What Are You Playing Now: The New Beginning Thread
ShadySands replied to Amentep's topic in Computer and Console
I thought you had Game Pass? You can grab it for free. I've installed it but haven't been able to bring myself to launch the game yet -
I made a Bourbon spiked Dr Pepper (sorry not sorry, root beer) float.

The Sharn expansion was released just last year and there is one supposedly coming out this year called Feywild. -

Going to give Grounded a spin since it's free on Game Pass Now that I think about it, I wonder if the release was the cause of the forum issues -
Only Hobbits start in the Shire but you can go to all the starting areas for cheap at the stables in Michel Delving. Men and Man-bears start in Archet in Bree-land, all Elves start in Celondim in Ered Luin, and all dwarves also start in Ered Luin but in the north at Thorin's Hall. When I start a new character I pretty much always complete all the starting areas before moving on. I'm always amused by how low stakes the Shire is in general.

Playing DDO. Finally got my warlock to 20 and then reincarnated as a wizard. My goal was to max out sorc and wiz past life feats then get back to warlocking but that's a lot of work that I'm not sure I have the patience for. -

I'm having fun making my bear go bear on some orcs. Then I ran into another bear but since I'm a larger bear eating bear that bear stood no chance -
Isometric camera option? Turn based? Run flat tires and a full size spare? RTS sections with FMV cutscenes? Enslave nations with necromancy? 4x Sci-Fi space exploration?

A dark day

I'm not sure I ever got a 4.8 which leads to my problem with it. I think the highest I ever got was 4.7* and that was after adjustments my platoon made after seeing what others in the company were submitting. My units were always on the low side of grading, our Master Guns was like only Jesus gets a 5 and only Chesty rates a 4.9. Average was like 4.0 to 4.2 and stellar was 4.5. It made us less competitive for picking up rank. Overall though I agree with you with it being the best meritocracy that I've ever seen. Not just here but I've been seeing ZeroHedge links pop up all over the place lately. Is it the new Breitbart or something? *No, I wasn't a bad Marine or anything :P. I picked up Sgt in about 3.5 years with no meritorious anything.

In my particular unit everything was on the up and up but there were always stories and rumors of stuff going on elsewhere on base. Some of it was even true. Forgot how much I disliked the pro/con scores since they were so subjective. If your unit was too conservative with their grading then you could be screwed on your cutting score.

I vaguely remember having to sit through safety briefs on gangs and right wing groups infiltrating the military with more emphasis on the right wing groups. This was all before Obama as I got out in December of 08.

Mostly Lord of the Things Online and Star Trek Online but I'm thinking of picking Elder Scrolls Online back up since I took a break after hitting level 50. -
The thing with most of Trump's lies are that they are so small and petty that it's easy to chalk them up as him just misspeaking but since he also has a tendency to double down on them every so often that it mostly disproves that theory. A good chunk of them don't require any serious fact checking and can simply be googled. I mean his term started off with a lie about such a stupid thing as crowd sizes. It's mostly pointless lies but the volume is such that his every word draws scrutiny and his antagonistic relationship with most journalists and news organizations isn't doing him any favors in this regard. Most of the extra scrutiny that he gets he's brought on himself. That said, it has otherwise been a wildly successful tactic for him whether it's intentional or not. He is president after all, an unpopular one to be sure, but still president.

https://www.census.gov/quickfacts/fact/table/US/PST045219 It's pretty close to what I just said

That's one of those should be obvious type things. Last I checked black people only make up about 13% of the population so if they got shot more in total numbers than non-Hispanic white people, which are over 60% of the population (I think all white people are around 75%), then something would be really, really wrong. Also, who checks the fact check checkers?

Thankfully Zor answered because I had no idea. I just saw an opportunity for a free game and shared it.
