definitely got me emotionally invested in the characters
I feel like Sera desperately needs Robin williams to repeat "it's not your fault" over and over to her
i dislike her a whole lot
what an unpleasant character
What did you think of Vivienne, Will?
I'm just curious if you'll buck the trends twice over, because so far I have only heard about people liking Sera and I have only heard of people disliking Vivienne.
what is there to like about sera? that she likes the common man? she just wants to fuck with everyone like some derpy harley quinn with a bad accent.
vivienne is the worst because she is so condescending but hey i'm pretty sure i'm the hero here, lady
She's had a fucked up upbringing and made it to a level of notoriety and still cares mostly about commoners when she could get a job as a nightingale or bard like Leliana
she's not an anarchist either, despite initial impressions, the more you talk with her the better she is
basically the entire world Dragon Age is set in is completely horrible and none of the factions are good and Sera seems to be the only one who recognizes that
Its why Catcher in the Rye is awesome. You read it as a teenager and think he's understandably angsty and just misunderstood and you read it as an adult and go lol I was such an idiot
When I read it as a teen I was very bored with it. It felt like nothing worth remembering ever happened in it and that the book didn't say much of anything.
I made a game! Hotline Maui. Requires mouse and keyboard.

i find vivienne really unpleasant too. she's so goddamned snotty and rude all the time for no reason.
usually i run with cole, dorian and either solas or cassandra. sometimes i swap in sera until i get sick of her.
I am still running with Solas, Cass and Varric because they are still fun. Solas and Varric have lots of neat exchanges.

Let's play Mario Kart or something...
I haven't played DA:I but I imagine myself loathing sera the same way we're all good-naturedly mocking the angsty ragey teen archetype, and loving vivienne
i imagine this is the same jack/miranda situation
No. Jack was obnoxious. Miranda was p cool. Sera is entertaining sometimes but frequently too much. Viv is BLEGH.

It's p fun but I forgot it's semi real time? I'd prefer it to be completely turn based. This whole dancing around in a circle rote dexterity test grows tiresome
But that is how EoB and MoM are, and they are the pinnacle of Blob combat, imo. Even better than Wizardry (Wizardry is better in other ways like character building).
Wizardry seems lie it would drive you insane with party building
It did! I never got more than maybe 30 or 40 hours into any of them. Could not stop rerolling.
I literally spend most of my time walking places or doing things that don't involve thought thinking about RPG characters and parties when I am playing a game. Spent so much time thinking through IWD party.
Incidentally, this is what makes me good at my job.

Also please don't say "horny tumblr girls" like maybe it's a silly thing?
Participating in a community, liking something, having a libido and being female are none of them bad or silly things.
(sorry if I am being oversensitive it's just "like a girl" is used as such a synonym for "being ridiculous" and it gets old)
Sorry, but using tumblr is objectively a bad thing.
Then I guess you'll never get to see any of my better art
Or like
more importantly
Hella cool sketches by Claire Keane that she doesn't put anywhere else
Stuff that Kate Leth doodles in her spare time
Alternatively most of the rallycross preparation outfits will build something that will crack that kind of time. Olsbergs does Ken Block's Fords, for example: http://www.omse.se/
Those are all sub 3 second cars. Sub 2 is really only drag racers and F1 cars
That's why I said "to even approach 2 seconds".
Rallycross cars will also pull 2 second 0-60s, and be marginally more practical than a drag car or a single seater. Kenneth Hansen's Citroen Xsara T16 famously did 0-100-0 in a hair under 11 seconds. On gravel.
Everything is more practical then a car set up for drag racing.
This guy lives a few miles up the road, his build thread is on pistonheads.
There is some contention over the title of "fastest road legal drag car" given that RV3 runs on different fuel and tyres for road use, and there's a team in the US claiming the same title because the state they happen to be in permits grooved drag tyres (which are not road legal in the UK) for road use, so technically they can drive the car to the strip in full race trim, which can't be done in RV3.

Everyone should always apologize for liking things too much, because it is shameful and unsophisticated
Only by shellacking yourself with disaffection and remaining distant and uncommitted can you earn the respect of the only people whose regard is worthwhile, i.e. the disaffected, distant and uncommitted
also careful curation of the things you advocate - only the most defensibly tasteful precious things should you show to the world.
I want this new protagonist to be the first Storm trooper who can actually shoot the side of a barn because I presumed all the OT storm troopers were like, lower class British dudes since everyone else in the empire is British
And then if this guy is a badass it's like
:cool: should have hired some brothers as your troopers all along guys :cool:
I don't understand what justification any one has to be upset about the black storm trooper. Because there are definitely black people in star wars.
So. . .Uh what is the justification for that racism.
There are some corners of the net who:
1) thought all the storm troopers were still (D)Jango.
2) thought the empire was racist instead of simply pro-human, largely xenophobic.
Okay but both of these things are wrong.
So. Not only are these people thinly veiled racist but they are also bad at knowing Star Wars.
Daaaaaamn. Sucks to suck. But I hope they continue vocalizing their idiocy because it's hilarious.
How is it thinly veiled racism exactly?
you...have to really want to believe it is?

I wonder how few people are going to care that Will Smith is playing Deadshot.
So few. I think we're just glad that Suicide Squad is making it to the big screen.
(I love suicide squad)
I love them too, but Deadshot isn't really a character you empathize with or want to model yourself after. Whereas I suspect there is a certain amount of people who perhaps don't see the Imperial Stormtroopers that villainous.

ahhhhhhhhhhhh the one year I have money. THE ONE YEAR.
you could probably find a couch to crash on. if i had a giant house and a wife that was a little more nerd-tolerant then i'd put everyone up.
there are a good number of people who either don't go to the convention or else borrow a badge for a little while. i only think i went one day last year.
