Post: RE: General Game Chat

But the difference with Wind Waker and MGS 2 is that the general consensus turned around for them, and are now regarded as legitimately good despite the backlash. Fallout 3 went on a huge sine wave, w...

Jebus. Speaking of comedy of errors, we had another Pathfinder game today, and it got terrifying. We ran into undead, and for those that don't know DnD/Pathfinder, undead are a legitimately terrifying...

Maybe? I doubt it, tbh. I'll probably just hear little plot beats here and there from my friends as they go on about it. Given a chance, they will go on LOOOOOOONG dives about any show that crosses th...

I have legitimately heard nothing but good things about the Fallout TV series, which is impressive given its a TV adaptation of a video game. Let's be honest, they've been hit-or-miss (looking at you,...

Make a new character and get inserted later. I've been through a few character deaths, so it's nothing new. You're just out until the GM can find a place to insert your new character. Unless you volun...

No, no; it's just that they'd be taking an encounter balanced for 4 players, and doing it with 3 players lol. I plan to open with a Force Barrage, blasting the main spider for an auto-hitting 3d4+3. H...

Post: RE: Will 60fps Someday Be Viewed Like 30fps?

I hope that we stick to 60 fps as the standard. While higher fps is great for control responsiveness, it doesn't do anything but put strain on processors and GPUs for barely a marked difference. Also,...

That is absolutely terrible juxtaposition, but I think it never made it to Wikipedia because it was a one-off. If that happened repeatedly, then we'd see an entry about it on Wikipedia. The "stick"...
