Legally, doesn't she own the entire money he won from the bet since the bet was won with her stolen money?

Also, that expression in the picture.

My only real complaint was the MCs having voice acting. That in itself isn't too bad. It limited dialog options but that was on Bethesda for not recording more lines. My problem was not having any choice. Just one male voice and one female voice

I hear what you're saying (pun totally intended), but if they gave multiple voice options, that would have bloated the game size so much.

Completely revamped Combat Armor into a whole new game mechanic

This was a big one.
Power armor always felt like any other armor in previous games.
Sure, a little higher DR and weight, looks neat in third person... but essentially just another armor.

I guess be concerned about the potential backlash when the community discovers that im not gay.

The urge is mighty but I'm trying to resist because I don't have a job right now...but with no job I have plenty of time to build these...

Ah, the eternal money vs time conundrum

On one hand, jobs can be brutal and soul consuming.

On the other hand, jobs often are the culmination of everything you did to get there, and it's proof that your past efforts were worth it.

Or it's a part ongoing effort to better yourself for the future (make yourself more marketable with skills/reference you pick up, etc etc).

What I say: "because the company's core values of X align with my personal belief in what Y profession should be, etc etc. Insert company specific dribble and how your relate"

What I think: "because you offer the most money for the location I want to work at."

Exactly, that is what is considered utilization. Ideally paying in full each month gives you a carried balance of 0% utilization, which is far below the 30% threshold and is a good look.

The kind of tricky part here is you don't know exactly when your credit card company is reporting to the credit bureaus. So let's say for instance, you have a credit card limit of $300 and you put $150 on it, intending to pay it off in full when your bill comes due.

That seems great in theory, as it would leave you with a 0% utilization and thus a good look. However, it could very well happen that your credit card company happens to report to the credit bureaus the day after you make your $150 purchase, making it look like you have a credit utilization of 50% which is not a good look. Even though you intend to pay it off when your bill comes due!

Look, I don't want to scare you or have you overthink everything, credit can be a tricky topic. I just wanted to highlight this and recommend that you call your credit card company and ask when they report to the credit bureaus, this way you can be extra safe :)

His credit is $300, right?
So, hypothetically, should he use debit/cash after one (or two, I suppose) trip to the grocery for the rest of the month?

Not using it is MUCH worse than using it and paying it off.

I heard this was a weird concept for immigrants coming to America, that our financial trust is based on how much debt we've had.

She made a wise decision just like I did. Im just a tech though

Probably the most underappreciated and underpaid job in the healthcare business.

We expect techs to do so much... be licensed, undergo training, learn state/fed laws&reg, system to communicate with other pharmacy / hospitals, assist with vaccination (or actually give the shots in some states), run real time background checks for meth precursors, learn the store's computer system for entering/retrieving patient rx / information, transferring rx, navigating and dealing with insurance (and good techs get insurance to pay up)... and also count pills.

And what do we pay them?
Same (or less) than McDonalds down the street.
No offense to fast food workers, but come on.

Check post 28. It just makes things really convenient.

Ah.
I guess I just can't relate because I keep my phone on me, but I can see the benefits if I didn't.
If they build a phone function into the watch (I guess use a wifi earplug), I guess it could replace the phone for some people.

No go.

Even health / financial issues aside, food is a pretty big part of most people's background/culture.
Vegan is too big of a difference that I don't think I can accommodate and still be happy with my life.

It's essentially asking me to reject a big part of who I am (as well as that of my family / culture / etc etc).

I can read emails on my watch. And yes, it can be used as a music player. Hell, I can even see pics from texts from my watch.

Can you tell me what you use the watch for (no sarcasm)?

I've seen people with the watches, but it really seemed like, beyond regular watch function, they used it to get email notices (they usually took out phone to read / jot down short replies) or to keep track of their heart rate / number of steps they took that day / etc etc.

I honestly don't see the point of smartwatches (although I'm sure that's just me being ignorant of the features).

It's too small to really function as a email device beyond "hey, I got an alert saying I have mail... better check my phone", and I honestly don't think the health measuring features is really all that useful.

Whatelse can it be used for?
Music player?

Vagina meds? Wut

Women tend to get infected there.
Metronidazole is probably the most commonly used treatment..

The presentation of the protagonist is pretty different (not sure about starfield).

TES: You're the chosen one, hero, etc etc

FO: You're regular joe who happened to save the world.

Feels like TES focuses a lot more on you, where as FO seems to focus a lot more on the world.
Or, I guess puts more emphasis.

It's interesting how American reviewers seem to judge the game more harshly than non-American.

Difference in taste, I guess?
Or maybe Beth game gets the "it's an exotic American view of the future world" pass from non-Americans?

Like that elevator clip.
Some of us saw that as "what a trashy programing", but maybe they might see it as a done on purpose joke, "lololol... American version of the improved future elevator with unlimited capacity. Oh, you crazy Americans".

Blue.
Lex Luthor is definitely blue.

The barren randomly generated planets seem like such a waste of dev time from what I've seen. There seems to be no real reason to even engage with that part of the game.

...but in Space.

Actually, weren't a lots of Oblivion also generated?

Didn't 10% used to be the disposable (not 20)?
And housing 30%?
Maybe they're grouping other things into it?

Great side quests, horrid main quest.
Ok, that sound's like the standard Beth.

Sort of interesting that they bothered to point out that combat was one of the positives, since that tends to be Beth's weak point.

I wonder if Fallout 4 style is going to become the default for Beth.
Relatively light on rpg but heavy on gunplay.

Oh dear, I can see Peach and Daisy's drawers.
It's going to get modded for sure.

Ah, I misunderstood how the system worked.
Thanks for clarifying it for me.

I was under the impression that reviewers got the codes like a day or so before (to prevent leaks) and had a limited time to play before posting a review.

She's not Vega, she's F.A.N.G that's more dynamic to play it looks like.

This.
Sort of makes me feel like Capcom looked at how players were playing FANG in the last two seasons and decided to go with that.

Honestly, for a big games like this, I feel like reviewers should at least play for a several days ~ one week before dropping a number (unless the game is so horrid as to be unplayable).

But of course, that's not realistic.

Anyways, expect it to be in the high 80s, but I don't think it'll break 90.
Too much hype that just can't be met and will inevitably leave some reviewers disappointed/let down.

VT is 7th highest? I knew it was pretty expensive, but I'm a little surprised.

How is that possible?

Isn't Vermont largely a... rural undeveloped state?
Or is it all the "out of staters" that buy up second/third/etc etc houses for vacation?

So... basically we have a third of the year left before Xmas.

Well, the Holidays, anyways.

This much is true.
Hopefully, Biden will continue this (although sometimes the choice is made by a foreign aggressor).

Now, we all wait for the piloting space flight/combat trailer.
Bonus points if you can dogfight or fight air to surface on the planet/atmosphere.

Especially for poorer countries, since the change in fortune will be more pronounced.

Nice

I've seen modded spears for Skyrim (and I think Oblivion, though it's hazy)... but I seem to recall they all basically worked like a sword that just happened to look like a spear (same grip, stance, movement, etc etc).

Did they make mods that has spear-like animation?

Tyranthraxus posted...

The limitations were dramatically increased when they released Skyrim AE and you can further extend them with mods.

It's unlikely anyone will ever completely fill up the slots for assets without intentionally trying to.

Wait.
Does this mean we might finally get spears back?
Or more options in combat?

Honestly, I don't think it's an issue about Biden himself.

It's like asking "do you like that brand of hot dog buns".

https://www.politico.eu/article/uk-parliament-calls-taiwan-independent-country-report-says-james-cleverly-visit-china/

The British parliament has for the first time referred to Taiwan as an "independent country" in an official document, breaking a political taboo as Foreign Secretary James Cleverly visits China this week.

...just when the first envoy to China in 5 years is taking place.
Whoa.

And I thought Biden was tough on China.

Tyranthraxus posted...

They updated gamebryo significantly. It's not the same thing they use to use anymore.

Kinda like Valve and Source.

Yeah, but it still has limitations on number of animations and whatnot, right?
I've heard (and correct me if I'm wrong) that that was the reason why certain weapons/actions were removed from each successive TES games.

Add new movement, they had to remove an old one to make space.

Usually with Bethesda games people tend to just mod in anime or what-have-you anyways,
we'll propbably see that soon enough with Starfield.

And junks. Junks that will put BG3's junks to shame.

Glad to read that you are physically safe and unhurt, although you probably need time to decompress.
I know you probably heard this a million times, but I hope you take it slow.

Somehow, I expected the game to be more like Outerworlds in aesthetics.
Like NMS and Outerworlds mixed together.

I was imagining the game being a third person Mechwarrior.

It seems like an action game more in lines with Metalworlf Chaos..

One of the purpose of the court jester was to make fun of the king/nobles to make sure they remembered that they were fallible (and not surround themselves with "yes"men).
