    Witcher 4!

    Haha! My wife too! I always envision Henry Cavill walking down the street, anywhere, any street, just getting showered by underwear wherever he goes. Like a goddam tickertape parade...

    Star Citizen has a griefer problem - Video

    While it hasn't gotten far enough to reach individual cheaters yet, Bungie has successfully sued Lavicheats, VeteranCheats, and AimJunkies for millions each (6.7m, 4.3m, and 12m respectively). Activision scored one too against EngineOwning UG for a cool million. So there has been some justice...

    Star Citizen has a griefer problem - Video

    That's the other side of the issue. The more PVP is enabled, the more attractive it is for cheat developers and exploiters. Along with that is RMT and people that start using that community as a source of income. The true extent of the cheat issue is debated, but even on the low end it's...

    Star Citizen has a griefer problem - Video

    I respectfully disagree. I think now is the perfect time to deep dive into the conversation. Not specifically now, but while development still has room to change. I've seen far too many games with relaxed pvp frameworks fail almost immediately. Millions of players show up to the game's...

    Star Citizen has a griefer problem - Video

    Many games have tried to mix PVP with PVE. Most have failed miserably. I would even argue that all have failed in that the "successes" are only after most of the PVE players leave and only PVP players that dabble in PVE remain. The problem is and always has been a combination of risk...

    The SQ42 demo "good" press?

    I don't know how it is with you all, but I stopped talking about Star Citizen. It felt too much like I was trying to convince my friends that the earth is flat. It's like bringing up the name Star Citizen lowers people's opinion of me. Like I am suddenly gullible and easily misguided. To the...

    My pocketknife The Tirant Razor V3. I have beat the piss out of it for a couple years now and it has stood up like a champ. I have been a fan of carrying a folding utility knife for a long time now because I hate sharpening knives. I bought this because it looked classy and was minimalistic. It...

    Avenger__1 video on ship combat as of 3.24

    If they can pull off always on PVP without resorting to PVE and PVP servers, it would be amazing. I hope they can, but I've only seen games die an early death trying to pull it off. People are going to be people. I don't blame anyone for that. However, the ones getting attacked will always...

    Avenger__1 video on ship combat as of 3.24

    100% this. It's one of the reasons why I haven't jumped back into the game. Non-consensual PVP is rarely gratifying for anyone but the aggressor. The main reason is because the aggressors in these encounters almost always make their actions incontestable. They attack with overwhelming force...

    Disney fails to have discrimination lawsuit dismissed

    While I hate seeing people get eviscerated over personal opinion, people have to realize that speaking your mind can have negative repercussions by now. You can say whatever you want in person, but putting something in writing online can be good or bad. Sometimes people write something that...

    Star Citizen hits $700M in funding

    I agree. It seems to me that the overhead is staggering in the game development sector. So numbers aren't as big as they seem. The one that stuck out to me was that Insomniac games sold to Sony for $229m, but Spiderman 2 took $300m to make. So the whole studio was valued at less than a...

    Do you Troll?

    Oooh, this is a lovely discussion. It is my opinion that trolling is a result of people not having any real world outlet, compounded by an unlimited lack of consequence, then multiplied again by an inability to have a spirited face to face conversation that is in opposition to theirs. There...
