>implying I shill for liberals that still want to operate within a capitalist system
hohoho
That's literally what the current policy of the Democratic party is.
Cindo isn't a shill for the Democratic party though. In fact I think she falls more down the line of Libertarian. Last I checked, she was insanely liberal on social issues but fiscally a bit more conservative.
i don't think you can be fiscally conservative yet be critical of capitalism
True. I'll ask her whenever she's up.

Also just calling someone a shill on something like politics when it comes to parties is retarded and shooting for the bottom of the barrel.
I wasn't accusing anyone of shilling myself, I'm just saying neoliberals dominate the current democrat party.
I know you weren't. It was more at the other guy/in general

It has been hilariously Japanese at times
I actually have the game for Xbox but don't know if I'll play it partially because of this. Never really played FF before so I might as well, but eh... This thread gives me hope at least.
There are better Final Fantasies to try if you want to.

Her immigration policies were handled poorly, but she's still popular due to her other works.
Merkel is a figure of moderate, centrist stability.
Even though AfD are no Nazis, right-wing populism doesn't evoke positive emotions in most Germans.
Gee I wonder why lol

You know what the Mongols brought?
nomadic peoples do tend to make the best empires
They tend to be the best conquerors. Shit at maintaining an empire though.

Oh look, the largest continuous landmass empire in the wo- and it's gone.
Romans and British were better
Uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Sorry KIDDO but did the romans or the british expand language, culture, religion, currency, and technology across the entire eurasian continent?
Didn't THINK so, buddy
The Romans didn't in terms of language, but they both did in terms of culture, currency, and technology across most of Europe. British obviously expanded their culture and language to the New World.

I'd play it if I had a PS4, but yeah I can't. The combat looks somewhat interesting, but eh, I miss the old turn based.

Idk how Medieval Europe even dealt with minorities
The same way 99% of the world dealt with minorities in that era
Enslave them or kill them
ie deus vult
Oh right, the Crusades were a thing. And Jews. Duh.

Like, on some real tho, y'all niggas sound like White Man's Burden in here
and extremely few have adopted ethnic tolerance as a value as quickly or as thoroughly as Europeans.
White man's burden has colonial implications.
I'm trying to think back. Like way back, and compare, and what you say might have some value behind it. Yet all I can really think of when going further back is Europeans kinda committing genocide on peoples where they've settled at. Idk how Medieval Europe even dealt with minorities, and obviously if you go further east their history is far more ancient.

I would hope our generation wouldn't think all minorities are enemies in the first place, given the diverse places we've grown up and the people we've dealt with.
Obviously racial tensions will always exist, but I would sincerely hope no one here actually legit groups up all blacks, mexicans, etc, and casts a wide net saying they all act one way.

Obama's Presidency has been fucking awful
That's the running phrase with any president currently in power. I disagree, but you can't tell a presidents legacy until well after they're out of office. We're only recently dealing with Bush's fuck ups.

Have you ever seen the way minorities are treated in East Asian cultures? Have you heard the way black people talk about pretty much every other ethnic group including blacks of a different shade?
It's like we're completely ignoring the 250 years of suffering they had in our country. Same with other minorities like the Irish, Chinese, etc. As if them talking down a bit about whites suddenly invalidates everything else that goes the other way. It's like white people have the shortest memories and they have never done any wrong.

If I'm on the fence about something, then yeah I could say they do (though I look at other review vids as well. Did that with Stardew Valley). And usually when a game is "overwhelmingly positive" on steam, it's actually a very good game and something to consider trying.

Regardless of if people think Russia hacked or not, things like this are long overdue from the shit they've pulled in Europe. Too bad it took Obama until one month left to do something, but I guess he needed his pseudo casus belli.
Let's just hope the sanctions already previously in place don't come down. I'm hoping Trumps generals are gonna tell him to not do such a thing.

I thought for sure Merkel wasn't as popular as this article states and that most of Germany didn't want her running again.
Not that she would listen to them anyways, she's got a proud white country to destroy.
Her immigration policies were handled poorly, but she's still popular due to her other works.

He won because of his hard stance on immigration, White people know minorities tend to be treated like shit hence they do not want to become one.
No president can stop the demographic change in the US. I think by like 2050 it will be vastly different than it already is at the moment.

With what we got as Fallout 4 Bethesda is probs going to give us the same formula for the next ES. Which is sad of course.
Nah, they've openly admitted to some faults with FO4, like the voice acting.
I don't know tbh it really depends on what direction Bethesda wants to take their games, maybe they misread consumer data. I wanted to write about how Bethesda took a more casual approach to Fallout 4 to appeal to a larger audience but looking at sales data other than Fallout 1 & 2 their other games all hit 10mil plus so I don't understand their rationale if they were going for a 'more casual more sales' approach.
My impression is that they're just lazy and don't want to put in the work necessary for games with as much depth as Morrowind or Oblivion, when they can make a shitload peddling shit like Fallout 4.
That's not it at all. They easily put effort into the games and care, but they know that making it more casual = more sales. Morrowind wouldn't appeal nearly as much to the masses as Skyrim would for that very reason. The mechanics would frustrate the casual player, and that's what they are targeting. Get epic music and a nice scenery, and nothing INSANELY in depth, and you have it. It's the way a lot of games go. $$$ is what drives the industry, regardless of how much we want to say it's an art.

People we grew up watching or hearing are old. They're going to die.
2015 was the same way, only with movie/musical stars that we didn't really know or have much of an impact on us. For our parents more so, yeah.

I feel for her mother. That's a parent's worst nightmare to bury their kid. Even if her daughter was 53. We're supposed to die before our kids.
Her daughter was 60

Doesn't the grail just make a copy?
His instructions were for if he lost the war. Why would he give his daughter the servant he lost with?
Also, Gil currently lives outside of the natural rules of the game, seeing as he was a living being for those ten years and didn't disappear back in to the void like Saber at the end of the 4th war.
The Gil summoned in the 4th war was a copy of Gils record in the throne of heroes. But Gil was granted true incarnation at the end of the 4th war and therefore is an actual living being in the 5th.
We will never get Fate/Extra CCC translated and have the Gil closest to his real self. Kill me.
either learn nip or wait for the iwakara translation
i think i'm about half way through CCC right now, it's pretty good
Hold the phone, 2 things
1. You know Moon Runes?
2. They're translating it?
i took a bit of japanese and i still have my text books to do self study out of, not really great at it though as my understanding is basically that of a retarded kindergartners so i need to keep dictionaries by me at all times if im going to try and read something
iawakara started their fan translation last year so maybe expect it sometime either this year or next
Oh that's pretty cool of you.
And I assume Iawakara is fast at it then? I remember the translation going suuuuuuuuper slow.
It's been a year and they're still at it. Expect it either in 2017 or 2018. Last update just confirmed that they're still working on it but no release was given. Don't know if I'd call that fast as a professional group could have it done in a couple months.
True, but sadly they will never translate and give us Fate stuff. No idea why...

An example of weirdness would be Metal Gear Acid 2.
would it be a kojima game if it wasnt weird
Kojima actually had nothing to do with those. They're non canon.

Darth Vader isn't Anakin Skywalker. He's way cooler and far more badass.
Nice meme, too bad it isn't canon.
Vader's were more theatrical, dramatic. You got the sense that Vader has an appreciation for the dramatic and has a tendency for theatrics.
You don't say.
It's not a meme, Vader and Anakin are two distinct personalities. I would have expected a huge Star Wars fan like yourself to have caught on to that.
In regards to Vader's tendency towards theatrics; I said it, didn't I?
That's not what the PT, TCW, or the OT say. The only person who said anything remotely like that was Obi-wan, when he was LYING to Luke, and Kylo Ren.
"Anakin Skywalker was weak, so I destroyed him" - Vader in Rebels
And then less than 2 minutes later, Vader was calling out to and hesitant about killing Ahsoka. Anakin and Vader are the same.
"I don't fear you." 'Then you will die braver than most.' That has to be one of the most badass lines I've ever heard.

by the time i actually watch an anime and love it, everyone in the world will decide that they all hate anime now
What would constitute a good anime for you?
Anything that doesn't have fanservice, or the generic anime settings (like highshcool) you run across would be the first thing to make him even consider it.
i remember you recommending me spice & wolf awhile back, which i still haven't done
but was there any particular reason, or do you just like the show
Just something a bit different and the medieval setting might be nice for ya. Story is pretty decent, and the romance isn't your generic thing. Idk, you probably wouldn't like it, I was just trying to think of something a bit off pace.
