It's entirely human to feel more sympathetic towards good looking faces, but I'm ok with some diversity. They can look average or below average, if their other qualities are presented well. It must fit the game. You can play as a Nosferatu character in Vampire the masquerade: bloodlines. This...

And people told me "if you don't like Twilight, just act like it doesn't exist and ignore it". Good luck ignoring the army of giant screeching titans with flatulence claiming the same places I'd like to go to, as they are constantly swarmed with clouds of screeching harpies who have mastered...

That's the Thief 2014 reboot for me (it's so annoying to even bring up the title). I wasn't looking forward to this game, but still (had to) soak up every bit of information long before it was even officially announced. The years of waiting were a lot more interesting than the bare week I...

Ah, unemployment. Something I can repress as long as I'm studying. Lucky for me, at least the red cross will always take me back. When you got 18 in my country, you had the choice of being forced into completely useless military "training", or refuse and find social work for 1/3 of minimum...

Good thing I won't have time whatsoever to play a single one of these games at least until the end of next february. You save a lot of money when you don't have hobbies.

When my cat hears me leave my room upstairs, she often runs up the side of the stairs like a squirrel and makes funny noises. When someone is down there, they usually think she wants to greet me, but she always runs past me. She'll then just randomly wander off or sit there, and she'd avoid...

Pathologic. Its main selling points are the story and the unique kind of setting and atmosphere. But its also infamous for its horrendous English translation and dated graphics. You're one of three different healers in a 19th-century-ish rural russian town in the middle of nowhere, as it's...

Many people here getting mad at TF2 players who spam voice commands or pubstomp... Voicespammers often use scripts or do it out of habit, they don't pay attention or hope one in 12 guys gets mad. Same with people who dominate you. They're just playing the game and you probably look worse from...

How does your friend know how much charging costs? If your friends use his washing machine, TV, freezer, additional heating (especially if it's electrical), an electric oven, cooking plates, microwave, air conditioning or... well, pretty much ANYTHING, it would make a more noticeable impact on...

People adapt. When I was going to school, I bitched about having to get up early, not having enough free time. Then came working and university, and suddenly, my days would start at 5am and end 11pm. Or countless times, not end at all, and I'd manage two skipped nights and not even want to go to...

Oh no, now the animated-avatar-brigade is assembled here... Sorry, I'm not reading on, it's a pain. I cannot stop my eyes to flashing over to most your avatars every 2 seconds no matter how hard I try. Even those "subtle" ones distract me. This is one reason why I barely come here anymore, or...

The Soul Eater manga got me a little sour. I'm not prudish, but out of nowhere, this pervy humour comes up and sometimes goes too far. When I'm following a fun story with awesome fights and badass ridiculous fun characters, I'm not in the mood for tentacle porn, sexual assault with rape-y vibes...

A lot of games I played as a kid took me months or even years to complete. Some of them I couldn't finish, but eventually completed them over ten years later on nostalgia trips. Those would be The Lion King (NES), Chaos Break (a PS1 Resident-Evil-ish clone, I got stuck on the sudoku puzzle as a...

That end part almost makes me want to rewatch the entire thing in 3rd person mode, or better yet, from enemy POVs. Half the time, they'll just see some orange lightning blowing itself past them with grenades.

Achievements. Does anyone care about someone else's achievements? Do YOU check your achievement lists and go "oh yeah, I'm so proud of that, good memories"? The only one I ever tried was "carry the garden gnome through the entire game and put him in the rocket at the end of the game"-achievement...
