Have you heard about these "Elusive Targets" being added to Hitman?

Seems kind of awesome! Brad and Dan need to get in on this. It would be perfect for UPF this week.

Plays just as well, more interesting setting, Kratos isn't the main character.
This just raises more questions. Are they always recording themselves? They say they don't care but record themselves reacting to being VAC banned and regretting not moving items. What? Such a weird mentality.

It got viewed, didn't it?
I would love to see them try it on UPF. One chance to take him out. Such a cool concept.
I only caught the beginning and end of MPP6, but I gotta say
Dan
As some who has never played a turn based strategy game more complex than Civ and has always been scared off of 4X games - Master or Orion (new one) or Stellaris. Which is more newcomer friendly and why?
thx

That same dude dropped another bomb at the one and only Mr. Jaffe:

Well this would seem super tense to do.
Also it would only be like a 5 mins section on UPF since you only get one death and we know how Brad and Dan play.

I'm not sure if my interest in FTL style games outweighs my disinterest in zombie games
Yo Chapter 11 was something else

I've missed the vast majority of the last week or so of Quick Looks. What's been must-watch recently?

Twilight Struggle with Drew & Austin is great. Pocket Card Jockey is good, too, just for how unexpectedly and maniacally dense that game is.
They can swear on video now? wow!
Austin/Drew sounds like a good duo. I need to watch that.
O'Dimm is incredibly well done. That spoon scene...

What is this referring to? I love FTL so definitely am curious what you are talking about!
Drew doesn't swear though
Was kinda joke reply since I don't understand why that is so important. "wow, Drew said fucked!" ... I don't get it. More context please.
Really? Not paying close attention to that then, heh.

Yea as far as I know there's no video with him cursing (at least that's what I was told in here previously haha)
Guys - regardless of what the Bombcast says, im loving Battleborn.
It makes me sad that the guys hated it so much.. but honestly, they hate most mobas so it made sense why the game didnt appeal to them.
I agree that the Borderlands personality is a little too much and it doesnt feel as good as the shooting in Overwatch, but it still stands on its own as a good game IMO.
Trying to compare Overwatch to Battleborn is like trying to compare TF2 to Dota. It really makes zero sense.
I understand why the comparison is happening, but when you really play both of them, you see how the comparisons end after the moba character archetypes.

I can't speak for MoO, but the thing about Stellaris, apart from the good tutorials, which makes it quite newcomer friendly is that it has a slow ramp; you aren't thrust into the thick of things. Like most other 4X games, you're quite limited in regards to what you can do at the beginning of the game, so you can take your time to absorb the available mechanics, and then new elements which are introduced via tutorial quests. The early game is a lot like Civ in that you're expanding and establishing colonies, and by the time you get to the mid game and really have to deal with other empires, you'll probably have a good enough handle on the diplomacy stuff to handle it.
Also, quality-wise, it seems that Stellaris is much better than MoO.

As said above Stellaris has an excellent tutorial that even a noob like myself can understand it. (Played like an hour of CKII, that's about the extent of my grand strategy knowledge.)
hmph
dammit, I was about to post something similar.
Hope it's cross play so he can use his account for the QL.

I am too deep into GB lore. I knew what this thread was going to be about.
I'M AWARE HE'S AWARE!

it's funny because it's an extremely easy game to get into and play with some level of success without even wrapping your head around all the crazy shit
and then you start trying to figure out all the systems and you start to lose your mind

That is a Jeff response alright.

Have they done the Mario Party stream? I'm flying for 15 hours on Sunday and that would be awesome to have with me.
Yes, the archive is going up on the site today.
Archive should become available sometime today, so you'll have it for Sunday.
