I get what you are saying, and I have a ton of sympathy for all the people that are collateral damage in this clusterfuck.  But I just find it really hard to feel bad for people that thought investing in jpegs or virtual horse armor, or hats or whatever else stupid imaginary thing is they invested in.  All while…

Am I experiencing some schadenfreude, here? Sure. At the same time, a lot of people got suckered into these scams and their lives (and the lives of people who rely on them) are gonna be pretty fucked as a result of them losing all their money buying goddamn NFTs and whatever.

Literally everyone saw this coming.  And it is awesome.

Its a sequel to the original Chaos Gate from 1998, which for some reason is not mentioned in the this article. Which was itself an X-COM “clone” of the original X-COM games.

I mean I hate license plates and love the fourth amendment as much as anyone but I’m not sure your car has a right to privacy on public roads...I guess you’re saying that you have the right to not be identified as the owner of the car via the license plate but that’s not any more of a privacy violation than being…

Let’s see the source on that absolutely wild claim about women being more likely to die in the year after having an abortion.

You’re full of shit. Women are 14 times more likely to die in childbirth than they are to die from complications from an abortion.

As long as everyone remembers to take their outrage to the polls and VOTE ALL THESE FUCKERS OUT, nothing can change.

Everytime someone starts whining about this, they never explain what those things that NFTs can actually be used for are, and how they’re better than existing methods.

The really wild part is that I have had such few issues playing any game I throw at it that I’ve stopped even paying attention to the verified or playable statuses. In most cases, a game can quickly be made playable by forcing Proton experimental and creating a reasonable control scheme. At this point, I’ve only been…

Yeah, I don’t think I’ll ever get farm animals other than chickens. I go through a lot of eggs, but pigs and cows are too much work for too little benefit, in my opinion. 

I can only guess that someone at Sega saw Nintendo putting 3 games on 1 SKU with minimal enhancements, charge $60, and make bank.

Oh boy, gotta bring out that Robotech history lesson...

Back in the mid-80's Harmony Gold wanted to bring over an anime since Japanese Animation started to become popular. The original Macross anime series was ideal but it was only 36 episodes, not enough to offer as daily syndication. So Harmony Gold took two…

Robotech was basically three different anime strapped together for syndication. The first “season” of the show is the original “Macross,” with some judicious editing to make it more kid-friendly iirc. The remaining two are based on “Super Dimension Cavalry Southern Cross” and "Genesis Climber MOSPEADA" respectively.

So someone got pissed that their blockchain investment isn’t profitable and the managers altered the blockchain directly just to keep them happy. Again. Hm. Almost like this whole idea of blockchain being a stable alternative to real-world currency is BS.

Thanks for the video. Honestly I am okay with the cards. From what I could see it seems like card mechanics tied to abilities is the main RNG element instead of hit percentages from XCom games. I play a lot of table top games so card based actions don’t bug me.

Yeah, War of the Chosen took what looked to be a milquetoast sequel and turned it into a gat damn monster of a game.

It wasn’t a retcon, it was a sequel to the ending of most ironman games.

If getting off to hot girls older than you while under 18 makes the women pedos than I turned a lot of women in to pedos in the late 90s....oops.

Okay, but would it kill someone to make a game that wasnt at least partially focused around the Space Marines?
