Bay 12 Games Forum

I just read the first page by accident.
It sounds pretty much exactly the same as this one.

... I never did find out who the states were intending to nuke...

... ebook reader, maybe? Can't think of much physical books offer over those, barring the whole battery-life thing. Some of them even have that neat little setup where you basically turn the pages (run your finger across the screen) anyway.

I'unno. Nowadays most of what I miss when I'm reading physical text is a bloody zoom feature. I'm used to reading at around 180% zoom these days

A nice grey text on blue background or something (yellow on black, etc., so forth, so on. Darkling has a soothing color scheme.) is really much nicer than most physical texts, too... least seems to be easier on my eyes, anyway. Digital copies tend to be so much more... malleable... than physical ones. You're a lot more likely to be able to adjust things to taste, often with very little effort. S'nice.

... still a bit of a bibliophile, though. Lot more comfortable throwing books at people than I am the computer. Decent book can take the hit at a solid velocity and maybe tear the cover at most. Computer falls to pieces at that sort of impact.

Could probably give the thread a search for "bot match" (or just bots, I guess) to see some opinions on that. There's been both sides. Intermediate seems to honestly be better in most ways than a lot of human players, though. For what that's worth. You could do worse than playing those intermittently for practice. Beginner's nice enough if you just want to roll over something (barring some incredibly bad team mates, anyway).

As for me... I just don't really play PvP at all, generally. My nascent guilt strings tug badly enough when I subject 2-4 random people to my loading time, ha, nevermind 2X+1 that many. Plus I just don't really like playing against humans in AoS style maps, ha. Make exceptions for in-house or pre-arranged stuff, but I generally just don't do solo queue PvP.

ARAM keeps tempting me, though. ARAM's nice in general. Pretty much any of the non-rift maps are more fun t'me, really.

... not the risk of damage. The risk of going overdue. As I hear it, most of the online book rental places (chegg somewhat especially, if reviews are to be trusted) will absolutely shaft you if you're so much as a minute late on returning the text in question. I wouldn't really expect it to be an issue, but... sometimes stuff comes up, y'know?

... on one hand, I want to say, y'know, live and let live. Harm not what has not yet harmed you, etc., so forth, so on.

On the other hand, they're goddamn wasps and they're right up there with bed bugs and whatnot in the upper ranks of "Nature's Utter Bastards That Deserve to Die." Bring the fire, SG. Burn the bastards.

Fairly sure I've actually beaten it. Just... when it was released. Maybe three, four years later, dunno. Been a while, anyway. And I don't remember, like. Any of it.

Was it an enchanted +2 kobold head helm of idle sadism? No? Then no. Not good enough.

I've... still got it installed, I think, though I'm terrible at the game and generally only play vs. bots, besides that. There's definitely still some other B12 players playing occasionally.

Couldn't hop in on anything tonight, though. And... if I jumped in on something PvP, you could expect horrible performance Still, might be up for somethin'.

Haven't played awesomenauts to be able to make a comparison, s'far as that goes. Maybe check the OP if you haven't already. Possibly watch a few games on youtube or whatev'.
