UK Muslims targeted for speaking out about terror
If the killing is part of their "honor-system", then probably, yeah. Happened a few times in Germany as well. Turkish father / brother killing the daughter / sister because she had sex or is dating someone they don't like, etc.

What are you playing now?
It shows up ridiculous handholding due to the needs of the story, which is the case in this game. You can allow a certain degree of nonlinearity in a game like metro. Just because it is "on rails" doesn't mean you need to be forced to go a strictly pre-defined path. Even in subways you have crossroads, after all.

Metro is another game that gets slapped by the Stanley parable. You have no freedom none whatsoever in that game. You are strictly following a line all the time and it annoys the hell out of me. The Metro game could have been really good, but instead they decided to remake the book into a damn railway shooter game. With their own story they could have done so much more in the setting. Really disappointing.

You could try a language that is most spoken in your area beside english. In my opinion, everyone should try to learn at least a second language, doesn't matter if you are never going to visit that country. It can be simply for education or for lolz- best of course if there are people in your local area who speak that language. Me personally, I would also love to get better in spanish, even though there is like nobody speaking spanish in germany.

What are you playing now?
Bought and played it as well yesterday and I do regred the 10€ now a bit, though. The game itself is pretty good, but since I've already played the mod a long time ago, the "full game" offered nothing new to me. It was a little longer and all that, but the point of the game is already delivered with the free mod, so I don't really see a good reason to pay the full 10€ on a little more now. But beside this, every game dev / story guy should play the Stanley Parable, IMO. It shows perfectly what is wrong with most games. For example, right after I "finished" it, I jumped into Call of Juarez: Bound in Blood and yeah... It's one of those games that dictate everything you have to do. All the time it tells you where to walk, what to use, what to shoot at, and so on... Super annoying. People, stop creating such games, coz they are boring shait.

But in FNV you can decide if you want crosshair visible or not. As far as I know, it doesn't even matter if you use the iron sight function or not- it doesn't make you aim better, it's just for the feeling.

RANDOM VIDEO GAME NEWS
Well, after looking at Skyrim I can at least say for sure that Fallout 4 will be a bad Fallout game again. It will have a big game world, nice graphics, and lots of shallow writing.

No money, no New Vegas, etcetera etcetera you know the song. So what? It's not like Bethesda "saved" Fallout, as many people claim it to be. If it wouldn't have been Bethesda, then someone else. Who knows, maybe it would have been better / more true to the original, maybe not, etc.

Indeed, Fallout 3 is a really ****ty Fallout game and pretty mediocre here and there, but it made a truckton of money... sadly.

Deus Ex is the only one I can think of right now, and IMO this is only the case because they didn't changed the core of the game for once.

What are you playing now?
I stopped playing the first AC game after the second town. It was so repeating, I just couldn't take it any longer. Then I played the last one with that native american dude on the cover, but instead I had to control some English guy and everything was so extremely linear that I - once again - just couldn't take it any longer and stopped playing this as well.

I tend to believe that the only way to achieve such changes is to bring wealth to these locations. As long as everyone is poor, it simply won't work out at all.
