Are you saying that, post pandemic, people don’t commute to have meetings online?

Xenophobia propped up by political groups. Many official immigration programs existed in the 19th century that, when allowed to, had immigrants integrated into society.

10 years ago it was a common discussion on the gaming forums

The US supports this btw.

Gotta make people accept that rich dynasties owning everything is valid.

Actually From Software is pretty crappy when it comes to this sort of thing.

Cars are expensive to buy and maintain. Also I don’t think finding a parking spot and then parking is a fun activity. Also the metro can in many cases be faster, and I can use my phone while I’m in it.

Still shitty. No need to defend it just because it’s valve.

In what world is talking about Hitler’s “good points” in any way, shape or form not a gateway to try and sell the rest of his ideas?

I understand, it’s important to be price gorged locally now rather than being potentially price gorged in the future, perhaps.

Where I live it’s plastic and they are still leaky.

Sorry, don’t buy their good and cheap EVs, buy our expensive and crappy hybrids.

Wasn’t expecting mirror’s edge movement.

Is this a franchise?

The series died when they killed desmond in favor of keeping the story open for endless sequels.

“[…] imperfect victory”

What? Are they going to push some winter war narrative after this is over?

Authoritarianism is an empty label since it’s used against one’s opposing ideologies. Rarely if ever is the inherent authoritarianism of the current or any system of government acknowledged.

So you’ll be banning people that post only negative news about trump?

Am I the only one that felt like they spoiled the whole plot in the first episode? Like the twin thing could have been a big mystery but we already know what’s going on. Also we see the evil twin’s master (whoever it is), so we know it’s a Sith plot.

I’m thinking mostly from a fantasy angle. I’ll give some examples from the classes I play:

Warrior: lacks a spec focused on the defensive juggernaut fantasy that you infer from the class description. Hammer Spellbreaker kind of fits here but it’s a bit of a stretch of what a spellbreaker should be thematically. Also lacking is a commander/captain support spec, maybe something built around shouts and/or banners.

Elementalist: why is the only spec not about going in and smacking people in melee tempest? And even then the best weapon is the sword. There’s a reason newbs go in and try to make staff work as a ranged weapon.

Engineer: turret spec please.

Mesmer: maybe mirage kind of fits the core mesmer fantasy, but I’m not sure if the ambushes fit there. The other specs don’t really fit since it’s mostly about doing away with your clones.
