Journalism and sexism in the games industry
I like how you expertly avoid giving anything resembling an answer to my question. I mean, I'm trying to have a discussion here, but the sheer amount of bad faith arguments and condescending bull**** is making it really hard to engage with the problem in any way, shape, or form. Oh this is amusing from you. Good to see people realizing how full of it Bruce is at last, heh. Silly that people focus on that of all things, his choice of clothing.

What are you playing now?
There's a lot to do in WoD, the garrison minigame is kind of fun, for now as I level up my NPC minions. Now I am called Commander and no longer some sociopahthic elite mook that kills people because others say so, bwaha. Nice to see they've added exploration bonuses, as rare mobs all over the place, epic weapons that you can find on the side of the road and some events as well. Shame the bonus objectives are "Kill N of X and J of Y" though.

Journalism and sexism in the games industry
Always interesting to see what level is operated at in this kind of thing. Amusing that people who aren't in his office would tell him that, really is none of their business. I assume his management is ok with that in his day to day work and the women present are too busy working or are not weak enough to be assaulted by a tacky shirt, else he would not have been wearing it. But naturally, some one is always offended somewhere so that caught up with it. He already got bullied into apologizing though I suppose he didn't grovel enough for some, skimming reactions to it around places. Wasn't even aware GG was involved in this really, mostly came across this as an amusing bit of "feminists" being "outraged" on Twitter and other places you see useless slacktivists like Bruce et al operating.

Find it funny that they say women will be put off entering STEM due to that shirt. Brutal coursework, exams and the work itself being hard won't faze them but some dude in an obnoxious shirt will. I guess they also expect to never work with jerks either. Have to wonder how weak of will does the Outrage machine take women for.

What you did today
Took out the serious winter coat today, kind of overkill for the weather usually but was a godsend last winter. At least there's sun out, I might just leave the office and go stand in it for a couple of minutes.

Hm, for some reason I thought of flashbangs as a defense, I suppose those would be effective. Though a bit excessive for personal defense.

Hey, damn it, that's my trick.

What are you playing now?
I've been getting about 10-12k for every quest for awhile now. Once I hit 70, it dropped in the Outlands, but once I went to Northrend it was back to the big xp rewards. It's been moving pretty fast. Yup, I blitzed through with my DK, hunter and rogue with heirlooms. But after all that, thinking of schlepping through Outland, Northrend and then Cataclysm just made me worn out. I still need to level professions a bit, maybe the garrison system will help me with that.

What are you playing now?
Playing a bit of WoW again, expansion is going live. The launch is a bit rough though. Blew $60 on another 90 (and another Paladin mind you), to get my eighth max level character, hah - bit of a whim as I got tired thinking of the path from 50 onward (not even newer Cata content, there).

Okay, so "serious" is just when they agree with you, then.

Well, what do you class as 'serious', before that goalpost shifts inexplicably later on ?

Well, is your money in the end, but seems you are overpaying for what you get if you just do it half way. One good thing about sales, wasting $9.99 isn't all that bad (as opposed to the $50 or so I wasted on GW2, argh).

Siege and naval battles are the worst two aspects of M&B, also never fight a siege against vaegir marksmen. Yeah, it's suicide trying to fight them. I like sieging Nords and Khergits, the former have no archers so it's lots of whittling and the latter you can just zerg as they suck at infantry fighting.

Sure. But if the series keeps demonstrating that it can't hold his interest long enough to finish the game off, it seems he should aim to save cash and do what he does partly anyway (Youtube) or try to pay an percentage in line with the amount he will play. Or he could just finish the games.

Well, if you get bored of the game, seems like you should stop bothering and watch it all on Youtube. Or wait for a deep sale.
