If that's the case, then allow me to simply adjust my stance: Only America makes good anime.

Yeah, Cory in the House is pretty good.

update your fucking meme database

there is no better meme at the moment

I finished Mass Effect 2 and I just noticed that the game has a orange hue to it. It's not annoying or anything but its just very noticeable and I can't believe it took me this long to see that. However for a game that came out in very early 2010, overall it still looks pretty damn good.

It's also the last game where the composer was outstanding. Music was okay in ME3, but the only standouts were the slower toned piano themes and what not.

Composer for ME1/2 is amazing.

Sorry to say, but I think the Mass Effect magic we all felt honestly left with 3. I don't think Andromeda is gonna hit the right tones, but I could be wrong. The art direction being so wonky though is a red flag for me.

CNN is flipping shit they're not allowed in the press room. Other reliable news sources still were such as ABC, NBC, BBC, WSJ etc.

The headline just makes it sound like he ended the First Amendment. Another example of the "sky is falling" thing I mentioned yesterday.

To be fair, CNN really did tip their hand to obvious bias this past election.

Again, that isn't what happened.

What happened?

Don't nuke them yet, we need the NCR.

I never understand the appeal and public joy in finding such discoveries.

it reinforces the fact we may not be alone in the universe and we can explore new places in space. but i also partially blame nasa for blowing things out of proportion like they did with the mars "discovery" a while back

I mean, is it really a surprise anymore that there are other planets with a similar size and such as Earth? It was cool the first half a dozen times, now it's no more surprising of a discovery than some new fish in the ocean.

Let me know when we actually find something new or get people onto another planet though.

It's more so the fact it is so close. Only 40 light years away. That's basically in our own backyard. It'll allow us to study these planets and see things such as that, and though we speculate through pure statistics that life has to exist on other planets, it's an entirely different factor when you actually have concrete evidence it, along with water on said planets, exists.

I should make a review thread of this game, because I know I easily could, but here is my quick thoughts on something. Keep in mind this is just gameplay from a balancing standpoint. I haven't even began to touch the shitty servers.

I feel like a lot of my gripes would be eased if there was just a 4v4 gamemode without all this gear stacking shit.

There would still be issues, but not nearly as much. I'm really getting an Assassins Creed tier balancing issue feeling going here. If anyone doesn't know, the playing field is completely skewed in favor of a higher leveled player in AC where they can use abilities or build up abilities that just make it much easier to fuck people over, and even shoot them from across the map.

This game is doing the exact same thing. I was doing a 4v4 tonight by myself and a guy joked his "bomb build" was fucking stupidly OP and apologized in advance (we were all just chilled out, no salt), and literally every 20 seconds, he was calling in artillery.

HOW in the fuck is that fair? If this is a fighting game, what is the point when you can spam things like that or just completely remove the core aspect of the game? That is my fucking issue. Would Soul Caliber be fair if someone could just randomly hit 1 button and make you nigh invincible and hit 2 times for a kill? No, you have to play within the confines of the game which gives people an equal playing field. You lose because of your skill or lack thereof (or someone cheesing one move).

1v1 has no gear levels to keep it fair

2v2 has no gear levels to keep it fair

nothing else does, and it's retarded. Not even an option to.

I should also note in the closed beta, my friend pointed out he feared it'd be like Assassins Creed, and I kinda downplayed it saying I think it'll be more balanced. I can say now that he was right to be concerned, and if they don't balance things soon and fix a lot of issues, the player base is going to drop off drastically.

I have no idea what she looks like but even if she was a qt, I repeat: not worth the hate-fuck.

Oh come on, you totally would.

It's more of a meme fuck

Let's also not forget that Project Veritas just dropped a tactical nuke on CNN with over 119 hours of leaked footage.

That audio that had nothing of interest?

There's 119 hours of footage, there's guaranteed to be something in there.

Good luck shifting through all that crap. Let me know if anyone finds anything worth talking about.

Are you honestly this big of an idiot?

I love how there's video evidence off cutoffs happening just to show it's not a coincidence but you fuckers still deny it lmao

I don't deny it. CNN is pretty shitty and tipped their hand this past election, but in terms of stuff outside US politics (the same with Fox News too honestly when, which is odd), they're pretty solid. I go to places like BBC and NPR when I actually want some info on politics.

The main ones anyway. I'm all over the place with news sites now a days that really, that just getting the collective mass of information that is consistent across all platforms is the best key for it.

Good points. Illustrates the problem we're looking at with echo chambers and confirmation bias very well. People tend to trust only what they want to hear and it's really fucking depressing. Wherever we're heading with all this, it really isn't anywhere good. The current state of news and social media is giving way too many idiots way too much leeway and power.

That's the problem with the internet. It gives every idiot a voice.

I dunno, the government might be crazy enough to take someone with them before they collapse.

But even China is really getting sick of their shit, because South Korea and China have a pretty great trading relationship and both have a common agreement that they're not too fond of Japan (of course China loathes them. Korea is more so annoyed with them).

So China is in this awkward position of supporting a nation that's the key enemy of South Korea... while also having a rather nice relationship with South Korea (though that's been strained last year due to the missile defense thing from the US)

Maybe the game is just truly that shitty with its meme writing

The Witcher 3 is also misogynistic for noting women get raped in war times and weren't on equal footing in Medieval times.

oh and tits

if your dick gets hard, you're going to hell

I should note I was posting this ironically.

The Knights need to man up as a faction. Every time we start gaining traction on territories the next update has the weebs and the vikangz dominating us.

Pray to Christ for our salvation brothers. Deus vult.

iirc it's the least populated faction so it has the worst timezone coverage

If that's the case, it's all the more impressive that they won the beta.
