a multi-headed dragon, set in some sort of factory

I’ve been on a few sides of this (and agree completely). I tried to play Tomb Raider on mouse/keyboard, and gave up after the quick-time events felt like random keys. (I assume they weren’t, they were just mapped to the random buttons I had mapped to the face button actions, but it felt random because I don’t think of…

My dad was one of those Warshington, warshing machine, warshcloth Midwesterners (specifically, he was from Indiana). Even living in California, I definitely picked it up as a kid. About 7th grade, I specifically set out to rid myself of those extra ‘r’s. Every once in a while it comes out, and I get a look from my…

When I was much younger (late 90s), my ‘89 Corolla was hit in the front passenger tire and broke a steering strut. After getting towed home, my brother, who knew more about cars that I did, suggested to take it to a guy he knows. (Turns out it was an auto body shop, so they weren’t going to fix this problem, but I…

The one my in-laws love is Tenzi (TL;DR: roll 10D6 until they all come up a certain combination before anyone else. Maybe you decide which number, maybe you decide to go 50/50, etc.). My wife doesn’t understand why I don’t like it, but it’s just like your take on LCR: no agency.

I particularly like this rant and share it whenever it is even mildly related.

Theoretically, of course!

And one of the worst ways is to be looking at this article when they come up to ask you a question...

I feel like this also applies to things that aren’t all-you-can-eat buffets...

Try Medium. Players each play a card with a random word with the person next to them, then proceed to find a word that relates the two. “Tiger” and “black” may elicit the word “stripe,” for example. If you get it wrong, use the new words and try again. You get three tries. You get more points the less tries it takes.…

Listen to Kellen, people. This is why people are freaking out. Not because Pixar wants to make this movie. It’s because Pixar and Captain America said it’s an origin story for the man behind the toy. If they didn’t try to frame it that way, then people would only be arguing on whether they liked the idea or not.

Why not both!?

Weird Science over Dead Man’s Party? Huh? :-)

Can you be both? Because I know a guy... You might have heard of him... He would both have elaborate webs of lies for personal gain, but also lie about the most inconsequential things.

I don’t mean to absolve anyone here. I’m just saying it’s probably more complicated than “EA BS.” No one wanted Luke to not be able to put in his last name. In the end, you are responsible for the product you put out, and some producer over there (who could be the newbie that got stuck with the profanity filter) will…

It’s not necessarily EA’s fault. There are many third-party solutions for sanitizing text, many of which claim that they have done the hard work of trying to track down all the bad words in all the languages so you don’t have to! That sounds attractive to use. Who wants to go around and collect a bunch of colorful…

Last gripe suggestion. :-) I think it needs some kind of feedback when you take damage. Either your life total flashes, or the screen flashes. Nothing fancy. Otherwise, what an accomplishment!

I see it! I’m going to try it now!

No no. These non-inverted kids these days. Some of them are going to want to grow up to be pilots. And when they take off for the first time, they’re going to push up on the stick and crash right into the ground!

Non-inverted controls? Aaaaaaahhh! Cannot play it. And I kinda wanted to try it out.
