Anyone interested knowing more about me?

It seems Darth Maul is your favorite Star Wars character, so who is your least favorite and why?

Is VGR a semi-large company with employees in an office, or are your employees strictly online? Also, what kind of work do you do with VGR when not online?

Why doesn't Nintendo not make more Wario and Waluigi games?
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
Wario and Waluigi were never particularly popular characters. If I remember correctly, Wario's first appearance was on Game Boy in Mario Land 2 The 6 Golden Coins. Gamers were less than impressed. Most wanted Bowser back. Waluigi was simply made to balance out the adversary. The only place you're going to see them nowadays is Mario Kart. Due to their lackluster appearances, and the minimal attention they got, it would make no sense for Nintendo to make a game based around them. It's already shown to not sell well. -
Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope A great game so far. It's a psychological horror game, which is my favorite kind of horror games. You and 4 others are trying to figure out how to survive after your bus crashes. They end up going to the town of Little Hope. And in true DPA style, every single choice you make influences the entire game. If you're considering trying out the DPA, I highly recommend getting Little Hope first. If you don't want that one, then get Man Of Medan. the entire franchise is awesome. How shocking is it that I haven't played RDR2 for a while instead? LOL😋

Safe to say future consoles won't have physical media/disc drives?
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
Disc drives are already a thing of the past. If you want a disc drive for your computer, you have to buy an external. Mine is a Blu-ray writer and it plugs into 2 USB ports on my computer. I have burned a few music mixes, but never a Blu-ray. The blanks are too god damn expensive. So it's already a thing in the computing world. Gaming will no doubt follow suit shortly. We already have systems that offer no physical support. Xbox Series S is a good example. Also the vast vast vast amount of Nintendo games are DDL's. I personally have 125 DDL's on my Switch. I only hace 23 carts, but many of them are multiple game carts. So purely digital is already showing it's ugly head. Another thought is that it would hurt retail stores like Walmart, because they wouldn't be able to sell the games. They would only sell cards with download codes, but could never match the amount available through the game store on said console. -
What do you think is the worst pay to win video game?
The Blackangel replied to Shortie's topic in Video Games
I don't know if this one really counts, but any of those gem type games, (think Candy Crush) where you have to match certain gems together to clear a section. They're fun, but if you can't beat a level for whatever reason, then you start buying extra moves and turns. Before you know it, you have spent $50. And I truly believe that some of the levels are designed to not be beaten without having bought the extras. -
When do you think we'll see the very first game made via AI?
The Blackangel replied to Kane99's topic in Video Games
Despite how fast technology is moving, I would say it's still a ways off. Sure there are things like the Oculous,(SP?) but true AI is something that a lot of people are afraid of. They get things like the Terminator in their head, which makes them apprehensive about it. True full fledged AI is coming, and sooner than we may think, but is still a long time away. -
The first AC game I tried was actually AC1, and it's what turned me off from the AC games entirely. Simply because of the training sequence at the beginning. It never ends. So for a long time, I just hated the game. Then I got others (I believe AC3) that changed my mind about the series. I had decided to give it another chance. And my mind changed. I even got Assassin's Creed The Rebel Collection (AC Black Flag, AC Rogue) on my Switch. They're great games and I enjoy the hell out of them.

It depends on which system you're asking about. In total, from all the systems we have, I would say at least 40.

I have a simple question that I haven't been able to find an answer to. Is Dishonored playable in third person instead of just first person?

There's a snowboarding game I missed???? Sonofabitch, I have to pay more attention. I have a ton of snowboarding games, but am always on the lookout for more. I was a snowboarder as a kid, and with a little more practice I could have gone pro. Damn I miss it.

Repetition. Do it over and over until you find your style, and know how to use it. For example, with FF8 most people are either magic users or rely heavily on their GF's. Me, the way that works for me is physical attacks. I can kick some major ass doing that. I also know how to junction magic and abilities to the point that I'm almost invincible. So experiment, and repeat until you have your style down. It's what works for me.

Ok, I'm looking to get into playing some of my PS3 games, but I can't choose which one. Bear in mind that I'm mostly a fantasy fan, but do enjoy other genres. I have a decent amount that I have played and love. But the majority I either haven't played at all, or just don't remember playing them and why I would quit. So I'm going to list my PS3 collection so everyone can see what I have and go from there. If you see one with **** beside it, that's one that I remember playing and enjoyed. Assassins Creed 1,2,3 Bound By Flame Castlevania Lords Of Shadows 1,2 ****Dantes Inferno**** Dark Kingdom Dark Souls 1,2 Darksiders 1,2 Defiance (DDL) Demons Souls Devil May Cry 1,2,3,4 Dishonored Dragon Age II Dragon Age Inquisition Deluxe Edition Dragon Age Origins Ultimate Edition (DA Origins, DA Origins Awakening) Dragons Dogma Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion Elder Scrolls V Skyrim Fallen Angel Sacred II Family Guy Back To The Multiverse FFX/X2 ****God Of War 1,2,3, Chains Of Olympus, Ghost Of Sparta, Ascension**** Heavenly Sword Hunted: The Demons Forge Infamous Collection (Infamous, Infamous2, Infamous: Festival Of Blood) Lair Last Of Us, The Ninja Gaiden 3 Razors Edge Reckoning Kingdom Of Amalur Remember Me Rise Of The Argonauts Risen 2 Dark Waters Risen 3 Titan Lords South Park The Stick Of Truth Thief Two Worlds I have played more of these games, but those I either didn't enjoy playing, or quit for some other reason. Hence, I'm not marking them.

I use the same email for just about everything. I do have several at the website I haven't updated in 10 years. But I rarely check them, and only use them as junk filters these days. If I'm signing up for something I don't know if it's legit, I just sue one of them as an email they an connect to. That way my real email is clear an I don't have to deal with a shitload of spam.

2FA - Two Factor Authentication
The Blackangel replied to killamch89's topic in Technology & Gadgets
I use it for a few things. Mainly the important stuff like my bank account app. Things like forums, I don't bother. It's not like I'm important enough to hack at a forum. -
Favorite File Sharing Apps/Webapps
The Blackangel replied to killamch89's topic in Technology & Gadgets
I've used SoulSeek for several years now, and it's great. Thousands upon thousands of users, and searches quick to find you what you're looking for. Someone always has it, and you can search anything you want. -
It's not a typo. Croquet is a lawn game.

Reveal What Job You Should Really Have - SECOND TEST

Damn @killamch89! You got best on EVERYTHING. I guess there's nothing a killa can't do. -
Slow for the most part. Except for last night. I got a hedgie. Here's a couple pics of her. I haven't picked a name yet, but I have a few possibilities rattling around the empty space in my head.

VGR members shouldn’t feel shy to express themselves
The Blackangel replied to Reality vs Adventure's topic in General Chat
It's understandable to be apprehensive about making a post or starting a thread. We all have thoughts second guessing ourselves. Not with every post mind you, but with a lot of them I'm sure. The only thing you can really do is try to get out of your own head. You may be able to offer an insight to the topic that makes everyone understand that topic even better. Just make sure you're on topic even if the conversation has gone off topic, which is a fairly common occurrence unfortunately. You never need to feel embarrassed about making a post. There's somewhere to post it, as this forum covers just about everything somewhere. Obviously there are things that are absolutely forbidden, many of which would warrant an immediate ban and report to the authorities. But if you just use some common sense, then you're good to go. I don't post in a whole lot of topics, because the topic at hand is either something I know absolutely nothing about, or is something I have no meaningful comments to make that would contribute to the conversation at the time I was reading it. As for intimidation, as far as I know @Rain Dew and I are the only lesbians here. -
There was a time that I wanted to try both skydiving and bungee jumping. The problem that blocked me is my extreme fear of heights. I even get uncomfortable someone looking from up high in a movie. When I was in boot camp, we were at the rappel tower and I had my eyes closed as I waited in line, and was constantly saying "two feet up, two feet up" over and over. My drill instructor saw me and asked what the hell I was doing. I told her that I was extremely afraid of heights, so she moved me to the front of the line. She understood, as the fear of heights is an extremely common phobia. While this was happening, we were probably 8 feet off the ground. But then climbing the ropes at the end of the o cor was just as bad because they were 30 feet high. Not a whole lot shorter than the rappel tower.

In the Win98 era, I was damn good at building computers. But that was 25 years ago. Since then I haven't built anything other than a bologna and cheese sandwich.
