Arm the Homeless got a reaction from Rammite in GOTY 2013
Games need to some some kind of challenge, whether it be a physical, mental, or emotional thing. And so people get what I'm talking about, here are some examples of games with each kind of challenge. And of course these can be combined. Multiple games can have multiple challenges and whatnot.
PHYSICAL
Bit-Trip Games Rhythm Heaven Every single Touhou game
MENTAL
Antichamber Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Papers, Please
EMOTIONAL
Any horror game. And that's pretty much it
Physical challenges are the most common. They basically need some form of dexterity and finesse to complete. Their challenge is skill over anything else.
A mental challenge focuses mainly on puzzles and riddles. They are mainly in puzzle games, but any game that uses puzzle-like elements do require you to have a certain level of mental capacity.
Emotional challenges are the hardest as they are variable between everyone much more frequently than the previous two. The easiest human emotion to create in a game that also proves to be a detriment is fear. I honestly can't think of any other thing I could stick an emotional challenge in besides a horror game.
Without at least one of the 3 challenges above there really isn't a game, but rather an interactive experience or just an story that you can experience for yourself.
But the entire point of a game is that it's a medium that is interactive, a niche that games have that no other medium will ever be able to carry out with as much power and strength.
Saying for us to dumb it down and look it as a linear experience is exactly what we don't want.

Also, I used to use Comodo Firewall.
Literally the worst thing ever.

Avast + Malwarebytes is the master race.
Though MSE is also a good alternative to Avast.

Arm the Homeless got a reaction from Comeau in share your worst jokes
When Bob was visiting his older cousin Randy in Texas, they had a nice time driving about, shooting, and over all nonsense. When it started getting late, they went to a fancy hotel to have dinner. They both ordered steaks and some cola. After a little discussion on the sights, the drinks came in glasses the size of a McDonalds Supersize drink.
"Cousin! I've never seen anything like this. These cups are the sizes of buckets!" exclaimed Bob after first seeing the glasses of cola.
After taking a sip of his cola, Randy replies, "Cousin, that's because everything is big in Texas."
Soon afterwards, the steaks come in on platters the size of an open middle school math textbook.
"Randy! These plates are ginormous! The plates in Maine were certainly not as big as these," said Bob.
"Well cousin, that's because everything is big in Texas."
When the dinner was over, both Bob and Randy had had their fill. Suddenly, Bob has the urge to pee, so he asks to Randy where the bathroom is.
"Cousin, where is the bathroom?"
Randy quickly replies, "Straight down the hall and take a right."
So Bob took off and walked down the narrow hallway, passing by residents and workers of the hotel. However, instead of taking a right like how he should have, he instead took a left and entered the room there. That very room was the hotel's swimming pool.
After taking one gaze at the pool, Bob shouted out, "PLEASE DON'T FLUSH!" and ran out into the hall.

So a Roman walks into a bar, holds up 2 fingers, and says "Five beers please".

Even if you literally refuse to touch Dota 2, listen to the audio. They recorded someone's voicechat to a russian teammate and it's fucking hilarious.

Heyo! Sorry for not posting new stuff in a while, but I've been a bit inactive in the art stuff these months (well, except for some stuff for contests which I will show another time). But anyway, here's a little update with some Breaking Bad fanart:
And new Sketchies:
Hope you like it! :D

Or Hawkshadow. Although he had two accounts here, but hopefully forgot about them, which is absolutely a relief.
I do not want his endless bitching how Valve did golden weapons better than him in every way possible. And him being a massive attention whore all the time.
