Is it on disc? Is online required?

I have no internet so i really hope the answers are both no.

That's another cancer to video games. Online requirement. Especially for single player games or games people play for campaign. I seriously hope whoever came up with the idea for that dies the slowest painful death possible. That person and the whole room of people who heard that guy's suggestion and said :brilliant:

I may be wrong but pretty much the bulk of what you consider Edison's inventions and career was all made by tesla. (I feel like I'm saying edison and i have the wrong name :rofl:)

Basically tesla invented a shitload of stuff and never got credit. Like a real life "social network"(the shitty facebook movie). omg as i typed out that last bit i realized how stupid it was but i had to just finish it cause it makes me laugh to much. "The real life social network" :rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:

+1. It's fucking rad as shit.



It's like this weird phenomenon of rabid reddit fanboi's instantly tanking the ratings and 0 bombing every game that doesn't live up to their every wet dream... It happened with Fallout 4 as well, (and don't get me wrong the delivery of the game was fucking lame and it didn't match up to previous titles in many ways, as well as being misguided in where it put it did make its efforts) - that game was absolutely bombarded with negative ratings, and yet - it is still a decent enough game. Deserving of atleast a 7~ ... but all these fucking fanboi's think its a 0 :lol: See also: Stellaris, Hearts of Iron IV, etc.

That said, a lot of these companies could learn a thing or two from companies like CD Projekt RED

And @ lucid, no online requirement afaik (I pirated it at first here because I was so skeptical)

The rating system is so fucked i don't even look at the number people give. I always just read a few of the higher ratings, a few of the lower and some of the middle average scores and see what the general audience has to say about a game.

Why the hell is 7/10 average? If it weren't broke most games would have 5/10, really good games would be 7-8 and if i were a reviewer i would save anythi mg above 9 for only 1 game each year.

Instead we have companies buying reviews by putting people in weekend getaways pre release which is fucked on so many levels it makes my head fucking kill.

Fallout 4 is a great game but the lack of karma and any cause to the players effects killed it for me. A small part of me died inside when i did the "uss constitution" quest the second time playing through. Halfway through the mission you get a dialog option to
A)side with robots or
B)side with humans the robots fuck over or
C)do your own thing.
I did robots the first time so the second time i did humans. Oh what's that? You thought the mission would turn from suporting them for negative karma to attacking them for positive? Or any sort of different ending? Nope. We just decided that of all the things in fallout CHOICE was the least important feature when deciding what to bring back. But look at all these guns you get!!!

The game literally has no fallout for  actions. FUCK THAT!!!

Regarding my comments about the rating system i would personally give it a 6/10. If i rated it how the industry does now (7 being an average score) i would give it a 7.5/10. Slightly above average but nowhere near the 8 and 9(9 if I  rate similar to industry with 7 being average) i would give new vegas, and the 9.5 and 10(10 being if i rated similar to industry, 9 if i rated it where 5 is average) i would give fallout 3.

To be fair, Edison is remembered because he was a businessman. Tesla was not a businessman. That's why Edison is better remembered in American history, because America doesn't give a fuck about anybody who doesn't make a ton of money. Tesla wasn't interested in money and he died poor.

Edison wasn't really a scientist, he was more of a tinkerer and an entrepreneur. He wanted to make money and to be famous, and he got what he wanted. Tesla was a scientific visionary, and he wasn't really interested in money except as a means to develop and implement his ideas. He developed the concepts behind the power grid, but because he didn't run the company that implemented it, he was promptly forgotten. America doesn't give a fuck about visionaries, or about science, or about pretty much anything. America cares about money far more than it cares about the resources (such as Tesla's brilliance) leveraged in the pursuit of it.

Science is a thankless job in America, but I'm sure Tesla derived great satisfaction from his accomplishments. I don't like the idea that such a brilliant and inspirational man should be pitied for his lack of drive to accumulate obscene amounts of wealth. He didn't give a fuck about all that shit. If he had been obsessed with wealth as Edison had been, he would not have had the time, energy, or vision to bring to fruition all of the innovations for which we Americans are finally learning to appreciate him. His poverty was his virtue.

The really awesome thing about Tesla is towards the end of his life he had a romantic love affair with a pidgeon, whom he loved "as a man loves a woman"

Seriously, look it up!

Go back and give Fallout 1 and 2 a go. :wink:
See the foundation that New Vegas was built upon,
and why Bethesda wrote the love-letter with 3.

May be biased by nostalgia glasses, but still feel they aged well.

I love this sunny in philly quote. Charlie is trying to find an amgle to hook up with strippers when they pass a costume store. There's a soldier outfit in the display window.

Charlie:HOLD ON I GOT IT! Who gets the most respect in this country?

Frank:Actors

C: yeah but then after that

F: Musicians

C:No after that

F: Singers, athletes models, scientists, producers writers

C: LOOK FRANK STOP! Now look if you buy me this army vet I'll show these women a good time they'll never forget.



I totally butchered the line where frank lists them off but you get the point.

Didn't he electrocute cats in public using Teslas alternating current just to try and prove it was too dangerous to replace his direct current?

Yeah seems very scummy to me...

What is truly sad though is how many of his accomplishments and ideas got swept under the rug becouse they were designed to be efficient not profitable.

I heard about the elephant too but from what I heard is he was doing demonstrations with cats then at one point an elephant escaped somewhere so he took it as an opportunity to prove tesla current are deadly enough to kill an elephant... I never looked into it so I may be wrong though :shrug:

Just dropping in to say no man's sky is fantastic, fuck the haters. It does get a little repetitive but it goes a little deeper than what people thought after playing for an hour.





I'm 30 hours in and still loving every bit of it. Fucking fantastic game. I haven't been more impressed or obsessed by a game AT launch in a long ass time.
Yeah it's a little repetitive when you are grinding up, but that doesn't really take away from the fun of the game IMO.
And that repetitiveness can be fixed in the long term if the developers keep working on it.
Like I said before, I think it has a SOLID foundation to be one of the best games ever (IMO)... it just needs more refinement and polish to fix some of the repetitiveness issues and other relatively minor things.
If they did an overhaul to the whole "questing" system to give it more diversity.. made NPCs a little more lively and found wandering around the planets and whatnot... that would fix half of the "problems" I have with the game.
But even still, as it is now... game fucking rules, despite its flaws. For every flaw I can find 10 things I like way more.

I've been following it for a while and haven't gotten it because of mixed reviews. Probably going to pick it up once it goes on sale and some bugs have been ironed out. It looks beautiful, even with some of the creatures looking broken as hell, lol.
