PAX East Qs and/or As

Is there something you would like our opinion on? Something you'd like to know, something you could ask anyone, but you'd like ME to say the answer for some reason, bookended by scandalous f-words? Here is your opportunity - our form awaits your Qs.

The Divestiny

Because I liked The Division, aside from one or two things I'm perfectly able to live with because I'm aware of what it means to live in a finite universe, I had assumed that Gabriel would not like it. That's typically how this sort of thing shakes out. But not this time! Its starting to look like we might play (and potentially even enjoy) the same game at the same time.

Club PA Comic Preview

By Tycho – February 22, 2016

As I have suggested previously, one of the supernatural benefits of Club PA membership is and exclusive comic and "postito" each month. I occasionally then preview that month's comic for you, like so:

Boulevard Combatant

My primary means of interacting with fighting games these days is watching the output of serious players. I feel like I understand what is happening in a round of LoL - I know the tiny part of a spiral that is writ large when the best players interact with it. The moment to moment aspects of a Fighting Game though, like an RTS, are opaque to me. That isn't to say I don't enjoy trying to even find those primary shapes, and to discover their colors and contours, but I'm one hundred percent on some preschool shit as the metaphor would suggest.

The GOG Whisperer

There's another universe where XCOM2 is how they brought the franchise back; the long fallow period of XCOM's defeat bookended by the oral history of an underground war.

Lurve

Gabriel put out the call, and I answered, but not after giving him a bunch of shit. If someone is your second choice, you need to make them feel as though they were your actual first choice and the other person is garbage can full rancid cottage cheese and weeping cantaloupe rinds. Which, you know… given the people involved… might have been a difficult position.

My Timeline

I like to take photos on my phone as I work. I do this to keep a sort of digital sketchbook I guess. I like to be able to swipe back through my photos and see the work I was doing mixed in with pics of my kids and stuff. I thought I'd drop a bunch of it here and see if you guys found it interesting. So here's a quick dump of the last couple months...minus my kids and some secret projects:)

Decrepitude

I wanted to watch a video about the Skills in The Division, and it asked me my age. I entered "40," which is apparently a number, and it was the first time I had even considered that I might be forty years old.
