    Poll: Your presence on the Escapist.

    See that post count? I've worked hard to keep it that low. Yeah, that's right. You don't know me. I don't know me either.

    Zero Punctuation: Lichdom: Battlemage

    You can try to combine Yu-Gi-Oh cards in the game to make a stronger strategy, but the combinations just end up being weaker than the new cards the non-existent R&D halfwits working at Konami keep churning out you keep getting? Sounds just like Yu-Gi-Oh actually. Completely fitting.

    Capcom Pulls Marvel vs. Capcom From Digital Stores

    This is probably a licensing issue. The same thing happened with Tatsunoku vs. Capcom in 2012.

    Why Metal Gear Rising was Awful.

    I don't think I've ever seen such blatant argumentum ad nauseam in an Escapist thread before. However, Obscure_Reference posted everything I could ever need to say on this subject. So, I'm just going to add my subjective opinion on some matters. I hate Street Fighter. I love God Hand and...

    Pacific Rim Beaten by Adam Sandler at Box Office

    Truly this is going to be what makes me have my existential crisis, and proclaim that I'm utterly disappointed in my species. The Box-Office results. The world must hear me baww from the top of my roof. On topic, I agree with the guy whose post is above mine. An action-movie with a terrible...

    Well Square, you finally did it... you killed Final Fantasy (A Rant)

    The character designs actually look kind of cool IMO. Admittedly, I have no knowledge of FF XV at all, so I dunno if the game will be any good, but compared to Snow, none of these guys look Douche-y. I am also eagerly awaiting FF XIV: The Good Edition.

    Is ganking girl gamers a bad thing?

    This is the main reason I post like I'm defending the guy, when I'm really not. Ganking happens to everyone, and it bugs me that it's been sensationalized, only because some guy made a video saying he only ganks females. Bah. There's a lot more interesting stories from WoW than this. I don't...

    Is ganking girl gamers a bad thing?

    Ganking isn't against the rules. Annoying? Yeah. But it's not considered griefing. If anything, it's encouraged. I am convinced the video is a joke. The part about common girl gamer spots is literally full of things that every WoW player does. If you're griefed, call your guild, friends...

    Nintendo Suddenly Claims Ownership Of Many YouTube Videos

    Morality =/= PR. Just because something seems like bad PR doesn't make Nintendo the devil. Here are your limitations on Fair Use: http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#107 Fair Use is generally determined on a case by case basis. You can't just hit one of these things, you have to...

    What games do women play?

    My sister plays every game that I play. I play games of every genre. I dare say she plays more games than I do. She plays World Of Warcraft the most though. She's only a couple years younger than me too. when I asked her, she said three games played most recently are WOW, 7th Saga, and LoZ...

    Let's Watch Another Man Of Steel Trailer

    That was really cool. I wasn't too excited for this before, but now I really am. Am I the only one who got a Sting as Feyd-Rautha vibe from Michael Shannon's "I will find him!"?

    Games Where The Only Way To Win...Is To Lose?

    Murakumo. The only way to win is to not play the game in the first place. Oh, you mean losing in game, as opposed to losing in real life well-being. Murakumo again, the only way to win is to spend all of your mechs replaying the same level over and over so you can memorize the path of...

    RoosterTeeth has gone anime (new series called RWBY)

    It's true that when making a series animators need to cut corners like mad, but, in all fairness to the cynics, this is a trailer and it needs to look good. It's a bit like judging an anime by the opening [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ActionHoggingOpening]. That being said, I...

    Can you beat him? Akinator Web game

    This is pretty cool. It managed to get about 3 of my characters but then I beat it with thinking about Sonia from Ninja Gaiden 2. Though it got close by the end by guessing Rachel instead. Edit: A good way to win is to think of an obscure Tokusatsu character.

    Screw the Class System

    The idea of removing class is a novel one, but one that is possibly more trouble than it's worth. In MMOs it probably wouldn't make them better, considering in an MMO it is necessary to group up to make up for a classes shortcomings. Not to mention what would happen to PvP. Dear god. They can...
