I will always love this series and I will definitely be getting this, that said Phantom Brigade and all its cumulative updates is filling all my tactical Mech needs. It certainly does not play like the old Front Mission games but the fluidity of the combat has that panache that FM tries to convey in their combat…

Triangle Strategy is very good indeed. The biggest problems are that Serenoa is quite the vanilla protagonist and that the first 3 chapters are a bit slow to get going.

Tactics Ogre Reborn has indeed been fantastic. It's making me want to give Triangle Strategy a whirl, just to get my grid based political scheming fix

I already bought this because I am a huge Front Mission fan, knowing that there was going to be some clunk to this one.
While I am glad to see anything turn based from this series after Left Alive and Front Mission Evolved. It is bittersweet to see this not get the amount of polish that I’d have liked, while also…

I was so looking forward to this game, but I don’t think I can bring myself to play it right now. We said goodbye to our cat on Friday night. Lymphoma was very aggressive and we didn’t want her to suffer anymore. I was so looking forward to playing this with her in my lap.

The stock market IS gambling though. It swings irrationally for little in the way of logic and reason on the small scale and is extremely prone to boom and bust cycles on the large scale (incidentally: just like you would expect of a pump and dump scam... lol) Also, like cryptoshit, it is a zero-sum game; it doesn’t…

Billionaires:

Ohh! Ohh! Can we add Corporate Executives! I mean, seriously, the big “real” evils of the world are politicians, executives, and born-into-wealthies.

You can add a honest politician to that list as well.  No one attains wealth and power at these levels by being good people 

You can find an honest billionaire hanging out with Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny and the Tooth Fairy. Oh, that’s right! You can’t! ALL FOUR DON’T EXIST!!!

You mean the guy who is in the top 1% OF THE TOP 1% may have “earned” that money through less than scrupulous means!?!

Really hope this guy gets the brunt of ole “fuck around and find out”. Glad I’m too poor to put money in stuff, seems folks that trusted this numb nuts got took for a ride. 

“Yawn, another (liberal) author for a video game website trying to take a hit at one of the most innovative men to ever live.”

Never takes long for a Musk bro to show up and post something cringy and hilarious.   

“Woke” is another word co-opted to be an insult, in a long line of things people co-opt because the truth behind the terms and/or discussion make them uncomfortable.

It’s so funny. Yeah, you do need introspection, self doubt, and self deprecation for humor. Three things conservatives are famous for.

He’s insanely rich because he started out ridiculously rich because of apartheid South Africa, I think you can guess

So how is “being woke” a lie?

It’s proof that being a CEO is not a full time job, despite the ridiculous pay.

It’s laughable that he can spend so much time tweeting and supposedly playing games, and yet somehow claim to be in charge of multiple companies. It’s just like Trump watching cable news all day while “running the country.” There’s precious little actual work going on.
