    In Potions - A Curious Tale, Crafting is the Essence of Combat

    Are you able to elaborate at all on the art style? I've seen the same complaint from a few people and I'd really like to better understand the problems.

    Your over powered binding of issac: rebirth runs.

    I got some pretty big tears once: From earlier in the same run showing all the tear effects in action [http://i.imgur.com/MIviKfj.gifv] (Warning, excessively large gif)

    Digital artists, I need a second opinion

    If you're used to CS1, and had no issues with it, why not download CS2 now that it's free? (Completely legal. You can get directly from Adobe, you just need to set up an account.) Not as big an upgrade as CS6, but a heck of a lot cheaper. I disagree. I used Photoshop Elements 5 as my program...

    8 Underrated Hearthstone Cards

    Even if you can pull off that combo flawlessly, aren't you just using 3 cards to play a slightly buffed Magma Rager?

    I have £50 and I wish to do good with it.

    Rather than giving it to a homeless person directly, how about spending it on some basic supplies and giving them those? Stuff like: toilet paper, wet wipes, a toothbrush & toothpaste, a handheld mirror, some sturdy resealable bags, extra socks, blankets, razors, deodorant etc are all pretty...

    Talents you wish you had.

    100 pages in 2nd grade? That's dedication I'm sure I didn't have at that age. Talents I have: I can draw. I used to have a knack for climbing. Talents I'd like: To be a decent cook. To be able to speak a second language (7 years of French, 2 years of German, and a year of Latin all fell...

    Ellen Page Nudity in Beyond: Two Souls Triggers Aggressive Sony Response

    I don't understand why this is a big deal. I don't see how the character being naked has any bearing on the voice actress playing her, besides the fact that they look similar. It'd be like Andy Serkis getting upset over whatever Weta digital may or may not have rendered under Gollum's loincloth.

    Terraria 2 Is In Development

    You could always make a separate world and trigger hardmode there. It'd be a shame to skip it entirely, that's where the bulk of the new content is.

    Dislocated Elbows

    I dislocated my wrist just over a month ago. Broke two of the bone in a nasty fall. I didn't pass out, but I came close. My vision went blurry to the point of near blindness and I was very nauseous for a while. I'm only a week into my physiotherapy now so I doubt I have any wisdom to share that...

    Superpower Lottery - Making Money

    http://powerlisting.wikia.com/wiki/Space-Time_Migration I got space-time migration. Sorry but that's just too well suited to bank robbery. Since the goal is to be creative however; I guess I'd set up a one man delivery service. Free international shipping in seconds.

    Indie Dev Asks Whether $100,000 Is Enough To Make A Game

    FTL was almost done before it went up on kickstarter. That $10,000 was to finish the game and add more content, not to build it from scratch.

    Poll: Would you consider yourself a regular here on the escapist?

    Recognised? No Active? Depends on your definition. I don't post much, but I've been lurking fairly actively for a while now.
