  1. Yep, which is why banding about insults on either is most comical. But oh well, people here. Fair enough. I have had my foot in the Codex door every little bit, and am just getting snowblind coming back over here because of the sentiment toward Feargus and Josh over there. Reality is bending and I'm having trouble separating the two. Yep, the Codex thread has a bunch of crap to skip over. Though I do like the part where they were going on about where different forums have their sacred cows, Codex has Avellone, SA has Sawyer, etc. He pays someone’s mortgage. Some people have the ability to look beyond their own circumstances. Hm, would wager such sympathy would be far too selective, but fair enough.
  2. Even if it is Paradox.. Finally got a Hunchback with an AC/20. Feels good to swat Commando's or Locusts with one shot.

  4. They do say in the splash screens that they do not encourage or endorse any of the behaviour in the game
  5. No, it seems like the response of someone who has dealt with dumb asses like Avellone in the real world, many times. I have zero tolerance for his type of person, they are nothing but problems waiting to happen. You seem to know a lot about Avellone for certain to carry on like a dog, heh. Also, people seriously believe that ranting on the Codex is going to damage Obsidian (though, why people care that much is also odd - not like Urquhart pays my mortgage) ? As someone mentioned earlier about grousing over beers, as everyone does, seems a lot like just the online version.
  6. https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2018/05/03/star-traders-frontiers-is-the-best-space-game-ive-played-in-ages/ Looks like an interesting game, maybe on sale. $15 is too expensive
  7. Derek Smart is near deranged, Avellone isn't near that yet.
  8. Seems like a good fanboy response. I like the repeated insults on Avellone
  9. 5 years for non compete? Wow, would be surprised if that could be enforced.
  10. Watching Arsenal continue to fail as they're going out to Atletico Madrid today
  11. It's basically 4chan but somehow even more racist and utterly convinced that the ability to play video games that are really old makes them an instant expert on any subject from literary theory to geopolitics. Eh, wouldn't say it's that bad, at least in the subforums. Either that or I'm just practiced to skip over the idiocy, there's decent posts there
  12. Eh it's fun to watch, what harm can come from it
  13. Well, it's updating via Galaxy, didn't see any downloader links at the time. Ok...it's just stuck at verifying files, so maybe it's in the middle of something right now.
  14. Eh, I doubt anyone is going to be losing their job as a result of Avellone's comments on the Codex of all places. I meant his comments might be reason for lost sales. We had already one person in this thread to cancel his pledge. I am wondering how many more people could do the same... Even 1000 people cancelling, means about 50000 USD to be paid back. And that is basically money for 1 person contracted for 1 year... Well, I also meant the sales. I don't think many care that much about Avellone, or if they do, care enough to abandon the game. People still buy games from studios where people have reported crunch or some other rough working conditions, after all. As 213374U said this is the best window to take a shot if that is the case, I just doubt it'll hit.
  15. Wonder how many micro transactions they'll work in
  16. I dunno, I think Step 1 should be to show up well armed.
  17. Eh, I doubt anyone is going to be losing their job as a result of Avellone's comments on the Codex of all places.
  18. Seems weird to wear the dress of a different culture to me, but then again, it's just fabric and not like it's part of some routine to ridicule Chinese. Would be curious to see how strongly Lam practices his own culture, as he rises to defend it. As always, Twitter is to blame for this.
  19. Was the better Ep 1 game. Though considering the action-adventure game it was alongside that's not really glowing.
  20. Eh, if it were one these skinheaded badass type cops I see around a lot these days I can see them going in. Always is some dude that buys into the kool-aid and thinks he's "the tip of the spear" or something along those lines But, definitely feel the SRO would have gone in if he had a partner with him. Doubt they'd have done much, and not because it's a pistol against a rifle, not sure why people mention that - the shooter wasn't wearing body armour and is carrying a somewhat less maneuverable weapon, but just rather due to the time.
  21. I think you are in a different conversation. No one even said anything about how many he could saved. He broke the protocol, he didn't do what he was trained to do, he should be punished. End of story. It is worth considering though, if you're going to use the body count as a cudgel towards him. Seeing how the punishment he could have faced was just administrative - as in getting canned (I'm not aware of any law he broke - and such a law would be pretty odd, mandating behaviour for just one profession and doing so for the general public is overreach), he ducked that by resigning as he's able to, so big deal. And wanting him to face execution for it is some stereotypical Internet hardman BS.
  22. Eh one friend out of 150 isn't that indicative. Could have 50 acquaintances but only one friend.

  24. Would be surprised they would run uniforms through that, and especially something like a SRO. Which seems like choice duty, for a cop. And in any case, military training fails, and a soldier is meant for violence far above a mere cop. Could be 17 dead, or 1, it's asinine to want the cop to be executed. Overemotional response. Wonder how many he could have saved, anyway, by the time he hears gunfire people are already dead. Academic, anyway.
