The Mind Of OverlordTomala

Cyan at E3

If anyone wants some Rand talk and Obduction eye candy, here it is:

I find it funny how at the end of the PC Gamer interview Rand had to say that The Stanley Parable was one of his favorite games. If only the rest of the Myst/Uru Community knew that him (and others) had a sense of humor… and learned how to develop one.

One can dream. 😉

Skyrim Remastered will be a free upgrade on PC

Seems lots of interesting news came out of E3 from Bethesda today, including this little gem.

If you own #Skyrim and all its add-ons or own Legendary Edition on Steam, you’ll get a free upgrade to Skyrim Special Edition on Oct 28 #BE3

A wonderful side effect to it becoming part of the current gen consoles. My only hope is that nothing bad happens to peoples savegames and mods.

Hell hath no fury like I do

My R9 Fury arrived today!

I’m quite impressed with it so far. I’ve mostly been doing some in game benchmarks and gameplay with it. There is quite a difference between the Fury and my old R9 290. I did some Skyrim test recordings earlier, recording was good before but now it’s even better. I still have plenty of tweaking and refining to do, but it is my weekend after all. Time to go nuts. 😛

More Lara Croft fun coming to Linux

Temple Of Osiris has been spotted as another possible candidate for my (and others obviously) another great game to run under Linux.

If you haven’t played it already I recommend it. It’s fun to play by yourself, but a LOT more fun playing with other friends even if you try to screw each other over. Here’s some of best gameplay bits:

Totally didn’t see this coming

People stealing mods from PC to put on the console? Color me fucking shocked…

Fallout 4 mods have been live on the Xbox One version of the game for a week now, marking a first for the series. While no-one can argue that expanding mods to console gamers is a good thing, what isn’t a good thing is when unscrupulous types simple steal content from PC mods and re-upload it as their own work on the Xbox One version, which is something that is reportedly happening.

The Selfie Statue… It’s a thing

Brought to us by good ol Texas!

Some residents of Sugar Land, Texas, say they’ve been left with a bitter taste in their mouths after a city-approved selfie statue was recently erected outside City Hall.

Not so sweet, eh?

The selfie statue and another statue, of a seated man playing a guitar, cost an estimated $32,500 combined, including $10,000 for installation, according to the agenda. Along with four lesser-valued pieces, the statues cost $77,660. The cost of the entire 10-piece collection was unclear. It is also unclear how much money was donated.

To be fair, the statues do look extremely well done including the selfie one… I can understand the other statues though, the selfie one I don’t get. But meh, everything’s bigger in Texas… Including Selfie Stupidity.
