    Games/mechanics that make you feel "badass"

    Ah the good ol' Shitadel. Nothing like when some LS that couldn't handle Serket trained him to the zone past all the exp parties pre-despawn patch. The good ol' days. =D

    Forum Bans

    Hey everyone, I haven't been on the site in quite a while, probably between 6 months to a year, IIRC. Upon my return, I've noticed a LOT of people being banned on forums for posts that really don't seem like they deserve a ban. I won't get into any specifics, I'm just wondering if something...

    The Forum Rules

    I just had to read through the new forum rules, I haven't been here in a long time, since most of the content I came here for is now gone/available elsewhere. Having had to read the wall of text that was the new rules, and type I AGREE at the bottom (it literally forces all caps), I felt...

    Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire Funded in One Day, First Stretch Goal Added

    Quick question... If PoE was so financially successful, and since we all know Obsidian isn't a small indie studio, why are they crowdfunding the money for the development of the game? Will it be free, since it's development is paid for already? Honestly, I don't understand. It's like...

    Video Shows What Man of Steel Would Look Like in Vibrant Color

    The movie being shit just tied into superman even more, because he is, in fact, the shit pile of the superhero world. "Look, I only have one weakness, and every villain somehow manages to find some, even though it's a shard of my blown up home planet from the other side of the universe and...

    Does Music Today Suck Now, Or Am I Finally 'Old'?

    Isn't Lorde the singer who made that terrible Royals song? Well, at least she doesn't sound like an asthmatic frog impersonating Sicki Minaj, which can't be said about Iggy.

    [Update 2] How/why are console gamers satisfied with 30 fps?

    I have my PS3 hooked up to an old tube style TV. No HD graphics to see things in the distance, 30fps from the console, and I still regularly get top of the lobby or close in FPS games on it. So, really, the frames per second and special graphics mean nothing if you have skill at the game...

    Text Guardians of the Galaxy's Groot Your Innermost Secrets

    Until I learned of these characters, I thought DC always had the dumbest ideas out of the 2 companies... now I'm not so sure...

    Is it time for feminists to step off our hobby?

    Good points. I guess it would have to depend on the genre of film in question. There aren't many action movies with well-developed characters. In games, I think a limiting factor is that games are meant to be interactive, and in television/film we just sit back and watch. A lot of people lose...

    Is it time for feminists to step off our hobby?

    Actually, video games typically do restrict character depth, simply due to the length of content. Most games just don't have the time a TV show or novel has to flesh out characters. You're talking tens, if not hundreds of hours in TV shows, all of it character interaction or decision making...

    BBC Cuts Doctor Who Beheading

    Letting the acts of terrorists influence your life in this way grants them victory in their eyes, no matter how small. At least from what I know of that kind of psyche.
