    Dungeons & Dragons Next Reveals Mass Combat System Details

    Clearly most of the posters here haven't been following the development: D&D Next has done away with Fort, Ref, and Will. Saves are just rolls against your ability scores now. Skills have had a similar treatment ? it's part of a general plan to make the ability scores into a prominent part of...

    The Last Of Us Is Being Made Into a Movie

    I don't see what the problem is? Like it or not, movies currently have a much larger audience than video games do: escaping a "game stigma" has nothing to do with wanting to bring your story to a wider audience. Naughty Dog will undoubtedly get a great buck out of it, which they can use to...

    Gay in The Last of Us: Left Behind (SPOILERS)

    I love how many people are leaping forward to say "She's not gay! She's just experimenting! There's no confirmation!" They goddamn kissed. How many of you would be doubting Ellie's straightness if Riley were a boy?

    free will

    I wish I had free will. The price of will at all my local stores is extortionate.

    Poll: Would you take a pill that makes you bisexual?

    Yes, for the same reasons the OP states: gender just seems such a silly thing for my brain to insist on picking partners by.

    a question i have for both gay people and homophobes?

    Instincts (other than tribalism and "fear of the unknown") are unlikely to come into it. Homophobia is a characteristic of modern Western / Asian / Middle Eastern society. Many cultures from other parts of the world aren't homophobic, or weren't before being Westernized. The ancient world wasn't...

    a question i have for both gay people and homophobes?

    I assume OP is a fit straight white able-bodied non-transgendered man from a relatively secure economic class (wow that's a mouthful), so he doesn't have first-hand experience with this kind of life. (I'm all of those categories too, but I've spoken a lot with people who aren't, so.) "Not...

    Would you support a cure for homosexuality and transexualism?

    What's there to cure? Neither homosexuality nor transgenderism is harmful in any way (unlike society's reaction to those things ...). And there is no suggestion that they are biologically abnormal (as if that would even matter) -- indeed, the high frequency of homosexuality in nature seems to...

    Unskippable: Hyperdimension Neptunia Victory, Part 1

    I dunno about anyone else, but I don't watch Unskippable for the action and art quality. :P If you reckon you can make the rest of the dialogue funny, go for it.

    Why Am I A Bad Person For Like Large Breasts And Sexy Nuns?

    You're not a bad person for liking large breasts and sexy nuns. You are a bad person if you think it's fine and dandy that there's such a strong expectation in society (and especially in nerd/gamer society) that women are obligated to be physically attractive to you. I'm definitely not saying...

    Poll: Which is tougher: iron or steel?

    I knoooooooow. Such a disappointment. :( [Props to OP for a clever title though.]

    Natural Selection 2 Adds Female Marines

    Should've happened a hell of a lot sooner. Still not necessarily an ideal approach. But damn is this good to hear.

    Poll: Do you support evolution?

    :S Not butthurt or intentionally militant, just confused. I'm living pretty happily and consistently as an atheist so far, and I genuinely don't understand your reasoning behind "practical issues". Could you elaborate? I admit I've never really wrapped my head around this whole concept of...

    Poll: Is grinding with another person of the opposite sex considered cheating?

    Oh, I went into this thread thinking you mean "grinding" as in "working for levels in an RPG". Well, being asexual, I never really think about this sort of thing so I don't think I can help. But my captcha is "treat yo self". Maybe that's useful advice? I dunno.

    Poll: Do you support evolution?

    No, I don't support evolution. I pirate it.
