    eSports Legitimacy and Blizzard's Heroes of the Dorm

    Ah. I did not realize that this was already a thing. And those are all valid points I had not really considered. I always figured the winnings would eventually go toward future education or investments, but having some set allotted specifically for education is not that bad a thing. Thank you...

    eSports Legitimacy and Blizzard's Heroes of the Dorm

    I was watching a stream of Blizzard's Pax East Panel for the new Hearthstone Adventure (Blackrock Mountain hype!) and along the way they also had announcements for Overwatch, Heroes of the Storm, etc. One of their announcements regarding HotS and eSports was an event they are launching called...

    Dragons Dogma to receive a f2p sequel.

    Nothing says quality product and artistic integrity like releasing a relatively new video game IP with a F2P price model sequel. Captcha: stay safe. I will! Thank you for looking out for me, Captcha!

    It's been a while

    Ah. I see. Well, thank you for putting a foot back into the Escapist forum door and promptly putting said foot into your mouth. This is old news and the mods have already closed threads about this. We've either accepted this, already left the forums, or don't care. Have a good day.

    Heroes of The Storm's Pricing Structure is Unacceptable. Here's How to Fix it

    Yeah you raise a good point. The only distinction I can see between this and a news article is that it's posted in Featured Content instead of the News Room. Its presence on the front page does not reflect this.

    Best mounts in games

    It is by no means a good mount, but in Stormpeaks in Northrend in WoW, there is a quest chain that requires you to fly around from the south by a goblin camp up the peaks to enter a cave. However you cannot fly when you initially level a toon through Northrend. In order to do this, you need to...

    Describe your city/town in two words

    My home town of North Haven, Connecticut: wannabe Italians I don't know the city of Worcester, MA well despite attending college here the last four years since I don't wander far from campus. It's scary out there :S I can say this much about Worcester though: Not Lowell.

    How old is too old to be a gamer?

    You become too old to play games when you die, because any younger than when you died you are capable of playing video games provided you are still physically able to move.

    Overkill (It With Fire)

    Back in my Boy Scouts days, I used to know a guy at summer camp who would kill moths with a makeshift flamethrower using a lighter and an Axe spray can when they would get in the way of us playing cards. Looking back I'm kind of amazed he never accidentally lit the table, cards, or canopy on...

    Lagency

    As someone with a ghetto computer, a steady 25 fps isn't that bad and eventually you become acclimated to the very slight input lag. I feel that bit of info doesn't seem to be brought up very often in PC gaming fps discussions. I actually find significantly faster fps gives me a headache since...

    What's Your Current Favorite Song?

    Despite going on a Tool kick for the last few weeks, my favorite song is still probably Forty Days by Streetlight Manifesto.

    That one part of Geek culture you never got into

    Tabletop gaming. It seems like something I could learn to like but I've never had a like minded group to get me started. There is a gaming group on campus but I only learned about them fairly recently, they're a pretty tight group, and it's my last year so fuck it. Some other time maybe.

    Miracle of Sound Leaving

    There is already a thread about this. Little slow on the draw I'm afraid.

    Removing an account

    There was another thread about this recently somewhere. The short answer is that there's no way to "delete" an account. Your options are just go away quietly, go through all of your posts and remove the text and scrub your account of information/links, or go out with a bang and earn a permaban.
