Sillybones: Aug 10, 2013; go away,
spooky skeleton,
go away

I tried to make joke where I spent my life obsessively archiving some game from the past that I played as a kid. The issue is the reality of Ben is more sad than any fiction I could make up. CR should go to gaol simply for what he has done to the Lesnik.

Ben is fat for a world's view. For an american's pov he can still last at least 5 years.

He hasn't even started using a rascal to get around yet, I'd say he has another 7 years plus or minus another 100 pounds

Ben is fat and you shouldn't laugh about it. 50% of US population is like him ; I'll still bang the prositutes there because they are cheaper and I like the chubby stance.

If it wasn't for CR, Lesnick would be blind :colbert:

I'm obsessed about the 7th Guest series. I've amassed over 48,000 hours of playtime across all three games (yes, three! I got a hold of a very early prototype version of The 7th Guest Part III: The Collector). I even own the CD-i port, including original packaging and all manuals (did you know the CD-i version came with a different scene when Martine Burden and Edward Knox get together? It was deemed "too intense" for release on that console).

I happily backed the 4 or 5 or 6 failed Kickstarters and play the 7th Guest: The Board Game with all my friends when they come over.

Rob Landeros is one of the best and brightest visionaries the computer gaming and graphics world has ever seen. I'd happily back him for thousands because I know we'd get the same (if not better!) quality PC games got back in the 90s. It's shame others can't see his vision or try and detract from his amazing works by tweeting about his alleged past with underage boys.

Honestly I can't fault Ben his Wing Commander obsession, since I LOVED those games as a pre-teen. Possibly because I only ever played it at friends houses.

Anyways I discovered Larry Niven and lost all interest in Chris's less interesting knockoff. That's my story.

That is the character being weighted for bending, and as someone who does this kind of thing myself wow that is really high poly for a video game asset, especially MMO.

That picture shows them adding vertex weighting for animations, which is one of the later steps.

Looks like the intro for the Six Million Dollar Man.

Or in this case, the Two Hundred Million Buffoon.

Gentlemen, we can refactor him. We have the technology. We have the capability to make the world's greatest crowdfunding clusterfuck. Chris Roberts will be that man. Better than he was before. Better...slimier...duller.

This is clearly the cutscene-only, hero model. The in-game models are much more reasonable, because there are potentially thousands of npc's in any single area. Ya dink.

One of the first things I gather from my limited experience in software development, especially for CIG's game, is that in Agile development, you design the UI first so that you know what to program for.
