Should the UK leave the EU?
Even beforehand there were a few articles about the class difference regarding EU vote: http://www.spectator.co.uk/2016/06/britains-great-divide/ https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2016/jun/17/britain-working-class-revolt-eu-referendum

Should the UK leave the EU?
Vote breakdown showed that leave had the strongest support among the poor and uneducated. Leave or stay, they will be economically hurt by globalization.

EU Members : Your view on the UK leaving
We will miss their EU budget contribution. Can't say the same of their political vision for the future.

How on Earth was DoW2 a MOBA-wannabe? Cut down macro mechanics, huge hero focus, no 1v1 mode. I could go on but the trend was clear from the get go. I really hope for something much different for DoW3.

If we get a RTS not a MOBA-wannabe that would be great. But judging by latest Company of Heroes I'm not too hopeful.

The 'Sidian Tyranny thread
Robbing everyone blind is pretty much the standard way of playing open world RPGs already. How can you move beyond selfishness or power-abuse in video-game evil is still beyond me.

Which boss? Also, always try to get human help. It's a lot more useful than the stupid ai who will let itself get killed easily. Psh, even the AI help - nevermind other players - can be abused so badly in Souls games if you work the boss right to change its targeting between you and the AI constantly - basically renders a boss useless. Only time I ever used summoning was in DS1 when it was necessary to unlock some particular items. In Bloodborne, you actually have to *pay* to summon others, whether AI or players, which I can't help but pompously approve of. :D Although I still think the price is too low... the problem is that i cant find any human players to summon. im talking about that knight guy who comes out of the ground and pulls out a half buried stone sword. i tried sorceries, hexes and pyromancies on him but except for sorceries the others dont do any damage (cant use miracles, no faith). That dose sounds like fume knight The easiest way is to kill him is with a crossbow. First stage is somewhat manageable but the second has so few openings it's best to kite him to death. Can take up to 30 minutes tho.

Wut, I have never seen this area and I thought I've explored all of DS2. It's a optional area in Ivory King DLC. Learning this area by hearth has been taken to another level.

That group was the first one to crack 2nd generation of denuvo DRM so it may be crucial for the future of piracy. Especially since Just Cause 3 and Rise of Tomb Rider use even newer version and remain uncracked so far.

Just when you thought piracy discussion was over: Pirates stop cracking games to measure sales impact. I can't tell if they're serious or just need a excuse to leave denuvo games be.

If only we could get premade characters back in western RPGs at all. The whole 'you could be anyone' approach quickly turned into 'it doesn't matter'. That's the most successful SC2 player of the last 3-4 years. If he's guilty Korean SC2 may collapse entirely.

It's more of a Japanese take on western action-RPG. Interesting oddity but sadly quite flawed.

The Rape of Europe
In Poland actually. 300 - 400.000 estimated, hard working, making a better future for them and their families, making no problem for fellow Slavs. Actually more went to Russia. And even in Poland there is a clear sentiment that men are not welcomed.

Paris Climate Talks
http://www.theguardian.com/environment/2015/dec/12/james-hansen-climate-change-paris-talks-fraud He is advocating stronger changes and enforceability. He certainly doesn't support the idea that climate change is a hoax. And citing the guardian is a bit ironic since Hansen has been called a 'new denier' just recently for support of nuclear power.

Paris Climate Talks
Pushing your own agendas is a great way to weaken any agreement. For now EU greentech solutions cannot move past intermittency limitation and they can hardly cry foul if China or India chooses to develop their own. China is certainly pushing a expansion of it's nuclear industry but by now almost all technology is based on French/American/Japanese designs. Russia may still be a major player in nuclear R&D but finding clients for reactors is becoming politically problematic.

Paris Climate Talks
They're modernizing by building one coal power plant after another. They're modernizing by expanding all energy production, dirty and clean. And that's to be expected from a developing country. Overall China's direction is for now pretty reasonable considering their economic potential and low per-capita emissions. The difference this time is that every big player signed so it will be much harder to pull a Canada. Of course some countries may attempt a pull-out but there is now a better chance than even that they will be stigmatized for doing so. The targets and pledges system is indeed nonsensical but you can't move on to something better until consensus for action is established.
