OdinYggd Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 The first was a basic prototype, Portal 2 was the main eventThis.Portal itself was a proof of concept more than anything else, just pushing the game engine to its limits and seeing if the results would be popular. Portal2 they actually went through and made it a real game as well as hooking it neatly into the HL2 timeline. Also Chobit you've done a horrible thing. I'm watching the first episode of Battle Ship Yamato right now, and probably will get more of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flymetothemun Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Not a big game player. But the ones I do play, if they have a storyline, holy COW do I get emotionally involved. Take Minecraft, for example. I make up the story as I go. Or tell different stories depending on what I'm doing in the world. Heck, I have one world dedicated to set design for Stories-I-Want-To-Tell-But-Lack-The-Writing-Ability. That said, I have heard great things about both Portal and Mass Effect. And I do wish to play them. Someday. I used to get emotionally involved, but then I got the end credits from Minecraft. They left a Mark on me forever. Now, if i'm feeling unconfident, unhappy, or angry, I just look up a video of the end credits and It calms me down and makes me happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ROFLCopter64bit Posted May 21, 2013 Author Share Posted May 21, 2013 Actually, can I say that not having watched a full episode of Yamato?Can I say Adventure Time is a good show when I am an avid fan of it and have seen every single episode of it? I guess so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Designer225 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 That was war. Be careful, when two sides are on a long war, usually with similar strength, usually the third party wins because both of the fighting sides are tired and not focusing on the third party.

OdinYggd Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 This could be bad.Indoctrination? This is one of the few Anime that I've been hooked on after a single episode. I usually wait until episode 4 to judge it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time I got that far, I watched them and just sat in shock for like, ten minutes... "and the universe said I love you because you are love."I should mention, I was going through a highly depressed state. Still am, actually. But reading the credits... makes me feel like someone cares. And that's all I need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OdinYggd Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Just have to nitpick one little detail of SBY2199 episode 2. Why do they always have to wait for flywheel spin up when starting the engines in these things. Unless they're using flywheel type power conditioning which in a space application would double as a gyro and reaction wheel, its kind of redundant.But so far I like it. Kind of gives the impression of Evangelion level give it everything or be dead, with a much easier to appreciate scifi storyline. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chobit-389 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 SBY (original) was one of the main influences of NGE. As for the flywheel, no idea!

chobit-389 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 The trick is not to use an orbital laser, that is far too costly and bulky. My designs are based on a fixed-aim ground-based laser and numerous reflecting satellites to bounce the beam around the parent world to either strike a target on it's surface or fire the beam at any angle into space.Bam, I've defeated your weapons. There is no way to spot ALL of the satellites, let alone firing at them, without moving within range of detection by both ground-based or orbital observatories.No fancy shields, no OP'd doomsday lasers, just enough power aimed at just the right spot.Satisfied? Or do I REALLY have to get crafty? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canopus Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Wouldn't a stationary laser be very vulnerable? Put it on a submarine or something that can hide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwolfy Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 no what you need is to have it underground with a firing port that only opens when you fire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chobit-389 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Not vulnerable at all if you know how to properly defend your position. And using reflecting satellites I can hit at any angle with that all important 2 light seconds of range with a line-of-sight of YES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specialist290 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 All you really need is a knife and a plan.And maybe Mystic Eyes of Death Perception, but some people consider that "cheating."And my plan currently is to stay underground until this whole thing boils over, and stab anyone who tries to involve me with the knife.
