I didn't get all the endings, but I "beat" the stuff that's been released. It's actually pretty good, sharply written and engaging enough to encourage long play sessions. The puzzles are extremely easy, really my only complaint.

which one has the biggest butt

None of them have big dumpers, really. They all have the same proportions.

My MBA program cost about 60k total. I'll pay a tenth of that thanks to PSLF.

It should be acknowledged that he said it, sure. Then he needs to be told to go fuck himself.

Telling people to fuck off is how you end up with 75 year old grandpas saying things like this. That's not the way to go about this topic, clearly, because it's been several decades and you still have gays, lesbians, and other groups being marginalized in huge populations of the world and barely making any permanent progress in the US. The topic is so personal to people, being tied to their identities and lifestyles, that any discussion immediately boils over into an emotional cage match with one side the vilified and ostracized victims and the other being the self-proclaimed righteous defenders of children. I don't want to bum anyone out but I seriously don't think we'll ever see total acceptance of gays, lesbians, transexuals, or any other marginalized group in our lifetimes because there will always be those holdouts that feel personally attacked by whatever message is said, whatever action is taken, whatever progress is made, and will find it to be morally acceptable to fight back and draw others to their side. Again, not trying to ruin anyone's Saturday, so I'll see myself out and I apologize for only responding to one point in my initial post.

yeah aren't most modern and decent ones more than the cost of a ps5?

Kinda. A 4050 or 4060 is less, but once you get to a 4070 it's the same price.

nope Baldur's Gate 3 is the one that is guaranteed to win

BG3 will win "Best RPG" or something, Zelda is so accessible it's hard not to see it win. I wouldn't pick either tbh.

I didn't cherrypick, YOU claimed he didn't say anything unreasonable and I provided examples of that being complete and utter bullshit. And "I was right about him not saying anything transphobic because I didn't read the parts that were" is a fucking horrible argument.

Sure. I'll concede that.

The part that stood out to me is the part I addressed: the "fad chasing" he alludes to. That's something that should be acknowledged, not the imaginary rapist that will waddle into a bathroom and assault someone we've been hearing about for 4 years from the right yet somehow haven't encountered.

So you think the following is a reasonable take on trans people?

Counter point: I only read the first paragraph.

*complains about cherrypicking while cherrypicking

That's the part I read.

FH5 didn't even get nominated last year. Racing games get no respect.

I don't think he said anything unreasonable, same with Paul Stanley. Ted Nugent definitely crossed that line, and I think Carlos Santana's recent rant (at a concert, no less) was a bit ignorant.

Im understanding that there are cases of transgender, but Im afraid that its also a fad, and Im afraid theres a lot of people claiming to be this just because they want to be that.

This can be said about lots of stuff. The problem springs up when people handwave all trans people and dismiss them as chasing a trend or looking for attention which, from what I could gather, is the opposite of what they want.

Same stuff I wear when I'm out: jeans, t-shirt or dress shirt if I have to work, shoes, socks, skivvies.

How is this relevant to the topic?

yes and look how ppl react to jim sterling or yong yea or any one else who does discuss these things gamersTM attack them

People attacked Howard Stern too, he was brazen and went against the grain. He still got info out of people that nobody else could. Jim Sterling got shit because he was an obnoxious douche that pretended to be better than everyone, I don't know much about Yong Yea so I can't comment on him.

Just no, do one. A memorial for someone who'd just passed is and will never be the place to start with "well maybe it was the vaccine", the mods of a pro-wrestling sub are absolutely right to shut that **** down. Even on a normal day, that's not the place, and minutes after Bray Wyatt's death was announced was most certainly neither the time nor the place.

The family literally said he developed further heart complications due to COVID. Not the vaccine, but the virus. COVID. Yet antivaxxers ignored that and turned it into a debate about the vaccine. They did exactly what I said:

there's no way to "shut down" anti-vax rhetoric because they've dug their heels too far into the dirt and refuse to budge.

They are literally being told they are factually wrong in this instance yet they refuse to admit it.

AceMos posted...

agreed but look what happens when ppl call out corruption in the gaming industry they get attacked by former gamergate members

There 100% needs to be more transparency and openness within the gaming journalism circle. You've got places like IGN openly omitting platforms for game announcements in an act of deception to prop up a certain platform that starts with "P" and ends with "layStation 5". When questioned about this on social media (again, lack of openness: the only way to contact these journalists and actually get a response is on Twitter, where you need to hope enough people either dogpile on them and build pressure or "like" your post enough to draw their attention), you get a non-answer or a block. There are also so many shady practices within the industry that journalists are not shining a light on in fear of being blacklisted or withheld from certain events or launches. Compare gaming journalism to automotive journalism, where journalists will tell engineers and division leads to their face that their products are disappointments and some decisions are alienating consumers, or sports journalists that regularly get into it with athletes, GMs, and coaches when they feel the fans are getting a raw deal. Gaming journalism needs a (90s) Howard Stern.

My dad didn't get the vaccine and mentioned ivermectin once or twice, I can't remember what the context was.

Good. Now go fucking support Cronos.

That's a shame, because those things are needed especially now.

From what I recall on /v/ when it first started boiling over, the initial point of "GamerGate" was to call for ethics standards and transparency in gaming journalism...which is still sorely needed. Then it became culture war bullshit and I lost interest.

And if it IS a necessary evil to ward off the disease that should still be something people are fully informed of, especially if they're putting it in their bodies.

They literally had warnings in the pamphlet I was handed before getting my shots in 2021. They even flat out said the shots weren't FDA approved, and that they were authorized for emergency use only.

I'm sure you did, stage4Trumpy.

He's definitely funnier than you.

It's sad seeing the replies ITT and knowing these people are almost all older than me.

OP, there's no way to "shut down" anti-vax rhetoric because they've dug their heels too far into the dirt and refuse to budge. In typical my-personality-revolves-politics fashion, they put on the faade of a concerned citizen only looking out for your best interests, softly guiding you by the hand toward a more peaceful existence and away from dangers that they can see but you can't. Are they actually looking out for you? Of course not. They want you to join their side and bark the same things they do at those they've deemed the opposition. If they were sincerely, truly, authentically and wholeheartedly doing this out of the goodness of their hearts, they wouldn't take pride in their "pure blood" self-proclamation. That's how they see you: mudblood, impure, tainted. Make no mistake: they want the vaccines to be dangerous and want every single instance of someone passing out or experiencing a medical emergency to be caused by the vaccine that person got 3 years ago (and not the billions of chemicals that person has ingested since then) so they can validate the isolation and ostracization they brought upon themselves. You can't and won't change their minds because they place a greater importance on the indoctrination they've had shoved down their gullets over on anything you could say, do, or convey.

I think this looks really intriguing and should be a great breath of fresh air, but I'm a bit concerned this will be the new timeline going forward. I almost wish they'd split the series into two entries and continue the two universes separately.

And you will have the opportunity to get the new vaccine eventually.
Getting the new vaccine is a precaution included in pretty much every set of guidelines.

I'm good, thanks.

I liked his quips. Many missed, some landed. They were amusing. I thought the seething upon his election was entertaining for, like, a month, then that also got old. The schtick got boring by year 2. I stopped paying attention by that point. There's no chance he wins next year, no matter how much Twi--err, X conservatives pretend his appearance on Tucker's "show" matters.

>give 10 years of your life to make her happy

I assume he's trolling.

Ceres Fauna, don't even @ me

I wish this game would click for me. I keep approaching it from different angles but it's not connecting the way it seems it has with others, and that's a real bummer. Elden Ring was a masterpiece, it clicked instantly and blew me away. Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Same with Morrowind back in the day, MGS1 and 2, FFX. But this one simply isn't. I'm gonna keep plugging away in hopes that it does.

Speeding. Only asshole kids speed outside of their control (which they do anyway even with the laws). Studies show that when most people speed, they only go as fast as they're comfortable with.

No. I had two, I had COVID. I take precautions when necessary and follow guidelines when asked.

I play on hard and liking the challenge this far, few bosses and those big unique mobs have been tough but just gotta equip right stuff and artes and do thr combat properly.

You're playing it smartly then, enjoy it. Dohalim and Kisara have the best support skits in the game, he's seriously one of my favorite JRPG characters in a long time.
