What would a Hipster's equivalent of punching someone in the face be actually...

Preparing to punch someone in the face, then going "It's not worth it" and assuming the moral high ground.
Deeply inhale, puff cheeks and walk away shouting "YOU JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND!".
i mean it's not really because they're hipsters, it's mostly because they're generally unpleasant people
like the teacher is super annoying but you know that's his lifestyle, no biggie, but you know that highschool bitch queen i was like "i'm gonna do as many bad things to her as possible". like stop being dicks, people
is it though? does that mean it's time for me to do a new play through?

Y'know... sometimes there's just something about in the air on a long summer night. Hard to put to words what it is, really. Just a... a sort of, heft? Like you take a deep breath and can feel the history surrounding the molecules you're using to sustain life. Ain't nothin weird about it, just a natural, organic action. But inside your lungs, for that moment, you hear the stories of every ounce of oxygen. The love poems they once recited under a hopeless romantic's breath. The campfires they were swallowed by, with a hint of whiskey and smores. The fibers of a movie projector's image that streamed through em.
That's about the way life goes in Kentucky Route Zero. Dense with individual drama, tinges of love, regret, stumbling into your own demons on a dark country back road. You've probably been down these roads before, or at least ones very similar to. There'll be a moment of reflection, deja vu of a scene, an emotion, a song that played on the radio during some dramatic moment in your life. Is it possible to find nostalgia in pain?
's something kinda special about this surreal little tale. One that's stuck with me over the past few years unlike anything else that's passed through my brain cells. I can't speak highly enough on the way each moment has burrowed deep in my head, lines of dialog coming to surface after a long spelunking session in the depths. It has taken a few years to get over halfway done, so I don't blame whoever wins this for not loading up right away. But I hope whoever does get it falls for its magic just as much as I have and understands why exactly it means so much to me.

That was nice, CheesecakeRecipe ^_^ And thanks for reminding me I had this game, I'm in the mood for something sentimental
I asked a day or two ago, but I didn't see any response. Have they fixed Dark Forces 2 on Steam to actually work well on modern PCs?
Thanks. That is an easy site to miss for giveaways.

I've been good Kiyone! I only bought one game today. *crosses fingers*
*crosses fingers*Not exactly sure where to mention this put, but this thread seems like the place, I just did an interview with Night Dive Studios wherein it has been revealed to me that they are planning on bring indie game Spirits of Xanadu to the service. Cult adventure game Noctopolis is re-released with getting remastered music ad widescreen support. Powerslave/Exhumed is being worked on and the big shocker is the Saturn version is being planned to be included in the package. Finally, No One Lives Forever news is coming soon but not the news people are expecting.
but why is it good shit? what exactly is it?

WB will release a new NOLF Moba Game!
Is it sad that I can see this actually happening in the world of today?
...bad news?
it's an interactive surrealistic tale. you walk around and read text, sometimes you get dialogue choices. your choice may trigger a response later on, but it's a strictly directed game that's just a fascinating experience because of how well done it all is. the visuals and the sound design and the script are all super good and it's just a very compelling game
it's hard to explain because it's mostly something that's got to be experienced. there's not much to it from the "gaming" perspective, if you will, but actually having that bit of interactivity and choosing your dog's name and replying about your past and whatever makes your story feel really intimate. and nothing you say will actually "alter the story" or give you a different ending, but it still makes all the difference in the world
i very much recommend it
I got the sense it was good news for us, bad news for him, as in WB got the NOLF trademark, but this is merely my own speculation.

It's a high-concept indie adventure/experience game. It has to be good, right?

Never heard of Noctropolis
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Noctropolis
Are they even allowed to release SEGA Saturn games like that?
I guess they are, seems like it was a bit in the distance though.

Act 3 song that makes the game worth it
that's a weird, unnecessary attitude to have
sounds interesting enough. i dig a good story...
and also good music
it's minimalistic, so don't expect incredible cutscenes or whatever, but it can sure be a sight to behold at times
and the sound design is great. i don't play games with headphones often, but for kr0 i found it to be really important
well if also lines up, i'll find out tomorrow
ALSO: trying to play KotOR again, but my swkotor.ini file is...missing? as in it doesn't exist in my installation folder. gone a kind soul please pm me the contents of the ini so i might make a proper file?
and no, i don't have the steam version so it isn't as simple as verifying the file cache

I may be wrong, but i believe the game creates the ini files when you launch and play it for the first time. either way, lemme PM it to you, in case you already did that.
As I said, that is merely my own speculation, all that could be said was that news would be forthcoming sometimes in the near future supposedly.
it should. the only problem being it was making one. thank you
*i dl'd the amd fix, and it finally made an ini. whoops

I am going to make it through this year if it kills me
If I don't win KR0 cheesepie will gift me his favorite pen
you need to get that Hatoful Boyfriend game instead
Just watched it too.
Seems like one of those games that is only fun when your with friends who know how to play their class correctly. I can't see how playing with randoms would be good at all, it requires a LOT of teamwork.
Asymmetric gameplay is like my favorite thing but the pacing of this game's off. There's too much downtime. I don't find playing digital hide and seek fun, and that seems like where the majority of time is spent in the game. The leveling up mechanic is rewarding the wrong type of play: hiding.
To be honest, even if it were tuned to be more confrontational, it'd probably still be boring to me. 1 Monster vs 4(?) humans isn't enough, it needs more than one monster duking it out War of the Monsters style, with (optionally) the human players as a unit trying to take them down and maybe also minimizing damage to the environment (urban areas, civilians, etc). Basically more chaos and action rather than slow, tedious downtime.

It seems like a super interesting concept but not one that could carry a whole game. I feel like it would work better as a game mode in a bigger game.
Lets not get started about dlc

Haha, yeah, I took a screenshot because the phrasing strongly suggests that always-online DRM was originally in the game:
I encountered the error again the other day, which I found a little odd as I figured Ubi would have tried to ninja-patch it out.

Hmm, I don't know about this, the casting of Rupert Friend is actually pretty good, I had my doubts but he seems like he fits the role, but the rest of the movie just seems like typical dumb action movie trash that doesn't do the Hitman name justice. Give the rights to Nicolas Winding Refn and let him make an actual Hitman movie.
my big problem with evolve is the one i'm gonna have with every multiplayer game ever: i just don't wanna pay for it
like, no matter how good it is, i'm already playing a competitive game in league of legends so i can't really see myself dedicating enough time to be any good at any other game unless it's really really good, and having to actually buy that game is a huge barrier of entry that i'm not interested in crossing because i can't really imagine finding something i enjoy more than league of legends and that provides me with the same level of "competitive excitement"
like i'd rather just play a f2p shooter or play call of duty twice a year during free weekends than invest a lot of money on a game that's still gonna ask me to buy map packs and still is likely to try and sell me cosmetics
i spent like $150 on league of legends which might not be lot of money for most people here and for most league players but to me that's a lot, and i've done it because i could just spend it bit by bit and because i never felt ripped off.
like, if a game wants me to spend money on it it should either be free and let me spend money at my leisure like all the other f2p games in which i've sunked different amounts of money into, or just give me everything for the base price and stop screwing me over
you just run behind the creature until you catch it. there's no way to like create a portal to the other side of the map or to split up and corral the monster or just lay a trap and ambush it or anything like that. or at least there didn't seem to be in the video, which might be not the greatest representation of the game since the gb crew isn't really looking for that anyways

i think it looks like a cool game that has a ton of grinding tied to it which absolutely kills all my desire to play it because i'm not gonna dedicate it enough time to enjoy it
from what i watched it didn't seem like the space before interacting with the monster was bad, but that space was actually filled with essentially nothing

i dunno, to me it seems like a really cool concept for a game, but maybe not as well realized as it should be?
