i am too much like Niles Crane to buy weed directly, and the friends I used to buy from on occasion are not people I really hang around with anymore, whereas booze I can buy at a liquor store.

This seem like those awful episodes on sci-fi series when someone decides that they should discuss serious real life matters. Like that babylon 5 episode about work rights.

I think Star Trek Voyager was the worst offender from what I remember with all those holodeck episodes.

can't you legally buy it in some states now and get a medical card in most others? just do that. or just find someone who will sell you weed its not like you're buying smack or anything.

I watched all the Star Treks last year after Leonard Nimoy was cool to work with and I thought "maybe I should actually watch these" and Voyager is unquestionably the worst. Most of its creators should be held accountable for some kind of horrible crime.

Mr. Green from Clue was an evil computer clown in one of the episodes and Brad Dourif was in some, being Brad Dourif. That's about all I can say good about it.

Video games need more Brad Dourif, as he is only in one.

When I was a kid, Generations and Voyager were the only Star Treks I knew of, so in my mind the franchise was hot steaming garbage.

I enjoy watching each and every Brad Dourif freak-out, from his appearances in Deadwood and Lord of the Rings to his moments in things like Once Upon a Time and Star Trek: The Really Bad One, but the way they let him chew the scenery in Myst 3 is maybe his best.

ah ok, well if you can get one cheap they are absolutely elementary to get playing proper games off the SD card, which was good because the game cards were behind the loving battery on the first one.

DS9 was around. It's the best one.

But it also had some lovely episodes too like when Captain Sisko was a sci-fi writer in the 50's because the bad guys wanted him to think that, or something.

Hey Games forum I got bored with Pillars of Eternity and I need something else, what's new and good and single-player for PC/3DS/Wii U? Throw game names at me. What are you playing that I should play?

Not picky about genre atm, just spitball at me until something sticks. This is brainstorming. There are no bad ideas.

Are the last-gen versions of this gimped? Only other game I've tried that had both nextgen and last-gen versions was Shadow of Mordor and the 360 version was broken as gently caress.

it is entertaining partly because of how gothy it is. you can find ancient magical nose rings and one of the player classes wears a red vest and highlights at all times. but it is also pretty solid and i had fun playing through it to the end, so i do recommend it


also hell yes alien rage is worth four bucks

e: if you comment on the forums then bloodlust's developer, whose name is apparently bill, will friend you on steam and ask you if you like the game. bill is the best.
