This game ROCKS. I have to admit, on Normal, i was able to blast though it in two evenings of play (long evenings, mind), and I'm not a very good FPS
gamer.
So.
However, my friends tell me that the multiplayer is 'where it's at', and i should get on the coop servers or vs. servers. We'll try that.
VERY VERY pretty game.
No surprises, this game is practically scripted by TVTropes.com, but that's fine.
It's cast by trope, too - you have the Woman, the Black Guy, the Office Dude, the Old Man, the Grizzled Military Vet, the Biker Dude...
but it works. This isn't about delicate and sensitive characterization. This is about ZOMBIES. and the slaughterization thereof. I broke a mouse trying to
rapidfire dual pistols into an onrushing horde..
I approve!

| An IP Idea |

So, prompted by a somewhat silly idea proposed in another forum:
I notice that a lot of the IP companies (RIAA, Disney etc) increasingly want their IP treated as property, in terms of the legal consequences of doing stuff
with it.
What if we let them, but then started treating it like Property in all ways. Including Propety Tax.
That is, if an IP is worth X number of dollars (as established by the RIAA or whatever in their lawsuits) then we charge the holding company a percentage of X
each year, much like you get charged taxes on your home for just sort of living in it based on its market value, even if you don't plan on selling it.

| Legendary Base -- What Next? |

I've been meaning to post this for a while, but the revamped base system I've seen touted for I13 just reminded me to do it now.
As of the last major upgrade of the base, the Legendary have more room than they know what to do with. I doubt we're going to need or want any more real
estate. But what is there left to put in the real estate we have now? What goodies haven't we earned or built that we want/need? I know that
there's an inspiration dispenser that we still don't have (yellows and reds, I think), but is there anything else? Or should we just move on to
interior decor?

In case you haven't already noticed, I've added a discussion area for DW13, since Helen and I have begun writing it.

This forum is intended for the discussion of the thirteenth and final Step in the Drunkard's Walk, entitled "Glory Hound" and set in the world of
Buffy The Vampire Slayer. I am writing this Step in collaboration with Helen "Wetter Hexe" Imre. It is under
active development, with a complete outline spanning the entire fifth season of Buffy, and a little beyond, and as of the date of this post, we have
begun writing Chapter One.
