I finally watched Deathly Hallows: Part 2. Might be my new favorite in the series. I think it made the transition from book to movie the best out of any.
So I saw The Dark Knight Rises. Fantastic. Not as good as Dark Knight in my mind, but man oh man was Bane intense.
In other news, yay skin! It was a lot of fun to see this come together backstage. I even had my own little part to play! Granted it was just cataloguing images that I'm not entirely sure were used... but hey, it still looks nice.
Microsoft: Oh man, I had quite a few laughs during this one. Not good laughs, definitely laughing at them. Internet explorer. Classic. Too much Kinect in my opinion. Halo 4 looked to be the only decent thing to come out of that show.
EA: Splinter Cell looks totally awesome. I know nothing about the series, but still, pretty cool. I just can't seem to get excited for the Lara Croft title though. It seems like such a great idea, but all the gameplay they've shown so far just looks terrible. So much quicktime. Just Dance 4 makes me want to puke. Just no.
Ubisoft: First off, that lady annoyed the snot out of me. I feel like Tobuscus could've actually been funny were it not for her. Not sure how I feel about ZombiU, other than the terrible name. I love that there's a mature FPS for a Nintendo console, but zombies? Watch Dogs. Oh my gosh Watch Dogs. That game better be available on Steam. It looks amazing. Cool idea, interesting setup, and it's pretty much an urban Assassin's Creed. Speaking of...
Sony: OH MY GOD THERE'RE SHIP BATTLES IN AC 3. SO AMAZING. Sony's was hands down the best show today. Even just as far as presentation goes. Beyond looks fantastic, a game starring Ellen Page is a great idea. I'm hesitant about All Stars. It seems like way too much of a Smash Bros. clone to be taken seriously. The Book of Spells looks interesting. I think it'll be a great game for kids, I know I would've loved it. Now if they release a LOTR Wonder Book...
Looking forward to Nintendo's conference tomorrow, I hope they reveal something great!
So, I was in the BZPRPG long ago, and uh, needless to say, it didn't go well. I'm not a very good writer, or storyteller, two very vital aspects to TBRPGs.
So my question is: How much bearing does a members writing skill/ability have on your interaction with that player?
One of the main reasons I never re-joined, other than time, is that I felt embarrassed by my posts. When you put my awkwardly worded rambles next to some of the works of art of other RPers, the difference is obvious.
So yeah, is it a huge deal to you when someone who isn't so great at RPing joins the game?
I spent a good amount of time today trying to get something to work in Blender. I was trying to have a particle field exert a force on itself, where each particle pulls on every other particle, as mapped to a texture. Never did get it to work though.
I also cleared up some space on my phone, so either tomorrow or Tuesday, I'll take a video of the laser lab to show you all.
I watched Doctor Who, which was pretty sad... I miss Rory already.
But awesome stuff happened later.
So, me and about six other guys went on a night adventure. We went hiking for a while, climbed a barbed wire fence, and then climbed onto a water tower. We chilled there for about an hour.
Did a car wash today for a church fundraiser. Forgot sunscreen. AAAAARRRGGGGHHHHH!
In other news, I finally finished Final Fantasy VII. Such a great game. Seriously, if you haven't played it, go buy a PS1 and play it. Definitely one of the best RPGs I've ever played.
