Yeah, I actually enjoyed Starfield. The setting and story were more engaging for me than Skyrim or Fallout 4. I played through it 1 and a half times. It's far from perfect. The scale and procedural generated stuff is problematic. But I'd argue that a lot of people went in with unrealistic expectations and were surprised when they weren't met. It's still just a video game. It also sold extremely well, so all this talk about it being a flop is overstated. Bethesda is nowhere near being in trouble as a developer. Heck, it sounds like the Fallout TV show managed to even turn their biggest recent flop, Fallout 76, into a modest success.

Nah, it's a quarter life 'cause multiplication. Trust me.

The Outer Worlds seems to have done pretty well for itself. It surpassed expectations. It will get a sequel. It was well-reviewed. I understand that Avowed has higher sales expectations, but I doubt the expectation is Skyrim. I was just making a joke, since Fallout 3 was always referred to as Skyrim with guns. Heck, Starfield didn't hit Skyrim levels, and that includes tons of modding stuff. It seems like an unrealistic expectation. I just hope it sells well and tells a great story. It's hard to judge that pre-release. The Outer Worlds certainly didn't have a ton of buzz before release, but it came out and surprised people.

Have you read up on the Crusades? Religious fervor and weapons don't exactly have a great history. This guy will be in charge of the biggest military in the world.

Avowed is Skyrim with muskets. Honestly I'm not worried. It will probably share a lot with Outer Worlds. Art style, writing, etc. But we spend too much time trying to put things in boxes.

We bought a new TV, so I was looking for a fun action movie to break it in with. We tried Infinite with Mark Wahlberg. It looked great on our TV, but it was really bad. We got about 20 minutes in before giving up. We ended up watching Chernobyl on HBO Max. Much better.

David Gaider probably had a long term plan, but I doubt that exists anymore.

Hah, like anyone in his cabinet will make 4 years. 1 year is about the max before the quit and write a memior.

Thanks to you and Shady, and any other veteran's we have here, for your service.

I typically make an avatar that reflects the way I look, right down to being bald. Of course, now that I'm much older, it can be a bit harder to find the settings that add some wrinkles and gray in the beard. It's also a bit awkward making an avatar that looks 46, and then starting the game as a young squire or whatever.

Enshrouded added a big update, with a snowy biome, rainy weather, and a ton of new NPC's. NPC's actually wander around your base and need beds now, so it has a lot more personality.

I wonder if maybe Biden stepped aside too early? Kamala had a big bump right when they switched, and it faded. But hey, armchair quarterbacking won't change the results.

The guy is almost 80 and eats McDonalds regularly. Natural causes have a good chance of running their course over the next 4 years. We should probably watch that Vance movie on Netflix to figure out what his deal is.

Kamala is plenty strong as a candidate. She won the debate, she brought energy. Hopefully it really is just the economy that screwed her over. It is starting to look like a woman just can't win, which is sad. Kamala is worlds apart from Hillary, and yet I keep seeing people online bringing the two up together. That all being said, it is a long night, so we will see what happens.

It looks exactly like it did in 2020. There are still a ton of states and counties to go.
