Agreed. Anyone bothered by this is a grievance seeker and can be safely disregarded. Sadly, such people are growing in number.

There was no “punching at stereotypes”. He was saying his shooting is like someone with an illness. Just happens that illness is in the new right now. It was a lame attempt at topical humor. Nothing more, nothing less. I would go so far as to say anyone who is offended by this is unserious and should not be taken into…

I think you’re missing the point. That poor “quality of life” of these old titles is largely what MADE them difficult. By removing them, but being gentler, you absolutely make games easier. Take two games with identical “difficulty”. One of them gives infinite lives. The other only 3 lives with 3 continues. The one…

They look a lot alike. Facial structure, bald pate, emotional grit. I know a lot of people of all races who confuse these two.

“To this day, no one has ever built a bridge over that ditch.”

Fair enough, but this is quite obviously NOT racism. Do you even know what the word means?

Blackface is awful. On that, I think we can all agree. But fuck, this is not blackface. People who call this blackface are ignorant. At worst this is potentially CONSIDERED blackface and that’s a fair reason to discuss it, but damn it, this is not blackface. Blackface is caricature, it’s demeaning, it’s exclusionary,…

This is awesome. It’s one of the reasons I could never play games like Modern Warfare. I always ALWAYS go off the path and in the MW games, you’re constantly stopped by bullshit road blocks or other barriers to keep you on the path. It’s rage inducing. If you can’t play a shooter at your own pace with your own style…

There is no justice in the world. So while we wait and rage for it that never comes, we achieve little. But if a person can forgive and move on, life can begin again. There are many wrongs in this world, racism chief among them.Neither rage nor forgiveness can fix it. But one of them is much easier on the human spirit…

I once had a 15 year old boy in my summer school class make me feel uneasy for what he put HIS finger on. Thankfully he didn’t turn out to be a 22 yo ukrainian national. That would have been particularly weird.

“I would fact-check before I tweeted out to the internet.”

You’re 40 years old and just realizing that the shit gamers say online is nonsense and the vocal minority online is jack shit compared to the mass market who don’t piss and boycott for every perceived transgression or accusation. They just want a fun game at a fair price. Well, welcome to adulthood I guess. :)…

It’s not just at work. It’s at home, too.  The one that kills me is when you’re out mowing your lawn and before or after starting the mower, your neighbor says “gonna do mine next?”. Also happens if you’re washing your car in your drive way.

Ok, yeah, in both BL1 and BL2, you beat the main game at level 35 and the second playthrough at level 50. I’m guessing it will be the same on BL3.

Ok, that sounds better. Is 35 still the level at which you beat the first playthrough?

Ok, thanks, I’ll hold off. I still play BL1 on occasion and around level 15 you’ll start getting all sorts of cool purples and oranges. I didn’t get a really good orange in BL2 until the end game when it didn’t really matter. Sucked.

How’s the drop rate specifically? Is it just greens and whites all the time with a rare blue like BL2? Or are they more generous with purples and oranges this time around? BL1 gave out an orange every few levels and purples every or so. BL2 might go 5 levels without seeing a purple and 10 much longer between oranges.…

I think reporting on cases like this should be evidence based only. If accusers got personal interest stories prior to proving allegations, the number of false accusations would skyrocket. It’s one person’s words against another until a court decides otherwise. To talk more about it than that is not a good idea.…

Loved the weapons and drop rate in BL1 but the weapons in BL2 were so balanced as to be boring. And you rarely ever got a purple or orange. The variety in BL1 was so good you could equip 4 pistols, 1 for each type of combat, or 4 SMGs or 4 shotties. But in Bl2, each type of weapons is very homogenized. Almost every…

I think if a man came to a party with a woman on a leash wearing a vibrator ball gag, it would be a tough sell to get him into congress.
