Missing those un-missable shots stays with you forever. Yesterday my wife was all “They said it was a 90% chance of rain today, and nothing happened! How can it be so sunny and dry on a 90% rain day?!” and I just said “That’s XCOM, baby.” Took her a minute, but she laughed. Maybe it was a pity laugh, but I couldn’t…

Quebec has as much to do with France as the United States has to do with England. Less, really, since the language has diverged far more than English has.

I thought that was great joke, but considering how the target audience is and the overall opinion in japan of said target audience I don’t think that’s a problem.

It gets a “free pass” because it’s only three years into development, compared to how other publishers do it (four years of work, followed by one or two years of marketing and polishing development).

because this game is a cult

The fact remains it has only been in development less than three years — at which a AAA game from a typical publisher would just be FIRST ANNOUNCED and then have another 3 years development left to go.

I’m sorry, two fucking years is not a long time for game development. This is being built from scratch, so they will have to spend a lot of time getting things implemented, let alone optimizing them. Just go back to the videos of any E3 were the game is launched two or three years later: the end result is widely…

Uhh, having skinny streets would *increase* real estate supply, thus lowering rent. And gentrification? Can’t just throw these keywords around without backing them up; neither the author nor the primary source mention race/class, though increasing housing supply would likely make rent more affordable, not less.

And it’s not intended for them...It’s intended for cities that are already dense and have mass transit options.

please read... literally anything on urban planning. Your ideas would cover the earth in asphalt and lawn.

Man, you must be awesome at parties.

I would absolutely love to fly in a luxury airship, I guess kind of like a cruise but all enclosed and in the air.

Final Fantasy 7 HD Remake confirmed!!!!

I really wish some billionaire would resurrect a zeppelin. Not only would I start saving every penny to actually ride in one, I think it would bring some awe back to the skies as we are somewhat blase about the little test planes but something that large and majestic would be pretty cool.

Instructions unclear. I made an onion smoothie. Send Help ASAP!

I work in the logistics industry and being able to move 10 tons at (a constant?) 90 mph in a straight line with no driver/pilot and no stopping sounds amazing. Obviously a lot of other factors come in to play, but I’m listening...

Came for the Archer quotes and was not disappointed.

Add a real tap handle to class the joint up a bit and be like a boss. I bought one for turning a pumpkin into a keg at Halloween. It works very well.
