I wish there was more of this style of music nowadays... This song is one of my all-time favorites.

I need sleep.

Ghost porn

 

The closest you would get is Casper, Ghostbusters 1 & 2. Maybe even Beetlejuice.

You need to start reading... Erotic fiction is technically considered 'porn'.

OT: Procrastinating sleep again, even though I want to head to bed.

Not likely.

I find it amusing that an Irishman can go up, steal a V1 launcher, and drive it around the Paris streets without anyone caring... Oh, and the nudity, keep that off unless you like LOTS of bouncy orbs with tiny protrusions. (the first 30 seconds of the game has a pair of them in semi-closeup bouncing around for 30 seconds, then it widens the shot enough to see there are Nazis watching them too)

Journalism is a joke.

 

That's why I get my gaming news from independent or obscure youtube reviewers.

That's why I don't really trust reviews anymore, just play the games I'm interested in and form my own opinions.

Benefits of torrenting.

I just want more games to enable a second monitor to show inventory, minimap, and objectives... None do so far as I've been able to determine.

I suggest stopping now, and going to either of the others in the series before you get off-put on the entire series. (especially since the other two are not even close to the level of frustrating you get from the first)

I"ve already played through Human Revolution. I have been kinda curious about Invisible War though. Maybe I would like Invisible War for what people didn't like about it. From what I've heard one of the criticisms for Invisible War is that the levels were too small and compact. Sounds perfect to me. IMO Deus Ex's levels are way too long.

Item over-abundance is something that the GMDX mod actually fixes, that's why I recommended it. As I've said, Deus Ex allows for every different approach at almost any time, and if you tie yourself down to only one you'll end up with too much of the other approaches' items.

My issues are largely with the lengthy level design and mechanical emptiness. These aspects are so endemic to Deus Ex's design that I might as well be playing something completely different. At it's core I do not like Deus Ex.

The console-based limitations for Invisible war did limit the size of the maps, but they did manage to get quite a lot of space into them. Be prepared for a LOT of loading screens though. (usually 2-3 missions per map, then on to another map, occasionally returning for an inter-map mission)

I actually rather liked The Bureau: XCOM Declassified, and the majority of people seem to think it to be horrible.

What types of hats do you wear regularly? (or if it's none, what type do you wear most often)

Room.

Michael Jordan Just Ate a Yak!

FLUME

Nowhere! Why would you ask that? That is the worst thing you could possibly ask! Do you want to kill us all or something?

I can't stop procrastinating! Help!

Death is no barrier to BTGbullseye... He patiently waits for everyone else to finish with all the stupid shit they're doing on top of the hill, all the while building a nice tube straight to the mantle. He then opens it, and turns the entire hill into a lava fountain. (he remains safely inside his underground bunker under the hill)

Party on dude!

Procrastinating sleep... I shouldn't be doing it, but I am.

GN-z11 is observed as it existed 13.4 billion years ago

Flamin' norra, that's amazing! If the Hubble can find this sort of thing, imagine what its replacement will find!

Hopefully it'll find funding to get humans to other planets...

A Whatchamacallit. (crispy rice type core, thin layer of caramel on the top, covered in chocolate)

+ milk.

Interesting... I would've guessed they'd done at least SOME testing in that regards by now, it's certainly been in testing long enough.

Alright I think it's fairly safe to say that I don't like Deus Ex. In fact I fucking hate it right now. I've reached another breaking point at the Naval Shipyards. It's yet another level that I find to be way too long with nothing in it. Hong Kong was pretty long too but it at least had some variety with it's routes whereas the Naval Shipyards has nothing.

 

I'm trying so hard to like Deus Ex but I keep finding more reasons not to. At this point I feel like I'm really reaching. It shouldn't be this hard for me to like Deus Ex. But I just don't.

 

The "Choices" you can make in Deus Ex are literally pointless. I can down one obvious route or I can frustrate myself and go looking secret route to get extra stuff. Let me fucking tell you I do not need anymore stuff. I've been stockpiling stuff like a fucking hoarder. I have 20 lockpicks, 20 multitools, 20 biocells, my ammo is maxed out and I'm constantly running across more stuff that I have maxed out. Why does Deus Ex insist on giving me so much? I have it on the highest difficulty setting so you would expect resources to be scarce. Nope not on Deus Ex's watch. You get to have your cake and eat it too apparently without any notion of an actual fucking challenge. Yeah know it would be nice if the routes had something novel to offer me instead of another fucking multitool which I can't carry. More to the point who the fuck cares which way I go? Deus Ex is a linear game so it really doesn't matter which way I go.

 

I've mentioned previously that Deus Ex's mechanics have no depth to them. This has become more readily apparent as I've progressed through the game. I kid you not there's an augmentation to reduce power drain of all augmentations which also drains more power while active. Umm, why does this augmentation even exist? I hope that it ultimately costs less to use because otherwise it would be pointless and redundant. Now it's just redundant.

 

Initially, I thought the soundtrack was pretty good. But after listening to it over and over again for several hours my brain was practically melting out of my ears. Now if the soundtrack had more variety to it I probably wouldn't have mind it. But there's nothing but Techno and I can't stand it. Alexander Brandon has done much better soundtracks then this. Where's the guy who did the soundtrack for Unreal?

 

Needless to say I'm pretty pissed with Deus Ex. If Deus Ex was an actual person it would be tempting for me to not take it to a back alley and shiv it with a broken glass bottle. Seriously, fuck this overrated garbage.

I suggest stopping now, and going to either of the others in the series before you get off-put on the entire series. (especially since the other two are not even close to the level of frustrating you get from the first)

On the PC, the forum runs flawlessly, but is quite difficult to use on my mobile. Whenever I'm on here, there is a grey banner stating how they (Ross?) have to inform me about my consenting to cookies or something. This banner occupies a large portion of the screen, and clicking the " I understand" checkbox is supposed to make it go away. Tapping on it reloads the page, but the banner re-appears seconds later. As well, I am logged out every time I move around between topics. Are these known problems? How can I solve them?

Your mobile browser isn't storing the cookies, that's where your problem lies. If it did, it would remember that you had already clicked that banner.
