Atlantis so much more than Savitar (which I had used for many years, and I'm slow to change what I'm used to using), things that make it even more handy I'm always eager to learn.
I wouldn't have even tried to set up the limited spawn use I did if I didn't have Atlantis; it was completely opaque if if was even possible in Savitar.
This makes me sad because Savitar is such a cool name.

The Witcher 3 was probably the best game that's come out the last 2-3 years, as far as I'm concerned. It's so good, and it's enormous, you can play forever. It's a true successor to Skyrim in that way.
It's better than Skyrim; it has decent voice acting and controls.
I'm still playing it, but I think I'm going to take a bit of a break. The world is so vast that I kind of forget I'm supposed to be doggedly chasing someone down.
Yes. Exactly.

I'm taking a break because it's so huge. At first, rising in level seems a chore and super slow--now, I'm struggling to complete quests five levels below mine because I sidequested some shit way over my head and managed to do it anyway, so I skyrocketed in level and I'm like--shit! My quests are going to grey!
Those twin wyverns and the Royal Wyvern right after in Velen? I ganked those things when I was like ten levels under them--by splitting them up and judicious use of Quen. Buuuuut that pushed my level so high noqw I'm struggling.
Worth it for the satisfaction, though.

@Miss-Demeanor But he's deeeeeaaaaaad!
He's not dead in the continuity where Shadow and Blythe have little tiny ninja-politicians that Dawson pimps out with magic. I'm just sayin'.

A game with terrible controls?
Not really my thing.
This old argument again?
I get it: Witcher 1 sucked ass. But Witcher 3 has good controls and is pretty amazing in scope and story, so.

If any of you care, Vinyl was decent. Didn't need a 2 hour pilot, that was too much, but I am optimistic for the regular 1 hour format. Music! Arguments! People playing awkward versions of Robert Plant!
Perhaps most importantly, it was almost two real hours, not two commercially broken hours. I think it was like 1:52, which is lonnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnng. I'm saving it for a weekend or something.
I watched 11.22.63, though, and it was pretty good. Also a two hour premier, but this one was 1:20 (i.e. two 40 minute episodes). But it was seamless. My only complaint?
Not enough Sarah Gadon.
Which is dumb, because at the level Paradox operates, they aren't an income source, they're almost... like... advertisement.

Sailors and Strumpets.
Jennys and Jakes.
Charm and Courage.
Bodice Ripping and Bloodshed.So, you want a game based in the world of The Witcher. I concur.
I haven't finished Witcher 3, but yeaaaaaaah.

I will second this.
There are very few movies that I've been looking forward to for over a year that I don't walk out disappointed in some way. Deadpool was not one of those. I was thoroughly satisfied with this movie. (I saw it three times, so.)
Damn, I need to go for my second viewing. I'm gonna see if I can rope my co-worker into it; if not, I might just go alone. Fuck it.
Lack of a system is probably part of it. But also, just... it's Mortal Kombat. It doesn't immediately strike out as RP-able, even if it is. That said, back in my MSN Chat days, I saw my share of Scorpions and Sub-Zeros.

I just look the most impressive because I post the most here out of any of the staffers.
Wait wait. How do I get to look impressive?
You don't. @Roz is a fame glutton.
What if the vote was for who should die and you all just voted for your favorites? There's a reason the walkers weren't on there--they're already dead.
!!!
I just want to be able to grab, like, I don't know, Jack@Reno and bring him to BITN as a Big Bad for some plot I run.
And then when he's being lit the fuck on fire and beheaded, he can stumble around aflame with half his head off, yelling 'bout "oh, duckies, you're so violent" and singing Grease songs.
Because why the fuck wouldn't I want that sort of insane shit? That's my jam.
Hell, if I brought any of my monster characters around for BITN I would hope they die in the most spectacular fashion.

@Arkandel You mean... My hunters would get the chance to stake some old, witchcraft-using priest that's pretending to be a servant of the Lord?!
I like it.
And, seriously, I do like it. Obviously players would be able to create their own monsters, but I'd be more than happy to collect some old PCs and run them as NPCs, or to help a player run their past PC as an NPC. It sounds like a very fun idea.
This is giving me ideas.
Another thing that was fun on the Reach was the CraigsList page.
Guys. It was fucking amazing. I have never, ever laughed that hard or that loudly or that much at the movies--much less with everyone else laughing along with me just as much.
Simple, direct, and to the point, with so much fun along the way.
