The Banner Saga 3 (PC)

pretty sure i got the worst ending, but i'm not quite willing the play through the series again to try and change it

Having not played the series to understand what constitutes as a "bad ending" here, that sounds rough.

It's absolutely a rough series tonally in general, so I felt okay about it. I tend to super-complete games and get 'perfect' endings on first playthrough, so it was kind of nice to mess one up

Totally. On top of that, there are some weapons that are a percentage chance drop from non-respawning enemies

if you guys actually hate RNG this much, you can always go play Prismata.


Is it out of closed beta yet

missed this for some reason!

yep, at least on steam. even when it was in closed beta the devs were handing out keys like candy in their subreddit

i'll be honest, i don't play it all that much, and when i do i mostly just play against AI of varying difficulty

zero RNG, turn-based games are absolutely brutal. i bring up the game because i think it gives good perspective on the usefulness of randomness

Zero RNG is automatically better because you have to be good to win. There is no getting bailed out for making stupid plays.

So, to ask the obvious question - why aren't you playing this game already!

caveat: i didn't play any of the DLC for any of these titles

all of the games are great in different ways

i actually think dark souls 2 had the best pvp and overall gameplay, even if the setting/story was a big fat disappointment

the first dark souls is super cool for being the one to really get the ball rolling and create that sense of setting

dark souls 3 did wonderful great job of ending the trilogy and is, in terms of tech and co-op, the best made

bloodborne is beautiful and changed up the gameplay enough to almost be my favorite- it was just short and not that diverse

I would say the best thing about the series is its pathos. It does create a kind of feeling that isn't too common in gaming

Certain specific fights can be really satisfying, too

I would recommend jumping in and trying it with low expectations, and if the story ever starts feeling bad or stupid to just abort because it never improves

Sure. If you make production of drugs illegal, production will tend to move outside the country and continue.

Also, if you make production of child pornography illegal, production will tend to move outside the country and continue.

Lastly, yes, if you make production of ridiculously cheap goods via pollution illegal, production will tend to move outside the country and continue.

The fact that all three of these situations are wildly different means that there isn't a one size fits all solution. You have to use evidence based policy and work toward goals

Start with the facts and then make your way towards policies.

I find folks who start with policy stances and then try to massage the facts in their favor to be extremely irritating.
