His challenger was good, but he may well have won because the GOP didn't field a real candidate.

In the past, there was even less distribution of wealth then there is today, so its not like most people had an incentive to amass wealth because they simply had no opportunity to do so. Most people were forever destined to be peasants or lower class in the past, so I just dont see the incentive to be racist for that reason because they couldnt amass wealth anyway. The amassed wealth of some whites in US history was made possible only by concerted efforts to keep poor whites and poor blacks from allying with one another. --- kin to all that throbs |

Topic | I have so many thoughts about The Crew 2 |
Antifar 07/04/18 11:34:17 PM #1 | It does a lot of things I like - The map is gigantic - The photo and replay editors are really in-depth and cool - Switching between vehicles is really fun, and the bikes are especially enjoyable to ride There are some weird design choices - You, the main character, never speak. You also choose your avatar at the beginning of the game and can never change this decision. However, you have a friend named Hiro who speaks for you in cutscenes and annoys you during gameplay sometimes too. The story, such that it is, is every racing game cliche you could imagine - I think the real fun of the game is to be had in exploration, but they undercut this slightly by allowing you to fast travel to events for free from the very start. There's this big open world, but you don't need to actually use it to just race. A lot of players skipped from event to event without really driving in the world, and felt disappointed (I believe) as a result - Everybody on Reddit is complaining about rubberband AI, but I've found it really, really easy to beat provided your vehicle is the recommended level - This is the first racing game I've encountered with a Destiny-style endgame: about 12 hours in I unlocked all the events and began the real grind of the game, raising my level from 1 to a max of 9999, upgrading vehicles along the way. There's a loot system and everything --- There really isn't enough content in the game as it stands to support this grind. If you want to boost up a Rallycross vehicle, for example, there are only 6 races with which to do that, in three locales. There are plenty of street races, but even those are clumped together in a few cities and aren't found in others. Which brings me to the larger point that the game pretty obviously just isn't finished at launch. They've been pretty upfront that they're gonna constantly update it (for free!) post-launch, but for now - There are locales and events already in the game world that aren't yet available for use - PVP is five months away. That's not something I particularly care about, but I don't get the urge to grind otherwise - There's not a whole lot to do in the world; events and challenges are weirdly spaced. - They've hinted at the ability for players to create their own challenges, which was available in DLC for the first game, but this as of yet isn't in TC2. --- kin to all that throbs |
