I loved the first game, but for some reason I was never able to stick with the second. I think it had something to do with the artificially steep difficulty curve. Even with all the right spells and equipment, some of the fights are such bullshit.
I heard Marcus Beer on some podcast recently - I think it was Weekend Confirmed - and he came across as one of the biggest assholes I had ever heard. He was so annoying, bitchy, and vile that I eventually had to turn off the podcast because I couldn't stand listening to him any longer.
It's a shame about with happened with Phil Fish. But really, the moral of the story is fuck Marcus Beer. The guy's an ass.
The only thing that I've bought (or plan to buy) for myself was Borderlands 2. However, I was also gifted FTL and Don't Starve, both of which are freaking hard as hell. I also bought my cousin a copy of Total War: Shogun 2, but it turns out that he doesn't really like that game. Oh well. It's the thought that counts, right?
Just a heads up: Dota 2 is now officially out and free to download by all. It can be found in the free to play section of Steam. Hope to see you all in-game!
I'd like to have a movie marathon of some of Ryan's favorite movies, but I don't know which ones were his personal favorites. I've heard them talk about dumb action movies on the podcast for years, but when I try to think of particular movies, nothing comes to mind. Could you guys help me out?
