God damnit, stop psychic-hurling hips at me! (STALKER THREAD)

Sgt EversmanSgt Eversman Registered User regular
edited April 2007 in Social Entropy++
So I'm in the midst of going through stalker, and its fun, but I had to stop and laugh at this point where some sort of demon with telekinetic abilities has begun to harass me by throwing human skeletal remains through the air at me.

For a second, I was just really confused as I saw the complete hip of a skeleton levitate 8 feet in the air, staring at it like an idiot

before it proceeded to hit me in the fucking face.

Mother fuck! Fuck you, psychic demon! Fuck you for using your abilities to hit me with a hip.

You are a dick.

    this indian guy at uni was telling me how this girl stalked him last year
    like she was in his group of friends and had a crush on him and something something sent him 50 handwritten letters and some other stuff
    maybe calling all the time
    the usual

    i wasnt friends with him then so unfortunately i missed all of it
    and a few weeks ago they confronted her and told her not to hang around them anymore
    so now she is kicked out of the indian group at uni just as i am edging my way in
    the indians stick together so in lectures its they are together and then she is sitting away somewhere else, maybe with this other guy who they dont like for some reason

    in a corner there is the fucking scary looking sikh who wears full blue or orange kurtas and has blades and shit in his turban
    scariest dude in the world

    Game: Here is the keycode for this door. Go open it.

    Me: Okay

    *walks towards door*

    *BANG*

    Me: What in the hell?

    ...

    *BANG*

    Me: Is...is that thousand-pound door being slammed against by a creature with enough force to pry it from the hinges?

    ...

    *BANG*

    Me: Yeah.....fuck that.

    Seriously, I was expecting stories of being a stalker/stalkee from people. All calling then leaving a voice message of heavy breathing, carving her name on your chest, waiting outside the bushes of her house, getting slapped with a restraining order, etc etc

    ive never really been much in with indian groups. but after knowing these dudes for just a few weeks i am seeing that real life for these guys is often overdramatic and absurd
    and here i was thinking indian movies were a bit over the top


    oh but shit i just remembered being at some indian house party when i was a kid
    one of those ones your parents drag you to and all the under 25 year olds are segregated together and you have maybe met one or 2 of the people before
    and some kid was threatening to commit suicide over a girl, who he possibly just met at this party
    i didnt know what that meant and thought it had something to do with going down into the sewers across the street

    this was in the days of teenage mutant ninja turtles


    damn i shoulda stuck with those guys more
    so wacky

    at first it looks like maybe he just dresses a bit too traditional for uni
    which is okay i have seen those clothes many times and them a few times myself though not as bright as his, and with the exception of the turban

    but then you see that it includes a bunch of decorative blades all around his head
    and apparently attempts to talk to him were just straight up ignored, or somethin like that.

    so i think i may keep my distance




    also hes kinda tall

    Thats the engine trying to run dx9 lighting effects, which are so poorly coded I can't even begin to tell you. (doesn't even allow for AA FFS)

    Run the game in "static lighting" aka dx8.1. I'm getting 50+fps running at 1600x1200 and 4xaa with an old x850XT

    Not that bad actually.
    Infact it's darker and different than Dynamic Lighting.
    It kinda fits the atmosphere better.
    It gives me the big O.

    Man, Dynamic Lighting is a lot more atmospheric, though. I wish I could run it with NPCs around, because it's really awesome, especially in a thunderstorm.
