    Why to RPG players say these things...

    Vent time! I love it when people in my pen and paper RPG circle come out with stuff like this. "Haha man, you're totally gonna hate my new cleric for this Pathfinder game. He's a healing beast. He's got like 8 channel energies a day and the healing domain, he's never gonna let any of the...

    Achievements/Trophies as mottoes

    Ain't No Cavalry Coming: X-com EU for clearing a play through with a soldier that survives every mission. I feel its got that 'No one else is gonna help you bar yourself' vibe.

    Moments today when you bricked it....

    So today I'm reinstalling Legend of Grimrock, going through the usual steam nonsense of updating Direct X/installing more files/doing a rain dance to Gabe Newell, and in the background I've got youtube open and have decided to watch some Mr Creepy Pasta. The video I'm watching is this one, 'The...

    Recommend me a blogging site?

    So yeah, I'm looking to start a blog on D&D related topics and GMing. I know there's hundreds but dammit, this one will be mine. However I've absolutely no idea where to start. There's a lot of choice in terms of sites to use and I've no experience in the area before. So recommend me a site...

    Are you....?

    I could go either way. Useless but hey. I started my new uni placement today, which went really well, but last night the girl who made me mess up my last placement called me at 2am after a near 2 month break in communications. Normally I'd pick up because apparently I'm completely...

    Criticise your favourite game

    Glad to see some FF8 fans here, thought I was the only one... Still here goes. FF8: Junctioning, while very unique and fun, gave the characters no individual combat styles at all. Plus at the end of the game you just junction crazy shit to all your stats and away you go. ME3: Dialogue...

    The last way you died in a videogame is how you are going to die IRL

    Shot through the head by a lascannon? Quick, and space marines exist. Fucking win.

    Quotes from fictional characters that made you stop and think or have stuck with you.

    "There is no good or evil. All there is is a difference of opinion." Squall, Final Fantasy XIII Squall has always been my fave FF character in terms of personality, and its because his inner monologue is both the funniest and most insightful character in that game. This is a quote I've used...

    Biggest FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUU- moment.

    Say something negative about something you love.

    Magic the Gathering: For the love of god titans are expensive! Less great cards at mythic plz. Or just no mythics. Considering the profit margin must be pretty fucking huge charging the prices they do for cards we don't need more stupidly rare good shit. WoW: Pugging as a dps is shite, bring...

    On the Katana and it's wielder.

    As far as i understand it, the katana was perfectly fine in its environment. It didn't have that much heavy armour to break on and only really parried other weapons of its style and weight (and bullets apparently...). It's more than likely the connection to Japan, nerd capital of the world, that...

    Zero Punctuation: World of Warcraft: Cataclysm

    Why do people raid at the endgame? Because it's fun? Is that really so hard to admit? I love my guildies and raiding with them has been a pleasure. Sure you get the odd stupidly hard boss or have to wait half the expansion for a bit of gear you need but thats life. Nothing beat when we downed...

    What scares you? How prone are you to being scared?

    Nothing supernatural, at least yet. I read faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar too much Lovecraft to find such things scary. If Cthulhu comes back tomorrow I'd honestly not be very surprised. One of the wierdest things I find scary is absolute darkness, especially being alone in it. Standard darkness like...

    What book are you currently reading?

    The Shattering, which is pretty good as denotes a Blizzard product. Oh, and the Cthulhutech rulebooks. Anime plus cthulhu makes a good universe.
