It does make me want to feel the Bern.

If you turn a desk in a classroom, the horizontal edge of the desk will not remain parallel to the others. The center may, but not the front and back edges. It also doesn’t actually change the vanishing point (which belongs to the perspective, not individual objects), you just can’t determine the vanishing point from…

As a Cardinals fan, I’m choosing the high ground and not engaging.

These guys are awful...

I’m not going to apologize for not wanting to kill/imprison/expel all Muslims for the actions of a minority of them. And I’m not equivocating; I’m saying it is morally reprehensible to do so.

And here I thought the terrorists were the problem...my bad.

I’m not sure if you’re saying that terrorists are always Muslim or just the female ones are. In either case, most deaths in the US resulting from terrorism since 9/11 are not linked to Muslims (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/post-nati…, even including San Bernadino which occurred after this article). Aside from…

I’m going to go ahead and throw it out there that gender is a more common thread than Islam in terrorist acts (both domestically in the US and internationally). Certainly, looking at terrorist acts widely covered in the news stateside, the perpetrators are more likely to be male than Islamic.

Pokemon + Armed Robbery?

(that’s a cowboy plus a cyborg, not a robot cow)

I was hoping for a Borderlands-like resolution to this. Maybe a little yaoi?

I’m just going on reviews that implied that hitting max stress was a regular occurrence when progressing at a reasonable rate. Most of the other commentors seem to be of the opinion this is incorrect, so I’ll accept that.

I will say that getting critted for 70-80% out of nowhere (unless both characters are glass cannons) is not a good feature in a game. I think the RNG should serve as something to adapt to, not something to run up against until you get a good roll.

You don’t make any choices in Chutes and Ladders. It’s War (or Candyland) by another name.

I haven’t played it either, but my understanding was that characters will regularly hit max stress when moving at a reasonable pace, even with diligent management (they may even get a buff as a result). In many RPGs it’s possible to grind for hours and overlevel, neglecting strategy. That doesn’t mean it’s acceptable…

You shouldn’t lose in a game for reasons (that appear) outside your control, especially in PvE games: War, Candyland, and Chutes and Ladders are terrible games. To that point, it doesn’t make sense to put what are effectively unavoidable insta-death traps in a roguelike.

In The Division, the city of New York has been evacuated in the aftermath of a deadly biological attack. Some nefarious individual or organization infected a bunch of paper money with a genetically engineered version of the smallpox virus and fed those bills into circulation just in time for Black Friday.
