I need to replay that. Haven't tried the remastered version.

I don't count Jack as he was the pen and paper character used to give fans a feeling of World of Darkness. And he wasn't really himself in the game. Smiling Jack isn't the fatherly type. The taxi driver was an easter egg. LaCroix did not impress me. Nines was the arch-typical Brujha Anarch. I mostly remember Nines because of the Malkavian dialogue with him. OK, the most memorable thing about most characters is the Malkavian dialogue. When you say jump, I say WHERE IS THE CLIFF!!! The Voermann twins were the character with the most interesting dialogue based on themselves and not the player. Beckett felt underused. Of course the whole game felt as if Santa Monica was fleshed out and then they started running out of funds. Which isn't too far from the truth I guess. I'll agree with <string of numbers>U about VV.

It would be nice if the male npcs were as interesting this time round as the female ones.

Do you even know what they are doing "different" or is this just the usual internet rant of "Oh, my freedom is being taken from me by the evil left" ?

And some internet troll is trying to use the excitement for Bloodlines 2 to get clicks by throwing around SJW buzzwords and accusing Paradox of censorship. Yay! Well, if the hateful gnomes of the net are already rallying against the game, it must be good.

Brian is passionate about writing and trying to create immersive worlds. Dead State had a lot of issues, but Brian's writing was not one of them.

Sure, but nowhere near as much as the Sabbat, I'm just going for what I think is most likely. First Bloodline game was rather ironic in this regard. Smiling Jack "mentors" you in the tutorial, while in the pen and paper he was known for embracing in camarilla cities and moving on to cause chaos.

The Anarchs work with random embraces as well. Even if it is just to spite the older vamps.

Steam just says March 2020. GMG Also says 31st.

Someone posted a link earlier about Epic snooping around your personal steam data.

Tatooine is wrong, he's named after a dog after all. So, Jar-Jar Jones? R2 Jones? Rancor Jones? I kinda like this one. Practice Droid Jones? Oh my god in the third game Jones teams up with Darth Connery Vader to go on an adventure-comedy romp against the Empire. I'm digging this! Indeed he is named after a dog, but if you want to adapt this classic dialogue, the dog name must be the same as a geographical/political entity: Professor Sternhart: Indiana? Sounds like the name of one of your states, or of possibly a cat. Sophia Hapgood: Actually, it was the name of a dog. Indiana Jones: Sophia!

Tatooine Jones and the Fate of Alderaan

Games should entertain you. So I am all for quitting if you don't have fun.

May have to replay the game to remember some things.

Talking about strong women, two days ago was the one year anniversary of Anna Campbell's death. A young woman with the Bristol Hunt Sabs who in 2017 went to Syria to help fight against the IS. She died in 2018 to Turkish bombs

I don't remember the final boss fight in Amalur

I never understood Thorton's dislike for SIE. In the end she is one of the few people you can truly count on in Alpha Protocol.

The question is, can you change password, it being your email? Hotels had an issue with AirBnB. Someone made accounts for most hotels in Athens, couldn't verify the emails of course. But, as the hotel email addresses now have accounts tied to them, when AirBnB tried to recruit hotels to offer their rooms on the platform, they couldn't make accounts. Would have been easy enough if they could just change passwords, but to do that they need to prove they are the person who made the account and provide that person's info. So nobody has access to those accounts. And customer support doesn't fix it because they only fix things for superhosts

I can't believe how long it took me to realise what you lot are talking about

I think I got more disillusioned since I went into the tourism industry, which in general for service providers is a long series of accepting crap. If you book through one of the large websites for example, and get a non refundable rate for an extra discount, and pay the website, the site will not actually give your money to the hotel. The hotel only gets the cash on your day of arrival. So the site gives itself interest free loans from all hotels worldwide. Putting up and accepting that kind of thing daily, makes it harder to truly care when other companies pull stunts.

My main issue is with pre-order customers. They didn't crowdfund, they prepurchased with the expectation to get it at launch. As was pointed out by marelooke as well.

@marelooke The car analogy doesn't work though. Because they aren't giving you something different. They are telling you that your car will be delivered a year late. To which your claim is that you need the car to get to work now. Then you get your money back and buy a car somewhere else. It sucks. But you can get your money. Consumer protection will have a hard time forcing them to release early on other platforms and invalidating the contract with Epic.

And with crowdfunding delivery dates are in constant limbo. I expect at best you could get a refund, but as that is already offered, there is no legal action to take. You can't sue someone to get something they have freely offered. "If you offer me a full refund I'll sue you for a full refund!" is not the basis for legal action. For legal actions you must prove damage. If you weren't damaged financially by a transaction as you are offered a refund, what damages are you arguing? And people are not currently complaining about the delay or comparative access to the game. They are arguing about not getting Steam or GOG keys,which within two hours of the announcement were then offered (with the delay). I can't argue I am not getting something, at least not in a legal frame, when a clear frame of when I'll get exactly that has been given. If that time frame is not to my liking I can demand a refund. And that has freely been offered. But as outrageous choices go, this is one of the most harmless ones I have seen. We are all old enough to have witnessed EA's planned DRM for Spore (go online daily, if you fail to go online two days in a row permanently lose access to the game), SecuROM, and so much more. I think the EPIC store exclusive thing is bad. I think it is a crap move to tell people that if they want their platform of choice they have to wait a year. I think for pre-orders that is especially problematic, because while crowdfunding is in theory less of a purchase but funding, pre-orders are purchases with an implied promise of release day access. I do feel people should adapt their outrage as the situation changes, and be honest about what they are outraged about.

I don't see an issue with legality. They promised Steam and GOG keys. They have made the change to the announcement that they will provide Steam and GOG keys with a delay. They have offered full refunds to anyone who is not OK with it. So I am not seeing what deal they aren't honoring as far as the letter of the law goes.
