    The nemesis system in Shadow of Mordor is bananas!!

    I have a story to add, one of an orc I've taken to calling Mr. Frog-Lips. He's actually called something Frog-Blood, but I can never remember his name. Anyway, he tended to favour poisoned throwing spears that dealt quite a bit of damage. Coupled with the poison, they got me to within one hit of...

    Recommend me some REALLY BAD games.

    Speaking of games LRR did an LP of, there's one they played called Cursed Crusade for the PS3. Seemed pretty terrible. With checkpoints too far and few between and combat quickly becoming a massive slogfest, every death became almost tear inducing for me and I wasn't even playing it. Not only...

    Dark Souls II Was "Unplayable" Before Graphics Downgrade

    I figured Dark Souls 2 gets a free pass because the graphical fidelity isn't one of it's major selling points, whereas something like Watch Dogs gets lambasted because they made a point of hyping up the graphics.

    Is my funding scheme even possible?

    I know of a game called Postmortem: One Must Die. There's a free version on it's site and then a paid version on Steam that you can buy to support the dev. The paid version also comes with a few bonus things (concept art, sprites, wallpapers) but the only reason it seems to buy it and indeed the...

    I'm finally gonna play Dark Souls...advice?

    The one piece of advice I can give is try and not get angry when you die. In a lot of games these days you don't die very often and as such people go from playing those games to this one and get really angry when they die so often. You will die and you will probably die a lot. As a result of...

    Poll: Fallout: New Vegas help/opinions/suggestions?

    Wall of Text Incoming For the DLC missions, I found each one had it's own "point," so to speak. Lonely Hearts took place in what I considered to be a very beautiful environment and I enjoyed the change of scenery. I enjoyed Dead Money for it's seemingly "survival horror" angle. It was...

    Poll: Escapists: What did you score on the ACT/SAT?

    In South Australia we have the SACE tests, which give an ATAR score out of 99.95. I got a 96 and graduated Dux of my class. Pretty happy with that achievement

    Eye-rolling-ly Stupid Deaths in Games

    Far Cry 3, just after Citra tells me to make sure I come back. I run straight for the edge of the pillar we were on and jump into the ocean ... To be met by a face full of rocks

    Your phobia(s)?

    Don't know the name of them, but there are two things that I worry about. Number one, I tend to be uncomfortable talking to people I don't know, to the point where even posting here is pushing my comfort zone. The second one is sort of along the same lines as aba1's aforementioned fear of...

    So I Finally Bought Borderlands

    To the OP, if you plan on using Zer0 they aren't a huge problem. His Decepti0n skill lets you see them even if they are cloaked. Add this to the Execute and Many Must Fall abilities in his Bloodshed skill tree and you can make short work of them, although this approach requires a focus on melee...

    what song made you get into listening to music

    AC/DC, Thunderstruck did it for me. It was the version from their album AC/DC Live. That made me buy that album, then any other AC/DC album I could get my hands on. Listening to it made me want to play guitar, which caused me to start doing research. This revealed that Angus Young, the guitarist...
