I think that might've been some of the thought behind the new zombie mechanics, for assaulting secure areas. Problem is, zombies can't break wooden doors on 2/3rds of the available difficulty settings. Even if they could, nothing breaks blocks so just dirt would be an acceptable replacement for any sort of door. So even though they could do these things, it doesn't really make any sort of difference and just makes the new mechanics a mild annoyance.

told ya

Ain't nothin' desperate about it br0, libraryscape is boss. WC ivy while looking for a good book to read? Yes please.

Probably because they're like 13 and 10 respectively and their biggest concern in life is whether or not mom will buy them their favorite cereal.

Moved to general guides.

Anything over 16bit needs some sort of patcher iirc, unless that changed with the conversion of resource packs. Optifine usually works just fine in that case.

Calling someone who is helping others quit a game they're addicted to after breaking the cycle of addiction for themselves is like slapping a sponsor in the face at an AA meeting. It's completely insensitive regardless if you don't think the video is an effective learning tool. So long as it's not detrimental or it doesn't aid in relapsing, there's nothing wrong with it. I understand the general population is really tired of seeing people who should've long since quit come back to attack the game. That isn't the purpose of this video. If you don't like it, give constructive criticism, but let's not attack it while portraying it to be something that it isn't.

Oh okay hang on.

i forgot this blog exists sometimes

That's because it was made popular on reddit and passed around by word of mouth afterwards. And you know how things get foggy the more it gets passed from person to person...Well.

According to /r/Gamedeals, Far Cry 3 is on sale now for $25 USD and isn't listed on the summer sales page. Additionally, Far Cry 1 & 2 are on sale for only a few dollars a piece.

Apparently his father tweeted about his death being related to his severe sleep apnea.

1week later oh man i should post an update............meh

Yet if this godly power exists, it comes from somewhere. Siphon enough of this godly power and what's to stop that person from becoming an idol of misguided worship all over again? That's if everyone and their mother could siphon. There is a chance that whatever Guthix did to us allowed us to divine things and siphon them off, which means we would be the only person capable of performing divination. But that's stretching it, so let me get back to my original point.. Why would we be wasting time distributing stuff like this, and not what already exists? Something not tied to a "tainted well" so to speak and fully in the hands of the inhabitants of Gielinor? It just feels like what we did in the past (which was quite considerable even before the Gods decided to start mucking things up) doesn't mean much at all. That's why I'm hoping for more official information soon. I know all of these things can be explained by other theories, but they just don't sit well. Divination of itself sounded swell on its own, but I just can't see the motivation for us as players to use it to work in new technologies. Cres was awesome, but the work of the gods. Sixth age circuit is awesome, but not the design of any worldly creature. The Ascended were the work of the Virius Ocellus, fused with Guthix's energy, and they went mad and set up a mindless Guthix-beast to worship. Nothing good has come of us [bleep]ing with the energy of the Gods. Why would they merrily let you tap into the essence that is them or powering them unopposed? Why would we want to? We've got the tools to take them on as it stands seems like. [hide=Slight tangent here of speculationscape]Feels like that we're doing this and maybe tap into a source of power tied to the Elder gods. The elders, by the way, who we know next to nothing about. Some of which are decidedly nasty little fellows (the Elder God of Frenenskarakdfidfsaolk for example.) And they're starting to remember that Gielinor exists. If what we siphon from these godly energies are at any way tied to them, we're screwed. So what, we'd aggravate the Elders, causing the Gods fighting over Gielinor to help you defend against the angry Elder Gods, and it'd be over in one brief battle. That feels almost as cheap to me as the dragonkin swooping down and killing Lucien, then [bleep]ing off to god knows where never to be heard of again. [/hide] It's like just as everything is coming to an epic climax, it kind of...deflates a bit. I just don't want the same to happen again. That's kind of why I'm unsatisfied with the current theories about how Divination will "usher in a new technological age of Gielinor". (E: A lot of revision and (slightly) less runon sentences. Sorry!)

TBH that is how I assumed they worked when dual wielding was still in its infancy. As people researched into the matter and found that it was not the case, I was a little shocked to be honest. Wasn't the whole point of the EoC to stop people from doing just this very thing to "cheat" the system, be it in levels or gear? I'm sure there was a justification for it, I just can't really say it was easily spotted for me. It's a good reason conceptually but it doesn't make a lot of sense following the other trends in equipment and how they function does it? Wouldn't that be why so many people didn't use offhand drygores because there were cheaper equivalents because it grabbed its accuracy from the mainhand, or something along those lines? (Please correct me if I'm wrong, I haven't been watching the whole dualwielding goofiness very closely.)

Which is why I crossed out the first half of my post and closed with my admission to my mistake. I'm glad we're on the same page again but surely this is getting a bit tiresome just repeating back and forth what we're saying, no? :P

More like a podcast than just a video. Also, moved to RS Media

This is exactly what I just said. How exactly would divination spread these technologies? And why would we turn to divination to usher the world into a new technological age, when these things already exist? Why would we force the world into a new age dependent on the energies divine energies we're siphoning? That doesn't clear anything up at all, which is why I'm looking forward to more information. ...which is almost exactly what I just said too >_> So I guess at least we're on the same page...

From a campfire later that month I think we were told that wouldn't be coming until next year. I'll try to find it but @_@ EDIT: Oh lovely they made wiki articles for all the Q&As, that's real handy. Here we go: http://services.runescape.com/m=rswiki/en/Campfire:RuneScape3 Summoning was already pinned to being next year to bring it in line with EoC; agility I thought was actually rumored to come out this year but I guess not; smithing was something we never really had a date on But re-reading this quote I see that I'm quite mistaken. I interpreted the answer from mod Pips to include Con in the rework list for next year. Re-reading that I see I was wrong. WOO that's the best game-related news I've heard all week. All aboard the construction train, toot toot.

Saw two things in the video that were quite confusing: 1) "We're pushing into a new technological age." Mentions steam engines and thermal-powered things from the dwarves, electricity from the cave goblins. The gnome's engineering using is another example of technological marvels that aren't commonplace in RS right now. "And we're spreading that technological age using the two new skills, one of them being divination!" Wait what. But the technology is already there without having to "divine" for it. That doesn't make sense. I hope to see that cleared up later on and sincerely hope it's not something that will just be left dangling. 2) "Opens up for all new possibilities like going to the home of the vampyres/demons/icyene" Except we were told that going to faraway places wouldn't be likely. It was literally the whole reason why we hadn't got a new continent yet. And this was quite recently repeated in one of the last Q&A sessions. So why would they tease that if it wasn't possible? Or are we going to have another Yubusik (sp?) that no one returns to except for an obscure comp cape requirement? Or will these simply take precedence over the long-awaited eastern lands? It will be interesting to see how that plays out. Kind of frustrating being left with so many questions like that so late in the year! I loved the video though and I'm still excited for what's to come, don't get me wrong. I just hope I don't have to wait another 5 years for it all to come to a head :3

It might be one, but that shattered sword we saw on the dolmen that we couldn't touch was one. Still REALLY pisses me off that we couldn't take it, nor could we go back to it. Oh yeah there's about to be a gigantic war soon let's just leave the materials of a powerful Elder Artifact there for anyone to take. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OOpH4R6SkNA

Agreed. And I hate cat AI. Yeah I get why he made it like that (FOR TE LOLZ TANKS NOTCH D:!@#!@#@!) but really, it's annoying. In fact, anything that has to follow you in that game and not be a liability is a god damn joke. It's actually why I hated the "theme" of 1.6 (horses). We didn't need another stupid follower while foundation for those things was just plain broken.

I bought Fallout 3 around 6 months ago and for some reason I have never been able to run it, it just crashes. I know a lot of other people have the same issue so I thought I'd give a heads up For almost every crash bug there's a workaround. Good to be aware such a problem exists, but I wouldn't let that stop you from picking up a pretty good game (And get FO: New Vegas if you haven't besides!)
