Dread just seems kind of clumsy to me. I see the reasoning behind it, and the idea is fun, but I don't think there is anything meaty enough there to bother with it in practise.
Well sure when you cut away a lot of the number crunching elements of an RPG you're going to get something that's a lot lighter and fluffier to play. The trade off is that you can get into a game much quicker, and the tone of the game is a lot different. Your character is easier to kill, and as the tension builds in the game the player actually feels it. It's a much more immersive experience.
So I guess it's not as meaty? That's not exactly a bad thing in this case. I guess it depends on why you play, and what you enjoy about playing.
which is the exact fucking same thing, only for source
I liked dust better than dust2. Especially before they put in those fucking riot shields. Man CS was a great fucking game. CoD was pretty good too. Wonder what happened to CAL-O and all that shit, looks like they stopped doing it?

Yes? Because otherwise it's yahtzee, and that game sucks.

I still prefer Dread over D&D. It focuses on my favourite parts of an RPG. And the pacing isn't ever punctuated by someone consulting the rulebook or comparing dice rolls.

I've only played CS like once during a LAN and I bitched about it incessantly. It was my understanding that Quake or Unreal would be the games of choice but one of the guys had a bitch computer so we were stuck with CS.
Due to other reasons I was banned from attending that LAN group again.

gaming mouse recommendations on the cheap
god help me i will make an h/a thread about it
And it has a shiny neon blue light.
EDIT: Mouse I got was a Razer Deathadder for £40.
If I ever meet you I'm just going to refer to you as "cutie patootie" the entire time
and make your girlfriend extremely uncomfortable
And dice rolling does?
trust me it won't make her uncomfortable; if anything she will engage in the mockery herself
God, who plays yahtzee. Ugh.
i am looking for something a bit cheaper, but along those general lines
should have stayed in bed maybe
I'm glad you agree.
The cart goes on the other side of the horse.
what, because I'm not all oooooh what horror, how deathly still they lie
dead birds are just dead birds
jesus
Yes, that would be the joke.
wanna work for me today
at my job
just pretend you are me
im still in bed
waiting for the mac client of LoL to update!
Dice pool games tend towards that. I have a nice character generation program if you want it.
it works surprisingly well for me
but you have to update a certificate otherwise it won't connect to pvp.net
let me know if you have that problem and i'll tell you how to fix it
There's the Abyssus if we stick to Razer mice. Not as many buttons, but price is £32.
Other than that Logitech are usually quite cheap.
nice, is that completely new?

I mean, I have always bought Logitech stuff because it was cheap, but are they actually worth it?
like 80% of my computer peripherals are logitech
thanks!
Dead birds are kinda cool.
nah, i tried that one out and it doesn't really fit my hand very well
