  1. Not the greatest guy to be citing the ideals of, since he thought murder of innocent women was a good thing.
  2. Sounds kinda like you're thinking of a republic of cooperatives... That was kinda the idea of the USA to begin with, but you see how that turned out. The problem is that humans were never designed to be in large communities without conflict. The largest viable community size that humans are able to cooperate cohesively in is around 2000. (most work better down in the <200 range) This is basic human nature. If there are too many humans around, someone will ALWAYS try and impose their will on all the rest, sometimes even proclaiming it to be "for their own good". Sometimes they really are trying to help people, sometimes not, but it always ends up leaving minorities trampled on. Essentially what I'm getting at is, this stuff sounds great on paper, but can't work in reality because it's got humans involved.
  3. NFTs have always been about money laundering. Putting it in games is just another way for the big companies to get a lot of money from people for something of limited or no value.
  4. You're doing fairly well yourself if what I've read so far is any indication.
  5. I can see Carmack's viewpoint and Newell's, and can confidently say they are nowhere near the same type of thing. Carmack wants people to escape the shitty reality by going into the game, Newell wants the transcendence of consciousness from exclusively organic, to a more cybernetic form. That said, neither are likely to get it, as places like Facebook will monetize the shit out of those technologies, and it will remain a luxury shithole rather than a household item like a refrigerator .
  6. But that's a true masterpiece!
  7. I distinctly remember playing a demo of this in the early 2000's. (when I found a pile of old demo CDs in the trash) I remember it being somewhat similar to Terminal Velocity or Hellbender. (both of which were made by Terminal Reality, along with the Fly! and Monster Truck Madness series' that I also played heavily) Was a more primitive engine graphically, but more advanced in the underlying technologies. (similar to the difference between Mechwarrior and Earthsiege) I don't remember much more than that sadly.
  8. No need to indent or oversize letters. We do appreciate the capitalization, punctuation, and paragraph separations though.
  9. Verily I concur.
  10. I don't believe you.
  11. I don't believe you.
  12. I don't believe you.
  13. No he isn't.
  14. You're right... The 100 was moronic in so many ways, it's amazing it got more than 1 season.
  15. 3811 - π
  16. UHF It's one of the most amazing movies of all time.
  17. Back 4 Blood (well worth the Deluxe price IMO) Dungeon of the Endless I don't know if I got more or not, still hyping for Back 4 Blood.
  18. Sounds like fun to me...
  19. Back 4 Blood Makes me feel the same as I did when I first played Left 4 Dead and Half Life 2. Very fun. Even more fun when you have a full squad of 4 people, and are all using voice comms.
  20. I get the feeling that a lot of you think that the UI you want would need less explaining, but would actually need WAY more.
  21. 3805 - ▌
  22. Meh.
