I haven't finished but I've definitely enjoyed it so far. There's some frustrating areas (for stars) that are really rewarding to get and some that are like what the heck.
Making decent $$ but I won't get home until after 7 tonight and I'm gonna miss trick or treating.
I know I'm not an absentee father or a workaholic or anything, not even close, but having to be the guy that misses things with his kids even occasionally to support the family is not where I wanted to be. Really feeling it today.

I think it's top 2 on my list of puzzle games. Although my list isn't very expansive in that regard.
I played the witness and thought that was a pile of shit whereas other people loved it and I can't quite wrap my head around how they can like it. The only logical reasoning is brain damage. All the puzzles involved the same mechanic and had no information on how to solve them other than trial and error and it was tedious and far too much effort for little reward. It was pretty though so there's that.
Also doctor strange was really good, I heavily recommend. Some of the characters are husks of subplot that are basically irrelevant but the special effects and just general doctor strange bits are amazing, I'm always in awe of sfx department skill. I definitely recommend imax 3d because the 3d is really well done and it's made for 3d instead of an afterthought. I normally get headaches watching 3d but not in this which was nice. Maybe I'm biased because of marvel vs capcom love though.
Has anyone read the comics? Kind of makes me want to get into them.

I liked The Witness in general. The basic mechanic was fine except when it was frustrating. The "story" was fuckstupid tho.

The double language in s03e05 is breaking my brain
I only watched the pilot, and I was like "WTF".
Although I hear the whole show is nothing like the pilot.
each episode is independent and based off some sci fi short story, i think.
i think im on episode 4, so i'll watch 5 tonight probably. all pretty enjoyable, and i feel like they made 4 a little less heavy b/c the previous 2 were kinda sad.
1. rating 2. VR 3. internet ransom thing 4. other VR (again)

Liquid MTG incoming?
Liquid getting a MTG crew would be odd. The market is so niche that without selling product most people have no reason to visit for articles and such unless your just better than the other guys who do.
Which is pretty close to impossible considering that most every pro and hof player already writes for scg or CFB.
That said, I'm super tempted to soft ban MTG in the Skype thread because it appears to be all we talk about. Alaric doesn't even give me a chance to troll him on anything else because 90% of his content is that.

We'll if you consider who the only active members of the Skype chat are who are left, and then if you consider that Alaric out-types anyone in there 4:1...
Would y'all be into me running a blades in the dark game for some of you guys?? I've been enjoying the game for a while now and now that John got on roll play I expect more of you have been exposed to it??

Depends. Rate your commitment on a Pacelena scale.
