Plus, it’s not like this is anything is new. Trump’s been calling people to his office (Kanye, MLK Jr.’s son, etc.) and using them for photo ops for months now. Everyone that leaves thinks they made a difference, because Trump’s a con man and made them believe so. Instead, he used them for cred. Yeah, they all got…

I don’t think there’s any such thing. When’s the last time there’s been a Black Republican who wasn’t shucking and jiving and basically being the token for these racist white Republicans?

This is why we need true black republicans. Not Omarosa or Uncle Ben. True right of center folks that can be at the table to represent African Americans during those 4 or 8 years the other party is in power. Right now we are truly on the sidelines.

My vote is you decline the invite. Showing up is normalizing this man and an administration that has deliberately disrespected HBCU students and their families.

I wonder how the invitation should have been handled? Does one actually go into the lion’s den and hope that he actually benefits rather than mauls you? What do you do when you are there and when you leave? Do you refuse the picture? Do you say something like “We are glad to meet with the President of the United…

A large chunk of eve players are griefers, and a larger chunk believe that there should be no hi-sec/safe space at all. They want to be able to engage and pvp anyone at any time. CCP likes to cater the game to this group.

This is worded in a strange way, but what it actually means is that CONCORD cannot be outrun by ships with in-game means––if you’re going fast enough to avoid them, you’re exploiting something.

Alien 1: “So what did they do today?”
Alien 2: “Well a bunch of the creative ones paid actual resources and spent months playing a space simulator that involves travel and economics. Then another group of humans decided to do the same, but with the…

Those two words are my reaction to this game in general.

Every time this happens, I’m fascinated and confused.

Guess that proves he’s right though. The only reason it would make you mad is if it hit too close to home.

I’m glad all the people who don’t play Zelda games are finally getting the Zelda they want, with the open world and whatever, pretending like the First Zelda game for NES was the only one that mattered.

Right, clarification, cause you got it wrong.

I’m in love with Jim Sterling’s duality of having some of the most banal, bizarre, and crude humor out there while also having one of the sharpest, most insightful minds analyzing the gaming industry right now. It is good that he won.

I wouldn’t say pointless, it’s a good demonstration of the legality of criticism and fair use thereof.

Meh, I am really enjoying it. Granted I do not play many RTS games so perhaps my standards are not ridiculously high. It is a solid game.

The whole thing feels like a HD remake of a very old 90s RTS, the kind full of missions where you’d just walk a bunch of units from point to points lowly grinding past every enemy mob you encounter along the way.

Been asking for the sequel for years. Hopefully we get another!

I really can’t stand normal RTSs, but I loved jumping onto Halo Wars and doing some multiplayer with buddies against AI. As a matter of fact, that’s what I did this past weekend. Yay for backwards compatibility.

Loved the first one, really enjoying this for the same reasons, it’s quick enough to jump into without hours of micromanagement and the environments and visuals are a nice upgrade. Coop vs AI matches are my sweet spot. Def not a replacement for the real RTS experience but I don’t think it’s supposed to be. This is a…
