Funny you are one of the few people on these who will think and believe this is good news, its to be expected It's funny that you say "few people" when Trump just won. So the MAJORITY think like me. Majority of electoral collage. Popular vote will likely go to Clinton.
-
It's insane that this got so close. I read a bit about political split in the US but never imagined that you could rally half of the country behind Trump.

Anything will do as long as they don't pull another kotor .

Maybe slowly moving away from post-apocalypse? In Fallout 2 things were moving away from the bombs into a new wild west of sorts.
-
I seriously doubt taking Fallout in a different direction is an option. Big settings only change when sales fall into reboot territory.

Just in case you thought we live in a sane world: First Civilization 6 e-sports team is announced.

It seems that iOs graphics have spread to the cinematic division. And those pompous inspirational speeches are really starting to grate on my nerves.

Consider this then: Syrian war has empowered Russia. That Afghanistan-like quagmire never materialized and their intervention is seen as a big success. Atrocities might shock diplomats but average voter will find it convenient to disbelieve them. US giving up on Syria could at least limit Putin's gains.
-
It takes two to tango. US could have given up on Syria when it became obvious that there was no public support for intervention. Instead it embarrassed itself with 'red lines' and now looks willing to fight Assad to the last rebel it can arm. Syria has suffered enough. It's much better for US to admit defeat today than to spin out the inevitable at a ever rising cost of lives.
-
Bruce there is nothing new regarding Syria in the links you provide. The sad state of that country is in large part due to the failure of US policy. I doubt anybody expected much restrain of Russia or Assad.

Apparently Shadow Warrior 2 is out today:

Just before final boss fight in undying.

That's not just PC port problems. After GTA this will be a hard sell.

Well, as a series that started on the PC this is a bit of a slap in face. I mean, how hard is it to unlock framerates? The guy who fixed Dark Souls PC release did it in one night. That 'fix' broke quite a few other things. Maximum jump distance being by far the worse. And I really don't get the 60fps obsession while vomit inducing field of view goes unnoticed.

In DMC4 it sure is. A game that expects you to constantly hold down 3 separate buttons is best played without wasting fingers on holding controller in the air. And don't even get me started on 'hold down' lag that many commands experience thanks to limited buttons on controllers.

The Weird, Random, and Interesting things that Fit Nowhere Else Thread

Yep. Could have been worse. -
Over-regulation is mostly a red herring in the off-shoring argument. It can be a factor (mostly in heavily polluting industries that no American really wants to live near), but for most businesses it pales in comparison to the fact that Americans are expensive to employ. And no amount of tax reduction and deregulation is going to make American labor rates comparable to those in Bangladesh. That's true for pretty much every job in developed countries today. Why some positions are off-shored while others are not is a more interesting discussion.

Disregard education, acquire business contacts.

Game allows saving almost anytime outside of combat so you can simply use a save manager mod. Many console players would reboot at the last second to avoid save overwrite and progress loss. How far you can get without grinding is another matter.
-
You don't feel the turns in policy of other nations the way we do for US. Whatever changes happen in economy, energy or foreign policy will affect the entire world. For other domestic issues I care little. If the results were at least a bit in doubt I'm sure I'd take a lot more interest.

Have you even killed a single boss? Aside from the tutorial one.
-
I can believe that but why do people need to make sense of 9/11 when we know why it happened? There is no need to make sense of certain events because the reason is documented and can be referenced by basically anyone Denial. There is a quasi-religious belief that we have no greater evil than the US government. In that case it cannot possibly be a victim of forces beyond its control. (with possible exception of Jews, mossad and Israel if you ask in the right circles)
-
well there were some hidden stashes here and there, but I liked it very much But that's hardly the same as "loot every other step" :> Let's make it one in three then. A skeleton, 5-20 gold and a random junk item became the lazy copy/paste reward for killing 5 monsters. And you were expected to collect it all just to pay for absurdly priced skill trainers. That monster placement also resulted in level 18 drowners palling around with level 3 bandits.
-
Strongly disagree, world in Gothic 1 make so much more sense than Skyrim or Oblivion Was it any less of wildlife extermination game than later PB titles? That and tripping over minor loot every other step didn't help Gothic believability.

Dont we get news about clean fusion every second day for like 50 years now? It's all research reactors. It's unlikely we will live long enough to see an actual power plant.
