I dont know what is worse, this callous infringement or the massive NZ KFC chicken smuggling syndicate that was exposed ? ( @Zoraptor I didnt notice you acknowledging this moral decay in your country ? )

I have never watched Red Dwarf before, I must sometime because I enjoy British comedy like Fawlty Towers and Monty Python

I have to concur, nothing excites me as much as discounts on games I like

God of War for PC is available, I know this is something all of us can get excited about

I had never heard of this game before so I looked it up on GOG and it looks very promising. I like Pirate games, Risen was very entertaining

Nah, Im sure you frequent redtube so Im confident you will be fine

You know Melkie I am one of those people who if someone says " dont look now but guess who walked in " I always immediately turn around to look Anyway I went to that unknown tfgamessite and I was impressed by what I read and saw, very interesting

I completed Bards Tale Trilogy, game 1, after 70 hours. It was great fun and my first real CRPG I have ever played. I had to get use to the various gaming mechanics like prudent combat strategies, I learnt when to defend and when to use items, and being able to teleport quickly back to Skara Brae for healing( walking all the time can be tiresome ). And I can see how BT1 really was the precursor to future hard puzzles and interesting dungeon level design and how to progress to deeper levels This game gets a well deserved 65\100 on the globally endorsed " BruceVC game rating system " and I look forward to playing BT2&3

I havent played PoE yet so I cant comment, I just know its easy to end Bioware Romance arcs in about 30 seconds. Because you just say " no " in the dialogue options and your party members dont re-initiate the Romance unless you do, as far as I remember, but the point being its not intrusive

Melkie you know Romance arcs in RPG are the same as all components in RPG, they not suppose to be same as RL or the things we do in RL? You use your imagination and RP the various outcomes and developments but its never going to be like Gone with the Wind and other real Romance stories Also I am always interested in the criticism that they intrusive and distracting, can you give examples in any game how optional Romance arcs are truly intrusive? Because I generally always explore Romance arcs, if I like the Romance options, in all games and if I think of Bioware games where you have straight and LGBT options it was easy to shutdown the unwanted attention from the gay wizard in my party because the first time he flirted with me I just said something like " I would prefer to be friends " and he never flirted with me again So my question to you and others is " how can the inclusion of optional Romance arcs really be a problem when they so easy to avoid or not to participate in " ?

https://fareedzakaria.com/columns/2022/1/14/politics-is-trumping-economics-it-might-end-badly Here is an excellent read how politics, or rather ideology, is ostensibly becoming more important than the economic reality in many countries like China, Turkey and Chile

I thought one of your NY resolutions was to not call me a fascist? You not doing very well

No you must watch it to the end, the moralizing is part of the narrative and it doesnt detract from the whole series . Very unexpected ending and very worthwhile You not the only one to complain about the " preaching " but its part of the story

Yes but lets not get distracted by people sitting in detention centres, we not talking about the Oz immigration system as much as the fact this is suppose to be about the virus and the overall Oz pandemic reality and the risk of an unvaccinated person playing at the tennis You guys are 90% double vaccinated by your latest statistics, the chance of Novak spreading the virus and or creating a variant is very remote. Dont you think banning celebrities should be made on the actual medical risk and not be about politics and pandering to angry and frustrated citizens in any country? https://www.health.gov.au/resources/publications/covid-19-vaccine-rollout-update-16-january-2022

Sunday is one of my best days due to various reasons that include English Breakfast time, today Im cooking eggs, potatoes rosti, bacon, mutton sausage and toast

You allowed to change your opinion, you can feel the treatment Novak experienced by the Oz authorities was selective and unfair? And he may not be deported, final appeal today ? https://news.yahoo.com/novak-djokovic-news-live-tennis-081441508.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall

I think school children will be fine missing out on this one, dont get me wrong it looks amazing but Im confident the school will find other books to help educate those young minds

@Gorth and @Chairchucker You guys must have heard the shameful news, the Oz immigration minister has cancelled Djokovic's visa....he cant play now I think this was a political decision to pander to the anti-Novak sentiment on the streets in Australia, its not how a decision like this should have been made

I have been considering for years investing in VR, Im just not sure the technology is advanced enough? Wormie imagine VR Romance arcs with Isabella in DA2

Does this mean we are going to entice you into voting? Because no vote...no free things from government

https://www.outa.co.za/blog/newsroom-1/post/court-declares-aarto-unconstitutional-and-invalid-1113 Great news, our high court has declared the AARTO system of penalizing drivers with a demerit system of 12 points unconstitutional. I always believe human rights lawyers get somethings right

But the obvious difference and benefit of Odyssey is this is an active experience and all the sights are living, for example you cant fight the minotaur in RL...you know you cant Melkie

@melkathi Whatever you decide dont play that mode, its boring and pointless. If you cant kill civilians and enemies whats the point of playing any Ubisoft game. Play the game like its suppose to be played

You mean Andrew Yang? What did he say that he was right about, I found him to be well meaning but I dont agree with much of what he suggests

It works, I dont remember it being elegant but it works and you also get to use ranged weapons like energy weapons
