Heh. I feel old. Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired for the first time on tv 20 years ago today. Hollywood Reporter - Buffy at 20

which one? I think I was able to talk out from most crisis I didn't want to fight it (btw I just got into Bloom but I want to return to clear out that bad canibals) Sounds like he's talking the Endless Gate tomb.. Technically you can bypass those combats, but it makes the final "boss" of that section harder if you do end up sliding into the combat again. But you can still deal with him via non-combat routes if you hit the right dialogue. Also, remember to check things and pick up his merecaster before you enter the gate...

For that random msn article... Since the Azure Window in Malta collapsed into the sea yesterday, I expect we'll have a batch of these types of articles going around for a few days: Natural Landmarks that have been destroyed over the years -

Hide is your friend with that one. It would just be nice to be able to hide to avoid ending up in those darn crisis points at times.

Apparently there's a street artist going around putting up these...

I have to say, in the pen and paper version, if you were playing runners who were sliiiightly professional, our GM always encouraged us to use non-lethal methods to disable security and the like on missions unless the mission directly called for it. Otherwise, you'd get a much bigger reaction out of Corporate Security, local Police and the like if you started dropping bodies all over the place. It was very much a "the guys chasing you are a lot more likely to allocate more resources to catching/punishing/killing your ass if you happen to be bloody minded idiots rather than sneaky thieves."

Saw Crysis 2 in the Origin Vault so thought I'd give it a try. Haven't played any serious shooter since Far Cry 4.

I think it's a fine line to walk. When you're sat at a table playing the pen and paper (or hypothetically speaking a character in that universe) it's something that's fairly easy to keep in mind and part of the whole feel and atmosphere. When you're playing a computer game, you don't get the full effect of that, and you have a lot of in-grained habits from playing other computer games where the junk is the junk is the junk. Plus, to a certain point, you don't necessarily get all of that aspect pushed at you from a computer gamers point of view in-game, so unless you know the world previously it's not going to trip your mental switches to really keep an eye on? When your first dozen oddities are all "junk - sell" stuff, a lot of people shut down on checking the rest because they'll be focusing on the other things that have already shown themselves to be potentially relevant/important to the game. I know I kept most of the oddities I found for ages through the game thinking they might potentially be useful or involved in something else rather than simply flogging them off. But even then I didn't click to the aspect of being able to use them on their own and getting boosts until I was halfway through the Bloom.
