The Gaming Den

It's the feeling of knowing you shouldn't click on "Click HERE to view this post", but doing so anyway out of morbid curiosity, masochism, or a desire for cringelaughs.

I know how you feel, man, and it hurts.

This.

Here we go again.

"That Dumpshock is actually the only real and honest battleground for supporters and critics alike. " (emphasis mine) My whole point was that if for the most part SR cheerleaders are patting the back of SR cheerleaders in the official forums, then for the most part SR critics are patting ...

I agree on that point, but for nitpicking's sake, I think those qualify as dangerous terrain, not traps.

But yeah, that's true.

Maybe traps need to be more obvious? It's always pretty clear in a movie when the room is a death-trap. Of course, this only works for the least straightforward types of traps, such as the lettered floor corridor in Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade, or the flamethrower-eyes room in the D&D f...

I disagreed with a girl, which means 3rd edition sucks. Moving right along, a trap's only use, in the end, is to scar the psyche of a player forever. It doesn't bring anything to the table but doubt and indecisiveness(?) to the table, bogging down every dungeon until the end of time to a fucking cra...

The thing is, stunned targets can be woken up by an ally. Dead ones can't. Personally, I mostly stuck with non-lethal weapons, if only because all of them are silenced.

And that's true for both examples.

Hippies, then Doom.

Wouldn't it make more sense to implement those changes to the territories during the game, instead of later? For example, an Agent Orange card that remove all supplies from a region and stuff.

So then like nothing we have ever imagined?

The creators are obviously fans of everything science-fiction. It shows.

If you want to try perhaps the most fun/surreal/retarded gaming experince ever made, try E.Y.E divine cybermancy. Featuring a plot that is WAY more convoluted than Deus Ex, as translated from french to english by a platoon of Apes and google translate, an RPG system with 12 starting upgradable cybe...

Indeed, I don't 'get' Dragon Age, couldn't finish it, so much about the game made me rage. I *think* the worst was all the fights where you were badly outnumbered, even as you had half a dozen other guys sitting back in your camp. Maybe, just maybe, that was the worst of it. Also, that Grey Warden ...

Dead men's pointy shoes?

From my experience, you can't go straight Will, Strength or Skill. Even my most dedicated spellcasters, back then ended up as gish. I never played a bowman, but here's what I suggest: Spam Slow Time, Multi Arrows (?) and Force Push when it gets too crowded. Lightning is nice because it stuns many fo...

Just popped in the first Fable game. I'm only starting out, but thus far it seems like more of a game than Fable 2 and 3. I can understand the fan's hatred of the newer games. Also, I was given the option to pay 68 gold to be called "Arseface". So I did. I haven't played the second one, b...

Ice Blast 3 had the benefit of freezing foes around a destroyed freezee (?). Combined with a charge, it was pretty sweet. Also, BEES to distract everyone else.

I did bring out the guns when I needed to lay a trap for a Big Sister, mind you

Waristocrat.

So, beat Bioshock 2. It wasn't nearly as good a story as a first one, but I enjoyed the gameplay more. It was sort of satisfying to have two pet security drones hovering around me on towards the end of the game. And for the last chapter, I put together every tonic which could increase drill damage ...

"Oh, my, Gawd! You're wearing that swordbelt with those shoes? On behalf of fabulous good taste, I will punish you!"

What the fuck is up with the sabertooth lynx shoulderpads!?

Seriously, WTF?

You've also got to compete against the fact that the VAH is really, really cool in the eyes of most people. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DRT4S9G27VE is what most people think of when they think of high level martial characters, for better or worse, and it is a concept that is really cool.

Male Sheppard sucks though.
