Yes, because that’s clearly what AOC does all day, every day. You’re being deliberately obtuse. This was an effective way to connect with (a lot) of voters. The future of this country is the 400k people who watched her stream, not the mummies that shamble out of their caves to attend a Trump rally. 

The only thing I can think of, outside of Benioff and Weiss’s almost fetish-like attitude regarding violence against women, is that making it a young, powerless and innocent character helped establish that Walder Frey didn’t care anything about his wives, or his sons, really anything except power. I don’t remember how…

Eh, I don’t disagree with your general point. Way too much violence against women in the source material, and the show absolutely ran with that and even made it worse in some instances. But in this case, when there were already several main character deaths and hundreds (thousands?) of implied deaths, there’s some…

Excuse me, sir. I have a small penis and I would NEVER buy something like that. 

Sure, but Garland was Obama’s nomination 4 years ago. Trump would never deign to align himself with a decision Obama made. And his trash monster cult would view Garland as a liberal socialist communist plant who destroy their way of life. Which is ridiculous given how moderate a pick Garland was in the first place,…

Yep, I have a 2020 Volvo SC60 and it’s almost entirely a touch-screen interface (still has a volume knob, thank God), which has taken some getting use to. But the integrated app that lets you lock your doors or remote start on chilly mornings is awesome. The app even lets me know if the doors are unlocked, which is…

Altima jumped out at me. I see a TON of them on the road.

Agree completely, I really enjoyed Liberation and would love to see the female perspective explored more. I don’t really have any issue with choosing a male or female protagonist like in Odyssey and Valhalla, I like having the choice, and that’s the direction they are moving in. But I sometimes miss the tighter…

What the fuck are you talking about? Nobody said females are automatically stronger and better. I’m saying there have been 7 or 8 AC games with a male protagonist, one (not main series) game with a female protagonist, 1 where it bounces back and forth (Syndicate), and 2 where you can choose a male or female main…

Definitely agree a story focused on that would have been great, but Ubi was limited by giving people the option to choose male or female character without having to write two different stories. I can understand the limitation, and I’m glad we had the option to play as Kassandra, but an Assassin’s Creed game from an…

That’s what I was going to say. Don’t love all her music, but Jolene is a fantastic song. 

You are absolutely right, I did misread it. My apologies! We’re definitely aligned on Kassandra and Evie. Ezio will always have a special place in my heart, but those two are right up there with him as my favorites in the series. 

Evie was great!

IDK, I thought Kassandra was a way better protagonist than Alexios. I thought he was pretty generic. I enjoyed Kassandra’s personality more. 

I wish I had your confidence in the outcome of the election. Everything *should* point to Biden winning in a landslide, but with the whole dismantling of the post office and the Trump already setting the stage for questioning the results, I have a feeling this will drag on forever. Although I love that fact that…

I like to think that the inbred racists who would be apoplectic over a black woman as VP are already fully in Trump’s camp, and so there wouldn’t be much downside for the Dems. I would love to see Stacy Abrams or Kamala Harris named as his running mate, and hope we (the left) can focus on the positives of such a…

Right, I knew Activision used to make them, but I still thought they were only on Sony consoles. But a quick Google search showed me they were available on Xbox, so you’re right. The whole IP thing with Sony, Marvel and Spiderman is weird. 

I’m definitely not a lawyer and I imagine it’s pretty complicated, but the fact that every stand-alone Spiderman title has been (to the best of my knowledge) ONLY available on Playstation consoles would seem to indicate they have some control over the IP in a video game setting. Spiderman has shown up in ensemble…

It has to be the second. I can’t imagine why the developer would deliberately choose to keep Spiderman out of the other versions. If they’re given a choice between no Spiderman at all, or Spiderman ONLY on Playstation, of course they’re going to play ball. I’m not particularly interested in this game, but it’s…

Seriously, how good is this game? I had high hopes for it since almost every in-house Sony studio makes awesome stuff, but it’s easily my game of the year so far. Even ahead of TLOU 2, which I had been looking forward to for years and enjoyed playing...but I’ve just had so much more FUN with Ghost. It almost has a…
