Interesting how much is already flung to your head for saying that. As an outsider, though, the US is now considered phenomenally weak. Bowing to threats without a hint of realization means I can simply write something vaguely terrorist'ish here and the entire country will go on lockdown. Way to project that strong…

Ironically the act of terrorism has already had succes, so the terrorists win without lifting a finger. Good to know they don't need bombs anymore for people to piss their pants, even threats are enough now. Man, what an age to be a terrorist!

Come on, man.

"According to Kitase, the game will take the "classic road" (王道) of Final Fantasy with features like map exploration"
:D
"- although moving across the map will be automated -"

"MPAA will continue to refrain from commenting, when asked, about the issue of the use of VPNs and other technologies to gain online access to content consumers are otherwise restricted from accessing in their geography ."
Okay... They don't want me to pirate stuff, yet they also don't want me to watch stuff legally…

Not in Europe and other non-US territories though, and that's a problem. The US is a big market, but The Entire Rest Of The World eclipses it in terms of scope while not having adequate means of procuring those products. In the Netherlands where I live it's not superduperbad, but it IS horribly expensive: for…

Exactly, criticism in science is a valuable thing and is a source of progress. One of the classes I'm following now actively encourages us to find the flaws in the curriculum and ask questions that challenge the lecturers / tutors / coordinators. This is healthy: when I pointed out a flaw in the very foundation of the…

This. Science requires evidence to both postives AND negatives, up until that time it's all an area of grays and maybes without evidence to back up those claims.

Considering your posting history I'm not sure if we can get into this in a sensible manner (I apologize for that premature judgement), but naming popularity as the cause of something subjectively going down in quality of experience is not necessarily a hipster thing. Pokémon, by extension, wasn't always as popular as…

I agree with you. While Cell had a clear sense of honor and Buu didn't always just fight, Frieza was threatening because he's just such a dick 24/7. Sneak attacks, intimidation, outright torture to mess with both opponents and bystanders, you name it. He's an undisciplined but very effective warrior, hence his…

In general, the Ubers Pokemon hover around ~700 BST; anything higher has either a wasted ability slot (Multitype) or a restricted item slot (Orbs, Plates, Mega Stones). What separates Mega Rayquaza from the rest is the fact that it is the first unrestricted ~800 BST pokemon. As a result, it is able to easily overpower…

This game still screams 'too good to be true, it has to be a sham', and every time some new information or trailer comes out that feeling just comes back. It already felt like a sham before, just piling more cream on top of the sham-pie only makes it worse. Now it's way too fucking good to be true.

Then again, that's…

This. And it makes me so fucking pissed. The Perfect World Of Darkness Game Of All Time And Any Time was flat-out denied by boardroom assholes. Just denied, hasta la vista.

It's like everything's more humanoid now, kind of makes the races less interesting and diverse. Not a good thing if you ask me.

And a few thousand more yelling "SHUT UP!", "stop replying then!", or variations of the sort, further complicating it. Like a teacher saying 'ssh' and one kid saying 'that's a word!'.

This. Often times I turn down resolution, textures etc. in order to dial up lighting, shadows and SFX.

Fair point, YOU DID GOOD JOB.

Problem is, it's already been tried multiple times over, and it didn't work on multiple levels. Sometimes euthanasia is the most humane.

Yup, kids don't deserve praise just because they're kids. What makes them so special? Oh jolly, you figured out the answer to 2+2, in the mean time daddy is busy with plowing through SPSS-data from an experiment with 300 participants he just ran, bye!

Just kidding, of course. Key part of the sentence: 'and unnecessary…

I don't often post to congratulate someone on the quality of a joke, considering it's only ego-stroking and unnecessary posting, but this was purdy gurd, brother.

What bothers me the most about the trailer is that it's obvious Blizzard still has their storytelling chops in place. Why not focus that on The Singleplayer Game To End All Singleplayer Games? I mean, Overwatch looks fly and all, and the story helps ground the setting, but apply it where it's better applicab- oh yeah,…
