Were they just that tired of this thread nitpicking on their pictures they turned the lights off to obscure everything?

But seriously that's loving awful, and just in general not good for you.

Ben gif is hypnotic, also Ben I hope you see this; but I wish I had hair as nice as yours, loose some loving weight and you'd be not half bad looking

And when was that 'office' picture taken... usually you can at least see daylight seeping through the windows , in this one its like everything is shuttered up tight.

God it must be soul sucking to work in that place

I know where I work they won't let you do that poo poo because it's a huge liability if someone trips and falls and gets hurt because they can't see where they're going. If someone breaks both their wrists, then the company can't do anything for 4 weeks.

Star Citizen doesn't need VR because the development itself is "virtual" reality.

maybe for one second you can pause; try to step into another person's perspective, and understand that a watermelon is cursing me



Cymelion you dumbshit all you're doing is moving the deckchairs. Just like old school WoW you would still have to grind your way to end-game because once people have farmed that resist gear to pass certain bosses they will no longer want to do those bosses, and you have to reward them for doing those bosses with, obviously, gear necessary for the next set of bosses. It's still the same content gate! All you've done is bloat out the rewardless farming stage of end-game and removed the miniature rewards of levelling that they use to get you hooked in the first place! You'd still have have grind your way up to everyone else because that's fundamentally how reward systems work, you goddamn game development understanding jackass.

Also, fyi, there's already an MMO doing well that doesn't have a character level system and relies only on your equipment choices and the effort you put into gear.



It's Elite Dangerous.

I mean, he must realize he's a living caricature right?

Reminds me of that simpsons episode where Bart has a catch phrase that earns him all sorts of attention, then he realizes everyone only cares about him if he recites the catch phrase

People only care about Ben when he's being a big fat jolly idiot
