Mine is a laptop. I usually just plan to build a desktop, but never overcome my own cheapness, so I neither buy nor build it :P I had a Nokia 1100 until last year. Only switched to a N8-00 because my circle pretty much became over reliant on WhatsApp, so I had a few bridges burnt if I didn't...

Me too. But hey, if it has anything to do with HP in my case, I wouldn't be surprised. It was my worst buy ever. And throw a kiss to the camera every now and then, of course.

@Stone Cold Robert House, I'd love to link to your answer everytime the subjects comes up. Really, you are extraordinarily good at writing well-structured thoughts and making them clear.

Yes, you can, but it's opt-out. WRT derivatives, depends on the particular case. If it uses Unity, chances are it spies on you by default, if it doesn't, chances are it doesn't spy on you. WRT Mint, AFAIK most polls still say Ubuntu is the most popular one. I actually came accross only ONE...

I've read up to half of page two, and then the mini-Beth-fanboy inside of me got bored. I thought of mentioning, as a passionate Linux user I am, that privacy and Linux is half a truth. Why? Because most people mean Ubuntu when they say Linux, and Ubuntu, through the scope lens in Unity...

I recall doing it in a similar way, but instead of being inside with them, I'd lock them inside and shoot them through the windows.

To be fair, it was probably just easier to model the world in isometric turn-based than it is in real-time 3D, and that is reflecting on the AI. Which would lead us instead to the question: if they couldn't make it better, why did they change it?

There's also the consumption oriented market. You don't want a game that ages well, you want a game that is hot for a season, and you want them to buy the next shiny new thing the next season. And that's far easier to achieve if all games focus on things that develop quickly. Narrative isn't one...

Isn't that Fallout 3?

He said he needed some time away, so he probably auto-banned himself for this given time to make it easier not to come.

There's also the matter that one shouldn't necessarily exclude the other. In Mount & Blade (not really an RPG, at least not fully, but it doesn't matter), for example, you do have points at level up to assign to weapon proficiencies, but you *also* get points for effectively using it (although...

But where would you draw the line? Do you actually make several repair skills? Because it's probably not the same fixing a car, a nuclear reactor, an energy plant, a leather jacker, a gun, a power armor, etc. If we aim for realism, we should take this into account. If we say "it doesn't make...

I found the treasure of Melee Island and all I got is this stupid t-shirt.

I hope you meant malfunctioning. GECKs aren't living beings, they can't "mutate".

I knew someone would catch the reference. Now, on a more serious note, I think the matter here is the priorities, not the isolated features being positive or not. I don't care if there is a lot 'mmursive junk. I care about the game having substance. If you chose your factions, setting and plot...

Maybe Firefox was eating way too much memory, then? I have 6GB installed, 512MB of which go to VRAM.

Well, I wouldn't mind being able to kill people in very impractical ways, like with a fork or a spoon.

Probably because there's this idea that anyone can write, so they pay far less for writing than they do for graphics design.

I don't remember where I found it, but I do remember I realized way too late that it was apparently unique and that I broke it in a critical fail :( By then I had found the alien blaster, though, so I'd probably only give the uzi to Katja.

As long as it's not siding the idiotic way... I mean, you can technically side with Eden in Fallout 3. You can side to basically commit suicide, but it's so kewl, I can killz the whole waztlan'!
