  1. Plus, there aren't any publishers to tell them that they can't release any more updates.
  2. To be fair, they were hipsters trying to be funny. I wasn't offended or off put, myself. I mean, c'mon...it IS San Francisco.
  3. Overheard this exchange on BART: "SF is gonna go totally gay for this tonight." "So you think that San Francisco is going to break out into homosex orgies?" Didn't hear the rest. Promptly put on my headphones and turned up the Pet Shop Boys.
  4. Totally different flags. Union Civil War Flag Current USA Flag
  5. http://forums.obsidian.net/topic/70616-angry-joe-loved-pillars-of-eternity/?p=1653987 26 page thread. The review was on page 18.
  6. Ann Coulter @AnnCoulter OBAMA ENDS CHARLESTON SERVICE WITH SONG WRITTEN BY A SLAVE TRADER. Shouldn't we ban "Amazing Grace," along with the Confederate flag? Class.
  7. Shiny. Some of the released screenshots and environment art look real nice.

    Interesting lame(?) factoid: The U.S. Postal Inspection Service is the oldest national/federal law enforcement agency --founded by Ben Franklin in 1772, and were the first "Special Agents." ... R.I.P. Darryl Hamilton. A good hitter. He got me a clutch, walk off single in extra innings one time when playing Tony LaRussa Baseball on the Genesis heads up against my brother. http://espn.go.com/mlb/story/_/id/13130327/former-major-leaguer-darryl-hamilton-killed-murder-suicide-police-say
  9. Just PoE and XCOM2 for me. I'm going to pass on Total Warhammer.

    I'm a degenerate gambler. But I never bet on myself or against my team or anything where there would be a conflict with my rooting interest. Though there's no direct evidence linking Rose on betting against his team i.e. the 1919 Black Sox...that he was hundreds of thousands in debt --with the Mob, is not an insignificant factoid.

    Egads! Pete Rose is a liar and bet on baseball! http://espn.go.com/espn/otl/story/_/id/13114874/notebook-obtained-lines-shows-pete-rose-bet-baseball-player-1986 New evidence surfaces.
  12. Not that I recall, but that doesn't rule it out. Sensuki did that to Osvir, if I recall. So there's precedent.
  13. Wow, that makes him even more of jerk. Hey Gifted1, is it my imagination or did you chide Sensuki at one point during beta for making private messages public? Somehow, I have this image of Cersei Lannister making the Walk of Shame with Sensuki's mug face superimposed.
  14. Wait. I'm confused. So this isn't Vault Dweller's review? A Long Time Ago in a Galaxy Far, Far Away… A long time ago Black Isle Studios - Interplay's role-playing division responsible for several truly great RPGs - was disbanded and all hope was lost. Fortunately, like an Ochre Jelly Bean it split into two lesser beans: the artistic incarnation, which became known as Troika Games, and the sequel-addicted incarnation, which kept on sucking the publisher’s, uh, tit and went on to make some of the finest sequels known to men. Their first offering was Knights of the Old Republic 2, a Planescape-lite RPG that explored the Star Wars universe, conjuring depth and philosophy out of very thin Star Wars air. The next 10 years was a bumpy ride, riddled with cancellations, flawed attempts to jump on the overcrowded action games' bandwagon, ‘will work for food’ deals, and occasional greatness that spoke of the untapped potential waiting to be unleashed. If only Obsidian could make an RPG without those meddling publishers restricting their creativity and telling them what to do. If only… http://www.rpgcodex.net/content.php?id=9952
  15. Aaron Sorkin elegantly sums up my views on the Confederate Flag. Sports Night. Season One --Episode 11. "The Six Southern Gentlemen of Tennessee" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7GvBOJ1budU Or for the specific episode spoiler climax: https://youtu.be/7GvBOJ1budU?t=945
  16. Drunken Draymond is a man of the people. He gets out of his parade ride and causes chaos on the street He puts Marshawn Lynch in a headlock He steals a flag He takes a bottle of champagne from a fan and pours it all out on the guy and his buddy http://www.cbssports.com/nba/eye-on-basketball/25220648/draymond-green-is-having-another-championship-parade-in-saginaw-mi He picks up multiple toddlers and lifts them high in the air He later gets called out by Andre Iguodala as that one "Buzzed Uncle" at the family BBQ.
  17. This topic would be so ironic if it was from the Codex.
  18. OK. I said I was gonna stop after three shots. Took a fourth, and then a fifth, because why not?? I love this team. I love that they broke the rules. Jump shooting teams can't with the chip. You can't win by shooting threes. You can't play with tempo and be elite offensively and defensively. Well this team did it. They played at the fastest pace, scored the most points, and were by far, the best defensive team in the league. They were tops in FG% and 3pt. FG%. The were tops in Opp. FG%. They had more assists than any team since the Showtime Lakers of Magic and Kareem. They can play big and they can roll on fools playing small. They value character more than talent all things being equal. This team did Don Nelson proud. This has been a long, dry, and absurdly bad spell and I submit Exhibit A courtesy of Bill Simmons of Grantland: http://grantland.com/features/how-annoy-fan-base-60-easy-steps/ When I first read that piece, I wept. That was the most moving, truthful, and most cathartic thing I've ever read as a self-admitted long suffering die hard fan of the Golden State Warriors. So I thank Bill Simmons for writing it. I thank Joe Lacob for rescuing this team from the dark ages. Stephen Curry, David Lee, Andre Iguodala, Draymond Green, Mo Buckets, Andris Biedrins, Baron Davis, Stack Jack, Corey No Passies Maggette, Earl Boykins, Mookie Blaylock, Marc Unstoppably Baby Jackson, Keith Jennings, Run TMC, Rod Higgins, Tom Tolbert, Sarunas Marciulionis, Manute Bol, Sleepy Floyd, Jason Caffey, Cliff Robinson, Tom Gugliotta, Latrell Sprewell, Jeremy LIn, Adonal Foyle, Jason Richardson, Marco Belinelli, Tom Abdenour, Keith Smart, Gregg Popovich, Garry St. Jean, Donnie Nelson, Larry Smith, Otis Smith, Ralph Sampson, Jim Barnett, Gregg Papa, Harrison Barnes, Andrew Bogut, Speedy Claxton, Matt Barnes, and everyone, they're all ingrained. Mostly bad, terrible, tankable years. But this makes it all worth it. Also Tom Tolbert. He's their Radio color guy.
  19. No one in their right minds, let alone anyone here will back The Donald.
