    My main is Random. Very excited for this. Hoping that the third party bros (Sonic and Snake) make a return, and that we get some wi-fi improvements. Some cool interplay between the Wii U and 3DS would be cool, too. Admittedly, Villager isn't quite the fighter you'd want to debut the next game with - compare it with Brawl where they revealed about three or four new fighters in the debut trailer alone - but then, of course, Megaman popped up and so did my dick.

    Dota Scoreshot thread

    I went into matchmaking and picked up Vengeful Spirit. It went pretty well, and marks one of the very few occasions where I've went as a support and not wanted to beat myself to death with a George Foreman grill. Probably my best Nether Swaps to date, even under pressure and with my usual attitude. My team said "good job venge" and "mvp venge" afterwards. revenge solves everything mother♥♥♥♥er

    My DOTA profile banner is now completely full of tickets. I sure do love tickets. I also got a foil card drop today. I've put it on the Market and I'm hoping someone out there will be stupid enough to buy these things. Otherwise, it's going to sit here and be too shiny for its own good. Now I realise why nobody steals the Mona Lisa or something like that - it's hard to fence valuable stuff when nobody has a use for it. #economy101 Yes, I'm complaining about essentially getting £5 for free.

    Best to pick up to learn the game imo is Sven. He's got a stun, a buff, a passive, and an easy-to-learn ultimate. He fits a number of roles as well, and he's also one of the manliest heroes out there (next to Skeleton King, Axe, and Legion Commander). Dragon Knight is also suitable, along with ol' Skely. Venomancer, Lich, and Sniper are also pretty beginner friendly while being effective heroes when played right. For strictly good looking and really strong, then Sexy Templar Assassin, Zoom Doom, and Best Hero Juggernaut are my recommendations.

    Pretty much this. It's also because my favorite classes are Spy, Sniper, and Pyro in most cases, so I don't even have a place in 6s even if I wanted one. This is subjective, of course, but I'm fairly sure I'm not alone in this way of thinking. Also this. You can love 6s, but stop hating on people who like Highlander. It's not helping the argument that I'm not even sure people are still having. We can always talk about hats, can't we? Anyone else still wear the Cheater's Lament from time to time for nostalgia?

    2269 hours as of right now, probably 2000 hours of that playing the game (as opposed to menus and the occasional idle in 2010) and a solid 1000 hours as Spy (though I kept resetting my stats for achievement boners in my younger TF2 career, so it's only like a few hundred nowadays.) You can add another 500 hours or so if you count the olden days of The Orange Box on Xbox 360. Yeah, that's still a thing that exists. Spoilers; nobody plays it anymore.

    What'cha been playing?

    I'm not much for card games or strategies, but this is surprisingly easy to learn and quite addictive. It also avoids the "pay to win" curse of most online card games, since you can't buy boosters with real money (as far as I know). I've had more fun with this than I've ever had with Magic: The Gathering, if that's worthwhile info (though I enjoyed the Pokemon TCG, so I might be an idiot?) I'd recommend picking the beta up if you like online card games. If not, either get some other reviews (like TB's) or wait until it's out of beta.

    Scrolls. I don't think I'll be playing anything but this and DOTA for quite a while.

    ...Aren't those also opinions? That's actually a fair point, though if it's not one of those "No Ontological Inertia" things, I figure that if they had more substantial updates, they'd get that active support stage and... Well, it loops back, so I'm either completely right or completely wrong. I'm no good at debating.

    Gunpoint

    Tis a pretty fun game. Just be warned that it's far more of a puzzle game than a stealth one. There's stealth elements to be sure (staying out of sight, not alerting people, etc.) but more than 50% of the game will be spent rewiring things. Not that this is by any means bad. The levels are designed well enough that the solution is never at a "what the hell how could I have ever known that" level except the final level which is just a pain in the ass. Also a little disappointed at how pacifism / ghost runs aren't as viable as one might think - some levels pretty much force you to take out guards (I believe the second level makes it mandatory) and in other levels, it's possible but more bother than it's worth. Still a great game for the price tag, though. The snarky dialogue is well worth most of that, too.

    This. I'm probably to go about selling my valuable items soon if this keeps up, Team Fortress 2 is getting too many hats and not enough maps. Or weapons. Or balance changes. Or anything besides hats. This isn't defendable with "it's a community contribution", this is just advertising. Poor advertising.

    Favorite game Mosaic

    It's nothing amazing, but it's a nice testament to how much one person can do with limited resources. It has a Deus Ex style of "upgrade this or upgrade that" and there's a number of ways to play it, including pacifism. Soundtrack is surprisingly awesome, too. It's also free. Might be the nostalgia talking here, but I enjoyed this more than Final Fantasy VII. Not sure everyone else would agree, but it had some loveable characters, the battle system was cool, and the soundtrack is amazing. Farewell to Sue is more heartwrenching than To Zanarkand. I ain't even jokin'. Also here's a list of every game or game series that has received two or more votes from different members, making it an overall SPUF favorite. [spoiler2]Pokemon series (Ruby / Sapphire / Emerald was the most popular generation.) The Legend of Zelda series (Five games were liked, but none of them more than once, so any Zelda game appears to be a favorite.) Elite Beat Agents Half Life series (2 was more popular than the original.) Portal series (2 was also more popular than the original.) Team Fortress 2 Psychonauts Yoshi's Island Super Smash Brothers series (One like was given for each game in the series.) Super Mario World Halo series (Reach was the most popular game.) Jak 3 Banjo-Kazooie Kingdom Hearts Borderlands 2 Star Wars Battlefront 2 Braid Super Mario Galaxy Dishonored The Walking Dead[/spoiler2]

    Why did it have to be nine? I love too many games. Here's the first nine I thought of, though. For context, from top left to bottom right: DOTA2 Iji Pokemon Red Fez Bastion Dishonored Grandia Halo: Reach The Walking Dead

    Huh. Reminds me of those magazines that had those card game scenarios for you to do. Like, "you've got a Machamp and no Fighting energy, they've got three Kadabras, make it work." Anyone know what I'm talking about? No? Well, still, neat feature.

    Dreams

    Why do I have the feeling Raz just saw this thread and started getting a notepad and a comfy sofa for some psych sessions? Not that I'm paranoid. Anyway, no weird dreams recently. The latest was a month or so ago, where I started picking off the skin from my leg till I got the bone. And then I ate the skin. I had a very strong cup of tea that morning.

    Taunt pack has been added and handed out for Compendium owners. It has five decent taunts, and one for Juggernaut. Excuse me, I need to wipe all this jizz off my desk, cause my dick just exploded with the greatness of that.
