You died of a heart attack, you were killed by a heart attack. "Killed by a heart attack" isn't very colloquial, but what's colloquial is not necessarily equal to what's correct. Killed in a car accident seems very colloquially correct to me, but what do I know. (e): There were like 4 posts in between me posting this and the last one I was reading.

The premise sounded at least interesting. However, I thought it was going to be more strategy with RPG elements than the other way around...if it's gonna be a CRPG using Pillars of Eternity tech, I think we can safely throw that out the window...

What?

rip in pieces in pizza in Pisa Sander's campaign

I think that may literally be the biggest game box I've ever seen.

Could you give us an example of what one forum did to make you leave?

I hate word problems... ...and also the fact that I'm absolutely terrible at them. I also feel like that the novelty of eating Pizza Hut every day would wear off awfully fast. I could probably handle that for a few days in a row before I never wanted to eat it again.

From my experience of multiplayer FPS games, it's more like that the vast majority of FPS players are pretty stinking bad. However, only some types of shooters highlight this fact, whereas some other types of shooters don't. It's extremely noticeable in a game like TF2, for example, where the overwhelming majority of players are clearly and absolutely terrible, and where one half-decent player with good game sense and decent aim can come in and start absolutely wrecking the rest of the server. It's not unusual for a simply decent player to make enough of an impact where the other team will literally start leaving en masse because they simply can't do anything. Other games, such as Counter-Strike, can make it seem the opposite way because of the very sudden death nature of the game, where one bullet can and will kill another player, no matter how good they are. Sure, a good player will absolutely have a great edge over other players who may or may not be bad, but...the effect is nothing like you'll find in a game like TF2. I'm not sure how this applies to the Division, exactly, because I haven't played it, though. I would guess from the Tom Clancy label that it would be more like Counter-Strike, but I know next to nothing about the game, so...

In other news, in a CNN interview, Bernie Sanders denounced any of his supporters using violence in the protests against Trump, which I'm happy to hear, since I actually fully agree with Volourn here (at least, in this particular facet of the argument). Not that that's any surprise - he's arguing against Bruce, so of course he's correct.

I was pretty disappointed that Sanders didn't disavow the protestors using his name that were causing trouble. Maybe he wasn't fully aware of the situation, which only lead to a limited response from him, but that is some awful PR waiting to happen if he doesn't denounce them as being the troublemakers they are being.

Nope. The only two resolutions options (the better of which is 800x600) are still just the same.

Unfortunately, it also completely breaks the Glide API wrappers, which means even if I wanted to play, I wouldn't until that's fixed. I don't enjoy sub-30 frame rates, and I don't enjoy the 10-15 second game freezes after killing bosses when you're using the awful Direct2D/Direct3D APIs. Not that I'm really in the market to play Diablo 2 again at all or anything, but it is rather important for that to be fixed if I did want to play.

Ironically, the night is brighter (because of a full moon) than the "evening" that the game starts out at.

Ah...I see they've brought back Iron Maiden, only new and improved.

I actually feel as though the weapons are smaller in Bloodborne than they were in Dark Souls. If anything, it makes sense for the weapons in Bloodborne to be larger (even though it doesn't feel like they are to me) because the characters are supposed to be weird mutant vampire superhuman creatures, whereas in Dark Souls, you're just some guy/girl. Bloodborne kind of feels like my way of playing Dark Souls (light/no armor, no shield, fast-paced) on steroids, whereas Dark Souls 2 felt like trying to play while sedated. Enjoying it so far.

It told me to stop playing it a few weeks ago after playing it for like 45 minutes, maybe an hour...so I did. I don't like ham-fisted narratives with stupid "twists".

I know for a fact that if some of my friends knew you were giving that (and the other horrible anime games) away, they would claim it specifically to gift to me to torture me in making me play it. However, because none of them are on here, I do not have to worry about such sick, twisted scenarios playing out.

I'm less upset about Chipman's seemingly perpetually reprehensible behavior and opinions than I am about the fact that some people still care enough about him to take the time out of their day to screenshot the random garbage that comes out of his mouth (or fingers, in this case, I guess). C'mon, we don't need to promote this lunatic.

Bernie also polled better in the initial batch of Southern states than he actually ended up doing - another part of why I'm greatly afraid of Florida. And unfortunately, the fact that the South almost certainly won't vote for the Democrats either way has little bearing on the nomination process itself. :/

There's still Florida to account for, which is a very large amount of delegates, and which he is polling horribly in. Tying (or, in this case, slightly winning) Michigan was very important for him to remain at least sort of viable, but now we're on to the next very frightening milestone, one which, if the rest of the South is any indication, he might very well lose badly. Still, at least there is at least some optimism remaining after today, when it was widely predicted there wouldn't be.

Yes. AP (the Associated Press) officially declares Sanders win in Michigan.

According to fivethirtyeight (the most accurate pollster/aggregate pollster, supposedly?), the previous greatest upset in American primary history was Walter Mondale winning the Democrat NH primary while trailing 17.1 points. Clinton lead Bernie by 21.3 in Michigan. It might not end up mattering in the grand scheme of things, but at least he can stick that feather in his cap, I guess. (e): Well, assuming he actually ends up winning, that is. Detroit doesn't like him very much, it seems.

Ah, that explains why I didn't see this pile of garbage before it was already 8 pages long.
