    Update Game of Thrones Ep2 Spoilers - Told Ya Snow

    As long as they keep the Greyjoy MinInvasion of Essos I'm going to be a happy trooper. Also I didn't think it was too bad, it did all an opening episode was meant to without too many cock-ups. Sand Snakes are still the worst group of characters in the show though.

    I don't get it. Free Speech Under Threat At University? (Added Extra)

    I'm currently studying at one of the Universities that was at the centre of a 'Free Speech/Censorship' shitstorm a whilst back (UoY) and well...Ive never actually met any of the 'radical authoritarian left' students you guys seems to be so hell bent on denouncing. Milo was meant to ( I don't...

    Poll: There are only 2 genders....right?

    And there was me thinking that we'd gotten past this 'Sex=Gender' thing a while back.

    GTA V: Satire or Parody

    I would say it's simply a parody of Americana and the media presentation of America. Badly done, but still. I think it dones't qualify as a satire as it 1) has no valid points to make, or any suggestions of betterment, and 2) never champions any particular group in any of its scenes. The...

    Poll: When did you start to call yourself a gamer?

    I don't and I never have. Dislike the term, dislike the general use of said term (and not just because of the whole GG debacle)

    40k: Anti-Tau Riptide Tactics? Is there even one?

    Best way i've dealt with them (as a crons player, so those ap3 pieplates hurt) is to simply wreck the pathfinder squads (or whatever's providing the markerlights) as a first priority, and after that they become a lot less damaging. Still hard to kill, but the absurd amounts of points needed to...

    Legend of Korra S4E9 discussion

    Yeah, continuing in the political themeing of the villains of Korra, Kuvira is pretty much a fascist, what with the prison camps for non-earthbenders and obsession with national unity and control under one central figure. I thought episode was a little bit tedious, they could have handled the...

    Never Heard That Before

    My name is absurdly phonetically similar to a certain internationally famous boy-wizard. People finding out my name is not a fun occasion. I honestly think the most spoken words to me are "YOU'RE A ****** HARRY"/"You mean like, Harry Potter?!"

    Asexuality

    I think one of the reasons people still have awareness weeks and flags and stuff is due to opinions like a some in this thread, in that people tend to just think "no, you're being special and pretentious stop" not that I agree with either the flags or the douchiness. I don't really like using...

    Poll: 'Best' Revolution?

    I forgot to put my one in the OP, silly old me. Anyways, I'd say the French was the most influential, in that though it was ultimately short-lived, it really did set the record for how Europe would turn out, and gave rise to possibly the most astounding man in history, who took a battered and...

    Poll: 'Best' Revolution?

    A small idea that popped in my head, that the term revolution has been used a fair bit recently to denote things that...aren't particularly revolutionary. So, we be kicking this old school, in your opinion, which revolution had the largest impact on the world as a whole (or the countries that...

    Demonization of Moviebob and other Escapist Staff

    I utterly love the way that this shit's gone full circle, with people going from complaining that their voices were unheard in the media and that they didn't get enough recognition/validation of their views from the "Gaming Press" (which is such a shitty term I don't even know why I used it) to...

    Where would you have a WW2 game take place?

    Flying Tigers in mainland China would be great, if you can mix in ariel combat with beautiful level design. Otherwise I reckon a game with tons of short campaigns, each giving the player a small overview of the war in 3-5 levels, for example play as a Polish soldier on the border and have it a...

    REPORT: Hideo Kojima Promises Skeletons in Silent Hills

    Sometimes these skeleton jokes really do lighten up my day. Thank you Taco, probably the 1st of your fake news stories that I've actually laughed at. Goddamn I love skeletons.
