Its interesting, i was having a discussion with some friends about early access as a concept and we came to two conclusions. One that buyer beware has never been more appropriate with early access games. Two; early access can give developers insights into what their market wants as they develop...

By your logic, again, it would be fine to kill people that get in your way/annoy you because A; we're just animals too and B; it doesn't "significantly reduce their numbers" because there's billions of us and we live long enough to breed multiple times and infant mortality is pretty low among...

I struggled not to respond to this, but screw it. why do you only worship one norse god and not the whole pantheon? And how exactly do you "worship" it beyond not killings spiders?

get over your fear you big wuss and stop being a murderer. You are already halfway there on the idea, just catch them and put them outdoors where you don't mind them! Also this idea that spiders only right to existence is their "uses" to us is just wrong. They have a right to life because...

REAL men keep spiders as pets, they don't smash them. By your logic i could kill you because i find you annoying. OF course this doesn't count as a death threat because you and people with your shitty attitude are simply not worth the effort. If you even bothered to educate yourself you...

Short answer; No & if it made you feel bad then you have already answered your own question. Long answer - It's really wrong to do stuff like this - I'm an arachnophobe too, but im trying to cope with my irrational fear. The fact is spiders have been around for fucking ages, way, way longer...

here's some criticism :D When acting in a comedy sketch it's important not to be smiling. EDIT - and is that the script up on the monitor?

On this issue what about the mutated Kerrigan from the starcraft series? Although the initial Kerrigan was flirty and attractive, the mutated one could hardly be called conventionally attractive and her actions certainly put her in the "villain" side of the spectrum. She's also a playable...

Smeatza, Although i stand by your opinion that character creation and increased variation thereof would enhance certain game genres (such as RPG and sandbox) your statement that it would improve all games seems wrong. The point i made about the marvel characters in comics is that they define...

What about resident evil? You can play as a male or female, with no disadvantages for being either - each was equally capable and neither were objectified or overly idealised. Did the game suffer because their sexuality didn't incorporate the entire spectrum? No. Did it suffer because it didn't...

Why not go a step further and say every game down to it's content should be customisable by the player? Because 9 times out of 10 it would suck. How would classic games (like alex the kid, mega man or metroid) have become popular without characters that were pre-created for the player? As...

Popular culture assumes that aliens would be more advanced than us because big, cool spaceships and space guns are more entertaining. As you lean towards the factual side of the speculation, things become far less entertaining for games or the big screen. No-one that's interested in actual...

that's not really anything to do with the topic of the thread, and of all the things i said you definitely picked an odd thing to comment on but, since you did... i never drank the drinks, or condone workplace drinking, i was using allegory to highlight the problems in a tipping culture.

Wow, this topic has gone into a 9-page debate... Time to add my 2 cents! If no-one has mentioned this already it needs to be mentioned and it bears repeating anyway. TIPS literally translates into: To.Insure.Proper.Service TIPS doesn't actually mean "reward great service", nor is it...

thanks mr spellcheck, but it seemed we all knew what we were talking about despite minor typos. Now have you got anything actually useful to add to the debate?
