But that trailer certainly kicked ass.  |

Just a random poopy quote from AVGN, lol. But I always thought it was one of his best. Can't remember the game though...

And Elara told me to post by me reading this thread title. PIME TARADOX!!!!

Thanks again everyone.

I guess maybe I will post another picture of me... I have a really good one that's like, me in the distance on a couch and you can kind of see the side of my face! Think I'll post that one...

The orange colors remind me of the weird orange admin color we had for awhile I believe. |

Does she post on Jul? Tell her to quit and come here. |
If her site is gone though I'd be surprised if she stashed away my layout somewhere. I don't think I did unfortunately, least I can't find it anywhere.

Yeah it's no joke Deus Ex is one of my top favorite games of all time, I don't even kid about that. I am currently probably in my 20th replay (literally) that I started up recently after installing a handful of mods making it look and run awesome.

Deus Ex on modern systems. Unreal Engine DX10 Renderer. Basically what I got: - That DX10 Renderer - Deus Exe (double check what I just typed there, it took me a second to see it lol) - Shifter v 1.8.4 (seems to be a fanmade assortment of bugfixes, tweaks, etc) - New Vision (new 75% complete version came out just days ago) - Deus Ex Enhanced (higher resolution UI, text, etc, took awhile to get used too but I like it) And the game is looking pretty epic. But anyways, HR? I'm not going to lie, I played the leak a few months back which was literally like 80% of the game from what I heard, but I only got to the first hub world in Detroit I think? I didn't really want to spoil the experience too much, and it ran insanely bad on my computer so I probably will have to get this on consoles... BUT, I certainly played enough to say that this game is a step in the right direction compared to Invisible War (that said I honestly don't hate Invisible War at all, it was still a good game compared to what else was coming out around that time, one of the first with a good physics engine, etc). But yes, HR seems much better. To be honest, it seems to pull a lot of influences and ideals from Robocop though, and with it being a prequel to Deus Ex, yet nano augmentations being a huge crucial thing in the storyline, I am very curious how it'll tie into the first game. Because here, augmentations are all the rage for the rich society and things like that, whereas in the first Deus Ex game it's mainly government officials who were the only ones with access to this stuff. So my guess is maybe the augmentations has a stock market crash or something like that, seriously, lol. I dunno, but hopefully it makes sense building up into the first game. The level design was quite open just like the first game with a lot of multiple paths to take, vent shafts, things like that. And I can definitely say the game seems to lean more towards playing stealth, which is fine with me since that's how I liked playing the first two games. Jensen's Batman voice is a bit much, but after I realized he sounds a lot like Alan Wake, I fell in love with it. Some of the voice acting and character animations while talking was a little unpolished, but oh well. Can't be perfect. All in all I'm stoked, should be one of the best games of the year no doubt.

Haha but yeah man seriously, I guess you played it on the PS3 or something first time around? I hear that version is better than the 360's, but indeed... it still looks terrible. My computer is no beast at all, but by god it ran WAY better and looked way better on my PC than it did on the consoles. I honestly thought the game was pretty damn solid, I didn't love the penthouse stages at the start, but after that it was a blast.

Huh, you guys should elaborate on this Nerd Weekend idea, I think I like where this is going. Haha.
|
I think somewhat related, for awhile last year and before off and on my friends and I would get together with a brand new game, say Uncharted 2, and have a gaming marathon and end up beating a lot of games in one day. We decided to keep it fair and everyone got their own marathon day every week or so, so one weekend my friend would play a game new or old, then the next would be another friend, then the next would be my turn, etc. I played RE4, didn't finish that one though but we got like 11 hours in haha. It was a cool idea, sadly we never do it now. Myself and most of my good buddies are all pretty poor honestly ... that might have something to do with it, haha. The new thing for all of us though is playing board games. Seven Wonders, Thunderstone, Ticket to Ride, objective based games like that. Thunderstone is definitely my top favorite, it's basically a mildy quick and easy dungeon crawling card game. You play competetively, but during the game you play against the game to get victory points if that makes sense. 
Top 4 cards is the "dungeon". With each level, left to right, you need "Light" or you get a penalty of -2 to your attack for every level. So level 1 = -2, level 2 = -4, level 3 = -6. You start off with a pre-set number of the cards at the very bottom, 2 Knives, 2 Torches (Light), 2 Food items, and 6 Militia. Then from there, you build your deck. Each turn you draw 6 cards from your hand. You have three choices during your turn, you can "rest" to destroy a card if you want (get rid of a militia since they're not good, or a disease card you can get from going to the dungeon and defeating some monsters or something) or to simply do nothing if it's a bad hand to put that in the discard pile until you need to reshuffle, or the main options are: Got to the dungeon, or go to the village and buy a card. Every card you have has a gold value so you can determine how much you have in your hand that way to purchase stuff. The second to top row of cards are the Heroes you can buy. By defeating monsters in the dungeon, you gain XP and during your village turns can level these Heroes up eventually. Defeating monsters nets you victory points so that's how you determine who wins at the end, and some level 3 Heroes have victory points (they're hard to get and pretty expensive, there's usually only 2-3 or so per Hero set as well), and sometimes small items might have a point or two. The game is near damn endless, with a phone app my friends and I use to randomize the village/dungeon sometimes or you can sometimes play with pre-set setups. There's tons of expansions too so it just keeps getting interesting. Here's a slew of some crazy cards and such: - Tax Collector (Gain 1 gold per player, so a great one for the village) - Some other cards that let you buy two village cards at once if you have the money - Level 2-3 Thieve Heroes (who actually have "Light" themselves), always make every other player discard one card when played. Very annoying! - A lot of village cards have options to destroy them, like "Destroy this card for + Attack or + More extra gold), etc. - There's "Strength" stats on all the heroes for weapon items. There's village cards that can give all heroes +3 to strength and attack, and so on. So this helps lower level heroes equip weapons for more damage. - When you defeat a monster, that card goes into your deck/discard. Sometimes they have like +1 Attack or something. Then the next monster card is drawn, sometimes we play with "Trap cards", which can be like ... "Starting from your left, each player draws one card at a time and the first three Hero cards drawn are destroyed", so these traps suck! Then recently we got an expansion that actually has Treasure Cards, which are obviously awesome. - etccccccccc I'll just stop there because I have no idea why I'm explaining all this but damn this game is fun! Haha. One of my best friends who disappeared for 3 years to become an RN is hanging out with us a lot more now that he's graduated too, so that's awesome. Kind of reconnecting with him and another old friend from jr. high / high school, who's married now and has a kid on the way. It's still pretty surreal. I still feel like a kid, lol. Anyways I tend to spend too much time in my room on my own thesedays, but I just need to find some work for awhile and I won't complain about that much. But yeah, dunno if it's some small time depression (nothing like years ago though and my mind is way better off than it was then!), but yeah I often lately feel like my home is prison. I just need to get out more so my mind isn't always wandering, etc, and just need to keep busier, bring in some income, etc. Definitely thinking of going back to school for real sometime in the future too, maybe I can get into some accelerated training and get a BA in 3 years as I work full time... I think I'd totally do it now. Just gotta wait until I'm 25 I guess to apply to more schools like that. But for me nerd time is the same as always. Watching a lot of anime, playing videogames, browsing the net, etc. I don't know what happened but I finally got kind of a JRPG groove back this year and last as well, I've been replaying a lot of SNES favorites and hitting up a lot of new ones too, I'm currently knee deep into FFV after beating FFIV and FFII (both the PSP remakes which rocked), BACK TO BACK! So three FF's in a row and I'm not feeling burned out at all. Several years ago it was a miracle for me to beat a JRPG once a year, haha.

I wish I were joking, but here it is... another amazing quality picture of me!

I'm on the right, no idea what was going on that made my friend smile like that. Creeps me out. There you have it!  This is like a year or two old as well!
