  1. If Equestria Girls was to get a sequel I wouldn't mind if they did this. It sounds quite interesting in fact. Otherwise I'd prefer humans kept as far away from Friendship is Magic as possible. Then again if EQG was to get a sequel ,from Hasbro's point of view, it'd be to promote another set of dolls so I'm not sure they'd do this.

  2. I love the Silent Hill series! I haven't had the chance to play all the games but I did play SH 2, 3, Origins, Shattered Memories, Homecoming. I loved all of them with the exception of Homecoming (still enjoyed it but to a lesser degree). Very suspenseful, weird games with a unique atmosphere and well written stories. Stories that will make you think. I'd like to give a chance to Downpour and SH4 sometime but I heard they are a bit different from the rest of them. Then again Shattered Memories is nothing like other Silent Hill games either.

  3. Usually, when I say "in my opinion" it is because I'm I'm a bit insecure or unsure how people will react to what I have to say. I don't use it to avoid having to justify my arguments I use it to introduce something into a conversation which could make somebody react one way or another. I don't state it as fact so I wouldn't offend anyone, instead I say in my opinion to let people understand that that's the way I think and I'm perfectly fine if they disagree with me and would happily hear their reasons.

     

    Guess the meaning of this phrase depends a lot on the context and the intention behind it.

  4. Anime seems to be a great motivating factor and source of knowledge for Japanese it seems :)! I'd like to learn it too because of anime and to be able to play videogames which didn't make it overseas for one reason or another.

  5. Ah, the 80s Transformers movie! If only the Michael Bay movies were this awesome. That soundtrack. I need to watch this again.

     

    Never seen the show itself but I love the movie.

  6. Well besides English and Hungarian (the two languages I speak well) I really like Japanese. Would like to learn it sometime. And I might be a minority on this but I really like the way German sounds. I'm learning German right now and I find it really hard and confusing but I'm enjoying it!

  7. Yes and no, have her still hate the rest of the 6, but have her make up with Dash regardless. It'd show that some of your friends may not get along with others

    I second that! That's a great idea. Every adversary getting redeemed would get really boring after a while. This is a bit deeper than that and if executed well it could even make for an interesting dynamic between Gilda and RD if they decide to involve Gilda in future episodes.

     

    The show should show us more Gryphons too. Maybe even their homeland! Just don't characterize all of them after Gilda. Don't make them all be upstuck assholes. That would be one dimensional and disappointing.

  8. I have only played the original Dead Rising but I liked that one! I enjoyed how free I was to tackle objectives and side missions and pretty much do whatever I want within the time given to me. Felt very organic that way. The controls are okay for the most part. Except for shooting and throwing objects. That was horribly done. The story is nothing much to talk about. It's there it gives context to what happens and it's just not worth mentioning beyond that. The psychopaths (bosses) are fun but I didn't really find anything really cool about them. Still, they bring little personality to the game and that's always great.

     

    Most people seem to dislike the time limit. I didn't. I think it added another element to the game which helped shaped the events withing the story, made situations actually feel urgent (because if you didn't act in time it could have fatal consequences for some people) and another element of management. Again, giving the game a more organic feel.

     

    All in all, despite it's faults I enjoyed Dead Rising. I wouldn't call it a classic but it's a lot of fun.

  9. Well to be honest I curse a lot too. It just comes naturally sometimes even if I try to avoid it. Still, I nothing as bad as the girl mentioned. I can see why that could be annoying. Especially since there is a girl kinda like that in my class. She doesn't curse that much but she starts shouting for the smallest of things sometimes and (not to be impolite but) she can get on my nerves.

  10. This is a religion I have recently discovered but I'm very interested in. A few years ago I had kind of a "crisis of faith" (to clarify I'm not religious and I wasn't at that time either) where I did a lot of research on different religions to see if any fits. But none of them felt right to me. But this kinda does for some reason I can't really describe. I think it's time to look into it a bit more.

  11. Well, I can name two off the top of my head:

     

    Trapt

    I originally bought this game just because I heard it was rare and I really enjoy collecting PS2 games. I heard it wasn't a very good game so I was caught off guard by how unique the gameplay is. Sure the story falls into the so bad it's awesome category (especially those little last comments from your enemies before their deaths. Oh god, those were funny laugh.png ) but the game is well worth the price of admission.

     

    Persona 3 Portable

    I was expecting to find a good game in this case but never imagined P3P would become pretty much my favorite game of all time. The story, characters and gameplay come together so well they make this an experience nobody should miss. It was life changing for me and I rarely say that about works of fiction.

  12. This definitely isn't something that would tear us apart I think. Though from the way some reacted to Alicorn Twilight and the whole love interest thing in Equestria Girls I can't be sure of that. Hasbro would never greenlight something like this of course and it would be really out of tone for MLP but since a lot of us watch this show to see these characters and different issues explored (as well as the fun slice of life and occasional adventure element) this would be something interesting to see. I can't judge the reaction of the fandom but I think most of us would come to terms with it eventually if it was pulled of well. 

  13. - Do something that will make me go down in history like Rudolf the Red Nosed Reindeer.

     

    -Actually finish writing a story (hopefully a kickass novel)

     

    -Work as a movie director and maybe work in the gaming industry in some capacity

     

    -Find out how many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop

     

    And my greatest and stupidest dream:

     

    - Have you ever seen Hot Tub Time Machine? Fanboys? Sex Drive? Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle? Yeah, I want to go through a Road Trip Adventure like that :)!

  14. I liked the idea when I first saw it. I still do I just think it wasn't pulled off well. Still, with the opening of Season 4 being pretty much a continuation of Magical Mystery Cure from what I've heard, a lot of things remain to be seen. I won't judge until the "story arch" (can't think of a better word right now) is over and we actually see how much it affects the show.

  15. Sleeping Dogs is a really awesome game in my opinion! Combat and really every game mechanic is very well done (shooting is a bit clunky but it doesn't have much focus). I was really excited for it last year. The story had more potential I think but it was still pulled of convincingly. The game felt like a Triad action movie which is always great. Can't wait for the sequel :D!

  16. I think it depends a lot on the given child. I'm not gonna lie I have been playing Grand Theft Auto since a pretty young age too. It didn't affect me all that much I believe. Though today's games are a lot more graphic. If I was a parent, I definitely wouldn't like my children to get their hands on stuff like GTA V. Not until they are mature enough to fully understand it. Which comes for everybody at a different age I believe.

     

    Still, 4 year old kids? Yeah,that is way too young. I still would allow my children to play games if they wanted to but I would maintain a lot of control over what they play.

  17. I think G4 still has a bit ahead of it. FiM is still very popular and Hasbro will keep it alive as long as they make money on it. And there are a still a lot of possibilities with these characters and with this setting for new stories. Of course we will see what happens after Season 4 but I'm pretty sure we are gonna make it to Season 5 or 6 at least.

     

    As for G5, only time will tell. I hope it will carry on the legacy (and fandom of G4) while finding it's own identity. I think most bronies will give it a chance and since the "real target audience" is always there ,learning from G4 I think the team behind G5 will try to attract bronies too.

  18. I played it with friends every day for the better part of a month. It was fun for a while and then we all agreed to quit. Haven't really had the desire to go back since. It was a lot of fun playing it together and I think we managed to avoid the worst of the LoL community because we didn't have many negative experiences.

     

    League of Legends is a fun game but it get's really repetitive after a while (even with all the different characters). At least it did for me.  

  19. Hello and welcome to the forum Flutter :D! Hope you have an awesome time here. If you want to chat sometime feel free to write to me.
