My experience with Beyond: Two Souls was an interesting one.
General | Posted 12 years agoI rented it from Redbox a couple days ago, and played it nearly nonstop. I only stopped once because I had to go to bed and work the next day.
While there is still a lot in it that I want to do (and I may either own or rent it sometime in the future just to do those things), the stuff I did still made my experience nice. I couldn't put it down for a second until I had to because I was so enthralled on how the story would play out, and where the twists would lead to next.
The game is less like a game and more like an interactive television series (the way the story unfolded seemed too much like a serial than a movie) like Heavy Rain (which I should get eventually), and honestly I think that works more. The story in all its anachronistic glory is given a much tighter focus, and that is the MAIN reason you'd want to play this game.
If story is what you're after, then you should really give Beyond: Two Souls a try. It's not the most gameplay heavy, but it should hopefully keep you on the edge of your seat.

Need some help for a friend...
General | Posted 12 years agoI know you guys don't really know me much, and I don't expect a lot because of that, but one of my friends had to be hospitalized. He managed to get out of it okay, but he has no insurance...his bill's gonna be pretty high because of that.
I don't know what else to really do, which is why I'm asking if any of you would like to donate and help him...
I also don't expect you guys to just give him money for nothing, so I will do commissioned stories as well, just to help him get back on his feet...
Send any and all donations on paypal to alienpmac45[at]yahoo.com
For those that want a story out of it, note me about it and I'll get the details assorted, and you can send it to my paypal (where it will directly be sent to his.)
Just...please help...

Reopened commissions.
General | Posted 12 years agoJust gonna do a flat $20 rate, and if you feel like paying more that's your okay. But minimum would be $20.
Rather than a list of Dos and Don'ts, I'll just have a few don'ts.
-Scat-
-Watersports-
-Snuff-
-Heavy Gore (if in a sexual context, if it's because of a non-sexual fight scene, will be okay. Same for Snuff)-
-Vore of Any Kind-
Not sure if I'm missing anything really. But other stuff is fair game.
EDIT: Oh yeah, just email me at Merrinrattas[at]yahoo.com or note me with all the details and your paypal address so I can send a request.

Okay, might have to change how I do commissions...
General | Posted 12 years agoAs I mess with a little story I'm working on, I realize just how difficult sticking to a specific word count will be. That was actually a pretty bad idea...
So for the moment, I'll just figure out a flat rate and vary a little according to just general desired length (short, average, ongoing, etc.)

General | Posted 12 years agoThe stupidity that is RiotGames and why I stopped supporting
General | Posted 13 years agoSo recently, RiotGames, the creators of League of Legends, tried to do something with the new visual rework of Annie: They wanted to set up a sale for Goth Annie, a skin that is normally gotten through a special bundle that costs a significant amount of money which isn't worth it if you have most of everything on it.
The issue? The community had apparently been torn in half by this. One half thought the skin should stay exclusive because they paid 3900 Riot Points just for the skin (around $20 or so), while some wanted to actually be smarter with their money and wait for the sale.
Unfortunately, within an hour of posting the announcement, it got downvoted enough times that Hippalus revoked the sale from happening because of all the complaints gotten. Bull. Shit.
The reason this was a horrible way to handle it are as follows:
1) The common complaint was that it would ruin the exclusive nature of the skin. The skin wasn't exactly exclusive, because while the skin was bundle only, it wasn't impossible to get, it was just really expensive due to the status of being in a bundle. If you had everything in the bundle, the skin wouldn't be worth it. (At most prework-wise, it'd be 520RP) This sale, in general, would've been an actual price-reduction to what would be normal for the skin after the rework.
2) The knee-jerk reaction. RiotGames waited simply an HOUR after the announcement before deciding to revoke the sale. That is hardly a good timeframe to get all the answers. It was beyond irritating for those of us excited for the sale, whether we wanted the skin or not.
3) The hypocrisy. The reasoning for revoking the sale was because of the downvotes alone. This has NEVER stopped Riotgames from doing stupid stuff before (Dark Valkyrie Diana, 1000RP fiasco, etc.), so why should it affect their judgement now?
All in all, they have proven to me as unsupportable, and I have since quit the game for good. They are inconsistent, make poor decisions both in balance and in general, and seem to care more about being a part of the community as friends and jokesters than to actually work on their game to the best of its capabilities. Eventually people will see this as more and more bad decisions come to light, and their company will go under, despite its growing popularity. But that day, sadly, will be years to come.
And for the record, I get a lot of people telling me in other topics such as this that I acted irrationally and kidlike and have no concept on the business aspects. Just to warn you a little.

'Tis silly to think I am still alive.
General | Posted 13 years agoI am not a perfect person by any stretch of the imagination. I messed things up, I ruined friendships, I acted irrationally...now I wish I could take it all back.
I used to be in love, and in fact I still sort of am. The guy defended me when he could, helped me through some hard times, and we spent every moment together.
But that all changed...While he was still the same, I started to act irrationally. I started playing with other people more (open relationship) online on Second Life, and he was feeling neglected. But he found hope with another person while I was completely oblivious.
Eventually things ended, and slowly we kept trying to make things work...then I made the biggest mistake of my life: I decided to lose my virginity (well after the Borderlands 2 contest.) And not with a person I knew...that just ended things even more with my old flame, and in the end he wanted nothing more to do with me...
I realize all I did was wrong, but it doesn't matter...nothing will change between he and I, and I will be doomed to know I ruined the best thing I had, and I have no one to blame but myself...

Trying out a new series known as Game Journals.
General | Posted 13 years agoThe basic idea is that I play through an RPG and write about it from the perspective of the main character, generally a silent protagonist. In this way, I give him life through words and whatnot! :3 I did this at one point on a game called White Knight Chronicles and it went well, however...typing with a PS3 controller is hard. :x
Anyways, tell me what game I should play and what class of that game in the comments below, and I might consider it for the story. If I get no responses in a few days, I'll just find one of the RPGs I have and use that.

$10 for 1000 words, $5 for each additional 500. In other words, $1 per 100 words.

Also, I need help with learning paypal so I CAN do this in the first place. Just general information is all.
