TowardsTheFuture,

Euro gamer with the 3/5 because they actually tell you the story while playing. Crazy.

TowardsTheFuture,

Are you suggesting gayness is measured in number of humans?

TowardsTheFuture,

But the possible number of outcomes is not limited by the subset of living humans. While we may have a currently highest number that doesn’t mean it IS the highest possible, nor that there is exactly one of them.

TowardsTheFuture,

Meanwhile, people who play Xcom refuse to press the button.

TowardsTheFuture,

But a corporation is not entitled to that. Neither is money. People are.

Allowing money to count as a petition is limiting the freedom of those without money then.

[Request] If you don't live in a swing region/state, better to vote third party than waste your vote on an almost certain outcome. Yeah?

Is this logic flawed? Obviously in swing races, vote how it’s needed, but if it’s probably going to be a landslide, why not vote for a third party? Some regions even allow for multiple party representation if enough people show interest, so it could be doing future good (if you think more parties is better representation)

TowardsTheFuture,

Didn’t know about the last two hadn’t heard of much progress since 2019. Still, need quite a bit more before it matters literally at all. Maybe the wave of people voting for abortion rights can help flip enough seats to people who will support passing this stuff over the next few years.

TowardsTheFuture,

Seriously I’ve said it before if you’ve backed legislation found to be blatantly unconstitutional you should be removed from office.

TowardsTheFuture,

I say blatantly which would be different in legalese but basically, if it is directly without need for interpretation such as saying gay people cannot be teachers which is directly discriminating against sexual orientation, then you’re out. Meanwhile if it’s later found to be unconstitutional due to interpretation or implementation such as stop and frisk then you’re not removed, though any laws copying said law that was already found unconstitutional WOULD then cause you to be removed because duh we’ve been here before.

Edit: also, only said outed from office and not banned as if it’s used to remove people they could still be voted back in with a special election or whatever, similar to what happened with jones/pearson being removed using bullshit.

TowardsTheFuture,

Oh boy don’t look at Florida’s teacher salaries then. (Or whatever hell holes are the 2 states lower than us)

TowardsTheFuture,

ouch. I’m sorry.

TowardsTheFuture,

Right I was like… what relations? They’ve been fighting for years.

TowardsTheFuture,

“How do we get people to stop thinking we’re starting a war and committing genocide?” “Start another war with people they already had a war with.” Sad it will fucking work because now everyone will use this as an excuse to support them while ignoring the genocide and the fact that they instigated this.

TowardsTheFuture,

I mean, much worse than the title implies: Arizona Supreme Court removes a law passed 2 years ago in order to reinstate an abortion ban law from before Arizona was even a state, to which the only exception is when absolutely necessary to save the life of the mother. (Which we’ve seen from Texas mean basically won’t happen even if it is medically suggested by multiple doctors.)

U.S. approved more bombs to Israel on day of World Central Kitchen strikes (www.washingtonpost.com)

The State Department approved the transfer of more than 1,000 MK82 500-pound bombs, over 1,000 small-diameter bombs, and fuses for MK80 bombs, all from authorizations granted by Congress several years before the latest hostilities between Israel and Hamas began, said the U.S. officials, who like others spoke on the condition of...

TowardsTheFuture,

BUT WHY SHOULD ONE PERSON MEANT TO REPRESENT THE COUNTRY CHANGE INSTEAD OF FORCING THE WHOLE COUNTRY TO GIVE UP INSTEAD?

TowardsTheFuture,

Well I don’t know a single wealthy person who DOESNT drink 100 full sugar drinks a day. So hah.

TowardsTheFuture,

Tried this on a Next Fest and it was super cool, definitely something different and interesting if you’re into side scrollers.

TowardsTheFuture,

Reminds me I need to get around to playing more. Got to the like first real city and then got busy with a lot of things but it’s cool for sure.

TowardsTheFuture,

I can’t wait for Google to sue Epic for using their market share to put out their engine for free to add market share and then exert pressure on game developers by having a yearly subscription/seat and royalties.

TowardsTheFuture,

Gotta milk this one for 10 years too so yeah can’t release it all at once that would be silly.

TowardsTheFuture,

Sounds like you want to play guild wars 2 for the most part.

TowardsTheFuture,

I mean, it has fast travel points. It has cross sever interaction (mega servers). The dungeon finder needs work for sure. It’s definitely playable as a solo experience and when other people show up it isn’t bad. Not lining up to kill a mob as anyone who hits it gets credit. No sharing resource deposits so you don’t get upset if someone else is mining shit while you are. They’ve done an okay job at making endgame more accessible with strikes and challenge modes recently, though if you want pure endgame it’s likely not the game for you. But from what the poster had said, it has almost everything they asked for.

TowardsTheFuture,

More that now that patches are easy to implement across any platform you don’t have to ship something that works well day 1 anymore, nor does it need everything that should be out at release. Often that means people release a game well before it should have released and charge full price for a game that is literally incomplete. Great example would be No Man’s Sky which was “complete” (based on their advertisements) maybe 3 years ago(whenever they implemented actual multiplayer finally)? And came out 7 years ago.

TowardsTheFuture,

Yeah, overall it’s fine. It’s definitely enjoyable enough but there’s definitely a lot of work to be done and it worries me when they say they’ll not release the last 3 subclasses until full release when patches are not very stable and entire subclasses with zero testing is… not gonna end up good.

TowardsTheFuture,

How’s the game since launch? I was so hopeful for it but it ended up just the same very boring fucking cycle of go to event that spawns a billion enemies, repeat, do the emergency event when that exists, back to stupid event things that are all the same.

TowardsTheFuture,

That’s great to hear. I’ll have to check it out eventually, so busy it’ll probably be a while.

TowardsTheFuture,

So they walked back the part where they would’ve been sued anyways because it was already in their contract that they couldn’t retroactively charge you unless you renewed/updated. They of course changed it for this update.

“Oops you caught us doing something illegal and bad so we’ll still do the bad part, but we are sooo sorry you caught us trying to do something against our contracts, so I guess we’ll remove that part. See how sorry and humbled we are? Now give us your money.”

TowardsTheFuture,

Honestly WiiU was sick as hell for MH3U cuz I could have all my UI on the other screen so it was super cool for immersion.

TowardsTheFuture,

Bad title. Will be console exclusive. Not saying it will be next gen.

TowardsTheFuture,

Yeah sorry meant that.

TowardsTheFuture,

Seems VG247 had the same issues I did in large after casts and horrible skill queuing that will queue shit like 2 seconds later. I was hoping that would be refined after the demo.

I wouldn’t give it THAT low of a rating though lol.

TowardsTheFuture,

It’s not “here to stay” it’s a feature that is used or not used depending on the level of realness wanted. Some are fine with hand waving away encumbrance, some are not.

If you’re playing a walking simulator, it is kinda part of the immersion.

If you’re running around killing every Greek god under the Sun, but suddenly you pick up your 7th weapon that’s just chains with something at the end of it, and BOOM you can’t move anymore cuz your too heavy, then it’s getting in the way. Instead of implementing encumbrance they just, limit you to 6 weapons and tada, they could explain it as “it’s too much weight” but they won’t give you the option for it to happen as slowing you down would kill the pace and feel of the game.

Baldurs gate is a DND based CRPG and Starfield is a loadscreenwalking simulator. Of course they have encumbrance.

TowardsTheFuture,

Fair, depends on the game. CRPG’s will tend to have it in. I mean for example WotR and Kingmaker you can get a bag of holding if you buy it or put stuff into strength on characters or etc in order to not have to worry about it much but it’s still there, and not spending the money on it or building any characters with strength means you will be limited.

TowardsTheFuture,

No no, it only succeeds on 4 success and you’ve got 6d10 to roll. If only they’d had more dots in intelligence or expression.

TowardsTheFuture,

To be fair the game still had a huge fucking budget. You don’t have that many voice lines and get them all to also do mo cap and make a CRPG with that much content on a small budget.

TowardsTheFuture,

To be fair, audiovisual and name recognition is huge. People talk about the game as if nothing like it has ever existed. DOS 1/2, Kingmaker/WotR, PoE I/II, and many more are similar games, also varying levels of amazing, but without large cinematic budgets and mo cap and extensive voice acting and DND name recognition, they don’t even get mentioned in most comparison articles which always just go to DragonAge.

TowardsTheFuture,

Complaining about it having funding… AAA… lol. Thats the fucking point of AAA. Big fucking budget.

TowardsTheFuture,

I mean… sure if you only play games that have that same feeling?

Like oh no BG3 is just elves & Brittania… Duh?

So play WotR and at least go to the Abyss?

Or play any game based not on Tolkien lore? There’s a ton of games based on different mythologies: Raji, Prince of Persia, Tribes of Midgard, Hades, Wo Long, etc.

Or just play games set in just completely different worlds? Pyre/Transistor/Bastion are all interesting worlds. Remnant I/II is a neat concept. etc. More playful stuff like Cuphead/Death’s Door, etc.

Or look at some MMO’s if you want larger worlds with different influence? Guild Wars 2 is pretty decent as far as a good variety with its world/races for example, even if its still similar to a generic fantasy setting.

TowardsTheFuture,

Idk, personally it was very unengaging and the only way I found it amusing was through a ton of mods or Enderall’s total conversion mod. But everyone’s into different shit.

TowardsTheFuture,

With action cam it’s definitely playable with a controller but I doubt they’ll put in controller support because like… there’s a billion different bindings and everyone rebinds everything in their own so there’s not much point? Browse community bindings and find one that works for you/your character(s).
