What are you playing right now?
Nearly 50 hours into Witcher 3 and still absolutely loving...what a game I am doing the Botchling\Blood Baron quest and its really cool, I still love exploring and fighting random beast plus the crafting and alchemy is good fun There is now NO doubt IMO that CDPR cant consider themselves one of the finest development companies in the world

I dont think the game pushed the agenda enough....but I admit my view is probably extreme and I dont expect much popular support

WoT Presidential Elections
There is a wacky conspiracy theory floating out there that this is a ploy by Trump to get Hillary elected (sabotage the GOP then drop out or nuke his own campaign once he secures the Republican bid). I'm assuming it would be in exchange for a cushy cabinet position or some sort of favors for his businesses? Its not true but it is a real conspiracy theory, people tend to embellish events and circumstances Yes Trump does know the Clintons personally, they have been to fund raising events and Hilary did attend his wedding, thats where the photo is from But that doesnt mean there aren't logical reasons for them to be on the opposite of the political spectrum

US Election 2016
Obviously Volo, she is going to win the election. But Volo its not nice to call people idiots just because they support a different political view than you, its also untrue and libelous I would support and vote Clinton if I was an US citizen...does this make me an idiot ?

That looks amazing, first day purchase for sure I enjoyed Mafia 2 but the city felt a little empty at times and lacked enough good side quests

Gfted1 can I count on your vote if there was a WoT presidential election amongst members...or do I need to bribe you first to ensure your support ?

US Election 2016
Results weren't that good for Clinton actually, as New York is her home state, but at end of the day it don't matter because it has been clear for sometime that Sanders can't win the nomination except in most strangest circumstances. Nah, its a good victory for Clinton. The correct word to describe it is resounding ...it may not seem like a big lead she won over Sanders but in political terms its considered good ? http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2016/04/19/new_york_primary_results_clinton_sanders_trump_who_won.html

WoT Presidential Elections
I'm impressed with myself, I think I may just be getting the hang of how this Internet forum humor works ....or rather when people are joking Look there is no doubt Trump will beat you in a game of chess but its highly unlikely he will beat me But Meshugger you strike me as a global anarchist, you seem to want chaos...I sometimes think you believe if the established institutions that help maintain order and structure in the world( like the UN, IMF, EU, ICC, NATO, global currency etc. ) were destroyed rising up from the ashes of a broken world would be something better than what we have ? Do you want a new global world?

WoT Presidential Elections
Not so much.. since the world is now so intertwined that should one of the G8 countries truely fail, all of them will. I'm sure TN is joking because the entire worlds economy would collapse if the USA was somehow destroyed ..not that Trump could actually destroy the US but he could potentially take the USA back to a time similar to periods under the Bush era where the USA was seen by many people in a very bad light

Baldur's Gate: Siege of Dragonspear RELEASED
Fair enough, but I would never buy a game like Hatred because the developers tried to say " they were making a game that was not politically correct and was just going to be fun and cool " . So they attacked so called SJW pressure on developers and wanted to create something " unique " but they really just tried to manipulate people to buy the game who are annoyed with perceived SJW interference ...yet the game was just boring and repetitive from what I read

if you manage to get a few thousand o' your equal deluded friends to create a bs review campaign, and it appears that the lowest common denominator is buying into your nonsense, then for a game Gromnir were already planning to buy, we will likely once again forgo our traditional six month (or more) wait for any and all new games purchases as a way to express our rejection. purchase dollars is the only Real measure, and is amusing to us that hp already invalidated his expressed opinion by expressing your approval with dollars. so, knock yourself out, but am gonna chalk this up to predictable obdurate narcism more than a genuine attempt to get Gromnir to buy games we otherwise would not. " equal deluded friends to create a bs review campaign " .... For me the moment people start judging any game on perceived " SJW interference " instead of what matters which should be factors like the actual game-play, design or narrative I become very inclined to financially support it ( and of course Romance in any RPG is always a plus but its not really a primary reason to actually buy a game )

Very happy with the Democratic results in NY Well done Hilary Clinton and her campaign, I have been waiting for the Sanders movement to end its winning streak around the actual votes, not delegates

WoT Presidential Elections
QFT Guys this is type of post that reassures me about the future of the USA ...I understand a degree of criticism and negativity but this constant " Obama bashing " and "Clinton is a Crook " sentiment gets too much at times Especially when it just doesn't reflect the reality of the USA

US Election 2016
Haha!! Sure, it will be amusing no doubt. The only possible potential issue with this that I can think of is it might become hard (my free time may become very limited around the holidays for example) for the loser to keep up, depending on how prolific the winning poster is. Perhaps we can set up minimum guidelines. ie: ""like" and make one comment of support and/or affirmation of the other's brilliance/righteousness for at each of their posts covering said time period. If the winner is especially prolific the loser will only be expected to do this for a minimum average of 2 posts per day". Note: I'm no fan of Gromnir, he's the only person I have on ignore in any forum anywhere, largely because of the insane ogrespeak. I will however have no problems with him drawing something up if he wishes so long as it's not in ogrespeak, and actually in sane and clearly legible English. I doubt he will want to do that, I'm just throwing this out there since his name came up. Vals...you cant be serious ...you cant seriously think Trump will beat Clinton..... he has NO chance, if I use some hyperbole its like a clash of different cultures and civilizations, its very exciting and unique but also relevant and resonates and influences the whole world on different levels

The REAL state of the USA : Fact vs Fiction
...Right. Understandable retort considering what the media portrays. The shock of being treated better there than in most places in Europe took a while for me to accept. Wasn't intended as voicing skepticism, more like... sure, they'll be genuinely friendly, nice and polite to you as long as you look and behave like someone belonging to their in-group. But I'm also pretty sure they'll treat you with considerably more... let's say, distance, if you're not that keen on the whole God business, or - heavens forbid - happen to be non-white, non-straight, and visibly a foreigner. Based on my travels, i would say that whites (and especially nordics) have the weakest ingroup/outgroup-mentality and thus, relatively speaking, the most welcoming kind for all the oddballs of the world. I doubt there's any place in the world though where being an outsider to an ingroup is naturally or culturally celebrated. But its a good thing you Nordics are so welcoming, this is something to be seen in a very positive way

US Election 2016
The sooner we can focus and support Hilary as the only Democrat candidate the better I dont mind the Republicans tearing themselves apart with these personal attacks and vitriol against each other but I dont like to see the Democrats doing it....yes I know it sounds naive as Democratic candidates aren't these perfect people but I still feel politics doesnt have to be so.....vituperative, like the Republican candidacy race has been

Volo I prefer to formulate my own opinion on games, I have extremely unusual gaming standards Besides its probably fair to say there is a level of bias towards this game that makes most reviews for me unrealistic but the good news is if I say " Volo this is a good game " then you know that game will be good and you must buy it

European Refugee Crisis : Part 2
Its probably better to not see this as idiocy but rather Sweden's attempts to make all reasonable efforts to integrate the refugees I have to admire there endeavors, I'm not sure I would be so supportive if I was Swedish ...but I'm not Swedish so I'm sure the local citizens see it differently? It is idiocy Bruce. Suicidal idiocy. Like most other western nations, the Swedish government is selling out it's own people. Sweden just happens to arguably be doing it faster than most. Probably the only nation further along the path of self destruction is Germany. I would prefer to get the opinion of people who are Swedish to see if they think there government is selling out there country, I'll be surprised if someone like Rostere thinks that ? Germany is fine Vals, I keep trying to explain its not possible for the refugees arriving in the EU to lead to the Islamification of the EU...that would be like saying " the Mexican drug cartels are going end up dominating the USA " I actually personally know a little more than a half dozen Swedes (I have friends and family in most western European nations), and have had contact with a great many in the past. The only Swedes I've spoken with in the last ~5 years that don't have issues with the immigration problem, are a couple of employees at Paradox (and people I consider pure morons for multiple reasons (this issue wasn't even one of the secondary ones)). Note, every single one of them a commie to some degree, but even many of the commies over there have seen some of the light. I even know a guy over there who was assaulted by some imported Arabs, and had some bones broken courtesy of them (they even got away with it).. A few of these folks that I've known a long time, were once upon a decade or so ago pro-immigrant. Regardless of all of this, one does not need to actually be in the fighting ring to see the bludgeoning, and make a good guess as to who's winning. The immigrant issue in many European nations is indeed nothing short of suicidal. And if the current rules in that ring aren't abandoned, it's pretty clear who is going to go down at the end of the fight. Okay ..dont leave me hanging? Who is going to be going down at the end of the fight in your opinion?
