Shieeeet, I think I developed a little bit of a crush on you now Gorth. Without a doubt the biggest reason me and the people I know want out of the EU, Yes the EU has problems! Yes we need to tackle them! But are you really so blind that you think going out will solve the problems? It is the worst option... Give it a few years and Britain will be gone from the international politics and to some extent economics. Going out is not really a option of you want to stay relevant as a country.Are you really unable to see what the EU has done for you? That right there should already give u red flags. So why should Britain wanting and leaving the EU have the conclusion that they will be phase out of international politics and economics? Why did the britains want the Brexit? I honestly don't know, it just shows a lack of general education amongst the public (which is a government failure). People apparently don't understand what they are doing. I really don't see any advantage of Brexit that could possibly weigh up to the disadvantages. Most people understood perfectly what they were doing with Brexit. Unrestricted movement of labor hurt working class and the poor economically so they voted out.

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.

Only if it proves capable of significant self-reform.

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.

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.

It's a classic insult to masculinity meant to fuel xenophobia. The 'dirty savages are ravaging our women' has been an effective rallying cry at least since the colonial times.

Discussion was about migration, demographic and economic expectations. You can't keep growing your economy and keep the same retirement age if you don't raise enough kids. Europe (and most of developed world) does not, hence the need for migrants/refugees. One alternative would be to give up on economy and let it shrink naturally. But as long as most people are interested in improving their lot that's a no-go.

We can do that when people will accept that their lives are to become worse not better with time. Until then the pressure for economic growth will continue.

This has never been about good feels. Europe is heading for a demographic decline so you need migrants to fill in the vacancies.

How do you see the Northern soldiers then? Your average yankee had a pretty similar lot in life and few of them started fighting to overturn slavery.

So... I'm supposed to find it admirable that people would be willing to fight and die for one of the most disgusting practices of human history even though they had no personal interest in doing so? Because I'm sensing some mixed signals here. Average southerner would be concerned with protecting their social order rather than slavery itself.And while initially they went willingly eventually conscription was necessary. It's still a social order that doesn't benefit them. A good part of my family were confederates (those that came pre-famine) and they fought for the rights of the upper class to **** on them. Wrap it up in the gaudy costumes of "honor" and "freedom" if you will, but it's still fighting against your own interests. But it did benefit them. Even as poor native whites they were placed higher then blacks/migrants/catholics/hispanics in the social ladder. Once Northerners are allowed to reorder society there is no telling were they may end up. It could well be the very bottom.

That 'crack' makes no change to binaries. That means DRM is emulated around not removed. It may not make much difference but the potential for missed triggers is still there. And there is no telling if that method will keep working on other Denuvo games.

It wasn't a crack - it was a bypass*, a bypass that is no longer functioning. However, Denuvo, the protection scheme that protects Doom and some other games that have been "unpiratable" over the past 6 months or so, was apparently just fully cracked. *A bypass is different from a crack, in that, essentially, it simply fools the DRM into thinking everything is as it should be...whereas a crack removes or disables the DRM in its entirety. Bypasses are not considered to be real cracks, and often have issues - refer to the Titan Quest piracy debacle, where some of the DRM protections were bypassed, but some were (unknowingly to the pirates) not, leading to a game that appeared to have performance issues and was super buggy, which then lead to it getting bad early reviews and press from pirates...but in reality, it was just part of the DRM scheme trying to do its job. The new Rise of Tomb Raider bypass is not a true crack either. For now it's the only newer Denuvo game that's easily piratable.

UK sales charts registered both at the bottom of top 30. And after a single week they were gone. IIRC Divinity barely broke 1 million units on PC around launch. 900k on consoles would be huge. So where did you get yours?
