So you are not a stereotype. Good for you. Most nerds aren't. And those that are tend to be extremes. However, I do have to ask, how can one be bad at D & D? It's a role playing game.... there is no actual competition or scoring. If you are bad at it, methinks you are playing with a bad DM...

Oh they do, but it's neigh unplayable. There is a reason why first person is the default in both games. Even the devs described it as vanity cam, and certainly videos use it to show off equipment. But it's a good point, try playing New Vegas in first and third person. It's obvious that third...

First person is more immersive, in my experience. This is not a matter of preference to a specific genre or game type. Writing, world design, characters etc play a huge role, and the most immersive games in my experience, like Planescape or Mass Effect were not first person, simply because the...

Personally, if it's armor, it SHOULD be armor. With very rare exceptions like extremely zany(like Kill la Kill) or comedic settings, most fantasy, even the high kind, atleast TRIES to approximate reality in a basic sense. Hence why male armor is almost always protective. Thus, the whole...

Meh, it would just be awkward at this point, and frankly a little insulting, but I'd be ok with it for their sake. I won't pretend that bulling at my younger years did not affect my life negatively, but I also don't particularly place the blame on bullies. They are an external factor I could...

Please dont go with Mithos Yggdrasil. Just dont do it. Aside from the sheer silliness of being essentially called "Legend: Tree of Life", which sounds like a terrible video game name, there is also the issue of cultural appropriation. You do realize Yggdrasil is actually a really core part of...

The only thing more ravenous than a 40K fan is an ex-40k fan. GW alienated a LOT of people who kept trying to take the game itself in a serious tournament style direction. Which obviously does not work in a game with so many factions/units/special rules, and GW does not particularly try. Which I...

Ok I have to chip in here cause this is really getting annoying. How is having an acitve sex life equeate to fuckign around randomly with strangers? Really? So either I have no sex until I find the perfect someone and join the purity master race, or I am a raging manwhore out for anything with...

I think there is also a lot to be said about contrast. Drama in adventure time is far more effective than, say, mad men, simply because it contrasts so much with the show's usual tone. Our generation's preconceptions of cartoons as lighthearted comedy only also work in it's favor, in that...

I think people have somewhat missed the point here. The issue isn't really that the booth babe ladies themselves are actually abused. That's patently untrue, they get payed for a modeling job like any other. Fairly well too, as far as I know. Neither is it really that sexy ladies are somehow...

Seriously, I am shocked that all of you are handed godhood and choose to just get money out of it. Where is the ambition? I would propably start with making myself insanely rich with Lotto numbers, making sure to not change history too much doing it, cause I need it to be predicable for the...

Gonna say Skyrim, not because it's the best game ever or anything, but simply because it's massively expansive, and with mods its the game most likely to provide the most variety, even if it's the only game left in the world.

I love how all of you are so special and unique and all, but are just held back. I am sure it's very comforting. Does it not surprise anyone that apparently everyone here thinks they are slightly above average intelligence? Is the escapist some sort of bright beacon of intelligence, gathering up...

Slow and Powerful any time. Cause in real life, if two opponents are both good, the bigger one almost always wins. Also in gaming, being able to oneshot opponents with a slow swing is always more efficient than having to hit them multiple times, even if you could kill them equally...

I think the demonetization of Scientists as another form of random joe with opinions, or even worse, as some sort of cult or religious group, is particularly galling in this case simply because Evolution is NOT really a difficult scientific concept. This ain't quantum physics guys. This is a...
