Tales of Maj'Eyal would be at the top of my list of the decade. It's incredibly good and I can't recommend it enough. Get it, get the expansions, and then forget what other games are for a few months. Caves of Qud I would tie with Maj'Eyal if it were finished but it's not. But it's basically...

They've stated that they won't do follow up strikes if the US doesn't retaliate. We haven't retaliated violently, which I imagine is good enough for them. After all, right now the Revolutionary Guard is reporting that dozens of Americans have been killed despite that not happening. They're...

The administration's response today was to "de-escalate" by saying they're going to put even more sanctions on Iran. It's better than them retaliating violently, but this is going to change absolutely nothing in the region. So "crisis averted" I suppose, only not really.

The "funny" bit is that we labeled the Revolutionary Guard as a terrorist organization specifically so we could "get away" with something like that assassination. It was a bullshit designation to be used as an excuse. I figure Iran thinks they're just returning the favor with that designation...

So this happened today https://www.cbsnews.com/news/irans-news-parliment-approves-bill-designating-u-s-military-terrorist-organizations-qassem-soleimani/ The Iranian parliament designated the US military and the Pentagon as terrorist organizations. Which ya know...fair. Realistically I don't...

This isn't completely true. The vote wasn't on just expelling US troops, it was also about ending Iraq's membership in the international coalition to fight ISIS. Basically they want to stop aiding the US led coalition. There were a few other demands as well such as investigating US bombings, but...

The response shouldn't have been the assassination of a key figure. Keep in mind that we're not even at war with Iran, and yet we killed the head of the Revolutionary Guard. The Guard is a part of the Iranian military. We didn't kill a random fucking terrorist militia leader. I know that they...

The Pentagon confirmed that he was killed in the strike but didn't specify that he was the target. However...come the fuck on. Right now government officials are literally celebrating his death and claiming that the people of Iraq are happy that he's dead. Even if they're not directly saying it...

There kind of isn't though. The Clinton years saw the rise of Newt Gingrich as Speaker of the House and the insanity that he brought with him. The "partisanship" was just as bad back then. Hell, so many of the same people in politics today were being just as insane back then too. Just go back...

This is cartoonishly evil. "Hey lets set up a fake university and lure in immigrants that have student visas. Then after they give us their money, we take their visa and deport them while pocketing the cash". Not only that, but their defense is that the people trying to enroll into their scam...

I know they've stated that they're not, I didn't say that they officially were. But there are plenty of winks and nods to it in DS3, to where even though they say that, connections can be made. It was clearly intentional, even if the connections aren't official. Or it could be that they just...

Honestly my favorite is 2 as well. It's a very flawed game that I wish they had more time to work on, but I feel like it's strengths make up for those flaws. The narrative, the themes, the NPCs, the build variety, and the pacing of the game are fantastic. Hell, I'm replaying it again right now...

Mauler is a bit of a joke of a person. He's one of those people who stress that they only do "objective" critiques and that he has a very big brain for doing so. Totally normal and not full of himself. And that nine hour response video series is a result of him definitely not being mad. As...

If female: Arcia, Yuria, or Celia. If male: Vaelis, Soren, or Locke.

Obama didn't win because Osama Bin Laden was killed. Literally no one gave a shit when it happened. They even tried to make a big deal out of it by selling it as another 9/11 moment. People forgot about it basically immediately. Probably because at that point, the average person fully fucking...
