So how 'bout them brightly coloured cartoon ponies huh, guys and girls?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:26:16 UTC from web-
@flaxx oh yeah, those things are pretty cool, i like the yellow one, she's nice
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:26:51 UTC from web-
@trister With the pink hair? Yeah, she's my favourite. That smart one with the purple hair and stuff is great as well.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:27:36 UTC from web-
@flaxx oh, the purple one is adorable at times. I like her too. and then there's that pink one, she always makes me laugh. and that white one. I really like her mane
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:29:28 UTC from web-
@trister Yes, her mane is best. One of the best, anyway. Although I think I'd rather brush the yellow one's mane.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:31:35 UTC from web-
@flaxx hm, I do have to agree with you on that. But the one with the rainbow mane would be nice to brush too, it's very interesting. I don't know if she would stay still long enough though
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:32:57 UTC from web-
@trister And that's when you bring out the ropes!
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:34:10 UTC from web -
@trister No, I'm kidding. But yeah, the rainbow mane is cool. I wonder what would happen if you ruffled it so it wasn't in perfect lines any more.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:34:43 UTC from web-
@flaxx It would become white.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:35:10 UTC from web-
@nerthos That wouldn't be very cool, would it?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:37:51 UTC from web-
@flaxx Nope. That's why she brushes and cares for her hair way more than any other pony while they're not watching.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:39:40 UTC from web-
@nerthos Someone need to canonise that right now.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:40:33 UTC from web-
@flaxx I'll grab my drawing stuff xD

@flaxx Rainbow Dash With bed-head. Someone needs to draw that, NOW.

@starlightbolt Haha not as messy and chaotic as I was imagining, still good none the less!

@minti I'm sure it has already been drawn. I'd do it if I wasn't all not-wanting-to-do-it-right-now and stuff.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:38:15 UTC from web-
@flaxx I'd do it too if I knew how to draw at all. #genericexcuse
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:38:52 UTC from web-
@minti You can't draw?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:39:50 UTC from web-
@axelgunn Nope.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:41:28 UTC from web-
@minti Me either. Doesn't it suck?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:42:16 UTC from web-

@flaxx it would be very interesting to see. I think that would take too much effort though. I'll stick with the yellow one and her bunny rabbit
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:36:16 UTC from web-
@trister You can have the bunny. I'm keeping the pony.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:39:06 UTC from web-
@flaxx but the pony is the best... can't we share? I'm sure she would tell us to share.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:40:47 UTC from web-
@trister No, you're thinking about the pink one. You're right, though. One week each?

@flaxx I was barely able to watch any this week xD
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:27:07 UTC from web-
@nerthos Did you watch today's episode?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:27:58 UTC from web-
@flaxx Not yet, I wasn't as hyped by a Fluttershy episode as I'm by other characters', so I played some Total Overdose and Plants vs Zombis. I'll watch it later today, or tomorrow.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:30:20 UTC from web-
@nerthos Ah. Plants vs Zombies is a valid excuse for not watching ponies! In fact, anything is a good excuse, because friendship and magic and stuff.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:33:07 UTC from web-
@flaxx Plants vs Zombis is like drugs, but better.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:35:43 UTC from web-
@nerthos With more zombies! And more, or less, plants. Depends on which drug we're comparing to.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:38:43 UTC from web-
@flaxx Exactly xD though, the gardener could grow good weed on his zen garden.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:40:24 UTC from web-
@nerthos True. Though I wonder if that would really help him much.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:41:03 UTC from web-
@flaxx Yes. The neighbor wouldn't be able to manage numbers and he would be able to grab free stuff.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:42:08 UTC from web-
@nerthos They could be effective against the zombies as well. How would high zombies even act?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:43:51 UTC from web-
@flaxx The question is, can zombis be high? They don't even have working nerver, and don't breath.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:44:45 UTC from web-
@nerthos That's it, we need to get the zombies brains and a nerve system so they can get high.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:46:19 UTC from web-
@flaxx Lol. Bring the medical stuff!
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:47:30 UTC from web-
@nerthos But I have no medical stuff!
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:48:08 UTC from web-
@flaxx Let's steal some! We need knifes, an operation table, needles, a saw, yarn, stuff that goes "BEEP....BEEP" to add some dramatism, and glue. LOTS of glue.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:49:33 UTC from web-
@nerthos Sorry, I... 'used' all the glue yesterday.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:50:41 UTC from web-
@flaxx Oh. Well, it's time to buy more, I guess. Without it the things would fall off the zombis.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:52:24 UTC from web-
@nerthos Damn zombies. They want to eat our brains /and/ they want us to glue them together so they can eat our brains.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:57:19 UTC from web-
@flaxx We could glue their mouths shut too. That way we're safe.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:59:32 UTC from web-
@nerthos They'd probably rip our brains out anyway just for the hell of it, though.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:01:32 UTC from web-
@flaxx Oh, well. Who says full plate is obsolete? Let's get some Daedric. If we can be zombi surgeons, we can get daedric armor too.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:06:34 UTC from web-
@nerthos Daedric sounds like a splendid idea. Heavy as all hell to carry around, though. But it's worth it.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:08:32 UTC from web-
@flaxx We have something the Nerevarine hadn't. Cars.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:10:40 UTC from web-
@nerthos We don't have Guars, though... ;_;
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:12:22 UTC from web-
@flaxx You're right. A couple of mules will have to do. I would love to have a pet scrib.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:14:18 UTC from web-
@nerthos Pet scrib is best scrib.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:16:48 UTC from web-
@flaxx I always liked those little guys. Don't know why. Maybe because they were the only ones not to try to murder me when I started playing.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:18:08 UTC from web-
@nerthos Their paralyse spell is extremely annoying in the beginning, though.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:19:52 UTC from web-
@flaxx But they don't hate you and do't attack on sight xD
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:21:32 UTC from web-
@nerthos That's true. I always tried to kill them anyway, though.I kind of used the "I HAVE TO KILL IT BEFORE IT KILLS ME" tactic in the beginning, so I charged even if they didn't attack me on sight. >.>
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:24:17 UTC from web-
@flaxx I always felt bad when I killed some of them with an area spell or in those situations when three dremora are behind you, and you just shiver at whatever shows before you, raining fiery death upon it, all the while thinking "ohgodohgodohgod it'sgoingtokillme"
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:26:01 UTC from web-
@nerthos Haha, yeah, I remember that. Also reminds me of that quest in the Balmora Mages Guild where you had to escort a guy to Pelagiad, and every time you try to defend him from a Guar or whatever, he'll cast an AoE spell that kills both you and the monster.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:31:25 UTC from web-
@flaxx Fun fact, I was wearing the Lord's mail, those two unique gloves, daedric face of god, and all daedric stuff but the right shoulderpad; a daedric tower shield and nerevar's sword when I did mages guild quests xD
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:33:21 UTC from web-
@nerthos Damn, I never managed to get my hooves on the Lord's Mail (and please don't spoil how to do it). That's a pretty impressive piece of equipment, though. I always did the Mages Guild quests in the beginnings because it was mostly just gather flowers and silly stuff like that.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:35:46 UTC from web-
@flaxx There's a quest, even if you can get it from the beginning. Do the imperial legion quests, and when you're knight or something like that, go to Ebonarm (if I remember it's name correctly) and start the imperial quest there.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:38:17 UTC from web-
@nerthos I thought I just said I didn't want to know?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:40:17 UTC from web-
@flaxx Hey, I didn't say how you get it. That directs you to lots of quests.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:40:48 UTC from web-
@nerthos True. Oh well, I barely play Morrowind any more, so I'll manage to forget stuff anyway.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:42:49 UTC from web-
@flaxx I play it now and then, when I'm bored and only have my netbook xD
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:43:25 UTC from web-
@nerthos Heh, I did play a bit a week ago or so. Gotta finish the expansions sometime.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:44:20 UTC from web-
@flaxx True. I'm still at the start of Bloodmoon, just after the fort thing.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:45:16 UTC from web-
@nerthos I managed to get quite far on Bloodmoon, but then I couldn't find a guy, and my computer broke down and yada yada yada so I lost my save file. That was years ago, though. Never did get very far on Tribunal.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:46:32 UTC from web-
@flaxx Tribunal is fun, but kind of evil. Very dark. Sotha Sil T.T
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:47:08 UTC from web-
@nerthos Yeah, I haven't gotten very far, so I barely even know what it's about. Other than that the Tribunal are a big part of it, obviously.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:49:18 UTC from web-
@flaxx Murnhold, Almalexia, the king of Mournhold and the imperial interests.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:50:28 UTC from web-
@nerthos Ah. Pretty much what I expected. Damn Imperials, always getting in everyone else's business.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:52:59 UTC from web-
@flaxx The imperials only do a bit of what happens, and it's better for Mournhold than the other way around, you'll see.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:53:48 UTC from web-
@nerthos Well, yeah. And I don't really have anything against the Empire.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:57:44 UTC from web-
@flaxx I like Uriel Septim VII's empire. Fourth age Empire is another thing.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 01:58:56 UTC from web-
@nerthos Agh, it's been too long since I done any Elder Scrolling. I've already forgotten almost all the lore. Gotta start up Morrowind and start reading my library.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:00:07 UTC from web-
@flaxx Forgotten the lore? HOW CAN YOU! I read every single book in all games xD All my Elder Scrolls houses are full of useless but lore-related stuff, and I never sell any unique item.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:03:10 UTC from web-
@nerthos I keep all the books I find and stack them in my house to read from time to time. I'm usually busy with other stuff, though, so I don't often read much. >.>
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:04:54 UTC from web-
@flaxx I only remove books from my inventory after reading them.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:06:25 UTC from web-
@nerthos But they're heavy to carry around!
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:07:56 UTC from web-
@flaxx Whenever I get home I read everything and drop the books. Also I always build humongous carry capacity, pack mule is best TES class.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:09:07 UTC from web-
@nerthos True, but when you're a Mage it gets kind of difficult to be strong as well. :P
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:10:18 UTC from web-
@flaxx The thing I like about TES is being able to excel in everything. I'm always omnipotent when I'm near the end of one.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:13:33 UTC from web-
@nerthos True, but I suck at playing for a long time on the same character, so I haven't really maxed out much on my Mage yet. Or wait... Perhaps I did max out Intelligence and Willpower, so I guess I'll be going for Strength and Endurance now.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:15:11 UTC from web-
@flaxx I play on the same characte until I'm so OP nothing stays alive more than 3 seconds in front of me. Then I play a second character, but it becomes OP at lvl 23 instead of 50. Killed Camoran in Oblivion with spell reflection. -spoiler- [sp]Nyznyrkvn[/sp] in Morrowind in like, 10 seconds, and ancient dragons on Skyrim in four seconds.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:18:46 UTC from web-
@nerthos Heh, you're more dedicated than me, then. :b I never did finish Oblivion, nor Skyrim. I'll have to do that. Only !TES games I finished were Morrowind and Arena, so I still have some stuff to do. >.>
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:20:39 UTC from web-
@flaxx I still have to figure how to do dungeons on Daggerfall xD
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:21:37 UTC from web-
@nerthos Dungeons in Daggerfall are fun but they take so much time. Reminds me that I should totally try finishing that game as well. Because it's awesome. And heh, I guess you're lucky then. :b
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:23:13 UTC from web-
@flaxx It happens to me since always. Maybe I'm just natural to it. The problem with Daggerfall, is that the dungeons don't even fit on the province! The game is so amazingly detailed, but those massive complex of tunnels and castle rooms just don't end. Hours of the same texture over and over.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:25:36 UTC from web-
@nerthos Have you tried Arena? It's worse, believe me.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:27:31 UTC from web-
@flaxx When I played it, I quit after the first goblin. When you don't know you have to drag the mouse to attack, it's very difficult. Still I miss those kind of games xD playing hours and hours, and the game still being incredibly hard. Modern ones are easy xD
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:29:27 UTC from web-
@nerthos I agree. Casualisation and all that jazz. I don't want games to hold my hand through the whole game. Let me loose in a big world and let me figure out what the hell I'm doing myself, damn it!
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:31:51 UTC from web-
@flaxx And a cart. PLEASE, GUYS, LET US BUY A CART
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:32:37 UTC from web-
@nerthos Also, money with weight. It was so fun to decide wether to hold a couple thousand coins or a sword.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:34:44 UTC from web -
@nerthos Yes please, that would make things so much easier. It'd be like Daggerfall with its horses and carts and stuff.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:34:59 UTC from web-
@flaxx The random NPCs were good too, in Daggerfall cities felt alive. You could see that the town was the capital and not some village, with hundreds of sprites walking everywhere, and 10 minutes walk from one point to another. Since then, cities felt so small. Vivec was OK, but all the others... I mean, the imperial city holding no more than 200 people? It felt good to see lots of people walking around you.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:37:34 UTC from web-
@nerthos Exactly. I miss that. The Imperial City is kind of pathetic, to be honest. I mean, seriously, it's smaller than the tiny village I live in. The Arena and Daggerfall cities are great, even if the people don't really do anything else than walking around it. It still feels more like a real city.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:42:12 UTC from web-
@flaxx It's funny how we "old school players" like the same stuff, just some immersion, even if it's at the cost of graphics. I never felt really immersive anything older than '90s. Graphically beautiful, yes, but games with lots of graphics just don't do the same as old ones; them, with sprites and basic geometry, could make people feel like in a box surrounded by evil, or real bliss, or just jump of the chair screaming.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:47:47 UTC from web-
@nerthos That'd be my opinions surrounding the early Final Fantasy games. Much better than FF7, FF8, FF9... Though I quite enjoyed 9.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:48:48 UTC from web-
@forestrain I enjoyed FF8 more than FF7. Never played 9, but I enjoyed 10
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:49:26 UTC from web-
@axelgunn FF9 was alright.

@forestrain Old sprited games had that feeling of serious stuff, so well made.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:49:57 UTC from web -
@forestrain FF3 is best FF
-
@zennx Hopefully you mean FF3 as in 3/6j. If so, yes. If not, then NO! FF3 was TERRIBLE. <_> (Though, first introduction of a class system with onion kids being all powerful.)
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:57:15 UTC from web-
@forestrain You shut your face, FF3 was the best, it has a flying tree fortress who'se boss requires you to use the worst class in the game to make it easy!!
-
@zennx I couldn't stand FF3... I think I've actually gotten closer to finishing FF2 than 3. I also really enjoyed FF5, despite nobody else enjoying it. <_>
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:09:58 UTC from web-
@forestrain I LOVED FF5
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:10:29 UTC from web-
@minti >Has FF5
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:11:13 UTC from web-
@princesshugs Which one was 5 again?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:11:46 UTC from web-
@axelgunn I forget but the main characters name if you didn't give him was... Bartz? and I had it for the GBA.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:12:45 UTC from web-
@princesshugs OOOH Bartz. Yeah I know him from Dissidia. I liked that guy
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:13:11 UTC from web

@princesshugs that's the one with the same job system as 3 right, Loved that one... I'm waiting for a remake... but so far only the GBA one...

@forestrain I've NEVER played 6. Never, I refuse.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:19:19 UTC from web-
@minti Which one was 6?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:19:33 UTC from web-
@axelgunn The one with Terra I think, and Kefka.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:19:52 UTC from web-
@minti WHY YOU NO PLAY WITH TERRA AND KEFKA?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:20:19 UTC from web-
@axelgunn @forestrain I dunno. I just really hate the intro. I'm going to have so many people rage at me for this.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:20:54 UTC from web-
@minti Actually, I do too. The intro totally put me off of the game when I was... like... 5. >.>

@nerthos Precisely. While good graphics can do lots for a game, no matter how amazing the graphics are, it just doesn't make a good game. I mean, of course I love watching beautiful landscapes and such, but I'd rather play something that's actually well made and entertaining, than something that just looks good. You can paint a pile of crap gold, but it's still a pile of crap.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:52:07 UTC from web-
@flaxx Yeah.. the majority of the game should be its storyline and addictivity (idc if that's not a word). The same could be applied to sound. Even if you have a lot of pretty packaging around a CD, but the CD contained Beiber, then it is still audio trauma...
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:54:24 UTC from web-
@the20percent Well said. Although, all games are different. A good story + fun gameplay can make a great game. As can a good story + beautiful graphics. As well as fun gameplay + beautiful graphics. Just look at Just Cause 2. The story isn't the least impressive, but it's still entertaining as hell, and looks great.

@zennx I see nothing wrong with the PC controls. Nothing you can't get used to.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:02:08 UTC from web-
@flaxx actually, I can't get used to console controllers, especially when you're messing around with the thumbsticks, as aiming with those things is just flat out torture
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:03:35 UTC from web-
@the20percent Same here. I almost only play games on PC. Apart from Guitar Hero and platformers. I never play FPS on console. Just can't do it.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:06:45 UTC from web
-
-
@flaxx that's the problem controlls should not make you get used to them, they should feel intuitive and funcional
-
@zennx Well, to be fair, you always have to get used to controls to some degree. For me on Just Cause 2, it was like "Aim and shoot with mouse, move with WASD, jump with spacebar, enter vehicles with e", and that's enough for me. Then of course all the buttons for other stuff aren't the same as all other games, but it's easy enough to get used to if you ask me.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:08:41 UTC from web-
-
@zennx Are we talking Human Revolution or the old one? Because I've only played the first Deus Ex, and that was a few months ago. Never really got very far though, but that was more because I suck at thinking and I'm too stubborn to look up walkthroughs online.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:12:13 UTC from web-
@flaxx both, tho the first Deus Ex was much more complex in terms of the skill tree, but still had a simple key system
-
@zennx Yeah, I remember the keys were pretty much normal FPS keys.

@flaxx Just Cause 2 I haven't played.. only Just Cause 1 for the original Xbox... but it varies from person to person on what a game should contain.. for me, I play games like minecraft, and I'm happy enough with the graphics. I guess, it should be everything which you expect it be, if not more. Then it is a good game. If not, rage quit and toss the disk into a blender
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:02:04 UTC from web-
@the20percent Of course, I'm not saying everyone should love Just Cause 2. I'm just saying the lack of a good story doesn't automatically make a game bad. It can still have amazingly fun gameplay etc. And yes, Minecraft is fun as well (even though I've kind of gotten tired of it now).
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:04:19 UTC from web-
@flaxx true enough..

@zennx Half Life 1 :D
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:05:53 UTC from web-
@nerthos the gameplay is good, but the story is lacking it's basicaly: "apples has gone down GTFO"

@zennx I loved the story xD

@nerthos Half Life 1 was amazing.

@flaxx That thrill when on the silo stages, and suddenly the sound of steel bending...
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:11:42 UTC from web-
@nerthos To be honest, it's been years since I played HL1, and I'm not sure if I ever finished it, so I don't remember very much. >.>
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:13:24 UTC from web-
@flaxx Just play it with an old CRT. It's not the same with those bright LCD od LED monitors.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:14:17 UTC from web-
@nerthos Hm... I don't remember if we have any CRT's left, really. I would play on one if I could though. Because CRT <3
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:15:09 UTC from web-
@flaxx Why don't you have one? I still use them. So good.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:15:55 UTC from web-
@nerthos Well, I only use my laptop nowadays, so it's mostly my dad and my stepbrothers who mess around with the desktop computers, and I'm pretty sure they threw those out. :/
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:18:01 UTC from web-
@flaxx Go on ebay and buy an old 15" CRT.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:21:21 UTC from web-
@nerthos pay $3 for the actual monitor, $30 for shipping...
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:21:54 UTC from web-
@the20percent Doesn't matter, you can't play old games as you should with flat stuff.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:22:28 UTC from web-
@nerthos idk... I have an unglazed LCD and it kinda feels like a higher res CRT... I'll even say that it runs my Commodore 128 emulator
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:24:31 UTC from web-
@the20percent Fun thing, CRTs are able to reach higher definitions than LCDs or LEDs, and have better antialising, since they don't have real pixels.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:25:31 UTC from web-
@nerthos The programmer in me keeps thinking your talking about a Common Run-Time library. Goddamnit.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:26:26 UTC from web -
@nerthos though the aspect ratio is the real limiter for CRT's... I believe they are 4:3, whereas most newer resolutions are 16:9 or 16:10
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:26:48 UTC from web-
@the20percent I love 4:3. I'm not going to buy a lame 16:9. EVER.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:27:41 UTC from web-
@nerthos but... but... its really good! I've been using 1440x900 for years now, and never looked back... even though its not quite 16:9, there isn't much difference
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:29:57 UTC from web-
@the20percent Come on, they say it's 40" but it has the area of an 28" 4:3. It's awful. Things fit in awful manners. Don't get me started on the issue.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:32:01 UTC from web-
@nerthos *le getting you started on the issue*
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:33:20 UTC from web-
@the20percent Seriously. Talking to me about that is like saying "BURN ALL THE HOMOS" to all those guys who rage about it without reason.

@the20percent The only difference is that I know how to handle myself, even if it's just for the sake of not being a completely useless and lame human being.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:36:43 UTC from web-
@nerthos true, you do handle yourself...
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:37:37 UTC from web-
@the20percent I believe that if I'm not able to conquer my own mind, I'm not worth of claiming anything.

-
@zennx but he's one of the main protagonists...
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:09:44 UTC from web-
@the20percent arguably he's the antagonist, if it weren't for him the ducks wouldn't be flying, and if you miss he taunts you.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:11:10 UTC from web-

@flaxx I think good graphics in fact hinder the immersion a game can offer. I at least, can't feel the same in a game with three thousand polygons per model. I just indentify them as big masses of graphics, and can't be impressed by them more than "Wow, that's beautiful" because the graphics are too good to focus in other stuff.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:56:49 UTC from web-
@nerthos Hm... Can't say I agree with you there. Good graphics are usually a plus for me, but I'll never play a game only for the graphics. But to each their own, I guess.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 02:59:50 UTC from web-
@flaxx Don't get me wrong, I love good graphics, but games with good graphics don't feel so deep to me. If they reach life-like levels, they could, but those enviroments, like doom backgrounds, were magical. It's maybe due to being unimpressed by things that look real.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:02:35 UTC from web-
@nerthos Might be. And I agree with you on Diablo. At least Diablo II, I never played the first one much. The second's environments were absolutely amazing.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:05:57 UTC from web-
@flaxx Yes, even if Diablo 1's hell levels were more "dark" and "evil" than Diablo 2's. Those games were amazing. I feel bad for Diablo 3 and it's cartoonish style. I think all that has something to do with the fact than in the '90s games weren't such a big thing as they are today, and soccer moms and other lame stuff like then weren't complaining about everything, so there wasn't any kind of limitation in game history and art.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:08:52 UTC from web-
@nerthos That's true. Although, I doubt Diablo III will end up as a bad game just because of that. From what I've heard from people who played the beta, it's supposed to be awesome. So I'm just crossing my fingers. :b
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:11:07 UTC from web-
@flaxx I didn't download the beta. But there's one reason why I know it isn't going to be as good as Diablo 2: It's meant to be played in groups.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:12:25 UTC from web-
@nerthos Oh, of course it won't be as good as Diablo 2. But that's like saying Skyrim won't be very good because it won't be (or more like isn't) the new Morrowind. Still good games, even if they're not exactly what we want.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:14:17 UTC from web -
@nerthos I loved Diablo II.. one thing I miss about windows is the gaming capabilities. On the other hand, they are probably going to expand Baulder's Gate
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:15:42 UTC from web-
@the20percent Wait, new Baldur's Gate?
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:16:29 UTC from web-
@nerthos I heard Blizzard is going to expand the baulder's gate series.. a 3rd one I believe is coming out after a hiatus from 2004.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:17:44 UTC from web-
@the20percent Blizzard? With Baldur's Gate? NO. YOU CAN'T BE SERIOUS. NO cherries NO. Excuse me, I'm going to behead myself with a sword made of bubblegum.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:19:23 UTC from web-
@nerthos *insert trollface here*
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:20:55 UTC from web -
@nerthos but no... I think bioware is doing something with it... either a complete set for Baulder Gate 2, or a port to tablets, Idk... but there ARE rumors that something's being done.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:22:58 UTC from web-
@the20percent They did Dragon Age because Atari owns Baldur's Gate now.
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 03:24:09 UTC from web-
@nerthos Dragon Age was good... Completed 1, working on Expansion Pack, but too broke to buy DA2.

Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:27:47 UTC from web-
@minti I agree with this idea
Sunday, 04-Mar-12 00:28:17 UTC from web-
@axelgunn @decibel @zimzap I was kidding, that's the worst idea ever. Ponies may be amazing but they're not for everyone. For example I have a cousin who refuses to watch it because the fanbase is annoying and constantly trying to shove ponieifed memes in his face, I respect his decision. #centcent

@thatonepony I don't mind that just... It wasn't... The gameplay and story and characters (save for Verric) are bland. Anders was the worst thing about the game. The ruined him.
