    Too much hand holding in today's games?

    Depends on what game you get. The big blockbuster games, yes they have the hand holding mentality. Other games such as dwarf fortress, or Paradox interactive games are targetted at a more mature audience and have more complex game mechanics

    You people are ridiculous

    Rare to see a properly posted OP for EA. 8/10, the analogy let you down seeing as fast food is different from IT projects. The day1 DLC would've been planned, not an afterthought. How many IT projects are under time? Nearly none, especially in the western world. Apart from that, nice to see...

    "For privacy, Origin is the same as Steam" WRONG!!! -Updated

    Origin grabs more than software and hardware details? Damn I guess it also grabs your eyes as well!!!! :O Don't spew false information. No they can't have you arressted for copyright infringement. The reading of tax files was only in Germany and I don't know the full details of that, and by the...

    "For privacy, Origin is the same as Steam" WRONG!!! -Updated

    It's quite easy to see what files Origin is accessing, Run a process explorer, filter to only origin.exe and everything origin accesses you can see. As for setting the precendent on sending your information, Apple already sends information off to 3rd party people and you have no opt out...

    I don't understand griefing

    Because it's fun? I've been doing that C4 bug in BF3 where you switch teams and detonate the C4. So much fun to be had watching everyone calling hax and raging xD

    Games you consider overrated

    Final fantasy for me. Just don't find JRPGs interesting

    Games that were Almost Great

    Battlestations pacific. Only thing holding it back was shocking UI and poor support from the devs/publishers. The gameplay was truly epic

    why is Origin= Bad...Steam =Good?

    For me it's the privacy issues. I kinda like Origin at least in terms of looks. If it didn't constantly send my details to some arbritary database I wouldn't mind giving it a decent go

    What do you think is the best sub-genre of metal?

    Melodeath hands down. Metalcore is the same trash over and over again.

    EA now issuing permanent Origin bans through content filter

    Bring this shit up with whoever is the consumer protection agency in your country. EA have to take penalties for seriously inconveniancing you. If this ever happened in any other industry the company suffers fines or official warnings. Do not let this pass unnoticed by consumer watchdogs

    Do you feel like your posts are insignificant?

    Wrong. I go on paradox interactive forums and since the amount of posters is around 50 (for OT) then you get to know most of the people there

    Do you feel like your posts are insignificant?

    Escapist is one of the most generic forums on the net. Of course it doesn't matter because within a few weeks the same ridiculous threads will be repeated (would you do X if Y happened, what would you do in X situation, you have X amount of time left choose Y from this list, what is your...

    Recommend me a good RTS.

    It's brutal for noobs though. Something like Company of heroes is easier than your traditional RTS, or you can try starcraft 2 which has better matchmaking (CoH is dieing). SC2 is good because of the massive amount of content out there that will make you improve, not to mention coaching and...

    Online because retail is a joke Steam with a US proxy or ozgameshop.com
