Has anybody else read this shit about 7 days to die coming to PS4 and xbone? Not just a console port either, exclusive content and DLC as well. How in the fuck can they justify not just their barely alpha stage game going to consoles, but also rationalize making DLC for it? It's no where near fucking finished. What is this fucking world we seem to have come to where it's perfectly acceptable to start a project, fail to finish it in a timely or sensible manner, and then divert your efforts towards some other thing that will never get finished all the while reaching your hands into peoples wallets to pull out as much cash as you can? Fuck the fun pimps. The only thing fun about them would be kicking their eyes into the back of their skulls.

The one thing I can't stand more than someone blatantly trying to fuck you over, is someone being somewhat friendly while pretending they aren't fucking you while they fuck you. Makes me want to commit some dwarf fortress style violence against them.
They have changed a lot since the kickstarter. I kick starter backed this. My mistake.
Thanks Peri for making me question muh sexualities once again.

I'm sure I would have many regrets if I ever had the dosh to throw at kickstarter projects. :V

Meanwhile in Dwarf Fortress Kobold Kamp...bug of the day: Stone bridges being impossible to build due to demanding metalsmithing, same reason behind stone goblets and sarcophagi.

That's bizarre.

The DOOM multiplayer is in open beta. 35% positive reviews. Lemme lay it down for you, despite the majority of reviews being negative, I will still try this out. As bad as it may be, it still gives a somewhat good idea of how the engine handles and feels. I could give less than a shit about the multiplayer, as it is rarely indicative of main game play. I give less than a shit about the season pass bullshit Bethesda is pulling on this. What I care about is the main game. What I've seen of "gameplay" so far is little more than an on rails scripted gameplay, such trailers are not indicative of real gameplay. I don't really give a shit if Bethesda and id are lifting features from brutal doom and project brutality, as some of those features are great. I grew up with DOOM, it's the first game I can remember playing. What I can see graphically is pleasing and promising, a nice mix of classic enemy designs from 1 and 2 mixed with more modern variants from DOOM 3, but graphics do not make or break a game. Come next month, the main game will be released. I swear on my life, if they fuck this up, I'm done. Not that it would matter to them of course, but as far as I'm concerned, Bethesda can take every single product they have, and go fuck themselves with it. You can fuck around with your fallout and I can forgive that, but you can't shit on my childhood and call it good. I will fist fight any one of you that tries to defend it after that point if it's a failure. I swear to god.

Had a friend grumbling about the new Doom last night, yeah. The loadout system for multiplayer in particular. My reasoning is that a "choose your starting kit" system would be decent if it was less CoD-style. More restrained basically, enough that starting weapons could have advantages relative to each other, but prove inferior at what they do relative to the first obtainable weapon in its category. He also likes the fact you can clamber up stuff if you narrowly miss a jump. How naive. That just means the final game will probably have first-person platforming sans the ability to see your feet.

And while I'm a big fan of ye olde Doom an Doom 2 (and Heretic, Hexen, Strife...) I'm not really going to care if they fuck it up. Partly because Doom 3 already had its "whyyyy" moments, and partly because I doubt I'll ever get it anyway because my computer is a potato. :V

And back to game stuff I've been doing, Grim Dawn again. Despite my shitty net, I'm glad that multiplayer has worked so far when friends do the hosting. Being a pure, 110% soldier geared towards maximum armor is quite amusing when you have a squishier demolitionist on hand to tank for.

I'd think up some joke combining the phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" and referencing the mirror part of that series title, but can't think of one.

Also in Grim Dawn...soon I can either ally myself with a bunch of necromancers, or satanists. What do? :V

Clearly you should go with satanists.
I'd fucking drop kick an old lady, no questions asked.
I am always right when shark dicks are involved.
If it's not interrogation porn then it's poorly named and a missed opportunity.
Well, if you think about it, rape is for fun.
if utterly mad was any gayer, i'd shop here
I'd rather circumcise myself in a public place.
Eh, I don't really find anyone's sig too unreasonable. Though Caconym's is almost unreasonable

It's not even the fun kinda satanists. It's just a religious order that has a hilariously half-baked bit of lore to it.

I played DOOM. Not for long, true, but I got the feel. I'm not going to make a judgement call based on the multiplayer, because as undoomlike as it is, I still wanted to keep playing. Lets be clear though, it feels nothing like DOOM. It feels like Halo. I appreciate the return of health pickups and armor shards. The super shotgun feels alright. The rocket launcher is a mess as you can detonate your missiles the moment they leave the launcher, which is both frustrating and hilarious. It did not instantly overheat my PC. The movement of all three classes was slooooow. Too slow even by halo standards, I couldn't figure out how to go fast. Just wish movement was faster. Oh, and you can't rocket jump, which is a bit of a bummer.

I had to quit due to low FPS, around 15 or so. It was still smooth, but for shooters that is not optimal. A solid 30 or better is what is needed. It's the first game I've had computer related FPS issues with, which means this new DOOM spells the end of my computers life cycle, and the start of it's new life as a potato. I will always love this potato, and someday I will take it to wherever laptops go to die. (usually in a stack with the other old laptops.) For now though, I will wait with baited breath to see if DOOM comes out as a decent representation of that beloved franchise, or if Bethesda is going to shit on the legacy of yet another legendary title.

I have been derping in this game for way too long. Also?

Whoever decided skeleton priests should be dull in coloration and hard to single out in a crowd should have THEIR skeleton removed, painted Quake Brown, then re-inserted.

So I've very recently started playing a lot of Yu-Gi-Oh since I found my old decks from when I was a kid, went out and bought three new decks, currently playing mostly with Monarchs since the whole Pendulum thing is fucking stupid.

Built a spellcounter deck on YGOPRO and it's ridiculously fun to play with, pulled off an infinite spellcounter loop and had my entire deck in my hand.
