It wouldn’t be so bad if everyone in the public zone could actually contribute to the EP. But thanks to the power level progression of the waves, there’s a good chance that half the strangers in the zone with you will be literally useless halfway through the run.

For me, the Stefano fight pales in comparison to the bit at the start of Chapter 10. Playing on Nightmare, and handling everything pretty easily up to that point, THAT fight seemed legitimately impossible for me based on the supplies and ammo I had available. I think it may literally be the first time I ever enabled…

Unfortunately, there’s no sense trying to control or regulate drugs because criminals and addicts will find ways to get ahold of them anyway!

This strikes me as a bit weird, I’ve never done and don’t plan on starting.

These kinds of soccer riots aren’t exactly rare, either.

Kinda ironic, considering that one of the major themes of the books AND games is Geralt constantly having to deal with being treated as a sub-human outsider, often mistrusted and despised even by the people who wind up needing his help. Although his skin color is white, I’d say a room full of writers from varying…

Ugh, prequels. I’m completely uninterested in having any of Marston’s backstory filled in. His shady past, referenced but never spelled out, worked perfectly for his character. Would have much rather seen a completely new, unrelated adventure.

I don’t think videogames are a useful comparison, because video game characters aren’t even remotely convincing as conscious beings.

Westworld robots are capable of pretty perfectly simulating humanity. Most people could interact with one at length and not know whether it was a person or a robot. So, you can argue the philosophical point that they don’t possess the same kind of consciousness that humans do. Buuut if you are capable of killing and…

I don’t know, Kellyanne. If your president grabs one pussy, or two pussies, has he grabbed ALL pussies? Think about THAT.

“Dumb fun” usually just translates to “dumb”, but it sounds like they leaned into the absurdity hard here and it paid off. Which is great because I originally thought they didn’t go camp enough, what with the creatures being giant versions of actual animals instead of people transformed into ridiculous monsters.

Sweet. This is exactly what I needed, a way to get constant shooting practice against live opponents without having to constantly re-queue for a new game every time I die.

“Our kids follow their example, and this is the example they set?”

Seriously. That comment just kept going, and going, and going...

I would take that job and then basically collect their money doing as bad a job as possible without getting fired, for as long as possible.

Holy shit. I was ignoring this kid because he’s a kid, he doesn’t need to be raked over the coals for shitty political opinions, and also he did survive the shooting and is entitled to his feelings and opinions on the issue. But you’re right, he is actually bragging about how connected he is now thanks to the…

The dev sounds like the triggered one, honestly.

Wow, so edgy.

Me too, amazing aesthetic, especially combined with the weird distorted voices.

“Feelings = Facts” has been core to the Republican ideology for some time now.
