There’s no satisfactory way to compare morality on a society level scale throughout the ages: just as we might argue against resorting to violence, they would argue that we beg others to fight for our beliefs instead of doing it ourselves, and that’s impossible to reconcile.

The big problem with Skyrim is the dated feeling gameplay (the enemies all feel pretty samey,) and Enderal doesn’t really help with that, but the deficiency is less noticeable since the game is a bit harder.

The gameplay wasn’t the big criticism in the review: it was the contradictory writing. Subjective, sure, but not without its reason.

It would actually be pretty funny to see how mundane a What If event could get before the readers riot: “Okay, Wolverine puts on some Axe body spray to appeal to Jean, but he ends up as President of the United States, and marries Magneto at the inauguration.”

One’s an immortal dragon who upholds the balance of nature.

You don’t need a massive change in rocket technology: a Sky Hook would solve most of the big problems with getting to space.

“The requirement that employees must speak with the company before contacting the state department.”

The single player stuff in Wargame never really stood out, and it introduced too many mechanics that almost worked, but mostly didn’t, like the ships.

“Are you single” is such boring trolling: can’t you at least do something more interesting, like a thorough debunking of Dragons: A Fantasy Made Real by comparing dragons to Kazuma Kiryu? And just get more and more obnoxious about it, like someone with strong political opinions on Reddit who keeps getting ignored.

The pollution mechanic seems to have been kind of tacked on at the end: I don’t remember it being in most of the Dev builds, at least, so I wouldn’t be surprised if it was rushed out.

Well, they could make it less of an obvious race by using the Era Star system better: instead of rushing to mars, there could also be projects to do things like creating the first library/code of laws, circumnavigate the world, and so on.

Honestly, it feels like a Free to Play game with a massive price tag attached: bullets don’t come out of the barrel, balance is weird, the guns feel sterile, gameplay elements are badly (if ever) explained, the levels are mostly dull...it’s a mess.

Cosby’s ruling wasn’t overturned on a “technicality,” the government literally lied to convict him: if Cosby refused to testify after he was promised that criminal charges wouldn’t be used against him, he could be held in jail until he did. Then, when he testified to prevent that, the government turned right around

This is basically why I’ve never felt compelled to replay a CoD game beyond the first two.

Someone once said that Rockstar was the Chaotic Evil of modding (with Nintendo being the Lawful Evil, and Bethesda being the Chaotic Good,) and this article is a perfect example of that.

War Thunder has a LOT of stuff that’s wrong, particularly in optics, and the actual effectiveness of certain shells and armor.

It isn’t actually all that hard to install Linux on a PS4, you just lose some functionality if you do.

They can sue for as much as they want, but what they’ll almost always get is directly related to the harm done: it’s rare, but courts have been known to go, “you are technically correct, but there was no actual harm, so here’s a dollar.” The exceptions tend to be when judges want to make a point.

I heard Obama Nation a lot about a decade ago...

It may actually not be possible at all: all someone would have to do is use the name of actors and the like in a slightly condescending way. For example, if someone started calling a streamer, “a big red Elliot Page,” people can more-or-less infer that something like that is meant to be harassment, but a bot would
