This cripplingly spartan UI is almost laughably bad and I want to know why anyone in their right mind thought this was shippable.

So not only can you join all factions, even the ones opposed to each other...

Sort of...but not really.

You seemed to take that way too personally.

Fuck Embracer.  Fuck megacorps.

Oh of course. Europe does have significantly better protections in place. There’s issues there, but the bar set by the US is so fucking low...

But it still seems very weird to abandon an engine that has currently produced the most graphically advanced triple A game of this generation so far, for an engine that while very promising at the point of them making the decision was very much yet to prove its prowess (demos exists, complex performance analysis did…

I wonder if this stems from Netflix’s comments in Europe, and how they are doing all/most of the things the unions in the US are demanding. And how Netflix over in Europe is committed to fairly paying those people (per their public statements, and again applying to the european side of things).

I dunno, hyperspace travel times were never well-defined in any of the pre-Disney movies either.

Its not that the sequel trilogy depicted as instant per se, its that the sequel trilogy decided that time and space (distance/where things are...not literally space itself) were worthless concepts and got rid of them entirely. Everything in those movies happens now.

Couple of things to note and to take into consideration. (Note: not saying you’re wrong, but perhaps not quite as bad as you might think)

Largely I imagine this has to deal with satellites and components (particularly com satellites) don’t really fall under ITAR anymore since a lot of that is no longer classified as munitions (yes satellites were classified as munitions). Launch vehicles still are under ITAR. So working on Superheavy/Falcon would still…

There’s no time here for a detailed backstory. It’s full speed ahead from the very first second. But was that a mistake?

The only thing I’ll disagree slightly on is that Children being about the next generation. Admittedly I say this knowing the next book, God Emperor, jumps thousands of years into the future so we never really see the next generation do anything but...Children feels less like its exploring the next generation, and more…

Messiah is very much the end of Paul as protagonist. Though while Children is not as good as Messiah, I do think it serves well as the epilogue to Paul’s story.

They couldn’t make “Cowboy Bebop” work. No way is “One Piece” gonna be the miracle.

Hi, I have a bridge to sell you.

You fail to realize that the map was opened by Sabine and not by the witch.

1st. Hundreds of years old is not that long in star wars so asking who made the map and it’s purpose is a valid question especially when the map was elaborately hidden and was encrypted and the reader was on a different planet.

It is specifically referred to as a map to Thrawn in the episodes.
