    Poll: Is man inherently good, or Evil?

    Pretty much this. Good and evil are terms generated by society that have virtually no meaning. Good usually consists of things society would like it if you would do, while evil consists of things you will be punished for. There is absolutely no evidence that good or evil extend beyond what the...

    What's the hardest boss fight that you've recently played?

    Although the amount of health he has in TVHM is rediculous (assuming you're not playing high level Zer0) and he does have a few cheap throw you up in the air into the lava moves if you're stood in the wrong place. Can be very frustrating if you are soloing him. OT: hmmm Ornstein and Smough...

    Things you WISH you could brag about, but you know no one cares about.

    Me too, maybe we should make some sort of uber-cool exclusive club :P

    Mass Effect 4 Will Not Feature Shepard or "Shepard 2"

    I totally agree on this, but I feel that Bioware could potentially close most of the remaining plot holes with some well crafted DLC. Of course, that's assuming Bioware A: in anyway can/will acknowledge that there are plot holes or B: actually care what the fans think. I don't really want to...

    What If a Fantasy Game Took Place In the Modern Day

    I'd personally prefer one in a wild west type setting - magic type abilities could be tied into red indian tribes, and you could have monster roaming the wilderness. Plus, melee type weapons were still used up to a point so it wouldn't feel like trying to shoehorn features into a setting quite...

    "Good" Game = "I Like this Game"?

    I agree with this principle of this Objectively good does not equal subjectively good The X3 games are good at what they do, and I'm told their mechanics are very solid. Yet I do not enjoy them. Conversely I love virtually all of the Resident Evil games despite their dodgy controls...

    Easy songs to learn on guitar?

    Highway to hell by AC/DC is a pretty straightforward one. The solo is pretty simple too. All using slight variations of basic chords. Paranoid by Black Sabbath isnt a bad place to start either with the more metal side of things, but the 3rd lick of the solo can be pretty tough to the hands...

    If you could...

    Haha, yeah. I would just like to see some strong games using slightly unconventional settings. I thought wild west maybe because I have never seen it depicted outside of games attempting to clutch to some sort of realism - rather than just using it as a time period (see cowboys and aliens film)...

    If you could...

    I'd quite like to see an RPG set in an alternative version of the wild west where dinosaur like monsters were present in the wilderness. Maybe there should be some sort of primitive robots too. Have detailed skill trees with guns, close combat and maybe some sort of 'plasmid' type magic...

    Incest?

    As a geneticist I thought I would add an amusing tipbit to this. If your parents are brother and sister, then it is technically possible for you to have the exact same DNA as a single on of your grandparents and therefore functionally be a clone of them. In practice this is virtually...

    Hello Escapists! And Possibly An Unpopular Opinion

    I'm being a little unfair here, but if you get to grandmaster (=D) the counters become pretty soft again and I feel like the rigidty of the build orders mainly comes from having such a competitive pro lever that even the people right at the beginning have access to plans for how to play the game...

    Hello Escapists! And Possibly An Unpopular Opinion

    Yeah I do see how build orders are going to be important, it's definitely a good point. Just seems SC2 is more reliant on very rigid build orders than most. It could be because it feels so rush heavy and turtling is a joke, so perhaps that has something to do with it. I think perhaps some...

    Hello Escapists! And Possibly An Unpopular Opinion

    Wow, many replies. I did expect this thread to disappear into obscurity within about 5 minutes, so yeah I am pleasantly surprised. Hopefully I did that right... I'm a big Supreme Commander fan - love both FA and 2 (apparently that's heresy to most people :P), I love COH, SOASE, W:EE and...

    Hello Escapists! And Possibly An Unpopular Opinion

    So, I recently signed up here and thought I would say 'hey' to people. I guess this ended up becoming a new topic because it seemed a good way to start, rather than jump in on topic with my first post. While I am here though I do have something I'd like to get some opinions on. I'm a really...
