The opening sequence of this game needs to be the Kobyashi Maru

Hopefully less difficult to set up than Artemis... though it will have a much higher price of entry.

Good explanation but it is worth pointing out that the this will probably be an AMD part. And historically FLOPS calculations for the Red Team haven’t translated as well to gaming perf for some reason. This obviously could all change. One thing I would look to for comparison is when real Polaris Benchmarks come out at…

I vote for healers on the other team but that is the one exception to rule 3 and only if our healer didn’t make the list and no one on our team has a stand out stat being posted.

always tip your healer, folks!

He’s hard to play but can be very rewarding when used well. I think the Orb of Discord is useful both for it’s damage buff and as a denial tool and the loss of line of site for 3 seconds is a good amount for that, any more would be too OP I think. I love seeing a road hog start an attack with his team and then turn…

I just want them to release more animated shorts. 2 or three for each character. And an Omnic Crisis Saturday morning cartoon would be great.

I feel like 76 is so universally usable he should be higher on the list... though not much higher. Maybe just above Torbjorn or even Hanzo. That said I agree he is the least interesting character both to play and in lore. I would also drop Symetra down a few, she is SO powerful on defense, but only for the first…

I think you (and incidentally a lot of people who use Trigger Warnings) do not understand what a Trigger actually is. We have a fundamentally broken relationship with Trauma, its long lasting results and how to deal with it in our culture. Trigger Warnings are supposed to give those who have actual physical reactions…

After admittedly only playing about 10 hours of it this weekend, I think a lot of this is overcome by fantastic character animation. As others have pointed out these characters have different enough silhouettes to allow their movement animations to distinguish them. Lucio moves only like Lucio, Hanzo like Hanzo and so…

You were able to re-read the books multiple times. I think if spoilers were really an issue for you that would not have been something you cherished. I was fortunate and wasn’t exposed to the books until after Crows was released so I only had a little bit of waiting to do, but I can safely say what drives me in GRRM’s…

Agreed Edison DLC is a must. Also Ada Lovelace, Grace Hooper, Watson & Crick, Rosalind Frankin, Copernicus, and Galileo... oh the list goes on. Please let this be a thing. I would love a linux version too so I could play it on my steam machine. You could build quite the roster with a lot of unique move sets.

Someone needs to make all these stories into a Ken Burns style documentary. Replete with old timey music and panning over black and white photos.

I disagree, the Vive is a display and input device, the Hololens is a full computer... a computer they are marketing to Engineers and Designers. I think if the final version is as cheap as the Dev Kit ($3k) we will be lucky.

I don’t know that the intended use case is to have a full game developed in VR. My guess is the workflow would be build most of the level traditionally then hop into VR and have the full set of tools available to you to tweak as needed.

safest bet is probably going to be BYOR if you are really concerned. Find their router and swap it for yours during the duration of your stay. Unless they have a hidden router in their basement for their secret network. Hmmmm.... maybe if you bring 1000 rolls tin foil and build massive faridays cage around the room…

I really hope Leia is a strong force user and they are just saving it for a reveal in a later movie. It would be relatively unexpected, while also making total sense. They get cornered by storm troopers and her guards are surrendering when she just force pushes dozens of them away or something in a big spectacle.

I assume you are talking about some dialogue that establishes (at least vaguely) the parentage of a new character in the first 5 minutes? I agree on that point, but that was going to be established in this film regardless so how they chose to play it was up to them, I applaud them for just getting it out of the way…

They are based on tropes and the classic heroes journey, not a blind re-hash of Episode IV. There was so much good in this movie, but JJ and Company spent too much time trying to hit all the major plot beats of the first film that they neglected the very good, very interesting story and characters they were…

I own the special editions Twice (DVD and Digital) already AND I would still shell out cash for the original cut. Digitally if at all possible. It seems so simple. I mean obviously they can only milk me for so much at a time, so my guess/hope is once this new trilogy dies down they will come a calling with the…
