Let me install bastion steam!
@RonanForman never
that would have been funnier if I changed my account name to Steam, but I'm too lazy.
I wonder if the other team ever put that stolen armour back?
@RonanForman They probably didn't have time, what with all the dying they did :P
Watching the bit where fredy is walled in makes me feel bad.
But then him not rushing us when I muck up the TNT stops that feeling.

My god @RonanForman, you and @dma sound so much alike
How?!
Racist.

Q: Which file is better to store on a ramdisk?

JitamaroI want to minimize the loading time of Skryim and decided to install a ram disk and hard link one of the big .bsa files in the Skryim data folder. There are 3 .bsa files over 1GB. Which one is the better to offload my hard disk? Here are the choices: Textures, Meshes and Voices. What is the .esm ...

I think it's hilarious when @freddy is walled in
"I don't think they know I'm here. Wait, they do... they walled me in! "
A RAM disk is rather useless in this case.
14:17
Why don't you think @ThomasMcDonald sounds like me, he's british too.
I mean, you've got the same slowdown, except in this case the slowdown is /before/ you launch the game.
Actually, never mind @RonanForman.
@RonanForman I just fake it.
about you sounding like @dma.
It taught me that a faux-British accent is the best way to impress non-native speakers and offend/be ridiculed by native speakers.
14:21
Also, lol. Why didn't fredy rush us when you blew up the wall haha?
@Wipqozn Exactly, I stopped feeling like a dick after I saw that.
I love it when he escapes..
I did it guys... NOOOO!!
I lol'd when you set off that trap btw

I want one.
I don't think we need such a tag.
Agree or disagree?
@Wipqozn I agree. That seems unnecessary.

I doubt there are any other questions which could have that tag, so I don't think we want one.

Speaking of awful tags, I just stumbled upon this: .
Well... There are easter eggs in games... that tag has its place
How to find x easter egg, Is this an easter egg, etc
@Fredy31 You'll learn soon enough that Gaming.SE hates all tags.
That's a meaningless distinction.
The definition of an easter egg is ambiguous to begin with, and we can answer questions about the contents of the game without arbitrarily adding or not adding an easter egg tag.
There are "red things" in games too sometimes.
Do we need a tag ?

Q: How to change items or things in the pouch?

16:51
I agree we don't need an tag, since any questions that seem to ask for "Easter Eggs in game X" are closed, the reasoning normally being "what is an easter egg?"
@ArdaXi I was thinking would be more useful
@StrixVaria I agree.
I guess I'll make another meta question to murder .

UNICORN ATTACK
@GnomeSlice We can't answer it objectively.
You, you can.
Do they go out of their way to make the main character look like a slut, or don't they.
@GnomeSlice What I define as "going out of their way to make the main character look like a slut" might not be the same thing it means to you.
not sure if this will sound awful but there is a sliding scale between "slut" and being feminine
19:26
That cover does not really strike out to me, to be honest.
Exactly, but the types of situations and behaviours they give her in the game are a constant. How I interpret them is up to me.
@GnomeSlice The behaviours are constant. The label isn't.
The question can't be answered in a way that is applicable to a broad audience.
so you essentially want a series of screenshots:?
@ArdaXi Correct. Which means that they can be listed objectively.
@NickT No.
@GnomeSlice That's not the question though.
19:28
Are you people robots?
that's the only legitimate way I can think to answer it
@ArdaXi I worded it poorly.
Have you guys never seen a movie/played a game/read a book?
@GnomeSlice Then reword it and we can consider re-opening.
@GnomeSlice fine, maybe not screenshots but detailed descriptions of how women are portrayed?
picture, thousand words, blah blah
@ArdaXi It's pretty unbelievable.
19:29
Also, @GnomeSlice , what would you think of a ?
@NickT 'I noticed in this game that [character name] was really up in like every male npc's face, and that there were lots of chest shots'
@StrixVaria Yes, it is.
@Ullallulloo Context?
@GnomeSlice Your question and that one about Skyrim for kids.
@Ullallulloo Don't really think it would apply to the one I'm asking about.
No idea.
19:30
@GnomeSlice Is it your job to come up with edge-case questions just to start arguments?

Everyone else will tell you I'm not the person to talk to about which tags are good, and which aren't.
@StrixVaria Leave me alone.
@GnomeSlice Rating doesn't really fit, but all others sound kinda silly.
@GnomeSlice :( It's not a bad job. Someone has to do it.
@Ullallulloo I'm not entirely sure this is something that we expect to come up often enough
Nevermind that "appropriateness" and "moral-content" are both very... questionable descriptors up to interpretation.
19:32
@GraceNote Maybe not, but I think it could be handy.
@GraceNote That's why I like ratings.
Isn't that what the ESRB (or whatever they have in other countries) is for?
You should be able to find that kind of information with a trivial google search.
@StrixVaria Yeah, but it's not super detailed on all games.

Edited.
Great music video, or greatest music video?
@GnomeSlice It still doesn't really ask a question. The only question it asks is " Is the entire game rife with over-sexification of women? i.e. What sort of clothing, behaviours, camera angles, and speech lines are involved?"
Those are still subjective.
No, they're not.
19:35
It can only be answered objectively by providing frame-by-frame screenshots of the entire gameplay plus a transcript of the game dialogue.
@GnomeSlice Define "over-sexification of women" such that everyone agrees on the definition.
That's like saying that that there is a naked woman in the Titanic is subjective.
@ArdaXi I can remove that line if you wish.
You people are just going out of your way to close this question.
You all know what I'm trying to ask.
@GnomeSlice We really aren't.
I just can't word it very well.
@GnomeSlice Reminds me of "Where's Your Head At" by Basement Jaxx.
19:36
@GnomeSlice I know what you're trying to ask, and I know what you're trying to ask is subjective.
I agree that the basis of this question is inherently subjective. There is no incarnation of this question that should remain open.
No, you're wrong.
I'm not asking whether or not the game is offensive.
It's not hard to understand.
Does the game have a lot of this:
He's asking how much it shows stuff, not how good that is.
Or does it have a lot of this:
For God's sake. It's not a difficult concept.
This is why I don't ask things on the site any more.
@GnomeSlice If you're unwilling to understand its policies, I can understand why you get upset over them.
19:39
No, shut up, you people are wrong.
'Are there a lot of suggestive things in the game' would that work
Oh grow up.
It was clothed breasts.
@GnomeSlice If you can't talk about something like this without taking it personally, maybe you simply shouldn't.
I'm trying to make a fucking point.
@GnomeSlice There are people who have this site open at work.
@ArdaXi I'm not taking it personally, I just want my fucking question reopened.
Please calm down.
19:41
@GnomeSlice If you weren't taking it personally, you wouldn't be using inflammatory language.
Why does everything I post get downvoted to hell, and closed.
Also, does anyone know if Worms: Ultimate Mayhem is worth the $3.74?
@GnomeSlice Because you think that it's something against you, not the content, and you are therefore unwilling to change it when we explain why it's closed.
I'm not asking if the game is offensive.
@GnomeSlice Outside of this one incident, you don't have any downvoted/closed questions that aren't flagrantly off-topic postings.
I'm asking for information about how the characters are presented in the game.
19:43
And by that I mean all of those "Why was I banned from chat?" questions.
Whether or not that information is interpreted as 'offensive' is certainly subjective, but it's not part of the question being asked...
@GnomeSlice You're asking about whether the content is sexist. That's subjective. As I've said before, that cover does not strike out to me personally. This shows we have differing opinions, and that it is something people can have differing opinions over.
Those opinions can be equally valid, but it shows that it isn't a good fit for our site.

Q: "Cities in Motion" and "Transport Tycoon"

Does Cities in Motion looks like Transport Tycoon in terms of feature? Please note that this is not a game recommendation, I ...

I'm not asking if the content is sexist. I'm asking how the characters are presented. If there are a lot of oblique boobshots in the cutscenes, you can't try to argue that there aren't. Same goes for the reverse.
"Is the entire game rife with over-sexification of women?"
19:46
Opening statement?
Note the line directly after it.
The only other part of the question is way too open-ended the way it's written.
We can't discuss every single piece of clothing, behaviour, camera angle and speech line in the game.
What about "You should only ask practical, answerable questions based on actual problems that you face."
Is this a practical, answerable question?
No, but you can give a good idea of it after having played the entire thing.
@GnomeSlice Only subjectively.
"Hey guys, I watched 'Demolition Man' recently. It was really violent".
19:47
If I don't find it sexist, what would I answer with?
NO MAN IT'S NOT VIOLENT AT ALL
subjective
STOP TELLING ME HOW TO THINK
Those were all parts of my little roleplay there. About the movie.
Would you try to tell me that the violence of the film is subjective?
@GnomeSlice Yes.
It is.
Are you kidding me.
Why do you think there are like 5 big rating companies out there that rate violence, and they usually have very different results?
19:49
'it's violent' or 'it isn't'.
@GnomeSlice Doesn't work that way.
ESRB often disagrees with PEGI, for example.
I guess a better way to word the question would be 'does the game go out of its way to make sure you know the character is a woman, or is she treated no differently from the male characters'
@GnomeSlice 'it's fun' or 'it isn't'
A game that's 15+ in the UK can be 18+ in the US.
@GnomeSlice Still subjective. I mean, at what point is she no longer treated differently?
In the case of disagreement, it isn't necessarily clear whether it's because one side is too lenient or one side is too strict. It may even be neither.
19:50
Is she wearing male armour?
@ArdaXi That's because the game rating systems are different. The content is still the same.
I guess if we can objectively determine whether something is sexist or violent, we should just also objectively determine whether games are good.
@GnomeSlice Exactly. The content is the same, but the opinions about it differ.
One calls it violent, the other doesn't.
@ArdaXi I'm not asking for opinions, for the last time.
@GnomeSlice You are.
You just don't realise it.
19:51
"Well, there were a lot of shots in the cutscenes that featured close ups of breasts"
@GnomeSlice Subjective.
If that's true, it's true.
Define "a lot"
@StrixVaria Can you not describe a movie you've seen to someone later?
you guys are being far too pedantic
19:52
I can describe it, but only subjectively.
Subjectivity isn't always bad in real life.
It just is on the site.
by saying things like 'It was violent'? 'There was a lot of sex in it'? 'There were a lot of chase scenes'?
@GnomeSlice Those are all subjective.
Not really.
@NickT Every time you talk, I have to go to wiktionary.
@GnomeSlice Yes they are. Like I said, those are things the ESRB and PEGI rate.
19:53
@NickT You should speak up. ♪
If they were completely objective, the ESRB and PEGI would always agree on everything.
@ArdaXi Yes, but I'm not asking for a rating.
You're starting with the argument that "how you interpret the scenes in the game is too subjective" (true), leading to "descriptions are subjective" (true to an extent), and somehow arriving at the false conclusion that "descriptions are too subjective".
@NickT No, we didn't.
We have a policy on our site, basically saying subjective is too subjective.
So, as per that policy, the jump from "descriptions are subjective" to "descriptions are too subjective" is simply logical.
we do?
19:54
@NickT Yes. Otherwise we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Q: Is Skyrim kid friendly?

PearsonartphotoI've heard much about Skyrim, and as I'm going to get an X-Box for Christmas, I'm taking a look at various games to see what might be of interest. I have 3 kids, ages 8-12, and I'm wondering about the appropriateness of this game for younger kids. Thanks!

subjective
I thought our policy was "Too subjective is too subjective"
@ArdaXi What about Good Subjective, Bad Subjective?
I'll just delete the question.
@ArdaXi Ahem, take another look at Good subjective, Bad subjective
19:55
I don't feel like trying to defend it any longer.
Great subjective questions inspire answers that explain “why” and “how”.
We have to allow some measure of subjectivity, if anything, or else we can't even field strategy questions. My latest LoL question has some measure of subjectivity in it, just to drag an immediate example of a fluid strategy question.
This question fails the very first point of Good Subjective.
@StrixVaria No it doesn't, the answer would be like "it does objectify women because of (these scenes or this dialog)"
I was going by the subjectivity policy listed in the FAQ.

Q: How do team tactics differ from 1v1 tactics in Starcraft II?

StrixVariaSo far I have only played 2v2 games in Starcraft II because I always had a friend to play with or because I wasn't confident enough to try 1v1 games. I'm starting to feel a little more confident and want to test my might in the 1v1 ladder. So generally, what tactics work in 1v1 that don't work ...

Subjective.
The good subjective, bad subjective policy has never been very clear to me.
@GnomeSlice How is that subjective?
Not everyone uses the same tactics.
You an answer in a meta sense.
But even then, the use of tactics isn't subjective.
@StrixVaria But not for my question.
Right.

@StrixVaria more to the point, how is Gnome's question much different from "Is Skyrim kid friendly?"
I'm not going to defend that question too hard, because I asked it a year and a half ago.
@NickT It can be answered objectively.
@NickT I voted to close that question.
In my opinion, it's not.
That question is inherently subjective, yes.
But then, I tend to come up with ridiculously conservative policies on this site.

Any close vote on that question is trite now.
The answer shows the subjectivity.
