In this video Richard Garriott aka Lord British phones in an appearance - from Russia - with Stephen Colbert.
As GamePolitics has reported, Garriott's baggage for his trip to to the International Space Station includes a sample of Colbert's DNA.
Garriott, of course, is best known as the creator of the Ultima RPG series.
MechaTama31: I mean, of the groups being bullied here, which of the two would you refer to collectively as "nerds"?10/19/2014 - 11:30pm
|
MechaTama31: But that's the thing, it doesn't sound to me like he is advocating bullying, it sounds like he is accusing the SJWs of bullying the "nerds", who I can only assume refers to the GGers.10/19/2014 - 11:21pm

Andrew Eisen: Interesting read. Unfortunately, too vague to form an opinion on but at least now I know what faefrost was talking about in James' editorial.10/19/2014 - 10:39pm

Neo_DrKefka: Only good thing I seen come out of the Biddle incident was the fact a professional fighter offered to give 10k to an anti bullying charity for a round in the ring with Biddle.10/19/2014 - 7:49pm
|
Neo_DrKefka: Even after all the interviews she is still on twitter making fun of people with disabilities (Autism) yet she is a part of the crowd that is on the so called right side of history...10/19/2014 - 7:48pm
|
Neo_DrKefka: Which #GameGate supports are constantly being harassed and bullied. Brianna Wu who I told everyone she was trolling GamerGate weeks ago with her passive aggressive threats was looking for that crazy person in the crowd.10/19/2014 - 7:47pm
|
Neo_DrKefka: I believe the problem #GamerGate has with Sam Biddle is he is apart of this blogging group that in a way hates or detests its readers. Also being apart of the crowd that claims its on the right side of history isn't helping when he is advocating bullying10/19/2014 - 7:45pm
|
MechaTama31: Of course, I'm looking at these tweets in isolation, I don't know a thing about the guy.10/19/2014 - 7:06pm
|
MechaTama31: If anything, the sarcastic implication seems to be that the SJW crowd is bringing back the bullying of nerds. But it's the GGers who are out for his blood? I'm lost...10/19/2014 - 7:01pm
|
MechaTama31: I don't really get this Sam Biddle thing. The reaction to his tweets seems to be taking them at face value, but... they're tongue in cheek. Right?10/19/2014 - 7:00pm

Andrew Eisen: I have it. The problem, so far as I can tell, is neither of them allow me to overlay my webcam feed or text links to my Extra-Life fundraising page.10/19/2014 - 4:08pm

quiknkold: and yes, its free10/19/2014 - 4:05pm

|
Andrew Eisen: The former.10/19/2014 - 4:00pm
|
quiknkold: was it StreamEez, or the StreamEez feature in Hauppauge Capture? cause I know Capture has alot more support from the devs.10/19/2014 - 3:54pm
|
Andrew Eisen: I actually tried StreamEez last week. Flat out didn't work.10/19/2014 - 3:53pm
|
quiknkold: I use the Hauppauge Capture software's StreamEez. Arcsoft showbiz for recording. I just streamed a few hours of Persona 4 Golden with zero problem using the program. Xsplit is finniky when it comes to Hauppauge10/19/2014 - 3:40pm

Andrew Eisen: Trying to capture console games and broadcast with Open Broadcaster System because I've had technical difficulties using XSplit 3 weeks in a row.10/19/2014 - 3:37pm

Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
Why did I think that Lord British would actually be British?

Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
It was a nickname he got at a summer camp as a child because they thought he seemed British. He was born there but raised in Texas.
Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
and what does this have to do with video games?
Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
Richard Garriot aka Lord British is the creator of the Ultima Online series :)
Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
No. He's the creator of the Ultima series. Ultima Online was one game and some expansions.
Semantics? Damn straight.

You honestly can't figure that out on your own?

Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
Watch the DNA capsule crash land on some planet and create a race of creatures using colbert's DNA. Followed shortly by them taking over Earth and brain washing us with political satire. I think I've been playing to much spore...
I would totally play Lord British astiroids btw. (pew pewpew)

Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
Ahhhhh don't let Garriot back down from space, that crazy is perfect up there! :P
Re: Lord British Appears on Colbert Report
A saying I heard somewhere.
"Nothing is as powerful as an idea whose time has come."
I guess this idea's time has come. (this idea = L.B. taking Colbert's DNA into space) Can we expect a bunch of male and female Colbert clones around the I.S.S. anytime soon?
