Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2

oh yeah people going to churches here are a super tiny minority. Those who say are christian are probably baptised and that’s it.

They’ve been working on this for a few years now, just keeping the studio behind it a secret after the decision to change from Hardsuit Labs. Also “Fall 2024" is over a year away from today, and not 6 months.

Kotaku poorly paraphrased the original article. The Chinese Room has been working on the game for about two years, it just hadn’t been announced until now. The relevant bit from the PC Gamer interview actually says:

I looked it up and in France 22.8% declared to be atheists, and 17.6% declared to be agnostics. And the rest who identify as Christians I am guessing is similar to the US where its become more a cultural identity than serious belief considering only 5% of the population in France attends weekly services.

He made it to Paris? Paris, France? Across the Atlantic Ocean? The really big one, that ocean?

Okey dokey.

whose birth from a pregnant walker is considered by many to be a miracle.

“Religious fanatics in the zombie apocalypse” sounds absolutely tedious.

I almost wonder if whoever put in this little detail wanted the time to be just faster than the world record, but confused minutes and seconds.

The Last of Us is to The Walking Dead as Casablanca is to a monkey fucking a coconut.

And can do a Rubik’s Cube in 3 minutes, 12 seconds! ...which is a passable time for somebody who has gotten the hang of the “beginner’s method” but hasn’t really focused on getting their time down. The world record is 3.13 seconds.

If most viewers are anything like me (a sickening premise, obviously), they’re just bored of TWD. It’s been 13 years. The pilot was excellent, the first season was good, second through maybe fifth seasons were decent. As I recall it’s been downhill since. The whole show became a soap opera at best, and a gloomy…

“can recite the names of all the world’s countries and capitals”

It’s been how many years since the outbreak in-universe, why is it that nation-states still seem to meaningful exist as some kind of useful touchstone?

I assume because he hadn’t intended to embarrass Desantis. I mean if I ask a candidate a question (even one I support) and they catch shit for thier non-answer; I would say they earned it themselves. Not like I asked them to break down a random hard question not related to politics or policy.

Uh...did you support January 6, or, failing that, spend months kissing the ass of the guy who organized and hoped to primarily benefit from January 6? No? Then you don’t need to justify it. Ron DeSantis does.

Honestly, not surprising that De Santis is threatened by this. He’s even more thin skinned and entitled than his Orange Overlord was. A bigger question is why the rest of the media left asking this question to a kid? If De Santis campaign didn’t have a canned answer ready for this incredibly obvious question, then…

“Well, I’m a mother too. I know what you’re experiencing, and we’re all very afraid for our children—even if they’re exaggerating,” Casey reportedly told her...

“the rite included a prayer circle in Schlapp’s office, which one person described as performative and inauthentic."

I think a lot of it has to do with the resurfacing of Steven Tyler’s highly inappropriate relationships with minors in his younger days. For me they also lost some of their “cool” over the years when they brought in outside writers so they could have big radio hits. Steven Tyler being a judge or host on one of the…

I like Aerosmith, but I would put them in the “has a good Best of album” category, instead of the “has 40 great songs” category.
