I kind of hope that one day Valve will force all servers to play vanilla for a week or two.

So the Demoman can dominate everyone.

Even in the most egregious cases you're never going to mistake one class for another, even more impressive is how identifiable the loadouts of a person are with the telegraphing of the new weaponry and combination possibilities.
Fantastic news, I'm buying both if the price is right.

Yeah but it's not like there's a "tastefully dressed" server where you can play on. I don't have a problem with how tf2 added item aesthetic items but it certainly changed the game from a multiplayer shooter with a unique art style to a wacky looking first multiplayer shooter. Its fine but it's certainly less distilled than it was when the game released.
I could still identify a Demoman in the game. It's not like he become white by wearing the cosmetics.
that's still very much the case

It was always pretty wacky, the artstyle came about from the weird cartoony gameplay concepts like rocket jumping afterall. But now you have a more kitchen sink approach to character aesthetics, it kind of reminds me of a toned down version of the characters you can choose from in Quake 3 or UT. In any case, while you can have some truly terrible looking combinations with some items and paints just seemingly being there for the sole purpose of looking bad, I still like it because of the customization it allows me to do for myself. I'm okay with taking the bad with the good.
Are you basing this off of that image he posted? Or actually playing the game? The characters are still easily distinguishable from each other in practice.

Dark Boy gave me more trouble (clearly, going by the dates), as you have at least 4 less items than you do in the Womb.
Never, ever thought I'd get Dark Boy. Fairly pumped.
Nice. I've been working on getting all the medals and then moving onto NG+. INTO MY VEINS Klei.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
Damn. Racial profiling.
I finished up Alan Wake + Signal + Writer. I actually really like the game, and Writer did some really cool
stuff. Goddamn cliffhangers! Looking forward to Alan Wake 2.
Next up is Bulletstorm; that's reasonably short right? I want to finish up some games before Bioshock Infinite.
I'm about 2 hours in. The FOV is fucking nauseating though.

I just find it humorous that they allowed such customization given how much effort they put into that aspect of the game. I get the feeling they expected more hard core competition, originally?
But you guys are right, in the game it really doesn't seem to matter.
I find it funny that people still play TF2. Tempted to boot it back up to see what Mann vs Machine is like but I use TF2 like I use internet banking. Go on check hats then check market for value and chop them in.
still the best multiplayer shooter ever made since the twitch quake/unreal days
yeah it's super short. I finished it in one sitting with a friend and I can't be with people for too long or else they start noticing I'm not that likeable
speaking of playing games with people, Miasmata of all games makes for an awesome game to play with friends. just trying to chart yourself back to the world and debating over which road to take and whatnot is great. we still haven't found the dreaded monster but imma make it a weekly thing with my friends to do a couple hours of coop Miasmata.
I love that I can jump back in after months away and still feel competent.
Just about every other online fps game out there I get owned if I do this. I still bear scars from my return after a summer long break from Tribes 2.
Favourite game ever.
This game is unexpectedly addictive.

Binding of Isaac is amazing.
Oh no doubt but it's coming up to 6 years old. Yeah it's gone through gazillions of changes and going f2p has really kept the number up but I'm still shocked. Then again I'm an old jaded git. Bah.
Yeah. I actually posted this when all those leaks came out. It was one of the games I checked and was very excited when I saw it listed.

Hitman? I think we should chip in and buy Derrick another copy just because.
Hahaha. Perfect.
Massively OT but I feel like I've been haunted by JaseC all day. On the bus stop on the way to work this morning there was a poster for a film called The Host staring Saoirse Ronan. "Huh" I thought to myself "so shes not just some b-movie actress no one has ever heard of". Next thing I see is about 4 or 5 buses go past with the same advert. "Ok this is getting a bit weird". But then when I finally get on my bus the free paper that is usual given away on there had, yep you guest it an advert for that flipping film again. To further compound my madness there was a trailer on during the news when I got in. All that needs to happen to get me sectioned is JaseC to pop in here.
pretty sure he never got it or played it

Notice I said ANOTHER copy. We can create an account just for him with Hitman as the only game.

If there is an announcement for The Swapper, there must be a registry entry, right? Believe.
Coming to Steam this Spring. The Steam registry entry is here.
Hahahaha. This sounds like some Clockwork Orange conditioning theory. Strap Derrick down to a chair forcing him to play games he hates while playing something he loves so he ends up associating them together. Next time he's berating a game it makes hims so nauseous he vomits.
Edit: Only joking Derrick
Also isn't AC:III meant to have serious PC performance problems? Game's purring at the moment and just got to the fps killer that is Boston and getting 50-80 fps. It's still shitty though. All the patching in the world isn't going to sort that out.
You and me both. I didn't buy it though thank god.
