There have always been loads of direct parallels between Chris Chan and Icoyar.

Yeah I've noticed that as well.
Chris Chan has made clear though that he hates people with Aspergers because he claims that they aren't really autistic, so they would probably hate each other if they had ever met.

Was she getting off to him crapping himself?

"She" is one of the many trolls pretending to be a girl and having a relationship with Chris.
And yes, it's all trolling, but yeah the intent of the troll is to give Chris that idea.

The Diablo 1 and 2 remaster.

Diablo 1 I bought on GoG a long time ago. I think it's on sale right now. It's the only place you can digitally buy the game. Not even Blizzard store has it for some reason.

Diablo 2 and LoD classic are seperate on Blizzard's store, you can't buy them in a bundle, but you can buy them for $10 each

Diablo 2 Resurrected pre-order that includes Diablo 3 and all DLC?

I always considered Diablo 1 to be the "single player version" while Diablo 2 was the multiplayer one. Funny enough, when the creators left Blizzard and formed Runic Games, they did the same thing with Torchlight.

Did a large portion of Diablo team even make Torchlight though? David Brevik went on to develop Hellgate London

I'm not sure if it's active at all online at this point, but I don't think I played online last time I played it (a few years ago).

There seems to be a bunch of joinable online games.
I think Blizz games are all pretty active online, even the old games.

~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out. Coming Fall 1996~

I'm still going through Diablo 1 first, but one thing I would like to know, does Diablo 2 let you do a new game+ sorta thing where you start the game with the same stats and such? Would be cool to use if I wanna play on a higher difficulty or something

---

~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out. Coming Fall 1996~

I honestly only bought classic Diablo 2 last night, on Blizzard's online store, for 10 dollars each (D2 and LoD are sold separately in the store). I feel not-very-shitty because they were inexpensive.
I may pre-order the bundle of the D2 remaster eventually that includes Diablo 3, then I'll pretty much have everything Diablo on PC.

Over the years I have tried other Blizzard games Starcraft, WoW, and Warcraft. The RTS games were too goddamn hard, even though they're great games, they just aren't for me. WoW had a fucking awful community so I hate it for that alone. Playing Diablo 1 on GoG has taught me that it's really the only Blizzard series I like, lol
I don't think it's necessarily bad if I only support one Blizzard franchise.

New World is supposed to be the true WoW killer, or I guess more specifically, Blizzard killed itself and now New World takes the throne. You could cancel all your WoW subs and pre-order Nrew World....but then you're supporting Amazon which has had it's own share of human rights abuses lately.
But really who DOESN'T shop on Amazon :/

---

~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out. Coming Fall 1996~

So, does Diablo 2 LoD launch both Diablo 2 and the expansion? I don't understand. Btw I'm playing through Diablo 1 and 2 because I've never played them before.

Per Kotick's statement:

"In-game Changes. We have heard the input from employee and player communities that some of our in-game content is inappropriate. We are removing that content."

Huh? What content was that?

^Was not saying that at all and my point still stands that the news article you quoted was a terrible example.

"Ultimately, I have to ask why is Kotick paid as much as he is, if he's nowhere to be found at Blizzard's darkest hour? For an ongoing calamity of reasons, I'd say the time for new leadership, new perspective, and a more progressive vision for one of gaming's most historic publishers is long overdue."

What a loser

The trilogy was good but I feel like the finale lacked oomph

Just finished and yeah, but...I guess this isn't even supposed to be the last film.
From quick research, looks like the new movie is still being worked on and Covid affected production, but not too much given that the movie has a ton of CGI.
Hopefully they give us a time frame soon.
New movie is gonna be where the og Planet of the Apes is, in terms of timeline.

~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out. Coming Fall 1996~

I finished Dawn last night as well. Both films were on my Starz free month trial.
Apes invading human territory combat scene was exciting
I can rent War for 5 dollars CAD on Amazon Prime. I may watch it tonight that way

---

~Nintendo 64. Get N or Get out. Coming Fall 1996~

I may watch Dawn tonight yet or just watch something else, IDK yet
I give it a 7.5/10. It was a great action movie but lacking the "whole end of civilization" aspect of the old movie, although I think the virus that killed humans implied that it was GETTING there.
Does that start in Dawn of the Planet of the Apes?

Im legit conflicted

I love that game so much but I dont want to support this company

Buy it if it's something you'll enjoy.
Maybe take consolidation that the money will also go to the victims too?
Let the lawsuit run it's course and hope the best comes out of it, and in the meantime buy Diablo II (if it doesn't get canceled) so that the employees who were abused can continue to support themselves.

Mead posted...

dude do you think things get to the point where the entire state is taking the company to court without anyone stopping to look at the context and credibility of allegations?

From everything I've read, there's no doubt that Afraisibi guy is a sleazeball and a predator and also given the cube crawls, threats of violence toward women, unequal pay and treatment (referring to the fact that women had to write reports of why they had to take vacation, while men didn't, and also that men could slack off while women were always disciplined to stay "on-task" is definitely discrimination) etc. I definitely feel this is credible. I just don't get why Blackschythe is highlighting this one specific thing. I see stuff like this at bars and such all the time and it's generally accepted as long as the guy doesn't force it and stop when the girl pulls away.

What the literal fuck? You one of those "male rights" people?

No. I believe that harassment in the workplace is something that needs to be taken seriously and combated, but that it's also a complex issue and that people seem to generalize it and treat it as a black-and-white issue when it really isn't.
Did the accused continue when the accuser let him know she wasn't okay with it, did she tell the accuser to stop, etc.
Also there are instances in which hitting on someone is appropriate, and when it isn't. People whom are attracted to one another hitting on each other is part of life. Context is important.
I guess one thing about the part you highlighted is that he "attempted" to kiss her, as in, she pulled away, so once he knew she didn't wanna be kissed, he stopped. From that wording it seems like he wasn't forcing it.
I just feel like this is different from crawling around cubicles and groping women and you're putting them on the same level for some reason.

Holy fucking shit dude, I just saw a video on youtube that dug a bit into it. This is so bad, like apparently people from Europe offices would go to the US get harassed and shit.

Then there is this dude who always just kinda looked wimpy at Blizzcon

Like holy shit there had been bad stories about the Blizzard culture for years but that...

BlackScythe0 posted...

Alex Afrasiabi, the former Senior Creative Director of World of Warcraft at Blizzard Entertainment, was permitted to engage in blatant sexual harassment with little to no repercussions. During a company event (an annual convention called Blizz Con) Afrasiabi would hit on female employees, telling him he wanted to marry them, attempting to kiss them, and putting, his arms around them. This was in plain view of other male employees, including supervisors, who had to intervene and pull him off female employees. Afrasiabi was so known to engage in harassment of females that his suite was nicknamed the Crosby Suite after alleged rapist Bill Crosby.

Of all the gross stuff that's come out in this whole ordeal, I honestly dunno why you highlighted this part. This type of behaviour is not the same thing as being pinned down and raped.
The level of toxicity is important and I think that's why there is so much backlash against the Metoo movement. I would absolutely love if all I had to worry about in life was being catcalled and "hit on". It's important to distinguish that from real assault.

because pandas are worthless garbage animals who only exist because people think they're cute.

Yet humans are even more worthless garbage animals for their lack of compassion for other living things (including their own fellow humans) so we should all welcome and work towards pandas moving farther and farther away from extinction to safe.

Finding bodies at residential schools is not news. The fact that so many are treating it as though it is is just a testament to how wilfully blind Canadians are to our history.

Wait, you're Canadian adjl? I always thought you were American O_o

And yes you're right that Canadians are blind to history and politics. I knew about residential schools but was never really taught how bad it really was until recently.

A few years ago I started this game on hard mode and eventually gave up despite making it through the game quite far and really loving the game, but dying over and over through borderline impossible parts really turned me off and eventually just lost interest.
Now I started the game again, this time on normal mode. I love everything about it, the atmosphere, gameplay, the music, the exploration, story etc. but then I have to be reminded that I technically suck because I'm playing on normal.
JRPGs are flexible in that they almost always have new game+ so you can beat the game on normal knowing that as long as you progress, you can play on the harder difficulties and go at your own pace.
WRPG devs create amazing games, but then with the higher difficulty levels just kill all the amazing atmosphere and immersion by having us die over and over and use trial and error. If you want to actually have fun and enjoy the game you have to feel inferior by playing on a lower difficulty level.
Witcher 2 is apparently worse with this and not looking forward to that, but apparently Witcher 3 has new game+? Kudos to devs for getting it right the third time I guess.
