Ha, I actually had a much longer version of my post that mentioned finding like-minded people to hang out with, people you could share your faith with, people to fellowship with, people you could prepare and talk about contingencies with... I ended up deleting it and simply leaving the above version.

Good reminder to buy more ammo and continue to get your range time in.

I only read the first book and didn't enjoy it too much. That said, even though the plot didn't strike me, I must admit the world-building was great.

"BY FIRE BE PURGED!" - Ragnaros, the Firelord

Gentlemen, I can't seem to find my violin. I sincerely apologize. It appears to have gotten so small, I can no longer find it.

Gives off the same energy as "According to sources familiar with the thinking of..."

The whole thing comes off as a parody until you realize this is what many believe.

As someone who played through the Uncharted series multiple times before trying TLOU, I'm fully willing to admit my apathy towards it was most likely from being burnt out on the ND gameplay loop at that point. Additionally, the "zombies, but not zombies" angle didn't really intrigue me. By the time the second rolled around, and more information was released about it, I'd pretty much thrown in the towel.

I get what you're saying. My thought process was that they (execs) would give Andromeda a pass since it was done by Bioware Montreal and not the Edmonton studio that made the originals. Don't get me wrong, everything Edmonton has worked on since has been ass, but I can still see them giving the studio "one last shot" with the more proven IP.

The game spent the better part of a decade in development and was restarted multiple times. Factor in the marketing they did for it, and the game will most likely not break even for a while... if at all.

That said, Mass Effect is a much larger IP than Dragon Age. So, even with DAV's (most likely) financial failure, I can see EA still dragging Bioware's carcass forward to push out another sequel in the pursuit of more money.

Gentlemen, I apologize. I came into this thread without any fucks to give about anything the ADL does or says. If you have any extra fucks, please give them to the ADL on my behalf.

Well, I haven't watched any reviews for Farm Sim 25 yet, but I'm guessing a small portion of its success is that there's prob not a mentally ill, self-important, emotionally unstable farmhand you're forced to hire and work with. I could be wrong though.

My first time seeing Tom Homan speak was during an interaction he had AOC. I appreciated how he stood his ground and hope he brings that same type of energy to securing our border.

She's also on the wrong side of common sense. But when has that ever deterred them?

Such performative, propagandizing, alligator tears.

If/when my vote ends up going to the loser of an important election, I don't set up a camera and cry for attention. I do what a normal person does, I buy more ammo.

Regardless of who wins, full investigations should always be carried out, followed by actual punishments for those who broke the law. I don't care what side of the aisle they're on.

This made me do a spit-take laugh and I wasn't even drinking anything. Thank you.

All of the bots in that thread are literally shaking right now!

Well, I hope whoever is looking forward to this gets a game they enjoy. Every preview I see reinforces that I'm not their target audience. I did enjoy the first, for what it was, but I've spent less and less time with each subsequent sequel.

I know none of ya'll personally but I do genuinely hope, whatever happens next November in the US, you're taking precautions to keep your families safe and prepared.

Happy Anniversary.

"His unique and mysterious life made him an ideal candidate to tell an Assassin's Creed story with the setting of Feudal Japan as a backdrop."

Ideal candidate? Perhaps it is for those looking to score ESG points/funds. Not so much for those looking to play as, get this, someone native to the actual setting.

I'm glad they're getting push back on this.

Despite not really playing it before, I really enjoy Trackmania streams/YT videos. Recently there was a big community challenge event based around a difficult tower map, called Deep Dip 2. While I could never dream of finishing that map, it did finally get me to jump into the game and start playing with some regularity.

Hey hey, people... I really wish I could get into Starsector more. I've played the first 2-4 hours of a playthru probably about 4 times over the years. It's just never stuck.

I'm happy that you've found a game that resonates with you. That's awesome.
