Re: Sci fi and love

Gonna throw my 2 cents in on "The Expanse." The show takes some liberties with a lot of things, but goddamn if it isn't true to the books, which I absolutely love. Anyone remember how close the first season of GoT was to the books? It's better than that. I just pray they don't dilute it by...

Re: Is anyone actually enjoying No Man's Sky?

Honestly, having played and refunded it, it seems like exactly what FC would avoid in designing a game. Its core gameplay loop is boring and barely changes at all throughout the game. It doesn't have any depth to it at all. The game they marketed is not the same one they are selling and that alone b...

Re: Buying Steam Games Outside of Steam Store

I've been burned with G2A more than I've had success. Always be wary of outside sellers. I'll only buy keys from outside sellers if the price is chump change compared to the steam price, otherwise I'll wait and pray for a real sale.

Re: The BTSM/BTW divide

I love BTW, and I very much enjoy BTSM, but they aren't quite on the same level. What I enjoy in pretty much everything is a highly complex environment, but that complexity should be from the interaction between multiple different things. In BTW I can enjoy a survival experience while developing the...

Re: BTW wont start Using MCPatcher 4.3.2

I believe what he actually is referring to is the fact that since the old launcher lost support recently there actually is no mcpatcher version that is compatible with 1.5.2 anymore since the directory system changed with the newer launcher.

Alternatively, if your a crazy bastard like myself you could use Noir's old tileable design which is about 30x more resource expensive than necessary and reiterate it 64 times. Noir was equal parts impressed and horrified at my wastefulness of resources.
