    Between Saints Row 3 and 4, which is better?

    If starting from scratch with no knowledge of any of the games, I'd start with SR2. (which is where I began originally and honestly, I know nothing about SR1) That was pure gangwar, mostly straight humour while a bit over the top and random psychopathy. SR3 amped it up and made it more...

    WTF is a Red Piller?

    I think perhaps a different kind of pill would be equally appropriate http://i.cdn.turner.com/trutv/trutv.com/graphics/photos/notorious_murders/family/nancy_kissel/Rohypnol-pills200.jpg Well, apart from the colour that is.

    WTF is a Red Piller?

    It appeals to the desire of people to feel smart and special. They are now part of the special few with an insight into reality that most of the sheeple out there don't. Of course sometimes they might be, but often, they're simply delusional.

    WTF is a Red Piller?

    The phrase "A more wretched hive of scum and villainy" could be said to have been coined in expectation of the creation of www dot 4chan dot org/b. It's full of very young and some much older "beta males", to use their own terminology, who essentially do their best to cross every red line in...

    Dragon Age: Inquisition to Have 40 Different Endings - Update

    Look at a paint catalogue or at a graphics program that lets you mix 256 shades each of red, blue and green. It's probably just a text and graphic based ending. Flash up to 40 different combinations of them = easy peasy. Just have good, evil, neutral endings swapping in and out different...

    Dark Souls 2 is sadistic.

    Well I managed to beat him. It all came together well, I simply didn't stand right next to him but at a short-medium distance, strafed to the right, rolling when he charged at/past me (I stayed away from the walls so he'd move past) then I ran up behind him and hit him once and just repeated it...

    Dark Souls 2 is sadistic.

    Well, I'm getting slapped around atm by the Pursuer, a very large armored knight who hovers in mid air and charges (flies) towards you, ending with a big swing of his massive sword, occasionally doing three swings in a row and messing your shit up. Died many times and lost 5000 souls after...

    Is this negative "nice guy" stereotype actually a thing?

    Well, I didn't mean outright manipulation, I meant more along the lines of being someone respected in society, who's able to make friends and speak up for himself and others, as opposed to a wallflower. Able to influence people in terms of being listened to when they make good points, rather...

    Is this negative "nice guy" stereotype actually a thing?

    I think this applies somewhat to the "nice guy" scenario - http://www.cracked.com/blog/6-harsh-truths-that-will-make-you-better-person/ "Let's say that the person you love the most has just been shot. He or she is lying in the street, bleeding and screaming. A guy rushes up and says, "Step...

    Are humans, animals?

    Exactly MrFalconfly, "money can be exchanged for goods and services", so it's just one minor step removed from all those animal necessities and "wants" (many of them actually necessary for optimal functioning). Much like us and our cognitive faculties. I think it boils down to ignorance of basic...

    Poll: Are you happy with your weight?

    195cm/6'4", ~240lbs, ideally would like to be just over 200lbs. Bit flabby, but it doesn't markedly show, though I'm a long way from seeing my abs :)

    Are humans, animals?

    Of course we're animals, unless you think we're vegetables or minerals. We just happen to have traded off certain things for heightened intelligence, tool-using/making and cooperation (despite people sometimes whining about how we're a virus on planet earth and rubbish like that). Maybe if we...

    Dark Souls isn't an RPG

    I just assumed Dark Souls falls into the category of self torture simulator.

    Poll: Is Not Dating a Certain Race Racist?

    Eh, racism is the belief that someone of another race (or presenting with certain physical characteristics typical of said race, however loose the definition of race may be) is inferior or subhuman because of those characteristics. I've read that racial sexual preference appears to be developed...

    Poll: Is Not Dating a Certain Race Racist?

    It's not racist if you don't find people of a certain race particularly attractive. It can certainly be highly offensive if you tell everyone this. Apparently, it pretty much depends on what people were around you as you were growing up as to who you find attractive. Racism is separate from who...
