Agreed on all fronts. I also believe he has a letter of marque from the Dutch, which from his perspective makes him a legitimate pirate, but does NOT mean he has any formal support in this venture beyond that. He also was the pilot, not the captain; I don’t think he was really prepared to be in charge of any…

I don’t think that’s true, at all.

Man I’m glad I don’t have to be able to prove to the internet that I’m still friends with coworkers from 25 years ago, because those fuckers all sucked.

This is usually what evil people do. Yes, being a Saturday morning cartoon/comic book villain is a legit goal for these psychopaths.

Agreed. No one wants to squint past the dancers in the foreground to see the list; I don’t know why they insisted on doing it this way again.

A woman I work with has had MS for years but got in on a trial for a new drug sometime before Covid and recently told me that she’s basically cured at this point. She figured by this time she’d barely be able to walk but she doesn’t even need braces anymore.

There shouldn’t be anything else going on on-stage while this is running.  Just run the video.  Nothing should distract from the remembrance.

I’m loving watching Néstor Carbonell get to play so against type. All foul-mouthed and bushy and ragged. He’s usually straight-laced LEO’s or politicians.

Blackthorne being well fed - in the book everyone in the crew was jealous of him because he was the only smart one about consuming his rations. Part of the reason he ended up being signaled out as spokesperson for Erasmus wasn’t just that he was outspoken but also didn’t look like death and still had all his faculties.…

I’m living for Vasco and Cosmo’s banter

Yeah, my wife and I were thinking that if this was made like 20 years ago Russell Crowe would play Blackthorne.

Come on. Even as Buntaro is a bitch. He is a brave bitch. Valiantly fought against the odds alone at the approval of Toranaga. Definitely not a bad warrior.

I have a couple hundred hours into this game now and may have encountered one “game breaking” bug that required me to go back to the latest autosave. I’m not saying it didn’t happen, plenty of people like you attest that it does and I have no reason to doubt it. Of your points the only part I personally experienced…

So what?

What kind of human garbage threatens people, especially BABIES, over a fictional character? Just unbelievable.

I challenge Ken Levine to make a game not set in a weird city sequestered away from the rest of society.

I spent time today with my 6 month old grandson and Tickle Me Elmo is his newest buddy because he has big googly eyes that are perfect for teething drool, and when Elmo giggles so does my grandson. In short, I had a great day, Elmo, thanks for asking.

Travel is boring? That’s not true. It’s only an issue because your game is boring
