I liked The White March probably more than the base game but if I had to guess what my opinion on games is worth I'd say somewhere in the neighborhood of -0

The US Election, Part XI
I have difficulty mustering up much sympathy for Obama...or the Democratic Party in general...when it was partly thanks to their efforts in trying to ensure that Hillary won the primaries that we now have Trump as president. It's not like her various scandals and flaws weren't well-known then. No, I feel bad for Bernie Sanders, who was cheated and insulted by the people who were supposed to share a similar ideology to him...and for all of us who actually tried to get him to win. And the fact he was a far left populist didnt bother you ? Barti I liked Sanders, I always did but you realize many things he promised or suggested he wouldn't be able to actually do....like breaking up the Investment Banks ? Separate investment and commercial banking is how it was from the 1930s (correct me if I'm wrong here) until Bill Clinton so it doesn't seem that radical to me

- What can OE learn from Tyranny to better PoE 2
Hit the Conquest button after making a character and you get the introduction to the universe. Nah you don't. You get a series of choices to make in a conquest campaign of a place you know nothing of at the moment. And you care not for the moment. Couldn't disagree more I thought it was a great intro to the game world- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
Because it's there. Pretty much this Like how some are focused on a Mars colony when a moon colony would be easier and cheaper- What's on the idiot box?
I tried to watch that last night but my wife got bored less than 5 minutes in so I'll try to squeeze it in today before she gets home- The 'Sidian Tyranny thread

My problem is that there are very few games I'm interested in. These isometric party based RPGs (Tyranny and PoE) are right up my alley but it's a really narrow alley So when a game comes out that I actually like I tend to play the hell out of it- Pillars of eternity or Tyranny?
This is what I feared, I probably won't be getting it. Not that I always stay away from that kind of content, far from it - but in this isometric party-based CRPG format, I'm not exactly chuffed to bits, enduring choices and consequences in a 20h stream of contrived evil deeds. I'm looking forward to Torment (Ironic, given its title, no?) and PoE2. On the plus side most of the quests like that have multiple resolutions so you don't have to be all grimdark all the time or even most of the time. The NPCs sometimes even react to it if they feel you are too nice or too merciful- What are you playing right now
Almost done with my second playthrough of Tyranny. Going to wait for more patches or whatever until I do a third so not sure what I'm going to play in between since the next SWTOR "expansion" doesn't come out until the end of the month. Maybe I'll finally get around to TWitcher 3 but the second game turned me off of the series so much that it's going to take a miracle to get me to finally install it So probably more CK2 and Stellaris- Pillars of eternity or Tyranny?
I don't think it ever gets to the point of Stabby McStabinson IV but some of the crazy people faction have some pretty out there names, more along the lines of Mad Max style names. Toecutter, Moon Bloodgood, Tom Petty, etc- Pillars of eternity or Tyranny?
I do believe Ashe explains how he got his name if you go the Disfavored path but in general if you are already bothered it's only going to get worse in the naming department- The 'Sidian Tyranny thread
- Favorite Charities
They typically have substance abuse problems that eliminate any type of profit they may be making. If I have time I give them food and clothes (especially in the winter) over money I've only ever met one guy that passed and only wanted money and I so ended up not giving him anything- What's on the idiot box?
New Inhumans TV show? I dunno, I kinda stopped watching Agents of SHIELD last season- Pillars of eternity or Tyranny?
Pretty much this I prefer Tyranny but only Pillars has shapeshifting and summoning- The 'Sidian Tyranny thread
