The US Election 2016, Part VIII
Doesn't mean it's not true though. Of course the Democrats have been lifting every stone looking for dirt same as Trump.

Playing Rise of the Tomb Raider. We were going to drink every time you have to press 'action' in a cutscene to not die. Bet on the first instance. Within 20 seconds. I predict running out of beer. Sounds like that's Admiral Hacket is doing the tutorial like ME3.

The US Election 2016, Part VIII
So let me see if I understand this correctly. The Republicans are essentially afraid that they will lose the next election, the one for the house of representatives because the Trump Campaign is so divisive and such bad PR for anyone calling themselves Republicans.

Donald was boasting about being a grabass, which is not the same as 'sex', now is it. It's not a subtle difference at all.

In order for that comparison to work you also have to believe that Beyonce should be ashamed of shaking her ass. And while we are at it also that shaking your ass is the same as having your **** groped by Donald Trump.

I kinda sortof enjoyed the reboot. The in combat QTE last time around you had to do a sort of minigame where you got two circles into each other to carry out a melee special. Obviously that is the most retarded thing ever. Is that still in ?.

Has anyone played Rise of the Tomb Raider ?. There is some suggestion that it might actually have recaptured the best of the exploration and puzzles of the first games. I don't want to jump in based on reviews though, been burned before.

Wasteland 3?
Am I getting this right, are they paying 40% to a crowd funding service. That's just plain stupid, unless there is something sinister going on, in which case that's just plain sinister.

The general firearms thread
How about the 88 mm flak, if we are talking about the quintessential nazi gun. I mean they put one on the Tiger tank.

I signed up for the gwent beta. Never would have predicted that. I usually hate fancy card games.

It's pretty and the weapons are good, could do with a bit more enemies on screen at the same time for that true DOOM feel though. Not sure I like all the busywork of upgrades and rune challenges though, I would prefer being given an actual thing each time instead of 1/5 of what I need to buy the next tier. The automap is in 3d, needlessly confusing and zoomed too far in every time you access it, just make it 2d and overlay levels with different colours. I want to know where I am when I press it not what the next bend of the tunnel looks like.

The US Election 2016, Part VII
Why what were you expecting that would have made it less boring ? The presidential debates are not suppose to be about theatre and entertaining people , they are suppose to be about discussing the issues. They did debate things like the birther controversy, the ISIS strategy, aspects of the economy, tax returns and other topics People keep saying " the debate was boring " so I am interested in what people would like from the agenda ? Trump freaking out ?, that would have been entertaining.

Borrow as much and you can and buy realestate just after the housing bubble burst.

I dislike level dependent loot generalted by random tables in general. If loot has level restrictions I don't want more than three tiers or thereabouts. A good sign is if you can find an item early on that you like and wind up using for most of the game. Really developers should place most loot and only randomly generate the inconsequential stuff. So often loot drops make you feel like one of the sad old ladies playing the one armed bandits at the casino. They win just often enough to keep them playing, but the sensation is never enough to keep them away for very long. A lot of science went into feeding them just the right gameplay loop to condition their dopamine receptors to listen for the reward sound, that *ping* of a purple or gold drop, insert three oranges or whatever pays out on a slot machine. Even if you win big, you are still conditioned to keep going, that's how the house wins every time. In an MMO they make your purple drop level dependent and switly lose its value as you earn more XP. This was mostly my experience of Skyrim and Witcher 3 as well, but at least in those games you could get better gear by crafting or hunting down wicher gear and more or less escape from the grind.
