So go in January...it’s quiet, Japanese winters in Tokyo/Kyoto/Osaka are mild...and it is very quiet.

It will be total hell next year Bash, get away from the cities, the throngs of rude tourists are coming. :P

I’ve been in Japan in 2007, and then again in 2018. With family members, 6 of them, so I suppose I only added to the problem. We are all japanese descendants, have relatives living there. Oh, from Brazil.

And with that, GOT comes to an end.

I’m hoping Blops 5 will be written as IIII

So I listened to the show earlier, and it’s great as always...but I do feel the need to point one thing out.

Pretty much everyone was absolutely crazy about the original FMA anime all the way through...until Brotherhood came out, when all of a sudden Brotherhood was the definitive version and the first version was now b…

Really stupid.

Already 8 main comments read, and none seems to realize what it’s all about. It’s not about a building, not a symbol of christianism, it’s a matter of 1000 years of something that was in a lot of every single people’s lives.

Given that a) Ubisoft is a French company headquartered in Montreuil in the suburbs of Paris b) Ubisoft used the Notre Dame in a recent videogame so the case can be made that some of it’s profits can be attributed to people’s interest in it, it seems to make a lot of sense that they would feel strongly about…

The PS4 is the first Playstation with off-the-shelf PC components rather than the custom CPUs/GPUs of the PS1 through PS3 - no Cell chip, no Reality Synthesizer, no Emotion Engine, nothing custom for devs to code games to run on. Because of that, backwards-compatibility to the PS4 is a lot simpler in later Playstation…

Exactly. I’m not very good at games, and I have to work hard at them to win a lot of times. I’ll usually try normal difficulty, but don’t mind switching to easy if I need to. I haven’t played any of From Software’s games, but as long as they were difficult but fair, I’d be fine with that. When it’s difficult and feels…

You realize that communism immediately means that you don’t get to do what you want, right? Like, “Oh, it’s great, the system will provide for everyone’s needs and there won’t be any wealth disparity!” And then you wake up one day and realize you don’t want to work in the government-owned Box Factory(tm), and that you…

You say that like its a bad thing. Communists killed an estimate 90million people in purges, pograms and man-made famine. Its a disgusting ideology and its clear the people living under it hated it. 

as I do recall reading that the forces of Sauron were all based on the “non-civilized” races(The mongols, Africans in general (I think), ect) while the good guys were all based on the “civilized” races (Europeans) with Hobbits based specifically on the English.

No, that is a bastardized view of Tolkien and his work. Its getting popular these days but Tolkien never once endorsed that view. In fact those that propose this view tend to only look at Lord of the Rings and not his entire work. The Orcs for example weren’t the violent others people keep saying, they were Sauron and…

If we really want to argue weirdo semantics, he actually said “Japan,” which to me means we’re discussing the nation state itself versus the people themselves. So like how we can say Nazi Germany was fucking bad and was rightly destroyed, the Empire of Japan was fucking bad and rightfully destroyed. Of course, Russia…

Tolkien’s basis for The Lord of the Rings and other books were his experiences as a boy, adult hood through WW 1 and his conversion to Catholicism, had nothing to do with race; that is very much reaching in his part.

Haha, no, that’s Creature in the Well

Wait, Tim Rogers is playing? In the office? Not alone? With lights on?

20 years and I still haven’t played anything as beautiful as this game.
