One of the most epic games of all time and still in the alpha. You start with nothing and try to make everything. An infinite world (well it stops expanding around eight times the size of the earth but you'll never touch and end) to endlessly explore. And it's 50% until the beta version =o Does anyb...

I read The Annals of Imperial Rome by Tacitus and was greatly disappointed at the loss of many sections on Nero and Caligula. After I finish reading Ab Urbe Condita (over halfway there....) and AATE of course, I will definitely have to pick this up. Though if you haven't, read The Annals. They're ex...

I haven't seen the scene from ToT in The Ghaddi's Punishment where Hergrom is, against all odds, beating the Sand Gorgon and then it slams him into the wall There was nothing Hergrom could do. He was caught between the Sandgorgon and the hard stone. Tremors like hints of an earthquake shuddered thro...

Well, with something that traumatic, I think you'd remember it. Or at the very least, the gist of it.

I want to know how the Worm of the World's End is dealt with first and foremost. I would assume that the Theomach plays a large part given his name meaning battle against the gods but the gods could just as easily be the Elohim . Speaking of Elohim , what are they going to do about it too? Will they...

Their highschools are quite different. Wanting to expose them to all the different extremes of life, they base them off of this model:

I just got Counter Strike: Source because Steam was having a weekend deal where it was 75% off ($5) but I think I'm going to 'get' a 'copy' of Fire Emblem 4 and a good translation and play through that again

A Total War mod for the Berek Era would be awesome. You can have the different factions be the Queen's Realm and the King's Realm, with the different Forestals, the Viles, the Cavewights, and even Foul's demesne

Through my entire first read-through of the second chronicles, I never picked up that Vain was human shape =/ Anyways, on to actual CC. A few questions about Vain. Was he really as tall as Findail? (I always saw him being tall, like 6'1" or so and Vain being shorter, around 5'7") And did V...

I guess. It still seems like a really far stretch for me to say that I can relate to Thomas Covenant. Maybe it's just the title. When it says "can you really relate," I guess I just thought of it on a more literal sense

I'm really surprised that 18 of 22 people said that they relate to Covenant. I'd like to see how people think they relate to a social pariah with one of the deadliest diseases in the world :?

I think the picture of the soldier was a bit of a joke, Hue was just having fun and not being serious. Maybe just seeing what he could make. And hey, I'm not complaining, keep up the good work
