I was a tad surprised when I tested as being INTJ, as I have typically been an INTP until then. Either way, the first two letters had very strong values attached to them, the third is slightly skewed, and the last has always been middling. Maybe aging has made me a better judge?

I usually love the game before I purchase it, or I wouldn't have taken the risk in the first place. (The exceptions here being games within the Humble Bundles, where I'm more likely to just go for it for the sake of charity, or Steam sales, where games can be under $3 regularly.) If I end up...

Paraphrasing a bit, "[anything] sufficiently complicated is indistinguishable from magic." Most things, given the chaotic nature of the world, have numerous variables that we can't fully understand yet. Why do you think meteorologists always promise a 40% chance of anything? Odds are, even...

Some games may have more innovation in them than others, but many are very similar to each other. As soon as something comes out to break the mold, many developers seem to clamor around it and make clones, which are often good games. Binding of Isaac is a very enjoyable game, for instance, and...

Vash the Stampede. He was in to loving and tolerating the shit out of people before it was cool.

Considering world of warcrack, I'd have to go with blizzard.

I have finished games that I hate and will not come back to, yet I still haven't gotten around to completing the SCII campaign. I think the more prominent point is that I often return to games I like. Zelda II drove me insane as a little kid, but I finally got around to beating it in...

I feel like there should definitely be a hybrid of these. I like how in Marvel vs Capcom method of health, where about half of the damage you take is temporary, and very slowly regenerates. It seems like that if you get hit to a certain degree, there should be no way to just walk it off, but...

I never understood the concept of right of way defaulting to non-cars. Seriously, it makes zero sense when you think about it. A pedestrian walking can stop, turn around, and sprint in the other direction at the drop of a hat, but a motor vehicle travels a distance equivalent to approximately...

In my college, it was entirely up to the professors. Some gave you dirty looks, some made you buy Oreos for the next class, others remembered who had smartphones and used them to look up cool stuff. There were several professors that, if your phone made audible noise or you were caught looking...

I know better than to put faith in a game developer, so I probably would not get mad at them in the first place. Been disappointed too often to really expect everything the hype brings.

I really do not give a damn about how the world sees a person whom you love; it is how you see the person whom you love. If she treats me with more kindness than any other person, then I do not care what her job is. Look at it this way - if she is putting you to shame anywhere, either you...

I am not a bad person, but I have done nothing deserving of heaven.

Cerberus, Satyr, Cockatrice, Basilisk, Pegasus, and Floating Eye for fictional creatures. Pirates, Sea Urchins, and Constrictor (as opposed to venomous snakes) for real things. Oh well, Someone will refute something on that list I am certain. I'd wager Dratini/Dragonair are more Chinese...

Pretty much this. I feel bad for the people who contract diseases from unfortunate circumstances, like getting a blood transfusion. But I would never volunteer myself for being injected with the virus later to test the immune response. I just have no luck, and I would be the failed test subject.
