Just played the Kingdoms of Amalur demo. It made me a sad panda. It has so much potential and could be very fun, but it's buggy as shit. Even more than Bethesda games are on release.
Other than the bugs, combat is quite frustrating. Also, turn on post processing and the framerate becomes terrible, even though the graphics aren't really amazing. Turn it off and the game looks like just like World of Warcraft.
~~And since it's releasing in about 10 days, I don't think they're going to be able to fix much.~~
I just read that the build EA used to make the demo was 3 months older than the final build. The developer 38 Studios says the release version is far better. I hope it is.

Started watching the Ghost Stories dub. I find it hilarious how they changed all of the characters' personalities. Jesus Girl, Jew Boy, Retarded Kid, The one girl who uses "damn" a lot, and the cat who sounds like Salem.

I finished my script and rough storyboard for the "End-Of-The-Year TV2 4 Parameters Project" and I may need some help for a particular scene, though I'll hold off officially asking for such help until I get the final approval from Mr. Brislin.

looks like hes making a story/film and he needs help on it, maybe criticism or a plot twist, though he has yet to receive a go-signal from Mr. Brislin.

Roven · « **Reply #4649 on:** January 30, 2012, 04:52:53 PM »

But who is Mr. Brislin?

Havoc10K · « **Reply #4650 on:** January 30, 2012, 04:58:21 PM »

I'm pretty sure someone we should know about.

Why should we know (more) about Tyler's teacher _(assumption)?

Havoc10K · « **Reply #4652 on:** January 30, 2012, 05:41:30 PM »

I think that's his assumption, but seeing that post he made, he was either drunk, or very sober.

Just read the news that Starbucks is going to try to enter Norwegian market. I feel a bit sorry for them, coffee drinkers stick to what they are used to as a habit and coffee in scandinavia is way different from what starbucks will offer.

How many people here drink Starbucks coffee?

Do we have those here in Finland? I don't even know.

Steam Support replied to my ticket, i totally forgot about it ages ago.
They told me something I should probably do, problem is, that is in the FAQ and Troubleshooting STEAM section which is the first thing I would check when I have problems with something.

So I replied that I did it and the problem persists, now to wait a month for them to actually take it seriously, as they should.

It's probably something they could fix if they cared.

I think I recall that there is a place somewhere on the site with the stats of how many members use Mac vs Windows vs Linux.
That should give you an idea of how many people drink Starbucks vs not Starbucks vs not Starbucks.

I never drank coffee that I didn't make myself, and I hardly ever drink coffee at all.

I don't know, In sweden pete's coffee was a huge hit despites it's price. I'm sure a lot of older people won't start shopping there. But a lot of hipster teens will go there because of all the media attention it gets in the US.

I'm afraid of starting to drink coffee, I have an addictive personality. It ~~could~~would end poorly.

Oddly, we're actually discussing the Elasticity of coffee in my Econ class right now. That I'm not paying attention too.
