I love Pokket's videos.... She's awesome.
Love the hair! Love how she always has new hair!
I tried and tried and could never get into huttball, ended up hating it. Loved the other maps though.
And as for attention, she has mine!
Thu Aug 23 2012 10:25AM ReportFor thos ethat dont know un'goro crater that she mention is an area in WoW.
That said, i hate instances housing, hope future games, maybe even WoW in future , have open world housing...
Thu Aug 23 2012 10:43AM ReportPokket's back to blue!!!! \o/
oh yeah, there was news too!
Thu Aug 23 2012 11:03AM ReportPlayer Housing should be open world i.e StarWars Galaxy housing, so that players can stumble upon your community, shops, or houses out in the wild, and you have that novelty of checking out a town you havent found before. If theres specific Merchants the players have set up, people will mark the towns down and come back later for whatever reason, making them building blocks of a trade route which could easily pop up between player built towns, shops, and whatever else.
Instanced Player Housing works because its finally getting back into the housing, I just hope Devs will see how much players love housing and how much they could expand on it and accual do.
Thu Aug 23 2012 11:04AM ReportSWG non-instanced housing didn't lag people, and it made you feel like you were a part of the world.
RIFT's instanced housing is nothing more than needless fluff. Might as well be completely wasted production resources for RIFT. Pathetic :|.
Though I do see why you tried to defend it, you're trying to be unfavoring to one side or the other. Though i'm sure you knew where the majority of players were anyways on this debate.
Thu Aug 23 2012 11:35AM ReportI've got the worst internet-crush-thing going on right now. I think I'll be sad to see this hair color inevitably change though. Beautiful combination. I wish I was more interested in GW2 or LoL so I could pillage and tear it up with the Pokket Posse. Maybe when (if) Ultima Online 2 comes out.
I've gotta check out Dino Storm though. I was just thinking earlier how it would be cool if someone did a Dead Island / Borderlands type game with dinosaurs.
Thu Aug 23 2012 3:37PM ReportThe shuffle for humans is awesome. I spent many hours learning that dance just so I could dance around and make my 6 month old son laugh. Totally worth it.
Thu Aug 23 2012 4:56PM ReportFirst a couple of technical things. THANK YOU for finally not being out of frame from your forehead up for most of the video. Secondly was that color/brightness change during the Rift segment intentional?
Now on to the video content, you sound like the Count from Sesame Street at the end of Tera segment and I got huge chuckle from the Sylvari dance thing you did.
As for the 3D housing both SWG and Vanguard pulled it off with out much lag for me. I much rather have non-instanced housing in game. It adds so much IMO in terms of ambience.
Thu Aug 23 2012 5:13PM ReportSylvari dancing is indeed the best! I don't think non-instanced housing in any game is a must. I do enjoy it a lot though. I am most looking forward to Wildstar's housing.
@FadedBomb The game may not have lagged with its housing but you still had to wait a few moments for a houses furnishing to appear. It wasn't a terrible trade off but I believe we can do better at this point. I would love to see another game as ambitious as SWG was.
Thu Aug 23 2012 5:23PM ReportIts obvious now folks......
Pokket has no dance moves..My god, did you see that 'move'?
Geeker gaming chick has zero rhythm...
My gfs friends were laughing their collective azzes off...
Please, I beg of you, never EVER try to dance in a video again..
:)
Thu Aug 23 2012 5:47PM ReportYeah she is lovely. I like her gestures and ... uhm ... sounds? ^^ Always have to smile. :P
And really nice hair and makeup.
PS: That gaming bla bla was good too. *g*

Thu Aug 23 2012 6:50PM ReportI understand people make comments on youtube and what not, but god if you're going to post on a professional website at least rehearse your lines.
It sounds like a 10 year just talking and blabbing.
Thu Aug 23 2012 8:19PM ReportDance like there is no one watching.
Sing like you're in the shower.
Express joy in whatever medium you desire. It is, afterall, your freedom of expression. Anyone who is critical just doesn't understand and probably has not experienced true joy.
Thu Aug 23 2012 9:28PM ReportI really do enjoy these Game Face videos.
Keep up the good work Pokket.
Thu Aug 23 2012 10:53PM Report@Subgenius666 MMO genre's dying? I'd LOVE to see what statistics you're looking at. If anything, the market keep growing.. which is why there are constantly more and more MMOs being developed each year. But hey, in a parallel world where more demand means failing, I guess you'd be right!
Fri Aug 24 2012 1:53AM ReportLooks like something that would be more likely selling cotton candy at the state fair. Oh yeah the two big thumbs up really sells it. :P
Still not a fan..
Fri Aug 24 2012 2:13AM ReportWhen the major discussion point is the hosts hair...
Fri Aug 24 2012 2:46AM ReportI still say they need to change the name from gameface to "My hand's in your face" with lots of incoherent ramblings.
I understand some folks are visual talkers with their hands but really its almost like she has to be constantly moving.
I much prefer Bill's videos at least he puts a lot of work into editing and his stuff is a lot better to watch. [mod edit]
Fri Aug 24 2012 6:40AM Report@Scot: I'm willing to bet I play games more often than the quite a few people on this site. I also stream multiple times a week and upload gameplay videos to my youtube ^.^

You all are entitled to your opinion of my appearance, but it's not going to change simply because some outwardly shallow people on the internet don't like something ~.^
And just for lolz, I'm naming my next toon Cakeface :D Thanks!
Fri Aug 24 2012 9:47AM ReportSo what you should have said to save like 3 minutes about the player housing is that it's like EQ2 player housing and guild housing....
[mod edit]
Fri Aug 24 2012 1:32PM ReportPokket, how do you change your hair color so often without completely destroying your hair? I dyed my hair blue years ago and it obliterated my hair. What's your secret?
Also, no mention of Asura poplockin!? ASURA FTW!
Fri Aug 24 2012 3:40PM ReportOh darn, she called me out! OK she does game then. :)
I think the hair is quite anime, reminds me of Exalted which we are playing atm.
Sat Aug 25 2012 3:44AM ReportFunny the "paragraph" I wrote that actually spoke of the truth, was deleted. The truth must have really hurt.
And the only thing I hate Pokket is that it's possible to make it because you are actually a pretty girl that's into MMOs. There's a ton of guys on here that get NOWHERE near the coverage you get because they are a man. So take your "you're all sexist" views somewhere else because no ones buying it...
Thu Aug 30 2012 6:31AM ReportI prefer Tera over all , almost i like it more than all . cuz is a fresh hack & slash , we need that games styles , actually there is a lot point & clicks and skills apams like 1 , 2 ,3 ,4 keys , and we need a new generation of games more simulation, more exited, something like i hit you, you cover me hit, he hit me ...
that's my opinion , sorry for my english and Ty pokket for the review , you are so handsome , cute and i like your style hehe !!
Thu Aug 30 2012 8:37AM ReportPokket: I see you deleted my statement. I see the truth must hurt a little. But seriously, all jokes aside. I should call you Vampire due to your life stealing video. It actually robs a view of thier life by 8 minutes. Your video sounds like a bunch of various QQ rubbish.
Now hey, I don't watch your "Videos" I just stumbled across this video and wanted to check out the pretty face. Instead I got a chick nagging about silly nonsence. Maybe you should learn to take a little criticism, it may help out the next video you produce.
Thu Aug 30 2012 11:28AM Report"If you take the time to hate on a person who creates content you don't like and it's not even viable feedback they can use to improve, but rather just you spewing lava-filled hatred at the person"
That's the thing, most of us have constructive feedback. But what else are we susposed to say? This video just plain sucks to look at. Pokket, we're looking at you and only you for 8 whole minutes. No pictures, no videos and your commentary is so boring I rather watch paint dry. Hell, Pico from MMO Champion is more entertaining to watch.
Have you even taking a good look at your video? It's just bad!
