The Bridge

General Arqade Chat. We tried to leave once, but the door lock...

@GnomeSlice Well, good to know some things haven't changed.
Aug 12, 2015 17:01
@GnomeSlice Occasional answers here and there, but since I don't tend to play "current" games, I don't have a lot to contribute either in terms of questions or answers.

I'm trying to see if I can spark any interest on the site in my latest devotion, the Hex TCG.
Aug 12, 2015 16:59
I still lurk, but I haven't been on chat in ages.
Aug 12, 2015 16:58
Wow, its obviously been a while. I hardly recognize anyone here. Well, except Gnome.

Yep. It will be interesting to see if Hex becomes a thing here. It looks like it could be pretty popular, but maybe that's just because I'm into it.
Nov 5, 2013 18:41
What we really need to have happen is have some of the experts on BCG start answering questions here too.
Nov 5, 2013 18:40
Not to mention rules questions. I don't think we have many experts on the stack here, where BCG has them in spades.
Nov 5, 2013 18:39
Yah, but I think things will get even cloudier with Hex. The rules are VERY close to Magic, so people over there might be better at strategy questions. But since it is online only, it doesn't make sense to ask over there.
Nov 5, 2013 18:38
I was thinking of hextcg.com, but Hearthstone is a start
Nov 5, 2013 18:38
To the people that are trying to migrate the Magic question because it is about strategy for a card game, what is going to happen when the question is about a card game very similar to magic but which only exists online and doesn't have a physical version?
Jun 21, 2013 17:19
Did we just agree to go on using titles as we have always done?
Jun 21, 2013 17:19
Whatever happened in the after math of this? meta.stackoverflow.com/questions/180100/…

Has anyone else been watching hextcg.com? They've basically taken the mechanics of Magic and then added a bunch of concepts that can only be done with a digital CCG, like the attributes of cards changing constantly and all sorts of powerups that you earn and customize.
Apr 25, 2013 17:09
OK, I'll stay out of it
Apr 25, 2013 17:05
Yah, I don't think they're worth enough to bother selling, I only collected from about 3rd edition to Ice Age. The Collector's Edition seems to be fetching a nice price these days, but I figure that should keep going up, so I'm holding on to it.
Apr 25, 2013 17:02
Yah, I've actually started playing with my 7 year old recently. Using all my old cards (at least the ones I could find)
Apr 25, 2013 17:01
Unfortunately I don't seem to have it anymore. There are a bunch of cards I remember having that I can no longer locate. Either I traded them long ago and forgot it, or I lost them in one of my many moves.
Apr 25, 2013 16:59
Yah, it was nothing special at the time, but now that there are so many legendary creatures, I can see why it would be popular. Especially since there is no downside, other than having multiples in your deck means you could only play the first one.

@OrigamiRobot Karakas
Apr 25, 2013 16:58
At least I still have my full Collector's Edition
Apr 25, 2013 16:57
I haven't bought magic cards in almost two decades. I was scanning channel fireball the other day to see if any of my old cards had any value. There is only one card that I used to have that is over $100. And its a land (and uncommon to boot).
Apr 25, 2013 16:49
@badp I guess. But I'm guessing there isn't a lot of venture capital around MMORPGs these days.
Apr 25, 2013 16:48
Massively multiplayer implies lots of hardware, networking infrastructure, billing infrastructure, and tons of development time. How does an indie accomplish all that?
Apr 25, 2013 16:47
A massively multi-player indie game? That seems like an oxymoron.
Apr 19, 2013 16:37
@kalina Until I go on a question asking/answering tear! What's popular with the kids these days? I'm tearing through Legend of Grimrock at the moment.
Apr 1, 2013 16:19
No Blizzard April Fools stuff? Weak.
Mar 12, 2013 20:29
So is there going to be a 100k party tomorrow?
Feb 11, 2013 17:53
I'm glad that I got the game as part of the Humble Bundle, because I don't feel like I wasted money on it. I played for about an hour and don't know that I'll go any further.
Feb 11, 2013 17:52
@BenBrocka I'm the kind of person who doesn't like to look at guides for games. That being said, I find a game that doesn't tell me what anything does rather infuriating.
Feb 11, 2013 17:50
I guess they spent too much time on blood and feces effects to create actual in-game item descriptions?
Feb 11, 2013 17:49
Is it just me, or does the face that you need to have a wiki page open to understand what's going on in Binding of Isaac a terrible design choice?
Jan 24, 2013 18:01
@Wipqozn This is rather ironic, since it appears that the number of questions asked on Epic Advice last year was... 2.
Jan 24, 2013 17:52
@Wipqozn Can't we just all agree that cheese is wrong and move on?

@Phill.Zitt So, first time on The Bridge?
Jan 15, 2013 17:59
@Ullallulloo Looked right to me, I approved.
Dec 19, 2012 18:07
@BenBrocka I wasn't arguing for closing. I just don't understand the outpouring of love for it. 11 upvotes is quite a few.
Dec 19, 2012 17:51
@pixel Rep capped already?
Dec 19, 2012 17:46
@LessPop_MoreFizz I thought there was some technical limitation regarding displaying the hats in chat.
Dec 19, 2012 17:43
@BenBrocka The answer might be. But how does that make it a good question?
Dec 19, 2012 17:41
Q: "How is X the theme of this series?" A:"It isn't"

Q: How is American Exceptionalism shown throughout the Bioshock Titles?

ParalyticAs I am reading through a wiki on Bioshock it mentions Bioshock Infinite having a connection to the other titles through a theme. The theme being American Exceptionalism, which is easily noticable in Bioshock Infinite (even with it not being released yet) but not as noticable in the other two tit...

Dec 19, 2012 17:40
So what do the 11 upvoters see in this question that is worthy of praise?
Dec 19, 2012 17:35
I was just going to ask about secret hats...
Dec 19, 2012 17:27
Chat hats are still a no go huh?

The roots of the format go all the way back to 1996, around the time that the Elder Dragons were first introduced. mtgcommander.net/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=3734
