I’m curious what you consider to be great literature.

Like I’ve said multiple times now, it’s fine if you prefer simpler writing but to completely dismiss writers like Tolstoy just because you’re bored by them is just the height of ignorance.

I dunno what to tell you man, if you think Tolstoy is a bad writer maybe you need to reassess your standards.

I genuinely can’t tell if this is parody.

They were essentially insulting people that enjoy Martin’s books. Like I said in my comment, if they’d said his writing isn’t for them I’d have no issue with that, but that’s not what they said.

Martin is a master of deep characters and world building, and letting the world tell the story rather than focusing on Hollywood style character driven narratives.

It’s fine if you prefer simpler, less invovled styles of writing but to dismiss his work as inherently “boring” makes you look really ignorant.

I had the same experience, “flat” is the right word for it. There’s a lack of precision to it all, zombies just come from anywhere and the actual combat is somehow unsatisfying, something to do with the time to kill and weapon feel maybe? Kind of hard to pinpoint why but it just doesn’t feel anything like L4D.

Spend your money, travel, get outside your comfort zone and challenge yourself. Or get professional help.

It’s saving grace was that we got BC as one of the most fun and interesting characters in Marvel vs Capcom 3.

BionIC AAAAAAAAAAARMMMM!

DS is great, factions are interesting and well balanced. There’s some pretty wild stuff in some of them but nothing that seems stronger than the top tier base factions.

I know, they just didn’t provide any details about how or where in that comment, though they followed it up with a link after I complained.

Why?

This is much more useful, much appreciated.

Played Twilight Imperium last weekend. 7 players, playing to 12 points, about half the table using Discordant Stars factions.

Wrapped it up after about 12 hours and gave the win to the player in the strongest looking position because it was probably going to take another 2 hours to finish and we were all very tired.

Very fucking helpful, thanks.

Is it even possible to play Tribes anymore? Are there any active servers, for any version?

Yeah I guess there’s the code assistants, that’s probably the main one.
