First part of 8(I think?)
Dozens of spelling mistakes in the dialogue, and extremely lacklustre voice actors so far. I've seen the black&white + red graphic style done before, but a lot better than this. Betrayer perfected it. This just uses it to hide the crappy environments :laugh:

New very hyped WoW 1.12 server. A bit unstable now, but very playable. Population is numbering in the thousands (2.3k online right now, and it's looking like it'll stay that way). It is awesome.

Started playing CS:Source again, just because I can fiddle with weapon models and skins. CS:GO looks better but I absolutely hate stock weapons and because they feel weird, I can't even play well.

I don't like the shooting in CS:GO compared to source/1.6.. I can't get used to it.

the fact that in many situations you may empty your weapon trying to kill some one... and also the one shoot one kill policy of the AWP Sniper rifle is crap in a game, also the overpowered AK47....but spending time just playin casual is fine..

Playing the PC re release of FF7. Controller support is bad. I used to use the xinput wrapper for my PS3 controller, but I had to go back to motioninjoy paired with betterds3 so I could set it up for directinput, as the game doesn't work with xinput (oddly). Other than that, it's not bad. Looks sharper than the original but I feel you could already do better with emulators (as much as I really don't care for emulation) or mods with the original PC version that have existed for a while. It doesn't have the awful MIDI music, but a redone version of the PSX music. Magic Defense bug was fixed (m def value of equipped armors never actually applied). The black chocobo save editor can be fun...

For CS:GO, they are literally just skins. Just different textures. Pointless. In CS:S you can actually have different weapon models, reload animations, sounds.

For example, those dual berettas for terrorists, I've replaced those with Grammaton Cleric dual pistols (from Equilibrium movie). It even makes some insane spinning reload animation that looks totally badass. P90 is replaced by dual MP5's from The Matrix, the ones used by Morpheus (I sometimes use the minigun replacement with spinning barrel). M3 shotgun is replaced with SPAS-12, XM auto shotgun with Jackhammer, M249 is replaced with some alien fusion weapon and all basic pistols, USP, Glock and Deagle have badass new models that are raised higher within FOV, making them far better feel and I actually play better if weapon gives good feedback. With stock USP, there is no way I'll make much kills. But with different model, easy headshots. It's incredible how model and position within FOV affects my aiming and shooting skills.

Regards,

If you empty your weapon trying to kill someone, you need to learn how to aim....
The awp is a high powered sniper rifle. It costs a lot - and you have to be accurate and quick to use it. It has drawbacks, and is not for everyone. A leg shot is also only around 87 damage.
The AK is NOT overpowered...

the AK47 recoil in GO is definitely higher than 1.6/source. Deagle doesn't feel right at all. the shooting is just too different. I like everything else about the game.

the weapons in CS used to be pretty balanced until 1.5 maybe even earlier than that. at one point most of the weapons in the game were pretty useful. the MP5 was one of my favourites :)

I think in 1.5 you could one shot somebody in the toe with an AWP. in 1.6/source they don't die, right? I remember the servers that used to ban it lol

24/7 de_dust no AWP!

wow what a ripoff, I got it for like 12 bucks last year off of kinguin I think or some other similar site. the cod franchise is really overstepping with their insane prices after such a long time. I don't care that it's still being played, cs:go is still being played and you can usually get it at a sale for 4-5 dollars.

The fiancee and I left after Wrath, and before Cat. It was just turning into too much of a grind, job, work, blah. I wanted to play to enjoy, not play to run do this daily, then that, then farm for an hour for ore/weeds.... It even got to where fishing wasn't fun any more, and I really used to enjoy the down-time with fishing. Then, to see all the dumbing-down they've done since, nah. I don't think so. I understand they've made improvements as well, but too much taken away for me.

still playing Defiance right now, with bouts of Insurgency thrown in on occasion. I did get a little "Dirty Bomb" in this weekend for their event. That's an ok game, but they still have too many bunny-hoppers in to suit me....

The fiancee and I left after Wrath, and before Cat. It was just turning into too much of a grind, job, work, blah. I wanted to play to enjoy, not play to run do this daily, then that, then farm for an hour for ore/weeds.... It even got to where fishing wasn't fun any more, and I really used to enjoy the down-time with fishing. Then, to see all the dumbing-down they've done since, nah. I don't think so. I understand they've made improvements as well, but too much taken away for me.

still playing Defiance right now, with bouts of Insurgency thrown in on occasion. I did get a little "Dirty Bomb" in this weekend for their event. That's an ok game, but they still have too many bunny-hoppers in to suit me....

Vanilla had a lot of farming as well in the end game to get the reputation needed to get some epics. Same with PVP, I got up to rank 12 before the xrealm thing started, the difference being then you needed a good team of 10-15 people that know what you are doing. And i feel for pvp at least skill was much more needed than gear. Later with TBC most of the epics got substitued with greens / blues from the first dungeons / 10 man raids.
