  1. I can think of the lack of killstreaks. That's about it, both of them seem to share a dreadful community, an abundance of hackers, maps full of chokepoints, and grenade spam.Then again, I'm open-minded so maybe I'm not seeing the big picture.Besides, Modern Warfare thread. Best stick to that, I derail things often enough without even intending so. Welp.


  2. Counter Strike. I understand that it was essential in Steam and it's the grandpa of PC FPS games, but it's aged badly. For years it has not evolved, and grandpa is now decaying in his chair, having soiled his pants and leaving a bad stink in the room. The maps are sins against the art of map design with chokepoints and camping everywhere, the grenades ruin any intelligent combat you were hoping for, and it still persists with hackers and other annoyances to this day. It's a relic and it needs to be buried.

    Borderlands. That art style is lovely, but I just can't appreciate it when I'm running back and forth doing pointless gathering quests in a dead wasteland. The characters are annoying, the music makes me sleepy and the gameplay is nothing special. Gamespy's forced multiplayer registration is the nail in the coffin.

    Knights of the Old Republic. Okay, "hate" is strong for this, more like "disappointment." This game was so legendary in all the words people poured over me on it but to me it just seems underwhelming. It's not bad, but I just find it very overrated and I barely made it two hours in before I got bored and moved to Mass Effect, which seemed twice as good and half as praised.

    League of Legends. The game itself is great, but I have one problem. You have to pay for characters, either by spending real money or spending dozens of games playing with heroes you don't care about, so that you can gamble and buy a character and probably find out that you don't like anyway.

    Fuck that. Fuck it. Fuck fuck FUCK that shit. I fucking hate it.

    ...FUCK.


  3. Welp, I traded for one anyway. DOHWELLTrying out with bots mostly for now and my God is this good. The variety of the characters, the voice acting, the character designs, just nnnfff. From the few games I've tried I'm best as pushing or ambushes. I tried a PVP game as Broodmother and came out of it without a single death, so that's good. I'm aware that you can accidentally feed the enemy team with the spiderites but there's something beautiful about the enemy pushing into your web and being unaware that you are literally right beside them. Then bam, ambush them (preferably with ultimate.)It seems that in every game I play, I'm the sneaky bastard. Hm. I guess that counts for real life as well.


  4. Did you take the survey yet?

    I did. I lied like a bitch and I think they'll see through it and keep the keys for those fancy pants pro players that do all the animation cancelling and can measure units by their sense of smell or something.So instead I got Skyrim while it was cheap and I'll hawk that for it. I'm not sure if that's 1:1 though. In case it wasn't clear, I'm the derpy one of the bunch. Anyone wants it, by the way, just say the word.Still, if they accept my survey then hey, money back.

  5. I've only recently gotten into the MOBA thing and now that I know what the hell a jungler is, I'm ready to throw money at the screen until someone has a DOTA key they'll give me. I dunno, how much do they go? £20 or something?


  6. To be honest I much prefer Extra Punctuation. It shows off Yahtzee's sexy brain cells way more.Not that I'm gay for him or anything....Anyway, Angry Joe is pretty awesome too. Check him out here.PS: I'm gay for him too.


  7. Pick any class, jump in and learn it the old fashioned way. If someone gets mad at you, it's because they are srspants.If you want to be more boring about it, I'd recommend checking out the forums for help and advice, sticking with the straightforward pros like Assault and Gunner, and maybe finding a friend or few to come along.Also if you take my Assassin slot I will strangle you with my delicious bacon.


  8. Here we can talk about the other stuff Valve did. You know, l33t h4x sk1llz in Counter Strike, grabbin' peelz in Left 4 Dead, or the cake in Portal.

    It's a lie.

    I'd also talk about DOTA2 but I'm not rich and fanciful to have a pass for it yet. damn you cructo
