Yeeeaah, I don't think I wanna watch that DOTA2 thing...


VENGEANCE....

I dunno. A molten core raid in vanilla WoW took easily 3 hours if your guilds were alt-tabbing cat-assers. For a game of Dota 2, anything over 1 hour is very unusual. I think the average game length is around 36 minutes.

Fixed.
 
Yeah, that's the one.

Loved that part too, because I actually played that game and I still remember, if you go around talking to people in that area, how they'll all tell you not to go up to the upper part of the city, because the town guards are really strong there and will totally fuck you up.

And then Dave just goes casually strolling up there...

36 minutes of game time maybe, but you have to factor in the time for the draft, especially if you are playing CM, the time it takes to queue, the time it takes to put together a group.
 
I think he acknowledges that, but the general advice is still true.

I know that I sure as fuck have nothing I want to play on launch.

The most attractive game to me is Dead Rising 3, but even then, eh. I don't like the direction that game is going in.

Meanwhile Wii U is looking more and more attractive to me. All the love W101 is getting is getting to me, and then there's Bayo 2 and the inevitable Mario/Zelda games (and maybe a Metroid one...?). Everything else I have my PC for.
 
You've changed!!

Reminds me of that Ryan Davis clone that dressed just like him and went to that double Fine thing earlier this year.

There are tons of them though. I saw a dead ringer on the train last week. I think you just see a big guy with the beard and your imagination fills in the rest of the details.
 
Post GAF-stomp Daily Dota was throwing dark.

Pascual close to tears. ;_;

I was writing something in English yesterday (not my native language), and I was about to use the phrase 'to throw dark' when I started to wonder what it meant exactly and where I could have heard it. So, I ended up googling it.

Looks like it actually was the GB guys that came up with it. I don't know if this was common knowledge (the English speakers among you would probably recognize it is not a common saying) but it's something that surprised me and I thought it was funny to share.
 
I think long form is still embargoed. I can see them doing a QL live tomorrow.

Lots of "perfect" reviews. I await the inevitable backlash vs defence force.
 
I'm mean it's gta. It will have a cool setting and great music and then the story and the actual game will be terribly boring unless you just fuck around in the world.

Same as it always has, same as it always will.
