Hardly surprising, the story of Destiny is the story of them screwing over PvE to balance PvP. I don't know why they won't just have the two separately balanced.

Yeah, I generally double post if it's been more than a few minutes.

Oh, I thought him freaking out and falling over backward, and his friend cracking up in the background were also part of it. But anyway, if I ever get a VR headset I'm definitely putting googly eyes on it.

Okay no really though, I'm done now...

The googly eyes are my favorite part.

I enjoy reading it even though I never comment. Like most of the websites I visit, honestly.

It's almost like Nintendo doesn't like making money.

It'll probably be the original, as I understood it for the NES Mini they just used straight rom dumps.

Isn't Automata set like thousands of years after the first one anyway?

Okay, I'm gonna pretend that I'm done now.

If so it's used rarely, I've only ever encountered "half-assed", at least in writing. Obviously in speech it would be hard to tell the difference, but at least around here people typically just say "half-ass" with no past-tense.

I broke down and got Ori and the Blind Forest as well.

Is that supposed to be an Americanism? Cause I've never heard it before.

I really liked the setting and atmosphere of the first game, but something about the shooting felt off to me and I couldn't sick with it.

@Mr. GOH! Would that still be the case even if lab-grown meat was perfected to the point that it was completely indistinguishable from meat grown on a living animal? Like what if they can clone your thigh muscle for a transplant after an injury, and it will be perfect and identical in every way to your real thigh muscle from before the injury, and they use the exact same techniques to grow food meat as well? Would you consider that to be "really" [animal] meat, or is it still just [animal]-like?

It doesn't gross me out or anything, so yeah if all ethical concerns could be eliminated I'd give it a try.

I have a wireless keyboard & touchpad, and it's fine for browsing the web or whatever, but it's too unwieldy for games.

I want it for games that rely heavily on the mouse, and the Steam controller's touchpad seems better for that than the DS4's (which is fine for little bits, but not for extended usage). I also hate trying to control a cursor with a thumbstick. *Edit - If I'm misunderstanding something I would like to know because I am not opposed to saving the $35 [emoji16]

I also ordered a Steam controller since I like playing games on the TV even when they don't support regular controllers.

Got Orwell, The Turing Test, and Sunless Sea in the Steam sale, all for $19. I got out a lot lighter than I feared.

That's almost enough to sell me a Vive. God I want that game.

Upper 80's are warm. I'm going by my local weather, so ~80% humidity most of the time. I will grant that living in Kansas we tend to have more of a breeze than you're probably used to, and that really does make a big difference. Also I probably need to define "breeze", which is anything less than like 15 mph wind. Anything less than 7-8 mph is uncomfortably still almost no matter the temperature (unless it's below freezing).

Wait, they're taking away my Nightstalker? What the actual fuck?

"Hot" starts at 95F, but given the usual weather in the UK I'll give them that high 80's are close enough (especially with no AC around). When I was making fun of them on Twitter weather.com was still showing highs of ~80F.

I mean something more like "here's a gameplay video, and this is the release quarter" rather than "yes we are working on this" because that second one could turn into a 2022 release on the Nintendo Spank or whatever stupid name they come up with for the next thing (I'm aware the first one could too, but it's not quite as likely).
