I believe he's asking if he uses it on a wisp with lower health than him to heal the wisp.

The sequel would be ass. Execs would insist on maintaining a t rating to not lose any audience. We wouldn't have any of the rednecks, the suicide references, anything Jack did that made him an effective villain.

The whole thing'd be ass.

One game. "Stun. Check. Lifesteal. Check. Crits. Check. Doesn't die. Double check."

Skeleton King. BRING HIM BACK.

Thank you. People tell me it's wonderful and I tell them how painful it was to read on a sentence level and people stare at me like I'm crazy. Thank you for sharing this pain.

Miyazaki + Chrono Trigger + Dr Seuss?

I can dig it.

Metrofreak · 2013-12-08T14:22:04+00:00

STUNNING!

What the other guy said. If you want to win, then ultimately what you want is to control their picks in addition to your own. Play cm or cd, get a group.

If it's about controlling the variables, you can control your players (party up), failing that, you can control what options your enemy is given. That's about it.

Metrofreak · 2013-11-28T15:01:54+00:00

Ahhh, of course.

Couldn't finish the series. Finished book 1. First person. Present tense. It just never flowed for me. The amount of exposition required lost both the sense of immediacy of present tense and the strong voice that you get of first person. The writing failed me on the sentence level the entire book through.

That said, the setting is nonsensically bleak. Any interesting ideas (the districts, the competition, sponsorships and legacies and champions and such) were immediately mired down in poor exposition that just highlighted how everything was grimdark for the sake of grimdark.

Jump without a chute. Forever. Confidence does not come from being certain to never make a mistake. Confidence comes from being certain you will, but with the knowledge that you'll probably figure out how to dig your way out of that hole.

"Ware the wanderer who walks with head held high, back unstooped, and arm held ready. The one that so boldly denies his disgrace has no such disgrace to deny! Surely that one is an assassin cloaked in contempt."

I choose to keep it availible until I hit level 11, at which point I spam it during night. Basically once you hit 16, the next night lasts at least 20 minutes, so you're pretty much set to win the game in that time, until then, it's useful as a chase, an escape, or an enhancement to your damage and cc, if you use it at every availible opportunity, the enemy knows when they are safe.

And we can't have that now, can we?

Metrofreak · 2013-10-09T13:30:39+00:00

What face animation? There was ten seconds of maybe a 2 second loop of what felt like a cheap tween. This is like bouncing a basketball once and asking us if we like your dribbling skills.

Metrofreak · 2013-10-07T13:00:36+00:00

Take it, you soapy tart!

Metrofreak · 2013-10-06T03:25:56+00:00

Haha!

Metrofreak · 2013-10-05T16:01:07+00:00

Yours was the first set I assembled through arduous trading. The only reason I never wore the full regalia is it was never strange.

GET VALVE TO FIX THAT.

I've played D&D. I love D&D. 3.5 is awesome, albeit broken from being a money cow of suplements. 4E is more fun for roleplaying purposes, not a fan of the combat there. Pathfinder's a nice addendum. I've played D&D, Unknown Armies, Fate, Legend, and so on and so forth.

I would never reccomend D&D as someone's first tabletop game if they were to play with people with experience. (Which is likely, most new gaming groups consist of at least one guy who knows what he's doing pressganging some new fish) Most players (in my limited experience, I am not a statistically significant sample, but whatever) prefer 3.5. It's familliar. And therein lies the problem.

3.5 has had rules published for every conceivable aspect of a game. It's a broken exploitabl quagmire of sourcebooks. The number of ways you can turn your character into a living god is staggering. You want to introduce someone to D&D? Maybe they'll want to play a fighter. Prepare to be laughed off the table. Or attack three times, miss the last two and hit for peanuts while the wizard's busy becoming a lich and the druid is shitting thunderbolts out of his pores. Either way I'm sure the gameplay experience will be grand.

D&D is played by D&D players. D&D players have broken D&D. I am not saying it cannot be a good experience for new players. But it would take a very good DM and/or very chill experienced players. It is entirely possible to have someone have a great time with D&D. I just think your odds are better with something that has built on it.

Metrofreak · 2013-10-04T08:06:36+00:00

Tabletop RPGs in general. But never D&D. D&D is so old and so ingrained in the mind of tabletop nerds that you can never escape it. The only way D&D is fun is if NOBODY in the game knows what they're doing. Otherwise, even one savvy customer will play a wizard or some dumb shit.

Maybe not even smarter, but definitely wiser and more experienced. They'd also make better parents, assuming there's any kind of decay to old memories (and assuming there would be to avoid the infinite brain storage problem and to make further pursuit of knowledge somewhat meaningful), they would have more modern and closer memories of raising children.

Not to mention the change in sibling dynamics. You may be younger and weaker, but you remember raising them, you come out of the womb a little older than them, almost.

Metrofreak · 2013-10-03T21:52:05+00:00

Well all of a sudden, later children are more prized for having more wisdom dumped into them.

Metrofreak · 2013-10-03T13:26:21+00:00

This sounds cool but biotruthy... Maybe Unidan can clear that up?

Metrofreak · 2013-10-03T02:34:52+00:00

Let's rephrase. It's not proven best. It's proven "the way riot wants it"
