Yeah, not very promising there.
The idea of the game is great, though. Simpler than buying tons of figurines :D

Initially, we will support Windows 10 and select Android devices and we will continue to add new platforms after the consumer launch.

4 cores doesn't seem very high-end to me. Ultrabooks are cools for travelling, but trying to get anything done with them in the office, with constant throttling is a big pain.

To celebrate it, I'm going to find one of their games and buy it. Awesome idea, Kalypso!

The last group I used to play with was in Roll20 and I didn't like it at all. Would love to try other VTTs but my take on 5e is usually casual, so it's usually difficult to find parties. Ok, let's face it, my abilities to even search for parties is crap lol

Yes, of course. But what would be of the internet if we didn't try to convince someone else that what we like is better? :P /s

That sci-fi game that had such an absolutely great first part, before somehow managing to turn into an absolute crapfest in its second and third parts. For anyone who not only cares about good game writing but also enjoys reading about good game writing (and writing in general)
Pfff, opinions. ME2 is the best of the three by a huge margin. Primarily due to the fact that it actually does a better job of establishing reasons to care about individual characters rather than just the clinical plot stuff.
That's the whole problem of ME2, though. In a mission of such scale that the whole universe is in peril, caring for individual characters, is a bit ridiculous. And going from a half-science/half-space-magic based story to a drama based story, with stupidity reaching new level with theSpoiler, click me
creation of the humanoid reaper.
I'll continue in spoiler in case someone has not played it yet.
Spoiler, click me
The reapers have been wiping civilizations for eons and it doesn't occur to them that creating a biped reaper with opposable thumbs is better that the squid form until they meet the humans.
Or the fact the humans have been out of their home planet for mere 200 years, and they go from being looked from above, being patronized, etc to be in charge of everything. Where does the last battle happen? In earth.
The propaganda of humans > aliens just because and the deidity of a single character than can be resurrected from death (almost like Jesus) and command the whole galaxy against a huge threat is what destroyed ME2 and 3.
That only at the story level. Killing the mako, cutting exploration, adding bullets to the weapons and adding a bit more of bum and tits here and there deepened the above mentioned fails.
Basically all of what you said boils down to: things you don't like vs things you like vs. things other people like vs. things other people don't like.
There's no objectively good or bad here. We don't all want the same things from games/stories. If you don't like the thing, maybe the thing just is not for you and you can move on.
Yes, of course. But what would be of the internet if we didn't try to convince someone else that what we like is better? :P /s

Sorry, I had seen £ and not $. Still, for $80 more I believe the advantages of the Moonlander makes it worth.

Quoting: EagleDeltaQuoting: ArehandoroI have the Moonlander from ZSA, it cost me less, equally configurable, ergonomic and more portable. It would be a no brained for anyone willing to pay that money on a keyboard.
I must be blind then, because when I look up the moonlander, it's base cost is about $80 more than the Launch
