The Let-It-All-Out: We're Here For You. No, Really.

Where is that Ivolt dude anyways?

Possibly surrounded by massive amounts of purple somewhere.

[crusher]

So Gare what's your opinion on the Duke?

[Gare]

Lots you don't know about me. I love baking too!

Well yeah maybe not a boner but it makes me wanna brofist someone.

Yeah, I never really tried baking myself. I'm not really into cakes/sweets and such. I'm more of a meat person.

That is his default state of being, yes.

Poor child is probably waiting to be summoned. It hasn't been the same since we ran out of sacrifical chickens.

[Gare]

So Gare what's your opinion on the Duke?

I haven't played it. And I don't have the demo, either. Strangely enough, I wasn't that hyped for it and I doubt I'll buy it. But that's usually how it is with me and FPS games, even if it's Duke. I saw Ray's video of it and it seemed okay but not the second coming of Christ. What's your take on it, though?

Sometimes I bake a chocolate cake or chocolate muffins or something like that for various occasions. But I do bake bread every now and then too. Like scones. Scones is good stuff!

Meat is wonderful. Whatever would we do without meat?

[Gare]

We'd be vegetarians.

A terrible fate indeed.

I hope you don't mind me copy-pasta what I wrote in the GG DNF thread:

I've now beaten the game and I'm happy with the final product. It's a solid game despite the somewhat unpolished surface. Enemies, weapons, bosses, Duke's one-liners and the occasional setpieces are always fun. Finding ways to boost Duke's ego is great fun too.

The game has its fair share of issues although it deserves better scores than it's getting. I mean the latest Brofist of Duty: Modern Company 5 always gets great-to-awesome reviews despite the linearity, QTE and other gameplay moments that DNF gets flacked for. It's kinda strange. The regenerating health shouldn't have been there though. The game isn't built for the duck-and-cover gameplay that such a health system forces upon the player and thus some battles are really frustrating.

Hopefully after acquiring the rights to the franchise Gearbox can make the next Duke game, with the feedback they get from this game, in shorter time and on a more up-to-date engine. And as far, far, far, far, far away from George Broussard as possible.

So yeah.

Oh yes... v_v Insta de-boner...

[Gare]

Yeah, I hear people are calling it complete garbage and such. I'm sure the game has issues, but I always take these opinions with a grain of salt. People say the swing mechanics of Bionic Commando are broken, and we both know how much bullshit that statement is.

So I'm guessing it's a fun, mindless FPS. But yeah, I don't get the health regen thing. I haven't even played the game but it so doesn't fit the general gameplay style of Duke 3D.

Bionic Commando <3

Yeah it feels like it's something they decides to slap on for the sake of making it more "modern". It just doesn't work. Same thing with only being able to carry two weapons although that doesn't bother me as much as the health system. Can't wait for the inevitable sequel because in the ending Duke is holding a press conference saying he will run for president! So good!

The new Grabbag is awesome too: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lksnC...eature=related

I really do wanna visit you but I'm not sure exactly when! Not sure how much time I will have this summer...

You don't like it? I'm not too fond of the bananas but everything else is ace stuff!

Thing is, the summer might not be that great for me either. It's better if you find time over a weekend or something once I'm back in my own appartment (living back at my mum's over the summer if I haven't mentioned).

Eh, haven't eaten in in ages, but not my cup of tea.

I just found a photo of a 15-year old me. Damn, I was cute as a button. ^___^ How come girls didn't throw themselves at me? Damn you all.

[Elmdor Rizer]

HELLO GARE!!!!!!!!!

[Gare]

HELLO ELMDOR!! ^_______________________^

It's kinda rare to see you in the regular HO.

Eh we will work something out eventually. I don't plan to hit the bucket yet so there's plenty of time!

You'd love mine! It was so good! :O

Yeah I tend to think about that too sometimes. I was always the friend-zone guy... v_________v
