  1. Bought and played this after playing Dreamfall chapters ep 2, Life is strange ep 2, Tales from the Borderlands ep 1 and Game of thrones ep 2 (I think), and wanting more. In short: By far the least enjoyable Telltale game in my opinion. 3 problems. 1: It's the shortest Telltale game since The walking dead season 2. Episode 2 is the worst in that regard. Episode length seems to have stabilised with Game of thrones and Tales from the Borderlands. Anyway, this is / was a known issue with Telltale games. 2: It's a bit strange, but with these "cinematic" games, we have to talk about "editing". Telltale isn't that good with it. Scenes don't transition smoothly into eachother, and the outdated engine is partly to blame, but it's mostly the writing. To bring ep 2 up again, it ends with a very unsatifying cliffhanger. In an episode of Law & Order for example, this would be a commercial break cliffhanger, not the end of an episode. There was really no reason why we shouldn't be able to explore that room fully in that episode, it was only done so they could have 5 episodes, while it should really have been only 4. 3: existing franchise. This is also Game of thrones biggest problem. I thought the characters and the setting were pretty cool, but after the game, I was reading up on some of the comic storylines, and found out your choices mean shit really. Game of thrones and especially Tales from the Bordelands and Walking dead circumvent this by letting you play with original characters.
  2. Some updates from me for some of the episodic games (and I own most of them since The walking dead I think..)
  3. Disappointed about the game, I really want a proper sequel. But if the Amiibo looks nice, I may buy my first.
  4. Just like the last thread, I could post a whole list, but for now I'll settle for this: After getting my first taste of the Oculus Rift today (@GoTExhibit), I'd really like an Oculus Rift. Plus the computer required for it.
  5. Hmm, let's have a look at my Steam library.. Bihazard: Gay Chris and straight Jill are trapped in a mansion full of dangerous bisexuals. This war of Ine: Fierce_Link has some explaining to do.
  6. Well, if you haven't already, you can get a taste of the anarchy here: http://www.n-europe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=54288 The rules will also be more or less the same. Why, who's stopping you? :p Added the people from the general thread and this thread. Thanks people. Obviously I hope to get more players (and I'd love to get some veterans back, but I'm not expecting anything), but I will go ahead with 8 players, so be prepared to start next weekend! Can't say if it will be Friday, saturday or sunday though, depends on my other plans.
  7. Anyone up for a new Riot mafia? I had so much fun hosting that.
  8. I went through my ticket stubs, reconstructing my lists for 2014 and 2013. Pretty complete, although there are a few films missing. Complete lists below, but here are my favourites: Favourites 2014 Only lovers left alive imdb Finsterworld imdb Fantail imdb Han Gong-Ju imdb trailer Once upon a time in Shanghai imdb The Lego movie imdb Captain America: the winter soldier imdb The grand Budapest hotel imdb Coherence imdb Edge of tomorrow imdb Dawn of the planet of the apes imdb Boyhood imdb Guardians of the galaxy imdb A most wanted man imdb The apology king imdb trailer Locke imdb Whiplash imdb Favourites 2013 Sightseers imdb Ginger & Rosa imdb trailer Halley imdb No imdb De ontmaagding van Eva van End imdb The grandmaster imdb Trance imdb Silver linings playbook imdb Gravity imdb Prince avalanche imdb Short term 12 imdb La grande belleza imdb Frozen imdb
  9. Didn't we already have a general film thread :p. I have a cinema subscription since last month, so I'll be seeing more films than I'd normally would from now on. One of my favourite films from last year, go see it. The film is so effective within its micro budget. Oh! And I believe this is a worldwide event, but motherfucking BLADERUNNER is getting a theatrical release in June. This regards the final cut.

Should be scripting this shit haha.
  10. Haven't posted in a while, but I just had to command you all to play episode 3 right now. The cliffhanger is on par with the last one. This should get a TV show (or well, mini series). Oh but my poor plant died..
  11. The organ thing: that's happening right now, mutants are among us! Read up on [Tetrachromats].
  12. I'll get on it tonight.
  13. (Didn't want to hi-jack the Hearthstone thread any more, so I'll reply here) No, not the Steam versions, that's not the real game. You can download a client from the official site, and then you can play a proper digital version of Magic. It's exactly the same as the paper versions, you buy cards, build decks, and play against other people. You miss out on some of the fun of collecting and playing with physical cards, but there are plenty advantages too. If you download the client, you can try it out for free. You get a set of "fake" cards. They're just there to give you a taste of the game. You can play with them, but you can't trade them. If you do want "real" cards, you can get the cheap ones for free as well, they're usually given away by the more experienced players. That said.. In the previous post, I said I wasn't currently playing it. However, the talk got me in the mood, so I downloaded the new client, bought some new cards, and played a bit. But the new client is worse than the old one. The old one wasn't fantastic, but got the job done. With the new one, it's hard to keep the overview. And it's extremely slow.. I had some fun with the crappy decks I built with my new cards, but the experience with the client wasn't good at all.
  14. I was about to post this. I loved their previous game, Contrast (the only critique I have it's too short). The artstyle in Contrast was fantastic, and this looks to be no different. And it looks to have the Bioshock flavour of creepy as well, awesome. I don't need any more info to pre-order.
  15. I subscribed to their newsletter, but I need to see footage before I get excited. So now, I wait. Or rather, I forget about it until there's news.
  16. I gave that short 6 minutes before I gave up. Incredibly boring, fighting choreography was abysmal (that's when I gave up). Tone was totally different from the scene before it. Now I'm not a Power Ranger fan, and I barely recall seeing some of the first show, but I didn't get any Power Rangers vibe from that video, regardless if it was meant as a parody, a gritty version, or a parody of gritty versions.
  17. I'm currently not playing Magic, but I've invested over $ 300,- in digital cards, and those aren't going away. I can see some appeal to players new to TCGs, but personally I prefer the plethora of options in Magic. And a quick side note, if you want to be competitive in Magic, then yes, you need to invest some money, but if you just want to play and have fun, you really don't have to spend much. In fact, you can play for free too, but your options are somewhat limited then.
  18. You're welcome . (I'll spoiler it :P) edit: but yeah, if it wasn't clear, I get the bar too, again, I assume it's a function within Tapatalk or something (which I don't use). Dr. Bob's image in the funny stuff thread has the different resize function.
  19. A browser update wouldn't change the javascript on this site . Let me see how this picture looks: Hmmz. The pop-up does mention being uploaded through Tapatalk, so then I assume Tapatalk has something to do with it.
  20. Did you upgrade the forum in any way? I just noticed it in the funny stuff thread. You used to get an ugly bar above your image if it's too big, and you could click it to get a bigger version. Now the bar is gone, you can just click the image, and you get a nicer looking pop-up box.
  21. Nice upgrade on the image resize function. I guess that wasn't a question.
  22. Does anyone want a Steamworld dig 50% discount Steam coupon? ""Valid until 2/22/2015 11:41:45 PM", I assume CET.
