I agree TC, my friends and I will disagree all the time, but never attack each other, you answered your own question too. These are our thoughts, no one elses, your gonna feel a little defensive. And the fear itself from being wrong will ultimately drive some anger out.

Edit, Ego for short. You just gotta remember to control your own insecurities or your going to trip.

None of those things are original to either game.

Hell, the early "hidden" ending in FC5 wasn't even the first time Far Cry did it.


What other far cry did it? EDIT, saw that 4 did have one as well. Using Google, I barely got past the intro in 4 so I can safely say I had no experience other than an hour or two

And I'm not saying these ideas are original, so get that out of your head. I'm just wondering if these studios ever have conversations with each other?

I see how dying light borrowed from the far cry,l series, but has any one thought about Far cry 5 and compaired it to the dying light expansion, "The following".

Spoilers

That expansion had a progression bar that filled as you completed tasks in the open world that unlocks story missions the more you fill it.

A cult that is seemingly not crazy, where in Far cry they are nuts. Both leaders of the cult are deranged but in dying light you don't really figure that out till later. While in 5. You know right off the bat.

A way to end the game fast in dying light you had the nuke. In Far cry 5 you have common sense and can choose not to arrest seed.

Now I can easily make comparisons on how dying light borrowed from the Far cry series in general. Even the dead island games, in this case I'm only trying to compare what five may have borrowed from the expansion of Dying light, " The Following"

Just a fun thought.

I don't think there's a problem with people coming in right before closing, provided the store actually follows through with closing announcements, and addressing the customers that are still left that they need to get what they need and head to the cashier.

If the store is not doing that, and don't want to rush customers because they want the money rather than caring that the employees just want to get the fuck home, then that sucks for the employees.

I've been in retail stores where upper upper management does not want to enforce closing routines because they want every last cent and want the customers to pick shit out. It pisses coworkers off and lowers morale


Restaurants do this, it always lowers morale

And when you're already a Billionaire, it means you don't have to cater to these billion dollar companies and special interest groups that funded your campaign.

Oh, we will fund your candidacy for president, but only if you support X, Y, and Z. It's why Ted Cruz is acting so much better now. He doesn't have to cater to the money. When they pay for your bid for presidency, they own you. They own all of your ideals.

And it's why people like Trump. He doesn't have to bow down to corporate America. He doesn't have to do the bidding for the oil companies. He doesn't have to cater to special interest groups.

We will never get a president who isn't owned by Corporate America again. Appreciate him while he's here.


Trump has been bailed by several banks in his time, Israeli owned I might add, so go on and tell me his ideals are legit.

Also look up genie oil on Google and look at there board of advisors. Trump is on a paid for plan.

Imagine being with someone that casually kills a fetus because they changed their mind. Its a life, not a cheap bracelet from the mall, dude.

Shut the fuck up. Her body her choice.

But she created a different body that didnt have a choice.

The US government disagrees.


The US government thinks its okay to spy on its own people. They also think its okay to drone strike innocent people. You picked the wrong group of people to base your opinion on.

I'm against late term abortions when the fetus actually has brain activity, but until they do, they are not yet any more alive than a plant is. And yes plants are alive but they aren't concious.


Didnt they discover that trees will actually react to being cut down, and the trees around them will react as well?


We have computers that can talk to trees now, its slowly progressing.

not to a comparable level

we're still not even sure if the lemba were semitic. there's very little in the form of primary source text about the society, just artifacts.

greek history was recorded by unreliable narrators...but it was recorded.


In a language that can hardly even be comparable to English. Most history is fiction, I love reading history, but come on.

I mean that's a bold stance to take even if you are of the "erasing history" camp.


In that instant, absolutely, and a second can be defined to be a eternity by others or myself. I mean, I want to destroy it, but time and time again it'll just resurface, even if it was destroyed.

Like a coworker will come up, start telling me a personal life story and I just tune out the moment it gets boring. I need something funny or dramatic to muster up enough fucks to continue the convo.

Like yesterday I went to lunch with a coworker, and she was telling me about how she finally started seeing a guy and my reaction was just a blank stare and "I'm happy for you" and she talked about how they hung out for hours last weekend.

Maybe I'm just apathetic for anything that isn't video games, food, funny, dramatic, or tech related. Or related directly to me


Well you brought this up so obviously you care enough. Sounds like some personal barrier issues.

I think I read that by the end of this year you'll be able to purchase Chapter 1 (of 37): The Bombing Mission. The inclusion of Biggs, Wedge and Jessie and a 'cosmetic enhancer' for Tifa's boobs are slated to be DLC extras.


Honestly that would surprise me, despite all the info on it in, im going to say this next summer, or two summers from now. Kingdom hearts WILL kill sales for FF7, and the user base demanding 7 remake can't be growing, I imagine its shrinking. Regardless, I think it going to be a summer release.

Though I could be wrong. Tomb raider gets this winter though. And remember they have that triple A marvel game too. I think seven is going to be patiently timed. Releasing episodes is different than a full release. They have to give you the full package with every episode or risk backlash if it comes as incomplete. And remember the story is also being redone. So its like a half baked 7.
