheist without being an obnoxious fucktard about it, It's not hard. I also find it pretty ironic that vocal minority Atheists say they don't believe in god yet they sure do talk a lot about how much he doesn't exist. It's like they don't have any confidence in what they're saying and so they keep going on and on about their beliefs. It never fucking ends.

Hey Ross here are my questions. 1. When it comes to talking about video games which aspects do you think matters more, the person's voice or their tone? Like for instance would you rather listen to someone who has an articulate and robust voice like Yahtzee Croshaw or someone who is enthusiastic about what their talking about like you? I've been really wanting to do something similar to what you're doing with your Ross's Game Dungeon/ Ross's rants series in regards to covering old and obscure video games. Except my voice sounds very average, I've never done it before and I have no vocal training whatsoever. I basically just want to bring attention to the games/topics I'm covering and not bore my audience to death. 2. What's your thoughts on publishers killing video game genres? I've been noticing this disturbing trend amongst Blizzard's games such as WoW, Starcraft II and possibly Overwatch where they're are so perfectly made and heavily marketed that they effectively kill any possibilities for new games in their respective genres. If EA is killing games then Blizzard is taking that one step further and preventing thousands of games from even being born. 3. Are you going to continue hosting PS2 play sessions despite PS2 being on shaky ground now with PS1's shutdown or will you move on to something else?

Is it just me or does Boris Johnson looks like he could be Donald Trump's cousin? The resemblance is uncanny.

That's kinda bizarre, how do you classify something like that as hate speech? Now I do agree with the sentiment that religion in the US should be toned down and become more private. IMO the way the US treats religion as something to shout about and to attach merchandise to is extremely disrespectful to the religion itself. While I think stuff like religious t-shirts and religious stickers are disgustingly garish they aren't hate speech. I don't even know how one might reach that conclusion. OT: The real world doesn't really affect me much. While it is undoubtedly fucked once I realized that I had no power in any way, shape or form to unfuck it I stopped caring. As far as I'm concerned the world could burn and I still wouldn't care. That would imply that I believed that life is valuable and I don't. Life is nothing miraculous. The dust mites that live on top of my PC have as much "purpose" in life as I do and they could be considered alive. Yet I still murder trillions of them on a monthly basis. So what does that say about life in of itself? Nothing, because life has no point. As stupid as this may sound we don't choose life chooses us. We are a byproduct of existence itself, nothing more. I find it baffling when overly-optimistic, shortsighted, grandiose people believe they can unfuck the world or even possibly change it for the better. They can't handle what fate has placed before them and so they scatter about like ants, panicked about what they can do. Except they can't do anything. They would rather waste even more time putting up a fight against something unwinnable then simply come to terms with their reality and move on. We truly are Sisyphus incarnate. So in order to answer the question I would say it is quite manageable if we ignore it that is.

I don't, not really worth the massive brain hemorrhage. Who is the most evil video game publisher?

Has anyone finished any games recently? I just finished Planescape Torment and can summarize my experience in three words, barmy as fuck. I'm even more bewildered having finished PST than I was halfway through it. PS:T IMO is the best written game ever made and it's batshit insanity all the way through. I'm almost certain PS:T has broken my brain in one or another and I consider that to be a good thing. I hate it when I can see a video game story coming from a mile away and that never happened with PS:T.

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little from hearing that game's name. Seriously, why is it so hard for Firefly to understand the concepts behind their own fucking games? Ever since Stronghold 2 they've been completely out of touch with what made the Stronghold series good. Stronghold 1 and crusader were RTSes where the resource management felt important; It had layers upon layers of how everything worked together and no other RTS series had ever done that. In RTSes like Starcraft 2 resource management takes a backseat, is a chore and overall it's fucking boring.

That would make for a great band name. Not really sure what genre though.

I'll be dual booting Manjaro Linux pretty soon with my Windows 7 HDD so I'm pretty good. Unity 3d currently has a beta version out for Linux so I don't really have any incentive to keep using Windows 7 anymore outside of just gaming which I'm hoping will be changing very soon. Who's got two thumbs and is running <250mbs of RAM on startup even though he has 16gbs? This guy.

Hey, as a pretentious asshole I resent that notion.

I think it's pretty safe to say I already am. I'm under the impression that finding someone is completely unrealistic and even if I did they're probably looking to cheat me out of money or something. I don't have any good faith in this if I'm being perfectly honest. What I don't appreciate is that despite me knowing all of this and being skeptical as all hell my brain's primal instincts have decided that they're going to make these decisions for me and that going through all this asinine BS would be a worthwhile thing to do for whatever reason. Then they make me feel bad when I choose not to listen to them. Cognitive dissonance is fun. God I miss having IRL friends, they all moved away so I'm all by myself in the middle of nowhere. I've been feeling so alienated and frustrated since then because the people I could talk to aren't anywhere near on the same level as me. Maybe that's why I've been feeling so sensitive to this stuff lately. I think I'm going to try and take a breather for a bit. I'm practically fucking hysterical at this point.

Yeah exactly, how many years would it take for me to find that one? Those years spent are what scare me. Oh look I've just spent 7 years trying to look for the girl of my dreams instead doing something more productive/interesting like programming. How much of that time spent adds up to something? What if my work is my GF in a way? I'm overly attached to it, constantly giving it a ton of attention and I don't want to leave it for something else.

So are you like Schrodinger's cat? Simultaneously dead and drawing?

Lionheart:Legacy of the Crusader IMHO Lionheart didn't deserve as much flak as it got upon it's release. I mean yes the RPG aspect gets tossed to the wind mid-late game but it's still a really accessible game in a genre that's as dense as concrete. The streamlining of the usual RPG BS was well done and quite refreshing. The historic fantasy setting is great. 13th century Spain with actual magic, demons and spirits? Sounds awesome. The amount of crazy magic shit that you get to see makes the Spanish Inquisition's paranoia entirely justified. In this setting there are demons and spirits everywhere and the Spanish Inquisition is trying to cleanup the mess caused by the Disjunction. Seriously the Spanish Inquisition and the Knights Templar are the only sane/good factions in this insane world. Also how many games let you meet Leonardo Da Vinci, Galileo, Shakespeare, Machiavelli in the same area?

That's the other thing, does "she" even exist? I can't imagining myself being drawn to another person in the way you're describing. Mostly because I hate people in general. My heart doesn't seem open at all to be honest.

Damn it that's not what I meant.
