Fallout 3 is fine and all but its main story is pretty weak. And without getting into spoilers, the ending involves some bullshit because development schedule was so crunched for time that they weren't able to take into account certain companions you might have access to. And originally the player was railroaded into a bullshit ending until the DLC fixed it.

I would recommend playing it before New Vegas.

And some others might be able to clarify but apparently Fallout 3 does not gel well with the lore setup that 1+2 provide. 3 was the first game made by Bethesda after the original developers.

So....the law indicates that men are such manipulative pieces of shit (and the occasional woman the cops accidentally employ) that a wife's husband needs to protect her from other men.

Of course the Holocaust happened - the Nazis were kind enough to record everything they did themselves. They admitted it, you dipshit. They were proud of it.

They "finished" it with like Season 10, and it's a good stopping spot. But then GOTTA MAKE MORE and they turned it into a zombie. So it's officially never ended but there is a noticeable point where it was meant to end and you can stop there and ignore what comes after.

Fuck, Blowey Zoey works for SWI too?

I know she'd written a game (Solar Ash) but I haven't been keeping tabs on her. She laid low after her #MeToo attempt backfired and Alec Holowka committed suicide from her harassment.

It sounds like they had something particularly damning behind their Patreon if they settled for 2.4 million. They must have faced getting super buttfucked if 2.4 million is the lesser of two evils.

Indian men are some of the rapiest on the planet and there's a good reason why not even Indian women want to be involved with an Indian man if they're not being forced into marriage by their parents. If all tourist dried up in India due to the animals unable to control themselves, the Indian government would be forced to do something but since tourism won't stop there is no incentive to care.

cleaning of house so to speak between SR2 and SR3, some time around when Agents of Mayhem was finished

Can you clarify this because SR3 came out in late 2011 and Agents of Mayhem came out six years later

I would be interested in finding out exactly who was fired.

Because it's one thing to lose obvious dead weight, but it's another thing when your company is making cushy profits and you still decide bam 1 in 20 people are now fired. Could also be some shareholder bullshit since this is EA we're talking about.

It's frustrating because sometimes there is nuance to language that doesn't have a direct 1:1 translation, or to convey the same meaning you need to change it or else the audience isn't going to understand.

But modern localists use this as springboard to justify their adlibs and fanfiction they are inserting into what is otherwise perfectly fine dialogue, so fuck.

One might argue that it's necessary to have a human appointed for translation and localization, but they have burned through all good will and gone mask off on how SPITEFUL they are about the projects handed to them.

Yuzu shat the bed by putting things behind a Patreon paywall. That's why Nintendo went gunning for them.

If you want Nintendo to come a-knockin', make money off of your piracy.

It pertains to more than race, but it's actually a rising field of medicine to use your DNA to better understand and customize what treatments will work best for you. Drugs that might work well for one person might not work as well as another person, etc.

People REALLY don't like the fact that some people are just bad eggs.

That she's daddy little SS agent doesn't make her abused. You might as well claim Ozai is just a victim of abuse because he grew up in the same way.

It depends on the condition. Like, a guy might have sperm that don't swim but the DNA is fine. Or there could be a lack of chemotaxis due to something going with the sperm or the woman's body, so the sperm will be unable to hone in on the egg's location. There are a variety of ways a couple can have difficulty conceiving that IUI won't be able to help, but IUI is less invasive and less expensive than IVF so it's a good idea for people know their options before resorting to IVF.

IVF is a last resort, not to mention often people have to save up to afford the tens of thousands it can cost, so the demographic is going to naturally swing older. A quick checks say a bit less than half of women are under 35, and about half are 35-40, and rarely are there women past that giving birth.

The actual biological process of fertilizing an egg fails to produce a viable zygote a lot of the time. Fertilization happens but it immediately dies after. You just don't hear about it because there is no external way for a woman to know, but this is what is happening when you have anyone who has been trying to get pregnant for more than a couple months and the man isn't shooting blanks.

At the same time, successfully capturing an oocyte (egg) is difficult and harsh on the woman's body. So to ensure success, they usually harvest multiple eggs at the same time. The eggs get fertilized and they get screened for issues, and implantation involves a couple of the "best" eggs that are most likely to survive, and even then it's common for all but one to fail (even though it's still more common than in nature for multiple to survive, hence why IVF pregnancies have a relatively high rate of twins or more).

So you often end up with extras that are never going to be implanted in a uterus. There are a few choices to deal with them. 1. With parental consent, the fertilized eggs can be harvested as a source for stem cells. 2. The eggs are destroyed. 3. The eggs are permanently frozen.

Not really. They used a small sample size (16 women with GID group, 17 in control group). That roughly 50% of the GID mothers had some psychopathic disorder or depression does not explain what is going on with the other half. And as someone else already said, whether this is some nature vs nurture thing and if women with these disorders are more likely to give birth to mentally ill sons as well.

This is one of those studies that really need follow up studies.

I don't know how you can shame the herbivores for liking anime more than people, it's kind of a definition that they've already crossed the shame rubicon and have given up having a relationship with another human.

The need to adapt videogames into movies is driven by the belief that videogames are not "legitimate". You have to process a videogame into a format the average normie can understand.

This is also why videogames that are the most like movies often get praised the most for being "art" (see: The Last of Us). They've taken the videogame, cut it up into little pieces for you and practically chew it for you to ensure it's the easiest thing to digest.

I suspect after The Last of Us's show success, which itself got heaps of praise for being such a good adaptation when it is arguably one of the easiest things to do, more studios have been prowling around searching for videogame IPs to adapt. Especially with the superhero genre cooling off. Try to make videogame adaptations the hit new thing instead of comic books. On the animation side of things, the Super Mario Bros. movie has definitely got people to line up more animated videogame movies.

Historically there have been cultures that have practiced 'moral' cannibalism in the form of funeral feasts, and relatives eating the body of the deceased was considered the way to honor a person.

However, it does not change the fact that eating a human body is a really easy way to transfer diseases because there is no species barrier. Those funeral feast cultures have faced having to stop due to someone getting sick and dying, and the others getting infected by consuming their body, and the cycle is repeated.

But outside of that, there is just not a need to allow cannibalism. Donating your body to science helps humanity in some way or another. Donating your body to be eaten helps no one but fucked up creeps who want to eat a person.

The character is a shapeshifter. She doesn't actually spout gender identity bullshit, she's just making shapeshifter jokes.

The manga is called Moriarty the Patriot. It's some "askshully what if Moriarty was the good guy" and grafts James Bond fanfiction onto the Sherlock Holmes fanfiction. It pretty much gives no fucks about canon and yes, it's saying the character is trans.
