I got all of them right, but the score is arbitrary.

Probably Starcraft.
I really enjoyed EndWar, too, but I'm not sure that's considered 'strategy'.
Civ 5 was pretty fun for me but I wish it was faster-paced. Even on the quickest setting it's felt extremely slow, and I always end up winning by domination because waiting for the space shuttle is grueling.

Doesn't that refer to rural areas where fresh produce and healthy food aren't available?
It's barely legitimate. Obesity is fundamentally about an excess in calories, not a deficit of nutrients. You could eat McDonald's every day and lose weight if you maintained a caloric deficit.

It's hard to get your head in the game when everyone around you is literally criticizing you and telling you you're just riding on the coat tails of others but that you HAVE to do it anyways. And that every mistake you make is going to make things worse and worse for the rest of your life.
Talking about Zack Snyder? He's been making comic adaptations for many years now. They're all mediocre and at best are entertaining action flicks. He was a really terrible choice to spearhead the DCCU. David Ayer's done some decent work recently (End of Watch and Fury), so there's a glimmer of hope for SS.

people in the navy aren't allowed to jerk off? is that why they fuck each other?
That's just icing on the cake, baby. Spoiler But seriously, it's fine to have porn on personal computers or tablets, but not stored on any ship or office computer.

If we allowed companies to reconsolidate, and then broke them down again
Why on Earth would any company cooperate with this when there's already a mad dash for inversions and regulation avoidance in the U.S.?

Tobuscus is cancer, but publicizing these allegations seems like slander.

You're inserting them into data ports. You're not just stabbing them in the foot, and that takes over them. I fail to see the absurdity in such a design.
Nothing's absurd about it. They made it fit into the gameplay cleverly; you're dismissing that same possibility here because of two seconds of CGI. Maybe it's stabbed into the ground and releases an EMP effect; maybe it functions like a huge data knife and disables shields.
1. Why does it need to be a giant sword?
2. How would a data knife disable shields?
It doesn't even look like a sword, just a big blade. Swords don't have serrated edges on the back like this one.
How does it disable shields? I don't know man, we've only seen it here. Doesn't take too much of a stretch of the imagination to figure out how knife + electricity = damage.
The Data Knife isn't an electric knife. If it was an electric knife, it'd be called an electric knife.
Bruh We're talking about the titan knife, though the data knife is obviously electronic. Steps: 1. Apply sharp end to enemy titan 2. Repeat Not that complicated.

This is a game where you hack robots by stabbing them with a knife.
You act as though that's as unrealistic as giant robots carrying medieval-era weaponry into battle when they have missiles, energy weapons, and tank cannons as rifles.
The Data Knife is at least a multitool capable of interfacing with contemporary technology in a clever mash up of two concepts.
And for all we know the sword delivers an EMP or some shit. The point is that the game has already demonstrated clever uses for unconventional technology.
Unconventional technology? It's standard human sci-fi tech.
...Knives that hack stuff when you stab them into things? God forbid the game try to do something beyond "standard human sci-fi [technology]".

List horror movies in which the protagonist(s) would be able to quickly save themselves by having access to a gun.
I'm watching Hush right now, and it's a great movie, but it's just silly for someone to live in the remote woods without a means of protection.
The Purge movies are the first that come to mind.

I've met Rocket before. He showed up late so I got drunk and we had a fun time at a dueling piano bar.
Anyone around Norfolk should hit me up when I move there in a few months.

Can anyone clarify the hollowing mechanic?
Ember = humanity
Lord of Cinder = human
But hollowing is still there as some sort of stacking thing that can be traded for free levels and then permanently cured, but that doesn't really make sense to me.
I'm also hoping for some more varied environments. I love the Demon Ruins/Lost Izalith from DkS1, but I haven't seen anything like that yet.

tell me again why ads are so good for us.
Free access to web content.
>having to get bombarded with huge and intrusive ads that shouldnt be expanding on their own or after you hover over them
Taking a couple seconds to click the large X in the corner is way better than having to subscribe to read their content. Forbes has some of the worst ads in the industry, though. ——> everywhere that I go that I don't have adblock enabled spams me with adverts for their website.
That kind of shit has to go.

I don't like his policies but everyone is quick to point out how ineffectual presidents are in making real policy, and there's no way I'd vote for Trump (or even Cruz).
At that point your might as well throw your vote at the Libertarians.
I meant in the general election. Or I'll just abstain from this election.

Just watched it again last night, and I'm really not seeing Rey as an unbelievable Mary Sue. She fails several times throughout the movie. When she first fires up the Millenium Falcon, she's really not very good at flying it, and only survives because she's presumably worked on it for a good part of her life (meaning she knows the layout and has probably fantasized about or actually flown through it), and has Finn telling her how to avoid the TIEs. She uses the crashed Star Destroyer as cover, which she's scoured for parts her entire life, and even then doesn't manage to lose the two TIE, getting hit numerous times in the process. Later on in the forest (can't remember the name of the planet), she's easily incapacitated by Ren and exposes that she's seen the map; later in the interrogation scene, she's able to resist Ren largely because of how unstable and emotional he is. And finally, when they're fighting outside Starkiller Base and Rey is suddenly able to beat Ren back for a couple seconds, it's in the context of Ren being severely injured in several places and holding back because he wants her as an apprentice. She doesn't win the fight; the ground magically separates the two because the plot demanded it.
Each time she's demonstrates unbelievable abilities, it's because of her dynamic with the other character in the scene; first it's with Finn, and later it's with Ren. She obviously has plenty of flaws. She's standoffish, insecure, undisciplined, angry, and unwilling to come to grips with the reality of being an orphan. Nothing I say can change an opinion that's she uninteresting, but I can't see how anyone could say she's less compelling than Leia.
On a different note, Poe's plothole really stood out. He just managed to escape somehow? It'd be really interesting if he ended up becoming indoctrinated by the First Order and is some sort of sleeper agent now.

Fuck, I knew it but I didn't want to say anything because it seemed really disrespectful to call you out, and I'd feel like an ass if you had miraculously beaten the remaining 95% of the game in one glorious weekend.
Well played.

It's kind of weird that they seem to be repeating the cast of a white female outsider partnered with a black ex-Stormtrooper (just speculation) and a scruffy male Rebel. Maybe they're just trying to establish a new archetype, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Really? I thought you didn't care much about the scandal.
Well, I don't, really. I just think it would be the silver bullet to her whole campaign. Wouldn't it?
Oh, an actual indictment? Yeah, no way she'd get nominated. tbh I'm feeling the Bern lately. I don't like his policies but everyone is quick to point out how ineffectual presidents are in making real policy, and there's no way I'd vote for Trump (or even Cruz).

I'm gonna be utterly ecstatic if she's indicted.
