  1. You don't think the mission statment of Nazism and Socialism matter, I mean they are ideologies as much as political systems. Lots of reasons to put in place programmes to deal with unimployment and economic stagnation. I suppose facism is socialism for those obsessing about the strong nation state and the cult of personality. Enough reason to have two different words to describe them. That is... one is not the other, unless you insist on deconstruction. The further one goes down that road the less things make sense.
  2. It would feel wrong somehow.
  3. By that logic Ronald Reagan would be a socialist. (military spending) I'm sure Reagan would call FDR one, FDR is in reality a democrat responding to a crisis (the first great depression). The devil is in the details.
  4. Nazis and Socialists ?
  5. Germany was sorely in need of those socialist policies too, but that doesn't make the Nazis socialists. We have those two different words for a reason. The goal was to bring the economy on a war footing within 4 years. Socialist theory doesn't normally count on conquered countries paying the bill. Military spending is not usually seen as a socialist policy, although of course it contains tangible benifits for german arms manufacture, which was largely the point.
  6. Borderlands doesn't have propper multiplayer, only co-op. Not even a PVP arena. So it gets old pretty fast. I like the visuals though.
  7. What I usually wind up doing is making two min maxed characters, one for combat, the other for skills and two balanced ones.
  8. I keep restarting because I'm not completely happy with my party. I do this in virtually every RPG but this is the third time and after having almost completed the first two towns. I know, I am not well.
  9. What happens if a guy bleeds out. Kinda curious because it almost happened to me. Got lucky and was able to loot a trauma kit. Do you get to create another one. At lv 1 ?
  10. At least get them to spread out so they don't stand ready to shoot eachother in the backs of their heads.
  11. Also, am i missing something or is there no cooperation between skills and attributes. Some of the Attribute descriptions suggest it but it doesn't specify anywhere if there are attribute bonuses for each skill rank.
  12. As far as I was able to tell I could only get a maximum of 10 starting AP if I min maxed for AP. Versus 2 extra skill points and 8 AP with 10 intellingence. Hardly seems worth it. I don't know when bonus Attributes start to kick in but that would be a reason to incresase an attribute just shy of a bonus AP.
  13. One thing I've notice is that attributes confer only tiny bonuses, so wouldn't you be better off giving all your chars 10 intelligence and getting 2 extra skill points per level since they deliver so much more.
  14. I don't think anyone is really in doubt that the Nazis were, well, Nazis, rather than socialists. Socialistst don't have a monopoly on goverment spending and populist policies you know. The end goal was rearmament and conquest not making everyone happy.
  15. I don't care about betas whatsoever. When the final build of PoE is out I can compare them.
  16. Is that one of those krill eating sharks.
  17. Is anyone playing the full version yet. ?/10
  18. I've just decided that I don't care about this anymore. Bound to happen sooner or later I suppose.
  19. . No great achievement in overtaking them, they are built for endurance not speed after all.
  20. Alien Isolation is out in 3 weeks. I want.
  21. It's not a country as much as a housing coop for the fabulously wealthy.
  22. Umm I've been to Poland too and I think you are being a bit grim for effect there mate.
  23. The moral of the story, don't listen to the idiot talking heads. Pundits, bloggers, others who profit from being in the spotlight some way or another. Look at the big picture.
  24. I doubt those 1 im 25 have a million bucks in their account they can take out and spend anytime.
  25. It still isn't that odd id the real estate is super expensive, and it is.
