Anyone else see the new Far Cry trailer?
@SilentHills said in General Video Game Thread:
Just a fun, brief note on Far Cry 6: a good friend of mine who I used to MU* with was a writer on Far Cry 5 and has been working on Far Cry 6! She's super stoked to see her work finally being introduced. I couldn't be more proud of her.
I have never played a Far Cry game and I saw this trailer and immediately wanted it.
Good job, writer. I'm in.

@Wizz I enjoyed The Old Guard but kept wanting to scream, "Now cut off his head!" and yelling at them to get to holy ground.
Sooooo.... Highlander: The Series?

Fucking tragic, man.
That whole cast is cursed, I swear.
Dear Douchebag Attorney,
You have a fucking J.D. I know you know what 'no records responsive to your request' means. You can get mad about it if you really want, and sure, you can send the subpoena, but just because you list a document you think we have on a piece of paper doesn't mean that we actually have it, and your list shows that you have not the first clue how this even works.
Did you do any research before you started flailing?
I am not your paralegal. Just because you don't know what a thing is called or who actually produces/maintains it does not mean that I am required to go hunt it down for you.
Also, FOIA is federal. We use different rules.
Fuck.

You could disassemble half the castle and try to build something on top of it, but are you really going to be happy with a weird castle/highrise hybrid?
I dunno, man. Xanatos's pad was pretty dope:
@Paradox said in Why no Star Trek games?:
How does a character 'level' in Star Trek? They attain rank & additional duties.
Does this have to be the case, though?
I mean, I will fully admit that I've never so much as seen a Star Trek RPG book so I'm fully talking out of my ass here and don't know the systems that exist at all, but it seems like there's so much more that could be done with Trek characters than just 'advance to the next rank'. Many of the fan favorites end up advancing to the next rank because they've figured out certain skills and developed talents and relationships unique among the crew. Or they stay in their exact positions and get put in charge of their own little tasks. Voyager had quite a bit of this. Not very many people actually 'levelled up' in the sense that they got to wear a new color of uniform, but there was plenty of character growth there.
Could Star Trek be run as a game with a more personal discovery / social conflict sort of deal? (Legit asking, I have no idea.) Lords and ladies seem to be a pretty common theme. Why not Lords and Ladies in space in a setting that most nerds know fairly in depth?
@Jeshin said in [NSFW] Erotic RP Concepts:
Will the most popular grid spot be the coffee house with the kink store or the karaoke bar with the sex dungeons as rooms for singing?
Uh, no.
It'll be the coffee house with the kink store slash karaoke bar with the combination sex dungeon / tattoo parlor / auto shop.
Obvi.
@Jennkryst said in Why no Star Trek games?:
Obvious answer is because I will jump in on any ads demanding they add spaceflight and scare off staff.
You monster.
@Seamus said in Why no Star Trek games?:
think a lot has to do with the Military style setting more.than anything. I think the game would need to be like DS9 to allow for the most wide range of PC concepts to make it work
How about a game where all of you are playing small Maquis cells struggling against the monolithic Federation? Or hell, maybe the Terran Empire?
No? Just me then?

Having a really light-hearted, fun, casual, jokey conversation about ordinary and not even passably problematic things.
Some rando butting in: I see you are all talking about things that make you happy. Let me tell you about the sadness that plagues my life and why I myself could never experience such happiness as you are currently enjoying. It all began when I was a small child ...
I have recently been acquainted with a person like this. I really just want to give her a Personal Raincloud code object.
Fuck, man.
@Quinn said in Real World Peeves, Disgruntlement, and Irks.:
@Ominous Oh do I have a treat for you--each Daisy Scout gets a website and you can just order them online and have them shipped to you! Cookie time next year even if we're quarantined we are hitting people up hard through email.
You provide the link. I provide the cheddar.
@Seamus said in Gauging Interest in a new Erotic RP MU* (with anonymous survey):
The claiming of sleeping beauty. That would be an interesting setting.
Pretty much any Anne Rice.
@Sparks said in Ensign Sue... the comic:
FWIW, if you enjoy Ensign Sue Must Die, it's actually the first part of a trilogy:
- Ensign Sue Must Die
- Ensign Two: Wrath of Sue
- Ensign Cubed: Crisis of Infinite Sues
Sadly, the Interrobang Studios site and store seem to be gone, so the print copies I have here are probably no longer obtainable, but I think the whole thing (including the second and third arcs) is still somewhere on Kevin Bolk's DeviantArt page. (Bolk being the co-creator and artist.)
!!!!!!!!!!

and def set the Qunari for me.
Tallis and the Arishok both did that for me.
@Macha said in Dead Celebrities 2020:
Benny Mardones, singer of that song that my parents loved and made me roll my eyes as a kid.
I mean, it probably should have. He was like 34-looking-50 and singing about his enduring love for a sixteen year old. C'mon.
Oh, I legit thought that you meant that sort of symbolism-analysis of weirdly banal stuff, lol. You're just talking reasoning and critical thinking, though, which is way less 'secret arcane knowledge' than I was hoping it would be.
@Tinuviel said in Ensign Sue... the comic:
@Auspice There's actually a reason we do that, though.
Go oooon....
Divinity = stale white marshmallow fluff, sometimes with nuts in it. Despite that it remains strangely tasty.
