Im probably the only one but the music never stood out to me in Dark Souls. I was too goddamn focused on the game to notice it .-.

Majulas theme is the only one i can remember

I only like the second games DLC music so...

How do you not like Dark Souls 1 music?

Big orchestral music fan here too and I never really liked DS1's music. Compliments the game well, but I would never actually listen to the music outside of playing the game. Not my fancy, I suppose.

No idea what most of that means, but I use this one. It's good.

All of this MW2 talk is making me want to play again. I was proper good at that game m8s.

Still a terrible shame that this never caught on as the new Sep7agon banner.

Don't.

Looks pretty good, doesn't it?

Would play if free.

chavs are a dying breed slowly being replaced by cheeky nandos, ket taking, roshe run wearing, weetabix haircut bellends.

Example

These actually look more like the people I saw. They were wearing sports attire and sport shoes though.

Chavs are still a thing?

Well, they were loud and obnoxious young British folk with pretty interesting hair styles, dressed in kinds of sport attire and using primitive guttural sounds and gestures to communicate. Unless I'm wrong about what chavs are, these ones fit the bill pretty well.

Get a load of these casuals. Can't shutter the flutter.

Couldn't understand a word they were saying m8.

Yes. This has actually been a reason for the European Court of Human Rights to deny the extradition of prisoners to the US.

This still a thing?

Dragonite because fuck he's awesome and that guy has him as a pokeball around the neck and Lance uses him in the first games and he can be massive like with the lighthouse episode.

Objectively best pokemon.

I can only hope that these gun nuts curtailing progress will just be grandfathered out of existence.

It'll probably take a while before something like this happens. Gun culture is pretty deeply engrained in American society and it's pretty unlikely that this will change any time soon, unfortunately.

There's a few upsides and indicators pointing in the right direction, though. It's hard to know because the lack of precise governmental data and/or a registry, but the common idea is that American gun ownership is on a decline. While the amount of privately owned guns and gun purchases has been going up, this is almost exclusively due to a limited amount of people owning more and more guns. The general trend is that fewer people own guns, but those who do own them very often own several firearms.

A second upside is that we're getting a better insight in how gun crime works and how regulations can address this. Over the last two decades, there's been a global trend towards stricter gun control policies that have been shown to be pretty effective in other countries. The international and global legal and criminologist consensus is increasingly favoring stricter gun control measures as the preferable policy. Additionally, increasing amount of research and data is supporting this position. 20 years ago, the idea that "good guys with guns are necessary to stop bad guys with guns so more guns = less crime" was still a very popular opinion, with a lot of this stemming from Gary Kleck's infamous and faulty research. Now, however, increasing amounts of research and evidence fostered by a better understanding of how to target this problem point towards the exact opposite, and those older ideas have been largely debunked and discarded by the larger legal community.

It's still going to take a while, but gun ownership seems to be in decline and now that the internet has greatly improved the current generations access to information, it is likely that more and better research will succeed in reaching and convincing more and more people.
