we just mostly finished our warehouse move at work
meaning no more 60 hour weeks for me
Come hang with me
be bros
let's do this. when is good that's not tomorrow or the 22nd
omg finally
We do run into the issue that with electro on Saturdays I tend to feel super shitty, both physically and appearance wise
Unless you are driving ALL THE WAY HERE, maybe a Friday would work best?
Friday would have to be a night thing since I work the old 9-5 so I wouldn't be up there til like 8:00 or so. weekends are best because I don't have to work them now
but we can figure this out
Yeah I wanna get something on the books, I just have electro the next three weeks followed by HALLOWEEN and unless you're ok sitting at a cafe or whatever with someone in full blown skull makeup, probably not the best weekend
as much as I would be totally happy to do that on a random Wednesday in April I'll be at a Halloween party on actual Halloween weekend
maybe a weekend in November will work?
Damn
I was kind of hoping you'd go for it >.>
Yeah November works for me. First weekend?
so it shall be written
Allegedly a voice of reason.

but still, all the money to develop AAA games isn't just because the resolutions are high and there's great ambient occlusion. The games themselves are big.
If there was some easy way to make the big bucks without having to spend all the money and employ half an army, they'd all be doing it already.
Not necessarily. Businesses do all sorts of dumb, short sighted shit for various reasons besides logic that makes sense in the real world.
Businesses, sure, but not an entire industry. If there was One Small Trick to making vasts sums of money off of games without much investment, besides stumbling onto the next big thing, also known as blind fucking luck, somebody would have found it.
But anyway: which game is the most popular isn't very important. How much money it makes, is.
This isn't necessarily true. Entire industries can be horribly, wickedly wrong, like doctors about hand washing until some time after they destroyed the guy who said they could save lives by washing their hands inbetween handling corpses and live patients.
Also, video games has inumerable examples of extremely high profit lower tech games. See: Every Nintendo title, Minecraft, the billion dollar franchise that has captured an entire generation, and that's before going into any number of other titles.
Also, popularity and profitability are reasonably closely linked. If I had a dollar for every time people said "Well, DOTA 2 is a loss leader cause Steam," I'd have 1% of the amount of money that Valve's capture Djinn ejaculates out of its spirit cock every minute.
and because the plan was for more fanciful guns for the others as well
EDIT: Ignore the logo on these, 21st pointed out how abstergo like it is and I made a stylized F logo that I like much more too I just haven't applied it to this
My favorite WWII story is still that dude who ripped a mounted machine gun off of whatever it was fixed to and carried it into the fight.
He didn't know it, but he pretty much invented the first person shooter genre.
I think you're talking about Audie Murphy. He ordered his men to retreat back into a woods and fought a delaying action, engaging with his carbine and calling for artillery. Then he mounted a burning tank destroyer and used it's machine gun to engage the Germans. He got shot, kept killing Germans. Ran out of ammo and retreated back to the woods. Where he rallied his unit and launched a counter-attack. He got the Medal of Honor and for it. He was the most decorated solider in US history.
He's also kind of a big deal because he had PTSD. And him speaking out was influential for making the DoD recognize it because he was one of the few people the Army couldn't call him a coward.

I told autocorrect that I meant sci fi and not sci if like eight times and I guess it just overruled me

Just like that time I flanked an entire squad of Mormons in the paintball field.
I made a game! Hotline Maui. Requires mouse and keyboard.

Didn't he also join like waaaaay under-aged as well?
And starred in a bunch of movies about WWII?

ok i'm done the second hyperion book and it was only about a third as good as the first, so i'm probably not gonna read the next one.
what should i read next
The next two books in the Hyperion cantos are garbage. They are just crazy shit about love as quantum magic and Jesus as a time traveling compassion entity. Awful.
You should read the Culture series, starting with Use of Weapons.

I don't think he was underaged, just tiny as fuck.
He did star in a movie about himself, which they toned down, because they felt the reality would seem too ridiculous.

He was a year underage when he joined. And he had an acting career, including one film based on his life story. The famous story is he told the director to tone down some elements because he didn't think people would believe it.

its awesome?
I got a really thick hardcover book, took a few steps towards it, and just dropped it on the fucker.
Then I waited an entire day before picking it up just to be sure.

Chanus no, its the beer. There are better.
I have killed spiders this way before.
I recommend chemistry textbooks. They are laden with bullshit and even spiders cannot survive.
so it shall be written
Me too but fuck getting any certs required to actually produce one.
Mostly because of the type of people I'd have to come into contact with.
I look askance at you now
It is done. The pact is sealed.

isn't that basically just giving mosquitos a free pass
Texas is basically the US's Australia
today was actually leg day
lots o squats
so yes
I'm not saying there aren't better
Please have all the parts be pretentious imagery and if a gun is made of 3 parts have every one be a haiku when you put the 3 parts together
I don't get a lot of mosquitos inside my house, and when I do I take it upon myself to kill them.
Spiders which enter my domain must die. Outside spiders can do whatever the feck they want.
I have several arachnid roommates for this reason
Biological warfare motherfuckers
eat all the moths and mosquitos you want spider
just stay the fuck outside
me coming up with as many ideas as I can before rejected harebrained or ugly ones
if I was gonna use what I'm gonna call the three lined look I'd retool the bottom thing to be something. Rail supporting the handguard or something.
what should i read next
How about a Discworld book.
waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat?????
omg @cB557
