Gorgon

I seem to have gotten over the hump regarding difficulty. Parry is kinda pointless except for 1v1 with non monster bosses. Not that many of those around. Dagger throw lv2, another wasted talent. Too expensive to maintain a steady supply. Just finished chapter 2 but it seems like I missed a lot of content around the fort and was cut off by the main quest line advancing. Overall I think it's getting better after the prologue. Button mashing is very much the way to go with quen to reduce and cause damage, doesn't matter what kind of battle it is, just left button attack. Gets even easier after you unlock adrenaline.

I'm not seeing any quotes from Chinese officials. The joke would be funnier if it were true.

Hey tarna, Gfted1 directed me here, really sorry ti hear about your diagnosis, kick cancer's ass! (Sarah AKA Calliope AKA Pirotess and however many other user names) x I rememeber you... As do I. Greetings all around internet persons.

From memory, they test this on prospective pilots and say 10% of the population are more susceptible than others and never pass first selection.

Happens to me as well, although it's very rare. It seems to be related to the speed with which the screen is panning and how much of the POW is panning at the same time. Quick is fine, sluggish, and if the whole POW is doing it at the same time. That's like hitting the brown note.

I just wanted to add, I hop you beat it. Crazier things have happened.

Man that sounds dire. Maybe you should make a bucket list just in case.

wOW that really is a s.hit newspaper.

Don't think I've ever had full adrenaline.

You go to fight in the blood wars. It would be a step up from walking around with plot driven amnesia for god knows how many years.

Do you think there is will to do something drastic about education and housing to try and get rid of these housing estate ghettos. There's no money, but I guess money could be found if you wanted it enough.

I'd like to know what the alternative is to strafing until swallow has healed you is. Particularly if there are 4 or 5 opponents and you don't have resources like bombs or traps.

The only thing that seems to work is chain hitting intercepted with signs, try and kill one and then roll out of there so you don't get mobbed. I spent a long time running around in circles waiting for my health to regen enough for me to have another go at my pursuers. Not very entertaining.

They are opportunists who are starting to figure out that the opportunity is lost. It might continue a day or two more on the strength of the international news attention, but these global stories have amazingly short half-lifes, as media attention starts to dwindle, so will the rioting.

He is all kinds of awesome.

I don't care if a game has a bad inventory system or not, that's really beneath noticing when it comes to total impression to me. I stopped playing as well though. It lacked... something, I don't know what, and it was too hard even on normal. Also I didn't relish the idea of waiting until the game was near over until I had most of the combat moves. I don't want to be a lv. 1. anything again.

well, it immediately raises the question of why they lied. as you suggested merely raising or brandishing a weapon could have been cause enough, so it seems less likely that that was what happened. you can count on the police involved to be acutely aware of the rules of engagement involving deadly force, and if they felt compelled to to lie that makes it likely that the shooting was unjustified.

but the cops said he did

So, it looks like the police shooting was unjustified, at least their stories don't ad up with the ballistics report. Doesn't excuse anything, but it does suggest why the first protest would end in violence.

He's gotta eat too.

Not going to happen, but it's fun to say it might on TV.

Well there was the industrial revolution, caused quite a bit of upheaval around the world, and then Thatcher.

The Danish police crowd control tactics consists of never allowing a demonstration to face a line of baton equipped police head on. Instead they get right up in the faces of the few in the front line of the hostile protesters who are agitating and willing to fight using police vans. They don't arrest anyone initially but try and create momentum that will break the enemy lines. It turns out the 'blitzkrieg' approach is surprisingly effective.

Just itching to make this about integration eh...

Who beat her up, the cops or the looters.
