Objectively is not a word I would use when evaluating people's looks, that's the whole point.

I'm not arguing against the latter part, that's why I keep using the term subjective. I'm saying if we're mad at Hollywood for casting Sally Field as Gump's mom we should probably step back and realize they totally sold that, she looks 20+ years older than him in the movie.

Those pictures don't change my perception, sorry. *shrug*

It's obviously subjective perception because to me Kate Winslet looks MUCH older than Dicaprio, and Sandra Bullock looks about her age, and looks like her face is unnaturally smooth due to botox or some other work being done on it. Those women look 40+ trying to look younger, Dicaprio and Depp legitimately look young

Subjective experience obviously, but for me a 30<X<50 year old man tends to look younger than a 30<x<50 year old woman. And yes I'm sure how closely society analyzes a woman's appearance is a factor there.

Women dating older men is commonplace in society itself though, not surprising it's commonplace in movies. If anything it's getting less common, rather than more common.

I'm not really disagreeing with anything you said but oftentimes I think it can simply be blamed on men more easily looking younger than their age than women can. Fair or not fair.

Yeah I read that and was severely disappointed. Didn't really want to come back to this old thread to discuss it though. Good on you for doing so however.

If you elaborate on this and list turn-based combat as a relic we're coming to blows, my friend.

Gonna wait on a patch or two before I play it, but games like this coming out makes me so happy. I grew up on PC classics in the 90s, and have been one of those people grumbling for years about crappy watered-down multiplatform stuff. Seeing true PC RPGs coming back into style warms the old heart.

I know it's on PC in Europe because it's on GOG, and GOG only sells stuff worldwide. I'm sure this game would run on a 5 year old laptop so why not play it that way?

October is my deadline for a massive PC upgrade, mostly for these games. I should be able to squeak by, we'll see. There's even more than this coming around the same time, if you count PC indie stuff like Wasteland 2 and Pillars of Eternity. Going to be crazy!

Looks good. I'm someone who thinks Morrowind still looks good too. It will be interesting to see how the gameplay transfers over.

Windows is a Microsoft platform, I don't think they see it as the same kind of competition. And I think at the end of the day they probably know that PC and Playstation is a much better combination than PC and Xbox, so they might as well sell us PC only types and PC + Playstation types their games.

Microsoft isn't that concerned with keeping their exclusives off the PC, I think is more the truth of it. The PC after all is their platform as well in most cases, and it's not really the same kind of competitor as the Playstation is.

That's pretty bitchin'.

Did I say it was okay?

I don't disagree with any of that, I just dislike it when we act like any woman who is opposed to abortion is some kind of warped empty vessel speaking for their father/husband.

I know, like I already said I was using their terminology. The core point is this ruling doesn't apply to every form of BC, which is a clarification worth making.

Did I say otherwise?
