  1. I like a challenge, but a reasonable one. I don't like games that are designed to not be beaten. That is just ridiculous and cruel to the player. If you think I'm bullshitting you, then go out and buy a copy of Zelda: Goddess Of Wisdom, and see how well you do on it. It's a ROM-hack on SNES, so it may be difficult to find. But that game is literally designed to not be beaten.

  2. I always recommend a disc capable version of a system. Forget the price of the console itself for the moment. The disc system contains all the capabilities on a digital system. But as already said it also has the capability to run a disc based game. Also there may come a game that is only released on a disc that you really want. Well you're screwed there, unless you buy a second console that has disc capabilities. Whether you ever actually use it is irrelevant. It's better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it. Also, say you have a game that is a DDL on your Xbox One. Well you're going to have to buy it again for your Xbox Series S. Or if you have it on disc. You're going to have to buy it again. You're going to end up rebuying a lot of games.

    It just makes a lot more sense to me to get the disc capable version of a console than to get the completely digital version that lacks disc capabilities.

  4. That's honestly not something that ever crossed my mind. I would say they train 12 hours minimum. Like Super Smash Bros would take a ton of constant training to be at a competition level. Any random fighting game like Mortal Kombat would take a shitload of training as well. You can't just do it for an hour or two to reach competition level. To truly master a game, you have to play it several hours a day, and I assume for several years as well.

    Also I wonder, how does a person get into eSports to be a competitor? I haven't been able to find a definitive answer to that question anywhere. I may be doing a bad search, but I just can't find it.

  5. I got to watching their videos again, and have a question. Unfortunately the only way I could think of to get it answered was to bump this thread so people would know what the hell I'm talking about.

    Listen to the actors talk in their real voice at the end of the videos. Someone who knows, would you tell me if they have a British accent or Australian accent? Those are the two that I just can't tell apart. There's a few others, but considering the actors of these videos, the others are irrelevant.

  6. I bought @Rain Dew this exact kind of chair a few years ago, and she loves it. It's not any theme or anything, it's just blue and black colored. But the design of the chair is identical. So I can confirm that they're really comfortable. The two pillows on it can be annoying as hell, depending on how you angle the chair to use it. But otherwise we have no issues whatsoever with it.

  7. For the most part, sports games seem to be a waste of time to me. Games around professional sports like NFL, MLB, NHL,  and NBA just to name a few seem to offer nothing more than an updated roster. Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love hockey. But nothing really changed between NHL13 and NHL14.

    Individual sports, where you’re a team of one, can be an exception. For example the snowboarding games I played all offer different courses, and increasingly more challenging stunts to pull off for the qualifiers.

    It seems like games in general were harder back then. Today, a lot of games tell you exactly what to do to beat them. It seems like games from the older times just made you figure it out for yourself!

    You’re absolutely right. Games back then were immensely more challenging. We didn’t have guides, or online walkthroughs, or even the internet to look for help from other gamers. The only way to get any tips was word of mouth. Mainly I’m talking about the NES. But even the next couple generations were almost as bad. Nowadays every game has in depth guides, and online walkthroughs written by scores of people. In all honesty, the closest thing we had back then was a Game Genie.

  9. Riding bulls is another that I did for a while when I was a teen. I hung up my spurs when I enlisted. If physically capable, I would love to do it again, but my body would never be able to take it these days.

    It’s kinda hard to ride if you can’t even walk.😉

  10. More members joining every day. So I’m thinking maybe around 2-2½ years. I would be surprised if it took more than 2 to be honest. People get more comfortable after a bit of feeling out the forum, and most everyone who comes tends to stay from what I’ve seen. More members equals more posts. More posts, equals hitting milestones quicker.

    What did I miss mate? Please, steam down a little bit. Whatever is the cause of your rage and getting pissed, please let go and I apologize on the aggressor's behalf. 

    You missed a lot. He kept posting for me, telling me how I feel, what I believe, and where my emotions lie. I will not tolerate anyone making an attempt to dictate my personality to me.

    My rage is well earned here.

  12. And just FYI, if I had the power I Would destroy xtianity. I would remove it from the earth. The people, objects, locations, all of it. I absolutely despise xtianity. I would love to watch it all burn. I've been to a couple book burnings, and just to offend and piss them off I threw bibles in the fire. And what do you know of Satanism? Have you ever looked into it? If you check out TST you will see that there are seven tenets.

    1) One should strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.

    2) The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.

    3) One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.

    4) The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo one's own.

    5) Beliefs should conform to one's best scientific understanding of the world. One should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit one's beliefs.

    6) People are fallible. If one makes a mistake, one should do one's best to rectify it and resolve any harm that might have been caused.

    7) Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought. The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

    Do I follow them to the letter? No. I do not. I do not feel that everyone deserves compassion. Therefore, I will not tolerate stupidity. i will read one more reply from you, and if it follows what you have been posting thus far, YOU WILL BE BLOCKED.

  13. Am I that transparent? your "god" is nothing more than a figment of your imagination. Your religion is nothing more than organized crime. I would never lower myself to that status. I would never worship your "god". I'm not gullible, delusional, or stupid. Also my imaginary friend state ended when I was 4. And any church that would excommunicate a 3 year old isn't worthy of the child.

    And again, when did I say I have siblings? Point me to that comment. If you can't then

    STOP PUTTING WORDS IN MY GOD DAMN MOUTH YOU FUCKING MORON

    Since you hate other humans, and like only the six which are closer to you. Then it means you'll only need their help and the rest humans isn't of help to you. But do you think is possible? We need the help of others and not primarily those close to us. I believe you have siblings or relatives, do you hate them as well? I know you're a Christian, so you hate your pastors and church members as well? 

    Ok, I have to address the big one first.
    Where the fuck did you get the idea that I'm xtian? It's a well known fact around here that I'm Satanic. I'm a card carrying member of The Satanic Temple. Making an assumption like that is flat out fucking stupid.

    Now as for needing help, I don't ask for the help of anyone. If I can't do something for myself, then I'm fucked and that's the end of it.

    You make another idiotic assumption. How do you get the idea that I have siblings? Have I mentioned something to that effect and simply forgotten about it?
    And yes, I despise my entire bloodline. I hope they have all died. And I hope it was excruciatingly painful.

     

    I refuse to tolerate stupidity, which means I'm a hairs breath away from blocking your ass.

  15. How did everyone get their username? I got mine because it's a nickname I have had since I was a kid. People knew me as The Blackangel. I don't remember how exactly I got it, but it stuck. I always liked it, so I used it as both an alias and username/screen name. I considered using Legion at one point, but The Blackangel was more meaningful to me. And honestly, I felt that it was also a better fit as well.

     

    BTW, to staff, I did a search and couldn't find any posts like this. I'm sure that at some point something was made, but I couldn't find it.

  16. I have a best friend, because I can. I hate humans, but there is always an exception to every rule. Of this planet, the six I mentioned are the only ones that matter to me out of the 8 billion that inhabit the earth. I am not one of the six. I don't give a half a shit about what happens on my end, good or bad. Live or die, it doesn't matter. I care about those six, because they have earned it.

    A sociopath has the capacity to care about a few people. But the majority don't mean shit to us.
