    So the recent controversy about Channel Awesome mismanagement

    "Recent", this shit has been out there for years (I remember reading out the experiences of the extras on the desert movie and they were all identical: Doug and Rob are terrible, Spoony has legitimate mental problems, Linkara is a sperg and Mike Michaud is evil).

    Advice on how to solve a hypothetical situation

    Welcome to adulthood where sometimes you have to realize that your family are kinda shitty people, ultimately you have to do what is right for you (and then deal with the aftermath afterwards).

    Worldbuilding in RPGs

    I start with gameplay mechanics (is there magic, what's their level of technology) then races, then world map, then alliances betwixt the races, then story.

    What do you want out of a Fantasy Setting?

    Ok here's my formula... +1 for gravitas. Regardless of the context of your story and how interesting or rote it is, if you get characters that can emote or act properly I'm willing to overlook some of the cliches. +1 if it has either lots or almost no magic, setting with moderate magic (at...

    Who Would You Recommend If I Want To See Let's Play Videos?

    Chip Cheezum and General Ironicus are the best let's players available, offering up a solid mix of facts, displays of skill, and comedy. If you want to get a bit meta there's always Retsupurae helmed by Slowbeef and Diabetes who basically just take the piss of other let's plays.

    How is Uncharted 3?

    I'm playing through the trilogy right now, and the third is easily my favorite. At least for me the first was really difficult, the 2nd had infrequent difficulty spikes mostly in it's level design and conveyance, but this one feels a lot more arcadey (the action is faster and more forgiving, and...

    Whats so great about Nintendo games?

    So here's the thing Nintendo kinda made video games as a whole what they are back in the 90's. There's a reason people still say Ocarina of Time, Mario 64, Super Metroid, and Mario World are some of the best games of all time, basically as time has progressed they've taken to making their games...

    So, I've finally given Bioshock Infinite a chance. [SPOILERS]

    Yeah I didn't like Infinite either but then again the entire Bioshock series is just really meh to me. Now System Shock though that's a different story.

    Things you like in video games others might find weird

    You need to look up Interstellar Marines for PC, it's still in early access BUT it has the best visor / rain I've ever seen.

    A Cry for Help (TableTop RPG Race Ideas)

    Okay so I'm most of the way through my passion project's development (tabletop RPG), and your input was very helpful last time (should every race be able to be any class) so I'm asking you people of the escapist do you have any neat ideas for strange or unusual rpg races that you'd be willing to...

    Poll: Do you think any race should be able to be any class?

    Alright so since everyone (mods, people, me) have disregarded the call for a lock, I might as well post my decision. After much consideration I decided to make it so that the starting classes change depending on where your character originates from (so there's like 7 or 8 different version of...

    Poll: Do you think any race should be able to be any class?

    Alright I think I've got the input I need (since the yes option is almost double what the no option is right now), thank you all for your participation, mods please lock this thread we're done here.

    Poll: Do you think any race should be able to be any class?

    So I suppose at this point I should offer some context. I've been making a Table Top RPG from scratch and originally I was going to have 4 classes per race with each class being tailored to that race. But a lot of people who I talked with expressed interest in playing non-standard race class...

    Poll: Do you think any race should be able to be any class?

    So far I'm seeing two dominate opinions: 1 - Any race should be able to be any class BUT they should perform said class in a way that makes sense for their race (tweak all classes to fit each possible permutation). 2 - No, some classes should be off limits for some races BUT only when they are...
