The Great Game Giveaway: Tuesday Edition
I have 3 new games that fell off the back of a truck Press X to Not Die HunieCam Studio The Black Death Same rules as always but if anyone offers to review the games, especially the last one, then they may get preferential treatment PS kgambit is correct, if you pay the dollar you'll get 1 key for each of the first 5 games (since they are all Steam). Pay the $8.04 and get 11 games total. 12 bucks gets you the last 2 games as well for a total of 13 games

What is a pet worth?
Wow this has really gone off the rails I thought the issue was about if the law should allow for recouping expenses incurred beyond market value if someone else is responsible for injuries or death to your pets. I agree with that but I'm not so sure about pain and suffering. Anyway, I'll just see myself out

- What is a pet worth?
Pets aren't people I don't think anyone here has argued for personhood for pets. They are property but not the same as any type of inanimate property and not the same as livestock either. My argument is that pets should have a special category of property for things like this case especially since the business in question is arguing against the premise of it's own existence in a way if agrees that dogs have no worth beyond their market value, it's a luxury dog hotel... From their own website It will be interesting to see how/if it impacts their business Mind you, I grew up in the country and didn't live in a city until after I got out of the military (where we also had working dogs - whose handlers were also very attached to them). We cared about the wellbeing of all the animals even knowing full well we'd be killing, cleaning, and eating them later on but those animals were also not considered pets either PS I'm also open to the possibility that where I grew up may just be full of hippy farmers- What is a pet worth?
I like pets more than I like most people so I'm not exactly impartial here but I think that dogs and other household pets should have a special category with its own rules and conditions. They are more than just property to many people and just because they don't make money doesn't put them in the same category as whatever random object (and if you feel a pet had no more value than a shoe or a toaster you probably shouldn't have one). There are no TV cruelty laws. Also, as GD said already that the business in question is predicated on the notion that the pets are worth more to their owners than their replacement costs- US Election 2016

The ones where the characters don't carry over to the next game pretty much end in SoD when they have to railroad it into the start of BG2 and their BG1 companions already continue on I'm more surprised that they allow you to romance Viconia since I don't think they are going to change her BG2 dialogue around for that to make sense- RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
