The Kwanzaa Bot is here to protect me.



Spongebob premiered in May of 1999. I reject it from the '90s Kids Squids canon.

I guess this was inevitable after the deluge of Spongebob memes that pervaded Splatoon's early months.

I think India(?) is a good choice for a civ because their special unit is Workers and Workers never stop being useful. If you're going for a violent take over of the world I don't have much advice, I'm a peace not war kinda guy but I'm pretty sure the German tanks are powerful if that's your bag. Disclaimer: I am not good at Civilization games.

I come back to it every couple months and enjoy it for a week or so until I get grouped up in a lobby full of level 50 japanese players and half my shots don't register and I spontaneously combust when an enemy so much as looks in my direction, then I ragequit for a couple months until I forget why I got so mad at videogames.

workers can keep building developments forever so it's good to have a spare hanging out, but lone workers can be kidnapped by any random enemy that passes by. so make an army dude first!

Around 80% of players I've run across in Dark Souls III are cosplaying as Guts from Berserk. I guess I'm okay with that

I'm currently banging my head against this real mean boss, and it's made all the worst by the horrible run-up to their arena: poo poo's hard

Just want to add dark souls 3 is great, when you get the bugs worked out. Only down side is, out of 4 people who played it, 1 continued. They all say the first boss is impossible and give up after 3 tries.

They are wusses.

Thanks for the heads up, combat in the first game was terri-bad and they should have never had any to begin with. Side missions? :wtf:
It's an open-world game now, so it has side missions. And tower climbing.



Why is everyone someone's girlfriend or fiancee?

They also do not understand proper usage of the word "waifu" apparently.




But it only took God six days?

I am glad DS3 is so fun because the gameplay footage for open world Mirror's Edge is such a bummer I need something to bring my spirits up. They lifted all the terrible over-done ideas from Ubisoft Oatmeal like map icon collectathons, fetch quests, visual wizard pathing for morons, and boring sludge NPC voice over.

Could it have killed them to do more tightly designed levels, creative mission design (like maybe jumping around dynamic environments?), and improved the core parkour gameplay and combat and had an actual writer take a crack at the story? Apparently.


On first glance I thought it was a mech with potato Jesus head. On second glance now I really don't know what it is.

sprites are 2d and models are 3d

why you gotta use a technical term when there's a whole lot of generalised terms in the english language for look and feel?

Morning games chat.

I played more Dark Souls 3 and set a cathedral on fire. The old lady inside seemed alright with it at least.

In Training posted:

You have to side missions to gain xp and fill out Faith's skill tree to give her more traversal and combat options. And now they have more combat with dudes with little floating health bars. Sigh
That sounds awful. I like skill trees and stuff like that but it doesn't mesh with platformers like Mirror's Edge.

Whoops, you're totally right. Old habits creeping into my drunk posting. Someone should not mod FF6 so that only the playable characters have the sprites from the iOS remake.

Yeah, there was a four player one called something like "All For One" where Capt. Quark was playable. I never played it but it was a PS+ title back in the day.
