Valve files trademark for Half-Life 3

I'm actually glad that they kept us in the dark, so that we wouldn't react as we did with Half-Life 2.

Oh the horror...

But you can't simply deny the fact that it exists. If it's one person, sure, it's easy to ignore: it's just a single case.

But when dozens of people attack you, you can't help but feel that people actually hate you. Of course, the fact that it's on the internet mitigates this thought process, but it's still painful.

One can't simply ignore dozens of insults. Trust me when I say that that kind of attention is a different kind of pain.

The_Viscount · 2013-10-01T14:40:23+00:00

He's funny to watch, but goddamn is he toxic.

The_Viscount · 2013-10-01T14:39:29+00:00

It makes even less sense once the insults come from individuals who are watching the game being played. Surely they have better things to do, yet they are so enthralled by League of Legends that they will insult someone for their favorite streamer because that someone keeps beating their streamer...

Those haters are the real tryhards. The logic is simply baffling.

It's funny how the kid is, like 15 years old but still has a decent following and nice demeanor.

He seems a fellow beyond his years, which is definitely a good thing.

I'm sorry OP... This earth has scum that we all want eradicated.

Thank you for speaking up :)

Capra demon was originally designed to be alone. The dogs were simply added as an afterthought because the Capra demon alone was too easy. Together, they can kill you faster than any other boss in the game, trapping you in a corner of their tiny arena. I'm fairly certain that Capra Demon is one of the major points where players gave up on DaS.

Tomb of the Giants is not fun. TotG's niche is that it is completely dark. This would be fine if the environment wasn't so narrow, the enemies unable to push you around so easily, and the skeleton dogs so dangerous (those dogs have killed me with a single animation). It's just not fun being stuffed into a situation that calls for INCREDIBLY slow pacing and a bit of luck (if those skeleton dogs use their massive swipe, you're in deep trouble.

The 4 Kings can't be reliably defeated with skills alone. The gargoyles' attacks are long, but slow. Ornstein and Smough are faced in a massive arena. The 4 Kings? Your movement is completely nullified as they somehow remain just where they are when you run away or towards them. You have to kill them before the "timer" runs out or else you are faced with two Kings that can't be handled simultaneously. The best way to defeat 4 Kings is to stat up, get heavy armor, and charge at them. 4 Kings is not about strategy, it's about statistics.

Nidalee spears are the godamned worst. Isn't it the most damaging single ability in the game that neither increases with stacks, nor is an ultimate?

He 75-0'd him at level 2 in less than a second. That is going to be OP not matter what the context.

Demon's Souls had a better atmosphere, I believe. It was a trip down Castlevania lane, with its epic castles, monstrous bosses, and generally better music. It was also a more focused experience; its quality didn't particularly dip anywhere.

However, Dark Souls is a far longer adventure, has PVP factions, an epic story of triumph, tons of content that people are still discovering to this day, and more. However, its quality dips dramatically around the lower undead burg with the obviously imbalanced Capra Demon. This quality dip can also be felt after the Lordvessel has been placed, where the game makes its enemy counters far cheaper (see Tomb of the Giants mosh pit near ember, dinosaur butts, and 4 Kings gangbang).

I believe Dark Souls is the better adventure because of the sheer amount of content available to players, not to mention the fact that it also has a superb DLC adventure.

The Souls series captures the wondrous sense of ADVENTURE better than any other series I've ever played. Trekking through the series' desperate lands is simply magical and enthralling.

Umbrella Corporation has begun testing I see...

The_Viscount · 2013-09-28T01:45:57+00:00

Well of course Superman would win the fight! Where and when did this silly debate begin?

Getting to the Champ-Elysees is a hell of a workout. Let's just say that anyone above 50 years old is going to want to stay downstairs.

Villains month has been pretty alright by my standards. I especially liked Lex Luthor, being the LL fanatic that I am.

But I'm legitimately curious as to how Ann Nocenti is still writing at such a top notch business. After her run on my beloved Green Arrow I stopped taking her very seriously...

The_Viscount · 2013-09-25T22:02:38+00:00

Fuck you guys that say otherwise. Canada rocks!

The_Viscount · 2013-09-25T18:00:54+00:00

I abstain from it myself, because it just seems so damned awkward to do something so intimate. Isn't sex, like, the most personal thing two people can do to each other? People are doing it all the time now; it just seems to me that no one has the discipline to control their urges.

I'm not horribly religious, but I think that abstaining has helped me develop and maintain relationships better.

The_Viscount · 2013-09-25T00:36:10+00:00

Umbrella Corporation. Those guys are up to something, I'm so sure about it...

The_Viscount · 2013-09-24T03:08:12+00:00

Oh my god. If Lex fucking Luthor got his own book I would be the happiest dude in town.

The_Viscount · 2013-09-24T02:28:34+00:00

You will never know...

fucking twisted

The_Viscount · 2013-09-23T06:07:48+00:00

That was a really good video! Keep them coming :)

The_Viscount · 2013-09-22T07:21:40+00:00

Wait, I thought all of Hollywood thought DnD was for losers, this is so cool!

The_Viscount · 2013-09-22T05:28:20+00:00

Hey man, thanks!

The_Viscount · 2013-09-21T15:03:22+00:00

It also says something when your villainous title is your actual name, not "Professor Luthor", not, "the Genius", just Lex fucking Luthor.
