Resident Evil Village, a game with NO ZOMBIES ironically, won Steam GOTY award. As a fan of the series since the getgo I am a little surprised at this, it's not even remotely how the series started out (Mansions, puzzles, corporate lab conspiracies, Zombies) yet Capcom has announced they want to make RE a primarily PC franchise now, at the same time transforming it into werevolves, vampires, and supernatural Gothic fiction. Talk about a mind****. I like the PC priorities but they really gotta return the series to its roots to make me truly happy here...

Careful guys, there's actually hitman networks deep in the bowels of internet now. I mean yes, 90% of them are scams or undercover police but there's been some reports about actual hits being carried out. @Guard Dog giving someone on the internet your physical address: Not a good idea!

Dude what the Hell. I don't have lots of money and he made all that money because there's a fishing surplus in my area and he jumped right on it. Back breaking work that's not even worth all that cash imo considering the long term damage it does to your body.

Ah see but the U.S. and "The Rest of the World" did nothing when the Iranians (A much more pitiful adversary) bombed U.S. forces (not an island of a foreign nation) so it would be surprising if the U.S. did any kind of retaliation in Taiwan, going by recent developments anyway. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/jan/07/trump-iran-suleimani-threats-retaliation

Getting my **** together for my new career. 2022 should be a very interesting year if everything falls in place.

When laptops are your platform of choice, controller support is very helpful. Considering it is being released on consoles as well I'm reasonably confident Steam version will have controller support. In my personal experience controller support may be detrimental in online shooters (which I do not play but did in fact have l33t Battlefield skills back in the day) but not PvE shooters, they are just different. In Resident Evil Village, for instance, I found using Magnums and Shotguns to be more nicer to use with controllers but M/K more precise and consistent firing with the Assault Rifle (WMX) was better.

I just hope they don't screw it up, and they better add controller support this time around. They wanted to make it a NFT blockchain type of game where contributers received special benefits but huge public backlash compelled them to politely walk back on it (stuff like that seems to be hugely popular in Eastern Europe, I am into crypto personally but I think it's a stupid idea for video games, Paypal is quite sufficient). Sequels to games released over a decade ago are almost always a dice roll, and it doesn't matter what region its from, and the original S.T.A.L.K.E.R. has quite a cult following but it definitely wasn't perfectly optimized or coded. Minimalist to the extreme.

S.T.A.L.K.E.R 2, Elden Ring, Avowed, TOW 2 The former two I'm quite skeptical of, the latter 2 I have a good deal of confidence of.

@kanisatha you seem to posses some form of academic proficiency. Would you argue to the progressive assertion that U.S. military budget is largely bloated and not very effective? I mean the CIA, NSA, and FBI clearly posses some powerful surveillance programs, according to whistle blowers, and I'm unsure as how effective all these VPN's and Onion directories are at deterring them but military analysts don't seem very convincing for some reason.

So Pillars of Eternity without all the useless filler that slogs gameplay to grinding halt and sometimes feels more like an academic field study than a video game? Sign me up! I love Pillars 2 but man the game drags sometimes..

You'd be amazed what the determined can procure on a tight budget, as opposed to the U.S. congress who just kinda blow billions on the military budget without any kind of plan. Just keep printing those bills and tossing them around and it'll all be fine. Dolla dolla bill y'all. However though, the Russian government itself isn't nearly as strong as some would believe, corruption remains quite rampant and it's population is getting kind of fed up with its lack of concrete results. They see Stalin as a bad person in their history BUT. AT LEAST. HE GOT THINGS. DONE (How familiar!)

I know a guy who spent 40k on that Arnold Schwarzenegger mobile game. It's very rare I call someone out for personal decisions in life (I usually like to mind my own business and let people do whatever the f* they want) but I flat out told him he was an idiot.

Assassin, but I am biased to the extreme. Get sh*t done.

So Republicans were cooler when they gave free stuff out of pocket only to people who joined organizations that kill people. What are they now? No free stuff for everyone equally? I think I'd prefer less discrimination.

Does Gorth follow my every post? Everytime I post in a thread he immediately posts right after quoting another poster and adding his own stupid dorky insight, like an attempt at one upping or something.

Like The Brotherhood of Steel? I mean the faction reeks of "path of least resistance" pansies hiding behind ridiculous OP weapons and armor and blowing **** up. Also, never forget JFK

https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/videocard/ I don't see too many high powered GPU's on that list, I mean the closest one is the 3070 and it's still not on the top 10 so yeah, looks like the enthusiast class are the cave dwellers of the story.

I think you know full well that I do not align with the American Republican Party because of their love affair with Israel. Like a good communist, I stay over there (In Russia, KPRF, 1st sergeant tech com, sworn to protect you).

Here's some comic relief.

It is what it is, things are gonna get worse before they better so yeah, even hostesses should be proficient in some level of self defense and concealed carry I imagine.

This. If everyone's carrying, that'll keep the Rittenhouse's at bay. Stop being being a bunch of sally's and at least carry a concealed handgun. I admit I am quite shocked at him being acquitted on ALL counts, but where there's a crisis there's an opportunity, and should encourage everyone to not be afraid to use deadly force if you feel your rights are being violated by anyone

Whelp as long as you make a living, that's what counts! Meanwhile I'm rotting here in the U.S. as society is falling apart, good fun.

Eh, I just don't see much hope for either party tbh, at least alone. I generally agree with Dems on social issues but not on issues like gun control and excessive government meddling. So maybe that 3rd party I've been bringing up for *looks at watch* over 2 years now to form a reasonable coalition could actually get some things accomplished? Yet people still seem to have partisan sticks up their butts.

Yeah but the Democratic Party is that same thing, there's the real kicker. as members of a party that is now exhausted by its failures, cynical about its own ideology, authoritarian by reflex, controlled as a personality cult by a failing old man, and looking for new adventures to rejuvenate its fortunes Can that not also describe Biden and his cohorts? Both parties are f*d tbh

Same. I mean the first game basically mined Halycon to death so a whole new system would be best, especially if they can apply what they learned from the 1st game and expand on it.
