It’s not really that odd a setup. Most Paradox games (like Stellaris) are real time 4X games. 

I’m gonna say it, “You get what you fuckin deserve.” Fuckin Scalpers. 

He should just consider a name that’s adjacent. If he wants something brutal, animals fit the bill so at random I would go for Wolf. We want to convey hardness so let’s just choose another word at random... Stone sounds good. Now Wolfstone sounds pretty good but let add a bit a flair let’s just choose a random

You’re right that it wouldn’t be hard to store every possible board state and its outcomes, but it would be impossible.

Before the usual hate jerk for this game kicks into full swing, let me just say this.

I played it a bunch when it first came out. I really liked their tag line of ‘rebuilding together’ and yet that is exactly what it does not have. Nothing changes, nothing is persistent, there is so little ‘together’ involved as every update brings more PVP which makes no sense (unless they add factions and you are at

Same, I'm not sure it was worth the meme it became where dunking on it was required by everyone. I loved my time with it, even if it would have been way better with just co-op and at least a few people around.

I own 76, and i dont regret buying it. The story and lore are very well done. (albiet the storytelling methods are repetitive) As a massive fallout fan they did the lore right. Theres no real significant retcons or anything. I enjoyed exploring the world quite a bit.

So I’ve been a bit peeved that *so much* focus among “progressives” has been on free college. Yes, student debt is stifling (ask me about my remaining 27k balance) and yes, it’s an issue that touches young voters.... but college is still a privilege that largely benefits the white middle/upper class. While it’s a

As someone who plays this consistently. These repair kits will make no difference to the “balance of power”. Yeah, you’ll save a little bit of time, maybe some caps, and some scrap. But scrap is so plentiful and crafting stations are pretty much everywhere, this is a fairly worthless item that mostly just save you

We demand Fippy Darkpaw.

Yeah, its just a matter of telling Twitch Prime what Nintedo account to us.

Weddings are a day for your parents’ friends to get completely shitcanned with your friends and badly dance to decades-old pop music.

I registered to vote at the Post Office (this was about 15 years ago), and when I signed up for Selective Service it was automatically tied-in with voter registration.  Could be voter registration that draws jurists; been awhile!

Seriously, it’s likely some of these “bicycles” fucked like 2, 3 guys tops. That’s how men (at least misogynistic men) are.

“Women have lower fitness standards in the military than Men, yet they still get paid the same amount as men who work harder than they do and have to meet tougher standards than they have to.”

Never heard about Selective Service being used for juries, usually it’s linked to voter registration or maybe drivers’ licenses. If it were Selective Service, you’d end up with all-male juries. Even if it were only partly based on Selective Service, it would introduce a bias toward male jurors. 

“..The problem with the question of ‘what do men want?’ is that they usually just tell you, rather inelegantly...”

It *IS* wrong. And all it does is teach kids that it’s OK to hit/beat/be violent to *other* people...and we want to teach kids this...why???

My husband and I *never* hit (or used *any* violence against) our daughter. We used time outs/groundings instead AND, most important, KEPT to what we said the punishment would
