The flagpole obviously represents his latent homosexuality, despite his white, masculine identifying cis male persona.

I’ll pass on getting a brain, I rather just sit back and enjoy a good jump and shoot. I’ll let the intellects apply deeper meanings to things.

at risk at being of labelled some sort of mangry mouth breather caveman, I dunno, I don’t think Hardline is really trying to be an intelligent game. It’s definitely gameplay first, everything else second (like 90% of games). It’s pulling inspiration from Cobra and Lethal Weapon and less from, I dunno, the Pelican…

Shadow of the colossus was about killing Giants to save the princess and hardline boils down to playing cops and robbers, that’s it. Videogames aren’t that deep. Stop trying to shoe horn all this existential Mombo jumbo into video games. “Yes yes but when Mario jumps over the flag...what does it all mean”

You’re preaching to the choir, brother. Goodbye, mind blades. You have served me well.

You can thank the people flying in these suites for keeping air travel affordable for the rest of us.

The trouble is, in a world like this, women like these are hard to come by, and thusly are highly prized. Hence, the plot.

An island in need of reform and economic change? Sounds like a job for El Presidente!

I bet if you built them a new harbor on your own dime they’d make an exception.

This is an intriguing story about a quaint outpost, but in a place where they “designate their property and labor shared,” ie communist, they have predictably fallen behind the world and need a bailout. This again shows that only through competition will we find the best solutions to problems. Hence, when they have a…

According to their 90’s era website (likely that way because of their slow internet connection), they make extra money by selling coins/stamps/souvenirs to collectors around the world.

You can’t, they won’t let anyone new move there.

And they're going to add a gay dude, and a minority. Im really hating how developers can no longer make a game without hurting someones feelings, or going out of their way to not seem political incorrect jusy because they made their game a certain way...

It's really not a good game. It's ugly, really poorly written (and the attempts at humor were sophomoric at best), buggy and not particularly fun. Your right that the way you said is the only way to play the game (and what I did), that is only because the combat is terrible, not because the game is actually good when…

People tend to get a bit more bothered by nearly game-breaking bugs. Also, Bethesda's games are regularly subjected to criticism about how buggy they are. Not what I'd call a good supporting example.

I find it odd that even when creating their own original IP's Obsidian still chooses to follow the template set by other franchises.

This is Obsidian we're talking about. Their QA department is probably the worst in the industry, there are times where I'm convinced that it's comprised entirely of monkeys with hammers.

I wouldn't call it "crippling", but there is an annoying bug with the cage cursor function. It will randomly stop working (usually happens after conversations for me), and the only for-sure way to get it back is to disable and re-enable the option. Alt-tabbing out and back to the game has worked for me as well, but…

Obsidian has a game plagued with crippling bugs, and the world continues to revolve, for all is in its place.

The author of the Vice article just seems very immature: Numerous relationship partners did not meet your requirements, but you continued the relationship every time? She has vowed to never give another person oral forever. Forever is a long time, girl.
