    Sign Up for the Closed Beta of the Fallout 4 Creation Kit

    I genuinely can't remember the last time Bethesda actually made any "mechanical changes" within their DLC. Like, seriously, the only thing that would be affected (to my knowledge) would be the fact that you wouldn't be able to use a mod which uses resources from the DLC. Secondly, anyone who...

    Sign Up for the Closed Beta of the Fallout 4 Creation Kit

    Yep, that confirms it, Bethesda delayed the release of the GECK intentionally to try to boost DLC sales because the sole redeeming factor of their games at this one point was too intimidating to be released. Good job Bethesda, you've gone past "mediocre" and into the asshole territory, thanks...

    Am I Wrong to feel Vindicated by this 'Censorship'?

    Can we just admit the fact that Blizzard (or any corporation that churns out video games, large or small) is really just in it for the money? If public opinion is changing in such a way that Blizzard will shit a brick because people might get offended by something and it will hurt their bottom...

    How much have you changed?

    Optimistic, carefree and weird. Embittered, anxiety filled and weird. Not particularly, if you were to chart it out, my current standing is the logical next step in the downward spiral.

    Popular things that you just don't get the appeal of.

    Social networking, Selfies, reproduction, monarchy and Jeremy Kyle (ESPECIALLY Jeremy Kyle). Jeremy Kyle is literally Hitler, nah, fuck that, Hitler had the potential to make a pretty painting, Jeremy Kyle exploits the naive and impoverished for his own ego. Oh and heritage/pride in your...

    8 Bit Philosophy: Does Money Own You?

    Wait wait wait, how does the inclusion of money suddenly make people into some sort of slave or sociopath? Capitalism does that, a turnip has no more value than a paper dollar. We dictate the value of life, paper money just makes it easier. Everything boiling down to "numbers" is a...

    What does the escapist think of Totalbiscuit?

    I expressed my opinion on this issue once and I almost got permanently banned but I'll try to put it in a way which sums up my feelings on TotalBiscuit (as far as his persona goes, I know more about Karma Sutra than I do about John Bain): He comes across as a bitter pseudo-intellectual (to...

    So what's the story behind YOUR avatar pic?

    I was known as the poor-kid in school (That and for being borked in the brainpan), so I decided to choose a picture which both looked poor and deranged. The picture is of William Todd, a homeless man in Mississippi who was photographed by a guy called Matt Kenlon (Kenlon going to Mississippi to...

    Fallout 4's Script Is Bigger Than Skyrim And Fallout 3 Combined

    Oh bigger than Skyrim's? Oohh, how great, can't wait to here the same 3 voice actors drone on and stare blankly at me, really captures the mood. Fucking bullshit, "bigger"? Do you think I'm 13 Bethesda? I want better, I want refinement, I'd take a 10 hour game that gripped me like no other over...

    What are our concerns about X-COM2?

    Concerns? Well: - Don't just throw in a few gimmicks and claim it is a sequel, I want real tangible change in the game. - I want more in-depth combat, more strategy, more intelligent AI. Make me feel like I'm actually fighting soldiers here. - Thin Mints can git fucked on higher...

    Google Cracks Down on Adblock

    The way I see it, forcing me to watch anything will make me hate it. I'm not your *****, google. Go ahead and spy on me (this is satirical, I'm not giving you explicit permission to spy on me Google Inc.), go ahead and actively stagnate and make content creation shit (I saw Jeremy Kyle and...

    The state of the US prison system.

    To quote a comedian: It's one big system of private corporations, profiling, dehumanization and shoddy laws, all held together by the complacency of an apathetic public who's too busy getting their rocks off by flinging shit at each other than having an original thought. Yet another thing to...

    Xbox Boss Phil Spencer Wants Gamers to be the "Center of our Decisions"

    This is kind of like saying "the unemployment space is so healthy right now", really sad. I'm not sure which is sadder, the fact that he will just spew bullshit without batting an eyelid or even dying a bit inside (I guess you need to have a soul for that) or the fact that he claims that the...

    8 Bit Philosophy: Does Rationality Give Life Meaning?

    It sounds like Kierkegraard was just being an apologist for his own irrationality, finding meaning in the irrational and just throwing up the "faith" argument to the implications that existentialism brings up in regards to a "higher power". Not that I adhere to rationality, the entire world...

    A challenge to the PC master race

    And the console's ability to hide them is very impressive. You know, stealing No Man's Sky and all... YOU HEAR THAT SONY? I WANT MY RECORDS BACK, I WANT MY FUCKING RECORDS BACK. But that is easy: 1. You need to watch at least 1-2 youtube videos to learn how to work with it (in a technical...
