For more than a decade, I never knew there was an "uncut version" of AoE2 intro.

If your class was Classics then you might actually be able to make a valid argument for that with Age of Mythology, that had a great encyclopedia. hubris.height posted:in elementary school I brought my snes in my back pack with the rented copy of chrono trigger so my mom wouldn't be able to find it and take it back to blockbuster Why did you bring the SNES as well?

I'm beginning to fear that I'm one of those people everyone loves to catch on audio/video, those people who get Mad At Video Games in a PvP game more complicated than TF2 Luckily I'm too meek to ACTUALLY lose my poo poo, but goddamn Hearthstone, LoL, etc. are making me want to rage like a manchild for how little I'm learning on how to play them

Maybe you'll be Youtube famous! Seriously though, just step away from the game breathe slow and then go back to it. If you feel it coming back, just put the game away and do something else for a bit. You'll come back with a fresh perspective

Fistful of Frags is my go to game when I want to chill and just blast virtual people. I'm on a tactical shooter bender where the only other multiplayer game I really play are Insurgency and Red Orchestra 2/Rising Storm so its a good thing to get away from always needing to contribute to the team. edit: you will die from getting shot in the back alot, but that was how most wild west gunslingers died anyway.

I have legit had some rage issues with games ever since playing the first Trauma Center. I got as far as the final epilogue level with the dual spider viruses, but after two weeks of attempts that level broke something in me, and I almost broke my DS in response. Now I can actually Get Mad At Videogames despite myself but it helps a lot if I don't have access to voice chat. Basically, gently caress Trauma Center with a length of rusty barbed wire. re: Recording stuff, I use Open Broadcaster Software; it can stream to livestream or twitch, record locally, or use a recording buffer which is my new favourite. I've also gotten a good ways into Alien Isolation and I'll admit it looks snazzy, it's well optimized, but it gets off to a slooooow start and even once it's in full swing, every time it's almost completed the feeling of immersion it trips and faceplants itself. examples: 1. Alien's AI stops responding. It just stands silent and motionless... directly outside of the dead-end room I'm hiding in. Upon seeing me, it of course springs to life and eats me. 2. "Lean back and hold your breath" QTE in the lockers result in me getting eaten 3 out of 5 times anyway, after the alien has turned around and started to wander elsewhere. It just suddenly teleports back and tears the door off as soon as I breathe. 3. Alien always looks when I'm hiding under a table. Always. Doesn't matter if it was 3 rooms away at the time, still knows exactly where I am. Why are you even allowed to hide under tables. 3. Hide in locker. Alien passes by locker, leaves. Exit locker. Alien sprints back towards the room. Hide in locker. Alien passes by locker, leaves. Exit locker. Alien sprints back towards the room. Hide in locker... 4. Two full levels where the hostile human AI bugged out and stood motionless, barking their usual idle lines. Did not react even to seeing me. Multiple obvious cues where the Alien should probably have spawned, but it was completely absent for those two levels. I'm barely up to where you get the flamethrower and I'm just so tired of it. My only reprieve from the wallhacking, godmoding, teleporting AI is when it just up and utterly breaks.

That one final mission where you have to use your time slowing ability twice pissed me off because I had used it earlier so I still lost. I returned the game to Gamefly a day or so later. Game wasn't as fun as I thought it would be.

What difficulty are you playing? I only noticed 2 minor bugs while playing the game and none of them had to do with the Alien so I don't know what happened there. Note that if it can't find you but knows you are there somewhere he'll sometimes 'sniff' the air but that's a clear animation. The AI 'learns' your habit so if you've been hiding under tables a lot he'll start looking there first thing. A pro active stealth strategy works a lot better than cowering in lockers, use your flares and noisemakers if he won't leave and keep moving if possible. Don't get me wrong, it's fairly hard as far as games go, but I think the game was very fair to me on normal difficulty at least.

GTA V was the last game I got legitimately mad over. Both still sit unfinished on my shelf. I really need to sell them.

Buck Turgidson posted:How did those games make you mad? Both were unfun slogs but each had that spark that tipped me over the edge. For Other M it was first a part where I had to find a tiny spot in a bush to progress the game further and the final straw was a boss fight that required me to shoot it with a missile (not an easy task to remember in Other M). I fought that thing for like thirty minutes until I slammed my controller down and shattered it. When I saw a strategy video hit it once with a missile and watch it run away I gave up. GTA V was a glitchly mess and reminded me how much I hated the GTA series.

GTA V is glitchy? I've beaten that game like twice on 360 and I'm currently going through it on ps4 and haven't had a single issue that i can remember? Certainly not even close to enough to make me quit.

latest news from the dwarf fortress: - a baby transformed into a Warlock spy. Fortunately he was still a baby and got his arms chopped off by a miner - a baby transformed into a werewolf. he was still a baby but unfortunately strong as gently caress, gem and stonecraft workshops destroyed, bit through a drakes head like a banana - automaton, goblin, drow and succubus assassins ambushed lots of people, victims were holding babies; lots of battle scarred tots - more children than grown up dwarves - therapist went insane, tore off clothes

Throwing a ragefit because when you try and make a game glitch it happens easily is pretty childish.

The game was fun, but not fun enough to do the torture sequence three loving times.  Oh and GTA Online was not fun the two months I tried to play it with my buddies. Of course that had to do with the fact that Online had nothing to do the first six months but w/e, I'm sticking to Saints Row now.

Whenever something mildly inconveniences me I smash the hell out of something in frustration. I crossed the rubicon and smashed something when I wasn't mildly inconvenienced and it's the only way I can communicate now. It's the only way I can feel.

To be fair, I was moving between apartments at the time so there might have been a glitch-up with an auto-save or something but regardless, by the time I finished the torture sequence for the third time I had no desire to continue playing as the three dirtbags.
