  • Not a huge fan of the sets and how the bonuses work, but it’s still pretty straightforward and better than the old armor system. Everything else is great. Magazines are a little weird in a split group because we typically have one person go into loot perks, but magazines drop based on the skills of who loots the container, but it gives access to crafting recipes to people who otherwise wouldn’t have them because they were previously skill level locked.

    Have done at least one fresh run through major updates since a16 and the game has never gotten worse, in my opinion. The new pois are amazing. As well. Oh and the trader system is fixed and quest leveling overhauled, rewards improved, and progression made transparent. A little glitch in multiplayer though, last I played.









  • and all the characters moral base were so ugly their actions so contrived to ellicit a negative response

    The show holds a mirror to Republicans and corporate America, so yeah. Even then, hardly any of the characters are actually just evil. They’re a product of their environment. I won’t go into details in case someone hasn’t watched it all yet, but even the most idealistic supes were broken down by institutional rot like lies and coercion.

    I couldn’t get into it’s always sunny in Philadelphia because every character is a terrible person. But then I realized that’s the point. They all suck and they all deserve whatever horrible things happen to them (except maybe Charlie, he’s the purest of heart and dumbest of ass). Once I stopped trying to find someone to identify with and root for, the show became amazing.








  • Ah yes pointing to the completely organic resistance movements that cropped up simultaneously with Russian equipment and Russian soldiers contributing. But of course the US psyop’d 80% of the entire country to be in favor of EU membership. And the strong definitely not russian backed leader said no, I will carry on the true will of the Ukrainian people, which is to be subservient to Russia. And the people unjustly protested and got righteously shot for it. And then the totally not russian tanks rolled in.
