Yeah I'm just vpn torrenting to be honest.. not great I know but I ALWAYS buy the bluray boxet at the end (kind of a special features nerd haha) so they'll get my money eventually lol.
I don't pirate games anymore though.. gotta be a good 15yrs + since I last did that. I like physcial collecting too much. Sadly thats a dying thing though so I'm slowly embracing Steam & Gog lol.
Anyway.. episode 4 seen (belated).. WE'RE OFF!:
Guess I better hurry up and watch Ep 5 now instead of reading comments as that's just asking for spoilers haha.
Didn't Picard say something to the scientist from the Daystrom Institute that they couldn't replicate Data's positronic brain, even Data couldn't manage that. I took that as a reference to Lal.
I just rewatched the scene to see. The scientist says "no has ever been able to redevelop the science used to create Data" but doesn't say the even data couldn't bit. Later Picard says "Data always wanted a daughter" which would be the closest reference to him creating Lal I guess.
Lal was mentioned a number of times in the first episode...
Don't think she was mate lol. There are reviewers and fans all over the net wondering about the zero mention of Lal. All Data daughter references in the first ep are about Dahj and her twin sister. But if you're sure feel free to chuck me a timestamp and I'll go look to see if you're seeing something we're all missing haha.
Episode 2 of Picard just seen. Glad it explains some of the mysteries & fan complaints about the first episode.
Oh and apparently CBS has posted the first episode of Picard on YouTube for a limited time. So, if people dont have All Access or Amazon and want to check it out, you have til Feb 7 to watch it for free. Naturally it's region locked though urgh. :/
I haven't got a new kidney yet. I'm on dialysis, and doing better. I've gotten out a couple more, and I hope to roll on more as the summer goes on here.
Hey there BT. Have you managed to knock down any more physical copy mail outs? My physical copy of Hero-U arrived the other day and it reminded me about my QFI physical.
I saw that you're maybe getting another kidney now after all which is good news!!!
Oh and people stopped being so nasty on the kickstarter comments after I told them last year about what you were going through.
What a dick. Obviously not a true fan then. I've really got into collecting boxsets these days. Had plenty from my childhood already (including some nice sierra ones) but lately I've been buying boxsets of heaps of old games that I treasured in the 90s but didn't have a proper copy of eg just got my hands on an original Micropose Master of Magic boxset with the manual and spell sheets etc.. F*CK YEAH lol! So yes I will treasure my IQ stuff when it arrives although come think of it I think I only ordered the plastic dvd case version instead of the full boxset. Sh*t! Haha oh well!!
Yeah hopefully my post on the kickstarter comments might 'kickstart' a few peoples consciences and take some heat off you guys for a few more months.
Been meaning to drop by and see when my physical copy was coming but have since seen that BT's in real trouble health wise again. I've donated to the gofundme and am crossing my fingers all goes well with the transplant from his wife. I've also posted about the situation over on the Kickstarter comments as people there were getting super aggro and threatening legal action etc.. sigh.
Hey guys.. someone appears to have made a QFI forum over at neoseeker.
Thought I'd let you know in case you wanna go post a thread in there with nice pictures and links etc.
I've posted things in some of their other empty forums and the views piled is as I'm guessing new threads are visible on some generic main forum page that thousands of people see.
Well it turns out I don't have to go find a PC Gamer US as I just opened up my PC Gamer UK (which I get every month) for February and there it is!!
I never thought I'd make that.. the mag I've been collecting since I was a boy.. they've even stuck in an extra picture! It's also the only one of the top 10 that is bigger than half a page and has more than 1 pic.. that's just crazy!!!
Still catching up on some recent PC Gamer magazines. Blake00's QFGIV-3D was mentioned in the recent March 2017 / #289 issue (U.S. version).
Located on page 90 under their "Top 10 Downloads" section, it's #1:
HOLY S***! I nearly had a heart attack when my mod appeared in Rock Paper Shotgun back in Jan.. but now PC Gamer!!! Wow!
Thank you so much for letting me know! I've gotta try and get my hands on a copy! I normally get the UK PC gamer here in Aus but I do see the American one's occasionally in stores.
