Sorry, lad. I know that not everybody here shares my political views. So I just tried to generate an alternative OP image, that had Nigel Farage flying in to save the UK from the Muslims and woke people, but it declined. 😔

I have done it. I am wearing a winchester shirt with cufflinks today.
Maybe I look like a bit of a twat, but I think that I look like I'm gonna maximise shareholder value today. 😎
Also, fun bit of trivia, the Winchester that winchester shirts are named for it Oliver Winchester, as in the guy the winchester rifle is named after. Before he got into gun making, he had a company that made clothes.

Yesterday I discovered in my fridge an onion and a pepper from June, and a few chilli peppers that had Mid-July on them. I also had a firecracker curry sauce that had May BBD. So I decided to make spicy spicy chilli with some out of date frozen beef.
It was delicious! However it upset my tummy because it was so spicy. Today I also ate some fried halloumi and the oil didn't agree with the spicy spicy chilli. I had a case of Sudden Onset Explosive Diarrhoea at the office, it was really awful and got all over my hands and in my hair.

Man, Ghost Recon: Breakpoint is going for peanuts on Steam, right now. Usually I find Ubisoft open world games to be a little bland and soulless, but in the short term they can be pretty fun. Customising a lone soldier and then sneaking around knocking down enemy bases is fun in small bursts.

I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the fuck out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my fucking words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, fucker. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re fucking dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your fucking tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re fucking dead, kiddo

oh this kickstarter happened in 2012, it's running on fumes now. and i'm not a writer, i'm just a junior dev. i have no say. but shockingly, characters writing bad fanfiction of each other, having the worst rap-offs in history, and getting sloshed and running a shtick into the ground are all core pillars of the writing, so who knows. maybe it's a monkeys on typewriters thing, convergently evolving minichan references through similar conditions.

Skyrim should be on mine. But, like, I've played that thing across different editions, and played it on the Xbox when I was a kid.
It's one of those games, like Kenshi, that I just get the urge to play ever year or so. A timelsss masterpiece. 😌

I might get some flack for this, but I don't think the old Fallouts have aged very well. Not because they're isometric RPGs, but because they are clunky 90s isometric RPGs. I think that if you grew up with them then you probably don't notice it so much, but I didn't and when I tried them I bounced off of them.
Fallout is probably never gonna go back to the kind of gameplay, but there's been a few spiritual successors to Fallouts 1 and 2, and I think they've been pretty well-liked.

i don't disagree but i think they're worth playing regardless, i think a lot of the systems are still really fun and the stories compelling. the brotherhood in fallout 1 is still one of my favorite things ever, rivaled only perhaps by the brotherhood in new vegas.

Fuck. EA just shut down BioWare, canned the next Mass Effect too. One of the all-time greats of RPG game studios, gone. ☹️
At this point it almost feels like the kind thing to do, considering BioWare's output lately, but I can't help but mostly blame EA for this, still. If BioWare had not had sabotaging executives ordering them to make live service games, then BioWare would not have wasted time with Anthem and the last Dragon Age would have had a much smoother development.
I dunno, after all these stories about the big corporations shutting down or downsizing beloved studios, I think it's best to just not to sell. Sure, business is much harder and riskier without the massive corporate resources behind you, but at least you'll be able to create on your own terms.

It did contribute. The last Dragon Age was switched from live service to single player late in development, and they had to write around that, it was harder for them to add in major decisions/consequences, because the game had been designed to be a mostly static live service world.
That said, I can't be a total BioWare defender here, a lot of it was their fault, like dumbing everything down, contradicting the previous lore, and that cringey non-binary Qunari character that even a lot of LGBT people didn't like.
The people didn't take an issue with the story beats (mostly), it was the dreadful dialogue which live service or single player would always have been terrible

people could put up with bad dialogue in a live service game, though. you generally mute a live service game and hop on voice call with friends, ignoring any dialogue that's not emboldened for your attention. people love final fantasy 14, and that game reads like if you hit your head really hard against a brick wall of shakespearean archaisms.

I am not really a person who rages about "wokeness", so this does not apply to me. Thanks.
Be grateful. Now those developers who made the games you love so much are free to work on other games, fresh games. They are no longer forced to ram your favorite franchise into the ground like an Arab on 9/11.

You what? The very minor gay character in Mass Effect 3? I think he mentions his dead husband a few times. And if you're a male Shepard then he doesn't initiate any flirting, you have to go out of your way to do it. Also you can go most of the game just ignoring him if you don't like him, he's not really that important.
If you want to complain about BioWare "shoving gayness" on you, there's much stronger cases you could have gone for. Come on, now.

By the by, companion romances and sexualities in RPGs are actually a pretty interesting topic, at least to me.
A somewhat common approach is to just make all of the characters bisexual, which from a gameplay perspective is probably the best approach as any character can be romanced by any player character, but you could also make the argument that it feels a bit too convenient and artificial, and doesn't invite any pushback from a companion.
In my opinion, BioWare had a good approach to this in Dragon Age Inquisition- have a range of companions with different sexualities, and if you're pursuing someone who's incompatible with you then they'll gently reject your advances.

Yes, he's a minor character, so they could have cut him.
If you care about exploring storylines then you will end up romancing him, and it's not much of a choice. I didn't get the game to speed run it and avoid side stories.

All CRPG romance is artificial and awkward. Games are a terrible medium to do romance in and all you're doing is ticking side quest markers to see a bad sex cut scene. It's just weird and uncomfortable and way too many cunts obsess over it. Shipping is cancer in any medium and games make it 'personal' so it's even worse.
