All I can personally say is that I didn't pay any extra fees for the original game when I got it. I also got the signed copy so my box probably had to pass through the US originally. Additionally, I don't remember anyone on the forums complaining about paying extra customs fees, but my memory may be faulty on that. I also assume that, at this point, unless Obsidian is certain the same company(ies?) will be used for international deliveries, how international shipping will be handled isn't set in stone yet, so Obsidian might not have a definite answer to give yet. I'm a volunteer mod by the way. Edit: Forgot about Paradox. Paradox is the publisher, and they're based in Sweden so there shouldn't be any reason for you to pay extra fees if you are within the EU.

Democracy is of course a populist concept but plenty of stuff is not populist. Often the truth is not too populist, for instance. "Hey, we promise to spend extra money to change public schools for the better but you'll only know for sure that this is a good idea 10 to 20 years down the line. Vote for me." "Hey we're gonna divert a sizeable portion of the taxes you pay to fight a vague environmental threat that won't affect you much but will definitely threaten the lives of your grandchildren or at least the lives of someone else's billions of grandchildren. Vote for me." "Hey, I promise I will work hard to make your lives better, but my policies won't change diddly squat in the next 4 years. However my policies should improve your life marginally 6 to 8 years from now. In 10 years though is when things start to get really better unless, of course, you elect someone who has a different idea about governing, in the mean time. Vote for me."

For some insane reason giving away free money is not populist in the US. Bootstraps demagoguery and whatnot. Outside the US giving away money is totally populist, though. Keeping your country safe from foreigners is also populist, however. It's not an either/or situation.

Is that a picture of a printout of a facebook comic?

I don´t know, but wouldn't a significant percentage of that be a bunch of people punching themselves in the face?

Valsuelm specifically said things were safer and freer 100 years ago, not that things should be better they are now. That improvement is currently required would brook no argument from anyone, I'd say. To say that things are worse now than before regarding safety and freedom is patently silly, be it 30, 50, 70 or 100 years ago. Relevant:

Don't think they're exactly no-go, but they're hostile to the police, and have become a lot more hostile thanks to Obama's demagoguery and lies. Europe didn't have them though until mass migration. So the causes are different but the result is the same, ethnic-cultural enclaves hostile to the society at large. That is not true.

Tiny Trump is a great meme although I still haven't figured out how they photoshop the whole body whilst keeping the original hand size.

Note that I'm Portuguese, and I've been living in Sweden for less than a year.

Strangers will soon be speaking to each other on buses and all hell will break loose. Also, people will stop eating surströmming.

As always there will always be some fringe nutters, mostly on the internet, complaining about the immigrants, drug crimes, murders and rapes. Most people are more or less in favour of receiving some refugees, it's more of a question how many in total, depending on the country's ability to withstand the influx. and how many when compared to the rest of Europe. Refugees aren't a new thing in Sweden. Iranians, Lebanese came here in the late 70s/early 80s, Yugoslavians in the early 90s, middle easterners in more recent years. For instance, there are a few Iranians among my colleagues, I usually have lunch that a Bosnian owned place, and there are kebab restaurants all over Sweden. When I lived here back in 1998, there was some focus in the news about drug crime and juvenile delinquency among immigrants from the Balkans. Nowadays no one talks about them. That's not to say that aren't some problems with criminality here in Sweden. There's some ghettoization going on, quite a few of the immigrants clearly aren't interested in integrating or learning the local culture, and crime statistics are going to skew immigrant. Most crimes come from the poorest sectors of society, stop the presses. Also, I've been to the poorest, most dangerous parts of Gothenburg and, as someone familiar with criminality and slums in Lisbon, Swedes don't know how good they have it. As usual in first world countries, most people have no idea how safe their lives really are. Spoiler: Really, really safe. The younger kids, however, are still going to school, are still integrating and fusing with the local youth culture. "Swedish" will mean less and less what it meant 50 or 60 years ago, but what else is new? Culture changes and has always changed and it isn't all that important if the purity of the culture is maintained, especially when cultural purity doesn't exist.

That was in 2015. The system never did collapse, although huge delays became the norm in a bunch of state departments. In the the mean time, the numbers of asylum seekers coming to Sweden have already diminished significantly. https://www.migrationsverket.se/English/About-the-Migration-Agency/Facts-and-statistics-/Statistics.html According to the migration service in Sweden 2015 was the peak when over 160000 refugees requested asylum. That's double the 2014 number. In 2016 the number fell to 30000. Unless something new happens, in 2017 the number of refugees should continue to decrease.

I can go on: "Negão" is only used in Brazilian Portuguese, and it usually refers to a big black man. Sometimes this has a "positive" connotation, if you get my drift. The suffix "ão" is often used to denote increased size in the same away that "inho" is used for smaller things. They are the main way to get augmentative and diminutive forms in Portuguese. It's safe to assume that in that case, the name came from the fact that the dog is big and black, though.

Incidentally "Negro" is the polite form used for black man in Portuguese. "Preto" is the impolite form that should only be used as a form of address if you are friendly enough with the person you are talking to. Note, however, that both words literally just mean the color black. The word "preto" is more commonly used in day to day life for the color, though. "Negro" is usually used in more formal contexts, although they are effectively interchangeable.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, SECTION 1. Termination of the Environmental Protection Agency. The Environmental Protection Agency shall terminate on December 31, 2018. US congressmen really work hard, and put thought into the things they do.

Miller appears to be a totally nice guy. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/king-stephen-miller-latest-liar-bigot-team-trump-article-1.2971639

http://www.vox.com/policy-and-politics/2017/1/31/14439908/steve-bannon-worldview-visa-ban Nationalism and traditionalism seem to be basic underpinnings of his philosophy. Also, is that specific point in Enoch's post the only thing you have issue with? It's just that the rest of the other factual things read like a deliberate undermining American democracy. Finally, the idea that media has a chip on its shoulder regarding Trump is kind of a joke. Trump was already widely considered a bumbling fool 10 years ago, 20 years ago, perhaps even 30 years ago. It's not like he sprang up into prominence unsullied and unvarnished just the other day, and now the media are doing an hatchet job on the guy. He was always a raging dumpster fire. I've been reading late 80s and early 90s marvel comics recently and, once in a while I come upon derisive quips referring to Donald Trump. He was kind of a joke.

This is the trailer thread not the synopsis thread.

I think it'll be a long period but shorter than 4 years. I'm willing to bet that Trump screws up enough politically that he's either forced to abdicate or is impeached and removed from power in disgrace because he pushed the entire establishment in a bad way. Unless the Democrats win back the house and the senate in a unprecedented landslide in 2018, there is no way in hell Trump gets impeached.

I believe Obsidian went for realism in their armor design in PoE so the over the top game armor design was avoided. I think they will probably go the same route for the sequel.
