This is asking a lib to do material analysis, aka a complete waste of time.
I let shadowheart murder her in her sleep because fuck the racist. I’ve heard she’s a sweetheart if you give her a chance, but I don’t have time for that.
Yeah as much as Skyrim is a weak point in the Elder Scrolls saga, I still look back on it fondly. Starfield will not have this legacy.
Graebers “Debt” does a great job of deconstructing this. Econ 101 really creates so many brainworms.
Just a lazy bit, nothing to see here.
My son is 2 so it means I get to play with these and no one looks at me weird. It’s great.
One thing DA 2 did really well (though a deviation from the crpg formula) was making it feel like your companions had lives of their own. When doing their quests it felt like you were joining them on their own adventure, as opposed to just waiting in camp to follow you.
DE is probably the best modern RPG for giving you options beyond good and evil. Your build determines a ton about what your experience is, so even if you’re doing the same general choices for the game you’ll end up with a very different experience. Another big change will be you political ideology, which can be fascist, lib or commie. And on top of that you pick how you deal with your personal arc, which can be to stay drug/booze addled, clean up your act, or a few options in between.
“Evil” would probably be fascist + drugs, but there’s layers of nuance. The game is amazing and the writing is the best of the decade+. I’d give it a shot.
Yeah the US reaction to the balloon says very little about their defence policy and a whole lot about their propaganda policy and how complicit the army is in it.
I agree that it’s a bit of a stretch. What I think they’re getting at is that individualism as it’s pushed by imperialist media creates the toxic environment that fosters the cultural traits that you’re referring to.
I signed up for Netflix years ago. When they decided to make it cost more to let my parents share the sub I pulled the plug.

It's the next in the series, and Anya Taylor-Joy was brought in for a 30 second cameo in the latest one (as a character that presumably plays a bigger part later on), so yeah I think it's safe to assume they're going to keep going.
