Finally, some god damn perspective XD

(also, for those who are into lulz, there's a libertard in the comments section whining that Extra Credits isn't as libertarian as he is)

Saw that.  Also was proud of the fact that everybody else took him to task for it.
There is light and darkness in the world, to be sure.  However, there's no harm to be had in walking in the shade or shadows.

I feel like I have too many shotguns in GMOD.

Also, my steam handle is Chelonian Knight.

Thinking of starting a new Skyrim game as a Breton, getting my magic resistance as high as I can early on, getting his armor as high as I can early on, and continuing the game as a tank.  I'm just debating on whether to have him use a tw-handed warhammer (he'd be able to block, and he could pay a Companion to train him) or 2 maces (faster and pretty cool to smash opponent's skulls in, especially with Elemental Fury).

I found my copy of Fire Emblem: Awakening that I had lost! So happy.

Picked up Gnomoria again and started a new fort. As it turns out, not ignoring military and healthcare related things is pretty vital to surviving past the first couple of seasons. Who knew?

Just got done playing inFamous 2 through the "evil" ending for the first time. It's interesting...unlike the first game, where it ends the same whether you have good or evil karma, this one has two entirely separate endgames depending on which path you choose.

I confess, I actually like games that have a blue karma / red karma system.
Games that force you to leave things up to your imagination or have abstract consequences feel kinda lazy or esoteric.  I want my evil to actually mean something even if it's as simple as a red background and a visual change.  Of course, I like consequences, too.

I just 100% completed Spirit Tracks. Damn good game, and possibly the most underrated Zelda ever. Though I suppose that's to be expected, seeing as it's associated with Phantom Hourglass.

Got Last of Us Remastered when it came out. Really enjoying it.

The Internet backdraft over Bill is oh so funny. Oh no, a gay character that isn't a walking talking stereotype, WAHHHHHH!

Wait, why is there a backdraft now? The game is a few years old. This is just a super HD remake.
Still can't think of a signature a year later.

Actually it's barely a year old.
Which is one of the reasons people bitched about a remastering.

Started a new game in Skyrim as a warrior with heavy armor, 2 maces, and pretty good magic resistance.  Thus far, he's lethal 1 on 1 or 1 on 2, but when he still has trouble when getting swarmed.

To be fair to Sony/Naughty Dog, it came out right as the generation transition happened. And there are idiots out there they automatically throw away (well trade in, but same difference) every game from the previous gen and the console. Despite that you know, they still work, and games are still coming out. And that it always takes a while for the next gen to actually get going.

I've found that heavy armour and traditional sword-and-board actually works fairly well when being swarmed.  You get plenty of protection, the ability to interrupt power attacks, and decent DPS.
