Unless there's been some sizeable racebending going on in the remake, this would be par the course and a nothingburger. Original Oblivion had a sizeable number of Redguard NPCs and it takes place in Cyrodiil, the most cosmopolitan country in the empire. They only comprise of about 8% of the total NPC population of the original game (roughly even with most of the non-Imperial races) and interestingly enough,the city where they have the greatest population density is Anvil. Which makes sense lorewise. Anvil is a coastal city that's very close to Hammerfell and hence sees a lot of Redguard commerce and influence.
Same reason it appears everywhere. It's a flex, pure and simple. They need to put their flag on everything to mark it as conquered territory, and anyone who asks or attempts to have it removed is an enemy who must be eliminated.
Good on the cartoon showing Austin and his brother and not their cuck father.
It might just be the lighting, but I find most of the armor sets to look like ass in the remake regardless of what sex they're for. The remake's more muted color scheme means they don't visually pop nearly as well as they did in the original. But others just have outright unneeded design changes that were for the worst
Depends on on what men are holding those guns and how they're holding them. A pair of uniformed soldiers, armed guards, militia men, or just some regular guys holding their rifles at the ready? That's good, means the place has men ready to keep everything safe and secure from threats both within and without. Two black or Hispanic men holding their handguns sideways while wearing do-rags and pants pulled down to their knees? That's really bad; means there's a a criminal element being allowed to run free.
Unfortunately, we all know these types NEVER refer to the latter. They want us to think those types of gun owners don't exist, and that it's the former who are responsible for all crimes in the country.
Normies who have to justify their subscriptions to all these shitty streaming services because they can't imagine a better way to use their free time, and who DREAD missing out on any conversations that may spring up from whichever show turns into the next big thing.
And just like that, you're overpaying thousands, and you don’t even know it. Because the people who could tell you the truth—don’t. And the people who would tell you the truth—get banned from board game groups and cancelled from the industry for wrongthink.
This would be absolutely karmic. The wokeness infecting the board game industry leading to its collapse all because everyone involved with it fired, banned, and censored the business-savvy people who actually knew how tariffs worked and could have informed them when they dropped. Whether that be the right-wing guys on their payrolls, or the regular users on BGG.
"Diversity is strength" is true...but only in terms of skills and knowledge, which the people who preach that useless platitude never practice.
If she hasn't divorced him yet and taken full custody of their surviving son (not that it means much at this age), she better right now. It would be a rare case where it'd be fully justified.
He's secretly happy Austin's dead. Now he doesn't need to pay for his college "education." It's not like he was ever his real son anyway...
Unfortunately, women just decide to blame "all men" for the dangers they face and enact legislation, standards, and classes punishing them as a whole, but singling out those they accuse of having all the privilege (i.e. straight white men) and come on them down the hardest. Oftentimes going so far as to equate flirting, regular talking, and explaining with rape, assault, and murder. Meanwhile, the various shades of brown who are actually responsible for all the real rapes, assaults and murders in the country are conveniently ignored and allowed to run rampant.
I was referring to the two arcade games, plus the more recent one released on everything.
After watching the video...yeah, she feels REALLY unsafe there. I can hear the terrified quivering in her voice. /s
He would have likely been out of her face quickly if she just answered the simple question professionally. But she made a big goddamn deal out of it, turning the whole thing into an argument and mudslinging match. In fact, for such a terrified woman demanding that all men must walk away, she sure is doing everything she can to keep him in her face and goad him into a real fight.
"Women are strong. They don't need men to help and protect them."
"Real men protect women."
PICK. FUCKING. ONE.
Well, you could argue it did compared to Daggerfall. But of course, that still wouldn't explain why he liked Oblivion.
Depends on what you're looking for, and how much jank you're willing to tolerate. Morrowind in general has a lot more freedom than both Oblivion and Skyrim, namely in that you can kill any NPC you want. No one is rendered invulnerable like they are in present day Bethesda games, including characters that are part of quests. There are no quest markers either; you have to find everything yourself, oftentimes relying on directions to navigate your way around. Your stats also mattered; various factions like the Fighters, Mages, and Thieves Guilds wanted people with sufficient skills related to their eponymous specialties. If you weren't up to par, they wouldn't accept you into their ranks, and they expected you to level up the right skills to qualify for promotion. So some big dumb, axe-wielding brute who never cast a spell in his life couldn't ever get into the Mage's Guild in Morrowind like he could in Oblivion and Skyrim.
You could also get booted out of a faction permanently or barred from ever being able to enter it in the first place depending on what things you did, which cut you out of whole questlines. Even the main quest could be rendered impossible to complete if you did the wrong thing or killed the wrong person. And there were ways to screw yourself further that made total sense in the world. Getting a bounty of more than 5000 septims would permanently mark you as kill on sight by all guards on the island. Being caught turning into a werewolf would make EVERYONE hostile to you. And turning into a vampire, while not necessarily game-ending, would still bar the majority of the game's content from you until you got it cured, since no one wants anything to do with a bloodsucker.
Reasons like these are why Morrowind is loved and respected by RPGamers. In many way, it does emulate the feel of a tabletop RPG. It's open enough to make you feel like you can play any kind of character you want. You can even go off the rails from what the DM had planned at the cost of him getting back at you by rendering the current campaign unwinnable with your current character.
But as I said, the game is janky as hell. And slow-paced. And its assorted systems just aren't very fun. Which is why it aged poorly for me and why I personally can't stand to play it anymore.
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. It consists of the original, its sequel, Turtles in Time, and I guess you could consider the recent Shredder's Revenge as part of it as well (it IS a spiritual successor).
The Simpsons (the arcade game from the 90s)
River City Ransom series.
Considering how little hype this was given, I'm inclined to think no, or at least Bethesda and Microsoft don't think it does. It feels like it's more of an attempt appease Skyrim fans who are wondering where the hell TES VI is and hopefully hook in some nostalgiafags as well.
Yeah, right, like he would ever get up from his chair.
Of course he was. He was up all night thinking about it while his wife fucked Tyrone in their bed.
Another case of too many predators and not enough herbivores. Though unlike a lot of devs, who by and large are focused more on filling their worlds up with enemies for the player to kill, I can't help but wonder if Naughty Dog is so cynical they seriously believe most of humanity will turn to banditry in a post-apocalyptic scenario despite the logistical issues it presents.
And this fungus that's supposed to be 100% lethal? You fight zombies that attack you with spore bombs. You walk or fall into spore clouds.
It's fine, though! You always put on a mask whenever you go into spore-infested areas.
Geez, another retarded leftist belief that this game would predict!
Speaking of which, if cordyceps were able to wipe out most of humanity, then the world by and large should be uninhabitable for them. Most of humanity should have been turned into hosts for these mushrooms, which means there should be entire forests of them belching more of their toxic spores into the air, especially in the former metropolitan areas. We're talking more than there ever were when the apocalypse happened! What remains of humanity should have been driven underground, into specially-built settlements designed to keep the spores out, or into regions where the spores can't go. Instead, most humans are still living in the ruins of cities and major population centers, even though those would be the most heavily impacted by the cordyceps, the other cities are just overgrown ruins that humans can wander around just fine in, the wilderness is mostly untouched aside from the occasional infected milling around, and the spore-infested areas you find are in freaking underground tunnels or ruined building interiors!
Did ANYONE at Naughty Dog take a moment to seriously think about this setting?! The more flaws I find in TLoU world, the more I think they originally envisioned a typical zombie setting, but just threw in the evil magic mushrooms at the last minute.
On the other hand I heard people say it’s good overall
Yeah, normies who are glued to their TVs who think any slop involving people hugging each other tearfully while sad music plays in between acts of moral "ambiguity" qualifies as good, dramatic storytelling.
They did it. They finally made audiences root for Abby!
Bet this person also says: "Real Communism hasn't been done yet."
And still obsessing over the relationships they demand all the middle school-aged wizards should be in from a book they read in their childhood (or worse, college years).
Well, I can't comment any further on the racial demographics of the remake, since I don't have it (and never will). But concerning the additional voices, the original game was indeed lacking in diversity of them by the proper definition of the world (not the corrupted version of it that we commonly see today), which is what the AI may have meant. All the beast races shared the same two voices, one for the males, one for the females. As did the Nords and Orcs. As did every freaking elf. It resulted in a lot of samey-feeling characters and mediocre acting overall. Only Wes Johnson, who voiced the Imperial males, made an effort to give a unique voice to the more major characters under his umbrella, like Lucien Lachance and Sheogorath. So trying to diversify them by replacing some of them with new voice actors should be benign. But then, I don't know who these new actors are; for all I know, they may indeed be a bunch of DEI hires.
