  1. And naturally you'll survive, right ?
  2. https://variety.com/2018/gaming/news/unreal-tournament-not-in-development-1203080017/ UT not being worked on. Probably to no one's surprise
  3. I can't help but wonder if this is a case of lost context with respect to this song since most people are familiar with it from countless covers and not the original version in context of the movie it was in, Neptune's Daughter (not a Christmas movie, but it was a hit, as was the song). The movie has two couples singing the song, switching the parts between the men and women, and its clear for both couples the concern is what people will say, not in their not wanting to stay and canoodle. Even more ironic is that "Baby It's Cold Outside" was a substitute song according to Esther Williams. The Hayes office wouldn't approve "(I'd Like to Get You on a) Slow Boat to China" (supposedly they interpreted the "get" in a particular way). When "Baby It's Cold Outside" was nominated for an Oscar, other songwriters protested as Frank Loesser had created the song for him and his wife to sing at parties, but as it'd never been professionally performed, the MPAAS allowed its nomination to continue. That's the issue, more or less. I never took the song to have the vibe people upset about it claim it has, always saw it as some elaborate dance. But oh well, this is Canada, where they had banned Money for Nothing due to one line
  4. Seems like overly sweeping.
  5. What a surprise a cop would act such a way.
  6. Just watch the cutscenes on Youtube, you don't get much story in game, it's compelling character and world design, with a story outline the same way Castlevania or Half-Life is, there's actually not too much narrative because it's a game and you play it. It works if you let your gameplay journey be the story. I've played the game before, was more wondering if I was missing something as everyone in a paroxysm of rage post the D:I announcement said it had a complex storyline and was deep. Felt it was a shade better than D3, minus D3's villains - minus Diablo's - idiocy. Then again, same people seriously state D3 has no dark elements in its presentation, so perhaps I am wasting time.
  7. I liked one outlandish prediction I had heard about Brexit - where NI leaves to join Ireland and Scotland secedes. Essentially ending the UK
  8. https://www.cbc.ca/news/entertainment/canadian-radio-stations-baby-it-s-cold-outside-1.4931867 Canadian stations no longer playing 'Baby It's Cold Outside'. This is good though, less Christmas music is always a good thing. Hm...better start a campaign to get Rush off the airwaves.
  9. well she is technically man, so not sure about that part Legally not technically, no ?
  10. But-but... why would you go through K2 and not use the restoration mod? I understand the quality of some of the stuff added by mods is uneven (M4-78), but TSLRCM is pretty much a must. Otherwise, from the moment you step on Malachor, it's placeholder-quality content. You doing some sort of penance? Installed it out of boredom and due to a friend talking about Kreia, I remembered there was a restoration mod about half way through the game so decided to just wade on. Maybe will try it with the mod in another run. Only played this through twice in all these years, anyway.
  11. https://www.theatlantic.com/amp/article/577222 Abolishing the Senate ?
  12. Into KOTOR 2's jarring as hell ending. Probably should have gone with the restoration mod, I suppose. Oh well, will force myself to grind through that. My build still sucks, Nihilus wrecked me - all my shields and boosts were wiped by the cutscene - having him shot to death by Canderous was funny though.
  13. Or that's just what you want to think. Still have to replay D2 to see this amazing story people are telling me it had. Found it about the same level of interesting as D3's, at least from memory.
  14. Is it supposed to ? I thought it was to exploit addiction to those substances.
  15. Appropriately crap music.
  16. Even after all these years, I never learned the proper use of most of those Force powers. It's why even when I played as a super good Lightside character, I still spammed Force lightning. In my defense I have never read the manual, maybe that'll help explain things. Game is way more buggy than the last time I played, have had at least 10 instances that force me to kill the .exe
  17. Kotor 2. Still don't know what I am doing.
  18. On a mashup kick
  19. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-46397644 Russia will undoubtedly send 15 year old infiltrators to wait a year or so.
  20. Do they charge you for additional convention experiences once there ?
  21. Good on Bethesda
  22. I dunno, it's fun watching this from the outside https://www.pcgamer.com/inxile-is-remastering-the-original-wasteland/ Remastering is en vogue.
