makes you wonder why they didn't have moustaches to begin with

I'm kinda curious about Tomb Raider too. I was more interested in it when it was still supposed to be a grim-gritty survival game instead of "Uncharted feat. Lara Croft", but it might still be worth picking up from a bargain bin or Steam sale. So how's the story and gameplay? I've heard th...

That's how I felt about it for the first 2 hours or so. After that, the general shittiness got too obvious to ignore. Game mechanics, graphics, story, it's all shit.

Multiplayer is okayish, but there's significantly better stuff out there.

So, GOG finally got System Shock 2.

Time for a replay.

In a way, I don't really miss the ability to sell my games on Steam, since most of the time I only paid 5-25e for each. That's in the same ballpark, if not better, than what I would've paid for that stuff in a brick and mortar store anyway (factoring in trade-ins and buying used). Except of course t...

Anyone given Dead Space 3 a go? Is the co-op any good?

At least yesterday there was some kind of a general balls-up regarding the EU client in Steam. Apparently Europeans got the US client instead of the EU one, and an EU account won't work with a US client.

Anyone given Planetside 2 a go yet?

Dishonored is pretty damn good. Gives you a broad scope of choices - not just "murder v stealth" but a variety of ways to accomplish either of those. Yeah. The tutorial mission wasn't all that hot, but once I got to the first proper mission... Amazing. Plenty of alternate routes, some dep...

Picked up Dishonored. About an hour in, and so far so good.

Finished Dark Souls some time ago. Bought it at release, but for some reason didn't play it very far for a long time. Maybe because it's kinda challenging at first. Anyway, once I got into it properly, it was eleven shades of awesome. The difficulty is just right, the game mechanics are good, and th...

Yeah. The thing is, Sororitas is about the only organization where the Imperium's exalted demands of piety are actually met. Furthermore, typically only the higher ranking proven veterans are allowed any contact with outsiders at all. So the hypothetical one-in-a-million low-ranking problem child is...

Hey Karza, shotguns still require a BS check, right? This book isn't the easiest to navigate. Yeah. The scatter special quality just means that at point-blank range, every two degrees of success on the test means an extra hit on the target. Also at long or extreme range armor points are doubled aga...

Background time: Marcus hails from house Haas, which is based somewhere in the Malfian subsector. The family has a tradition of putting its sons and daughters through imperial service of some sort, as a means of acquiring the skills and contacts necessary for whatever position the family has planned...

Okay, I'll put this here to avoid cluttering the main game thread. Chloe snuffs out the ashen husk of her last lho-stick on the side of the shuttle and flicks the remains away into the wind. She pulls her Sororitas vestments tight around her and shivers slightly, attempting to suppress the involunta...

"What sort of settlements do the locals live in? Ten-person prospector outposts, ten thousand person shantytowns, or what?" "Also, the rest of us can pass as bodyguards and assorted hangers-on, but what about Alaric? This doesn't look like the kind of place where tech-priests are a co...

"Well, what is it? I really hope we're not here just to guard a scrap metal shipment."

First things first: I take a swig from my hip flask to keep the cold at bay. Then it's time to go make sure the gearhead doesn't screw up the introductions.

he don't have a straight angle in that whole god-damned synagogue

he is the worst damn carpenter.

In permanent full-time jobs most people prefer to take the time off from work. I don't think taking them as money is common anywhere outside of temp agencies and such.

Young. All my previous jobs have been temporary stuff (summerjobs and whatnot), where the few vacation days you accumulate are just paid away once the job is over.

4-week summer vacation starts right about now.

In fact, this my very first paid vacation ever. Feels amazing.

I've been mostly willing to give Thanas the benefit of the doubt in the previous dustups about SDN modding, but that Shep thread... Jesus fuck he's going full retard there.

better knock that vendetta shit off, frod

uh oh
