Is it a big commercial failure? I noped out of the series after seeing the direction they went with Inquisition, but I haven't really seen any negative press about it. Kinda seems like the article's just trying to stir up some shit

They're just more people who've fallen victim to a well-funded propaganda campaign. Not much different than trumpets—in fact, they share many talking points! Amusingly, both groups would be offended by the comparison.

I'd hazard a guess that they were referring to the "targeted killing of ethnic Russians" made up shit. That's just a Kremlin talking point. Shades of Operation Himmler. I don't suppose you can cite any reputable sources for it?

Yeah, I tried Black Flag a while back—because I'd heard good things—but just couldn't be bothered with all the busy work. I did really enjoy Mafia 3, The Witcher 3, RDR2; I'm not anti-side quest by any means. I think I need a more compelling story, and that's never been AC's strong point (based on ~3 AC games I've picked up and quickly dropped over the years).

People are saying it. Many great people.

I mean, what else are you gonna wind a piece of string around?

I think 75% is far too generous an estimate, tbh. Every policy I've acquired through the ACA-mandated marketplace has been garbage, right from the start. For-profit health care is evil, and the ACA just served to further entrench this evil in our lives. It did some marginal good, and I'm certainly not advocating for its repeal in favor of 'concepts of a plan'. But 75%? I can't get on board with that.

This is something I do, so I'll take a crack at it—though, bear in mind, it might be total bullshit.

It's a defense mechanism. Many popular things are—in my estimation—objectively terrible. Every time something utterly devoid of merit (and often actively detrimental to the public good) is generally agreed to be a popular sensation, the connection I feel to my fellow human beings takes a hit.

I want to believe in people—in society. But I'm clearly a judgmental sob. So maybe by avoiding the popular things, I'm trying not to further my own alienation.

The headline is a little ambiguous, but he didn't give in; they relaxed the dress code.

Top 12 by play time. Definitely wouldn't have guessed some of these were up there. I'll often leave a game running while doing something else, which skews the results. I'll have to check what gog galaxy says later.

Can we rule out some kind of transporter accident? Has anyone checked to see if his beard comes off?

I listen to 'I Ain't Marching Anymore' pretty frequently, but am not familiar with most of his catalogue. I'll check it out!
