OK, Valves Skyrim mod amuses me on so many levels.
Wednesday, 08-Feb-12 11:24:08 UTC from TTYtter-
@ceruleanspark I think they got bored again
-
@mrdragon well, not making Half Life 3 must be hard work
-
@ceruleanspark Eeyup, then again that mod was made by the portal 2 team, and they don't work on hl3
-
@mrdragon Like the rest of Valve then?
-
@ceruleanspark Eeyup
-
@ceruleanspark They should do EP3, not HL3.
-
@nerthos they should do SOMETHING
-
@ceruleanspark Yes. Exactly. The last one was released in... 2008? Also, the valve mod you were talking about, is it uloaded to tesnexus or one of it's subpages, or only by steam?
-
@nerthos on the steam kit
-
@mrdragon Ow. Time to pirate it. Condemn Steam.
-
@nerthos I haven't pirated a game in over 3 years, steam is easier got me then the service pirates offer
-
@mrdragon to not got*
-
@mrdragon Yeah, but I already had many problems trying to have a Steam-free Skyrim, mostly with the 1.27 patch, that after the Megaupload incident, had many problems to get pirated. It's way better to download the ESPs, models, etc. in a .rar and install it manually, as it was in Morrowind and Oblivion.
-
@nerthos this is why I buy games, even if I don't have the money I either wait or save up. Why wait on a torrent I need seeds all the time for and dl at like 400 kb/s, when I can dl for 2 to 4 mb/s on steam, as well as auto updates for my games as peace of mind. And a one click install and uninstall system for mods now. Steam beats the service pirates can offer me hands down, ill happily torrent EA games though. That's more worth it.
-
@mrdragon My prblem with Steam is that they force you to pay through bank or card, and the games are entangled with it, so you need to run the program to play the games. In older machines, that can be a serious performance problem. And auto updates? I like to choose what to install, after a week or so, when I can know if they actually are worth it. Also, paying for something without a physical copy?
-
@nerthos actually, many older games do not force steam play. And I prefer a digital copy over physical. I've lost many physical games or broke them, I can't break a digital copy. And you can choose to update or not by taking off the auto update feature. As for those payments, I happily pay through paypal and have for a long time.
-
@mrdragon I may start using it if they give me the option to pay with cash, I always preffer to go with some coin in my hand to the store. And I always make backups of the physical copies xD
-
@nerthos I've never seen the problem with using you normal bank card, credit cards I'd be cautions about. But I don't have one and don't want one either, more trouble then they are worth.
-
@mrdragon Exactly. Bank. I try to avoid letting other people touch my money if I can.
-
@mrdragon you can say that again. I have a relative with near 100,000 dollars worth of credit card debt.
-
@nerthos they don't touch your money unless you tell them they can do so. It's the same really as paying by hand, you have to actually give them the money from your hand to theirs and the same is only. You have to say yes I agree to you taking my money or I can take you to court. Ones verbal the other is physical, both do the exact same thing.
-
@sadsack that's just.. they must have seen it rising.. how can you not see something that big.
-
@mrdragon they just didn't care.
-
@sadsack I may sound mean, but there can be no sympathy for that.
-
@mrdragon After 2001 and the "corralito", I won't let banks touch my money xD I don't trust this country's banking system, and using foreign ones is expensive. Also, I love my pirating. PC games are far too expensive after someone tought it would be a good idea to charge for them the same as console ones, without paying the platform rights. So, now everybody does it, and I choose to not give them anything.
-
@nerthos I keep forgetting which country you are from, nevermind what I said, you are far better off on the piracy side.
-
@mrdragon Lol'd. Fun fact, I pirate some games just to fight with the developers. Like distributing the non-steam patches.
-
@nerthos well, as gabe stated. They are not worried about piracy, so your fine :P
-
@mrdragon After the Megaupload thing, since they shut it down for "causing us$500million loses" I have taken as a personal crusade to make copyright holders lose us$3000million.
-
@mrdragon you're* Sorry I had to.
-
@nerthos you mean $3 billion?
-
@mrdragon But why
-
@mrdragon There's a problem with the international term "billion" for english speakers, it means 1 000 000, but for spanish speakers it means 1 000 000 000. So we use "millardo" instead of "billón" for it xD so I just write 3kmillion to avoid problems
-
@nerthos Noo. In English a billion is 1,000,000,000 and a million is 1,000,000
-
@nerthos Sorry, add three zero to it
-
@nerthos try again from the top so I am not confused
-
@mrdragon English billion= 1000 000000 Spanish billion= 1000000 000000
-
@nerthos why can no one just be the same in the currency and measurement systems...
-
@mrdragon IDK, democracy? With a global overlord those problems would be long gone.
-
@nerthos I'm gona live on the moon, you coming? Be better there
-
@mrdragon If they have good internet over there, no problem. But, women? are any there?
-
@nerthos bring some.
-
@mrdragon I'll get my black van and my kidnap bag.
-
@nerthos be gentle!
-
@mrdragon Ok, a silk kidnap bag and a cushioned bag. You're right, it's better if the merchandise isn't damaged.
-
@nerthos experiment if they do not complain when you do it we are in for fun.
-
@mrdragon Point taken, will do.
-
@nerthos this plan will work
-
@mrdragon ♫"I could save my lonely soul for you but this feeling in my heart can't follow through. You can give you're broken heart to me cause you I'll stay here with you ~ That's why they call me Loyalty."♫
-
@lightningcrash such a charmer :3
-
@mrdragon Yeah, if we manage to send a van full of women to the moon without wasting millions on that.
-
@mrdragon Did you ever get to listen to the Waltz for Trixie?
-
@nerthos steal a shuttle, I ain't paying murdock
-
@lightningcrash nope I got in and slept
-
@mrdragon Oh well. That's okay. I'd give you more YT music, but you're on yer phone. Did you at least sleep somewhat well?
-
@lightningcrash somewhat, restless though
-
@mrdragon Ok, I need a crowbar, shears, and a couple of wires.
-
@nerthos that's cheap to get
-
@mrdragon As in the words of what some great pony said. "Sleep with me next time. I'll make sure you rest well."
-
@mrdragon Yup. I steal the shuttle, you hide the bodies.
-
@nerthos I'm waiting for us to get deported over this talk
-
@lightningcrash ill hopefully have a pony to sleep with soon.. just not soon enough.
-
@mrdragon Can I launch it?
-
@derps sure
-
@mrdragon yes.
-
@mrdragon Yeah, well, I'm pretty sure that some foreigners trying to get me here, will only end in them being robbed three times.
-
@mrdragon Hopefully. But until then, you've got me. http://tinyurl.com/3q7g4ep

@nerthos eh, the worlds screwed up, might be amusing
-
