Well that sounds scummy as ****. Anyone else doing something similar?

The man truly is a legend.

Completely reading into things obviously, nothing to back it up, but what if he is planning his own Kickstarter project? Yeah, he very much tiptoed around that question. Could it be the fabled IE games spiritual successor take 3 (4?)? More than likely it will be his high school RPG.

MCA is leaving to compete on Masterchef, if victorious he will demand to be called Master Chef Avellone. MCA barely mentions his work on Pillars and quickly moves on, while he talks at length, and, dare I say, lovingly, about Wasteland 2 and TToN. Hmm... I noticed that as well. I'll admit to not liking PoE as much as I hoped, but it seems odd.

It's a 12-issue Lovecraftian horror series. Hard to give a complete synopsis right now, but the first issue was very good looking.

Da joos are trying to cuck the white man? ctrl+f "jews" in the thread on /pol/.... 41 hits among 690 posts. Meh, that's kinda weak actually. Did you ever think that the nazis were shills trying to derail every discussion with cuckolding and Jews?

So I picked up Providence and was quite impressed. Alan Moore may be a crazy old bastard, but the man can write quite well.

Didn't she just get into a spat with Anne Rice over leaving bad reviews on books she didn't read? Seems like a strange person to work against harassment with. As to the reddit stuff, I'll believe they're sincere when SRS gets nuked.

I've been getting drunk as well, but I'm afraid I have a better taste in music.

Chris Avellone will expose himself to cosmic radiation and gain the ability of plasticity and elongation. He will use these powers to fight crime under the name "Stretch Goal".

Chris Avellone has resolved to learn kung fu to track down the criminal that killed his partner.

Honestly, I'd prefer FF and X-Men stuff to have happened before the rest of the fictional universe. FF in the 60's and X-Men late 60's to the 90's.

This seems to be going slower than their other projects, not sure why that is. I'll probably end up backing when I get paid this Friday.

MCA will leave videogames to travel through time and space with a strange man in a blue box.

In my opinion, it seems a bit insulting that instead of creating an interesting character of whatever ethnicity/race(black most of the time) they insist on changing a white character into a black character. Like putting on blackface and saying that's good enough. I notice you guys have conveniently ignored my solution to this whole Magneto issue. Why can't he be a black Jewish character? You do get black Jewish people...yes I don't think any black Jews were kept in concentration camps but its a comic...we do allow artistic licence ? Because your solution doesn't fix the perceived problem (which is that Magneto, tied to WWII concentration camps is at least in his 80s) that led to the suggestion to move the character to the 50s/60s and anchored by the US Civil Rights movement. However, as I indicated, this only swaps an 80 year old Magneto for a 70 Year old Magneto, so the issue of age and being tied to a specific point in time is still at play. There are only a handful of WWII era characters around in the Marvel U, and all of them have backstory explanations for why they aren't 80 to 90 in their physicality (Captain America - frozen in ice, Spitfire - vampire, Human Torch - Android, Winter Soldier - Kept in stasis, Namor & Namora - Atlantean Physiology, GA Vision - alien from another dimension, the remainder of The Twelve - kept in stasis, Wolverine - can't age due to regeneration, Mystique - aging irrelevant due to powers, etc). There are ways to deal with this issue that doesn't require changing Magneto into a different character, though. Edit: wrote "Magento" at least once. Totally different character. Characters age in the marvel universe at a rate of 1 year every 3 years real time. Magneto is in his 50s. Doesn't terribly look like the 1980s in the Marvel U right now. I didn't say time passes at that rate, just that characters age at that rate. Then Magneto is an 80 year old with the body of a 50 year old. It doesn't alter the problem that WWII makes him 80 (if you consider it a problem.) Wasn't he de-aged in some arc?

He left to write comic books.

It's definitely part of it. Did anyone else notice that most indie devs against belong to a certain clique?

Chris is going to replace Ben Affleck as Batman.

Shady, I want to buy your rock. I initially read one r as a c and was surprised.

As opposed to you saying "I agree with all of his [Obama's] decisions" or "I think this was a good decision"? Originally you asked this: "If you think Obama's foreign policy decisions have been wrong and have made people think less of the USA can you give 3 examples of things you would have done differently" And then you asked for: "give me 3 things he did that have now made the global community dislike the USA even more." Maybe if you were actually clear about what you were asking for we wouldn't have to go thru this song and dance of continual re-explanation every time a debate begins. I'm beginning to think you do this deliberately to give yourself an out later to claim, "Oh you obviously misunderstood me." or "No this is what I said." And you still haven't provided a single link to back up any of your assertions about how he is or might be viewed globally. So much for your claim that you like to debate from facts. I'm going to condense the rest of my reply as much as possible because this is simply a pointless exercise. No, if you want to debate "might have beens" fine let's open a new thread or better still let's open an astral link to the spirit of Nostradamus and ask him. I thought we were talking specifically about how world viewed the decisions that were actually made and not speculating about how they might view decisions that weren't made. It most certainly is the same thing. Try telling the Afghan civilians in Ghazi Khan that it isn't. Oh wait ..... And now you move the goal posts. I'm sorry but I didn't get the memo that the ME wasn't a part of the global community any longer. You want to dismiss the Middle East entirely because Muslim opinions generally getting worse runs counter to your argument re: world view of Obama. So you find some dodge to dismiss the area out of hand. Maybe you should have qualified "The USA has really done well under Obama to make its global image better" to read "The USA has really done well under Obama to make its global image better but only in the areas Bruce deems important". Is there anyone else you want to exclude? How about Russia? I will remind you again that Obama made the Middle East a keystone of his foreign policy and in that regard he has failed. Attempting to Ignore or dismiss that won't change the facts Bruce. You might as well rename Obama's ME policy: Operation Charlie Foxtrot. From the PEW Center, Global Opinion of Obama Foreign policy in Muslim countries dropped from 25% favorable in 2009 to 15% in 2012 (no 2008 figures available). Opinion ratings in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Pakistan, dropped from 22%, 15%, 51% and 19% in 2008 to 10%, 12%, 41% and 14% in 2014 respectively. http://www.pewglobal.org/2012/06/13/global-opinion-of-obama-slips-international-policies-faulted/ And no not all of the opinions dropped but I never claimed that they did. It was unpopular in a lot of places not just Pakistan. I happen to agree it was the right decision but the entire point is not what you and I think personally but how the global community viewed that decision. Pakistan was severely pissed off and the Abbottabad commission called it an "act of war". Other countries, both Muslim and non-Muslim alike were incensed over the US violation of Pakistani territory. The very thing that the US accused Putin of doing in Ukraine/Crimea if you remember (albeit on a much smaller scale). Others felt that capturing Bin Laden was preferable to killing him. And still others praised Obama's tough action. And others claimed that it was all a hoax. I simply stated that Israel has threatened to take unilateral action - I never advocated bombing Iran. You can stop attempting to put words in my mouth any time now. That's beneath you. I'm tired of this BS. B T F O T F O

Damn, hope he does something soon.

Yeah, I was upset with Bronn getting smacked too.

I get what you're saying and understand the logic behind it, I just think it's a bad idea that doesn't really address representation of (insert whatever here) in media. Granted I've been disillusioned with capes for a while as is, and find myself gravitating towards comics that aren't capes.

In my opinion, it seems a bit insulting that instead of creating an interesting character of whatever ethnicity/race(black most of the time) they insist on changing a white character into a black character. Like putting on blackface and saying that's good enough.
